So, it isn’t a surprise at all to know thatHorikoshi wants to return to Jump as soon as possibleand has already begun working on his new manga. Horikoshi is repeatedly very intrigued by horror stories, so his new manga could have an element of it included. Here’s what Horikoshi has stated about his next manga previously:
I feel really lucky over the success of MHA, so I know there’s a lot of pressure around my next move. I’m planning to start a new manga as soon as I possibly can. I was thinking of committing myself to simply drawing my next project, and letting someone else write the story, but my editor advised me ‘It will be better if you do it all yourself.’ With that in mind, I’ve slowly started writing and drawing the thumbnails of my next manga. — Horikoshi
