October 1st 2024.
Hey there, readers! We have some unfortunate news for all you Rurouni Kenshin fans out there. It seems like the beloved manga series will be taking a break for a while. Yes, you heard it right! After missing several issues, Nobuhiro Watsuki's Rurouni Kenshin: The Hokkaido Arc will be going on an indefinite hiatus.
For those of you who are eagerly waiting for the second season of the second Rurouni Kenshin TV series, the "Kyoto Disturbance" arc, we have some bad news. The premiere, which was scheduled for October 4, will not be happening as swordsman Himura Kenshin is set to make his anime return. Unfortunately, he will be disappearing from the manga world for an undetermined amount of time.
The official Twitter account of monthly manga anthology Jump Square, which carries the currently ongoing Rurouni Kenshin: The Hokkaido Arc series, has posted an announcement stating that the manga will be going on an indefinite hiatus due to creator Nobuhiro Watsuki's health issues. We understand that this news may come as a disappointment to many of you, but the health and well-being of the creators are of utmost importance.
The statement released by Jump Square expresses their gratitude to all the readers who have been following Rurouni Kenshin: The Hokkaido Arc. It also mentions that the series has been on hiatus since June 2024, and the editing department has been working towards producing the next chapter every month. However, after discussing with Watsuki, they have come to the decision that a period of rest will be the best way to ensure a stable and continuous resumption of its serialization.
The statement also mentions that the end of the hiatus will be announced through Jump Square and their official X account. We apologize to all the readers who have been eagerly waiting for the next chapter and hope for your continued support for Rurouni Kenshin: The Hokkaido Arc.
For those wondering about Watsuki's health issues, no specific details have been given. However, considering that Jump Square has made the hiatus official, it is unlikely that we will see any new chapters for at least a few months. We hope that Watsuki takes the time he needs to recover and come back stronger than ever.
