As mentioned, the biggest hold-up for the next season of "Hunter x Hunter" is the unfinished source material, the "Hunter x Hunter" manga. The manga is notorious for being delayed, but the most recent pause, which has lasted since late 2018, is supposedly due to Yoshihiro Togashi's chronic health issues and, according to CBR, a possible obsession with the "Dragon Quest" video game series.
However, if Season 7 of "Hunter x Hunter" ever arrives, it will likely be the endgame for the story of Gon Freecss and the Hunters. In 2018, right before the manga went on its longest hiatus, Comic Book reports that Togashi told Weekly Shonen Jump, "I need to finish writing 'Hunter x Hunter.' It has come to the point where either the story concludes first or I die before that happens. But I do intend to finish it."
So while it might be tough for fans to say goodbye to a series as epic and elaborate as "Hunter x Hunter," they should probably be prepared to do so, whether Season 7 ever arrives or not. Hopefully, that ending comes with some more of the epic anime fights that fans have come to expect from the series.
