This year's 45th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine will announce on Monday that Hideaki Sorachi's Gintama manga will not appear on the magazine that week due to the author's sudden illness. The magazine's editorial staff apologized to the readers.
The manga is slated to return after two weeks in Weekly Shonen Jump's 47th issue on October 19, but depending on when the details are decided, the magazine will post more information on the official Weekly Shonen Jump website.
Shueisha published the manga's 60th volume on August 4, which had sold 313,354 copies by its third week.
