One Piece Chapter 1148 Delayed Due to Golden Week
The One Piece manga is on hiatus this week, which may surprise fans expecting a new chapter. Typically, Eiichiro Oda takes a break every three chapters, but only two chapters have been released since his last hiatus. The reason for this break lies not with Oda but with Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine, which pauses publication for Japan’s Golden Week holiday.
Golden Week, spanning April 29 to May 5, includes four public holidays, prompting a nationwide break. This annual event halts all Jump manga, including One Piece, with no issues published on the upcoming Sunday. For Oda, this offers a chance to rest and spend time with family.
One Piece Chapter 1148 Release Date: May 11, 2025
Fans need not worry about an extended delay. Weekly Shonen Jump will resume the following week, with One Piece chapter 1148 set for release on May 11, 2025, alongside other Jump titles. The chapter will be available at 12 AM JST on Monday, May 12, translating to a daytime release on Sunday, May 11, for most international readers, though exact times vary by time zone.
Readers can access chapter 1148 on Viz Media’s website, Shueisha’s MANGAPlus platform, or the Shonen Jump+ app. Viz and MANGAPlus offer free access, while Shonen Jump+ requires a subscription for full manga access. The chapter will also appear in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 24.
Will Oda Take Another Break After Chapter 1148?
After two consecutive chapters, Oda may take a personal break following chapter 1148, as he typically doesn’t count Jump-wide hiatuses as his own. However, Oda has occasionally released three chapters post-Jump break, so fans can hope for no immediate hiatus. Stay tuned for updates as the release approaches.
