Togashi-ism
(translated from the Japanese Wikipedia article)Since the phenomenal success of Hunter × Hunter, several major changes have been made at the offices of Shonen Jump, specifically to accommodate Yoshihiro Togashi. He receives longer vacations and bigger advances than any of Shonen Jump's other mangaka, and this situation has come to be known as "Togashi-ism"
