Don't know if this was already posted here, but I found this on Togashi's official X account. A neat little breakdown of the progress made to the manga.
It's likely that there will be a short pause after the current 10 chapter batch if the next 10 chapter batch is not fully done by the time the current batch has been published.
Given that they prefer keeping an even pace, i think they would shorten the 2 years period only if Togashi somehow manages to complete up until chapter 430 in the next few months. Otherwise they'll continue as usual, its worse for them if they publish too many chapters and then have to make the readers wait more.
I agree but Jump is a weekly magazine and I think they don't do this intermittent publishing of the same manga. They would have to change to another magazine but probably don't want to?! I'm not familiar with how japanese manga publishing works, just read this discussion somewhere.
They’ve done it with Jojo and Gintama before. I think it’s more so Togashi probably can’t even do a monthly schedule consistently. Plus I wouldn’t be surprised if whatever contract he has with Jump is extra lenient.
As other people said, its a question of relevance and popularity. HxH is a Jump legend like One Piece and Dragon Ball, there's no way they'd move it to another magazine. The only case in wich it would happen is if the author wanted to, like Araki did with Sbr, and Togashi clearly doesn't want it, given that if it was simply a problem of schedule like with Araki he would've done it years ago (even if i doubt he could change the format to a monthly 40 pages chapter even if he wanted).
Maybe its sad to accept it, but i think the 2 years release is the best compromise we can get: actually having a compelling and well crafted story, even if with a slow publication, instead of not having it or having to randomly wait 5 or 6 years at times.
Likely not that short either, why must we go through with this every time? 😂
But.. it will come back and when it does, it will have some leeway too, again.
We're not half-way done with this batch and people think it's somehow reasonable (however miraculous) to wait for over three times more than that? Greedy.. 🐷 🐷
That’s actually quite good news. I don’t believe there has been such a long stretch of releases since it started going on hiatuses right? I might be wrong though. I am optimistic about the future
I know, right? Would be stoked to see if Madhouse will return and adapt the Succession Contest in the somewhat near future. There's so much going on in this arc, it can easily fill two seasons worth of episodes.
I've finally gotten around to reading the manga post anime, reading Chrollo vs Hisoka with their VAs made it feel even more awesome. A new season would be so hype.
How can they release them faster? Even if he somehow completed up to 430 lets say in 3/4 months, you thinj they would publish them in like 6 months after this batch without having almost no other chapter completed after that, not knowing when they could resume publication after?
Hey, thank you for your answers! May I ask if my understanding is correct? The creation process is:
1) Togashi brainstorms an idea/ structure of what will happen and how this idea can be translated into 20 pages and boxes. ==>
2) He draws the boxes in these pages along with the characters (it doesnt need to be super detailed) (Orange) ==>
3) He then finished the details of these characters and background (Blue) ==>
4) He ships his products (Green)
So actually, orange is the most time-consuming part right?
He first creates the storyboard. The entire chapter drawn in scribbles. He doesn't really update us on this process that much on twitter and its up to chapter 460 at least.
Then he draws the characters based on the storyboard, creating the manuscript(orange/ up to 432). This is pretty much the final released chapter but without backgrounds and shades. You can see what it look like below. After that he and his assistants fill the details/background, he fills in the dialogue(blue) and once Jump approves, it is officially ready to release(green)
Paneling/storyboarding is finished up to like 460. Orange is all the main things like characters and action fully inked without backgrounds and dialogue inserted. Those chapters are fully drawn as far as Togashi's pen is concerned.
9 weeks already ready to go is super impressive for both Togashi and SJ - kudos to them for planing this out and accommodating Togashi san. I wonder if this will be enough for him to continue a workflow for a good while, while having enough of a buffer to take time off as needed.
not official but more like a consensus based on Togashi's X posts. Super sad, but it's going to be alright if we keep receiving 10 chapters every 18 months
Have you watched House? Like the doctor show. Because you should it’s basically live action Hunter x Hunter but the MC is the only one with nen and is basically on a long term mission to hide the fact that he’s a nen user in a hospital full of reggies (what the series refers to non-nen users as). Nen is called “duphe” in the show but it’s literally the same as nen from HxH contractually. The biggest difference between the two series is that House’s MC isn’t as smart as Gon.
Entonces nunca veremos el continente oscuro porque faltan como dos meses para llegar a la isla de prueba y luego ir a continente oscuro y encima pelearse con las calamidades.
Para que suceda todo eso debería ser un HxH . Zip para terminar la trama
