Where Does the Hunter x Hunter (2011) Anime End in the Manga?
Finished the 2011 anime and don't want to wait for a new season? Here is exactly which manga chapter and volume you need to start reading to continue the Hunter x Hunter story.
The Short Answer (No Spoilers)
If you just finished Episode 148 of the Hunter x Hunter (2011) anime and want to continue the story, you need to start reading the manga from Chapter 339, which is located in Volume 32.
The anime adapts everything up to the end of the "13th Hunter Chairman Election" arc perfectly, so you do not need to re-read the earlier chapters to understand what is going on.
Where to Buy: > Start your Dark Continent journey with Hunter x Hunter Volume 32 on Amazon.
What Happens Next? (The Dark Continent)
Many fans mistakenly believe the story ends when Gon climbs the World Tree to meet Ging. While it serves as a beautiful conclusion to Gon's personal quest, the actual world of Hunter x Hunter is just opening up.
Starting from Chapter 339, Yoshihiro Togashi shifts the focus away from Gon and Killua. The new arcs—The Dark Continent Expedition Arc and the Succession Contest Arc—focus heavily on Kurapika, Leorio, Hisoka, and the Phantom Troupe.
If you loved the complex, tactical battles of the Chimera Ant Arc (read our deep dive on that here!), the Succession Contest Arc turns the entire series into a massive, deadly game of political chess on a giant boat.
A Warning About the Hiatuses
Before you dive in, you must know that Hunter x Hunter is infamous for its long publication hiatuses due to the author's health. The chapters are incredibly dense and dialogue-heavy, so take your time reading them. It is absolutely worth it.
