Hunter Hunter Hunter serial status
出典 : Amazon.co.jp
The serialization of “Hunter Hunter” began in 1998.
Among the manga currently serialized in “Weekly Shonen Jump”, it is the second longest serialization period after “One Piece” which started serialization in 1997.
However, there is a big difference in the number of episodes and volumes between “Hunter Hunter” which has been on hiatus and “One Piece” which is being serialized to great acclaim.
At present there are 968 episodes in “One Piece” and 95 volumes of the book. At present “Hunter Hunter” has 390 episodes and 36 volumes of books. The two titles only started their serials a year apart, but the difference shows how many “Hunter Hunter” books have been cancelled.
The series has been absent since Weekly Shonen Jump was released on November 26, 2018, and the series is expected to resume in 2020.
Just the decision to resume the series has been trending on Twitter, and it’s still very popular with readers.
The series has finally resumed! It’s not long before I’m rejoicing that my work is sometimes published as a name. We are grateful for the opportunity to be published in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine.
The number of times “Hunter Hunter” has been cancelled

Hunter Hunter” is the most absent from “Weekly Shonen Jump”, but how many times has it been absent?
From 1998, when the series began, to 2019, we looked at the number of times the series has been cancelled over a 21-year period with a fixed number of breaks. The result is 392 times for the series and 660 times for the rest of the year.
The number of suspensions started to increase around 2006. Since then, the number of times a manga is not published due to hiatuses has increased more than the number of times it is published, as was the case in 2019, it’s not uncommon for a manga to not be published even once in a year.
The longest period of absence so far has been two years and two months. Two read-outs were published during this period, so it’s not zero for publication as The Hunter Hunter, but the story hasn’t progressed at all. It’s surprising that it’s supposed to be a weekly series, but it won’t be published for about two years.
I just hope the serialization resumes in 2020 so that the record for the longest hiatus is not broken.
