Hunter x Hunter might have been out of the spotlight for years, thanks to an injury that creator Yoshihiro Togashi suffered thanks to his manga career, but the manga recently returned with new chapters continuing the Succession Contest Arc. With the artist hard at work when it comes to new installments in the hunter universe, Togashi once again took to his Twitter account to offer a big milestone for his manga when it comes to an upcoming chapter.

Yoshihiro Togashi’s absence from what many consider to be his tour de force in his artistic career was a result of the injuries that he received thanks in part to his dedication to creating manga. As the artist revealed in a past social media posting, he can only draw in a very specific way moving forward, thanks to the back problems that he suffers on a regular basis following his long work in the industry. While Togashi hasn’t revealed how many additional chapters he’ll be working on, his commitment to returning to the Shonen franchise and weaving new stories that follow the universe of hunters should be applauded by anime fans worldwide.
Hunter x Hunter 400
Yoshihiro Togashi once again shared a new update on his Official Socia Media, revealing the big news that he has recently completed the four-hundredth chapter of Hunter x Hunter’s manga, as the Succession Contest Arc continues giving the series some wild battles that threaten the world at large:
Hunter x Hunter’s manga might have made a comeback, but the anime adaptation is still missing in action. Coming to an end with the Election Arc thanks to Studio Madhouse nearly a decade ago, there will be plenty of material to bring to the small screen should Togashi’s work ever return to the anime format. Rest assured, should Togashi’s popular series make its way to the anime format, there will be plenty of fans anxious to once again watch the hunters’ universe unfold.
