Kagurabachi Manga to Go on Hiatus

Kagurabachi will go on a short hiatus and return in Issue 30. Issue 30 will come out in Japan on June 23, 2025. [Thanks, ryokutya2089!]

The last chapter of Kagurabachi to come out in the weekly magazine was Chapter 82. That one was in the June 9, 2025 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump. As for the reason behind the hiatus, it’s because mangaka Takeru Hokazono needs a break for health reasons. Though there aren’t any details or specifics, it’s likely not a serious ailment if he’s going to return at the end of the month.

Kagurabachi is a manga that started serialization in September 2023. It’s an action and fantasy series that follows Chihiro, the son of a famous swordsmith. Though he aspires to become a swordsmith in the future, his life takes a tragic turn after his father’s murder. With sword in hand, Chihiro embarks on a journey to take revenge on the killers. The manga is highly popular not only for its artwork and story, but also from Internet memes that circled around it on English social media. As of the time of writing, it’s the 9th most popular manga on Shueisha’s Mangaplus. It’s just behind Sakamoto Days and Spy x Family.

The Kagurabachi manga will go on hiatus until Issue 30 of Weekly Shonen Jump, which will come out on June 23, 2025.
