The One Punch Manmanga has become incredibly popular not only because of the quirky nature of overpowered Saitama but also because of the outstanding art by Yusuke Murata. Murata has done a commendable job with the digital remake of the story penned by ONE (Tomohiro). The art from Murata inOPMis beyond spectacular, and almost every chapter of the series astonishes fans with its art.
The perfection that each chapter ofOne Punch Manso proudly flaunts is precisely why Murata tends to follow a bi-weekly release schedule on Young Jump. That being said, this “perfection” comes at a heavy price, as the manga tends to go through several redraws, thus delaying the new chapters for several weeks. The redraws are so common thatOPMfans are accustomed to not getting a new chapter, even with the bi-weekly release schedule. However, it seems like the community will have to wait even longer for the upcoming chapter, as Murata has recently confirmed yet another hiatus, a rather long one this time.
One Punch ManManga Is Going On A Two-Month-Long Hiatus
TheOne Punch Manmanga series was stuck on theredraws of the Ninja Village arcfor more than a year, but Murata finally concluded that arc earlier this month. The Ninja Village arc went through the “redraw” phase for the third time, and since itfinallyconcluded, fans have been waiting to see the new chapter of the manga series. Sadly, though,Murata recently confirmed on Xthat, due to “some circumstances,” the manga is going on a two-month-long hiatus.This means that fans will have to wait until Jul 02, 2025, to witness what the artist has planned for the next chapter.
Murata hasn’t given fans the exact reason for this hiatus, but most fans understand why the artist wants to take a break. Keeping the art and redraws aside, the Ninja Village arc wasn’t exactly a good story point of the series. So, the community expects ONE and Murata to deliver a better story arc once the manga returns from hiatus. Obviously, a year-long loop of redraws was frustrating for many fans, but now that the story can actually advance and move past Ninja Village, fans expect ONE and Murata to use this break efficiently and plan out a stronger story arc.
Sorry for keeping you waiting. Due to various circumstances, the next update for the Tona Jump version of One Punch Man will be on Thursday, July 17th. We apologize for the inconvenience, but please wait a little longer.
There was a time whenOne Punch Manmanga broke the internetwith Saitama and Garou’s fight. The community couldn’t stop talking about the artistic manga panels of the entire fight. However, fans think the series went downhill with the Ninja Village arc. In fact, the constant cycle of redraws made many think that the manga was already on hiatus. Regardless,this two-month-long hiatus could actually be a good thing for the manga. Not only will it help build anticipation among fans for the next chapter, but it will also give ONE and Murata enough time to plan out much bigger and better things for the subsequent story arc.
