>>289042610What if Botan replace Genkai and use a war scythe in the Dark Tournament and Black Chapter?
Total clown supremacy btw
Shoot would win against uvo and that's just a fact. People are unable to accurately predict these matchups because of personal like or dislike, but that's not my problem.
>>289042599It could be but considering what Killua had to go through to make his aura into electricity.... you know.... you'd probably have to give yourself ebola like 20 times... and metaphorically when you have ebola you are already kinda transmuting your aura into ebola
Am I wrong if I'm thinking Kurapika's healing chain isn't some super advanced ability that is out of consistency for him to learn as quickly as he did? It's not like it does anything nearly as intricate as any of the other healing abilities in the series.
>>289042901It's super busted. Not even gon being an enhancer can heal that fast
>>289042721The Tokyo ghoul guy nailed hisoka so fucking hard
>>289042901red eyes are OP proven by its heavy Restriction
But seriously pitou takes like 30 minutes to fix komugi but kurapika heals a broken arm in seconds?
>>289042901I don't think its unprecedented, but considering what angels breath and cammy's cat need to do to heal, its strange
>>289043018Kurapika is a 1 in a billion geniusArguably the greatest nen user to exist
>>289043018>cut open stomach and organ damage vs broken armHmmm...
>>289042356Machi will kill Hisoka
>>289043096The entire troupe will get effortlessly slaughtered by Hisoka, and then Gon will get killed too while trying to regain his nen and that's Ending C
>>289043092Come on its not like a broken arm won't have nervous and blood vesels damaged. He healed it completely in an instant that's bullshit no other nen user has a feat like that
>>289043096Get on with it already, woman
>>289043018>But seriously pitou takes like 30 minutes to fix komugi but kurapika heals a broken arm in seconds?Dr. Blythe is complete (re)generation of new tissue and organs on top of life support of the dead with the drawback of being in quasi-Zetsu and the time it takes. Kurapika mends a broken arm (that the human body can do naturally by itself over time) with the sacrifice of Kurapika's life clock due to ET active during it.
>>289042901It's overpowered not because it's an overpowered ability itself, but because it's one of his many asspull abilities that he developed in under a year with minimal conditions/restrictions that are simply better than similar equivalents. Similar healing abilities, like Pitou's, are very slow. Other one's like Machi's stitches tie into the character's ability theme (threads). Kurapika has no consistent theme because his 'chains' do anything the plot wants him to. Chain jail makes sense as an ability. The spinning chain to block bullets works too. The chain over his own heart is a good condition as well. Everything else is just stupid bullshit that goes beyond what is believable for someone who trained by touching chains for hours.
>>289043140Entirely different ballgame to actual surgery. Illumi got his arm broken, Gon got his arm broken multiple times, they recovered eventually.
>>289042969>>289043142Machi pov
>>289042533rubber gum leaking out of spats
>>289043147Kurapika's power level was slowly walked back to his current level Even togashi felt he did way too much in the uvo fight, because he never reached that peak ever again and is now deathly terrified of small caliber pistols
>>289043018Yes I've bought this up before with Michi fixing Hisokas arms in seconds but it took Pitou long enough to fix Meruems arm that knov was able to pull off an entire mission placing portals all over the palace
>>289043458the pistol thing is just Togashi's recent autism fixation. He read about guns in a magazine somewhere and now needs to bring up bullet calibers randomly throughout the arc.
>4th prince knows about the secret passage>he fled there when the martial law was called>the phantom troupe is currently there moving upThey are gonna meat and link up arent they. We might even get Kurta lore.
>>289043565also cover....
>>289043526Kurapika was very physical during the uvo fight and then simply never again, ever. This is a conscious change. Kurapika works better as a brainy character so that's what he became. He shouldn't do both. Ergo red eyes physical boosts were downplayed, as was his primacy in martial arts.
>>289043526it's an easy way to separate the amateur nen users (which there are many of in this arc) from the top tier users
>>289043630Laddio Bolocko - Call Me Jesus
Hints?
>>289043565>>289043630He's so overpowered that I'm worried his inevitable defeat will be from a lame asspull
>>289042440It also looks shit honestly
>>289043461Efficiency and hours of practice/experience.Machi has spent years if not 2 decades, using and perfecting her power. Pitou used Dr. Blythe on Kite, the fat bastard, Meruem, and Komugi with only 2 months old and evolving each time she used it to the point of healing her own arm in apparently a couple of minutes, imagine the evolution but with one year of constant practice and refinement.It's very obvious to say, but RG were definitely monsters of talent.
>>289043940Kurapika has like 2 months of experience as well
When will Yusuke appear?
>>289044011already did
>>289043978Kurapika didn't have to maintain a 2km En radar and hundreds of puppets across an entire country all day long during those 2 months.
new canon names just dropped
>>289044097True he only had to face against an elite nen user who eats bazookas for breakfast and come out unscathed on his second fight
>>289044123>wrongLonghis beyond theory is confirmed to be incorrect
>>289044123
>>289044156
Yuta could beat Chrollo pretty easily
spoilers when
>>289044181
These new Togashi sketches kind of look like a lot of axebait dark seinen art . I say this as someone who reads a lot of raw manga
>>289044201
>>289044137Yeah... Is this supposed to be equivalent to what I mentioned or what?
>>289044223
>>289044223>>289044156Wang looks like a chad evolution of Kaizer here
>>289043018This isn’t that farfetched.Kurapika the genius mastered his technique with training, luck, hard work, and his unique bloodline to heal any injuries instantly. This took time AND perseverance.Pitou the Ant doesn’t train. Doesn’t have unique powers. Isn’t a genius. Uses up all their time serving a ruthless and needy king. Barely had time to practice their surgery using a single Kite body because they were only born for like a week. 30 minutes should have been 30 days.
>>289044244That kurapika has more talent than the royal guards
>>289044156Genuinely the most mysterious nigga in the whole arc. WHAT IS HIS PLAN
>>289044267antfags btfo
>>289042356Based
>>289043018There is probably some retarded, unstated sacrifice like a year of his life or something.
I think emperor time will fuck up kuarpaika badly in this arc, but Togashi doesn’t kill his main MCs so he’ll be fine in the end
>>289044395Kurapika is going to seriously need to rework his abilities if he wants to survive in DC. Beyond has the right idea with whats needed but obviously he been planning for decades.
>>289044267>it's a kurapika fag all alongYeah sister, you should talk to the killua fujos instead to see who can say the most stupid thing in these threads.
>>289044430I don’t think kuarpaika is going to be in the DC arc. I think he’ll be in a Gon like coma and Leorio will have to fetch the longevity rice Ging talked about
>I used my enhancement to enhance my affinity for specialization
>>289044123>"togashi we need some subtle foreshadowing that hints that the beyond theories are all wrong">"...wrong you say?"
>I used my enhancement to enhace my affinity for rape
>>289044595That's some JJK>healing my burnt out CTenergy
>>289044430Leorio seems pretty useful for the expedition. Kurapika+Leorio linkup with Ging where he guides and helps them would be cool to see. >>289044465Would be a cool end to Kurapikas story if he finds the original place where the kurtas are from in DC and decides to stay there with his people. After all the suffering he been through he can finally rest with his kin.
>>289044595He just wished for more wishes
>>289044458Im not saying it as a good thing. It's fucking bullshit how op kurapika is(or was)
>>289044395Kurapika doesn’t know this but he has a friend that can just wish him and his lifespan back to life anytime he wants with no downsides. It literally doesn’t matter.
Shouldnt Kurapika have done the same thing Chrollo did with the upgrades to his copy ability but instead of stealing treasure its for every eye he gets back from his brethren.
>>289044201Sex with Oit
I wonder how many of the ppl posting OP pic are genuine hisofriends and how many just like the idea of pushing a generated image into the bantz (this includes the person who had it generated)
>>289044729Kurapika should eat the eyes like itadori
>>289044011Soonish
>I want to use a conjuring ability, but my affinity is in manipulation.>I shall now place a resrtriction on myself to never use an ability that compliments my affinity, boosting the power of my conjuration.
>>289044766I just think it's a funny image
>>289044123>Beyond's daughter can't possibly be this cute!
This guy is def neteros son right? He isnt trying to kill wobble at all. Just gaining intel on kurapika. He also was touched by Oito wanting to protect her family member meaning he isnt that loyal to Benjamin like the others are. Seems likes hes still on the fence on what to do.
>>289044123Is there a new Theta?
>>289044836Barely anyone important has died during the succession while Morena’s team is farming kills. I’m just waiting until we are finally done with the nen training so everyone can finally do something.
>>289042356Chrollo and Hisoka btw
>>289044218They would fit in a dark fantasy/horror adjacent series. The way HxH is written, it can be literally anything Togashi decides at that particular point
>>289044654>Would be a cool end to Kurapikas story if he finds the original place where the kurtas are from in DC and decides to stay there with his people.Kurta's from DC are absolutely feral animals. Like legit demons.Kurapika is probably from some Kurta tribe who inbreed heavily with humans, but DC Kurtas are literal crazy beasts.
>>289044676>Nanika can you kill the troupe, retrieve The Kurta eyes, kill the hei-Ku, kill Tserriendich, and teleport woble/Oito to somewhere safe in the main land >mmkay HUNTERXHUNTER IS DONE! THANKS FOR READING
>>289044395Netero lived to like 120 and probably could've lasted a few more decades if he didn't want to so badly die in a blaze of glory so a few decades of Kurapika's lifespan ain't too bad. That of course is leaving out the idea of him eating some plant from the DC that will make him immortal or something.
>>289045018
>>289045047Little slut
Is transfiguration Manipulation conjuration or transmutation?
>>289045040True. For all we know Kurapika would’ve lived to 120 normally, and after using emperor time at the end of this arc will live to 55. That’s still a good life, and it doesn’t affect the story. .Who cares if Kurapika only lives to age 55? It’s not like we’ll ever get to see that. .Which is why Togashi HAS to make emperor times negative qualities affect the story. .My guess is Kurapika will pas out again during emperors time for an even longer time, will have to spam use it multiple times, and will literally be on his death bed by the end of the arc
>>289045100My only critique for emperor time would’ve been for Togashi to show visual changes in Kurapika as he uses it to show how much life he has left. I
>>289045133Knowing when hes gonna naturally die would be a huge upside and I doubt thats even possible to do with nen. Total lost counter would be fine I guess. The dolphin probably knows. It can talk right.
>>289045018What the hell was Togashi thinking with this thing? My cope headcanon is that it couldn't actually do most of that and Illumi is just overestimating it.
>>289045169>Knowing when hes gonna naturally die would be a huge upside and I doubt thats even possible to do with nenActually that’s a pretty good counter answer. If Kurapika knew how much time he had left he could easily plan his usage to drastic long term benefit.
>>289045066>transfigurationWhat kind?
>>289045193I’m not sure if that anon is still here but there was some theorist who thought Nanika price for Killua’s wishes was happening in the dark continent instead of the known continent x and when the current team goes to the gatekeepers , the gatekeepers will bring it up
>>289045193Togashi fell for the Shonen Disney juice.>Killua won’t abuse wishes, and his sister loves him, therefore when he does wish for something good (which is comepltely ambiguous: killing the troupe is a good thing), he gets a free wish
>>289044931Itsuki looks like Machi if she were boy, I suppose that makes Sensui Hisoka
>>289045063:(
>>289044595This isn't any dumber than a specialist using their specialist ability to boost their enhancement
soka
>>289045218Dark Continent is full of creatures that can kill you if you so much as look at them or be in their general area. But I think most of what we hear about DC is largely rumor. None of it is really confirmed.
Everyone in this thread coping about Kurapika's "inconsistent" power level is going to look like an idiot whenif we get to the climactic showdown between Kurapika and Tserri/Chrollo, that tears the Black Whale apart. If you thought Adult Gon was something, just WAIT till you see ADULT KURAPIKA.

>>289042566
>>289045549
>>289045549kill morena, fuck theta, marry bork. i like that bork is responsible and competent without being a cunt. and she's cute, too. theta would get on my nerves pretty fast. morena could be a good lay but she probably has crabs and stuff
>>289045549Marry: Bork (Kissless virgin)Fuck: Theta (Clarice Sterling)Kill: Morena (Nihilist she-devil whose fucked hundreds)
>>289045549Marry Bork. Most conventionally attractive.Fuck Theta.Kill Morena. I don’t fuck or marry mentally ill std ridden whores
>>289045549Kill Morena. Too dangerous.Fuck Borksen. She's boring. I think I would get bored of seeing her in the long term.Marry Theta. She seems like a real Ride or Die type.
>>289044011Yuuske is Ging and Kuwbara is Knuckle.
>>289045750Ironically the closest Yusuke and Kuwabara dynamic I got in the entire series was between Babymina and Furykov
nen is completely unbalanced despite being hyped up as a balanced system of conditions and tradeoffs. certain characters are just favored more, don't have to follow any conditions, or demonstrate abilities that could reasonably kill everyone around them in a flash.knuckle's APR takes a long time to actually trigger, yet kurapika's steal chain forces zetsu instantlycammy literally has "if you kill me i win" power to just revive herself and insta-kill you without having to explain shitzeno has to puppeteer his purple dragon to make it chase the opponent and all it does is grab you, yet halkenburg can fire a soul-seeking arrow that doesn't miss and instantly defeats anyone it hits
>everyone is too much of a coward to do anything but kill morena
>>289044595Zero times zero is still zero
>>289045893Touching her gives you STDS, it’s a major risk to even interact with her
>>289045549Marry and fuck BorkTheta can transform into a nen beast or whateverKill Morena
>>289045549Id probably marry Morena, her views on sex are probably as cynical as mine and honestly I'm pretty edgy we will rack up thousands of kills Theta would kill me so I have to kill herd fuck Bork but let's be real it would be a disaster
>>289045881Plaiyng devil's advocate..Steal Chain has to pierce the body, the typical condition for insta-win Manipulation abilities. It should be possible to guard against it if you're strong. Knuckle wouldn't have had to use APR at all against Vincent; he could've just punched him out. Steal Chain also has risks like being stuck in Emperor Time until the ability is used.Cammy has to be in zetsu. This is a hallmark of counter types so it won't work on experienced enemies. She seems too stupid to deploy it strategically.Zeno can use his dragons much more freely than Halkenburg can use his arrows. Also it probably can miss or he wouldn't have had to be so careful when he was aiming it at Balsamilco. It probably fails if it hits fake bodies like Morel's smoke clones too.
>>289045047>want to impregnate Alluka>she's a boyGoddamn newhalf. I should ask Killua to make her able to get knocked up.
>>289045616>>289045893How they survive in Corpse Party
Can't wait for Hisoka to brutally murder chrollo.
>>289045549fuck marry kill between sarahelwhy does her middle form remind me of naruto
I think Morena is really cute and attractive despite all of her crimes. I'd want her to win honestly if it wasn't for my glorious King Tsrreindich
>>289045549ThetaThetaTheta
>>289045893Bork and Theta are decent people, especially Theta, and it would be mean to kill either.
Why are all of the cute girls in this series murderers?
I can't believe Renko raped Machi and Paku...
>>289045881Think of nen as a gatcha system. It likes to pretend that you can use any strategy and ability you want in a battle as long as you are creative enough but realistically only the most favored and most bullshit can actually get out ahead in a 1 on 1 fight.Uvo was the strongest in his troupe but he got taken down because someone used a specific broken power that completely made his strength useless.Hisoka lost not because he was weak and not smart, he wasn’t, but because someone had 5 million bookmarks that had 5 million powers in it just because.Netero farmed aura for decades but because a certain ant was born with all the nen in the world that didn’t matter and he had to cheat in the end with a nuke.That bomb guy in Greed Island was beaten by children because of their 1 in 1000000000 potential. This would later happen again in the Chimera Ant arc.And then you have Killula’s brother/sister that can just wish someone away lol.
FMK?
>>289046227bargain bin chzzok
>>289046227That's ugly tho
>>289045893She's kind of unsustainable. Probably also plays puppet characters in fighting games and that's even more of a turn-off than a body count in the realm of imaginary numbers. Hot as fuck tho, I want to see her finger blast the Heil-Ly girls.
>>289046257Kurapika specifically made his hatsu the anti spiders hatsu. This could also assumedly work for example if you had made a vow where you can only use a hatsu against men and if you ever use it against a woman you die. Hell someone could choose to make their hatsu specifically only useable against chimera ants
>>289046234It should've been me...
>>289045203Turning a shoe into a dishwasher.I know hinrigh is labeled conjurer but with him, the objects seem more glamoured and enhanced as they keep their original traits and turn back after a while.
>>289046219>didn't want Tse to suffer>wanted it quick>immediately considered suicide after the deed was doneIf that's not love...
>>289046257Uvo lost because he didn't use gyo.Hisoka lost because he didn't prepare.Netero lost the battle because he was weaker.Genthru lost because he underestimated his opponent.Nanika's ability really is bullshit though yeah.
>>289045616
>>289046334Neko Femboy Killua
What do you guys think of my hatsu?
>>289046397Alluka, crush his balls and boil his feet
>>289046453
>>289046397Touch is too weak a condition for activation. You should have to at least grope the target for a full 3 seconds or something
>>289046314Just his chain jail is anti spider. His judgement chain can fucking kill someone with bullshit conditions
>>289046314The chain should not have been as strong as it was to begin with. It’s like if Uvo brought a hammer to fight against an orbital laser from outer space. Like bringing your fists to a nen gun fight. Like stopping a car with a mountain.I have a huge problem with this because it implies nen is outright useless if you are ever inflicted with a has-no-nen debuff and basically anyone can learn it. It’s just too strong because it can land on basically anybody.
>>289046541Just use gyo.
>>289045881i share this idea too, nen system can be pretty arbitrary. I rewatched the assault on Meruem´s palace and i was asking to the screen why the fluck Zeno didnt use one of his giant ass dragons to pin down Chrollo, but then i started to question which are the limitations in the creation of those fuckers.Anyway, the thing is, Togashi isnt a hack, he is a good writer that can make believe the reader that there are downsides to powerful abilities, let me put 2 examples:>JJKGege, bastardized the restrictions system of the nen with binding vow crap. Instead of conditions pre-stablished before any battle, the faggot cat thought that was good idea to give his characters the chance to obtain convenient power ups in the middle of the fight>One Piecewe will never see Kurapika growing old enough and die prematurely thanks to the minutes used with Emperor Time, thats why Togashi made Kurapika to faint everytime he uses his red eyes for too long, so he can lose momentum and chances during the own arc as a punishment. In the other hand we have Luffy, who, at first had drawbacks after using his gears, like getting wasted or becoming small. But then, the only drawback he should face for using gear 4 and 5 is becoming very tired.... condition that can be saved by eating too much.... situation that conveniently happens everytime a big bad fucker is still around.
>>289046553>blinds you>shoots a gun that enforces zetsu for 24 hoursNow what?
>>289046556I disagree with your assertion Emperor Time. I think Togashi specifically introduced it because it WILL be a factor. I think Kurapika is going to wind-up spending a lot of time in Emperor Time, and he'll either realize he's approaching his end and be forced into a sadistic choice, or he'll suddenly collapse and die at a key moment, only to be revived by somebody else (or maybe permanently dead).
>>289046609You're skipping over *how* you blinded me. And let me tell you...that's easier said than done. *chuckles darkly*
*feels the aura*
Anyone here ever read Zombie Harem Life? I got a hearty kek from the HxH references. Girl on the right flat-out has Killua's electricity.
>>289046627>hey anon look over there!You: Wha-*shoots you with a gun that enforces zetsu for 24 hours*
>>289046624leorio will fix him up
>>289046314>Hell someone could choose to make their hatsu specifically only useable against chimera antsI never bought this idea that people could just arbitrarily make conditions beforehand of "I will use this power but only against YOU! Haha I win!"I always believed that the reason Kurapika's works is because the system of nen understands his suffering at the hands of the troupe and he has actual resolve and hatred for them which fuels his abilities. It's why I don't like him having so much bullshit not tied to the troupe despite barely training at all. It made sense for his anti-troupe abilities to manifest strongly because of his lifelong resolve to get revenge similar to how the curse sacrifices spend years of looking at a picture of a prince, to build the resolve, but Kurapika gets so much free shit otherwise that's not related at all to the troupe
>Anyone here ever read Straight Shit from a Butthole?no, obviously???
>>289046556>Luffy>In the other hand we have Luffy, who, at first had drawbacks after using his gears, like getting wasted or becoming small. It's actually worse. Gear 2 originally had the same "it shortens your lifespan!" condition but that's magically gone now. Same with the times he got pumped full of horomones in Impel Down. None of this will be brought up again because Oda is a hack
>>289046630Tonpa Freecss. The First Freecc from over 9000 years ago...and the inventor of Nen.
>>289046674But It was a hologram. *Slices you into a million pieces with my Nen Batarangs*
>>289046715Just because he wasnt isekai'd with fucking biscuit doesnt mean he didnt train. Also his resolve is as strong to find the eyes and at the end of yorkshin bis resolve was stronger to save /ourboys/.
>>289046822Sorry, but you just sliced yourself into a million pieces. *kicks you with a shoe that enforces zetsu for 24 hours*Anyway you get how it works. This is why Kurapika’s hax shouldn’t have been allowed.
would monka have lowdiffed uvogin?
>>289045881>knuckle's APR takes a long time to actually trigger, yet kurapika's steal chain forces zetsu instantlyIt does not force Zetsu instantly, it forces "a state similar to Zetsu" instantly, but it takes several seconds to steal their aura. It's a siphon. The first time he used it, he was holding Sayird down and had an entire conversation with Bill, and the second time he stabbed Vincent while he was distracted fighting Bill and then he got thrown to the ground, too. If Kurapika stabs you, just slap that shit off you.>cammy literally has "if you kill me i win" power to just revive herself and insta-kill you without having to explain shitShe has to go into Zetsu, which is a red flag, and we don't know it's an insta-kill. Musse walked up to her, kneeled down and touched her body, then the cat spawned behind him and crushed him. You don't know what would have happened if he just walked away or if he were faster to react.>zeno has to puppeteer his purple dragon to make it chase the opponent and all it does is grab you, yet halkenburg can fire a soul-seeking arrow that doesn't miss and instantly defeats anyone it hits1. It requires a group of his followers who have been stamped.2. It does NOT have homing abilities whatsoever. It operates like a normal bow and arrow. If Halkenburg misses, the soul he used is lost forever.3. It doesn't instantly defeat them, it swaps souls, which is beneficial to Halkenburg and his allies, but it isn't an instant kill. If he shoots an enemy and his ally, inside his enemy's body, kills himself to get rid of his enemy's body, his ally's soul is gone for good, while his enemy's soul keeps his ally's body. If he kills his ally's body, which is being possessed by his enemy, his enemy reclaims his own body and his ally becomes his sleep walking split personality.You think this is overpowered and obviously better than dragon-bending?
>>289046715If you could just make hatsus on the spot they wouldn't be very effective. Kurapika's chain works because he literally has a sword on his heart that'll activate the moment he breaks his rules.
Imagine thinking hxh isn't just as bad as shonenshit>Gonsacrifices his "everything" (potential) just to get it all fixed by Killua, who got an infinite wishes hack because he respects his genie's pronouns. Now what does Gon need to do? just train again and now he can choose a better ability
>>289046285>>289046290lies
>>289047017he's not training anything. he's done
>>289047017gon 'reviving' is fine as long as he can never use nen againkite reviving was the worst. what even was the ability? if i roll this slot and die to an ant, i will be reborn as the last ant the queen birthed? what if he died in a fight that wasn't against a chimera ant, would he just steal some random newborn's body? did it only work because the queen perhaps ate his brain? kite should've stayed dead and the last ant born to the queen after meruem should've just been a girl that colt raised, a way of saying that in the end the aspects of humanity overpowered the original goal of the species.
>>289047001You can make up anything you want within your ability. Kurapika does it with little training and that’s how he was able to chain and punch the top members of the Troupe into submission despite being a newb himself.
>>289047128>>289047183Nowhere does it say that Gon can't train again it simply states that his nen nodes are currently closed. And the fact that Nanika reverted everything to "normal," which obviously includes Gon's sacrifice, means that he can simply eventually reach the same level as before.
>>289047271if you read that chapter you'll understand he's mentally done. he'll never be featured in hxh again. his arc has concluded and togashi has said what he wanted to say with his character.the rest is meaningless. whether he could train himself again or not, it's never going to happen.
>>289047312Ok but what about Gyro? Togashi left that plot point open incase he ever needed to bring back Gon at anytime so what about that?
>>289047344it's not happening
>>289047312Togashi probably wanted to just kill him off but the editors wouldn't let him
>>289047344They will meet in heaven
It's funny. Being here since the Hisoka fight and to this very day, rage baiters beat for beat use the same exact arguments for the last 10+ years. It's like Deja vu
>>289047344Togashi knows he won’t get there. Thats why he released ending D. This series is ending at the dark continent if we ever get there
>>289047381They got so boring that I used to have counter arguments in a notes app for easy copy and paste but I deleted it during covid . I don’t even bother to respond anymore.
>>289047359I think he just wanted to tell the story of the rash reckless shonen protagonist kid who burns bright but flames out fast, and goes back to being just a regular kid.He said the same about YYH, he just didn't want to write about Yusuke anymore but the editors forced him. This time, he pulled the plug.
>>289047344Gyro is a nothingburger. It was just Togashi setting up a possible future arc but really the two have zero connection to each-other and it will never amount to anything. Gyro just exists as a form of "hmmm where do I take the story from here if I want to write more" and Togashi already decided the boat arc was a better idea.
>>289047344Whi gives a flying fuck about Gyro? Seriously, we’ve been on the bait for 10 years and maybe another 10. Unless you’re a new fan I don’t see why’d you genuinely give a fuck about gyro when it’s clear we won’t ever see him.WE MIGHT NEVER SEE GING AGAIN AT THIS PACE
Gyro was killed by funny valentine
>>289047417Yeah, I remember screenshotting and the hours spent going back and forth until the threads died. It was good sport then, now it's just hollow and repetitive
>>289047432Gyro is also a necessary invention for Welfin and Ikalgo to make sense as characters. They step up against Meruem because they already had a king.You don't even need Gyro to be around as an actual character, you just need him as a figure that several characters make a reference to and use him as motivation for their actions.In the end that plays a part in the most crucial moment of the arc so it's not just some meaningless thing
>>289047534The worst part is that you’d destroy their argument, they’d put their head in the sand, and the n post the same ragebiat in a later thread. At that point it was obvious they were just doing it to troll and not to have a serious discussion.
wait where are ging, parriston and the mercenaries? are they supposed to be in the black whale?
Gyro is literally just a “break just in case I don’t die before I finish the dark continent” button for Togashi. If Togashi can finish the dark continent saga in his lifetime, and still wants to write, he can easily pivot to Gyro in meteor city.
>>289046987>monke mentioned>no goreinu posting
>>289047587Somewhere since it was speculated by Zodiacs and Kurapika that Pariston wants to bust out Beyond from the jail
>>289047571Sad state of affairs when it derailed the threads but it's a positive sign that less people are biting these days
>>289046707These clown were 90% of the way done planning a dark continent expedition and they didn't think of stuff like this? They should know everything about Journey to the New World and dino hunter plus the things humans have encountered there.
>>289047812Fuck how many years has it been since we last saw Pariston?
>>289046630>MANUGGGaWWHHHHHOOOOOOOORRRRRREEEEEEEE
>>289047885About 10-11 years I think
what was first translated scan last chapter? i read togashi's troupe but that came out on saturday, just one day before the official release so why even bother at that point
>>289045549kill borkasen. fuck pheitah. marry mauraynah.
>>289044729Kurapika originally just wanted to kill/arrest the Troupe, so he designed his abilities around that. Him collecting the eyes came later in Yorknew, after he had already designed his abilities, so now he's stuck with abilities made specifically to fight the Troupe (which he held off on) but just so happen to have uses outside of that.
>>289047812Jake clears the royal guards
>>289047381>>289046397
Is this something the Chinese or some other culture actually did historically?
>>289043635Well he hasn’t fought a spider since then now has he? If he doesn’t find out about the spider’s presence this round I riot
>>289044181HalkenVREK?!
>>289042356>Looks like Hisoka fag's haven't learned their lesson and need to be humbled again.
>>289046666>gooner mangasorry anon, but Cammy is the only one i need
>>289048004Rape people? Sure.
>>289045549I want to marry Morena and murder countless people with her, but I think she would hate me more for each person I killedLike.... murdering someone besides her.... is probably just like cheating on her
>>289048059Why did we stop?
>>289048053Incest okay within the empire?
>>289045010>can’t have loyal guards>can’t have living guards>can’t have privacy>can’t have a nen beast>can’t have safety>can’t have a child that’s qualified to be king>now can’t even have a second o in her fucking nameis there ever an end to the oito humiliation ritual?
>>289048098Because capitalism requires women to be part of the work force, and raped slaves are pretty bad workers
>>289048004https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_slavery
>>289048098who says we did?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_during_the_Vietnam_War
>>289047344Literally don’t know why people keep bringing up Gyro like he’s anything of a significant character to the story
>>289044246now he’s just fucking with us
>>289048098?
Who is going to kill Nasubi? I want to see his small dick cut off and then fried and fed to pigs
>>289048151He literally caused the greatest panel in this whole story, Komugi
>>289048119If a kakin male fucks his kakin sister and they have a baby would all three of them become part of the succession war and have to kill each other?
>>289044930>donea month and a half more of nen training hellor wait to see if the martial law stops it
>>289048174He kills himself
>>289048119>half siblingscan even be considered incest?
Pleas please please do incest Togashi! You can’t do a royal battle without incest!
>>289047423Maybe he should make a story with characters he actually likes so he doesn’t want to kill them
>>289044931Who is the "Illumi" of YYH?
>>289047128>ging said he shouldn’t expect more so that means gon agrees and won’t try ever again
>>289048379Karasu
>>289048151If anything it will end up being a Berserk situation where Togashi’s successor will have to do the leg work for an arc involving Gyro. Expect it to happen in the next 20 years.
>>289048444Togashi's successor? Akutami Gege btw.
>>289048226She reminds me of Hisoka for some reason..Probably bc they are both BPDemons
>>289048469He’ll do HxH better than Togashi ever could
>>289048399He does agree if you actually read the chapter.He wanted to find Ging and that's it. That was his journey. He found the answer to what he was looking for, which was why a father would abandon his son.
>>289048469Shimabukuro Mitsutoshi disagrees
>>289048370He liked them but there's a point when a character naturally reaches the end of their arc. He has no interest writing them past that.Gon's arc is finished
>>289048525Then how is Gon a legendary hunter in Togashi’s revealed ending?
>>289048601Because that's bullshit
>>289048612Togahsi said to assume that’s the ending if he doesn’t reach an ending himself. It’s pretty much impossible for Gon to be a legendary hunter in this current state. He’d either have to train or gain back his nen.
>>289047381I miss the Pitoufag and Cammyfag. Machifag is a clear downgrade.
>>289048624He said it literally fell out of consideration for him but he knows it'd make the plebs happy
>>289042420Go Back is Silent Majority
>>289048624Being a legendary hunter just means his fame is so high. He doesn’t really need his former potential back to be legendary all he has to do is become a celebrity.
>>289048624Leorio was very close to becoming a legendary hunter (becoming chairman of the organization and succeeding Netero while being a complete nobody), and he would unironically lose to nenless Gon.
>>289048725Legend my ass fucking ging is more legendary than gon
>>289043565Luzurus making auch an obvious blunder seems weird now that we know he's actually a careful guy
>>289048725And how does he become a celebrity? The only thing gon is famous for is being the strong young upstart who is Ging’s son. That’s not legendary.
>>289047587It’s never been stated. Pariston said that they won’t help Beyond break out of prison, and Bill said that one way to escape the boat requires Pariston’s help, but it’s never been definitely stated whether they’re on the boat or not.One other thing is that Ging, Pariston, and the rest of Beyond’s core crew are all Hunters, so theoretically it would have been no problem for them to get on the boat. Compare that to Beyond’s mercenaries, who were NOT Hunters and had to take (and failed) the Hunter Exam. So Beyond’s Hunters could be on the Black Whale, they could be traveling with the mercenaries wherever they are, we simply don’t know.
Togashi is not currently writing a story where Gon becomes a legendary hunter. He literally says that
>>289048842Where does he say that? Can you give a excerpt?
>>289048776>>289048812He saved an entire country and the world that’s already pretty legendary.
>>289048842He’s already a legendary hunter retard
>>289043458I got the feeling that Kurapika's fear of guns this arc is that he doesn't want to show his ability to deal with them. He wants people to think he's nothing special physically, and be afraid of him pulling out esoteric bullshit. Like him publicly revealing he is a specialist was him stating he does weird bullshit. It's a delaying tactic where people think they can act against him if they figure out his abilities.
>>289048849
>>289048888That’s says nothing about if Gon will be a legendary hunter or not. That just says he won’t choose ending D. Can you provide a better excerpt?
>>289048925You're the one who brought up ending D as proof that Gon will go on to become a legendary hunter and learn ken even though Togashi literally says he's not writing that type of ending. He just knows it's a happy fanservice ending in case he dies and doesn't get to accomplish his true vision, which pretty obviously doesn't involve Gon in further adventures at this point.
>>289044040>>289045750Ging being Yusuke or a Yusuke-equivalent doesn't make much sense to me, since Yusuke doesn't seem like the type of guy to abandon his kid when his whole arc with Keiko is about him eventually having to stop being a fightfag and actually staying with her.
>>289048985What are you talking about anon? I didn’t bring up anything. I’m just saying that we don’t know anything about any of Togashi’s other endings. Gon could be a legendary hunter in a completely different ending than Ending D. For all we know Gon is a legendary hunter in ending C, but he never gets married and dies in battle.You get my point? You claimed> Togashi is not currently writing a story where Gon becomes a legendary hunterWhen We don’t know anything about thatYou weirdos need to stop being parasocial and stop imprinting your headcanon onto Togashis writing path.
>>289048851lol
>>289049059He's not going to be a legendary hunter. In fact, he may never appear in the story again. It's time to stop coping and come to terms with reality.The story has matured and moved past Gon and his shenanigans
>>289048851Barely anyone knows he did that.
>>289049078> You weirdos need to stop being parasocial and stop imprinting your headcanon onto Togashis writing path.I know you can’t help it anon, but at least try to not skip this part. It’ll save the rest of your response. Because you’re being weird now. You’re not Togashi. Get help.
>>289048787Lazarus personality probably changed a little after all these years. He was def more of a gangster drug dealer back then Togashi wants him to seem smarter and manipulative to give Melody more of a villain
>>289049087He had a crowd of people waiting for him on his deathbed. His exploits were known far and wide enough that even Hisoka from a distance found out.
>>289048159>>289048134>>289048133Iran were right
>>289049094I've read the story he intended to tell, you obviously haven't. Keep coping about that big Gon comeback where he has another arc dedicated to himself to relearn nen and come up with new abilities, and then somehow teleports to the Dark continent.
>>289048431That actually Machi teacher
>>289049206Anon the age of consent in Iran is 9
>>289049176Because Killua contacted them, not because Gon is famous. Hisoka found because Illumi told him and Illumi only knows because Zeno and Silva were part of the palace raid.
>>289049218>still being creepy Anon, I don’t care if Gon come back or not. I’m just tired of parasocial weirdos like you. I know you like to think you’re Togashi , but you’re not. Please get help, for your own sake. This isn’t healthy. I don’t even think Gon is coming back and I still think you’re a weirdo.
https://x.com/sawyer1876/status/2071911894982775006?s=20Explain the joke
>>289049218Anon you are standing on top of a pyramid of headcanon
>>289049252So you agree with me but are just being a weirdo troll for no reason. Alright
>>289049275No, I’m not being a troll. I genuinely think at minimum you need to step outside more. Or at least get an evaluation.Weirdo.
>>289049275>>289049287You two should kiss, have sex, get married, and adopt 12 kids.
>>289048080Sauce
>>289049287What else can it be called but trolling when you agree with a person but act disagreeable just to stir shit up?We both agree Gon is done, end of. As would anyone who's actually reading the manga.
>>289049237Remember elementary girl school got rubble? Can't blame Phantom Troupe.
Illumi joining the troupe is weird and doesn't make sense.
>>289049333>can’t figure out why I called him a parasocial weirdo Oh, so you’re just autistic. Now I feel bad. I won’t call you a weirdo anymore anon, I’ll just call you >challenged Carry on
>>289049359I hope he betrays them and makes them look retarded
>>289049359Hisoka paid him to join the troupe with the intent that they would try to kill each other, it's that simple
>>289044218The Oito sketch especially>>289044201 reminds me of the Jake Hunter games
>>289049359He's watching over his younger brother that joined them because of him introducing them. Most of the things he has done through the series have been for the sake of his brothers, so it's not weird at all.
>>289049393If its really that simple then why is Hisoka pretending to be Illumi and Illumi pretending to be Hisoka
>>289049385>I agree that Gon's not coming back but I'll still screech like an autist at you because you sounded too mean while saying that, even though I agreeOk bro. Sorry I hurt your delicate feelings, maybe this place isn't intended for you.
>>289049393>>289049422Why would Chrollo allow Illumi to join the troupe when he knows Illumi has no intention of sticking around?
>>289049438>If its really that simple then why is Hisoka pretending to be Illumi and Illumi pretending to be Hisokathat's just theory bordering on headcanonThe Hisoka we saw last batch was obviously the real Hisoka, we saw his inner thoughts and it was that weird fightfag sex shit
>>289049441>maybe this place…Holy shit, you’re still doing it. Be honest…when was the last time you stepped outside? Serious question.
>>289048004What kind of techniques you think she's learned in her "craft"?
>>289049452They're short on numbers and Illumi is a professional.
>>289048043HalkenVIRK or -VURK
>>289049452Desperation probably. He lost the main manipulator of the group.Troupe are basically heist men and they need a certain set of skills to function as that type of group.They lost a lot of utility with Kortopi, Shalnark, Pakunoda.Ironically it's easier to replace muscle like Uvogin compared to finding unique skills like Kortopi's
>>289049218Mito-san...
Chrollo randomly brings in a new member out of nowhere, and the troupe have nothing to say about that? No questions, no comments. They completely ignore Illumi.
>>289049556Be funny somehow. Dogman joined them.
>>289049359>>289049590the troupe is just chrollo's emotional support group. they have no motive, no goals, no real objective. hisoka gave them more purpose than they ever had since the story started.
>>289049463I'm probably reading too into it, but I don't think Hisoka's inner monolog was congruent with his actionsHe thinks about wanting a 1v1 but is in the middle of a 1 v 13
>>289049634He'll hunt them down and face them one on one, dummy.
>>289049590Angry Machi
>>289049590They all know who Illumi is. Chrollo hired him before in Yorknew and he's Kalluto's brother, also Silva killed a previous member of the spiders (that wasn't one of the originals) so I guess that spot was still reserved for a Zoldyck.
>>289049438Now I need Frieren to wear Pitou's clothes.
>>289049669That doesn't make their lack of reaction make sense. Someone joins and they have nothing to say? That's not normal.
>>289049634a common 'theme' in hxh is coping and hypocrisy. this is prevalent all throughout gon's character and is shows majorly now in chrollo's, with him coping about the genius of the spider being more important when it's clear he's having a meltie over shalnark.hisoka himself is coping over missing out on the ants. he already proved he doesn't care about a true 1v1 fight or waiting for opponents to prepare themselves because he attacked both shalnark and kortopi when they were powerless. he got the fight he wanted, lost, and is now seething over it just like chrollo is seething back.
>>289049701It’s subpar writing I agree. At lest show some reactions after they recently got betrayed by a former member who was an outsider.
>>289049716Hisoka never pretended he'd fight fair except against opponents he respected.Shalnark and Kortopi aren't on that list because they helped set him up (in his mind).
>>289049590They all really trust Chrollo's judgement so they have nothing to say.
>>289049758That judgement is what got Uvo, Pakunoda, Shalnark, and Kortopi killed.
>>289049794Please be kind. The troupe are retarded dumpster babies.
>>289049794Even so, he's the smartest and strongest person in the room.
>>289049590They’re down five members. 5. That’s almost half their team already. Chrollo is becoming desperate.
>>289046666I did read that and though it was very good, yet the HxH references just went right over my head somehow.
>>289044836If he was Netero's son, I don't see why that would make him not want to kill Woble, unless he had a similar sentiment to Longhi and hated his position as a curse-bearer that exists only to further Beyond's goals.Vict was a retard who got shut down immediately in his assassination attempt, so it makes sense that Furykov and Babimyna who are following in his footsteps wouldn't be as reckless as him.
>>289049808bono's thoughts showed that they pretty much rely on Chrollo to do all the thinking
>>289049893he really is the head of the spider
>>289049911no idea who he thinks is going to be able to replace him... unless Franklin is like a hidden genius or something, who's just keeping quiet about it
>>289049950Machi has shown to be the most level headed along with franklin
>>289049950Franklin held the troupe together at its most critical moment during Yorkshin, he seems to be the most level headed
Does anyone here have Amane as their waifu or can I take her?
>>289049950>no idea who he thinks is going to be able to replace him...
>>289043565>what tserri hates the most is overreaching vanity. He hate those who aren't aware of their own ignorance>He is extremely vain and thinks nothing of butchering other people alive and keeping trophies like pairos severed headTogashi is spelling it out for us. The 4th prince is a massive hypocrite, and he is scum by his own standards although he docent realize it yet.This will be his downfall for sure. The only question is whos gonna be the one who finds a way to use it against him? Kurapika, chrollo, morena?? who knows
>>289050004me, i have canary and machi and cluck and pakunoda as well. They are all mine
I’m getting sick and tired of Togashi pacing. If the arc is ending in 50 chapters how can we get good satisfying Hisoka fights. It took him 50 chapters to basically do most of the setup.
>>289049980Machi sounds more dependent on Chrollo. Franklin thought they should stop relying on Chrollo as much as they do. Feitan is the same wsy but his personality would turn the Spiders to Heil-ly.It could be one of those three.
>>289050059The arc is ending in 150 chapters.
What would Chrollo and the spiders think of Morena's murder suicide nen game
>>289050059It's Hisoka's assassination arc. He doesn't really care about fighting anybody but Chrollo.We'll probably see him pick people off one by one
>>289050150Tyrollo
>>289050059>Hisoka fightslmao he cant fight anymore
>>289050150chrollo loos ugly in that panel, hate it
>>289050170Whatever you say, spidersissy.
>>289049218not a word here says he won't pursue nen or being a hunter again, just that he won't travel with ging
>>289050203who's the next one to get assaulted by a crazy clown in the toiletsbono?
>>289050203>two non fighting spiders> they dont even have their hatsulol
>>289050154I’m tired of Togashi’s decision making, making Hisoka the fifth level plot line in the story
>>289050252yea he should just kill him off
>>289050237Keep coping, troupetard.
>>289050004I like her, she's cute but I'll let you have her.
I don’t see why I should feel bad for the spiders in their current state these mass murderers literally had it coming.
>>289050185he has the chigyu stare
>>289050315No one’s asking you to feel bad. The flashback is just to show their origins, not justify their current selves
>>289050280poor Machi got gummed
>boat is only 1/4 of the way to the destination.who's HYPED for 150 more chapters MINIMUM?
>>289050370Im hyped as long as there are chapters jesus togashi please don't die until the DC
Some people say the chimera ant arc had more of an emotional corse than the succession war but I disagree completely. I feel much more emotionally compelled by Kurapika and Chrollo’s journey, with Kurapika having to protect woble/Oito, while facing serial killer incarnate ,Than Gon losing his mentor/big brother figure that was only in the manga for like 11 chapters (including chapter 1), Killua being gay for Gon, and meruem/komugi
>>289050405Cool, you have bad taste. Thanks for letting us know.
>>289050341It's there to push Kurapika's arc more than anything by showing that he could end up like the troupe, as they have similar motivations.
>>289050405TRVKE
>>289050405Recency bias
>>289050405I agree about kite and killua but meruem/komugi made me cry same as reina with her mom
>>289050429>bad taste for preferring one Togahsi arc over anotherYou’re not an actual fan, leave the thread
>>289050370me>>289050405truth
>>289050341>happy spider cover, then sad spider cover with flowers>tragic backstory of one of their own used up like a cadaver>sad tearful Feel Bad For Me cries during Yorknew>gloomly atmosphere because they lost so many of their own people>”the spiders will go on…even if I die…”Togashi’s clearly asking me to feel bad for them. It’s a shame I have no empathy.
>>289050150we already saw nobunagas phinks and feitans reaction. They didnt really give a shit they were just annoyed at the teleporter guy for trolling them. I dont think anyone in the spider would care
>>289050405Kurapika doesn't feel fear, he doesn't make mistakes and his bullshit ability bails him out every time. He's a mary sue incarnate
>>289050441It’s not recency bias. I felt nothing for kites death. I felt nothing for killua crying about some bullshit every 5 chapters. The best part of the emotional core was Meruem and Komugi, and I just think it’s cool. Togahsi did better in Yu Yu Hakusho.
>>289050463t.clownfag
>>289050150Probably just another Tuesday for the spiders
>>289050467Ging is actually a Mary sue. Kurapika is being setup to be overwhelmed and make a mental mistake.Meanwhile Ging is as strong as Netero, as smart as Pariston, as determined as Beyond, more skilled in nen than everyone, etc
>>289050494hes a deadbeat
>>289050463There is without a doubt a tragic element to the spiders. Chrollo especially. That tragedy and lingering suppressed humanity is part of what makes them so compelling. That doesn't mean you have to feel bad for them, togashi is about to kill them all in brutal ways and they deserve it. They tortured a bunch of innocent children in front of their parents. They are all evil, but human none the less, thats what makes them so interesting.
>>289050514So? That’s never negatively affected him. It’s equivelant to Killua having a sweet tooth.
>>289050494Socially he's a retard
>>289050405Succession War feels more human and interpersonal.Chimera Ant doesn't really hit that way, at least not until the latter parts, especially since Gon and Killua are pretty inhuman themselves in terms of power and behavior
>>289050535He’s a social retard who quickly befriended beyond’s group and became 2nd in command. Even his flaws don’t matter.
>>289050494Yeah but he is not that prominent of a character.
ok so the arabs have the leaks againgot into their discord and im getting them
>>289050494everyone hates ging cuz hes very stubborn and difficult to work with. Hes borderline autistic. Even beyonds men all hate him after he becomes their ally. Even that one greed island dude hates him for changing his name
>>289050548he gave a shit first impression and had to make amends. and he relieves command to elf manhe's basically just a bum hanging on and the 2nd in name only

>>289050566Ohhh the eccentric loner who doesn’t care is hated. Yet every single teamwork project he’s done has been wildly successful. Just look at this page. Pure Gary stu bullshit

>>289050564far better than current chapternot going to be full kura
>>289047204risk and limitations are frequently brought up, but resolve also makes nen stronger. Franklin cutting off his fingertips wasn't a risk thing, but the resolve made his nen stronger. Or when Gon was about to completely obliterate Morel when Morel was asking to get punched once as a test. Gon's emotions at the time, visualising his goals, that's what made his nen strong.Karupika really wants to kill off the spiders. To Uvogin it was just another fight but to Karupika it was everything.
>>289050583>bum hanging onExcept he was shown hanging out with everyone and them rubbing shoulders with him Ging is a stu. Why? My guess is he’s Yusuke Hunter version and Togashi loves Yusuke
>>289050631He doesn't struggle internally, it just causes chaos and misunderstandings.Do we forget that he got outplayed by Pariston and now has a hard on for him?
>>289050629He's so fucking cool
>>289050629I totally forgot about this or I skipped because I really don't remember this scene
I don't know if this is already a theory, haven't seen anyone else post it, but I think Chrollo's goal is to steal the current king's nen beast.He says he needs to steal the royal treasures to get strong enough to steal the ability he wants, and that just seems kind of weird, but the king's nen beast was empowered by those treasures and the ritual they are connected to. It might anchor the beast to the king in a way he can't pry off without those treasures.And as of the latest chapter, it seems like winning the succession contest enhances the nen beast, or the king's nen otherwise to make the nation prosper. So the king's ability is probably freakishly strong by this point, the kind of thing that could take down Hisoka.It also fits nicely into the idea that it's something strong enough to beat Hisoka, when we haven't seen anything that really stands out in that regard, without also being an ass-pull where some new super powerful anti-Hisoka ability just gets revealed out of nowhere later on.
>>289050689That’s the problem. The chaos and misunderstandings are meaningless outside of comedy or showing how cool ging is.It’d be different if say, the beyond group told him to fuck off because of how he acts and Ging had to start the arc alone. But no, in 2 chapters he’s now friends with everyone.
>>289049794Shal and Tangela are one thing but Kurapika is unstoppable, no one's judgment is good enough to escape him
>>289050685He had to go through a whole session explaining he's a retard and that he'll relieve command to elf man, give a donation to the Norwell Fund and become a mercenary subject under him as compensation.If he was a true Gary Stu he would've just alphad everyone in the room without the resulting awkwardness and confusion from his attempt to do so.
Anyone expecting the clown to find Machi? I don’t see a serious battle but I predict a lot of string and gum will be used once he’s done having his way with her.
>>289045881Why are speedreaders so retarded? Smh...
>>289050793True. But it’s still not a notable flaw. If something only makes things mildly annoying for you, while you’re amazing at literally everything else, then who cares.My only hope is that Togashi wants to deconstruct a Mary sue. That Ging’s flaws will actually affect the plot in a major way, that eh won’t just “im cool and the best” his way into saving everyone and never making a mistake. But Togashi is more of a traditional Shonen writer, so I doubt it.
>>289050817I don't expect them to meet until we're nearing or at the climax of the arc.
>>289044123You’ve got it all “wrongui”.
>>289050817Right now they're like halfway across the ship from each other, Machi is alone on tier 5 while Hisoka is chilling in one of the upper tiers, just gambling and relaxing while the spiders piss their pants over him.
>>289050829He already deconstructed the shonen protagonist with Gon, what makes you so sure he wouldn't do it with Ging?
>>289049359The troupe were willing to let Gon and Killua join the group, both were hunting the troupe, no questions asked if Chrollo approved the idea. They don't really give a fuck if Boss gives the ok.
>>289050888What the fuck is Machi doing? We know shizuku is cosplaying and Franklin is sitting in the cafe waiting for Hisoka. What is Machi doing?
>>289050629My hero

>>289048469That's a fate worse than death. I'll take Ishida over that fraud any day of the week. I also don't want JJKtoddlers infesting the fandom.
>>289050924>jjktoddlers infestingThey’re already here. They banged to this series and kagurabachi
>>289050908she's getting repeatedly gangraped by random lowlives
>>289050908>What is Machi doing?Preparing a sick outfit to seduce the clown with I bet.
Any thoughts on Kaizer and Kenni being related?
>>289050924Amen, my nigga.
>>289050908Probably just sulking and seething. Maybe crying herself to sleep
>>289049590Even Kalltt ignores him, he feels more at home next to Franklin and Matiy, the troupes conscience
>>289050924no one can do hxh except togashi himselfgege is garbage, ishida hisoka story wasn't my thingthe only compromise i'd give is on art (drawing, paneling etc is still decided by togashi) only. I think Kishimoto fits but that would never happen.
>>289050920Camny's power is ridiculous, she walked out of the most powerful Prince's room alive. If that doesn't impress you then you also need to consider how quickly she healed her broken arm. Its very likely that she cannot be directly killed, she uses her have nots lives to heal herself, and she probably can't be poisoned to death either. The vectors in which she can be killed as long as she has people willing to die for her are very low in number
>>289050974They were hanging out on the deck though. I think they're both mamas boys
>>289050908She is preparing to kill Hisoka
>>289050564Seems a bit early this time.
ARAB SUPREMACY
>>289050405Agreed. Now I need to actually read it instead of reading recent chapters and watching videos about it
>If the spiders found that that Kurapika is a hunter...Don't the spiders already know Kurapika is a hunter since Yorknew? And I don't think him becoming a zodiac is the kind of thing that would go unnoticed and obviously the spiders would probably know that all the zodiacs are on the ship given the hunter assoc's involvement with the voyage. At the end of Yorknew they almost seem to have an unspoken truce with each other.
>>289051096Considering he’s posted nothing, it’s presumably fake, which is why people ignored him after a couple of comments
>>289050616I dunno about this batch. But last time they bragged about paying 200k for a legit publishing license
>>289050280Hisoka really said it's on sight, lolTroupe is finito
imagine machi slapping you around, spitting on you, and calling you a worthless pervert...
Does anyone actually care about the Succession War?
>>289051233According to Amazon the volume is doing crazy numbers, do the japs care at least
>>289051233Yes
>>289042356412 leaks when?
>>289051243So the japs*
>>289051248tomorrow at the soonest
>>289051216Chesire Pitou, from Gon's Adventures in Wonderland
>>289051295
>>289050405You're so dumb>Gon is not allowed to care about the guy who saved his life and gave him a purpose because... well he just can't, okay?Are you South American by any chance?
>>289051150They should know about Kurapika being there, and should have learned all about Kurapika being a hunter via Paku's mind bullets. Though the extent that each party knows about the others is unclear. Theoretically it is possible that Kurapika knows all about Paku informing the spiders. As he could know when the chain activates, or just if the ability is still in effect, and the spiders told Gon and Killua some details that they shouldn't have known unless Paku passed information on to them.>At the end of Yorknew they almost seem to have an unspoken truce with each other.They do seem to have some sort of truce, even if it's only the result of them focusing on other things at the moment. Still considering Abengane cleaned the chain, and Kurapika said he would know if that happened, it's possible there was even actual contact between them, or something else. It's possible that Kurapika is buying information about them from Illumi and Kalluto.Though I think from a narrative standpoint it would make more sense for Kurapika to only be made aware of the spiders being on the boat, and the spiders finding out about him later on inadvertently because it would make for a cool moment.
>>289051012Illumi forced him to come just like Illumi will try to force Kalluto to betray the spiders but Kalluto will break free from the programming
>>289049590Illumi passes the vibe check. Hella strong nen user. Non-chalant attitude.
>>289046099>that VNThe most unforgettable horror porn game I've ever played. No other game had a bunch of elementary schoolers gangbang a teenage girl against a wall. And the teenage girl loved it. No other game I've played had a 17 year old bishonen guy drink a 14 year old girl's piss and chase her down the hall to rape her, only to wind up getting anally raped by a 32 year old fat man. I still remember the scene where a 16-17 girl was hiding under a bed as her same age best friend was having sex with that same 32 year old fat guy on top. She heard every moan, bed shake and sound. In the wrong end she was discovered under the bed by her friend and made to join. A most terrifying scene was when an unwilling girl relives another girl's sex memories. The girl in the memory consented but the reliving girl didn't. It didn't matter that she was mentally screaming, her body in the memory did all the motions and actions as in history. It's like mind control rape except the victim was fully aware. Another scene the same girl and a friend were almost raped in a magic sex ritual, saved by the girl's older sister, and the backlash made the older sister want to rape her younger sister and friend.The loli in this pic is freakishly lewd and once disguised herself as a teenage girl, fucked a boy until he nearly came, transformed back saying>You thought you were having sex with a highschooler weren't you? I'm an elementary schooler all along!And leglocks that boy, forcing him to cum inside her unprotected, when he screams in fear upon learning this. This isn't even getting into the tentacles, the gay sex, the lesbian sex, the incest, the sequel's mother/daughter lesbian scene, etc. The first chapter alone contains lots of lesbian sex scenes with an unavoidable girl masturbating in the bathroom. Truly horror is intrinsically connected with sexuality.
>>289051233The clusterfuck that is going on around it and how to deal with a nation level nen ritual? Yes. The actual matter of who should win the succession? fuck no. No one cares if Ben, or Cammy, or whoever, win, the succession war is just a framing device for the interesting parts.
>this is a boy
>>289050004I have a few pics of him
>>289051397You're just finding out Togashi is a gay pedophile?
Oooh Chrollo-kun, you better not cheat if you don't want the big bungee cock punishment
>>289051340You sound like a woman lol
>>289043906this is HxH nyugga why the fuck do you want him to fight or be beaten fairly? He's obviously gonna be assassinated through some strategic means or is gonna die anticlimatically to some dark continent lizard or some shit.
BRING ME KEKLLO
>>289051340Why is it that people keep making this factitious argument when people say they don't like the chimera ant arc? People aren't saying Gon shouldn't care about Kite, they're saying they as the reader don't care about Kite. It isn't that they are saying Gon's feelings are wrong, they're saying they don't feel connected to them.
>>289050920Also, Knuckle's APR forces Zetsu for a whole month, can't be broken by allies, and while the whole thing is going down Knuckle himself can't be injured by his opponent until they pay back the debt.
>>289050030Due to his parallels with Meruem and all the circumstances surrounding him I think Togashi is genuinely writing him to be a Ubermensch instead of some naive hypocrite. He's a man with a god given ability to change the world but simply chooses to be selfish. This is a god humanity created, just like Meruem, but opposite to him, and if they were to choose between the two, humanity will worship Tserriednich.
>>289051630Terrence already had a worthless life. He was a degenerate consooming art, scrolling Wikipedia to look smart, and murdering innocent women. He’s no god. he’s just lucky
>>289049590Everything about Illumi in this arc seems strange to me. The fact that no one asked questions when Chrollo introduced him to the troupe can be explained by the fact that no one tries to question Chrollo's decisions, but why Chrollo didn't assume that Illumi has access to the tier 1 because he is one of the richest and most influential people in the world and can buy himself a VVIP ticket, I don't get it. I can’t imagine what kind of business he might have in the tier 3 it’s obvious that it has nothing to do with Hisoka, because he’s in the tier 1.
>>289044931Actually that's Bork and Morena.
>>289051699I think it’s obvious he just wants to protect his brothers from the clown and the Troupe sees that. And they don’t need to rush to find Hisoka it’s not like he’s going anywhere.
Has Togashi done the crazed scientist trope yet?
>>289051761There was a crazy doctor in YYH. Does that count?
>>289051513>jjk shitClownfags explain yourselves
>>289050280>togashi said hisoka really wanted to kill machi right hereWhy is hisoka such an asshole?
>>289051761He’s part of Pariston’s team
>>289051747>protect his brothersYeah maybe I guess but letting Kalluto to join the troupe was a retarded idea from the start. Although the circumstances under which Kalluto joined them are still completely unknown to us
>>289051769manipulator nen
Is the only difference between Shonen art and Seinen art is that seinen tend to lean realistic and detailed? I’m looking at some Togashi and Toriyama Art pieces and some of their higher quality pieces would easily be in the camp will the art rated Seinen like berserk or vagabond
>>289050941this is true
>>289051812After the massacre at Yorknew the Troupe somehow managed to build a rapport with the Zoldycks. They were without Chrollo and down three people so I understand why they felt the need to recruit the strongest people near them. And it was only possible because they didn’t kill Killua otherwise Illumi might have started hunting some spiders.
>>289051777NTA. I think the joke(?) is that they both have copy powers
Machi getting with Hisoka after he killed her friends is some shitty NTR plot bullshit.I would expect that from any other manga and I see why women would ship that, but Togashi would never write such a thing.
