Boichi’s The Marshal King manga returns with chapter 28

Boichi’s The Marshal King has returned from hiatus, giving readers another chapter of the post-apocalyptic western manga on Shonen Jump+.

Anime News Network reports that chapter 28 resumed the series on Friday, 5 September 2026. The manga had been on hiatus since December, making the new chapter a welcome return rather than a routine weekly update.

What’s actually going on

The Marshal King is written and illustrated by Boichi, the artist known internationally for Dr. Stone. The series follows a marshal moving through a harsh future shaped by survival, violence and the remnants of civilisation.

The new chapter is available through Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ service in Japan. The available announcement confirms the resumption and chapter number, but does not establish a new international release schedule or a print-volume date.

That distinction matters for overseas readers. Digital manga availability, translation timing and regional licensing can differ, so a Japanese chapter resuming does not automatically mean that an English edition will arrive on the same day.

Why you should care

A hiatus can make a serialised manga feel as if it has vanished. A confirmed return gives readers something much better than rumour: a chapter number and a platform.

Boichi’s name also gives the series a useful entry point. Fans who discovered his kinetic linework through Dr. Stone may be curious about a darker, more openly western-flavoured story.

Our opinion

The best news here is wonderfully simple: The Marshal King is moving again. Chapter 28 is not a grand relaunch or a promise of a finished schedule, but it is a concrete sign that readers can return to Boichi’s dusty, dangerous world.

We will be watching for confirmation of the next chapter and wider international availability. For now, Japanese readers can pick up the resumed series on Shonen Jump+, while everyone else should avoid assuming that local release dates will match.
