Hunter × Hunter Vol. 39 has not been announced in English yet. Based on the English release pace and the Japanese edition, we expect it around April 2028.

Hunter × Hunter in English so far

The English edition started with Vol. 1 on Apr 5, 2005 from Viz Media. In the 20.8 years since, 38 volumes have come out — one about every 7 months on average. The pace has slowed lately: recent volumes have come out about every 2.3 years. Our predicted dates follow this slower pace. The longest wait was 4.2 years, between Vol. 36 and Vol. 37.

Japan is at Vol. 39 (Jul 3, 2026), so 1 volume is already out in Japan but not yet in English. At the current English pace, releasing it would take about 2.2 years.
