Now what you should of done, is each week posted a report titled "Hunter X Hunter hiatus delayed for another week" since it not being on hiatus is the more surprising news, everyone already knew about this before it was even announced.

It really is unbelievable to see how many people treat him as a lazy bastard, when this guy obviously is suffering from to day to night with his back pain. He is not obligated to do anything you guys write and if he wants to write and draw his story himself than it's his own decision. And he has the right to do so. It really is amusing to see so many people claiming something and pretending like they have the right to get another chapter when the most people are reading it illegal at some internet page anyway. I know that it's frustrating to wait and I'm not really affected either because I'm not the biggest fan of the manga but some people really need to chill. All these "he needs to hire artists" or he needs to this or that. Nope. He doesn't have to do anything. Give this man a rest and let him to what he wants with his own project. If you don't like it, don't read it. Simple.

Well, looks like "My Hero Academia" and I guess "One Piece" are back to being the only weekly manga to justify subscribing to Weekly Shonen Jump for.

He lasted 10 chapters for the record. Not bad and good ones at that too. Check yo self before you wreck yo self Togashi, good call. See you in 18 months or so and the Weekly SJ is dead to me till then. The new Orochimaru special was good though.

Some of the comments here, not many, are really negative and mean. He has given his fans so much over the years, and yet, when he struggles in life, this is the way you guys react? I don't even read the manga, but reading stuff like that baffles me.

Another great run! The fight between Hisoka and Chrollo was godly and I enjoyed the bit of exposition we got with Kurapika and the princes. I hope the wait isn't too long this time.

Its called entitlement.
There are also his comments after that, which say he was losing weight and working with a trainer to better his health.
What a baffling post. |

Honestly, Togashi should just do what Toriyama's doing with Dragon Ball these days. Write the plot and hand it off to Madhouse so they can animate it. It'd be a lot less effort and drawing for him.

If the mangaka was your friend suffering from this severe medical condition you all wouldn't be treating him like this.
For those who want him to quit, Why? If this is the only thing (outside of a significant other) that brings joy to his life, go for it. With chronic pain and being practically bedridden, each chapter completed would seem like a miracle from god. It probably is good for his mental health. |

Because he wants to do it himself. its different from Toriyama who finished his series 20 years ago and he really doesn't need to touch it anymore. |

Unless Togashi's health deteriorates to the point where drawing HxH is an impossibility, it'll never be cancelled. It's still extremely profitable and people support it despite the hiatuses because the story's very good. There's zero benefit to getting rid of it currently. Second of all, while it sucks that other authors work hard, some barely managing to stay in and others cancelled, that isn't really on Togashi, who's already been through the grind to become an established mangaka in the first place.
I don't think Togashi is being lazy or egotistical; despite being in bad health, he still wants to write and draw his manga. And personally, if I was a mangaka, I wouldn't want someone else to take over my art. I'd like to draw it the way I want it to be drawn, it's my story and my vision. I enjoy it when HxH comes out, and when it goes back on hiatus, I read something else. That's all there is to it. While I understand the frustration, the mentality of constantly worrying about hiatuses looming over the horizon or whether it'll be finished degenerates discussion of this series at times (countless Dragon Quest jokes, calling Togashi a lazy bastard, how he shouldn't be supported and it goes on and on). Finally, I hope Togashi gets better. |

Health issues or not, it must be a pretty sucking feeling for Hunter x Hunter fans to have to put up with this crap. Makes me glad that I don't have any huge attachment to the series, which is a shame because it is pretty damn entertaining despite all the BS surrounding its creator and its infrequent release schedule. I know a lot of people are really negative and burnt about the whole thing, then you have other people who are defending him and saying the hate is unjustified. My opinion is if Togashi really is crippled as the internet makes him about to be, sucks for him, but the way he's just treating Hunter x Hunter as some sort of past time that he can just do in small spurts on a whim is just making his fans extremely bitter and making people hate him all the more. It's causing many to lose faith in him, and making people think he doesn't care about the fans of the series, otherwise he would do his best to work with others in putting out more Hunter x Hunter on a more consistent basis.
I understand he wants to do everything himself, but one man can only do so much, especially someone who is apparently in poor health as he is, so his actions come across as extremely selfish and non-caring towards the fans. No wonder he gets as much as hate as he does. I'm surprised a legion of fans don't assemble together and march towards his home carrying pitchforks and torches. I'd be pretty disgruntled too if my favorite series kept getting treated like some fleeting past time. |
