Eiji Hashimoto is a manga artist who confirmed on his pixiv Fanbox page that he has fully lost hearing in his right ear. He says he can now sit at his desk and work, and plans to resume activities while limiting strain on his mind and body.
Hashimoto confirmed on his pixiv Fanbox page on September 15 that he has fully lost hearing in his right ear. He was diagnosed with sudden sensorineural hearing loss in April, began treatment within a week of onset, and underwent two months of rehabilitation. He says he can now sit at his desk and work, and plans to resume activities while limiting strain on his mind and body.
The second recent item about Hashimoto is not about his health but about his work reaching English print. Titan Manga will ship a 3-in-1 omnibus edition of Chiruran: Shinsengumi Requiem on January 26, 2027, and has revealed the cover for the first volume. Hashimoto and Shinya Umemura's manga ran in Tokuma Shoten's Monthly Comic Zenon from 2010, began its final arc with volume 32 in January 2022, and ended in April 2023. Mangamo publishes it digitally as The Shinsen-gumi.
Taken together, the two stories show a creator whose back catalog is still moving into new formats and territories while his own output is constrained. The omnibus is set for a fixed January 2027 date. Hashimoto's stated plan to avoid excessive strain is the only guidance either story gives about the pace of his other work, including Rappa: Yankee Ninpu Cho.
