''Hunter X Hunter'' manga series is one of the most popular Japanese series which published ten chapters after a long hiatus of the writer Yoshihiro Togashi. It is rumored that the season 3 of the anime series based on this manga will be aired in 2017.

Togashi's failing health and back problems were cited as the reason behind the manga being stopped as he could not write any chapters since June 8, 2014, when he finally wrote chapter 349. Again this year Weekly Shōnen Jump started publishing from chapter 349 which was named as ''The Princes.'' Chapter 360 was published on June 30, and again there seems to be a long hiatus. All the chapters of the manga series are uploaded on Manga Panda.
