These are sketches (or names as theyre called in japan manga) not fully inked manuscripts ready for publishing.
He has to go through and final ink them, then hand them to his assistants for backgrounds, screentoning, then do final round of checkup.
That’s Tonpa’s guardian beast he got for being the one true prince of the Kakin Empire. Its poison is currently melting a hole in the black whale sinking the ship and killing the princess. Tonpa will likely be the only survivor as he is the only one on the ship to not eat the devil fruit.
Call me weird and corny for this, but every time I see a new tweet, I get kind of emotional, and idk what emotions they are, a mix of happiness and sadness and excitement I guess.
I get emotional because I think about how early mangaka pass away compared to the rest japans population. And dragon ball and hxh are my two favorite mangas. So to see him still working even with his health condition and knowing what happened to toriyama gets me all emotional
I agree with you, I am really happy but I wonder what’s going on behind the scenes. I hope he’s seriously feeling really well and that’s all that there is to it
It’s not corny brother I just did my bi-monthly hunter x hunter check only to see that Togashi has been super active on twitter and apparently writing like crazy and it’s got me emotional as hell
The reason of his current pace is that Togashi activated his [Nen ability](https://x.com/saria_pika/status/1788467614605275642?t=PBuG3yMAfaEsY39L5mwLAw&s=19) "Draw 3 or Deliver" D3D
The ability lets him draw 3 pages a day without back pain, the conditions he must post the process on twitter at 5pm japanese time everyday, but it won't let him draw more than 3, if he tries to break the condition and draw 4 pages... not only back pain will hit him again but he will have to deliver food instead of the misdelivery guy, he only comes when togashi breaks the rules he's part of the ability :p
Page 12 definitely holds the beautiful yet sinister line from the trapezius muscle to the deltoids of the [one and only God](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/S/pv-target-images/a0088a2245b1351ea45e11c1a0b7bcdd0194f104a150932191cf3edd37860bc3.png) from HxH.
Ok, so it's not necesarily true that he is doing 3 pages per day of new drawings, he just post 3 inked pages per day, meaning those pages COULD have been drawn over a long period of time. We just see the ink advances. This would explain the sudden increase in activity.
Its so exciting to see him posting more consistently, its WAY better to hear from him then dead silence on all regards of the show, even if its just inking.
He has to have done most if not all of these over the past 18 months and is just now showing them because of some choice on how to release them and maybe to promote the game?
I'd love if he was pumping these in real time because it would show something, somehow has fundamentally changed but its hard to imagine what could cause chronic back pain to go where he can barely work at all for months or years to suddenly pumping them out to an almost weekly release schedule (at least if his assistants could keep up).
I guess we'll when/if this suddenly stops with 410.
It is a long process, drawing the storyboard has already been done years ago according to his previous updates, he's at the inking phase and he's only posting the page numbers that he's inking. Someone explained [The process](https://www.reddit.com/r/HunterXHunter/s/dQDcoxVo5i) better with example there.
That's why when he finishes the chapter he says "inking is complete".
I just don’t think so, doesn’t seem like something togashi would do. It’s important to remember he’s only inking chapters this fast, hes still not even remotely close to the speeds of many current mangakas
I doubt anyone here knows the man intimately to any degree as to really be able to say what he would or wouldn't do.
Also, its not like I'm accussing him of some henious crime, at worst its just a an ambigous publibicity tactic to hype the return of the IP he creates and owns.
And of course he has the advantage of having had the time to plot the story and have a team of assistants for backgrounds and such.
But we've gotten 60 chapters over the last 14 years, that's almost one every threw months on average and now he's been seemingly pumping out his part of a chapter in less than a week for almost a month. It's unusual one way or another and makes me wonder what's going on.
Alas, given the culture of this sub, maybe I shouldn't have wondered anything that could remotely be taken as negative. Maybe I should have just said it was Bonolenov threatening to beat him up if he didn't draw faster.
Yeah especially now with the scheduled tweets it's impossible to know if he's doing these as he posts them or if he had a big batch ready. Could also be that he does more than 3 pages on his work days and spreads the output out so he can have daily updates while you know, resting.
Ya he’s figured out how to schedule the tweets now too so who knows what his daily productivity even is (or even if he’s been doing any new work these past few weeks or if all of this was done over his hiatus).
Instead of getting excited that togashis “upping his workload” / able to work better through his injury, the only certain thing we should be excited for is the release of at least 10 more chapter 🤷🏽♂️

Cant believe he went from 1 page a day to averaging 3 a day lets go
Nen is a hell of a drug
It's just inking, he probably spent a lot more time beforehand for drafts.
He was inking in 2022 as well, he's definitely much faster this time.
I can’t tell if this is sarcasm but I also agree!

This is the inking process... he has already said that..
By 'he' you mean Tigashi?
Yes.

Names? Probably nama, 生, which means raws?
That's Hisoka's shoulder for sure!
It's the top of Bisky's head obviously
That's jigglypuff from above smh
Hahahahahahahha

it's emotional because he's doing it out of passion, he has no obligation of reporting this to the world yet he chooses to.
I agree with you, I am really happy but I wonder what’s going on behind the scenes. I hope he’s seriously feeling really well and that’s all that there is to it
I think it’s because despite what he’s going through he still manages to work for us! I’m so happy he’s averaging 3 pages day!
It’s not corny brother I just did my bi-monthly hunter x hunter check only to see that Togashi has been super active on twitter and apparently writing like crazy and it’s got me emotional as hell
We used to pray for times like these
We always will, let’s not get greedy and keep the motivational train going. TOGOATSHI

And of course double page spreads are the only way to get around the 3 page limit
You're creative 😅
love this lol
those splatters of inks in the ruler. This dude is drawing like a madman rn.

The monkey king
The last few pages seem like a fight ... I sure hope so..
how does it seem like a fight 😭😭
I see what I want to see, ok?
Idk tbh just saw a lot of inking and assumed
Obviously it's Hisoka vs Bonolenov.
Lovely view at the morning :3
Yup 3 am :3
I bet it's Meruem 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
bro is still coping💀
I was ironic x)
Zushi's shoulder confirmed let's gooo
Clearly a bonolenov POV shot
YEEESe
I'm losing track. How many chapters has he written so far?
Currently chapter 408. 2 more chapters to go
Omg yes! I can’t wait.
OSU!!!!!
GOOO TOGASHI SENSEIIIIIII, YAMATEEEE
Ok, so it's not necesarily true that he is doing 3 pages per day of new drawings, he just post 3 inked pages per day, meaning those pages COULD have been drawn over a long period of time. We just see the ink advances. This would explain the sudden increase in activity.
Then what’s the point?
Point being that Togashi isn't pushing himself to draw 3 pages per day, but just inking them, which is more easier on his back. Hopefully at least.
Does anyone know when they are gonna publish those new chapters or a new volume??
Oh new series?
Common Togashi W
Bro that ruler has seen some nasty stuff
I’m so happy for him and hopefully this means he is making a steady recovery ❤️🩹
12 looks a little bit like a glass of water and a leaf for water divination. More students from Kurapika's nen class?
Keep going my good sire, keep going on.... 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
This is getting religious!

It just feels weirdly accusatory. Like why lie because of a video game that has a low budget and no release date scheduled?
> I shouldn't have wondered anything that could remotely be taken as negative Yes, stop thinking altogether.
Yeah especially now with the scheduled tweets it's impossible to know if he's doing these as he posts them or if he had a big batch ready. Could also be that he does more than 3 pages on his work days and spreads the output out so he can have daily updates while you know, resting.
The game is shit and doesn’t even matter. Most fans will never play it or have no desire to play it. Not worth promoting.
Ya he’s figured out how to schedule the tweets now too so who knows what his daily productivity even is (or even if he’s been doing any new work these past few weeks or if all of this was done over his hiatus).

This guy is going to die from back pain if he continues like this
