The April issue of Kodnasha’s Monthly Young Magazine has brought some bad news for manga fans. The magazine revealed that Kosuke Satake’s The Witch and the Beast manga will continue to be on a hiatus, as Satake has yet to fully recover from poor health. The magazine will be announcing when the manga will return at a later date.

The manga went on hiatus in January and was expected to return to serialization in the magazine’s April edition. Kodansha USA Publishing releases the manga in English. The company describes the manga’s story as follows:

“Guideau: a feral girl with long fangs and the eyes of a beast. Ashaf: a soft-spoken man with delicate features and a coffin strapped to his back. This ominous pair appears one day in a town that’s in thrall to a witch, who has convinced the townsfolk she’s their hero. But Ashaf and Guideau know better. They have scores to settle, and they won’t hesitate to remove anyone in their way…”
