Hunter X Hunter Manga Takes 2 Week Hiatus
posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
This year's 35th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine is announcing on Monday that Yoshihiro Togashi will put his Hunter X Hunter manga on a two-week hiatus. The series will resume on August 11 in the Weekly Shonen Jump 37-38 double issue.
Hunter X Hunter resumed serialization on June 2 in the Japanese and English versions of Weekly Shonen Jump simultaneously.
Togashi had gone on hiatus after his longest uninterrupted run of the manga in March 2012. Shueisha shipped the 32nd compiled volume in Japan in December 2012, and Viz Media just released the same volume in North America in April.
The manga inspired two television anime series including one that has been running since 2011. It also inspired two anime films and several original video anime titles.
