One-Punch Man is the latest long-running manga set to take an unexpected hiatus. Ablogon publisher Shueisha’s Tonari no Young Jump manga website announced today that Yusuke Murata’s One-Punch Man manga will take a two month pause due to “various adjustments and preparations,” with the series returning in late August.
This comes just a couple of weeks after the announcement thatboth the Jujutsu Kaisen and My Hero Academia manga would also be pausing, albeit only for a few weeks, while it was revealed yesterday that theElden Ring mangawould be skipping an issue in July due to its creator, Nikiichi Tobita, apparently wanting to take some time out to play the game’s latest DLC,Shadow of the Erdtree. Earlier this year One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda alsotook a short breakto figure out the future of the manga.
