It’s the news that all Hunter x Hunter fans have been waiting for years: the cult manga by Yoshihiro Togashi will finally have a sequel in 2024! And to top it off, the author has already finished several chapters and revealed an ending for his work. In this article, we will give you all the information you need to know about this big comeback.
TOGASHI BACK IN SHAPE
Togashi announced his return on Twitter on May 1st, showing that he was working on chapter 405 of Hunter x Hunter (the last one released was chapter 400). He also indicated that his health was improving, which is excellent news as his back problems had caused many delays in the publication of the manga. Since then, he has been regularly posting his progress on social media and has even received support from Yusuke Murata, the illustrator of One-Punch Man.
GON BECOMES A SUPERPOWERFUL HUNTER
In the ending revealed by Togashi, we learn that Gon has become a superpowerful and legendary Hunter. He has regained his powers and reached a level never seen before. However, he will not meet his childhood friend Kirua right away. To challenge Gon, a formidable opponent is needed, and that’s where Jairro, the most enigmatic character in the manga, comes in. He will spread chaos and evil in the world, which will require a sequel to Hunter x Hunter to answer all the pending questions.
GON’S MARRIAGE AND THE BIRTH OF HIS DAUGHTER
Another big revelation: Gon is married and has a daughter named Jean. In Togashi’s ending, we see Jean fishing near a lake, where Gon had caught the master of the pond in the very first episode. However, unlike her grandfather, Jean does not wish to become a Hunter and prefers to stay on Whale Island, Gon’s native island.
UNRESOLVED MYSTERIES
In addition to the confrontation between Gon and Jairro, the sequel to Hunter x Hunter will have to answer many questions left pending in the manga. For example, who is Donfx? What is the real objective of the unpredictable Paristone? And above all, what secrets are hidden in the Dark Continent?
AN UNBEARABLE WAIT
It will still take two years to discover the sequel to Hunter x Hunter, but the wait will surely be worth it. Togashi has proven in the past that he is capable of creating unforgettable characters and plots, and he will have a heart to end his work in the best possible way. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to reread the first chapters of Hunter x Hunter to get back into the swing of things!
In summary, the big return of Hunter x Hunter in 2024 is news that will delight all fans of the series. With an ending revealed by the author himself and emblematic characters back, this sequel promises to be epic. However, it will still take patience to be able to discover the new chapters. In the meantime, feel free to share this article with your Hunter x Hunter fan friends!
