'Hunter X Hunter' chapter 361 spoilers news: Series to return in February 2017?

Fans of the Japanese manga series "Hunter X Hunter" will have to wait a little longer if they want to read a whole new chapter. The series is currently on hiatus and its return is not definite yet.

However, there are rumors going around claiming that the series may return in early 2017. Some even say that it will pick up at chapter 361 sometime in February. It's not confirmed but fans are hoping that it will make its return sooner.

As for the reason of its delay, reports say that "Hunter X Hunter's" author Yoshihiro Togashi decided to take a break from work in order to focus on his recovery. Togashi suffered a severe pain from the hips downwards which resulted in restriction in his movements as well as his inability to sit and write for a long period of time.

His health problem has also been the reason why he took a break back in 2013. He only returned to continue the series in 2015. Rumors have it that his present break will be longer than previous one as the 50-year old creator will need a lot of time to recover. But will Togashi really go back to doing more chapters for "Hunter X Hunter?"

According to recent speculations, the producers of the series are planning to drop Togashi and hire new scriptwriters. The fate of the comics is put in a difficult situation due to Togashi's absence and the producers may be resorting to convenient solutions in order to keep the story alive.

But if the big bosses of the manga series decide to obtain new writers and let Togashi retire, things may never be the same. It's predicted that new set of people working on the series will not be able to match the creativity and tone that Togashi has kept for so many years.

Fans who are looking forward to "Hunter X Hunter" chapter 361 will have to stay tuned for more updates.
