The serialized manga is in a holding pattern. The latest run ended with chapter 420 in Weekly Shonen Jump issue 41, released September 7, closing a 10-chapter batch that matches the pattern set in 2024. The magazine said the timing of the next installment will be announced in its pages once decided, and Yoshihiro Togashi posted on X that manuscripts through chapter 427 are complete, with no publication date set. The irregular batch format adopted in 2022 continues.
Volume 39 collected chapters 401 through 410 and, after a long hiatus, took the number one spot on Billboard JAPAN's JAPAN Book Hot 100 chart for June 29 to July 5, ahead of One Piece Volume 115 and Haruki Murakami's novel KAHO -The Tale of KAHO-. The cover features Hisoka alone. The chart launched in November 2025 and aggregates physical sales, e-book downloads, library lending, and other data.
Merchandise coverage has been steady and heavily weighted toward two arcs. Bandai's figure lines range from the S.H.Figuarts Chrollo Lucilfer, scheduled for February 2027 at 9,900 yen, to Gashapon and capsule sets such as Suwarasetai Real 3 and the Chimera Ant Arc Nen ability collection. Ichiban Kuji has run two Greed Island lotteries, with the second launching August 29 at 850 yen per draw, while Graniph released a 20-item Greed Island apparel line on June 2.
The stage play series, which began in 2023 and ran a Greed Island installment in 2025, will adapt the Chimera Ant arc as its fourth installment. It runs in two parts in 2027: January through February, then July through August, in Tokyo and Kyoto. Specific dates and venues are not yet announced.
