Discussion Hiatus X Hiatus

[MSofAofCOCA]

Well, even if Togashi drops HxH now, I can at least recommend the anime to friends since they chopped it right before we got into DC arc. At least my friends can be spared! T-T

 

[shionoro]

The good thing is, togashi has never delived 0 chapters in a year. That means he will be back before 2016.
The only time something similar to this happened at least we got the kurapica special.

I think togashi would be better at keeping pace when he was author of a webcomic and could release whenever he feels like without having to contact anyone else.

Anyway, my prediction of him being back between february and march sucked hard, so, my new prediction is september.

 

[duerlin]

I have more hope in Togashi finishing his work than George RR Martin. Imho the monthly serialization would be the best solution for him.

 

[shionoro]

I do think both will eventually finish what they set out to do.

With Togashi, i am not afraid about him having a writer's block.
I think Togashi has the next two arcs planned out in great detail, it is more a motivational and medical problem with finishing them.

Basically, Togashi makes the Manga more complicated in every arc since Greed Island.
Someone who is sick of what he does or has no fresh ideas wouldn't willingly make it harder for himself and then miss a good ending point like when gon met gin to finish the manga.

The beginning of the dark continent arc was very text heavy, introduced a lot of new characters and dashed in a whole new dimension of politics and intrigue which is definitely harder to write properly than having a tight focus on two main characters like we had when we followed gon and killuah.

Togshi does not deliver a lot of chapters, but I do not doubt his ambition.

I've read enough mangas where the Author lost his ambition or vision at some point (YYH being one of them), but HxH is none of them.
And as long as an author has ambitions, he will likely finish his work unless he dies unexspectedly.

Still waiting?

 

[shionoro]

yup, that won't change for at least 4 months, too

 

[Manta33]

yup, that won't change for at least 4 months, too

Haha, based on what? I think it will be a lot sooner actually. Sailor Moon is about to wrap up which means Naoka will not be so busy. They're a family in a high stress industry. I am sure there is a bit of give and take when one of them is working hard. Plus, neither one needs to work another day in their respective lives.

 

[dougbp]

I think that it's funny how some guys here act like they all know Togashi well.

Togashi is a charade.
No one can know what he is getting through, neither if he's just too lazy. Actually, Jump does what he asks.

If he wants to get back tomorrow, he will. If he wants to get back after 5/6 months, he will.

Unfortunely, we just have to accept that. I know that sucks, but he works like that.

What it sucks the most is the fact that HxH always have balls to be top #2 in WSJ. Who knows if Togashi were a serious guy.. At least I think that he is much better than Oda. But, Oda does one thing he doesn't: continuity. Maybe we're going to see this at someday by Yoshihiro. /laugh

 

[shionoro]

Well you can deduce some stuff about him judging from the interviews he gave.

The reason why i think he wont return until august or september is that we already have july in some days and even after the message that he returns it takes some time for the chapter to come out.

Also togashi hs a tendency to return in the second have of the year after july.

 

[hokageji]

The last chapter was published in August. While it is true he does as he pleases, i think he might make a comeback before august this year...atleast 10 chapters for this year

 

[shionoro]

It is getting really bad guys.
Today i was in a comic book store and someone mentioned that he had to wait 3 months (gasp) for the new issue of something, and then i started pestering him by bablling nonstop about the HxH hiatus until he was finally a ble to escape....

 

[Bonefist]

Ahah, Togashi is a joke. We can rant about his laziness, or his backache, he will not come faster.

In my bad faith, I will say that he could have at least delegate the drawings to a drawer, even to his wife. A backache never stopped someone to write a story...

 

[hokageji]

I think he should just move to monthly serialization, and even if he comes up with 6 issues in a year, that would be OK, like one every two months.

 

[shionoro]

But that would mean less HxH than we get now

We usually get at least 10 chapters per year.

 

[leiatte]

shionoro, 6 monthly chapters are usually like 12 weekly chapters by the fact Monthly chapters usually have about 40 pages a chapter

 

[shionoro]

Maybe. But it's not like Togashi would keep a regular schedule anyway, whether monthly, weekly or yearly.

A good possible solution would be releasing full tankubons when they are ready, but this ust isnt how he seems to work.

As long as we still get our ten chapters starting this year i am fine.

I can live with ten chapters a year even if i would want much more.

So far the only year which was really bad was 2014 with only the two kurapica special chapters released.
In all other years we always got some chapters, so i am positive that serialization will start in december or sooner.

I might quit writing manga and finally follow my dream of becoming a professional splatoon player.

and forgot about everething ,,,

 

[shionoro]

as i said, it is probable that we are gonna get the chapter in december.
We won't get it later than that but i also doubt that we will get it earlier than that.

I exspect to hear about HxH resuming between september and november.

I am absolutely fine with that if it's 20 chapters this time.

 

[Rezard]

Haha dat fake togashi troll account.
