Kagurabachi Chapter 132 Set For Sep 28 After Author's Illness
The schedule slip is small, but it lands on a series the editorial department is pushing as Shonen Jump's next big hit while an anime adaptation and a world tour are already in motion.
Reporting from 1 source: Animehunch.
Kagurabachi chapter 132 was pulled from Weekly Shonen Jump's combined issue 42/43, dated Sep 14, because of author Takeru Hokazono's sudden illness. The manga's X account said Hokazono has recovered and the chapter will run in issue 44 on Sep 28. It is the second health-related break this year; a June hiatus ran over a month.
The chapter was pulled from the combined issue 42/43, not rescheduled into a later slot on the same calendar. Issue 44 is a separate number, dated Sep 28, which puts the series back on the regular weekly track rather than in a special issue.
Hokazono's health has interrupted the run before. A break that began with issue 31 in June ran over a month, and the editorial department said at the time it chose a planned pause over his wish to keep drawing.
The manga sits in the Seitei War arc, a flashback following Chihiro's father, Kunishige Rokuhira, and the Enchanted Blades. Twelve tankobon volumes are out, with over 4 million copies in circulation as of April 2026.
