Hunter × Hunter manga has completed over 1000 days of hiatus. The manga is written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi. Hunter × Hunter went on hiatus after chapter 390 which was released on November 26, 2018.
Hunter × Hunter is considered as one of the finest shounen manga. Despite the hiatus popularity of Hunter × Hunter anime and manga keeps on increasing day by day.
Reason for hiatus:
Yoshihiro Togashi has been suffering from back problems. He has chronic pain in his back which makes him unable to draw manga chapters as it requires long sitting hours.
However, the good news is that the author has not given up on writing the manga and has said that he will try his best to finish the manga once his back problem is over
