Takahiko Abiru, animation director of episodes such as 71 and 85, tweeted that he'll be doing episode 135 ending with chapter 318 (?).

People posted that there are 290 chapters adapted so far, so 28 chapters for 12 more episodes doesn't seem unbelievable anyway. So HxH will end in 1.5-2 cours I think.

It's nice to have an ending date, this should solve a lot of debates about when the series is gonna end. Anyway, that means we still have 12 episodes of the CA arc. And the Election arc is probably gonna be between 7 or 10 episodes at much (i really don't see Madhouse adapting in the "1 episode for 1 chapter" format with this arc).

Yeah, i guess where gonna have HxH until September. After that, let's all join to insult Togashi and his laziness.

Good. I'm excited for the next arc adaption. I'm not gonna lie though, I'm also interested in the possible future shit storms regarding some stuff about the CA arc.

I hope it won't end in an orthodox crappy way like most shonen do. And I will embrace the shit storms that may follow that notion.


Andan, they made it work with Welfin vs Ikalgo, I'm confident they can make it work on anything.

Nah, the Election arc has a nice, semi-conclusive ending. It's going to left some major things unsolved, but it's still satisfying.

It's better than ending it at the Dark Continent arc, that's for sure.

Do you think it's possible to get HxH (20XX) continuation? If the manga continues?

No I mean both CA and the other arc too, which is kind of the final arc.. at least for now.

I thought Togashi was taking a break because of major wrist pains? Hasn't he had a condition with his wrists for a while?

Either way, it's interesting that the next arc is so short. Someone said 10 or so episode, but I imagine they'll stretch it into 12 or 13 to fill the cour.

So basically, we have 2 more cours left and we're done.

I think it's just a hobby for him, which I don't mind, since it takes off the stress and lets him produce good stuff after so long, without losing it.

Yorknew. I bet that blew your mind.

Other favorites being Sasuke Retrieval from Naruto, Arlong Park,Sabaody, and Post Marineford from One Piece. If it gets an anime and if it even counts, Jojo Part IV should be up there as well.

I have certain arcs I prefer more but in my opinion, the one I really consider the most "well-written" from a technical standpoint, was the Chimera arc. It's just... a whole other level.

After the Chimera arc is the Dark Continent arc but Togashi has gone a hiatus again. Is there any news about what the animators are planning to do after the CA arc?

No, after the CA arc comes the Election arc, wich is 100% complete and wich is probably going to be the last arc of the anime. The Dark Continent arc is just one single chapter.

It's a shame that such a fantastic arc is ending so soon, but I suppose all good things must come to an end.

I'm looking forward to how Togashi wraps all of this up, in any case.

I'm definitely looking forward to The Election arc. When I read it in the manga it brought back that old HxH feel I only got from the original anime and the Hunter Exam. There is no better way to end this anime then chapter 339. Also alot of people see the Dark Continent as Togashi running out of ideas and trying to expand his world so he can write more because it came out of nowhere.

I'd personally say that ending the anime at Chapter 339 is the best, as it felt semi-conclusive to all the plot-lines connected to the CA arc. Plus, it felt like an actual ending. The CA arc alone was around 1/3 of the whole manga and covered a big chunk of the anime, so it's a pretty big arc to the story as a whole.
Then we wait 10 years for Togashi to get off his hiatus and another 2 for enough source material to continue the anime.

I can't wait for the shitstorm when the CA arc ends. It'll be fabulous.

It won't cause THAT much of a shitstorm. Pretty much every viewer and their dogs know that the manga is on hiatus and the only few that will be mad will be the minority who will check out the manga and say 'So...where's the rest?' while the others will just laugh at them and then cry

And the anime watchers will have the added benefit of waiting EVEN LONGER for a new episode. Togashi will watch from the comfort of his own home and laugh... well played Togashi.

i'm 99 percent sure people will still enjoy of what's left in the chimera ant arc. Not sure why anyone would think Togashi is running out of any ideas in HxH since the next Arc after Chimera is very well detailed and is very good for how short it is.

If you have enjoyed the series up to this point then you don't really have anything to worry about.

There's one small arc after Chimera ant, then 1 chapter of the next arc. I'm pretty sure they're not going to gamble on Togashi staying out of hiatus.
