The franchise’s 22nd anime film, Meitantei Conan Zero no Shikkōnin (Detective Conan: Zero’s Executioner), will open in Japan on April 13.
The third and fourth combined 2018 issue of Shogakukan’s Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine is revealing on Wednesday that the Detective Conan manga is going on an extended hiatus beginning in the next issue so that creator Gosho Aoyama can receive medical treatment and “recharge.”
The manga has spawned an ongoing anime series, and a yearly anime film series.
The magazine’s 45th issue had revealed in October that the manga would take a break so Aoyama could conduct research.
