Hunter x Hunter is Coming Back
On May 24th, 2022, the mangaka went online on Twitter to confirm that he is working on the next four chapters of Hunter x Hunter. At first, no one was sure if Togashi's account was legit. However, Yusuke Murata, the author of One Punch Man, was following this new account on Twitter, and he also retweeted the post regarding the manga's continuation.
After that, Murata tweeted that he'll confirm if Togashi's account was real or not through his next post. Well, it didn't take Murata that long to confirm that it is indeed Togashi himself who created the new account. So, we can say that the information regarding Hunter x Hunter's return is also accurate.
The English translation of Tagoshi's first post says, "For now, four chapters left." So, it's safe to say that for now, the author is working on the following four chapters of the manga series. That said, we don't have any information on the exact date for the release of the new chapter. Nevertheless, we might have some new updates regarding the manga's continuation in the coming days, and we'll update this post accordingly.
