When will the Manga Return?

Hunter x Hunter has become notorious not only for its captivating storyline but also for its extended hiatuses.

Fans can rest assured; this hiatus is expected to be shorter. Shueisha has confirmed that the series will recommence in Weekly Shōnen Jump with chapter 401 on October 7, 2024.

While the specific number of chapters has yet to be detailed, this time around, the manga is set to follow its own unique release schedule rather than adhering to a weekly timetable. Shueisha has indicated it is collaborating with the author to support the new schedule.
