Kazue Kato, the creator of bestselling shonen manga series Blue Exorcist, is exhausted from working on the series for twelve years. On Twitter she explained to her followers that she is taking a two-month vacation, during which new chapters will not appear. She was also quick to assure fans that she is not ill, so they don’t have to worry about her health.
急なお知らせで申し訳ありません。
2ヶ月の長めのお休みをいただきます！理由は、シンプルに12年分の疲れが爆発してしまったもので、体調不良というわけではありません。現在は休暇中で、とても元気に過ごさせてもらってます。（1/2続く）（加藤）

Manga creators in Japan are kept on very strict schedules for their output, so we hope Kato gets all the rest and relaxation she needs. After all her hard work, she deserves it!
