This legendary Shonen Jump manga is finally coming back after a long hiatus

When it comes to popular manga, one of the most common names is this Hunter x Hunter. Written by Yoshihiro Togashi, the manga is a classic and universally adored. The popularity of the series is reflected in its sales, and according to the latest figures, it has sold more than 150 million copies, making it one of the best-selling manga of all time.

To many, their impressive sales demonstrate their quality, making the best-selling manga of all time an easy choice for manga fans.

While the number is certainly impressive, there's no denying that it could have been even higher if the manga didn't take so many hiatuses. Even now, the Hunter x Hunter manga is on hiatus, but it is possible that it will end soon.

Toagashi has completed several chapters of the Hunter x Hunter Manga

  • Togashi completed the manuscripts for chapters 414 to 418

  • No release date has been shared yet

Recently, Yoshihiro Togashi shared an update on his X (formerly Twitter) account confirming that the manuscripts for Hunter x Hunter Chapters 414-418 have been completed. But neither Togashi nor Shonen Jump has shared any information regarding the return of the Hunter x Hunter manga.

With several manuscripts in the works, there's a good chance the manga will return to Shonen Jump in the coming months. In fact, it could be as early as next month. At the same time, it is possible that fans will have to wait a few more months to read the new chapters of Hunter x Hunter. Hopefully, Togashi or Shonen Jump will share more news soon to ease fans' worries.

If HxH fans deserve credit, it's their patience. They remain by Togashi's side for years, even when the author was gravely ill. No one wanted Togashi to rush. Instead, they urged the author to take as much time as he needed. Fortunately, Togashi seems to be feeling better. Otherwise he would not have worked on any of the manuscripts.

Hunter x Hunter needs a new anime

Hunter x Hunter last received an anime adaptation in 2011 and there have been no updates since then. However, the people involved in the franchise need to start working on the production of the new anime. Nowadays, a solid anime adaptation can greatly increase the popularity of a series.

So if Hunter x Hunter releases an anime, a lot more people will be talking about it. The release of a new anime will also boost manga sales.
