Unfinished works and hiatuses aren't uncommon in the world of manga, but it appears popular series Hunter x Hunter might actually return to the fray. After a four-year hiatus, Yoshihiro Togashi, the manga artist behind the battle shonen anime, took to Twitter to give an update.
The sudden surprise caught fans off guard, with some of them suspecting the authenticity of the account. That's a valid concern, considering that the mangaka's username features a string of random numbers and letters, similar to the fake accounts on the platform. In a quote retweet, Murata said that he was "with the man himself," which lends credibility to the tweet.
Dark fantasy manga Berserk, for instance, was delayed multiple times and will now remain unfinished after its creator Kentaro Miura passed on last year. Boxing series Hajime no Ippo is another example, with chapters going live too irregularly that it becomes difficult to keep up with the latest happenings.
