Yoshihiro Togashi’s Hunter x Hunter is on the way to the stage, with performances to kick off in Tokyo on May 12. If you’re wondering exactly what everyone involved will look like in action, the folks behind the production released photos of some of the main cast members in costume.

Pre-sales already went up for digital Shonen Jump subscribers in Japan, with general sales to follow on April 15. Let’s see how Shion Otomo looks as Gon along with more of the cast below. 

As for Yoshihiro Togashi’s manga, the most recent update revealed that the series is moving away from a weekly publication.

VIZ Media publishes Hunter x Hunter in English and gave this description for the first volume:

“Gon might be a country boy, but he has high aspirations. Despite his Aunt Mito’s protests, Gon decides to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a legendary Hunter. The Hunter hopefuls begin their journey by storm-tossed ship, where Gon meets Leorio and Kurapika, the only other applicants who aren’t devastated by bouts of seasickness.

Having survived the terrors of the high seas, Gon and his companions now have to prove their worth in a variety of tests in order to find the elusive Exam Hall. And once they get there, will they ever leave alive…?”
