there's a saying that goes: "if im dead i can sleep all i want, now i can stay awake ill do everything i can"….maybe he lives by that.

I'm 22 and if I don't get 8 hours of sleep I'm devastated. If the amount goes below 6 you can practicaly sweep me off the floor with a broom.

I know that he has assistants for drawing, but does he have assistants for everything else (you know) to organise his life?
Also, he should have a person who can help him with things related to the database of One Piece world just to give him (Oda) enough space to sleep or do other things with his family.
I wish him all the best. Thank you Oda. -
@Nia:
Exactly.
I've got university business to take care of during the day and work at night, so I never get more than 3 hours of sleep on weekdays.
To make up for that I sleep till 6pm on Saturdays.How have you not broken down into a shrieking, giggling mess yet O_O ?

Actually, the human body generally works best in sleep cycles of 90 minute increments. 90 minutes, 3 hours, 4 and a half hours, six hours, seven and a half. It has to do with REM cycles. Getting more or less than that 90 minute mark actually disrupts your system, so that its less recovering than getting less sleep.
It's actually better for you to get only 6 hours than to get 7 hours… and better to get 7 1/2 than 8. (It'll vary some from person to person, but more or less that timetable.)
This is why you can take a short nap and feel refreshed, but if you sleep all night its sometimes hard to get out of bed in the morning and you need an extra hour... or why you wake up and can't get back to sleep. Similarly, you start to slog and get tired after you've been up for 14 or 16 hours, (depending on what you're used to) but once you hit the 20 hour mark you're good and energized for another bunch of hours until you hit the hump again around hour 26 or 27.
it's also why you can sometimes lay down in bed and not fall asleep for hours, your body just isn't ready for it yet.
If you take a nap or two during the day, or have a recharge day after a long week of work, and your system is used to it, its fine. I used to do it all the time. Its a pretty common sort of sleep cycle for creatives with heavy deadlines and overlapping schedules, I used to be on a similar schedule myself, though i don't push myself as badly anymore.
SWITCHING to a 3 hour sleep cycle might mess you up, but once you're on it and used to it, its okay (assuming the rest of the world allows you to follow such a schedule.)
-
If you didn't facepalmed at people who whine about breaks before, you should now.
-
I read online there's a sleeping schedule called the Ubermensch schedule that if you follow let's you get all the sleep you need by taking four 30 minute power naps throughout the day.
-
Uberman is a bit bothersome to do, especially if you aren't programed like a mindless robot to do the same exact tasks every single day.

I think that's pretty much what Einstein was on. The human body naturally works in a 26 hour cycle I think, (Or was it 28?) despite our daylight cycles. It really is just being able to schedule like that when the rest of the world doesn't really allow it.

You mean like draw manga pages?

There's that, but I'm sure even Oda doesn't have that kind of schedule. He does other things too. Busy dude.
-
YOu can do that sort of sleep cycle and feel refreshed and awake, but it's still taking a physical toll on the body. THere are several phases of sleep, and you miss out on some of them if you cut your sleeping hours back, even if you don't realize it, since only one of the phases is needed to make you feel awake, but the others serve other important functions
-
Wow, I love One piece and all but still I would much rather prefer him to have a really Healthy life than read One piece each week. I really think he should dial it back a little.
-
Your body performs more of its regenerative functions when it is at rest, even if Oda feels refreshed…over time, he will feel the effects of limited rest periods much earlier than someone who gets more hours of sleep.
Oh and doesn't he still smoke? Ayayay!...The guy is setting himself for a ton of health problems in the not so distant future.

Lol personally i think its a typo and they ment 2 p.m. ;)

Another picture with 2 of One Piece editors (Hattori John-Baptiste Akira is one of them, I don´t remember now other editor name).
Thanks for sharing! It's this guy I believe.

Did you seriously just said that drawing manga pages is robot work?
The inking process may be. It's just following the line previously made. But everything else is creative work not a repeatitive work. Even the grids and ballons are creative work, of course someone with Oda's experience doesn't need that much time to think about them but I assure that from time to time even he stops to think "how can I make this scene work". And he needs to sketch new settings and characters all the time. And he writes the story too, which involves scripting, setting the events' time-lime and etc way before drawing pages. -
Impressive only sleeps 3 hours and only things Oda forget was gin and krieg.:ninja:

sorry if i wasn't clear about that. -

sorry if i wasn't clear about that.No problem, I just didn't really see the connection between the sleep issue and those two.^^
-
This discussion got fairly interesting when it started to circle the intricacies of an optimal sleep schedule. Especially the Ubermensch one awoke my interest.
Personally I doubt that I could function properly with only three hours of sleep a day. It would certainly work for a specific amount of time but at some point my mind would start to fade away and that one moment is enough to crash your car into a tree or whatnot. In other words it's quite the dangerous habit Oda's got there. Hopefully the consequences won't hit him too hard one day (it's certain that they will; the question is only when)… -
I sleep from 4 to 7 am then when I get back from class I take a 5 hour nap :P. Maybe Oda naps, Oda needs to chill out and fucking relax if he gets sick or worse before One Piece ends (or just in general) it will be awful.
-
Damn Oda lives the manga life doesn't he? I wish he could go abroad with his family :(
He should damn it.
-
Is Oda…depressed. Whenever I see/hear an interview from him, the way it's worded--the way he words things--makes him seem like he's down and upset.
-
i worked at a golf course over the summer, i started at 6am and i'd go to bed around 1-2am cause i hate going to bed early, with 4-5 hours sleep everynight i can tell you when friday came i crashed like hell, i don't know how Oda's planning to do another 10 years of 3hour sleep nights but i get why he needs a break once a month, that's ridiculous.
And i'm guessing it's more fatigue than depressed, depression he'd be sleeping 12hours a day and one piece would be hunter x hunter quality after like chapter 90.
-
I respect Oda so much, that's why I'm going to buy all One Piece volumes soon. One Piece the greatest series to ever exsist
-
I suggest someone talking to any of the users here in japan to start a petition to get Oda a Tempur Pedic and some much needed hours of sleep, and for those over there who still complain about the breaks, forced Hara Kiri. Someone should really bring that up when he appears in Jump Festa. Give him a brand new bed.

Can't the poor man get a break already?
Thinking about his workload makes me ill. -
let oda be like he wants it to be. I am sure when he wanted he could sleep longer, but he declines to do so because he dont need it. He said it by himself, he dont need more then three hours of sleep. Sure its exhausting but its still his decision. Respect this, that one man can do so much without that much sleep :D For the newspaper idea, i find it a nice catch and i do hope there are some usefull and new features in it :3

I agree. It's okay to be concerned about an artist you respect, but I think that we should also respect Oda's decision.

I only found that scans, sorry.

monotoneOh no redon, take out all of the scans regarding to Nami and Robin! People here will think the newspaper is sexist! actual honest tone Seriously though, thanks for all your work with the scans redon :).

actually,it's not true.
the concept of a long period of sleep during the night it's relatively recent. -

the concept of a long period of sleep during the night it's relatively recent.Yeah, because science works based on when an idea comes into existence right? Besides which, for most of human history peole slept much longer than today because sleep patterns were dictated by the sun's setting and rising. UNtil electrical lights came, most people just couldn't afford an artificial lighting system, so they got up at dawn and slept at dusk
-

No, because they still had fire. They all went to the tavern at night to get hammered as people do today.
What the crap, have you never seen a movie?Plus in the northen countries were nights can last more than 12 hours in the winter it was normal for people to sleep for some hours, awake for 1 or 2 hours were they would something like cleaning the house or eating a light meal and then go back to sleep again.
Sleeping scheadules were always different trough out the eras, regions and people's costumes but no tribe/country ever went to sleep when sun set just because the sun was setting.

Never said it was exactly like that, but they still tended to follow the patterns of the sun because that was easiest. You coud make a fire, but you realize that fires require fuel among other things, and usually are confined to a specific area and can't be used wherever you like. People tended to sleep when it was dark more. That is a fact. It's only recently that we've really started getting so little sleep because electric lights screw up our internal clock and allow us to function in the night far more easily
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
Ok I think there may be a misunderstanding here: When we say we need a certain amount of sleep to perform regenerative functions that don;t necessarily occur even if you feel refreshed, we aren't talking about one long sleep session necessarily. It's hours of sleep per day. Schedules that alow the body to "adjust" to things like 2 hours of sleep a day do make you feel refreshed, but don't allow other functions of sleep to occur that are necessary for health. There is a reason you are supposed to get 7-9 hours of sleep a day. The number really isn't arbitrary

no they didn't…it's true that they got to bed at dusk,but these were not continuative hours of sleeping time,they actually get up in a middle of the night,do something at the light of a candle and then go back to bed.
it's only in recent times that we think that we MUST have 8 to 10 hours of continuative sleep,mostly because of how life works in urban environments -
I love when post go completely off topic… and yet it all comes back full circle at the end

Wow, first, talk about rape and sexual harassment that causes traumatic events on one site, to the study of human sleep in another, this is the best site ever^^. So yeah, newspaper, fun articles, very interesting.

Humans evolved to what they are in a natural and cruel world, in which they had to be constantly on their toes for prey, predators and rivals/enemies. Primitive man didn't have a relaxed life that allowed him to sleep carelessly all night long and for very long periods like we do now.

THere are several phases of sleep, and you miss out on some of them if you cut your sleeping hours back, even if you don't realize it, since only one of the phases is needed to make you feel awake, but the others serve other important functions
In 90 minutes, your body completes every phase of sleep there is, that's why it's a complete cycle. After that you're just staking cycles.
Beyond that, the human body is an amazing thing. The reason the Ubermesch Sleep Cycle is capable is because you're body change itself to complete the entire cycle in 30 minutes, sleeping for only 30 minutes 4 times a day (or the alternative is 20 minutes 6 times a day–which is harder to do but better for you in the long run) grants you 4 complete cycles (or 6!) as day, when an average person gets three.If you do something long enough, your body will adapt to make it work for you.
