Hunter x Hunter Sees Hisoka Return After Years of Absence

By Nick Valdez

Hunter x Hunter has finally returned to the pages of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine with new chapters after several years of waiting, and the newest chapter of the series has made things all the more spicy by finally bringing Hisoka back to the series too! Yoshihiro Togashi has officially returned to the magazine following the longest hiatus in the series' history to date, and the first chapter of this new era threw fans right back into the thick of the ongoing Succession Contest arc. But unfortunately, that also meant that it's still going to be some time before we get to see our fan favorites in action.

But the previous chapter of the new releases also laid the groundwork for a potential return from Hisoka as a new plan was hatched to catch the famous foe. Following so many teases of the villain potentially being somewhere in the midst of the Black Whale ship, or maybe even being in some sort of disguise, the newest chapter of the series has officially brought Hisoka back and he was really just walking around like everyone else. He's been having no trouble sneaking around apparently. 

What Happens in Hunter x Hunter Chapter 392? 

Chapter 392 of Hunter x Hunter continues the Xi-Yu mafia members trying to enact their plan to catch Hisoka, and although they had laid the groundwork for a plan that would comb the entire ship in the hopes of finding the foe in some kind of crevice somewhere, Zakuro and Lynch end up just walking by him. After trying to confront him, the two of them are easily taken out by Hisoka's overwhelming pressure. He's got no idea the mafia are after him, and thus Zakuro offers to take him with them to find out more.

Now that Hisoka is back in the mix, it seems like the Succession Contest will be reaching a turning point soon within this latest new batch of chapters. That means before the series goes on hiatus again we might have a good idea of what to expect from the future! Now's the time to catch up too, and you can find Hunter x Hunter's manga now available through Viz Media's digital Shonen Jump library.
