Hunter x Hunter Fans Buzzing with Excitement as Yoshihiro Togashi Drops Teasers for Manga’s Return
After taking a long break following Chapter 400, fans of “Hunter x Hunter” are buzzing with excitement thanks to some recent hints dropped by Yoshihiro Togashi about his comeback to the manga. Togashi has been sharing early sketches and drafts on his Twitter, hinting that new chapters might be on their way soon.
The Hunter x Hunter manga, which has been on and off since 2006 due to Togashi’s health issues, took one of its longest breaks after Chapter 400 in late 2022. But toward the end of that year, there was a brief release of ten new chapters, giving fans a glimmer of hope for the series to continue. These breaks have created a cycle of suspense and anticipation among fans, who eagerly await each new chapter in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump.
Togashi, who’s known for being open about his health struggles, has been keeping fans updated through social media. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the schedule of the series, Shueisha has promised to support Togashi’s health and work. During the hiatus, Shueisha announced, “Thank you for reading Hunter x Hunter. As for the publication of the manga, Chapter 401 and beyond, we have decided to publish ‘Hunter x Hunter’ in a format other than weekly serialization to better accommodate Togashi-Sensei’s health condition.”
“Hunter x Hunter” follows the story of Gon Freecss, a young boy who discovers that his father, who’s been absent from his life, is a famous Hunter. Gon embarks on a journey to find his father and understand his choices, aiming to earn his own Hunter license along the way. He faces numerous challenges and forms alliances with other Hunters on his adventure.
Since its debut, “Hunter x Hunter” has garnered a huge following in Japan and around the world, influencing manga and anime culture globally. The series is praised for its intricate plot, well-developed characters, and its unique approach to the shonen genre. The recent hints from Togashi have caused a frenzy of excitement in online communities and social media, where fans analyze updates and speculate about what’s to come.
There’s no specific return date announced yet, but anticipation for Chapter 401 and beyond of “Hunter x Hunter” is steadily growing. Fans are hopeful for a satisfying continuation of the story, supporting Togashi’s creative process and eagerly awaiting the next chapters. As the manga potentially gears up for a comeback, the strong connection between the creator and the fanbase promises an exciting future for this beloved series.
