Togashi sensei is back — Hunter X Hunter creator’s latest manga updates send fans into a frenzy

Despite his reputation for taking hiatuses due to his health, Hunter X Hunter manga creator Yoshihiro Togashi has recently started providing updates on his work to fans. Despite this, fans continue to eagerly anticipate his return, holding onto the hope of one day seeing the series reach its planned conclusion.

Thankfully, after a wait of approximately nine months, the manga artist has returned online and appears to be back to working on the manga. In addition to announcing his comeback through updates, he has also started providing daily progress updates to his devoted fans.

Why are Hunter X Hunter Manga Fans Excited About Togashi’s Latest Updates?

After the release of Hunter X Hunter chapter 400 in December 2022, the manga series entered an indefinite hiatus. Since then, fans have been eagerly anticipating the release of future chapters by the manga creator. Despite providing updates on his work for chapter 401 in both March and October of 2023, there were no further updates until May 1, 2024.

Fans were thrilled to learn that manga creator Yoshihiro Togashi has finally moved on from chapter 401 and has made progress to chapter 405. This update was a promising indication that new chapters would soon be released for eager fans.

The manga recently returned from its hiatus and published 10 chapters before going on hiatus once again. This pattern suggests that fans can anticipate the release of another 10 chapters of Hunter x Hunter in the near future.

Despite his slow pace, the manga creator has been consistently providing fans with updates on his page progress for two consecutive days, which is a positive aspect.

How Fans Responded to Updates from the Creator of Hunter X Hunter Manga

Fans were overjoyed when Yoshihiro Togashi posted tweets on two consecutive days, indicating that the manga creator would be making a comeback with his manga chapters. Fans are hopeful that this return will bring even more chapters than his last return, during which he released 10 manga chapters.

“Togashi sensei is back guys,”exclaimed one fan.

Some Hunter X Hunter enthusiasts praised Yoshihiro Togashi, claiming that he was the sole manga artist capable of receiving 50,000 likes within 30 minutes by simply posting a picture with the number “7”on it.

The tweet caused a lot of excitement among fans because the day before, he had shared a progress photo of himself working on page 5 of chapter 405. In his subsequent update, he was shown working on pages 6 and 7, indicating clear progress.

“Togashi really the only Mangaka who can post a picture of the number 7 and get 50k likes in 30 min,”one fan said.

“New togashi notif my day is blessed,”another added.

“Why do you keep giving me hope,”anther fan said.

Despite this, some fans were hesitant to get their hopes up for Yoshihiro Togashi’s return as the manga creator, as he has a history of going on hiatus without warning. This is due to his previous announcements for future chapters in March and October 2023, which ultimately did not result in any progress until May 2024.
