'Dragon Ball Super' announces manga hiatus after the release of chapter 103

Toyotaro will take a break from the development of ‘Dragon Ball Super.’ Akira Toriyama’s faithful companion felt the death of his master very deeply, and it was obvious that it would somehow affect the projects that the creative was keeping active. As it appears in the current V-Jump, the next issue of the manga (103) will be the one that will begin a hiatus that at this moment has not been confirmed how long it will last.

Accounts such as DBsHype, which is closely linked to the license’s current affairs, point out that more details about this hiatus will be revealed in the magazine’s next issue. It will be up to Toriyama and his team to decide whether to set a date for its return... or not.

‘Dragon Ball Super’ Chapter 103 already has a name and aims high on emotionality

‘Inheriting the Future.’ The name of the 103rd chapter of “Dragon Ball Super” reads differently after the news of the sudden death of Akira Toriyama. The manga world is in mourning, and those closest to him use their brushes to honor the memory of a person who made the universe vibrate with Kame Kame Ha.

Toyotaro understands the responsibility of this moment. The chapter is scheduled to be released this Wednesday, March 20, 2024, on Manga Plus, Shuehisha’s official free platform. Leaks suggest that this issue will put the finishing touches on the manga’s current narrative arc, which adapts and expands on the events of the ‘Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero’ movie. It will follow the battle between Goku and Gohan to its conclusion.

And the community around ‘Dragon Ball’ is still shocked by the loss of Toriyama. As soon as the news broke, hundreds of thousands of messages were posted on social media in remembrance of his character.
