Why Is Blue Exorcist on a Break? When Will the Manga Return?

As a die-hard fan of Blue Exorcist, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions when hearing about its temporary hiatus. On one hand, I understand that our beloved creator Kazue needs time to recover from an undisclosed illness, which is far more important than any manga series. However, on the other hand, it feels like a piece of my life is missing without the latest chapter of Blue Exorcist.

Supporters of the popular manga series, “Blue Exorcist,” are deeply disappointed to hear the unexpected news. Many are left questioning the sudden pause in their beloved storyline, particularly following the thrilling unveiling of the characters’ new appearances. Since its debut in 2009, Blue Exorcist has held a prominent place among Shonen series, captivating audiences with its tale about Rin Okumura, who is literally Satan’s son and sets out on an exorcism journey. Now, the question everyone wants answered is why “Blue Exorcist” has been placed on hold and when it will resume its official release.

As a dedicated fan of Blue Exorcist, I’ve been eagerly waiting for updates on its return. So here’s the lowdown: The series took a break due to the author, Kazue Kato, dealing with some health issues, which caused delays in the release of new chapters. The main reason for this hiatus was to ensure that Kato could fully recover and return to his work at full capacity. As of now, there’s no definitive date set for when Blue Exorcist manga will resume publication, but fans remain hopeful and are keeping their fingers crossed for a swift comeback!

Why is Blue Exorcist on hiatus?

The manga series, Blue Exorcist, has temporarily stopped publication due to its creator needing time to recuperate from an unspecified health issue.

Through an update from X (previously Twitter), it was announced by Blue Exorcist’s creator, Kazue, via her official account that she has been dealing with an unspecified illness that necessitated surgery. Thankfully, her recovery is progressing positively, but she needs time to fully heal post-operation. It seems Kazue skillfully managed her work on Blue Exorcist alongside hospital visits and medical care for a while, but now she’s in need of a well-deserved rest and time to truly recuperate.

When will Blue Exorcist’s break end?

Blue Exorcist’s break will end and come back by Monday, November 4, 2024.

As a devoted admirer, I’ve been eagerly awaiting the return of “Blue Exorcist” manga, which last graced the pages of Shonen Jump magazine back in August 2024. But, the wait is finally coming to an end! The creator has officially announced that this beloved series will resume its run on November 4, 2024, putting an end to its prolonged hiatus. Just like many long-standing manga series, “Blue Exorcist” has had its fair share of pauses throughout the years. I can hardly contain my excitement for its return!

Lately, there seem to be more breaks in Kazue’s schedule, suggesting she might have been dealing with health issues for some time. Fortunately, it seems her supporters are relieved as she seems to be making progress towards a full recovery.

Fans of Blue Exorcist have reason to be excited, as Season 4 is set to debut in October, following closely on the heels of the thrilling finale of Season 3 that aired back in March 2024. With the Shimane Illuminate Arc concluding in Season 3, viewers can look forward to jumping right into the Exorcist Exam Arc without delay.
