Chained Soldier Manga Resumes December 12 After Hiatus
The Chained Soldier manga will resume publication on December 12, following a hiatus that began in October. Artist Yōhei Takemura originally planned to return on November 14 but delayed the date to prioritize health recovery from a right wrist injury sustained in June. The condition involves fibrocartilage damage, which causes pain when drawing and impedes healing.
Takemura had been working while wearing a brace, but medical advice indicated that continuing drafts would hinder full recovery. Shonen Jump+ editorial staff confirmed that the artist's well-being is the top priority. Future serialization pace will be determined through consultation with writer Takahiro and Takemura, based on professional medical guidance.
