One Piece chapter 1124 confirms early September release schedule

As the release week for One Piece chapter 1124 approaches, the usual spoiler process has once again commenced. This includes the announcement of the series’ upcoming release schedule. Regrettably, renowned series leaker @pewpiece (Pew), formerly known as Twitter user, has confirmed that there will be a break week after the official release of chapter 1124.

As a result, it can be concluded that after the official release of One Piece chapter 1124 on Monday, August 26, 2024 at 12AM Japanese Standard Time (JST), the series will not resume until Monday, September 9. Nevertheless, this indicates that for most weeks in September, a new chapter will be released following Oda’s usual pattern and schedule.

One Piece Chapter 1124: No New Chapter in September 2024

Eiichiro Oda, the creator, author, and illustrator of the series, usually follows a schedule of releasing three chapters and then taking a one-week break. This means that for every three chapters he publishes, he takes a week off before starting the next set. The release of One Piece chapter 1124 follows this pattern, as the recent break in publication in August does not affect his three-on-one-off schedule.

Similarly, readers can anticipate that Oda will adhere to this schedule through September, with chapters being released on Monday the 9th, Monday the 16th, and Monday the 23rd, barring any additional breaks. These chapters will most likely mark the end of the Egghead arc, unless it is already concluded in chapter 1124 before Oda’s next scheduled break.

This aligns with Oda’s previous estimations that the Elbaf arc, which has been all but confirmed as the next arc in the series, would commence by the end of 2024. Oda may have made this estimate prematurely, as it’s possible he had anticipated needing more time to complete the Egghead storyline or had to discard planned ideas. Nevertheless, it’s evident that the Elbaf arc will soon be launching in the manga.

The anticipation for the Elbaf arc is heightened due to numerous factors, with one of the main reasons being the expected spotlight on Usopp. In fact, the latest chapter of One Piece (1123) appears to hint at this, as it features Usopp celebrating their journey to Elbaf.

Oda’s One Piece manga series has been continuously serialized in Shuiesha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine since its debut in July 1997. The manga is currently in its final saga, with the Egghead arc serving as its first arc.
