Eh, I feel like Heaven's Arena did that better. Also goddammit I thought this had come back from hiatus! :cry:

God I felt the same way. Saw the thread bump and raised my hopes.

What is going on with this hiatus, he had a good pattern going and now it’s gone to poo poo all over again. I just want to see the outcome of the succession war and the Dark Continent goddamit

Watched YYH for the first time last year (read it years ago) and when me and the husbo wanted more I got to be all "ok but what if there *was* more." YYH WAS just so killer front to back and honestly my only complaint for it was that it ended lmao

[The deep end] is a podcast about adult swim's history featuring a lot of the writers and their episode on YYH is really good. Fun mix of professional insider stuff and people just excited to talk about their personal formative media.

if you read any of his earlier works, like Level E, you'd see the kernel that would be tournament arcs and greed island.

That you believe HxH will ever be done, and even more, that Togashi will be able to make another manga afterwards, is incredibly optimistic and I wish I could have that kind of unrealistically positive outlook on my life.

So this year I watched the 2012 anime and then read manga for the first time ever to get current on this series. I so desperately want more, but I fear that Togashi is permanently burned out because this arc alone is so ambitious. There are a lot of questions even from the Chimera Ant arc that are going unresolved, and that feels bad because this and MHA are the best shoenen I've experienced. I'm at least thankful that I got to blast through everything while it was still on hiatus, so the wait hasn't been as bad but yeah.

Just wanted to get that out there and also give false hope of an update to anyone with the thread bookmarked.

Basically HxH got picked up for a live action adaptation, so Togashi got in a fight with Uwe Boll about it, and won, but at the cost of his spine.

This is not the longest Hiatus yet that Togashi has done. Until we breach the CA hiatus I'm not really worried about how long.

I would be better able to deal with this long rear end Hiatus x Hiatus if Togashi would do like he promised and at least clean up all the drat art. Argh! The loving story had an end (and it was a good end) and he decided to keep going.

I just finished the 2011 anime. drat, what a good show. Guess I need to start collecting/reading the manga now so I can be disappointed by there being little progress in the current arc like everyone else is!

God, Ging just sucks so much. He makes Goku look like a helicopter parent.

There is a reason that Leorio punching him was almost enough to win him a presidency.

the non-anime chapters show that ging is an unparalleled genius in countless subjects, but he's also such a selfish dirtbag that no one really knows or cares

gon kept meeting people who talked about how impressive ging is, but after ging actually showed up it became very obvious that most of them were selectively lying about what kind of person he was. the people who talked to gon about ging all liked gon, after all.

Oh yeah and the new chapter's out. 45 new characters but every chapter will have Leorio from here on in. Also Togashi died but handed off the torch to his efficient young protege, George R. R. Martin.

I hate you all for giving me hope that new chapters were announced.

I’d rather talk about whether a nen ability is an emission or conjurer type than experience this pain.

I always hope it’s a new chapter because that means Togashi is feeling better :(

Also I reread the OP and got a good chuckle out of Teddy Bomber since that flew over my head before.

Lol at anyone getting their hopes up for a new chapter. Just abandon all hope and maybe something will happen.

I saw 17 new posts in this thread and my first thought was "What the hell are people talking about now?", with the slim possibility of actual new chapters only occurring to me a couple seconds later, and being mostly dismissed before I even opened the thread.

I'm pretty sure that whenever Togashi deems us worthy of a new chapter again, it'll take me two weeks to actually read it because "new HxH chapter" doesn't parse as something real.
