Nevertheless, Togashi revealed that he has already completed the character art for one of the most recent chapters. Now, he asks readers to await the magazine's official announcement regarding the release schedule for the next chapters.
In addition to the new information, the author shared artwork featuring Kurapika alongside Artemis and Sailor Mars. The illustration celebrates both Takeuchi's support and external references, such as NASA's Artemis II mission and the Sailor Moon theatrical performance in Tokyo.
Known for its recurring hiatuses, Hunter x Hunter is an action manga created by Togashi and published in Weekly Shonen Jump since 1998. The breaks mainly occur due to the author's health issues, which directly impacts the story's pace.
