Hooray! Done With Hiatus And On With The Story

Today, while browsing the net for interesting things to read, I came across something super exciting. After around one year of waiting, I got to read the latest chapter of Hunter X Hunter :) yay! I just found out today but apparently, it was released on December 24th last year. Well, better late than never :) I had to re-read the whole chimera arc all over again to remember the story, but it was worth it. Hunter X Hunter is one of my all time favorite manga. For those of you who don't know what Hunter X Hunter is, it's basically a story of a boy named Gon who finds out the identity of his father Gin, the greatest Hunter in the world. In order to meet his father, Gon wants to follow his footsteps and become a Hunter. In the process, he meets his friends Kilua, Kurapika, and Leorio. Each of them have their own reasons for wanting to become a hunter... and the story continues.

Hunter X Hunter has had a lot of haituses (is that a word? :D) since it started. Reports say that the author, Yoshihiro Togashi had an "unspecified illness" and had to go on hiatus. Lots of rumors have been spreading regarding on why he had to take a break. Some say he's a lazy good for nothing bum, and some people say he needs some rest to get those creative juices flowing.
Well, as for me, I'm just glad he's up and writing again. Let's just hope that during his hiatus he did some brainstorming on how the story will be for Gon and his buddies, and how it's gonna be awesome.
