Fans of “Hunter x Hunter” have been eagerly waiting, and their patience might soon be rewarded. Yoshihiro Togashi, the brilliant mind behind the series, has hinted that a new chapter is on its way, stirring excitement among enthusiasts.
The series, a staple in the shonen genre, has seen two anime adaptations: the first from 1999 to 2001 with 62 episodes and a reboot by Studio Madhouse from 2011 to 2014, spanning 148 episodes. Despite the extensive run, much of the story remains untold.
Togashi had to pause work on the manga due to health issues, prioritizing his recovery. However, his passion for the series never waned, and he recently teased fans with an update on Chapter 408’s progress.
This peak into the manga’s continuation sent his three million social media followers into a frenzy, eagerly sharing the news.
The ongoing arc, “Succession Contest,” shifts focus to Kurapika, one of Gon’s friends, who seeks the last Scarlet Eyes of his fallen clan. This arc also features characters like Chrollo and Hisoka of the Phantom Troupe, adding to the excitement.
While new manga pages are underway, there is no news yet about the anime’s return. Fans can only hope for Togashi’s full recovery and more chapters to come.
