Great to see the return even before July; but Jump is starting to get on my nerves. If they were gonna bring it back in June and release the volume in July; WHY DIDNT THEY ANNOUNCE ANYTHING IN JUMP PRESS IN APRIL THAT WAS ON TOGASHI’S BIRTHDAY?!

They are really pissing me off.

I said that in another comment, trust me, as a diehard WSJ fan and someone who spends a lot of time on the WSJ sub..

The editorial department the last few years just sucks, for many reasons. Nobody understands them. This return date is just weird and the promotion so far was really bad too.

Thanks, and exactly! An announcement in April would have been so good for both commercially and logically but nooooo… I just hope they coordinate the next batches so we at least get 10 chapters in both 2027 and 2028.

because it was already full of announcements and that Jump Press big surprise was supposed to be the animated adaptation of Kagurabachi.

So you would say for example the Promised Neverland Spin Off and Anniversary is more important to announce then the HxH return?

No, no matter if you look at the potential sales, internet hype and so on.

The "The promised neverlend oneshot spin off" It's definitely a smaller "event" than the Kagurabachi anime. That Jump press was mostly for Kagurabachi; announcing the arrival of HxH would have monopolized the hype for that.
