Willl Togashi ever return from his endlessly long hiatus?

So weve been waiting for like a year for the HxH manga to continue yet Togashi still keeps acting like a stubborn kid who rather plays games and home than finish his masterpiece.

Why doesnt he hire his co-workers to draw for him? And from what Ive heard, his wife is the author of Sailor Moon, so she could do it too.

And what will happen if HxH never continues? Would it be a disaster?

Mod Note: Moved to Hunter x Hunter series discussion.

Maybe he doesn't want his assistants ruin his beautiful art...

5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

its on hiatus because Togashi has health issues (i think back problems if im not mistaken). I hope it will continue since it is one of my favorites, but it wont be a disaster if it doesn't continue

Really now..

He has back pain problems as stated the last time he took a break, he had a surgery. Why are you ridiculing that to vapid games ignorance, how would you know even that? because of an old picture?

Nothing will happen. Some stores already marked Hunter x Hunter as finished to sell them as a whole set.

I cant @ the pisspoor back pain health issue excuse.

Its not like he is in dying pain 24/7 and after all he writes with his arms, not his back.

He kind of owes it to people who spend their lifetime on following that series.
And why should we be happy? Because we probably wont ever see the ending?

I spent months on watching a show/reading a manga which became one of my favorites just to realize that I will never find out how it will end (i.e how the Kurapika vs. Phantom Troupe conflict will resolve).

Again, why should I be happy?

I don't think he 'owes' anybody anything but I think its stupid to not think that its not a two way relationship. Fans support the work so that it can continue to be published and its pretty shitty to leave the fans hung out to dry.

considering most of the fans on this site don't pay for it or support him in any real way they don't really have a right to complain IMHO

I'm depressed about that as well but to be fair why should give a shit about the opinions of those who've become fan of the series by reading scanlations?

It's true that he never owe the fans anything.
But it's just irresponsible if he just release a chapter whenever he want and take hiatus whenever he want without any clear reason, the industry would ruined badly if most mangaka start doing as he please just because he didn't feel any need to work anymore.

With all respect, OP, I think you are being an asshole.

To draw you need to be sitting on a chair for hours. Of course he can't do it with his back pain problems.

I know what are you feeling. Ive read awesome fanfics that will never end, but it was good while it lasted. Try to be a little optimistic, its on hiatus. There is still hope, just be a little patient.

If working on a manga is oh so exhausting then he shouldnt have started it in the first place. Togashi is not sick, just lazy.

he legit gets money for drawing n shit, the only reason he stopped is because he already got a fuckton of money and is married to that hoe so he's like 'ayy lmao i dun need work'

the back pain excuse is laughable when he can just hire people to draw for him. it's not like his art is anything amazing, he literally scribbles over shit because he's that fucking lazy.

How should the fans know if Togashi never say anything?
This kind of thread or question pop up because the lack of communication Togashi had between the fans, be it through his editor on Jump, Social media or by himself.

There is absolutely no point for HxH to continue. There is no point to continue the series now that he found his father.

Despite his health issues if he eventually decides to not keep doing it he's entitled to give up on it. If he was working on it only due obligation the quality would probably drop and since it's his creation he has the right to do whatever he wants to as long as his editors accept it and/or he accepts the consequences.
