Major Shonen Jump Series Takes Unexpected Hiatus Ahead of Anime’s Debut

Following the release of Chapter 44 on January 25, 2026, the manga took a one-month break before returning with Chapter 45 on March 8, 2026. The author announced on X (formerly Twitter) that the next chapter will be released on April 27th, Japan Standard Time. Although the official reason for the pause hasn’t been stated, it’s probably due to the author’s health, which has caused previous breaks. Given the manga’s irregular release schedule, this isn’t an unusually long hiatus, even though it followed a dramatic cliffhanger.
