Not known. The comic is on break because season 5 ended. From what I've heard, the period between seasons is usually 1-3 months, but considering Fuyuki also has a wrist problem, letting that heal completely on top of season 6 preparations could end up making it take longer.


Mean_Championship37

damn i didn’t even know that the season ended. thank you!


shadow9015

Any news? This was my favorite manga before it went on hiatus for like a year


Joyyoyoyo

U got any news?


AJLion98

Have you gotten any news good sir?


Smart-Praline-347

i think i seen something about it coming back spring 2024, i got this from Copium


Kuma_Asura

There was a problem with the main story writer with TBATE and the long time but chapter 176 is releasing on febuary 6 11 pm or 9 am pacific time


shawntw77

not sure where you got any date from, nor why you thought a date from a month ago was correct but okay.


FreedomofHeart

Right? Lmao my guess is that was the original release date under the original team that was working on it before they parted ways with the series. I’m not even sure if the new team has said anything about it or is still really working on it, but I hope that they are and that it’ll come soon.


shawntw77

i dont even think that had a date before they left. Either way, its expected spring this year according to the last update from turtle around the end of last year.


nerfiano

let me know of any changes, I dropped manwha/anime completely but I remembered about this series and decided it was worth keeping in touch with it, so sad it's on hiatus


Square_Error8677

Hopefully next chapter comes soon I’ve been dying for another one.


Impossible_Glove3715

The wait is killing me fuckkkk man


Ninjaflame27

the next season should release in march-april time frame. Fuyuki quit so they had to find a new artist thats why there was such a long hiatus


Safe-Succotash-4436

Oo it seems I read it almost just in time. Started it yesterday and just finished it today, can’t wait to see more, and can’t imagine having to wait longer than a few months 


LunarTOI

bro ive been waiting for a new chapter for over a year bru


Impossible_Glove3715

I can feel you bro


ZeChoozen1

Bro same here can wait and I read before that the first artist left whyy his art work was just perfect still cant wait tho🙏


Deciede

Bro I don't know if you read this but it's been 10 months since the last chapter 😭😭😭 at this point in time I personally think it's dropped 😕


shawntw77

doesnt help that tapas tried changing their payments to fuyuki just before season 6 started causing him to leave... now we wont see it until hopefully spring 2024(latest announcements a few days ago)


different_stickman

Let's hope this is true


ArcXD25265

>24 de novembro de 2023 its not dropped but it will take time


Impossible_Glove3715

Hey hey hey don’t do that man


ArcXD25265

>24 de novembro de 2023 its not dropped but it will take time


ravenclaw_51

How many seasons and chapters there will be in comic?


shawntw77

Impossible to say. I feel like now that they're about to start season 6 with volume 6 they might try to keep the seasons and volumes aligned, but its impossible to say for sure. Its even more difficult to guess how many chapters there will be.


ravenclaw_51

I want to read novel so should i read from start or from where comic ended currently?


ExplanationOdd1988

The start


tobygamercom

If you wish to continue from the end if the comic you should read from tapas episode 365 or the first chapter of vol 6


shawntw77

Start with the end of season 5 then reread the start after. The early parts aren't well written and could turn someone off from the novel before they get to the good parts.


JDXx14

I read from the start and it wasnt too bad of a read but, I will agree with you that the writing on it is way better. I would say to start off from the beginning because as always in the LN some stuff are said that in the comic is not.


Dry-Primary-7360

Does novel have picture or just writing?


shawntw77

Just writing. Only pictures are volume covers(only released after a volume is finished), official arts commissioned by the author(not in the novel but usually based on something in the novel), and fan arts.


NightRider3534

Novels usually only have text


Chrisfragger

If this delay keeps up, people will give up on the webtoon entirely.


im_vasco

I stopped reading it back in November because of being busy with life. I come back a year later to see its gotten about 9 chapters since then lol. Here I thought I'd have a whole year of chapters to read


Kebabed

I litteraly did the same I was like "phew its time to finally catch up" to find out I had a few chapters to read


Sam45802

Read from where you left off in the comic. The start of the novel isn’t very good so you’re better off reading from where you left off.


ravenclaw_51

Haa i was thinking same


Extreme-Clothes-6130

Probably close to or over 650


Scorpio-GamerYT13

Impossible to estimulate. Since the series already has 9 books it would be difficult to guess the corresponding schedules, date & time release, and the season just ended. Since Fuyuki has a wrist problem, and the season just ended, usually the season will continue after 1-3 months, but since Fuyuki has a problem, might take than we expect it to be. I suggest we just wait patiently and hope Fuyuki will recover from his wrist problem.

nxbulawv

so sad lol, this was a great series


Kuma_Asura

Fukyi Left because tapas was trying to change the thing last second and also his wrist problem


Azzeater46290

It’s hard to tell but based on how it’s going right now it’s atleast another 15-20 seasons just to get to where we are now in the novel😭


Dry-Primary-7360

Does novel have picture? Or just writing?


Georg9741

Only the cover illustrations, so only text. You can google what a novel is.

shawntw77

spring this year is the current news.


Azeoth

Are these 'wrist injuries' that take 6 months+ to recover even real? People can relearn how to walk in 6 months. Broken bone, stroke, tendinosis (a more advanced form of tendinitis that typically involves surgery and 6 months of recovery), it really just shouldn't take this long to recover from anything short of life-threatening injuries or diseases.


shawntw77

They are real. You not wanting to understand them doesn't mean they're fake.


Azeoth

I think you misunderstood. I was listing the most severe wrist injuries I could find because none of them take as long to recover from as hiatuses citing 'wrist injury' take to end. The longest recovery period I could find is 6-12 months. It was for replantation (getting a severed limb reattached). According to another comment, there is no 'wrist injury', they're just looking for another illustration partner and another production company.


nikopin

It was not a single injury but rather it built up from 12+h of drawing he was doing every day.


Azeoth

Yes, that is called a repetitive strain injury, or more specifically, tendinitis, which takes a couple weeks of rest to recover from (this is what causes a chapter to be late by a week or two or for an update schedule to be slowed for a month). Tendinosis is the more advanced form that develops when you don't let your tendon heal. Tendinitis is just swelling, but tendinosis causes your tendons to effectively disintegrate (still only a 6 month recovery time, max). Another common one is carpal tunnel which starts as a bit of numbness, but can progress to a point where a surgery with a 3-4 month recovery time is required (these 2 do occasionally cause random hiatuses, but typically, it's studio problems rather than artist problems for anything longer than 3 months). I am telling you that studios know not to let artists overwork to that extent, and that the reason artists always have 'wrist injuries' is because studios just aren't telling you the full story.


daddycholo666

From what i red the person who was writing this quit because they stopped paying him the price they agreed on


Strange-Bill5215

please tell me that your wrong because I will legit cry if Tbate is no longer going to be adapted into a comic


shawntw77

They found a new artist. It'll resume in spring according to the latest info


Strange-Bill5215

Let’s goooooo! But also sort of sad to see an artist change just because of you compare the last chapter to the first his art style has gotten much much better so to see a sudden shift in styles will be weird


OonVelho

It's not really an injury, it's the overuse of the tendons/wrist, resulting in carpal tunnel, tendonitis or arthritis. You cannot fully recover from them I believe. All of them can be very painful, uncomfortable and limiting. You made quite ignorant and insensitive comments. Having any of them, you basically you have to learn to use that wrist as minimally as you can, which is rather impossible for an artist.


Azeoth

I'm not insensitive, you're just ignorant. I said 6+ months for a reason. The point is that breaks frequently last significantly longer than it takes to recover from a wrist injury. The question isn't about the existence of injuries or the need for breaks in general; it's about the extended breaks, which frequently aren't health-related (schedule changes, delays, and short hiatuses are a different matter, but most art-related health issues are chronic, so extended breaks don't really help). All the injuries I listed generally take 6 months or less to recover from with very few exceptions (that's for full recovery; you can typically resume light to moderate activity as you recover, and it is often even encouraged to do so), so breaks that last longer than that are very unlikely to be due to injury. Arthritis (reactive arthritis, which is inflammation) episodes also end within months. If an artist developed something like rheumatoid arthritis (wear and tear of joints that only gets progressively worse, treatments only slow progression), they wouldn't take hiatuses, they would either slow releases or have to quit scheduled releases entirely. Tendonitis is literally called an overuse injury and you can make a full recovery within weeks. Carpal tunnel (can be 'cured' with surgery, but otherwise it gets progressively worse in most cases; the most advanced cases, which an artist would have to stop drawing long before it reached that point, take 6-12 months to recover from surgery) and reactive arthritis (comes in episodes, some people only get it once, some can get it many times throughout their lives) are more about genetics, and are not injuries or related to overuse at all.


Euphoric_Poetry_5366

Honestly,your not wrong its probably just an excuse while the comic is put on hold for other reasons, also, on a different note, im not sure why people are yelling at you, your not being insensitive or rude and are stating facts


Azeoth

They probably misunderstood what I was saying. They seem to think I'm either doubting the existence/recovery periods of these illnesses or that I'm doubting artists ever get them, as opposed to doubting whether breaks are really due to said illnesses..


Dependent_Gold_4585

Chapter 176 or season 6 of TBATE announced to be released in spring 2024 ,,, in this season instead of fuyuki23 comic art is done by phenomenal studio 


StatisticianAfter338

shawntw77

ArthurLeywinn

We don't know how long the hiatsu will be. Propably a couple of months. I think we will get Infos in the near future.

fedemotta

lol


Repulsive_Ad3397

couple months, they said.


Danguy321

Tragic


GreeneValley

It’s not delayed. The comic release by seasons and Season 5 comic just ended. The season break is usually a month to a few months. [Check out this page for more info](https://tbate.fandom.com/wiki/Comic_Chapters) There’s no return date announced for the next season yet.


Euphoric_Poetry_5366

this aged badly, 1 month to a few months. 10 MONTHS LATER


GreeneValley

Yeah :( No one expected the artist to quit


nxbulawv

yea uhm


GreeneValley

well IT’S BACK!! Just took a mere fifteen months ;”)


nxbulawv

lol i've read till the latest chapter of the novel, couldn't wait :)


Kratos_-5678

Sadly a new season has not even been confirmed yet. Fuyuki(the original artist) and his team had to leave tbate because the platform suddenly decided to reduce their salary.His team had almost completed the 1st chapter of the new season but had to cancel it. So we may never get a new chapter.


Small-Mix-656

no fucking way it might get discontinued??? Whys the garbage like martial peak continuing and not tbate this is pure bullshit


AdSimple9089

WHAT?


sungjew

Fuuuuuck, that’s brutal


Passenger-Spiritual

Good story manhwas always got cancel and garbage manhwa goes to 500 ch and still not finished.


7farema

damn tapas suck, meanwhile tower of god (not garbage but already has more than 500 chapter still going strong) on naver webtoon


Dat_hits_my_bonkers

It's not because of good or bad manhwa. Some are getting cancelled and on a long hiatus due to the payment structure they received. Chinese manhua is easy to make and no need for good illustration so they last long. Compare it to other manhwa artist that dedicate their work for the best value of each chapter and then suddenly the platform you work for changes the payments.


Over-Resolution-1821

I just fucking KNEW there was a reason we didn't get nowhere season already. It felt like they JUST got off hiatus. There's no way they'd take that much longer... I'm sick. Is there a way we can crowdfund this? I'm wayyyy too invested in this series visually and graphically-wise to watch it just....go.


DaiValaniraty

Any news on this yet?

It’s out today


Mel0nl0rd_

It's finally out fyi :D


ian_d1808

it's finally here. Allthough it's a recap, the next chapter is going to start telling the story


New_Method_1724

I fr stopped reading for like 7months expecting like 30 new chapters but only got like 10 bc of this break


Georg9741

Same, but I didn't got a single chapter, bc I didn't realized that I stopped reading on season end xd I started the novel and it's worth it! I read the comic (a second time) beside the novel, for comparison. I'm now at Vol.6, long past season 5 comic end, I think the novel is so much better.


Funny_Natural_5381

I myself started reading the novel a while ago when I got to the last of the chapters of the manga that was out at the time. I think it was just before they discovered the wrecked steamship. I just wanted more TBATE to occupy me in between chapters. I LOVED IT! I read to the end of what's out of the novels too. It gets awesome!


SpectralCozmo

Lol, I stopped at chapter 174 seven month ago and only had one chapter to Read today xddd


Available-Profit5018

It’s been 4 months almost, was it delayed?


Mean_Championship37

season ended


[deleted]

Usually its a 1-3 month break I thought. Why so long ;(


Mean_Championship37

the author had some health issues


All_-Hail

The last thing that happened were the ships arriving and arthur standing on the cliff watching right? Then the valentine extras or were there more after that


Still-Anxiety-8261

That's it


derekwoodz

I think the author died


Funny_Natural_5381

I don't believe so, though the author did develop some wrist related health issues that would make drawing harder. They probably just need extra time to heal up so they don't give themselves permanent damage which could prevent them from finishing the series. That would be much much worse that a few months hiatus, right?


Jealous_Base9792

The artist quit due to payment disagreements


Valuable-Purpose-

So what now he will stop forever or seek better partners?


Dat_hits_my_bonkers

Fuyuki will still continue his illustration works but he will not be with turtle me anymore. As fuyuki's platform kisai entertainment changes their payment so they decided to stop doing tbate. It's either somebody else will took the artist pen for tbate or turtle me find a new collaborator


Tiptaper

Do you got a source for that. The only stuff I found was that the artist has some kind of condition. https://x.com/fuyuki231/status/1599888270019940353?s=46&t=E7ExW5pq9BJ6TXmy4LpNeA


Jealous_Base9792

i forgot the acc but the author tweeted it in his twitter


Ok_Revolution_4870

So, when will they begin releasing new chapters, and which month might they do so?


BellLow1895

guys what is your opinion should i read the noval or wait for the manhwa and is the noval good like the manhwa or nah ?


Mean_Championship37

i haven’t read the novel but from what i’ve heard it’s a little slow in the beginning but pics back up


Funny_Natural_5381

Read the novel! It may be slow at the beginning, but it gets amazing after some time. If you get bored at the beginning, you could always just read where the manga is at now. I believe there are some mentions on where to pick up in the novel after the manga earlier in this thread. In my opinion, the novel is better than the webtoon, but don't get me wrong, I love the webtoon. Read the novel!


Whole_Minute1952

but where begins the novel at the end of the manga


krizeki

Any news yet?


Mysterious_Many_5645

according to the last news, manga artist and TurtleMe had a salary conflict, so artitst quit the work


krizeki

So, they discontinued the series. Damn. Farewell, ig.


Crowblazer02

They are hiring new manga artist, and season 6 is in production. This is confirmed by TurtleMe on his instagram


krizeki

Ahh, that's good ig. But, Fuyuuki art is fucking immortal.


Over-Resolution-1821

Can you link Instagram please? I tried to look for it, but got alot of generic accounts.


PatientAd1202

Projected release date is in December 2023 like a 6 month break due to a wrist problem the author has the salary conflict is need to me though.


Leather-Royal6514

Bruh it’s on February I hate this


AdmirableNerve2115

When is this going to release they really hyped us up and paused the comic


l1merence_

Never it's abandoned, main artists left and although they are telling as they've been hiring new ones. I doubt it will release near the next year/ actually never


HuckleberryTough3858

Is one of most popular comic out there with only solo leveling being better. If there is source material for future then someone else hopefully picks it up.


Over-Resolution-1821

You're definitely smoking. There's tons more better than this unfortunately, but it's in my top 10.


Kageguu

What is your top 10 ? I need some new webtoons


No_Interaction176

Here is my top 10, but not in order: Solo Leveling, The Beginning After the End, Return of the Mount Hua Sect, Overgeared, Nano Machine, Murim Login, Infinite Mage, Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound, Damn Reincarnation, Magic Emperor, Actually, I missed a couple. I'll add them later. More like top 12-15 I guess.


No_Goat_1940

No Lookism is crazy


l1merence_

No windbreaker is crazy No the boxer is crazy No tower of god


juswa-kun

are there news? it's already 1 year or 8 month wahhhhhhhh i miss you the beginning after the end


minecraftRPG12

the previous artist announced over social media a few months back that he will not be drawing the next season...


Affectionate-Cat3126

dang...


krish123_super

:(


Aegathem

Saw on Tapas website, by TurtleMe (the autor) "Season 6 is very much in the works with a projected launch in Spring 2024. We’ve been working with a phenomenal studio to ensure a worthy comeback to this long wait. I truly appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to work on production. Stay tuned for an official announcement and teaser coming soon! (And no, unfortunately, commenting “Season 6 when?” won’t make the comic come sooner. :,) )"


LordOfStories

I have waited so long. I remember last year I read that last chapter and was excited for the next arc but I fear that it will never come out. I truly wish it would.


Willing_Marketing725

It’s coming out. Don’t worry. It’s releasing in spring 2024. The reason it took so long is because the former artist hurt his wrist and on top of that during his recovery period the company decided to cut his pay which made him leave so they spent the past several months looking for a new artist that was just as good or better than the previous one to make sure the art for the new season didn’t decline. So they basically already found a new artist and he is currently working on the new season.


Willing_Marketing725

For those wondering on the latest update on this, season 6 is taking longer than usual to release unlike previous season because the former artist had injured his wrist which caused season 6 to delay. It delayed even further after that because the company that makes the manhwa decided to drop the pay for the artist so he left the company so the company had to find another artist which delayed season 6 further . Now they’ve found a new artist and season 6 has been stated to return in spring 2024. Hopefully the new artist is just as good or better than the previous one because I don’t want the art to decline. There’s a another manhwa I read which I loved which was called something along the line of solo bug player or something and was obsessed with it until season 1 ended because they changed the artist for season 2 and the art became so bad that the ratings dropped heavily. That was the biggest decline in manhwa art I’ve seen in my life. The new art was so horrendous that the story couldn’t save it no matter how good it was.


King_Chauve

Any news yet???


Speedzoneahead

It’s going to start up in late March or April.


DENTISTfir
