Hunter x Hunter Manga Returns: New Chapters Announced After Nearly 2-Year Hiatus
This marks the end of the extended hiatus, which began in late 2022 due to the author’s ongoing health issues. Fans can now rejoice as the adventures of Gon Freecss, Killua Zoldyck, and their companions are set to continue, with fresh chapters scheduled for release in the upcoming months.
New Chapters
The Hunter x Hunter manga left off in the midst of the Succession War arc, involving the Kakin Royal Family’s brutal competition for the throne. At the center of this arc are Kurapika, who is deeply involved as a bodyguard, and the warring princes of Kakin.
Fans can expect the continuation of these tense conflicts, along with more exploration of the mysterious Dark Continent, a dangerous and uncharted region that has been a key focus in recent chapters. With the manga’s return, fans are hopeful that we may see further development in their journeys, especially with Gon’s ties to the Hunter world and Killua’s evolving relationship with his brother, Illumi.
Yoshihiro Togashi's Dedication
Yoshihiro Togashi’s return to the series is not just a victory for fans but also a testament to his dedication. The author has been open about his struggles with severe back pain, which significantly slowed down his ability to work on the manga.
However, his commitment to continuing the Hunter x Hunter story is evident with the release of these new chapters. Although no specific number of chapters has been confirmed, the announcement brings hope that Togashi’s careful and intricate storytelling will continue to unfold in the near future.
Stay tuned for more updates and the highly anticipated return of this legendary series!
