What's his endgame?
>>289017554Wow he's got a Cloud figurine.
I think Fuugetsu was cursed by one of The Bastards from Beyond. Hear me out:>I don't think it was an effect of trying to leave the boat, since the hands kill and they didn't get her.>Probably not Camilla's suicide squad either, since they're still looking to curse Woble as a test. Also, their curse involves forced zetsu>Most likely, then, is that Shikaku was one of Beyond's children and his death triggered a curse on Fuugetsu, though due to the circumstances it wasn't powerful enough to immediately kill her The only question is how Fuu will be cured and I have no idea there. Maybe someone on board is a nen exorcist? I know Tse wants to meet with Melody, so maybe Theta is an exorcist and lifting the curse will be part of the terms of an alliance

Remember when Chrollo used to be one of the most dangerous characters?He went from confidently 2v1ing the legendary zoldycks to fully acknowledging he doesn't have the power to 1v1 Hisoka.
>>289018926Just a meme theory that Milluki being manipulator towards specialist can control dolls remotely
>>289019115Since he's a bit of a technician it wouldn't surprise me if he could mix technology with nen use, resulting in this robot. But that's of course all speculation.She could also just be larping as a robot.
Oito is freaking out because Woble's face is getting slashed
>>289019022>Chrollo needed a big brain plan in order to defeat Hisoka>is probably that Chrollo received help from his faggot friends >even knowing all Hisoka´s abilities, Chrollo is still worried to fight him again, and is in a search for a more op hatsu >meanwhile... the ""best"" assassins in the world jumped him 2vs1 in a unplanned battle and they both admitted that Chrollo was much for both of them.

>>289018989You mention VIIslop
>>289019195Illumi is around hisoka's level, zeno & silva should be around his level if not stronger
>>289018809I think Togashi will give us plenty of reactions from these random goons when they inevitably eat shit.
>>289019193Silva and Zeno struggling so much against Chrollo is still weird to me. I know it’s HxH so fights aren’t a clear stronger wins but for the current head of the Zoldycks and Netero’s friend it shouldn’t have been such a struggle.
>>289019184Oito and Mito sold into prostitution and entertain the new King and it's jester

>>289019115
>>289019193>>289019195Zoldicks are more risk-averse than Hisoka. They're just very apprehensive fighting someone with an unlimited bag of tricks when their whole schtick is getting easy paydays by killing scrubs.Hisoka does it for the love of the game and only after fucking around and finding out does he consider he bit off more than he can chew."they aren't paying us enough for this shit" vs "give me your strongest fighters" fight faggotry.

>>289019380I thinking
>>289019254>Hisoka is probably 30 by the current arc>Illumi was 24 according to a data bookthe clown groomed Illumi and broke his virginal bussy. Thats why Illlumi is so strange even by Zoldyck standars, because he still is dealing with the rape trauma. Hisoka overrates him because he doesnt want to kill his first fucktoy, and even proposed him.
>>289019380And he took his GF's advice to heart, insta-netting him two kills, with ten more on the way.
>>289019332The color pages often look a little more spoilery compared to the volume covers which are kind of basicKind of a shame because those color pages would look a little more intriguing at a book store if you've never seen the series

>>289019296>He's below Hisoka level at 95 pointsThat's not an absolute rating. HxH is not dbz. Hisoka would struggle to fight Illumi because a single needle would end the fight.
Scholars!
>>289019267>Silva and Zeno struggling so much against Chrollo is still weird to me.They literally took 0 damage and would have successfully assassinated him if not for the phone call. Chrollo was trying to capture them so they had to fight cautiously.
>>289019772Illumi's needles are fairly restrictive; he needs to stick them inside someone's brain and that wouldn't be too tough for Hisoka to defend against. Hisoka's scale doesn't seem to be purely about strength - his favorites are Chrollo, Gon, and Illumi, but guys like Netero or Razor are obscenely strong and he's only slightly interested in them

Hot take: Togashi isn’t utilizing the medium to the best of his abilities right now with the walls of text, but the content is so fucking great that I really don’t even care. I’d probably hate yorknew in this current arc style. Where every minor character gets their own lengthy perspective/thoughts, from the shadow beasts to mafia, etc. but the succession war is just so fucking good from a plot/character/entertainment perspective my personal complaints are whatever
>>289019987Starting fresh isn't so bad
>>289020281Yorknew in the current writing style would be funny. Worm getting an entire page of text after his fingers get broken is a funny thought.
I still can't believe we're getting new chapter in less than 3 days guys
So what exactly was the evolutionary benefit for the CAs, after all this effort for ultimate evolution to have their top RG get gapped by a run of the mill genius enchancer at his peak?
>>289020379it's fun
>>289020383>run of the mill genius enchancerthe whole freeks (freaks. wink wink.) line is enhanced by stuff found in the dark continent so it wasn't fair for the ants.
>>289020383Freecs are another peak of evolution as attested to by the fact that Don has survived in the DC for centuries
>Chrollo needs to jump through hoops and steal a godly artifact just to upgrade his book just so he has a CHANCE at MAYBE stealing an ability that has a POSSIBILITY of beating Hisoka>Kurapika can just stab you with a chain, drain all your aura, and steal the ability
>>289020383>run of the mill genius enchancer at his peak?The transformation was Gon if he literally spent decades doing nothing but obsessively training like Netero. Even then he still loses to post-rose Meruem.
>>289020557Kurapika has strong nen so it checks out
>>289020626>Even then he still loses to post-rose MeruemPost-rose Meruem dies of aids before the fight ends thobeit?
>>289017485>>289017554According to Togashi's chart Milluki is the only Specialist who became Specialist from their original category (Manipulator)besides Kurapika from among all known characters, btw
>>289020557i know this is shitposting but Kurapika steals it for an hour while Kuroro steals it until the target dies
If Kurapika believed someone was in the troupe and used his nen against them only to learn afterwards they were lying what would happen?
>>289020743I think he would die
>>289019193Hisoka still lost faggot so he's a fraud as much as Meruem. Plus big brain energy > raw power Unga bunga in this series.
>>289020743nothing
>>289020743he would 'die' only to be revived by post-mortem healing chain wrapped around his heart with the will to revive him if he dies.
>>289020743If intention makes any difference, then the chain would do nothing and nothing would happen. If not, then he dies.

I’m so happy Togashi is back to continue his magnum opus! We can rejoice! I can’t wait for the next chapter! I especially loved the color art! The parallel with Demons is inching closer

The last time i enjoyed reading inner monologues this much was in search of lost time. Christ, despite your small faults Togashi, your works are enthralling ! Rejoice!
>>289020743It's part of the risk explicitly stating usage against troupe members.
Apparently, the Japs think Kurapika talks and acts like an asshole.

A lot of people in these threads seem to think that its hard to come up with good transmutation abilities. They bring up the low amount of transmuters in the manga as proof. But i feel the opposite, here are 5 powerful transmuter hatsus i thought of. 1. Giving your nen the properties of a radio. Allows you record and also play audio from your nen. If you play a song during a fight and time your attacks to the beat, your attacks get way stronger. This 2nd part would be enhancement. You can also record people with no one knowing and no proof.2. Giving your nen the properties of mushrooms. You can use this to abosrb nutrients with your nen which can be used for healing or powering up. People can bit your nen for various psychedelic effects or cognitive boosts. Mushrooms are really freaky so you can weird with the properties. 3. Giving your nen the properties of a diamond. Makes your aura super hard so increases defense. You can use the hard edges for slashing attacks and gutting. You can refract light, and enhance the light that passes through your aura and turn it into lasers. 4. Giving your nen the properties of ink. You can draw things with your ink aura and then with conjuration the nen drawings come to live and become nen beasts based on what you draw. 5. Giving your nen the properties of magnetism. Self explanatory really. Attract metal objects and repel. Can combine with both enhancement and conjuration for cool affects.These are all transmuter hatsus that really on taking properties from one thing. And they avoid having to expose yourself to something super painful like killua. But transmuters can combine properties from multiple things like hisoka who takes properties from both rubber and gum. I came up with these a while back cuz i like thinking up hatsus. To be honest, I think the reason there are so few transumters compared to other categories is their powers are more cliche "anime" powers so togashi avoids them.

Ranking of all the smart-pants in HxH?
>>289021458this is canon, kurapika is a very stubborn and rude person. Its mentioned in the manga multiple times but it dosnt come across as much in english. The most recent time it really came up in english is when he pissed of bisky lol. It dosnt help that a lot of the western fanbase tend to view him as very docile and feminine when hes the complete opposite.
>>289021657Menchi
>>289021458Makes sense coming from a child genius. Probably would've mellowed out if nor for the whole "my entire bloodline is dead" bit.
>>289021607Maybe with a extremely overpowered specialist ability. Resurrecting the dead and turning back time are both way beyond the scope of normal nen. Even if there was someone with a hatsu that could do it, it would probably come at a heavy cost. Not even alluka could do it desu
>>289021655thinkin' about chemical weapons, might lose my bodily autonomy, idk
>>289021680Sad, I assume most anons know the large amount of characters of the boat arc is inspired by a soccer manga
>>2890217301000 men, maybe more
>>289020281I would love Yorknew in the current style. We would have details on all the Dons and Shadow Beasts, setting them up as big, recurring threats, only to watch them get torn apart by the Phantom Troupe. Could you imagine the Uvo/Pika fight? We'd get three chapters EACH of Uvo analyzing Pika's Chains. It would be kino.
>>289021480He comes off as very polite, but easily triggered in York New and now on the ship. Sure sometimes he's rude like during his nen training. The guy teaching him is a saint. However outside of that part he never really came across as an asshole, just cold.
>>289021796I didn't know that. Any examples?
>>289021808
>>289021730There can be only one Chi
>>289021677It's primarily difficult if the ability is raw transmutation. Your examples are good, but a lot of them are combined with a secondary category. There's like 4 guys in the whole manga who have a Transmutation hatsu that isn't mixed with anything else. 4 and not 6 because the hand guy in Heaven's Arena would need manipulation to move the limb. I guess Zeno fits the criteria, but his Dragon Head doesn't seem to do anything on its own; it's the basis for subsequent techniques.
>>289021607Maybe with On, the FORBIDDEN 7TH NEN.
Hoo hooo, yes Machi, ouuuuuuBungee Cum had the properties of both Rubber AND Cum
>>289021826>We'd get three chapters EACH of Uvo analyzing Pika's ChainsThe implication that we'd get pages upon pages of Uvo internal monologue when Holy Chain and Judgment Chain appear is sending me.
>>289021932What was On again? Some chuni-evil nen or what?
>>289021989Yes
>>289021717>the western fanbase tend to view him as very docile and feminine when hes the complete opposite.That's just '99 gaypikaKurapika is a man's man, the alpha in nearly every situation

>>289022066>If you want your royal lineage's nen ritual to bring forth the ability to "adapt through the ages and manipulate the masses" then it needs to leave open within itself the possibility of you falling from power [if you fuck up].That's how I read it anyhow.

>>289022066I imagine that no one really likes the Kakin family because they're so obviously evil and it's the nen keeping them from total collapse.
>>289022234Huh? That's the most obvious part. The guard's just having a Freudian slip and almost called the king a dictator (which he is but shouldn't say publicly given the connotation). Not sure why that's what (You) found confusing.
>>289022189During there fight, Machi call back to there first encounter, when she healed him after his fight with Kastro. She will think that she has him, but Hisoka will reveal an aspect of his power or technique that she isn't aware of, echoing his "even if my opponent knows my techniques, they're so adaptable, it doesn't cause me any problems."
>>289022270No? its explicitly said they bring wealth to the people It's like a good version of america (the rulers stay in power and rape kids and engage in dark stuff but they don't horde the money and give back to citizens)

I don’t understand how exactly this ritual brings prosperity to a nation. It’s just energy that lets you do magic.
>Theta is a redheadThe Silence of The Lambs comparisons are through the roof
>>289022659That’s not official. It’s clear Togashi intends on her being blonde.
>>289022598Nen can have a greater effect on causality, Ai lore will likely elaborate on this further.
>>289022598Similar way Greed Island works
>>289022566
>>289022659I like her design, remind me of Mito-san.
>>289020383Dumb, biology-illiterate question. Their ancestral evolutionary environment is the Dark Continent. What their (mal)adaptations lead to outside of it is besides the point. About as intelligent as asking "So what exactly what was the evolutionary benefit for me to balloon to a fatty fat fat who can't even walk on his own two legs anymore just 'cause from eating, something I literally need to do". This (abundant fast food in the analogy, nen-using humans in HxH) wasn't part of the environment and so it wasn't factored in.
If the ritual uses the harvested nen from the dead princes then I guess that means they never had a king with a narrow urethra who only had a single kid.
>>289021730Cerebella and Princess Daisy of HxH, I think so.

>>289017554>Milluki was first introduced in 1999Back when Milluki was first introduced PCs where fringe accounting machines used for spreadsheets, e-mail, writing reports, presentations and doing painfully slow lookup work on a dial up connection. Imagine Togashi giving him some innocuous technopathy nen ability back then and then 27 years later, computers are mnore advanced and more common and Milluki is suddenly completely busted.
>>289021796we don't
>>289018268What I love about the Sarahel makeup tutorial page is Togashi has a long-running habit of debuting a character with very distinctive, often downright ugly facial designs and then over repeated drawings softening and streamlining their features making them more pleasant and appealing. And now he's just speedrunning the whole process in a single page. That's commitment to the bit.

this youtuber is saying Kurapika is trying to flush out Beyond's kid prince or anyone who knows about it by saying Woble isn't eligible for the contest by pretending to not know the rule about it not being a requirement to be a direct descendant of Nasubi but from one of his queens.i don't get the logic.what do you guys think?

>>289022785the rules determine that a prince ONLY needs to be recognized as a kid birthed from a queen. So.....
Woble isn't eligible because this is clearly not the same baby.
I'm rereading, and the four people in Kurapika's first classes that Furykov saw were hiding Nen abilities were Loberry, Shedule, Yuhrai, and Longhi, right? Loberry was the parasite host of Silent Majority and couldn't use Nen on her own. Shedule and Yuhrai awakened Nen for the same reason Oito did, they recieved a Nen Attack from Halkenburg's Guardian Spirit Beast as part. And Longhi had her own reasons.So Silent Majority's user isn't actually present in 1014, was it? Seems likely that Loberry was infested elsewhere and Silent Majority only activated once she got to Kurapika's class.

>>289023796that voraciousdrake dude has a theory about it. it was either Musashi or whatever his names was the Sale Sale guard or the other Sale Sale guard not in the room.
>>289022014>Kurapika is a manFalse.
>>289022311Please don't post on the Internet if you're low IQ. Go outside and play in traffic or something.>>289023796That's what makes the most sense from the reader's perspective, especially since the initial attacks were carried out when none of these people were in the room, except Kurapika, Oito, Woble, Shimano and Bill - and Kurapika cleared everyone with his Dowsing Chain. It seems none of them are able to figure out that the ability actually uses an invisible doll that follows people. But a lot of fans don't like that explanation because they say it violates how you're supposed to write a mystery. Some anon pointed out that Kurapika hasn't mentioned the assassin literally being in the room in a long time, it was just Furykov betting on Longhi and now he's at a loss for what's going on.
>>289023352I see two charms there.
>>289024003I could see it, but I don't get the incentive for the attacks. Sale-Sale didn't really go on the offensive and order his guards to assassinate the other princes, and Silent Majority has continuously killed the guards in 1014, but also only ones unaffiliated with protecting Woble. Why keep killing, with so many witnesses? Were they trying to scare people off so they could assassinate Woble/Oito?

>>289020557>Chrollo needs to jump through hoops and steal a godly artifact just to upgrade his book just so he has a CHANCE at MAYBE stealing an ability that has a POSSIBILITY of beating HisokaDoes the requirement of leveling up his book imply that there is a canonical 'tier list' of nen abilities? What determines whether or not an ability requires a level-up to steal?
>>289024371I shudder to think what Ouji would do if he were involved in this...
>>289024050If Silent Majority's marionette has to be in the room to summon the snake nen beasts, then it seems logical to assume one of the original guards was possessed before the attacks started. It's likely safe to assume that Silent Majority probably wouldn't attack the host, because then the user would have to possess a new target to enter 1014 and continue killing.We know it's not Bill or Shimano, because then Loberry wouldn't be needed as the new host. So it was either Sayurd, the three guards that Sayurd was forced to kill, or the two attendants who resigned rather than stay at a site of mass murder. None of them made any note of the marionette, but it's likely none of them noticed it either. I doubt it's Sayurd, because as a Nen user he'd probably have picked up on the marionette. So my guess is one of the two attendants who resigned was the first host, and after they left the Silent Majority user had to possess a new host, and probably kept using attendants because they rouse less suspicion than guards, who may be hiding Nen abilities.But then who would keep meeting attendants to possess them with Silent Majority? One of the queens?

>>289025175nen is the best power system cuz it balances simple punch harder raw power abilities, with super complex hax bullshit. Both have there place and you never know exactly how a fight between 2 nen users would go. Its all circumstantial, there's no absolutes in nen. Chadhancers have the most raw power and dont need complex abilities to be strong, they have a lot of raw power, defense and versatility. Specialists/conjurers can come up with some crazy bullshit but they pay the price with strict conditions and their hatsus are often very situational and specific.

>>289025442>drug her and change the baby
>>289025424from chrollos pov this entire fight was a performance. He had already set it up so illumi would kill the 10 dons. This entire fight he was putting on a show so he could have an opportunity to steal zeno or silvas hatsu. In the end zeno even calls him out for it, neither of them were going all out and things likely would have been a lot different if they were. Combat in hxh is so circumstantial anyway the discussions like this are pretty much pointless.
>>289025427Well, let's see:>We all know why chain jail is OP >Dowsing chain is a fairly low power utility hatsu. I don't think it uses up that much memory>Healing chain is also very simple. Likely any enhancer could do something similar if he tried. It's also shit without emperor time>Judgement chain is mid tier as far as manipulation abilities go. Seems like he can only impose two rules and he can only do it if they're restrained (or voluntarily). >Stealth Dolphin is pretty goddamn bullshit no argument there>Emperor time is powerful but in a more fair waySo Pika has three OP abilities and three meh abilities. His effectiveness mainly comes from having enough versatility to be useful in almost every situation.

There are lots of people in the US who have money they don't deserve. They're mostly fat brown women.>>289024419It's hard to say exactly what's going on. Loberry was marked somehow, but even after she was arrested, the doll was still in 1014 and killed again. That was nine days ago and it hasn't attacked since. Perhaps the doll didn't follow Loberry into the room, since it didn't need to follow her out, and it just marked her to use her as a distraction for an attack. If that's the case, the doll could've been in the room the entire time. Someone could've planted it before departure.But if the marking really is something that allows the doll to follow people around, then that would mean whoever first brought the doll into the room could have left and it simply stayed behind, but then how/why mark Loberry? Perhaps the user needed a new mark not because their original mark left, but their original mark died. The maid Vincent killed or the first or second queen's guards that Sayird killed could've been the one to bring the doll in, unknowingly. Kurapika tested them and none of them knew about the succession war, so they didn't do it intentionally. But Woody died in the bathroom and the other four died while Kurapika was retrieving Oito and Woble from the banquet or whatever.Back when Kurapika first saw Woody's corpse, he immediately challenged the idea that the assassin was in the room, because he knew it was Nen. The idea that the assassin must be in the room came about later. Furykov thinks they must be but can't find them and lots of readers insist they must be, because storytelling.
Stealing abilities is a bullshit talent that only an elementally school writer or equivalent would create for their donut bullshit character to make them more interesting for cheap. Basically the equivalent of isekai writers.

One day I'll make a docx/pdf or something regarding the entire details of the massacre, but for now, have this.
>>289025672I would normally agree with you, except I consider HxH to be maybe the only exception. All the conditions that power copiers have to abide makes them interesting to me.
>>289021607In real life, resurrecting the dead should be pretty easy, turning back time would be incredibly difficult. In Hunter x Hunter, though, and most manga honestly, resurrecting the dead is treated as basically impossible while turning back time is difficult but someone at some point will learn how to do it.>>289025175>>but muh nen is le based system that dont rely on retarded shounen power levels>>a victory in this SMART anime depends on circunstances and not in brutal dumd phyisical powerMost battle shounen are both, though. Doesn't everyone know that? Pick a battle shounen, I'll give an example of both powerlevel supremacy and circumstantial victories.Also, who said Hunter x Hunter doesn't have powerlevels? The source material doesn't. Everything has powerlevels. Real life has powerlevels.
>>289025688just facts
>>289025515I hate this. The Zoldycks won tactically and strategically. If Chrollo could have killed the Zoldycks he would have killed them like he killed the other dozen assassins that night. But he couldn't, he couldn't even steal their availability like he wanted. He had to pay the Zoldycks not to kill him and even then he only survived by a razors edge. The fact Illumi saved him should tell people exactly how low diffed Chrollo was. He was so defeated by them he never even escaped the net the Zoldycks cast, the fight was rigged from the start

>>289025506>>the plan of the ZoldFRAUDS required one of them to be sacrificed in order to defeat no prep time ChrolloZeno was telling Silva not to hold back once he pinned Chrollo down.His sacrifice wasn't necessary because Silva went through with the attack and Zeno survived anyway.When Illumi called and asked if his client was still alive, Silva responded "Just barely". At that point, Chrollo was a sitting duck under a pile of rubble.He even asked Silva: "Aren't you going to finish me off?". He recognized his defeat.
>>289025424I don't undertand how he could have stolen their abilities when the requirements include the user to explain him his ability. Silva and Zeno would never have explained him how their ability works even under torture.
>>289025743It’s pure “I win because I satisfied MY condition” cope. This type of writing fails to take into account resistances for this exact scenario like what if the victim simply got their power back by training harder or visiting a nen exorcist? What if they have natural born immunity to losing their powers? What if they die temporarily and come back? It’s not a foolproof ability but it’s definitely overtuned.
What does /a/ think Oito's nen type is?
>>289025427Ignoring Emperor Time bullshit, Pika has a lot more resolve than most other people and I think that reflects on his nen prowess. He's willing to do anything to retrieve the scarlet eyes and that level of dedication is going to reflect in his nen.
>>289025932Chrollo simply underestimated them.Partly because he had just read his fortune, and he knew he would be fine.

It's not too dissimilar to Pakunoda's ability, though we don't know exactly how she reads the memories of objects. Usually Stands are stronger than Nen abilities, though. Probably a fine payoff since Nen also turns you superhuman. I think if Togashi were to make Moody Blues, he'd give it one or two conditions. It might be something like a video recorder that sees into the past as if you were standing there.

>>289025958Pull up the Hisoka chart, lets find out
>>289025948That's all theoretical stuff though. All the actual stuff we've gotten related to power copying has been really cool. Leol/Hagya overestimating himself and getting bodied by Morel through simple deduction and planning, Chrollo's highly-complex strategy in dealing with Hisoka, and now I have a feeling that Togashi has concealed and finally introduced Steal Chain because he is very specifically planning on using its flaws and weakness as noose for Kurapika to hang himself with. I'll conceed that its kind of lame that Togashi has concealed Chrollo's conditions for so long, but otherwise I think Skill Hunter is really cool aesthetically.
>>289025958>>289026031I think she's probably either a conjurer (high-strung) or emitter (emotionally volatile) given her personality. Her ability would probably be something to protect Woble, which could be done with like half the categories, though.

Their powers would disappear. Zeno himself said the chrollo wasnt fighting to kill, you can hate it all you want its canon that chrollo was putting on a performance and not fighting seriously. >He was so defeated by them he never even escaped the net the Zoldycks castIf chrollo was dead set on avoiding the zoldycks he definitely could. He had already anticipated the 10 tons would hire the zoldyck famliy which is why he sent illumi beforehand. He arranged uvos requim knowing most likely another member of the zoldck senpai would be there. The whole situation was set up by chrollo so he can fight zeno and silva, try and steal their hatsus, and at the end of the day hes in no real danger since the 10 dons are gonna die. It was all a show.
>>289025958Silent Majority is probably conjuration so Oito is a conjurer

Would Chrollo steal Kurapika’s instant kill chain ability if he knew it only works on the spiders? Would the chain still count former spiders to begin with?
>>289026218
>>289026204>>289025795>>289025515Not to get in the way of your pissing match, but I really like how Togashi stages power. It's most evident during the election arc. He conveniently makes sure 'top-tier' power characters don't cross each-other, like when Hisoka is rating people he never comes across Bisky, Ging, or Pariston. It keeps things ambiguous about who is actually 'stronger'. And when two characters do fight, there's always an argument about the conditions in the end.

>>289026204This is baffling to me. Saying the whole tower assault was just a setup to steal two abilities he knows almost nothing about is wild. Thats the most convoluted plan I've ever heard. It makes no senseThe stealing strategy was to buy time, and he abandoned that plan once he realized he had no chance if taking their abilities as he was BEING KILLED. then to imply Chrollo could have escaped at any time just takes the cake. Like Chrollo is going to escape the person Netero brought with him to capture Meruem. Stop glazing Chrollo so hard dear lord
>>289025722based
>>289026299Chrollo wouldn't say no to the ability, but he wouldn't have many uses for it.There's also the bigger problem that Chrollo can't pay the price for it, since he doesn't have a Judgement Chain around his heart.The chain would be ease to break or not work at all.
>>289026299Ironically, I think that Kurapika's is one of the abilities that Chrollo would have the least interest in. He's mostly interested investigating abilities that have strange limits or rules, so he can learn more about himself by comparing differences, but Kurapika's abilities don't really leave a lot to investigate. He's just an angry, angsty kid with a grudge, and this simple, straight-forward nature is written all over his powers. Heck, as shown recently with his speculations of how his dowsing chain gathers information, and when Emperor Time does or doesn't deactivate, Kurapika doesn't really even understand his abilities/himself that well. Could you imagine if Kurapika had encountered a disguised Chrollo, and Chrollo did his whole interview thing like he did with Neon? Kurapika would get through explaining maybe three chains before Chrollo stopped him and said "Okay kid, I get it. You DON'T LIKE the Phantom Troupe."
>>289024403>What determines whether or not an ability requires a level-up to steal?more nen the ability use = harder to steal
>>289025958Oito is a specialist

>>289026628it was pretty fucked up of kurapika to kill her
>>289026125Tse agrees
>>289026412>>Pounzu>well written
>>289026495>The stealing strategy was to buy time, and he abandoned that plan once he realized he had no chance if taking their abilities as he was BEING KILLED.stealing their hatsus was chrollos intention from the very start of the fight. As much as you wanna rage about it its canon that chrollo was never fighting to kill.>then to imply Chrollo could have escaped at any time just takes the cake. Like Chrollo is going to escape the person Netero brought with him to capture Meruem. Stop glazing Chrollo so hard dear lordI never said anything about chrollo escaping mid fight. Its obvious that once the fight started he couldnt back out. What im saying is that chrollo knew that likely the zoldycks were gonna show up beforehand (why he hired illumi before hand), and if he really wanted to he could have avoided fighting zeno and silva entirely. This is the same dude who dodged hisoka for six months and only finally fought him when he wanted. The fight between chrollo and the 2 zoldycks happened cuz chrollo wanted to fight them, so he can try and steal their powers. Chrollo knew there was no real risk to his life cuz he had already hired illumi before the fight even started. The entire fight was a performance he wasn't fighting seriously, as zeno said. You can be baffled about it as much as you want its still canon
>>289022659when will she go back to training with Tserrie?
>>289026529Somewhat related, two of the abilities that would fit the most for Chrollo to steal would be Hakoware and Hotel Rafflesia.The best I can think for him to steal would be Doppelganger.
>>289026521>>289026529Chrollo basically implied he couldn’t beat Hisoka again without more power. If the plan to take the Kakin artifacts doesn’t work out he might try to take Kurapika’s eyes if he finds him. Worst case if he can’t do it and he gets cornered/captured Chrollo can give up his pride and beg him for the chance to get this ability. He would have to pay the price and it might be his life but it’s possible.
>>289026640If anyone killed her, the biggest suspect would be Hisoka.Hisoka has been depicted in art and text as the "Shinigami" numerous times throughout the series.When we get the news that Neon died, Shizuku compares Chrollo's book to the Death Note. And who kills the people with the name on the Death Note? The Shinigami.
>>289026690>Chrollo basically implied he couldn’t beat Hisoka again without more powernah. he just wants a higher of succeeding. he has a decent chance to kill The Clown even without cheating or preparing by taking abilities from his friends. maybe even 50:50.
>>289026495>Saying the whole tower assault was just a setup to steal two abilities he knows almost nothing about is wild. Thats the most convoluted plan I've ever heard. It makes no sensethe entire assault wasnt just for the abilities, it was in memory of uvogin. Chrollo just anticipated the zoldycks would be there and used it as a opportunity to try and steal their hatsus.
>>289026723>he just wants a higher of succeedinga higher chance*
>>289026690because of people being invested in shit-flinging clown vs chrollo battles, they don't really want to look at the scenario from a rational perspective as chrollo himself does.hisoka was an absolute monster in that fight, hurling a mass number of bodies like he's prime sauron in the war of the last alliance.chrollo can't compete with that in a direct fight, he's got to gain some kind of a hax edge.
>>289026723With these odds maybe he can actually try and beat Hisoka fair and square for once. I know he won’t do it though because he’s a filthy cheater.
>>289026776why would he risk it? he doesn't enjoy fighting
you think we'll see silent majority this week?
>>289026705On the other hand no one benefited more than Kurapika. He has risen to family boss and he knocked out the one skill that he knows Chrollo definitely has, which can thwart any plan he might have for taking down Chrollo.
Kurapika could just drain Hisoka's Aura and steal his Bungee Gum and win the fight without having to do this stupid phantom thief larp
What if Silent Majority is Kurapika's split personality?
>>289026752It's not only that Hisoka showed tremendous feats in that fight.Chrollo's admitted best strategy for dealing with Hisoka is completely gone:- Black Voice is gone. He can't threat Hisoka in close quarters combat with the possibility of a one-shot like before;- Gallery Fake is gone;- Order Stamp is completely useless without Gallery Fake. Chrollo won't have any puppets around to manipulate;- Sun and Moon's best use is gone without the two manipulation abilities and the puppet production;Chrollo can't overwhelm or distract Hisoka with numbers, and he can't go for close combats either. That's why he's saying very explicitly that he may die if he faces Hisoka in his current state (which his stans are refusing to listen).
>>289026814can Kurapika use his chains if he has the dolphin activated?

>>289026850i'm sure he's still got a pretty solid bag of tricks left but it would be far from a sure thing.chrollo doesn't care if he dies but he wants to take hisoka out with him.he's likely already designated a "successor" in case he dies.
>>289026908Thanks a lot!
>>289026790The point is he's weak.

What if Machi was just Kastro's nen after death
>>289026925he is physically weaker than Hisoka but he is quite the formidable opponent surviving Zeno and Silva and Hisoka lusting after fighting him
>>289026943chrollo being cringe is why he's chrollo
What if Machi train her?
>>289026955what a jew
>>289026850im a chrollo stan, hes my fav character. I cant wait for hisoka to kill him, but only before he destroys chrollo emotionally. Chrollo sacrificed everything for the spider its all he has, and hisoka is gonna take it all away to break chrollos facade. The tragedy of chrollos character is what makes him compelling to me so i want hisoka to kill him in the most tragic and cruel way possible.
>>289026919>he's likely already designated a "successor" in case he dies.Let me guess. The successor is Kurapika.
>>289026970actually you could have the double tragedy of someone else getting to kill him before hisoka does (or chrollo killing himself with some suicide ability).i need more sad clown faces
>>289026850Funny that Chrollo is literally the only person in the group who thinks the group will keep going if he dies.
>>289026970Chrollo can't just be a tragic character, right?Something satisfying must happen in his character arc before that.Will he be able to steal the treasures and throw a wrench in the Succession War?Will he stop one of the villainous princes?What will he do before dying? Because there's literally no way he survives this arc.
>>289026961I'm not sure she could handle it
>>289027014franklin think so too
>>289025151Holy fuck my entire sides
>>289027014There's a couple of others. Franklin, Feitan I think. Shizuku. The others are pretty soft by comparison, they're mainly around because of Chrollo.
>>289019294Togashi just subscribes to the Toriyama school of volume covers.Volume covers should be indicative of the overall work and what point those are at. Chapter covers should be striking within the confines of a magazine, to draw a potential reader's eye to the work. Pic related is a good example, the chapter cover on the bottom right is pretty iconic and reflective of the arc it is used in. Wanna know what the volume cover was? The image directly above it.
Will this arc just be Togashi jacking himself off to pages of text and nen or will we get interesting themes, messages, emotional depth, philosophical nods, etc?
420 Confirmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQSNr-jBG5A
>>289027014There's a clear intentional irony here from Togashi's part.Chrollo believes he's disposable, and takes so much pride in this so called Spider that could keep going without its head.We've seen enough from the Troupe to come to the obvious conclusion that this is simply not true.Back in Yorkshin he thought Kurapika's "weakness" were his friends, but maybe before dying he'll realize they were his strength (and he theirs) all along.
Did Kurapika lie about the time limit?
>>289027026She have honey-lemon refresher. Ponzu can keep up.
>>289027079you guys cried about the longhi chapter too it's literally the first chapter of the batch
What would be the minimum caliber required to maim/kill the average nen user, assuming the gunman isn't a nen user?It says that 9mm doesn't do much against nen users, but would 5.56 do anything? I feel like 7.62 would be capable of severely injuring one, at least. It would be pretty bullshit if even weak nen users didn't have to worry about rifle rounds.
>>289027094Fuck I really don't want Chrollo to die :c
>>289027081>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=peExzeeffJk
>>289026850>MY GENIUS DESIGN OF THE SPIDERSits literally just a couple of friends from the junk pit, a mummy guy, and some opportunistic freeloadersand the mummy guy carries the whole team
>>289026659>>289026724Jesus Christ this is what TikTok and fight fag are doing to this generation. Its honestly like im taking crazy pillsChrollo was there to STEAL from the auction. His fight with the Zoldycks was no more life and death just because he was trying to steal their abilities. Ontologically it doesn't make a difference. You can just as easily say he survived because he only tried to steal their abilitiesIts like somehow you see Chrollo crawl out of the rubble and think "ah yes he was doing great"I will never ever accept "he was trying to steal their abilities" as some sort of cope that he wasn't trying his absolute hardest. Claiming that the cemetery building fight was all part of Chrollo last master plan to trap the Zoldycks is 100% f8ght fag historical revisionism
>>289027146when you put it like that...
>>289027146there could be post mortem nen involved chrollo really wants to level up before fighting hisoka
>>289027094Chrollo thinks he has something that will keep the spiders going, and in juxtaposition to the succession war I want to believe him
>>289026812>>289026705Neon received a nen exorcism and Kurapika got a fortune from her before going on the boat.
>>289027094this is the kind of classic shonen story telling that togashi loves the most, despite have a reputation for being subversive. But chrollo can only realize this when hes about to die, to make it as tragic as possible. He can only realize this once hisoka kills them all and he looses everything
god i fucking hate the power cleaners
>>289027094Chrollo was right. Kurapika may have been able to take half the spiders. Maybe even get Chrollo himself. But Kurapika lost the moment he gave him up in exchange for his friends. This was his error. His best chance was to settle things here and now and he gave all that up because of simple…compassion…and…friendship…Pathetic…
>>289027211chrollo is mentally disturbed and his "genius design" is cope so that he won't feel as terrible about losing comrades, because of his "rules".truth is he's constantly looking to die in their place and every other spider is acknowledging how badly he's taking the deaths of shalnark and kortopi (especially since they were on his shoulders).
>>289027116>>289027211We can go even further and extrapolate that this whole "members are disposable/ can be replaced" philosophy was a coping mechanism from Chrollo's part.Since the Sarada incident, he has a heavily repressed trauma about the pain of losing his friends, so he copes that their deaths are no big deal, he can just find others.But we've also seen more than enough from the Spiders to know this is pure bullshit.Back in the hideout Chrollo kept a straight face as he said Uvo could be dead, but once he got confirmation from Neon's fortune, he broke his façade and started crying.In the Yorkshin arc they also said Shalnark could be "easily replaced", but now we've seen Shal's death fucking destroyed him.There's are clear contradictions and repressed emotions in Chrollo's character.
>>289027151ok now its clear to me your just trolling lol. you dont even engage with my points. Silva said Chrollo wasnt fighting serious. Chrollo could have avoided the fight in its entirety, if he just avoided zeno and silva for a lil bit illumi would have killed the 10 dons and the fight wouldnt happen. Instead chrollo literally waited on stage for them. Chrollo is a actor. He went out of his way to fight the 2 zoldycks, cuz he wanted to try and steal their powers and he knew they wouldnt kill him (cuz he hired illumi). You can call me all the names you want, dosnt change that this is all canon information lol. Heres the page. I guess chrollos act tricked you. Or, since your prob trolling, your act tricked me
>>289027287Yorkshin Chrollo be like:>"Oh the chain user cares about his friends, WHAT A LOSER LOL"
>>289027110There's really no reason that a .22 couldn't kill a nen user, provided that gun is being shot by a nen user, because Shu exists.If you used Shu + In, you'd probably be able to take out most nen users because they wouldn't take the threat seriously.
>>289027026Killua told Gonzu about her hidden abs technique.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FANzhC5ejpw
>>289027329Also Chrollo:>"WAAAHHHH SHALNARK IS DEAD I MUST DESTROY EVERYTHING!!"
>>289027287he's a broken man since sarada's death and his idea to fix all that was to place the spider above any individual so he wouldn't feel as terrible about loss.it's worked to a degree but each dead spider is cracking down on his sanity, making him even more delusional.
>>289027344>>289027329Why emo act like this?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeUE254SQ2s
>>289027319HOW COULD CHROLLO AVOID THE FIGHT ENTIRELY IF HE WAS TRYING TO STEAL FROM THE AUCTION IN THE BUILDING THE ZOLDYCKS WERE IN ?????
>>289027110They don’t seem resistant to bullets unless they have an ability catered to specifically negate them. Against a weak-mid nen opponent a 9mm is fine. They are not going to be especially skilled at defending against being turned into swish cheese.
>>289027095I think he was for real, Genthru's countdown ability was probably strengthened by the timer so it makes senseThere's Cheetu's ability involving a timer, Chrollo's book stealing having a time restriction, probably more examples
>>289027333I think it would depend on Emission skill. Even with a short travel time, I feel like bullets hemorrhage Nen quickly, unless the shooter is decently trained in Emission. That's why so few Nen-users carry firearms. Kurapika is specifically using one cause he's interacting with a lot of civilians and non nen-users. That gun is to keep them in line, not the Royal Guards and the like. And/or, he can activate Emperor Time if he has to shoot a Nen-user, maximizing his ability to maintain the Nen he Emits within the bullets.
>>289027329He only said it was a weakness he could exploit, which is ironic because it's also one shared by the spiders who care about him (and himself who cares about the spiders) but he couldn't realize it since he's autistic
>>289027376Because he had already hired Illumi to kill the dons you RETARD
>>289027376calm down idiot. Maybe you should just reread the arc if yorknew is confusing you this damn much. ive already explained it 5 times over
>>289027095To deceive your enemy
>>289027329In hindsight this scene is pretty fucking messed up for a child to witness>live in what is essentially a huge favela for "undesirables">one of your best friends goes missing >turns out she's been kidnapped by human traffickers because no one gives a shit about the wellbeing of the people who live in Meteor City>desperately look around for her, only to find a bag containing her chopped up body (God knows what else they did before killing her)
Silva and Zeno surely knew the job was a sham since even Maha was involved with the other job on the dons. Old codger has never failed to kill a target other than Netero.
>>289026955wtf whats chrollo rationale
>>289027287I really love how much love and care togashi puts into all the villains in hxh. They are all super super compelling and well done. Even the 4th prince and he hasnt even really gotten started yet.
>>289027553he also went looking for more of that type of material on the web to find the particular video involving his friend.it's clearly a reference to sensui and the "black chapter" and how it messed him up mentally to the point where he created other personalities to cope.togashi just couldn't ever go all the way with that in a manga like yyh, so he continues it with chrollo
>>289027571Probably referring to thishttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel_of_Judas
>>289027524THIS DOESN'T STOP THE ZOLDYCKS WE LITTERALLY SEETHE ZOLDYCKS KEEP HUNTING HIMBECAUSE THEYKNOWHE IS TRYING TOSTEAL FROMTHEAUCTION WHAT YOU ARE SUGGESTING IS THAT CHROLLO JUST STOPS DOING EVERYTHING AND RUN OUT OF TOWN ITSSTUPID
>>289027066still shitty on hxh and on DB imo, just a waste of insane chapter colors since those will be on B&W and forgotten (ie not on ur table / at libray)it should be the opposite
I like how leading up to the reveal that Halkenburg and Benjamin are full blood brothers, Togashi at times draws thier faces almost 1:1. Now of course, they both share thier mother's features like her wide nose which explains it. But Tse supposedly is also her child and he doesn't resemble either Ben or Halk. We know his paternal lineage is questionable but what if he is not related to any of them?
>>289027453The time limit restriction would have been probably been easier to consider if the source of the ritual was actual people instead of some enchanted jar.I suppose just like Ging was able to rig the tape recorder before Yorkshin, people are able to program other items. I hate to admit I never put much thought into how the ritual items were created or work and kind of dismissed it because so many possibilities
>>289027593>he also went looking for more of that type of material on the web to find the particular video involving his friendEven more psychological trauma by exposing yourself to thousands of videos like that, then having to watch the specific one that involved your friend and trying to figure out who's responsible because once again, no one cares about meteor city's citizens so there's no law stopping kidnappers from taking people and using them for shit like Kakin's "parties"
>>289027476It would certainly be emission, but I don't see that as an issue. Every should really be training enhancement, emission, and transmuation to at least a basic level, and the ones that don't only have themselves to blame.
>>289027574Villians are his favorite to write. He enjoys exploring thier psychology and what makes them do what they do even if the characters themselves like Chrollo can't explain thier actions
>>289027665Tse looks a lot like Netero to me. Same downturned eyes, narrow-ish face, similar nose.
>>289027633most christians don't believe on it though
It's weird the Phantom Troupe managed to infiltrate the Yorknew auction as part of the organisation like it was nothing, but didn't try to do the same on the Black Whale as Kakin personnel or bodyguards in order to access the upper tiers instead of being all on tier 5.
>>289027729Kakin royalty probably has better vetting standards for their bodyguards
>>289027748This, probably the difference between hacking a random site/user vs hacking a gov
Benjamin is dying from a poison in 24 hours and we still haven't seen his two (2) GSB's powers btw
>>289027748>>289027761Isn't there also the risk that someone would recognize them if they took those positions?
>>289027779Killing someone major off in a anti-climatic way without ever showing their powers seems like something Togashi would do
I completely forgot that Chrollo was using a stolen ability to search for his 'ideal partner', and was failing because that 'partner' was out of range. It's probably Kurapika.
>>289027079Go reread the other big arcs.>>289027382Go reread this arc.
>>289027809Explain how Kurapika's ability are supposed to be perfect against Hisoka.I do think it will be someone we've seen before for narrative purposes, but I can't figure out who yet.
>>289027804when did this happen?
>>289027712He says it started for him when he was forced to continue drawing YYH even though he felt like the protagonist's character arc was complete. So he started directing his attention towards writing the villains instead, like Toguro, Sensui and Mukuro.
>>289027729I mean arguably the Nobunaga gang is doing the same thing but just more officially
>>289027843That specific thing hasn't happened yet, but Togashi is known for his subversive arc endings and plenty of jobbers and minor characters have been killed after only briefly using or explaining their abilities. It's not a stretch for him to do both of those things at once, especially in an arc like this with so many characters.
>>289027839I didn't say they'd be useful against Hisoka, I just said he would be Chrollo's "ideal partner". Kurapika wants to end the Succession War. Chrollo has a means to do that, by stealing/destroying Kakin's Three Sacred Treasures, which is what he originally wanted to do before Hisoka started teabagging the Spiders. They have a mutual reason to cooperate here, even if they're belligerent to each other.Though Chrollo probably believes that his "ideal partner" is Hisoka, because of their obsessions with each other. I'd laugh if neither knows the other is on-board until Kurapika opens the door to 1014 and meets Chrollo face to face.
It's also weird that Chrollo wears the same clothes and doesn't try to conceal his identity after what happened in Heaven Arena. After killing all those random people in the audience and exploding the arena he should be considered a mass murderer or terrorist but it's like nothing happened.
>>289027877He will not, he already gave some random jobber prince power explanation before he died (sale sale)he won't give a prince two GSB's and not explain any of them. comon man
>>289027882He's among other mass murderers in the ship so they probably don't care that much.
>>289027882He didn't actually kill anyone at Heavens Arena. The panic started when he manipulated several audience members into attacking Hisoka, who murdered them in response. After that he copied people and sent the copies after Hisoka, which the announcer saw as audience members rioting and attacking Hisoka.
>>289027729>>289027748What if Kakin royal hire Phantom Troupe as mercenary before Yorkcity arc?
>>289027649It's just basic composition ideas.A volume cover is what's on store shelves. A chapter cover is accompanied by about 15~20 pages of manga immediately following it.
>>289027729
>>289027907>He didn't actually kill anyone at Heavens Aren-ACK
>>289027882doppelganger exist
>>289027924>A volume cover is what's on store shelvesThat's the idea here, the dragon ball chapter color is more hooking (Though I admit the volume cover is also cool desu)for HxH the chapters covers would hook me 100% more than the boring ass covers he done (if I didn't know about hxh)
>>289027930Throwing people at Hisoka isn't killing them. Even the obvious answer you could've given, detonating the judge with the Sun and the Moon, only happened after Hisoka slit his throat.
>>289027809This is one of the better cliffhangers in the arc currently "How will Kuroro reach his goal??" though he'll probably just teleport upstairs or something
>>289027927Hisoka pranking her with his hack off limb
>>289027882If you saw a troupe member walking down the street, would you have the balls to confront him or call the police?
>>289027907What the fuck he personality killed 3 people that we know of
>>289019294How will the next Spider vol cover look like?
Why are spiderfags so disingenuous about literally everything the troupe does?
>>289026680Hanzo's hatsu would be pretty useful as well
>>289027986Imagine if it's that dumb tiger zodiac. We don't know how he works, only that he's strong. What if he's the true master of that tiger bite thing that ripped Hisoka's arms off? I just think it'd be fun. He's got a neat design.
>>289028009Its powerscalers being unable to accept the spiders are kinda mid and evil
>>289027713I wouldn't place so much on the eyes because I think Zeno has that too. But it is curious that so far every relation to Netero has a ponytail
>>289028013He's stuck guarding Beyond
>>289027633>chrollo is an altfagKEK, I guess hisoka isn't a traitor to the troupe then
>>289027729>>289027748>>289027761>>289027799The Troupe used to be anonymous. Prior to Yorknew, no one knew their names or faces. But after the troupe used the fake dead bodies plan to fool the mafia into thinking they were dead, the mafia took images of their corpses and obtained their identities and spread that info all over the internet. Now everyone knows the Troupe members' identities so they can't inflitrate anywhere.
>>289027996I'd have trouble even walking past them
>>289027882He was already a major criminal prior to Heaven's Arena. Nothing has changed.
>>289027907He killed hundreds of people, moron. Any nen user can tell what really happened.
>>289028091>previous 4th and 8th lost to Kurta's strongest unnamed warriorsTattoo branded as death
>>289028246>>289028246It's heavily implied Hisoka killed the last number #4, while we know Silva killed the last #8.
>>289028008Killua's brother holding flower resemble Shizuku color of her sweater

Why should I read this potential man arc hunterfags? Especially when Togashi can barley get off the toilet to shit out chapters?
>>289028276Possibility could've happen without Troupe knowing
>>289028277it's uvo's flower because he replaced his spot
>>289028008The cutest little fang on Michi
>>289028081One more reason they could at least try to be lowkey like they did in Yorknew when Nobunaga and Machi were wanted on the Hunter Association website instead of wearing their default clothes. Plus their Yorknew outfits looked better imo. Togashi's been lazy for not doing that.It's like the Troupe was smarter back in Yorknew.
