**Hunter x Hunter** finally has a return forecast for Brazilian fans. The mangaka **Yoshihiro Togashi** announced, through his X (formerly Twitter) account, that he has finished the artwork for chapter 427 of the famous manga series. With this news, which came to light on the last day of January 23, 2026, the expectation is that the work will resume its publications still in the spring of this year, ending a hiatus that began in December 2024. This return is highly relevant because Hunter x Hunter is one of the most acclaimed shonen series in history, with a legion of fans in Brazil who were eagerly awaiting news about the future of Gon Freecss’s story.
The direct announcement from the author, who posted an image confirming the completion of the work, ignited the community’s hope. The prolonged pause, which has already lasted more than a year, occurred mainly due to Togashi’s serious health problems, as he suffers from chronic back pain. However, with the mangaka’s recovery, the production process has resumed. Thus, the new chapters, which have been ready since chapter 411, should soon begin to be released by the publishers Shueisha and Viz Media, responsible for publication in Japan and the West, respectively.
## When will chapter 428 be released?
Although the excitement is great, fans still need a bit of patience. The most optimistic forecast, based on Togashi’s recent work pace, indicates that the manga should officially return between April and June 2026, that is, during the spring in the northern hemisphere. If Shueisha opts for a traditional weekly release, **chapter 428 of Hunter x Hunter** could arrive at newsstands and digital platforms around early August. However, it is important to remember that the publisher may adopt an irregular schedule to preserve the author’s health, which would make any specific date merely speculative.
The hiatus began shortly after the release of chapter 410, on December 8, 2024. At the time, Yoshihiro Togashi’s health condition worsened significantly, forcing an indefinite stop. Therefore, the current news is received with so much relief and euphoria. The community, which has followed the series for decades, knows that the quality of the narrative is worth the wait, but does not hide its anxiety to discover the developments of the saga in the Dark Continent. While awaiting the return of the new chapters, fans can revisit the story through the anime, available on streaming services like Crunchyroll and Netflix, or reread the already published manga.
