Which Studio Will Animate Hunter X Hunter Season 7 Episodes?

Wild guessers and rumor-hunters aside, there hasn’t been any official word announcing which studio would take on a hypothetical season 7 of 'Hunter x Hunter'. I get why people keep asking — the 2011–2014 run by Madhouse left such a strong impression that fans naturally assume any continuation would come from the same team — but as of the latest reliable reports, no production committee, studio, or release window has been confirmed. That means anything else bouncing around social feeds is speculation, fan wishlists, or hopeful leaks rather than a firm announcement.

That said, putting on my fan hat, there are sensible reasons why Madhouse often comes up as the frontrunner in conversations. They produced the beloved 2011 adaptation that gave us consistent character design, solid fight choreography, and a tone that matched Yoshihiro Togashi’s dense storytelling, so returning to them would be the straightforward continuity choice. On the other hand, the anime industry has shifted a lot in recent years — streaming platforms, new funding models, and studios with rising reputations like MAPPA or Studio Bones have taken on big shonen projects and sometimes replace the original studio for sequels or reboots. Whether the rights holders want an exact continuation, a full reboot, or even a different pacing could influence who handles season 7, and that’s not something the public can nail down until contracts are signed and announced.

Another big factor is the source material. Togashi’s return and the manga’s irregular publication rhythm over the past few years complicate any immediate adaptations; production committees usually want a solid buffer of source chapters to adapt cleanly. So even if a studio gets attached, the timing, episode count, and how faithfully they adapt arcs will depend on how much manga material is ready and how the production team wants to pace it. From a fan perspective, I’d personally prefer whoever animates it to respect the manga’s atmosphere — careful pacing, expressive character acting, and strong direction on Nen fights — more than they need to chase flashy animation trends. That leans me toward hoping for a studio with a proven track record on character-heavy adaptations rather than a purely spectacle-first approach.

Bottom line: there’s no official studio attached to a season 7 of 'Hunter x Hunter' right now. I’m quietly hopeful whatever comes next won’t rush things — seeing this world handled with patience and the right creative team would mean a lot. If a studio announcement drops, I’ll be buzzing like everyone else, comparing staff lists and imagining how they’ll tackle the arcs, but until then I’m holding out for a proper reveal and savoring the possibilities.
