Hunter x Hunter Manga

The official website of Weekly Shonen Jump revealed Wednesday that Togashi’s Hunter x Hunter manga will resume June 26th. The manga’s 34th volume will also release on the same day.

The manga had been on a two-year hiatus since 2014, before it was resumed in April 2016. Then Hunter x Hunter went on indefinite hiatus last June, only two months after resuming. While fans are excited for the series’ return, they are also skeptical as to how long it is actually returning for.
