Renowned mangaka Yoshihiro Togashi ,
creator of the popular “ HUNTER
x HUNTER ” series, has left his fans in suspense once again after
sharing a worrying update about his health. On his official Twitter account,
the author wrote: " My back has not been well these last few
days ." This message has generated a wave of concern among
his followers, who fear that the series could once again enter a long-term
suspension.
“HUNTER x HUNTER” is one of the most beloved and
popular works of manga, but its serialization has been marked by long pauses
due to Togashi's health problems. Since the publication of Chapter 400
in December 2022, there have been no new chapters, and although the author has
promised on multiple occasions that “something new will be published soon” ,
progress has been extremely slow. This situation has led fans to question
whether the series will be able to continue or if it faces another indefinite
hiatus.
The critical situation of “HUNTER x
HUNTER” is largely due to the physical condition of Togashi ,
who has struggled for years with chronic back problems that hinder his ability
to work on a regular basis. The question that many ask is: aren't
assistants supposed to be there to help in these cases? In the manga
industry, it is common for authors to have a team of assistants who support
them in the creation of the manga, performing tasks such as inking or designing
backgrounds. However, it seems that Togashi, known for being a
perfectionist, prefers to work alone in many parts of the process, which could
explain the lack of significant progress.
Despite the challenges, the popularity of “HUNTER x
HUNTER” has not diminished. Fans around the world continue to support
the work and look forward to new chapters, despite repeated pauses. However,
Togashi's recent update has renewed fears that the series could be left unfinished,
something that would be devastating for fans who have followed the story of Gon
Freecss and his friends since its inception in 1998.
For now, fans can only hope that Togashi's health
improves and that the author can resume his work without further complications. The
uncertainty about the future of “HUNTER x HUNTER” continues , but the
hope of seeing the conclusion of this epic story remains alive among his loyal
community of followers.
