Summary
Dragon Ball Supermanga has been on hiatus since July 11, 2025. Chapter 103 was probably submitted to theV-Jumpmagazine shortly afterthe passing of creator Akira Toriyama, and no newDragon Ball Superchapter has been released ever since.
The manga started serialization in 2015, and is illustrated by Toyotaro, with 23 volumes so far. VIZ Media publishes both the compiled books anddigital chapters in Englishsince 2016. There has been information pointing toan eventual return to the series, and fans initially supposed the hiatus would be a short one.
However, fans remain with no news about when the next chapter will launch. And this month’sV-Jumpbrings neither a new chapter nor information about the end of the hiatus in December, which meansDragon Ball Superis unlikely to return in 2024(if it does return before 2025, it will not be inV-Jump).
No More Dragon Ball Super Manga?

ThelatestDragon Ball Superchaptersbrought an end to the Tournament of Power arc and seemed to pay a small homage to Toriyama. Fans expected the series to return in May 2024, which didn’t happen.
It seems unlikely the series will not return. So far, it hasn’t been officially canceled, and only three chapters are not yet compiled, which points more to the idea that Toyotarou was planning a new arc (because it’s too few chapters to be compiled). However, he could be going through a hard time coming up with ideas for the story, especially considering Toriyama’s death was probably a big challenge to him, who had worked closely with theDragon Ballcreator.
DespiteSuperstill being on hiatus, the franchise is still bringing more content to fans. In October, aDragon Ball Super Diversone-shot penned by Toyotarowas published (which brought fans some hope he would soon return toSuper) —this short story is to market the newDragon Ball Super Diversarcadegame.
Dragon Ball Superis published in English by VIZ Media and remains on indefinite hiatus. TheDragon Ball Superanime is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
