My only hope for this arc is that Benjamin, when having every safety and resource stripped from him by a combination of unlucky factors, will end up turning into a savage beast and making a good showing Right now it's just "waste resources, get outflanked, get super aids, die" which is kinda gay

Godawful chapter
>>288979580this page translation is kinda of ass so I'll just paste voracious drake translation since it's more clear. Basically "ritual" in japanase is "matsurigoto", and the “matsuri” part can have 4 different meanings depending on the kanji used: 「祀り」 Rites of worship (prayers to God) Praying for the prosperity of the country and making a vow「奉り」 Rites of sacrifice (offering to God) Offering the lives of your bloodline as proof of resolve「祭り」 Rites of burial (pacifying the souls and spirits) Gathering those who died in the Succession Contest in one place to create a power spot「政り」 Rites of ascension (writs and rits conflated, governance by the celebrated)16 Using the immense power gathered from the “burial rites” to rule the countryBasically it's just kanji autism. Here's VD full translation in case anyone's curious: https://voraciousdrake.wordpress.com/2026/06/26/hxh-411-announcement/

the chapter's pretty mid but it's setting up a lot of things I hope there'll be more stuff happening next week
Pitou sex
Just finished reading. I believed the people who said the chapter was shit since I still had a bad taste from some of the pacing in the last batch, but this is a perfectly fine and engaging chapter. It was actually a pretty quick chapter too. The crowd gets introduced to vows and limitations, Kurapika brings up a great question about the 2 months that I’ve rarely seen despite being on this site for 12+ years in every Hunter thread. And we set the stage for Camilla’s guard and another big revelation. I liked reading the internal thoughts of the participants. Overall fine chapter. Nothing noteworthy but not enough for me to say “Togashi wasted a chapter”.
>>288979654I feel like this doesn’t properly explain how they’ll lose their power. IRL dictatorships don’t require special Nen abilities to be maintained. Perhaps it means they would ‘eventually’ fall, but it shouldn’t mean they’ll be ousted just like that.
Seems like Kurapika just made everyone shit their pants for no good reason (for now, i'm sure he has a plan and says the things he sais with strategy in mind)While explaining 1,5 month timeline untill Kakin crashes with no survivors if there's no winner he forgot to mention that you can null the whole ritual you get your hands on the Kakin Regalia (or he does not know about them, only presumes? I remember Chrollo knowing about them, don't know about Pika tho)
>>288980032The only wasted chapters this arc have been the trope flashback and the card game
nigga got a big ass nose
>>288979988I want Suzie Q dress up as proto-Chun Li in stardust crusader.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNvlTSgoHD0
>>288980337Troupe flashback and Morena card game are one of the most important chapters, but you need to have IQ higher than 110 to see the vision.
Dumb question but is Beginner class the class for 1st timers and Introductory is for people who were already there?Naming them Beginner/Introductory makes them sound both like a Level 1 thing
>>288980254Im pretty sure his goal at this point is to create an alliance among the lower princes by giving them a concrete reason to go along with this. His orignal plan was to involve hawkenburg cause he wants to abolish the monarchy anyway, but since he thinks he died hes just fipping off the bandaid in order to speed up the creation of the alliance before anyone else dies. Its certainly risky, but I really doubt bengimen at least wasn't aware of this
>>288979679Seems like setup from ch 403 has been set in motion
Everything in this chapter could've been conveyed in 2-3 pages tops.
>>288980505Everything in anything can be conveyed in one page tops.Gon wants to find his father? Just show him finding Ging on the last panel of the 1 page of the manga. Why bother writing 300 + chapters for this. It's so silly
>>288980032ive always been quick to bring up that we are not even 2 full weeks into the 2 month war. Kurapika bringing attention to that i think will give people a good frame of reference for the scope of the whole arc. That being said I dont think the succession war will take the full 2 months, i suspect kurapika or chrollo will find a way to end the war prematurely
>>288980505Good thing you’re not a mangaka
>>288980567We’re going to have a 2-3 week timeskip , maybe even a month
>>288979265Cinema
>>2889802541) kurapika dosnt know about the regalia that make the nen for the war. Only chrollo does. Chrollo correctly inferred that the nen that creates the succession war is the root of kakins prosperity, which kurapika also confirmed this chapter. Kurapika wants to end the war but dosnt know how, chrollo knows how and is working towards stealing those treasures for himself.2) kurapika didnt scare them for no reason. He is explaining the true purpose of the war to people who dont know shit about nen. He is doing this to influence people into a alliance so he can maintain a stalemate and prevent more princes from dying. His is likely trying to convince the others that woble and the other young princes are not eligible for the war in order to protect them.
I hate waiting a whole week for chapters
>>288979890That's too powerful. We know Tserriednich is a Specialist and we've seen Specialists gain Nen abilities without realizing it before. If Tserriednich gets a new King Crimson tier ability every time his horse kills a traitor, he'd be the strongest human in the entire series even before making his own Nen ability. That's silly.>>288980242He does say they will eventually fall, he literally says that right on that page. He doesn't know what the actual punishment will be because how would he? He didn't design the ritual. But it probably just removes Nen from the artifacts, making the ritual defunct and deleting all the GSBs. It might also remove Nen from the participants, but an exorcist can fix that.
>>288980713as opposed to a whole year?
can a Hunter x Hunter Politics Expert explain to me why this is such a huge deal?
>>288979502How is he so powerful?
>>288979735He's bullshitting. He doesn't really have much choice considering what he just told them. He's probably hoping they target other princes first, he's trying to buy himself some time but the ploy looks very desperate and the smarter characters will just ignore him.
>>288980736>That's too powerful>That's sillyWhen Halkenburg exists LOLLMAO, even.
>>288980751I grow impatient if what I want is nearly at my graps
>>288980337People were hyped for both of them at first, they just felt like they lasted too long. I felt like the Troupe flashback could've been an entire chapter shorter and the card game maybe half a chapter shorter.>>288980411Other way. Introductory class is for introducing Nen (they don't know Nen yet). Beginner class is for beginner Nen users (they just learned Nen). Kurapika says the Beginner class will learn the four basics; basically what Wing taught Gon and Killua.
My biggest fear is all this training and getting into the mind of all these minor characters just results in them all dying in some massacre or something. Togashi writing the minor characters like they’re expected to make major plays later , but how can 100+ characters each make a major play
>it's ok when Togashi makes an entire row of reacting people
>>288980813>but how can 100+ characters each make a major playDoes not mean they'll make a major play. But each one little by little will have some effect on the grand scheme of things. It's like a banch of small dominosBasically this arc has 100+ Welfins
>>288980758they want to keep their alliance with kurapika hush hush, having another bodyguard of an elder prince show up to get a power up is bad optics something something keep the balance
>>288980856Yes.There are gradations to this.
>>288980856The main difference is that the reactions are just in one panel and spread across two pages
>>288980856Not enough exaggerated faces and bulging eyes for my taste
>>288980792>>288980713
>>288979791>syaing that she is beyond's daughter.that doesn't matter
>new HXH chapters
>>288980856
>>288980758ill try my bestThe guy is a guard that works for the 2nd queenthe older queens have authority over the children, and sent their guards to "protect" but really spy on the other princesthe majority of wobles guards where spies sent by other queens, they all got killed by silent majority.This dude is a guard sent by the 2nd queen to spy on the third princeBut instead hes attending kurapikas nen class, which confuses the other 2, alerting them that something fishy is going on. The last guard gets mad cuz he donst want to comprise the relationship thats been built between the third prince and kurapika
>>288980872They won’t all have any play. Remember the Benjamin guard that was sent to watch haleknburg? He got a couple pages of monologuing with lots of text. Maybe I’m remembering wrong but all he did was get one shot Halkenburg after he awakened
>>288980919tranny toss
where are my beautiful wives?
>>288980992She tanked dat
>>288980940yea i agree. that guys purpose was just to be the first victim of halkenburgs ability. And then one of halkenburgs men takes over his body and kills himself in front fo the seventh princes door. Similarly i think most of the minor characters will have specific roles to play that affect the war in unique ways, they arent meant to be major players.
>>288980919>>288980992Would
>>288981032>>288980940True. I just worry we do all this and then half of the minor characters die because Benjamin said “fuck if, everyone dies”. It would make me wonder if giving all this focus to minor characters would be worth it.That’s just one scenario though.

>>288981014here
>>288981095if anything causes a bunch of characters to die it will be the heil ly killing them to farm xp. A nen user is worth 20 lvls and a prince 50(!!!!). after martial law i dont think benjamin is gonna last, last we saw of him he had like 8 hours to live

>>288980892>Not enough exaggerated faces and bulging eyes for my tasteif only leorio was there
>>288980856>this is the iq of a one piece fan, they can't distinguish between one panel and a rare (needed) usage vs every other page and every chapter
>>288980790Halkenburg's ability requires him to be in a crowd of people who have willingly received his GSB's mark, summon the pooled aura by transmuting a bow, loose a random person's soul as an arrow (which can miss, killing the ally), and if it hits they swap souls, but the target is not killed, they gain the ally's body and can control it whenever the ally-in-target sleeps; killing the target-in-ally forces the target to gain their body back, though the ally regains control when they fall asleep, however killing the the ally-in-target's body permanently gives control of the ally's body to the target and kills the ally.This is very complicated, full of conditions, full of risk and the reward isn't actually that absurd when you break it down. Compare this to Illumi who can kill someone and gain full control of their body with no risk by just chucking a needle at them.Meanwhile, you're saying Tserriednich doesn't have a Nen ability yet, but their GSB alone amasses him with new abilities based on him murdering traitors, which the GSB itself can do if someone lies to him three times. That's a pretty massive reward. There's no conditions being set, there's no risk, and it's not a combination of his Hatsu and GSB it's just his GSB - which is another thing: you're comparing Halkenburg's Hatsu which uses his GSB as a requirement to Tserriednich's GSB alone. Unless you meant to say Tserriednich's Nen ability uses his GSB just like Halkenburg's does? That's more reasonable, but it's still a little much. Halkenburg needs to mark allies, Tserriednich doesn't. Halkenburg puts his life on the line, Tserriednich doesn't. Halkenburg gets a spy two-thirds of the day, Tserriednich gets a new Stand. Does this sound equivalent?
>>288980921>the majority of wobles guards where spies sent by other queens, they all got killed by silent majority.why did nobody notice this? is SM working for kura?
>>288981215B-B-BASED
>>288981215TOP KEK
*feels the aura*
>Gon>Killua>Kurapika>HisokaThese are the only characters i care. Fuck these 24 fodders guards i don't care about any of them
>>288981154Fraid so.
>>288981631anon kurapika is on 14 out of the 17 pages of this chapter...
>>288981324It's not just that. Togashi is extremely economical with his paneling. Compressing the reactions of 21 characters into a single narrow strip, rather than spreading them across multiple panels or pages.. He does this all the time. He also focuses on their facial expressions instead of drawing each character's full head, maximizing the amount of information he can fit into the space. More importantly, the reactions themselves are nuanced and rewarding to read. That single strip captures several different factions, so the information don't feel repetitive. Someone like Sarahell isn't particularly shocked because as a havenot she ultimately has little stake in the Kakin royal family's affairs. Furykov appears more concerned than his colleague Babimyna, likely because he's more invested in Benjamin's success, whereas Babimyna seems to have ulterior motives. Belerainte also doesn't seem nearly as surprised as the other Queens Guards, because as a Hunter he has little interest in Kakin's politics or the promotion race. Meanwhile, Sakata and Hashito look much more taken aback because this is information they've been trying to uncover for a long time. And the list goes on. The fact that a Warm Pisser >>288980856 looks at this and concludes, "Reaction panels, lmao. Just like my series!" is no different from seeing intricate dialogue, strategic maneuvering, and layered thinking, then dismissing it as "words words words". Much like their author, their entire train of thought operates on a surface level.
>>288979265so is kurapika hoping to throw off maniacs like this, atleast temporarily? i think she's the one who preached about needing to make sure that their sacrifice has value.
post-mortem nen.
>>288979265most anons here would and I'm no different
>>288981371at the very start of the war where most of wobles guards die - most people myself included just assumed it was wobels nen beast killing the spies. It isnt until silent majority kills one of the 4th princes men in kurapikas class that you realize its someone else. We still dont know anything about user of the ability so their motives are anyone's guess
>>288980896Pitou is a girl
so is tcb going to tl this or do i wait for the official translation? not reading ai crap
Reading the inner monologue from fodder/random characters actually gave me a headache.
>>288981215>guy that got rustled by this originally. ree
>>288981347nta, but I think you are forgetting something important - the stamina drain from a nen beast. One nen beast is already enough to make the princes feel rather tired; and this chapter explictly calls out how draining two is. Tserriednich is in much better shape than Fugetsu, so he can handle it better, but there is bound to be a limit to what he can take. If Tserriednich gains several nen beasts, he'll quickly find himself so exhausted that he won't be able to move, let alone use those abilities. Gaining too many abilities is actually a trap that would quickly fuck him over.
I can't see Illumi getting too much involved with the Hisoka plot. He's mainly there as an excuse to further the Nannika/Kalluto/Ai plot once he's on the dark continent.
>>288981883Don't forget that one of these so called fodder/random is silent majority.Also you never know which one is going to pull a Welfin and be a major plot mover in advance.
>>288980736>If Tserriednich gets a new King Crimson tier ability every time his horse kills a traitor [that'd too powerfull]There can very easily be a bunch of restrictions on this speculative ability, an obvious one might be that the traitor has to be an intimiate associate or even one of the private soldiers, that Tserriednich grew up with. Something like that would already make it worse than Benji's basic hatsu. Also remember that Parallel Future requires him to be in Zetsu which is massive downside.
Is next chapter going to be Oito's public humilliation as he tells her to go up there and declare she cheated on the king with Beyond and hope they believe it or something? Pika needs to back up his claim or no one will buy it.
It's inexcusable for Togashit to write so much bullshit for a bunch of nothing with the amount of time he takes to release chapters. This series would've been over with and be held in high regards if this nigga just let someone else draw for him. Now we get to see a light novel cosplay a manga.
>>288981971That's a one time thing, it doesn't happen in other arcs.
There's still no update on Bisky's romance subplot..
>>288979679why did Kurapika do it?
>>288982036Bisky has been getting mating pressed offscreen (both forms).
>>288982036Can it really be romance? Being with someone who is attracted to the parts of you that you hate is pretty offending.
Cute girl
>>288979890thats why i love this manga, even the fan theories arent retardedonly in this arc: >Chrollo fought with the help of Machi and the old dude of Sun and Moon>Ship Hisoka wasnt the real Hisoka (confirmed) >Pariston is Sheyla (sure, it was made long before this arc but with the phantom troupe flashback, it was reignited again) >and now, this theory that explain Tserr abilities
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peExzeeffJk
>>288982052Let's go
>>288982065I think Vergei's infatuation will actually be good for Biscuit, since having someone praise her true form could help her hate her body less.
>>288982115If he survives the boat, I bet he'll try to find some sort of dark continent super gemstone to woo Bisky.
>>288981971>Don't forgeti don't remember anymore who the fuck are 90% of these character or why are they there lmao
>>288981975>Also remember that Parallel Future requires him to be in Zetsu which is massive downside.It's not only a massive downside. It's a logistical impossibility.Unless the Nen Beast is the one fueling the ability instead.
>>288982126That's not the point. I'm sure she can be attractive to a lot of people, but it's not how she wants to look. Just because someone likes it, doesn't mean it's any less painful. Like, if I saw a person with scars and said they look badass or cool, that's just offensive and belittling, it's defining that person by how I see them, and not giving them a chance to be. And it matters to Bisky otherwise she wouldn't be so insecure about it and hide.
sex with cookie
>>288982196I'm not saying she'll start loving her roided out form or anything. I just think it'll take some of the edge off.
>>288982085>Chrollo fought with the help of Machi and the old dude of Sun and MoonThe owner of Sun and Moon is truly dead.But the thing about Sun and Moon making the Gallery Fake copies stay was only Hisoka's failed interpretation, resulted from Chrollo's deliberate explanation and misdirection.That interpretation would mean that Chrollo would have fewer copies than Hisoka expected, which would be only 20-30 + 1 new every couple seconds.He was immediately hit by 200.How do we explain this tenfold error from Hisoka's part?Chrollo wasn't making new puppets with Gallery Fake. Kortopi was. Chrollo's entire strategy in the first half of the fight was to distract Hisoka from this fact and make him come to a wrong conclusion about the number of puppets, until it was too late, and he was hit by the final wave.Hisoka realized this only after talking with Machi, and that's how he knew Kortopi was around to be killed in the first place.
People are too scared to admit that this series is just homework now.
>>288979189Crazy how most shonen line ups are struggling to coarse their anime back and hunterxhunter drops one chapter and everyone starts losing their minds!!!!.Very little mangaka can do this.

Pretty boring chapter. Feels like info dumps lately more than anything. This arc needs to stick the landing or it’ll be 100 chapters of people thinking in a room. The amount of delays for this arc doesn’t help I guess
>>288982497Cluck and Hina too
>>288982376I believe this, the look on hisokas face when he realizes chrollo cheated is very deliberate on togashis part. The miscalculated puppets and "fishing line" used to retrieve the antenna are obviously kortorpi and machi helping chrollo. We have to keep in mind chrollos last full fight against the zoldycks he also "cheated" by having illumi kill the ten dons. From chrollos perspective it was never truly a fight, it was a performance, he was putting on a show so he could get a chance to steal zeno or silvas hatsu. The fight against hisoka was the same. It was all a act, in reality kortorpi was helping him and machi was literally pulling strings in the background. It was a performance he put on to make hisoka happy before he was killed. And hisoka really enjoyed the fight until he comes back to life, has his talk with machi, and realizes it was all fake. The first time we see chrollo fight for real will likely be when he fucking loses it on the boat
>>288982533poor hisoka. chrollo didn't even bother trying to steal his bungee gum. ultimate disrespect
>>288982497Machi chapter soon
Not saying this describes you guys, but it always feels like everyone hypes up the return of HxH, only to then never actually talks about what happens in the chapters unless Hisoka or the Troupe is involved.
>>288982530Cluck's clucks
>>288982533Good interpretation, its also evidence of how much he values his waifu when he happily brutalizes Shalnark and Korptopi but just traps her in place for a little while
>>288982580Why would he steal a man's nen before killing him?
whomst've do those jellyfishies belong to?can we safely assume that the worm is Fuu's?
>>288982602This chapter was literally nothing. Togashi’s text walls of explaining relatively simple or pointless information can slog the pace down. When we had exciting stuff like Halkenbergs scheme starting or Cammy being shot the threads tended to be more exciting. Just a slow chapter coming off a shitty yugioh game a year ago
>>288982533That change of expression didn't come out of nowhere.Chrollo was lecturing Hisoka about "picking battles carefully and fighting as a team".Then Machi refers to that phrase "well be sure to pick your battles next time".Then it hits Hisoka. He, who was so smug, suddenly goes "chotto matte..."And then he does an 180 on her. He had paid her in advance to heal him, but all of a sudden he refuses her help, wanted to kill her (Togashi stopped him), and goes on about killing every Troupe member on sight.Why was he smiling and taking like a champ, but then all of a sudden got so mad?
Would you sex Cheadle, Cluck, and the bunny?
>>288982629he just wants to save her for last because she's the most sentimental of the lot. a fun game for him
>>288980856To be fair, it's not taking up page space. I wonder why he decided to do it, though. Maybe he wanted to make sure readers knew who all the characters were in the second class.>>288981371That was noticed, though? Right from the start.
>>288982602Only the last few pages had intriguing things to talk about and it was discussed a lot the past few days
>>288979189Bro had any moment of the year to release this and decide to do it during the world cup? See you guys in a month.
>>288982769Chapters take 15 minutes to read at most. What the hell are you even complaining about?
>>288980758reread the succession arc. all of it.
>>288982533>chrollo cheatedlol LMAO 10 years later and clowncucks still coping!

>>288982580is bungee gum even something you can steal? texture surprise sure, but bungee gum is just hisoka's aura imbued with properties. He'd have to yoink all his nen.Would he be able to steal killua's electric abilities? They're only usable because of who killua is
>>288982803Jesus this was 50+ chapters ago? This arc is taking forever lol
>>288982786What's the point of reading Hunter x Hunter if you don't stay hours of hours describing how shit the new chapter was?
>>288982904>is bungee gum even something you can steal?100%. And a pretty good ability for him to steal, at that.
>enjoy one piece>becomes a character clusterfuck and none of the characters you like get screentime anymore>enjoy bleach>becomes a character clusterfuck and none of the characters you like get screentime anymore>enjoy HxH>becomes a character clusterfuck and none of the characters you like get screentime anymoreMan I hate that this keeps happening.
>>288982803I hope the arc finishes one day so I can the entire thing in one fell swoop. Rereading once every few years is just not enough to retain the information on every page and something that gets muttered once 50 chapters ago can suddenly become relevant
>>288981958So his Guardian Spirit Beast is going to kill him. That's not very guardian-like.>>288981975It's a massive downside but the reward is worth it. It just feels like a normal Specialist Nen ability to me. Compare what you're saying to other Hunter x Hunter characters: Meruem gets the ability of Nen users when he eats them, Chrollo gets the ability of Nen users once he gets them to touch his book and learns all their information but they can recover their abilities and he loses them if they die, Benjamin gains the abilities of his private soldiers once they die, Morena grants Nen to people by kissing them and playing cards with them and once they've killed twenty normies or two Nen users they gain an ability of their choice.You're saying Tserriednich kills a normie whose close to him and he gets a new Nen ability. You don't notice the math being off here?

>>288982952Try reading something other than shonenshit. Battle shonen tends to think introducing a ton of characters improves the quality, and it might if they could balance all those characters, but more often than not it just turns into what you're talking about. I feel like One Piece is the one that, at least in recent times, inspired this kind of shit. IIRC Togashi even said he wanted to do this kind of thing after seeing One Piece do it.

>>288982883Start at chapter 340. It's only 71 chapters to catch up.
>>288982806im a huge chrollo fan, i like him much more than hisoka. I like this theory because not only is there solid proof, it fits chrollos character perfectly and makes his failure to kill hisoka even more horrible and frustrating for him. Chrollo is a performer. All the crimes they commit as the Spider are theatrical in nature. When uvo dies they literally "put on a big show" in memory of him. Togashi made sure to make it extra obvious with chrollos backstory before all the spiders start dying. Chrollo thought he could cheat hisoka with his usual theatre kid tactics and now Hisoka is killing the whole troupe to shatter his facade and bring the real chrollo out so they can fight for real.

>>288983064Enhancers disagree.
>>288982981Is there some kind of symbolism in the fact that Camilla rejects the GSB for her own Nen Beast? I feel like that, along with giving up her personal guards in favor of the Untouchables, should inform something particular about her character, but I'm not really sure. She seems to be serious about becoming King, so I don't think she rejects 'the divine right to rule' or something like that.
>>288983064>Powerscaling is so retarded. HxH fights are condition-ACK

>>288982950Maybe fulfilling the conditions was too much of a hassle while actively battling, Chrollo probably isn't used to stealing abilities during S tier battles and he normally just does the date rape method like with Neon

>>288982376>Chrollo wasn't making new puppets with Gallery Fake. Kortopi wasBut Kortopi was Nenless when Hisoka jumps him ?
>>288983196The biggest problem is that Skill Hunter requires the original user to stay alive, and Chrollo needed Hisoka DEAD.
>>288983014I do read a lot of other seriesI just don't understand why shonenshit keeps sidelining their well established characters
Pakunoda memory-erasing Memory Bomb relevance when?
>>288983215>But Kortopi was Nenless when Hisoka jumps him ?Who said that?Kortopi's ability is useless by itself against Hisoka, and their physical stats can't even be compared. Kortopi was dead regardless of having Nen or not.
>>288983014That's because the main appeal of battle shounen is seeing cool characters with cool abilities solve problems with those abilities so readers can fantasize about the possibilities, such as which ability they themselves might have. This is why Dragon Ball sucks in retrospect and its fans are mostly low IQ. As a trailblazer, Toriyama didn't realize what the true worth of the subgenre would be. His fans went on to realize it by writing their own battle shounen that capitalized on what he failed to do.>>288983064They're both, just like most series.

>>288982952In One Piece's case, I feel that only really applies to characters like Smoker, Law, or the former Warlords. Most other characters are either clearly arc exclusive, or the Straw Hats.

I dont think we have ever seen hisoka fight someone who physically outmatched him. How would he go about fighting someone like uvo or phinks???? He would have to lean heavily into his magician tricks like he did with kastro.
>>288983014It wasn't OP that inspired Togashi in this case. There's an interview with him on a 2016 Jump magazine where he says that Captain Tsubasa Junior Youth Arc is the one single arc with the most named characters he's ever seen in Shounen Jump, and set surpassing that with the Succession Arc in HxH as a personal goal for himself.
>>288983018>Machi when she sees Hisoka
JUST START THE FUCKING PHANTOM TROUPE FIGHTS ALREADY. GOD FUCKING DAMMIT, I'M SO FUCKING TIRED OF THIS SHIT. I WANT TO SEE SOME FUCKING FIGHTS FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.
>>288983247>This is why Dragon Ball sucks in retrospect and its fans are mostly low IQTerrible take, even Togashi is a DB fan. Battle shonen doesn't necessarily need every fight to be a puzzle, especially when a lot of the time the puzzle is solved through asspulls (Jojo's).

>Word Salad: The Manga>Another chapter where nothing happens and the author sets up more useless plot, biting more than his writing capabilities can chewHunter x Hunter fans really are just deep into their sunk cost fallacy and the hype around their favorite series is less about Hunter x Hunter itself and more of the possibility of the Madhouse anime returning (even though that team who made the 2011 anime long left Madhouse).

>>288983492nobus a weakling and he has micro en and a mirco penis. His specialty is likely using shu to power up his sword while his body remains frail. He is also a sentimental loser who gets attached to his enemies for no reason and he was overpowered and later outsmarted by a child. Hes also still not over uvos death, similar to how chrollo still isnt over paku. overall a pathetic display
>>288983014It depends on the arc. This current arc is an appropriate setting for a large cast since it's trying to be a complex game of succession. One Piece is also trying something similar with the final war it's building up to, but it's way messier, and there are a lot more dumb jobbers people will feel less inclined to care about. Bleach has big casts because it wants a lot of fights, which is likely a consequence of Soul Society introducing way too many characters. Bleach can have cool fights but it's the least interesting.
Chrollo > Illumi (Matches speed and has to tools to get around needles)Illumi > Hisoka (One needle and Clown is done for)Hisoka > Chrollo (Durability and physical strength)

>>288983601>Illumi > Hisokaif bungie gum is strong enough to protect hisoka from nen enhanced coins shot by an enhancer it's definitely strong enough to protect him from illumi's puny needles + hisoka is faster than chrollo
>>288983409Togashi is also a massive JJBA fan. Dragon Ball inspired an entire subgenre and Toriyama is a master at certain things, but as a member of that particular subgenre it's pretty garbage. Toriyama inspired multiple generations of mangaka to make better manga than he did, including Togashi. It's not about fights being puzzles, it's about individuality and nonlinearity. There's no point daydreaming about being a Dragon Ball character, because everyone has the exact same ability, everything in the entire series comes down to one-on-one death battles in the middle of nowhere and all that matters is the higher powerlevel (Goku is pretty much the only character that matters). That's too simple for someone with a triple digit IQ, it's boring. Might as well read martial arts manga.>>288983521Wing said he would've been Floor Master tier and maybe beat Hisoka had he simply focused on his Enhancement.
>>288983521>Kastro was never a threat to hisoka the entire fightNot true. The narrator (Togashi) says that, even after Kastro's secret was revealed, had him maintained his calm, he could've put up an honorable combat.But Hisoka was a specially destabilizing opponent for him, like Pitou was for Gon.
>>288979240Is Kancho actually the real Kancho or is the Guardian Beast just pretending to be Kancho?

>>288983447You're going to eat those words 15 years from now when the arc is finished and it was pure kino. One of the main reasons I'd want a new anime at this point is it would be easier to remember side characters when you have a voice attached to them
Hmmm, should I buckle up and READ the manga and enjoy these threads as they happen, or just marathon it when the arc's over?
>>288980758Zhang Lei sent Slakka to Room 1014 just to get rid of the spy placed n him by the second Queen. This vastly improve his position because it reduces the number of hostiles in his room by 50% and leaves only Coventoppa as a suspect of anything that happens to him, which is presumably why Coventoppa has done nothing but truthfully answer Zhang Lei's questions about Nen and think about the coin. Kurapika accepted because he was in such a precarious position and Zhang Lei was sending wo loyal guards with Slakka anyway.Slakka revealing himself as being an employee of the second Queen. which was apparently unknown to everyone else, damages the Zhang-Tsubeppa-Kurapika alliance because it brings to attention Zhang Lei was self-serving in the people he sent to Room 1014 or that the alliance with Kurapika somehow involves the second Queen. Either way Zhang Lei's position is damaged.
>>288980758This guy is based and 100% in the right for doing this btw
>>288983737unless you want to wait at least a decade, buckle up
>>288983645illumi isn't really the type to fight a fair fight. he'd try to pull the same type of shit as chrollo with hundreds of needlemen.
>>288983752hehAlright anon
>>288983537If it's not her baby then why is she risking her life for her and asking others to do the same? Also, this is all coming after Kurapika told Oito to trust him because he had a gambit to save Woble's life. I don't think that gambit would be, "Let me reveal Woble isn't actually yours - she isn't, right?" Seems more like this is BS. There hasn't been any other signs of Woble being illegitimate. Even when Longhi said a prince is Beyond's child, Oito just said it was possible since to be a participant you need to be the child of a queen. If she had a realization there, like, "Oh shit, does Woble not count," you'd think she would've said it then.>>288983547Her GSB's a Manipulator that looks like a sea anemone. It didn't make any attempt to protect her against Musse or Furykov. It must be shitting out jellyfish that manipulate people somehow.
>>288983722i forgot he already got oneshotted by shizuku despite his en mastery. what a bum
>>288983659
>>288983737You will have to read the arc multiple times to understand it so starting now is better than later
I suspect the reason why Woble is ineligible for succession is because she hasn’t demonstrated a desire to be king hence the loophole Kurapika is hoping for. But Kakin has been doing this for generations i’m sure they know what they’re doing by making the baby participate even if all they exist for is to make the pot better in the end for the future king.
>>288983722What did Chadhouse mean by this
>>288983737If we were on a hiatus, I wouldn't recommend. But we'll be getting new chapters every week for the next 5 months, so it's a great time to catch up and join the discussions.
>>288983447This. Not enough bulging eyes and STRONG NEN.
>>288982952That's really one of the best things about DB.Always kept the main cast tight and compact. I only realized after re-reading that Toriyama kept it 5/6-max per arc. If someone was useful? Used. Someone stopped being useful? Dropped. Someone dropped would be useful? Picked-up and re-used.The biggest problem now is that having a massive cast of hecking bug chunguses is good for pumping out endless merch. That ruins any and all narratives.
the succ war is probably ending next batch how crazy is that?
>>288983537Probably. I think the real prince has been swapped. Possibly benjamin/Beyond's kid with oito, since if the real 14th prince stays hidden and everyone else dies/self destructs... easy win. We don't exactly know how the older succession wars ended, but it's probably through trickery like this, since, As Kurapika said, the ritual ending while more than 1 prince is alive or everyone dying is the "risk" that gives power to this ritual.
>>288983316>>288981145>>288980692the classic /a/ overreacting to anything remotely interesting/funny trope
>>288983722Necessary Machi panel at the bottom
>>288983835The STRONG NEN discussions were very repetitive and blood-boiling at times, but since the last batch, we won so hard the discussion was killed. I feel like Thanos after doing the snap.
>>288979679So is Oito actually naked here? People keep saying that, but idk.
Kurapika used his Stealth Dolphin to TRAP and BETRAY Woble's Nen Beast, taking it out of the ceremony and thus invalidating her.
>>288979547Benjamin would unironicly had better chance if he just decided to immediatly start some bullshit, declare martial law and just bruteforce the conflict.
>>288979502I dont get what the 5th prince guards are acting so surprised about
>>288983781Important to note that Kurapika says it's to protect Wobble *and* the other young princes, just revealing Wobble isn't actually in the racing wouldn't make a difference in protecting say, Marayam or Fuugetsu. He's got some major bullshit in the plans.
>>288983447What’s your favorite series? I want to have better taste, can you state them for me?M
>>288983830Even if I reread it this week I'll have already forgotten majority of body guard names by next week
>>288983903I think that was his initial plan, but Kurapika's public announcement about Nen and the Spirit Beasts threw a wrench at it.
>>288983903Ben is going to die cursing Balsalmico not for being tricked by Halk and losing his body and getting him killed, but for not letting him ago apeshit on the boat in the first hour of conflict.
Zhang lei is still theory crafting about his shitcoins
>>288983447Mediocre chapter but I am enjoying the arc. Characters speculate a lot but you're a big boy aren't you? You should know what matters and what doesn't.
>>288983948>go apeshit>your military gets wrecked by the Hunter AssociationYeah, it would have gone great. Specially inside a boat where your numerical advantage is largely nullified.
>>288983975This, there's too many factions that would readily do mutual destruction with benjamin's faction. At best he could kill the nen-less princes.
>>288983827They just know
>>288983975Ben's Baton was unironically the best possible ability to compensate for this.
>>288983860>Benjamin succumbs to the poison>his GSB swaps his soul with his baby's: Woble>Sarahell uses chaos that breaks out in 1014 due to martial law to grab Woble>Woble uses Air Blow to blast her head offBut nah, Woble is legitimate. There's no way Oito would be parading around a different baby trusting Unma to protect her own. If a prince kills everyone except Woble, who's in hiding, then the royal family will collapse. That's bad for Unma. Unma might not know that, but why wouldn't she simply support Benjamin or Halkenburg, who actually have good chances to win? Why would she want some other slag's baby?Unless Woble is actually Unma's baby and she gave Benjamin's baby to Oito to parade around as Woble while she took care of her own. We already know Halkenburg is Unma's son despite the public believing him to be Duazul's - for seemingly no reason. But Unma's too old to have a baby, isn't she?This all just seems unnecessarily convoluted.
Benjamin’s personal ability is useless if he dies before the major of his team dies. Guy is going to have to fight using 3/4 weak fucking abilities
>>288984008he still has a better shot in an all-out war than a prolonged "cold war" which requires brains and strategy. that's just the type of guy he is.the way it is right now, he's just going to be grinded down and taken out.
>>288983857Yep Hisoka will sink the ship and sail to Whale Island on a rubber boat and become Gons stepdad
>>288984072>at least he would job to Bisky with varietyUh, sure.
>>288981215>>288981389>>288981487>>288981932I may as well post it again thenChrollo had 4 poems in yorknew while hisoka only had 2, hisokas second poem implied he would fight chrollo, the fact that he had no more implies he would dieno prep time weaker version of chrollo is still > hisoka according to togashi's own writingyou spics are a jokeand also it really is embarrassing how /a/ users screenshot and overreact to the most mild posts, you guys larp as if it's 2007 4chan or something and it's really embarrassingpathetic board full of 30 year old virgins desu
>>288984093He has the most powerful ability of them all, Air Blow, so it’s okay.
>>288984098Perhaps Bennyfags refuse to admit it, but the truth is that he was tardwrangled and hard carried by Balsamico. But there was so much this smart nigger could do when he is against something as broken as Hulk's power. The moment Balsamico left the scene Hulk instantly fumbled.

>>288982376>Chrollo wasn't making new puppets with Gallery Fake. Kortopi wasKortopi's clones last a day, and potentially affixing the sun and moon seals extends the duration indefinitely. Under the mechanics as stated, Chrollo must have just pre-made a large number of copies before the fight started, pre-stamped them and afixed the sun and moon seals. The wiki says Chrollo needs 3 - 5 seconds of contact for the the sun and moon ability to manifest, that's 600 - 100 seconds or between 10 - 17 minutes just to affix the seals for sun and moon to 200 gallery fake made puppets. He did simply not have that much idle time in the fight even if Koltopi is somewhere making clones for him mid fight, Chrollo doesn't have the time to affix seals on them, let alone affix the seals and place the order stamp on them.
>>288979377what the fuck is wrong with togashi's perspectiveor does kakin breed and raise blowjob height maids for royal family needs?
>>288979377Wait is Camilla the only one with Western-style maids?
How is the fight 10 years ago and Hisoka fans are still brain broken. In the afterword Togashi said he wanted the person who declared they’d win (Chrollo) to win, and he wrote it. If Chrollo cheated that’d make that meaningless because it’s not a fair win.
>>288984275she larps as a princess
>>288984133There is same insane potential. Predator and Owl Spy is a perfect combo
>>288984299Really. Even Hisoka plainly said it was retarded to let someone like Chrollo stack his deck so much against him.
>>288980713Yeah, waiting in general isn't easy...
I'm so lost, I blame the long ass hiatus
>>288979628>The black whale's voyage will take two months>Twelve days have passed so farSo is Togashi really planning to make this his deathbed arc? This would mean we're barely 1/4 of the way through if he keeps the same pacing.
>>288984299>If Chrollo cheatedThere is no cheating in a no holds barred death match
>>288984244I wouldnt put it past them, but the maids are mostly short asian women while the guards are the most imposing dudes they could find. Add in anime proportions and this is the sort of thing you get
>>288984235Here's why the puppets couldn't be pre-made:Without Order Stamp, Gallery Fake clones look like corpses. They would be carried out by the paramedics if they were there before the fight started. And we know they couldn't be stamped beforehand, because Order Stamp couldn't be active when Chrollo used the Black Voice + Convert Hands combo.What happened is that Chrollo didn't mark all the puppets with Sun and Moon. That wasn't needed. He just stamped most of them with Order Stamp (which can be done in an instant), and marked just a few with Sun and MoonThat's why Shalnark differentiates between the "exploding puppets" and the "200 other puppets" in pic related >>288982376If they were all marked with Sun and Moon, they would all be exploding puppets.
God fucking damn it I’m already horny for the next chapter. This next hiatus is going to hit like a brick
>>288984299And where exactly did Togashi or Chrollo say it was a fair victory?
>>288984343I re-read it again before the new chapter and I'm mostly following but it's difficult to keep track of the guards. I think I lost track around Halkenburg's ability when they start switching places.
>>288983645>In the Hunter x Hunter universe, Chrollo Lucilfer is generally depicted as having the edge in speed and agility. While Hisoka possesses greater raw physical strength and raw aura output, Chrollo's combat speed and mobility have consistently allowed him to outmaneuver high-tier fighters.
>>288984314She is a princess though, she’s just called a prince.
>>288984319>this is the ability Chrollo is looking for to beat Hisoka
I'm so retarded, I blame the long ass hiatus
>>288984412Wouldn't work. Predator only works of you figure out their ability yourself. Hisoka LOVES telling people about Bungee Gum, so he hard counters Predator.
>>288984390I don't care about what grok says hisoka has speedblitzed several enhancers
>>288979679>Kurapika and Oito having sex annuls her marriage with Nasubi>Oito is no longer the legal wife of Nasubi>Woble is no longer the child of a legal wife of Nasubi>Woble is no longer eligible to be kingKurapika's final solution is to fuck all of the queens. It's brilliant.
>>288979304Who? Goddamn, I need the chart.
>>288984475Chrollo did the crazy hand swipe thing in Yorknew
>>288984299Literally DURING THE FIGHT Chrollo lists "fighting as part of a team" as a valid strategy for winning, while saying he does everything needed to win.
>>288979423Perhaps I'm wrong here it's been along time since I read any of HxH (2 years) but shouldn't someone with enough skill be able to notice Sarahell is a nen user? Shouldn't Pika be able to stop that her Aura isn't just "normal" it's refined? Or, assuming she is Silent Majority shouldn't there be a similar vibe to them? Maybe I'm mixing power systems up but I feel like that should be possible no?
There are tons of potential to be had when you suddenly give everyone nen powers and equal opportunities to get out ahead. Unfortunately it will all be wasted as more creative, unique, and downright clever uses of their powers will give way to UNGA BUNGA 1 in 100000000000 strong nen plus teleport behind you powers with 300 bookmarks, 200 lives, and 10 king crimson 9999 IQ rubber nen plays that make even Adult Gon the weakest in terms of power levels. It’s starting and I can already see the baby being the strongest, most threatening thing on this boat simply because they were born different and that is not good writing.
>>288984547>even Adult GonHe stomps anything on the boat in ~3 seconds. Tserri wouldn't even have the time to think about going to Zetsu.
>Benjamin controls the military>Benjamin Baton inherits the abilities of people who graduated from the Royal Kakin Military Academy, and are part of Benjamin's private army>Tserriednich is a graduate of the Royal Kakin Military AcademyIf Benjamin were to name Tserriednich as a member of his private army, which he might technically be capable of doing, would he inhert Tserriednich's nen beasts when he died?
>>288984532If Sarahell is skilled enough, she should be able to conceal the fact she's a Nen user to most people. Furykov seems to see a particular 'something' when seeing the profile of a person's face, iirc, which allows him to detect even a master at hiding the fact they're a Nen user.
>>288979502>Bottom right panelReminds me of those Jojo Parodies you see in anime and manga where they cut to a realistic drawing of the character in deep thought.
>>288984458Kek it would be funny if that was a legit Predator counter
>>288979609This almost feels- and most of the Succession War to an extent like something completely different from Nen.
>>288984633>be Balsamilco>walking down the hall, doing guard shit>see Rihan coming around the corner>immediately make eye contact and start infodumping about your ability>Rihan breaks down into tears>chuckle as you walk away>you've done this every time you've seen Rihan since you've learned his ability
>>288979793Lol
tserri is playing slay the spire while everybody is killing each other
>>288981727Well said hunterchad
>>288983659She is a Nen Beast made from Kachou's aura with all the memories of Kachou. But the real Kachou is rotting either in a ship or in a coffin.
>>288984547You can't appreciate unique powers without STRONG NEN chads, you need an Uvo for every Chrollo, you know what I mean?
>>288983126She's not rejecting her GSB. She's been suppressing it with zetsu since the start. Maybe the're studying it with her private guards.
>>288983194Sickening but freaky taste
>>288984835Personally I think she is the real Kachou. She just turned into a Stand because why not if you are just going to give the fake all her memories and feelings anyway? Nen is weird in the sense that you can get beheaded at any time and then suddenly you turn into a superior genes bug girl a short time later.
>>288983606>born with same natural nenPokkle and Meruem?
>>288984111Melty emo wuss...
>>288985023This very much reads as her rejecting her GSB. She says she doesn't need it, because she has her own.
>>288979265imagine cammy without makeup
>>288979265that's such a good panel
>>288985162maybe her nen is powered by her believing it will always rev her.if she relied on her gsb then her necro cat could fail?
>>288983194>father x daughter Are you saying that Oito is Natsubi's daughterwife and thus, the real 14th Prince?
>>288979265>show, don't te-
>>288985038We literally saw her strangled corpse in the ship while she was hugging Fuugetsu in her bed at the same time.
>>288985249Or you know... she's really fucking arrogant and a bit stupid.
>>288985313he's literally showing and not telling
>>288979431The more words the more things to talk about, fella.
>>288985219Cammy is pure sex holy shit
>>288985394>>288985219Bimbo Machi look hot
I'm so tried of chapters with Kurapika being in a hotel room spouting endless exposition. It's been more than half the arc.
>>288985162Princes have no power over GSB's actions anyway. Not really rejecting, she's just indifferent.
>>288985432Just drop it then , and come back when it’s finished if you still care
>>288979265>Trying to trick Kurapika of all people with make up
I hope the Phantoms sneak out of the lower decks and kill everyone involved in this bullshit.
>>288985448I want more chapters of characters exploring the massive ship. That is where Gon and Killua would come in handy here.
>>288985445We know Zetsu causes the GSB to be dismissed with Tserriednech, and since she and her guards all know Nen, it seems like they would be able to tell.
>>288985219she might be hisoka's sister
>>288985473They better hurry, Tserriednich is going to powercreep them soon
>>288979609Basically, the goal is to ensure the nation's prosperity by sacrificing all but one prince via ritual but if no one rises to the top, the royal bloodline gets wiped out.
>>288985512the eyebrows give it away
>>288985511tell what ?
>>288985597That the GSB is dismissed when she goes into Zetsu
>>288981727kinoooooooooo
>>288985635Sex with Yusuke's mom
>>288985349I know, that's the joke :)
>>288985480calm down bro, its Togashi, if something , the fucker knows how to write and actually likes his manga, unlike that faggot of CSM

Succession War foreshadow
>>288985635>YukinaThe Ponzu of YYH
>be Camilla>receive as a gift from Kakin ancestors a Guardian Spirit Beast powered by a sacred ritual involving an enormous amount of nen>supress the GSB with zetsu probably making it inefficient
>>288979189Now im getting in to this now as a naruto fag.>do i start with 1999 anime or 2011>1999 sure looks and feels good
>>288985686Exactly. For some odd reason so many readers here have no goodwill for Togahsi despite him rarely writing bad arcs.You’d think these people would trust the process more with Togashi , especially knowing how meticulous he is.
>>288985570Machi will kill Hisoka
>>288985755Just watched 1999 and go read jjk
>>288985735Machi is Hieis sister
>>288985327Look at it this way. Kachou’s soul came through the same door that was used when the original left. The same door. It’s not like she just popped up out of nowhere when the original’s body was left behind. How else do you explain that?
>>288985770
>>288983239wouldn't it be cool if she still has her post mortem nen running around?
Will Togashi ever go back and explain how did Neon die?
>>288983360his mother is ugly
>>2889857552011 ruins the tone, but adapts more of the storyyou could watch 1999 all the way through, then pick up 2011 for the chimera ant arcdo not watch the movies, they are shit and a waste of time
>50 chapters on the ship just to get through 25% of the time limitThis is really going to last another 150 chapters, isn't it? There's no way Togashi spent all this time hyping up these literal who guards and maids learning Nen, influencing the Succession War, and competing for promotions only for none of it to matter in the end. I could easily see even the maids (Ladiolus, Iraldia, Yuri, Toneasta, etc) developing some extremely situational idol-song-inspired abilities and playing a crucial role in defending Seiko and Fugetsu.
>>288985701it's funny because anons' criticism of Togashi dono is >words words words

>>288985847if pitou begged for her life, would adult gon have cared?
i miss how active this place was 8 years ago. it's not just hxh threads at this point. the entire site is just dead.
>>288985939Maybe
>>288979265Who? What? Should I know or care?
>>288985939If there was any chance for Pitou to go home it was before she declared she'd kill him
there's something so unsettling about the way togashi draws corpses in the succession war, this guy 100% has a cadaver folder
>>288984353>That's why Shalnark differentiates between the "exploding puppets" and the "200 other puppets" in pic related >>288982376>If they were all marked with Sun and Moon, they would all be exploding puppets.The puppets only need one (1) seal to persist and they typically needed a more complex command than to "break Hisoka" for them to bring both seals together and explode so in other words the distinction Shalnark is making is between puppets that were ordered to explode and puppets that were ordered to "break hisoka". Overall my intuition is that it'd be simpler to just use Shalnark's antenna and phone without booking the ability or to have Machi use her nen strings to manipulate puppets, corpses or even living members of the crowd rather than to have Koltopi running around making clones, because Hisoka is expressly looking for concentrations of similar looking people and Kortopi has significantly worse physical stats than any member of the troupe.

>>288986057Big question is whether the succession war reaches a climax naturally by whittling down the contestants 1 by 1 (this will probably take a long time) or if ritual is broken somehow and more princes don't have to die, either way there's a lot of big characters who still need closure which could take a while for them to each get their turn

>>288986015This one was kinda funny. Bono literally punched her so hard, her neck twisted like a wind up doll
>>288986239it was a bad idea to challenge him when he wasn't wearing boxing gloves
>>288986158i only hope for Togashi finishing this arc before he kicks the bucket. However:> whittling down the contestants 1 by 1would be the best, in my opinion. This arc promised a wits royal rumble and that can be only obtained by having the princes dying one by one. >ritual is broken somehow there are many hints pointing about his outcome, i least i hope for the Phantom Troupe (including the zoldyck shits) dying for this.

I need at least three dead princes and three dead Spiders to feel good about this next batch.

Togashi may survive the next hiatus but no way can he last another four years, digits confirm

>>288986239That's not what happened. She woke up after getting punched and after confirming she blew his secret he snapped her neck.
>>288980337Anon...your comment pissed me off so much, I'll go into detail why Borksen's Card Game arc is sincerely one of best parts of the Succession War arc yet. As an individual who is HEAVILY into Card Games, specifically playing them competitively, I came to wonder, "how winnable is this game really?"THE BASICS:There are some things we can establish before we get into the calculation of probabilities. Some things I deduced in hopes of simplifying the conundrums at hand> I defined "winning the game" as in, Borksen achieving her goal and satisfying her desires, meaning> Flipping the "Yes"-card face-up last is losing the game> Flipping the "No"-card face-up last is losing the game> Flipping the "JOKER"-card face-up last is losing the game (since it only allows you to decide between "Yes" and "No")> Flipping the "X"-card face-up last is considered winning> Flipping the "RETURN"-card face-up last is considered winning (because it allows you to return the "X"-card)THE NUMBERS:I will try my best to list these down as understandable as possible> First thing I did, was list down Borksen's probability of flipping up either the "X"- or "RETURN"-cards last, and it is LOW AND BEHOLD 4.95%> buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut....what if......Borksen wasn't kill?> there's something extremely important we forgot: The "DEAL"-card> this card is so strong, it simplifies the game down to 2 situations: you keeping both "X" and "RETURN" in play with only 1 Yes/No-tier card, OR you having only 1 "X" or "RETURN" in circulation and 2 Yes/No-tier cards left> The probability of you winning the game after you still have "X" or "RETURN" in circulation is 50%> The probability of you winning the game if you only have either one of "X" or "RETURN" in circulation and 2x Yes/No equals 33%Cont. for the Synopsis...and I hope y'all like pic related, can't believe nobody has done the edit before lolol
>>288982803Who is Mandam supposed to be? I thought Satobi was Duazul’s Captain of the Guards.

Wait, if I'm not mistaken, having the dead bodies of each of the Princes is important isn't it? What happened to that one twin who died body?
>>288986432he's talking about the neck
>>288986414One of the best kind of media
>>288986465The martial law chapter was always just a way to have a cliffhanger and create an interesting mystery about Benjamin’s truthfulness
>>288985804It was Kachou's Nen Beast so it was next to her Prince and when she died, it took her shape.We are literally told it is the Nen Beast that has taken her shape and memories by narrator-san.
Kuroro cheated and everyone knows
I really doubt Kurapika is lying about Woble's eligibility. But given that Oito is a legitimate queen and the child doesn't have to be Nasubi's, I can't really interpret it as anything else than "Woble isn't Oito's child" which would kind of make her role in the succession contest totally unnecessary as why would Oito pretend to be Woble's mother and risk both the child and mother being killed?
>>288985844Probably just 90-100. Togashi does random time jumps all the time and with more dead characters there are fewer plotlines.
>>288984479>Here we thought it was Netero the one doing the cucking>It was KurapikaBRAVO
>>288985804she was conjured out of her life's nen you fucking idiot. if you stat doubting the very description of abilities you can't rely on the premise itself
>>288981727I've been enlightened, Hunterchad.
>>288986414It's dumb fun
>>288984623Furykov should notice right away that Sarahel is a Nen user, but also, like with Longhi, he doesn’t have much motivation to expose potential assassins to Kurapika. Ironic, because Benjamin would have probably been in a better position if Furykov just had Longhi thrown in jail and Kurapika was unable to make a contract with her.

>>288986677Monster
>>288986432
>>288986347SYNOPSISTo put this all into context, these last days I kept thinking, "did Borksen play this game well?" and unironically, SHE COULD NOT HAVE PLAYED MORENA'S GAME ANY BETTER. Borksen immediately recognized that she needs to get the "X"-card back in rotation, in hopes of increasing her win chance in this futile endeavor. > Why did she lose then?There are some pages/panels in which Borksen mentions that the risk/reward, or vows and limitations are high for Morena too, but I have to disagree. Call it "the fourth Trap of this Card Game", if you will.Think about this, if Borksen plays this game OPTIMALLY and still has both of her win conditions available, her success rate is at a whooping 50%. Even if EVERYTHING GOES RIGHT FOR HER, SHE STILL HAS TO FLIP A COIN.Shieet, if I was in the same situation and didn't know about the importance of vows and limitations or how Nen properly works, OF COURSE I WOULD CHEAT, ARE YOU CRAZY?Togashi-sensei is definitely familiar with quite some card games, the game's rules perfectly simulate the idea of dread and hopelessness. Sasuga.This is genuinely the reason I love the Succession War Arc though. The readers get bombarded with information, mindsets, characteristics, thought-processes, and we are able to deduce chapters (years in real time) earlier how these things will play out. It's extremely rewarding. I am starting to like this arc more than Chimera Ant.
>>288986584Isn't a nen beast supposed to be an extension of the owner's soul? it's just Kachou but reincarnated through Nen the same as Kite and the Chimera Ant victims.
>>288982735bottom 2 panels is just the average relationship in 2026
is the series gonna be finished?
>>288986584It is a nen beast with Kachou’s soul. It literally absorbed her essence when she died. Does that count? You would have to make an argument that a nen beast already has a soul which in this case doesn’t look true.>>288986623>I don’t know how to read but I know i’m right

Why are Mandam and Satobi both considered Duazul’s Captain of the Guards? I feel like this is something that got lost in translation.
>>288982984You are downplaying the conditions of that ability. >You're saying Tserriednich kills a normie whose close to him and he gets a new Nen abilityThey need to betray him 3 times.The Nen beast does mark them, or did you forget about Theta's face wound?The Nen beast warns them verbally before the 3'rd strike. Explaining your ability is a strong condition, just stop betraying him and you're safe. Tserri is 1 in 1 billion talent, there are only a handful of humans like him in the world, this has always been the case in HxH, Greed Island tier normies get shit, and genetic freaks, or super-eugenics Chimera Ants get incredibly broken abilities. (Meleoron's bullshit)

>>288987263She still has those nen curses
>>288986856Theta herself calls the second beast his own Specialist ability. His GSB doesn't kill people for betraying him, it attacks people for lying to him. It's possible the butler told him three lies, killed him and turned him into a Nen beast, but Theta makes no mention of this and Tserriednich isn't surprised by how the butler died. It would also mean the Nen beast IS the butler somehow, even though we saw his body parts on the floor. It just doesn't make sense to work that way.You're also contradicting yourself. Your GSB has nothing to do with your talent. If you're saying he deserves a strong ability because he's talented, that's his Hatsu, not his GSB. If you're saying his Hatsu relies on his GSB, that's fine, but it isn't clear how you get from "turning someone into something inhuman", which still leaves your body parts on the floor, to an autonomous Nen beast which bears zero resemblance to you and relies entirely on Tserriednich's aura anyway.It's a cool theory, it just isn't true.
>>288987263>Any theories on how long she lasts ?I know that I wouldn't longer than 3 mins

>>288979555Why is he like this
>>288987784I agree, but the way Kurapika words it makes it seem like something that might happen over time, instead of instantaneously.

>>288984709it kind of just reminds me of greed island but instead of an island its on a giant boat the size of a small island

>>288986039>rather than to have Koltopi running around making clones, because Hisoka is expressly looking for concentrations of similar looking people and Kortopi has significantly worse physical stats than any member of the troupe.And why do you think Chrollo spend so much time and exposed himself so needlessly to distract Hisoka, when we know this had absolutely nothing to do with his finishing strategy?What did the Convert Hands fake achieve, other than buy time for someone else to make copies (since Chrollo couldn't be making them with those two abilities active)?

>>288987915Genthru can attach a bomb to a victim by following two conditions, in no particular order: he must touch the target while saying the word "Bomber" and explain both of his abilities in full(and in proper sequence).The bomb is then conjured and its countdown timer starts at 6000. The timers are linked to his victims' pulses, counting down faster if their heart rates increase. When it reaches 0, the target explodes from the inside, with the blast being ten times more powerful than that of Little Flower. In order to nullify this ability, the victim needs to touch Genthru and say, "I caught the Bomber". Genthru can detonate the bombs at any time when touching thumbs together with Sub and Bara, with all three saying the word "Release". Though he is a Conjurer, he also employs Emission and Manipulation to make this ability possible.

>>288983564>>288983218if anything, hisoka forcing his nen to resurrect him increases the likelihood his nen and technique will persist after death, because it's done it before and can likely do so again, like camilla
