I'm impressed at how in the "Bastard!!" series the covers seems to undergo a great change in design and the way they are done every three to four volumes. The latest covers are really well done though, so many details.

It is pretty natural to expect this kind of change of art in a manga published over 23 years. Hagiwara is so talented.

It is also natural to expect Togashi's teacher in the way of doing nothing to have zero releases in four years. Hagiwara is so lazy.

This is the main point that makes me wonder if I should really go ahead and read the series. It's in my reading list, I've read until ch4 and like it so far but knowing the author has been on hiatus for 4 years now and UJ makes no mention on when he'll ever come back is a major turn off towards the series.

Y'know, I found your comment interesting so I googled it. Hagiwara is Togashi's life coach. He introduced him to his wife, and the two of them are pretty much the only authors that work with Shuiesha (I use the term "work" very loosely), that do not have fixed schedules. That's pretty crazy.

It's funny how every issue of Ultra Jump still says that Bastard! is "absent this issue" instead of just saving themselves the ink by saying it's on hiatus in one issue and then forgetting about it. I remember it being the same with Grandeek Reel back when I bought the magazine, dunno if that's still a thing.

That's what they did for Anagle Mole back when it was on hiatus in WSS. Fukuchi even thanked them for not removing it entirely.

I wonder if this series has gotten any easier to read...
Hm, checking the latest chapter, I could recognize pretty much all of the kanjis (I knew the readings 90% of the time too) though the way they're combined obviously left me in the dark. Looking back at ch1, I can now recognize 90% of all the kanjis, the rest I don't know.
As a whole, I'd say the series has become easier to read (I forgot to mention ch1 had like 4 reference to the occult / exorcism - something you don't find in other chapters).

Good to know. I really like the art and character designs but I could barely read volume one. Maybe I should take another look at it. Where do you get the recent chapters?
