Last time it was also on ANN, and it was a fake. IIRC during the GI where I started the anime, there were also rumors, turned out to be a 1-shot or someting.

It's official this time, being on the website now.. but at first, you could see people just believingit was true regardless

It's more easily believable this time because the last time it happened it was only based on a dubious leaked scan, with no word from any official source.

Fortunately this time the announcement is coming from the magazine itself, and since April 1st passed a while ago, I'm willing to believe it and jump for joy.

Don't jinx it!


Well not my fault, I mean everyone (not me) fell for it last time, and people just still believe it instantly! So desperate haha


Two years of waiting is enough to make anyone desperate. I'm still broken from the last announcement... but that was a leak so it might be different this time.

I'm wondering how long it'll take for it to go on hiatus again, though. Ever since Togashi started his hiatuses (at around 2004) his longest uninterrupted was 30 or so chapters. Hopefully it's different this time...

Just an assumption but maybe the anime got Togashi thinking "This is incredible! I should really get back to work!" or anything similar to that. It's interesting to see this news being released the day episode 126 airs. Really hoping Madhouse does the manga justice with this one, they normally do. It's a 2 for 1 special today! :D thank you Togashi!

The whole "Oh, but he has a wife and childrens" excuse doesn't work with Togashi. Dozens of other mangakas also have wives and kids, but you don't see any of them taking two-year-long hiatus.

Who sets the standards for work ethic exactly? It is possible that he is not too concerned about milking money or appeasing his fans, but with pleasing himself with his work. Is the guy borrowing money in advance and slacking by playing video games?

Mangakas have standars for work ethic. Togashi doesn't have to follow them because of the deal he made with WSJ before starting HxH, but that doesnt mean he must become the perfect example of an irresponsible, lazy and disinterested mangaka.

He doesn't borrow money, he's already rich. But he is slacking off playing video games. Where do you think all the Dragon Quest jokes come from?

And lol at pleasing himself with his work. Yeah right, if he wanted that he would never had gone into hiatus, or he woulld have finished the series already.

Come on man, I know you are fan of the guy but that's just bullshit. He is in a weekly publications. His work ethics dictates him to draw in a normal secedule. When the manga has more weeks of non-publications, then yes he has terrible work ethics.

http://oi58.tinypic.com/2zz51zl.jpg

And Togashi clearly doesn't care for his fans. Not issuing any formal apology or even explaining to the fans, why he goes on so many hiatuses. Milking money? if he is not concerned with milking money, he should just ended then. He said in a interview that he as three stories left, but he is not bothered on when he will draw them.

I don't like Mashima or Oda or think of their works as something good. But I can confidently say that they have great work ethics, and they are not lazy.

Who cares about how and why Togashi takes these breaks. He isn't holding a gun at your head so if you don't like the fact that man takes many breaks drop the series and don't look back. He owes us nothing, especially since most of us don't even pay for his work.

No, he lacks every single basis of work ethic. This is not even up to debate. Look at the image tsudecimo posted above me and tell me he has work ethics.

If he lacks greed, why hasn't he finished the series already? Why did he begin an arc (Dark Continent) that by the looks of it it's going to be even longer than the Chimera Ants arc, and that it introduces many totally new elements that he is going to have to explain and that guarantees a very long duration?

I don't see what Call of Duty has to do in this...

Well who knows. The problem is Togashi never explained why he takes breaks, there are only rumors of the reasons. And judging by the last chapter, it doesn't seem like is running out of ideas or inspiration since like Andan210 said he introduced many new elements to the story and made a setup for a possibly long arc.

Exactly, all these buzzword 'work ethics', 'lazy' accusation are thrown around here so righteously like you'd think they accused him of being some severe lazy bum, how dare he doesn't produce and contribute to global economy and leeches off society or something.

If you set your priority in life to be spending quality time with your family, and that means you're freaking LAZY. Wow that's a mess up dichotomy you have right there.

Life is meeting production quota and pleasing others...these people say.

Especially for someone who's earned it already, he made millions for his publisher and earned his status as a beloved writer, he's probably set for life already along with his wife's fortune, he doesn't need to rely on Jump's grueling schedule to survive. He's obviously a smart guy, not a sucker to the flawed and unforgiving manga system.

If some other guy rather sacrifice his family time and health to get into the grueling Jump serial system, that's his choice. Greeeat. He wont' earn my respect just for being a sucker to grueling system nor suddenly made his work 'good' or creative and worthy to read. Good for him to earn a special glory for 'good work ethics', whatever. Work ethics doesn't necessarily yield great work.

You can complain all you want about the Big 3, but you can't deny that all three mangakas do the job they are suppossed to do. And also that is obvious that they love what they are doing and appreciate the support of their fans. That's way more than what i can say of Togashi.
Still, we are not talking about them, we're talking abot HxH. Bringing the examples of other mangakas here will only show how lazy Togashi is, besides starting more flame wars.

To me their job was to make a good story, but their lack of work ethics makes them milk their shows without taste, since hey, still getting money.

Call of Duty has a lot of support and fans and they work every year to release a game, it's a shame the Last of Us is only released once, what crappy work ethics, eh?

Call of Duty has a lot of support and fans and they work every year to release a game, it's a shame the Last of Us is only released once, what crappy work ethics, eh?

Again, that's just your opinion. Work ethic is an objective value and is measured by hard work and diligence. Togashi lacks it. There's nothing more to it.

You keep bringing Call of Duty examples. I should say i don't play video games...

So, in short, you don't care if he's lazy and doesn't do his job? Ok, good for you.


see I don't see him as lazy, i see him as smart as #90 saids, a man with the ideal priorities in life. He works part-time on his own calling, instead of submit to a grueling schedule and get suck into delivering production quota to please everyone. He gets to where he can call his own shot, make his own pace. I think a lot of work ethics screamer are really just envious.

If I were him I'd do the same, only write sporadically when inspiration and motivation came, with enjoying life being my #1 priority.

So, because you want to do the same that him, that makes him any less lazy?
You can put it in pretty words if you want, he is still being lazy with the work he is supposed to be doing.
It's fine if you consider right or good what he's doing (i don't, in fact it's the opposite), but don't try to deny objective facts about his work conduct.

The people who made Last of Us most likely make other games you know. And Call of Duty probably have a bigger team to make those games.

Togashi takes months/years of hiatus and when he comes back, he can publish pages that look like that:

If I can't call that bad work ethics, I don't know what I could call bad work ethics.

It's very hard to truly say if he's lazy or not.
As a writer myself, I can attest to the fact that it takes a lot of time to write something. I have been planning things for my own story for years, making sure I have everything figured out so I don't end up with a plot hole later. When I change something, lots of other things like characters and events need to be changed as well, resulting in even more time investment. If Togashi is anything like me in terms of writing, I do not blame him for his hiatuses. For all you know, he could have planned the rest of the series and yet all he has are fans that just say he's lazy like they know everything.

Instead, I think people should appreciate what Togashi has done more as it can take a lot of time and effort to write anything and wait patiently for what he will bring out in the future no matter how long it takes.

Oda has many more things placed throughout his story that shows how much he plans, has a larger story(more characters, events, etc), and has already confirmed that he knows how it will end. And he gets chapters out every week.

Exactly. Oda is the prime example, but theres also the authors of any other weekly or monthly long-running manga (not necessarily battle shounen) that works on the industry and don't take year-long breaks.
No to mention the fact that Togashi is already a veteran mangaka, and that he made a complete long-running battle shounen manga in the past (Yu Yu Hakusho) working on a weekly basis.
He's not an amateur and HxH is not his first series.

How do you explain the low quality of some of his drawings when he comes back? If anything, he has more time than the other author to do it.
