Manga 'Hunter x Hunter' Resumes Serialization

Here we go again.....

This arc has major potential; I just really hope that it sticks around for more than ten chapters.

You can smile again.

I hope the GOAT mangaka will stay healthy and feeling good. Can't wait until everything comes to a head on the ship, and chapter 371 definitely had a promising last few pages in that regard.

The phantom troupe is back !!! XD

Can somebody tell me or give me a semi-spoiler about something interesting that is going to happen in the Manga now ?

Can't wait for the next hiatus in 1 or 2 months.

I bet it's for a whole 3 chapters or so.

Are you serious? The most important thing to a human is himself/herself then his family. That is basic human's rights.

So much hatred for petty reason. Plenty of other mangaka take long hiatus like Arakawa Hiromu with Silver Spoon.

Finally! I have been waiting for this :) After such a long hiatus as well. Wow! Hopefully, they get through the entirety of the dark continent with the new material. Also, this may be asking a bit much but I hope that the anime gets some extra episodes and follows suit. That would be the best outcome in my opinion!

Yes, @keragamming. You're an opinion driven person and there's nothing wrong with it. But you need to analyse HxH more (not in terms of art but in terms of story and depth). Its not a masterpiece for nothing, and talking about the current arc, its still has maintained consistency in quality. Let me tell you guys a big secret. Listen, Togashi's real reason for taking hiatuses is not bad health but requirement of extra time period to maintain and come up with a quality story... OK, so you'll have to bear with it if you want a good story and don't put emphasis on art when it comes to a manga. -_-

he is married to the mangaka who wrote sailor moon, had a extremely popular and great selling series before hunterxhunter. Like i hate to break it to you but the man doesn't need our money so let's stop memeing about how he only makes enough for a volume so he can live off the paycheck. Besides his health issues are well documented.

How is writing a reply on a forum threat being entitled ? Why do forums even exist anyway going by that logic ?

I can understand your feelings. For some cases.

You're critical, so critical that every little thing you debate it.
I agree with your way of thinking, that drawing is the demands of every mangaka. They must, because they are paid, and turn to provide service to the reader. That's a reasonable thought. Because basically mangaka is a job, they must be professional.

Why I said "He remains healthy", of course it matters, I'm not a reader who randomly cares about random middle aged guy just because I admire his work (I'm not the kind of fan/reader who went "kya kyaa", overrated this and that). Precisely because I enjoy what he gives, the health of their bodies are also important. But still he is also a human being who can sick at any time.

And most importantly, I don't really know whether he has an assistant or not, is 'really' sick or not and all the rest of the bitch. I don't know where do you get the information and how, but I don't like you as if you are right and others are wrong by relying on translations. Japanese is not always easy, it's difficult for some parts. Not always use Hiragana, but there is also Kanji. And that's why Furigana makes it easy for you to read. If you are the only one who understands the most, why don't you try to tell in a good way? Fix it.

Well, I also bought the comics physically, but I don't feel regret after buying them. I get my own satisfaction when reading it. If you don't like, stop caring, it's that simple. Don't bother yourself that makes you hate him more, if there is a problem that is not transparently exposed to the public, it can't be helped.

And seeing Togashi getting the serialization in a different magazine, I don't think it's just him (there's Watase Yuu, Asada Nikki, etc). You should just ignore it like you put professionalism first, but put aside mangaka who was arrested for child pornography like Nobuhiro Watsuki (author of Samurai X). Besides, I'm not really care that much about mangaka's real personality and all the problems of his life. It's a different matter, I just enjoy read their manga.

Your overall statement is too corny and really hates Togashi. Just like you guys are upset about the long hiatuses, but you should not be exaggerating just for something like this.

Well, first, I wish him health and hope that this time the run is more than just customary 10 chapters. But seriously, for the sake of his fans I wish he would lose some of his stubbornness and perfectionism and hire some assistants, it would reduce his workload visibly and speed it up. Otherwise I just don't see him finishing his manga in a satisfying way in this lifetime...

Up until now, I was a little happy since I thought I was having a somewhat normal debate on the internet without it going to shit. Now you say you didn't know any of this. As in you came to this topic with no prior knowledge, saw my post, theorized that the mangaka is severely ill and just went from there?

Okay then, good for you. at least now you know dude is just a piece of shit.

In all honesty, I think all you guys defending this guy simply don't do your research at all, or don't know any Japanese and just read the cherry picked interviews that get translated.

To be honest I have no idea if this is actually true and I have no intention to do my research because I don't care more than that. I made the assumption that he is severely sick and I based my premise on this assumption in order to say that. What is the truth? I have no idea and I don't see the point of debating about that.

You know that he is not sick... right? like you know that the back pain stuff was all due to his weight and now he is okay? Seriously all the hiatuses after 2014 have been this guy dicking around (except that big one, that was apparently his heart)

He, himself has said on numerous occasions that the problems with his back is fully solved and the lingering pain is from his lifestyle which his physician condones but he just doesn't give a shit.

I don't know If you follow this guy, and I've said it tons of time on this exact topic. He went on hiatus to (AND THESE ARE FROM THE GUY HIMSELF) Play Im@s / force the higher-ups to fire my editor / Play tales of / Play DQ / Go abroad to a fighting game tournament.

He just gave up giving reasons altogether since a year or so earlier. He is not in a bad shape, certainly not worse than the average mangaka his age.

I guess there are some truth behind this. Still, I'm very not fond of the idea of being that arrogant given the fact that he's actually sick.

you're so wrong with this. Just let me ask you this. Would you be as invested in any series as you're now, If the series could and eventually would go on a hiatus for months, for absolutely no reason? What if it suddenly turned into complete shit on top of that, can you seriously say that this won't affect how much you enjoyed the manga? like the stuff after the death of L on Death Note, didn't those just ruin the whole experience for you?

No, you couldn't. it's about the flow. You enjoyed this week's of one piece partly because of the hype you have for the next chapter and the assurance that you get it every week at the same time, with the same quality (more or less).

These kinds of hiatus takes away (1)Flow of the story (2)The enjoyment of waiting for the next issue (3)Assurance (4)Any kind of "water-cooler-talk" about the series

So, in short, I and many others enjoy (and therefore INVEST) in a "Weekly Manga" partly because we enjoy the "weekly aspect" of it.

Remember I don't buy manga to collect. Funny thing is that I don't have a single manga/book/textbook in my house. I only buy them to "invest" in the author/mangaka.

It's called voting with your wallet, and just like you getting pissed off when the politician you voted for changes his policies after getting elected, I too can get pissed off when the mangaka I gave money to stops being a mangaka and turns into a useless hikikomori who sometimes draws some doodles.

-----------------------
EDIT: it would be better if he ended the manga. It's like watching someone you love on life support, changing into a husk of its former self. I honestly think it's time to pull the plug.
