Kagurabachi Manga Release Date Schedule 2026

Keeping up with Chihiro’s journey is one thing. Keeping up with the publication calendar is another. This Kagurabachi manga release date schedule for 2026 tracks every chapter published this year, along with confirmed breaks and upcoming release dates.

Kagurabachi normally releases new English chapters on Sundays through VIZ and MANGA Plus. However, creator Takeru Hokazono’s manga has experienced several interruptions throughout 2026, including an extended summer hiatus.

The calendar below separates actual release dates from projections, so you can see exactly where the series stands.

Full Kagurabachi Manga Release Date Schedule 2026

Chapter 107 kicked off Kagurabachi’s 2026 release schedule on Jan. 4.

The table includes all confirmed releases through Oct. 11. Future chapter numbers and dates are projected based on the regular weekly schedule unless otherwise noted.

Schedule note: Dates through Oct. 11 come from VIZ’s official chapter archive. Later dates may change if the series takes another break. The Dec. 27 year-end break is projected, not confirmed.

When Do New Kagurabachi Chapters Release?

Kagurabachi normally releases new English chapters on Sundays in the United States.

The manga appears in Japan’s Weekly Shonen Jump, which typically publishes on Mondays. However, Japanese holidays and special magazine schedules can occasionally change those dates.

For English readers, VIZ and MANGA Plus are the most reliable places to check the next chapter’s official release.

Early spoilers sometimes appear on Thursdays, although leaks are unofficial and do not follow a guaranteed schedule.

Why Did Kagurabachi Take a Break in 2026?

Kagurabachi experienced an extended hiatus during the summer of 2026.

Following Chapter 125, Shueisha announced that Hokazono would take time away from serialization to rest. The series resumed with Chapter 126 on July 26 in the U.S.

Another interruption occurred in September because of the author’s illness. Chapter 132 subsequently arrived on Sept. 27.

These breaks explain why Kagurabachi’s chapter numbers haven’t increased every week.

They also make it particularly important to distinguish official release dates from projections.

Where to Read Kagurabachi Officially

You can read Kagurabachi through two official English services:

• VIZ Shonen Jump provides the series’ official chapter archive and new English releases.
• MANGA Plus provides official English chapters directly from Shueisha.

Both services publish chapters alongside the Japanese release, subject to their respective availability and regional restrictions.
