Going through all of the nen class attendees' thoughts. Some outright disbelieve him, some are unsure but take note of Slakka's disappearance. Some believe but still think maintaining the status quo is for the best. Sakata is questioning the alliance with Kurapika due to the "information about Nen" deal, but Zhang Lei decided not to pull out.
>>289225995It takes incredible resolve, awareness and humility to admit that the story you have been keenly following for the past 20+ years, the story that you boldly proclaimed to yourself was the best piece of fiction you have ever experienced in your life, the story that literally changed your life or your perspectives of life - is not as good anymore and is capable of being flawed.So, anybody here that is not enjoying the Succession War and is unashamed to admit it and challenge the masses (in a civilized manner), you should be proud of your mental fortitude and are basically NEN EXPERTS if you were in the world of HxH

>>289226230Based. Pic related was me a few days ago.It's not that the current arc is bad. It's mainly that we CANNOT AFFORD THIS SHIT given Togashi's age, health and work ethic.Togashi could've done this arc with the help of an artist, or not have done it at all.It's decently likely he'll die before being able to finish it, and that's not even covering the tragedy that is not getting to explore the Dark Continent.

>>289226881Why do the schizos try to talk for the entire fanbase though? It’s one thing to have an opinion, it’s one thing to treat your opinion as a fact. Thats where the retard schizo effect pops in.
>>289226804>Togashi has lost all the good will he hadNo? This is literally my favorite arc. I'm sorry you're mad you won't get to see Ging fight Hellbell or some shit but I legitimately don't care about anything BUT the succession war right now. This is unironically the best work he's ever put out.

Ok but where are the spoilers
I was cackling like a madmen internally seeing the reactions of Ch 412 on twitter. It was as if a lot of them got 'cucked' by their waifu Oito and feel betrayed that she is a 'lying whore'. This is happening in the literal Cuckin arc.Bravo Togashi!
Will we actually get Martial Law this batch or will it end with us finally catching up with the announcement?
Total clown supremacy btw
>>289227384They'd rather have their waifu be a retard who brings a baby into a killing zone, rather than one that's actually capable of protecting her child.
>>289227113>I legitimately don't care about anything BUT the succession war right nowYou're not a Hunter x Hunter fan. You're just a faggoty Spidersissy.I will live to see you do a 180 on this arc once they all get killed.
>>289227464The anger is more at the fact that she didn't confide with 'their self-insert' Kurapika. She entrusted this info with Shimanu but not Kurapika despite all his sacrifices.
>>289227384Learning the truth made me feel kind of bummed but its not like Oito wasn't fishy already
>>289227503Nigger what are you talking about? The spiders are literally the least interesting aspect of this arc. They can all die for all I care.
>>289227439>I-is that *GULP* who I think it is...?>AAAAIIIIEEEE A 1V10 ISN'T ENOUGH HURRY UP AND EVOLVE MY SKILL HUNTER THIS IS BASE HISOKA WE'RE UP AGAINST AIEEEEEE
Sheila relevance SOON
Machis character arc ends with her having a child with each remaining spider
>>289225995Bunch of text lore dumps reiterating the complexities of Nen to newbies, some random prince gets developed, ending with a page that makes you think things are finally going to "happen" (what does that even mean in this arc anymore).Anyone who doesn't call it the greatest thing ever will be called an illiterate troglodyte who can't understand the greatness of Togashi, even though they loved Yorknew City and Chimera Ant.
>>289227576The real Machi is living in a farmstead raising a loving family
>>289227576>Hisoka kills Chrollo>Hisoka rapes Machi>Machi kills Hisoka>Machi gets pregnant with Hisoka's child>names the baby ChrolloEveryone WINS and everyone LOSES.
I really, really don't trust people who overly praise the Succession War arc. It feels like they're either overcompensating, or being facetious.
>>289227576This is penance for Shalnark and Kortopi btw
>>289227643Stockholm Syndrome and sunk cost fallacy.
>>289227507it was confided in shimanu cuz oito had no choice but to tell her given she's the maid. she wouldntve said it if she could get away with it, she's obviously very self/family-preservation pilled.
He's here.
Enough time has passed, it's time for Hisoka backstory to be revealed
>>289227211Erotic hag
>>289227661Not going to throw those words around just yet.
>>289227576How does Shizuku knock her up? Conjured penis? Conjuring sperm and then emitting it into Machi's womb?
>>289227724Giving birth is just emitting a child, when you think about it.
>>289227724I'm sure there's some emitter out there who swaps the sex of anyone their punch lands contact with
>>289227785That seems like more conjuration in the vein of Convert Hands.
>>289226804>Pic related was me a few days ago.Imagine being proud of screenshotting your own posts, holy cringe.
>>289227724Conjured penis
>>289227846Screenshotting your own post can be cool when you make a prediction and it comes true. Not whatever he's doing here.
>>289227861The penis is emitted chud

Visual storytelling
>>289227993Now do this for Chrollo’s ugly Indian character design changes
>Brocco Li>RoccoliWhat did Togashi mean by this?
Has anyone seen this lost child, he was last seen around room 1014
>>289227675no, that shota would be too (sexually) powerful
>>289227419>will it end with us finally catching up with the announcement?This
Here's food for thought for the SWsissies:- We boarded the Black Whale 10 years ago;- There have been 55 chapters since then;- 55 chapters over 10 years means each chapter takes over two months to be made;- With over two months per chapter, that's over 3 days each page.So for every bullshit chapter where nothing happens, for every useless page, ask yourself: was it worth it?Was it worth wasting 2 months of Togashi's very limited remaining lifespan for this mid chapter?Was it worth wasting 3 days for this fucking page?The answer is NO, it was not.
Huh oh, melty alert.
>>289228206>That will be 3.39 days of Togashi's life, sir.>Hmm yes, thank you!!
>>289226804>>289226230Agree. All I fucking wanted was to see something happen, + Spiders, +Hisoka vs [insert romantic interest here] battle, but no. I have to read more SHITrapika babble and Oito faggotry, as if anyone in the universe gives a flying fuck about that. Kurapika is cancer at this point and an absolute buzzkill. I am so bored every time I see this Mary Sueish faggot-faced cunt on screen, but not as much as the shit he brings with him, which is 20 pages of nothing happening + walls of boring uninteresting text. Say what you want about Borksen vs Morena, but that shit was fun and interesting. Kurapika and Oito aren't.
>>289227544KWABOTY
>>289227675Hisoka doesn't need a backstory, he's cool as he is.
>>289228264>I am so bored every time I see this Mary Sueish faggot-faced cunt on screen, but not as much as the shit he brings with him, which is 20 pages of nothing happening + walls of boring uninteresting textOh God... I hadn't looked at it that way.I have absolutely nothing against Kurapika as a character, but you're absolutely right about all that boredom that he brings with him.Now everytime a chapter cuts to Kurapika, I will be thinking:>OH GOD NO....
>289228264>now he's samefaggingGrim
>>289228349Literally any random ass NPC cunt is more interesting than Kurapika at this point. This son of a whore wasted half of the arc's pages and content on yapping on about nen, aka shit we already knew, then some lame-ass detective drama that isn't interesting whatsoever. Nothing against it, except the sheer amount of pages and lack of progress it brought along with it. Kurapika's dumber now than he was at the start of the arc, and all we have to show for it is him still standing on the same spot holding a fucking classroom.
>>289228377I just got here bub.
>>289228264im also in agreement. For me, Kurapika was always my least favorite of the main cast, so whenever I see ppl complaining about what a boring piece of shit he is, I finally feel vindicated
>>289228461Based.
>>289228461kurapika are pseuds
>kurapika hatedoesn't nobunaga have better things to do than shitpost on /a/?

>>289226804True pic to be honesthe wanted to pull off some game of thrones tier shit but couldn't do it
You guys are too anxious about HxH not finishing, if SC finishes, that's fine because it can wrap up all the major plot points the manga introduced. I do agree there needs to be some fighting and hype moments, but the passive action is still action, like Kurapika taking gambles teaching nen and revealing Woble's swap to get the princes off his back, or Beyond suing Kakin to create a domestic situation back home. Best outcome from this is that Kurapika does get freed up to hunt spiders
>>289227211>>289227689What the fuck am I doing talking about the manga, LOOK AT THIS EROTIC FAKE BRAT AHHHH
Bisky reverts to her original form during sex
>>289227724pregnancy stone surrogate
>>2892285962011 made character designs more consistent between different parts of the story instead of keeping up with Togashi's major overhauls.
>>289227643I think the praise would be more valid if it didn't take 10 years to release 50 chapters
>>289229048>like Kurapika taking gambles teaching nen and revealing Woble's swapKek. No, that's an absolute page-content waster.

>>289229175Old Leorio looking stirnerpilled

The problem with Kurapika’s nen class is there’s no tension , and I say this as a SW connoisseur who doesn’t hate the nen class.Silent majority mystery should’ve been a more active participant in the classes
>>289229080She's a pervert
>>289229175True, even 99 could be kind of inconsistent with the character art, high highs, mid lows
>>289229213Not if it gives him an out of having to babysit, that's why I do want Togashi to follow up on all this stuff. Someone said he was inspired to add all these things happening at once from One Piece, I'd like to see the quote because then yeah, that could hinder the story since Oda struggled to maintain all the things he set up.
>>289229337
>>289229357>Shatrapika doing anything>Warm Piss out of nowhereI don't wanna talk to you.
Unironically after rereading the shimano/shimanu thing was probably setup from her introduction. Makes me wonder how Togashi organizes all his plopping.does he just have some lengthy document or scattered notes
>>289229397Ah well you're a little bitch who can't read then>>289229354Seemed like 'gashi was involved but not crazy involved since they didn't know about Kurapika's sex at first lol
when is gatherer x gatherer
>>289229530Organizes all his plotting*
>>289226230I like Succession Contest, am I disgusting nigger now?
>>289228264Sorry bro, if you didn't realize what's up when Togashi threw a Troupe flashback out of nowhere, you only got yourself to blame. I don't even care if Togashi dies tomorrow, I have already accepted that we might not even see the end of this arc.
>>289229594Yes bro you have to hate things to be a free thinker nowadays
I do wonder if we'll get away from room 1014 this chapter for a bit
>>289229710We know there is atleast 1 page of Nasubi monolog
Where’s the payoff or threat in the nen classes? I can see it for every other storyline. Is Camilla’s weak ass guard supposed to interest me (not to mention she hasn’t done anything yet)
Oh godthey're gonna whine in every thread aren't they?I come here for theories, memes and smart anons explaining shit, so I hope you guys will cry a little and then fuck off for good, since you don't like current arc
>>289229710Machi chapter this batch trust the plan
>>289229594You can like something but still acknowledge that it is flawed and not of great quality. The problem people have is this glazing of SW as this masterpiece arc and of the same quality or has the potential to be better than CA and YN
>>289226230You might have a point if the succession war wasn't the apex of Japanese literature
>>289229821This only happens once chapter discussion slows. The last 2 chapters got discussion completion like 2/3 days ago. When we get the leaks tonight it’ll go back to normal
>>289229825Gone but not forgotten
>>289229850>problem people have>peopleMind you these people are 5 anons who have nothing better to do.But SW is already better than yorknew. CA we have to see, palace invasion is a momentous stretch.
Why did he had to add the boring mafia shit. Succession stuff was already interesting. The last batch was awful
>>289229310true his literally stuck repeating himself.
>>289229893I hope you're right anon
Since this thread is already shit, I may as well risk asking: what's the deal with the argument about emitted Nen constructs? Isn't it feasible to use emission to seperate aura, transmutation to shape it, and manipulation to move or even give it life? I think it's just as reasonable as combining conjuration and manipulation.
>>289229821>theyIt's just one samefag 2 at most.
>>289229923>5 anonsWhy do these anons think they’re some major force in the first place? Every schizo post refers to a group or people when it’s just those few “one” guys. Is it some kind of mental illness?
>>289227154Damnit I looked at the stupid page where the butler says" only those who are at the departure ceremony are eligible" trying to find the flow and this assy said it easily.The butler never said the baby has to be on the boat, only the queens.
>>289229952I’m a 15+ veteran. It’s always been this way. There were CA detractors too during release time. Granted, there still are CA detractors, but trust me.The complaints for the SW haven’t reached the peak I saw for CA when it was serialized
>>289229979>he can't identify the 5 shit posters fucking up the threads based on their posts
>>289229912HxH stands for Hisoka x Machi
>>289229821They are
>>289230048I remember CA was a slog towards the end, granted I'm 2011 anime only
>>289229964They don't understand the line Togashi has drawn. Emitted Nen Constructs are powerful but lack sophistication. Manipulated constructs are as powerful as whatever they are manipulating. Conjured constructs are bound by conditions, and can be powerful and sophisticated. Nen masters like Morel are mostly manipulators but do all 3.
>But SW is already better than yorknew.Yeah I am not going to engage to this obvious ragebait. This arc hasn't even reached the halfway point and you have already decided it is better than YN even without seeing payoffs or ending. Basically you already outed yourself has having strong confirmation bias that this arc is perfect, will be the best and you will ignore or be blind to any plot holes or character inconsistencies in the future.
I mean, I personally want to see how the Hinrigh/Nobu bromance comes to an end.I want to see more Morena and Bork interactions. I want to see Chrollo's endgame with the relics. Machi is mandatory.More Cammy obviously, More Tse obviously, hell I want to see Babimyna and Furykov's countermeasures to 1014.Now I understand pacing issues or that encroaching fear we won't see these resolved in a timely fashion but I enjoy the ride and it seems Togashi is having fun again. But in any case, were the Bleach threads or whatever mental hospice you can the Dragon Ball Super generals not engaging for you? Why come here if it's not your cup of tea?
>>289225995Since it’s been teased so long and it can easily happen more than any other theory I predict Melody dies within 10 chapters.
>>289230346> only I can decide what an anon likes, prefers, or think is better written. ONLY I Neck yourself you retard. Stop treating this thread as your diary you autistic schizo. Stop thinking your option about a Japanese cartoon is priority and worry about getting laid you basement dweller
>>289229175Old leorio looks like someone who would augh about your clan's genocide and then try to shank you.
>>289226230People react to the current state of the manga in different ways. Some people double down. I had my doubts before last batch but wanted to give togashi the benefit of the doubt. But it is dire right now. That's the long and short of it.
Since Kite lost her Nen, I wonder if remaking Crazy Slots would be any easier, since she already did it before, or if being in a new body would mean all the old muscle memory and aura training gets thrown out the window.
>>289230459Uh oh melty,I guess I struck a nerve when I laid out the possibility of your blindspots due to your confirmation bias. It will be fascinating to see the cognitive dissonance in case the arc turns out bad
>>289230628>still treating the thread as a diaryTied the rope yet?
>>289227544It is honestly weird that chrollo fixated on "sure kill strategies" when he has a 50% chance or thereabouts to win a 1v1 with hisoka, outcome mostly dependent on exterior factors like other helping spiders or tiredness etc Just fucking hunt him down. Find a hatsu that uses radar or something. Its not impossible
>>289227544>powerful nensounds strong
>>289230576I wonder if he still is a conjurer
>>289230667It's simple: he fears the clown.
>>289229175Old leorio looks like that french Chad meme from the ancient paper
Personally? I think this series needs more reactions from the background characters to power level wanking
>>289230779Specialist maybe
>>289230667If you had a 100% chance to win taking on Hisoka vs a 50% you’re saying you’d rather take the 50%? I don’t believe you.Well enjoy being clown’d I guess.
>>289230779If anything can change your category it'd be an entirely different physical form. He leaned towards transmuter before, maybe that's where he ended up.
>>289230667But then the Plot B would end quickly. Plot A (the succession war) is going to be extremely long and most likely last close to the 2 months. Since Kurapika established the major Risk factor of the 2 month deadline, we are going to cover the 2 months. That last week is going to be incredibly tense.The problem is that the Plot B (Mafia and PT-Hisoka) has to also stretch till that time. That's why Togashi is making Chrollo split up the troupe and search for the treasures. It will take up the next 2 weeks and then Chrollo is going to give up on the treasure hunt and finally seek out Hisoka
>>289230576It wouldn't be too farfetched to believe that life might end up with a superior version of his old ability since palm had hers upgraded as well from turning into an ant
>>289230844Him by himself has a 50/50 chance (they're both lethal in different ways and both ultra skilled, ultra secure combatants), but he can raise his chances like he did during the duel. The more spiders he has around him the better his chances will be.
>>289227384This entire arc is just Togashi trying to subconsciously cope with the fact that Naoko cucked him and none of his children are actually his.
>>289231000Can Togashi even have sex anymore? Does Naoko has to wipe his ass ont he toilet?
Wonder how the anons felt during the ikalgo chapters in the CA arc. Surely they were thinking togashi was trolling by putting his chapters in the middle of the fucking netero vs meruem fight
>>289231050I love the chimera ant arc but the Ikalgo chapters haven’t aged well. Ikalgo saving grace is that his confrontation with Welfin is well written and it leads to Mereums epiphany. Doesn’t mean it’s enjoyable though.
The age of 57 is in demand.
>>289227544They will seethe
>>289230936Chrollo is autistic and didn’t even bother telling his groupies his winning strategy he’s going to get them all killed like this.
>>289231116She can probably do some kinky shit with Cookie-chan
>>289230667Maybe he doesn't actually have a 50% chance and there's a reason he spent a whole year collecting abilities like Pokemon?
>>289231050Ikalgo filtered fightfag and midwit alike. His design was too much for some to take seriously even though his portion of the invasion was crucial to its ending. This is to say, Togashi doesn't care that much about outside input. He knows his story in and out and he'll end it on terms he sees fit, not some goober mewling on an imageboard.
>>289231212Chrollo is too blinded by his cope that the spiders can/will act independently of him that he refuses to coordinate an actual strategy between all of them, and it's going to lead to their downfall.
>first detailed explanation of conjuring involves Izunavi saying it doesn't make sense to just make a regular weapon>300 chapters later>pic relI know level 21 gives you an ability without your conscious input, but goddamn what a tard.
>>289230667If the point was to kill Hisoka Bono could call everyone and they would rape him in 1v10, they are too proud and not really scared of him(except Bono and Shizuku), so each member wants to take the satisfaction of beating him
>>289231116Lolibaba
>>289231277I write it like 50/50 because Chrollo's abilities have no limits from a writer's standpoint. From the depiction of the characters it is clear that Hisoka has a physical edge and instant-killing potential while Chrollo has many, many more tools, unpredictability and subterfuge on his side. In that sense, one is not stronger than the other, but they're so different that it essentially boils down to who can implement their game plan first. We saw how a Chrollo win would look like in the duel. But we also saw essentially how a Hisoka win would look in the same fight, when Hisoka utterly crushed the fake chrollo. A real hisoka win would essentially look like that except a little bit more drawn out.
>>289231436Sounds retarded but plausible given how fucking stupid spiders tend to act
>>289231307>enhancers>take ordinary object, use shu on it, make it 50x more powerful>conjurer>have to subject themselves to cock and ball torture to maybe summon something slightly stronger than an unsummoned objectthis never seemed fair to me
>>289231549I think not every Conjurer has to do that, but Kurapika didn’t have any special connection to chains, so he probably had to go all out. Especially because he wanted to make them as quickly as possible
Wait, do mobile phones exist in Hunter x Hunter? I mean, surely a group of thieves would carry one."Hey, Machi, Hisoka is on tier 1—gather everyone." maybe that would be too easy
>>289231549Not to mention theyre cucked next to specilization on the chart
>>289231307>All of Morena's henchmen with nen abilities that have died so far were retards
>>289231549Conjurers can make things with reality breaking properties.Like a vacuum cleaner that absorbs infinite material.
>>289231625Yes they do exist. The question is do they have satellites?
>>289231549They get easy access to vehicles for restrictions/ conditions. Its Good for if you want to autisticly create an ability with 100 conditions
>>289230118she's hunting hisoka, wouldn't be surprised if she has a hunter license but I'll consider her an unlicensed hunter at worst
>>289231625It’s plot induced stupidity.>hey guys, Hisoka is hunting us down, and we know he’s pretty strong, I’m gonna simultaneously be obsessive about this while you guys do whatever you want>oh Machi, you’re going to be by yourself? Shziuku you too? Franklin too? Meh, I’ll sure you’ll all be fine by yourself if Hisoka’s tries to target you >carry on !
>>289231549Conjurer training seems like a great way to speedrun schizophrenia. Move over, tulpas.
>>289231625>>289231839Didn't the troupe have some communicational device for whenever they needed to meet up?
>>289231647Our guy was killed because of false information about the troop, and I can’t blame him. The moment he realized they were frauds, he should have just left them alone or kept an eye out. He was my favorite too, damn.He got killed because his ability made it way too easy to score points; seriously, he was dangerous.Morena should have someone develop that ability again if possible.
>>289231779the point of using conditions and restrictions is to increase the strength of a hatsu that otherwise wouldn't be as strongthe fact that conjurers have to stack a bunch of conditions/restrictions is proof that they're weaker than nearly every other type
>>289230667Yeah Chrollo’s plot feels really weak. Hisoka is strong but he’s not magically protected or anything, Chrollo doesn’t need a secret magic treasure he could just jump him when he’s taking a shit.
>>289231779The restrictions and conditions thing never seemed fair to me. Like the curses of the children of Beyond. How are you supposed to counter someone autistically conjuring a curse and just being near you to cast it.They only make sense if you have to tell your opponent about them.
>hisoka has been located on tier 1>execute order 66
>>289231549>be conjurer >Conjure a specialist nen beast and train it to max level like a pokemon >winIt's that easy, sorry enhancersissies.
>>289231952I find it retarded he just let Machi, shizuku , and Franklin go off by themselves as if they’re all some super strong fighters who can handle Hisoka one on one.If the troupe stuck together but Chrollo went off by himself I’d like the storyline a lot more
>>289231625Kacho complains about no wifi earlier in the arc when she tries to use her phone
>>289231116Our autistic children will be so good at nen
>>289231979Especially since it only took Bono to locate Hisoka.
>>289231839That stupidity has long since been established though. It's the reason why they're individually strong
>>289231979>Machi>FranklinThese two are very strong fighters though, both are adjacent and leaning towards enhancement.Machi's threads may not have as much combat use as Bungee Gum, but she's probably about as strong as Hisoka when you ignore hatsus.Franklin can shoot out a bunch of nen bullets to devastate anything in a general direction.
>>289231916>The moment he realized they were frauds, he should have just left them alone or kept an eye out. >He got killed because his ability made it way too easy to score points;That's what I thought as well. The ability was basically like winning the lottery since it's a perfect way to level up quickly. Given how Contagion works it would have been unlikely to get anything close or as effective as that. Luini should have played it safe
>>289232066>as strong as Hisoka when you ignore hatsusOkay, so she’s not as strong as Hisoka. It’s retarded to let them off by themselves when you claim you want them all to live. There’s nothing still Hisoka from going and raping Machi right now
>>289231911
>>289231916>seriously, he was dangerous.Morena should have someone develop that ability again if possible.that was pretty much their first thought when he got offed
>>289231979I think splitting up was being used as a means of info gathering and it was already established during the meteor city ants fight that splitting up is just something they do
>>289232051Togashi is just copying the Ginyu Force but not as a joke
>>289231979Machi will kill Hisoka
>>289231952He wanted that magic treasure anyways. Hisoka just gave him added incentive to obtain it
>>289230779>>289230876>hePlease respect her new pronouns.
>>289232442He went through GAS agaisnt his will
>>289232442If I have sex with Kite and Alluka, does that make me a homosexual?
>>289232171
>>289231979Based on Franklin's confidence it's probably really hard to deal with him in open space. Feitan's words suggested Franklin's only really in trouble if there's cover to hide behind.Machi is just pure ego on her part.Shizuku it's hard to tell what she's thinking or if she's thinking at all
>>289232516it makes you a pedophile
>>289232539
>>289232325are 1999 neon and 2011 machi related?
>>289231979Chrollo is not a mother hen. His judgment is clouded by his want for revenge, that doesn't mean the members themselves are unaware about Hisoka's abilities.
>>289232661Pitou reincarnated as a human?
>>289232701Bono too said that he wants to lead these three to Hisoka because they plan to just gang up on him.It's basically Chrollo and Machi and Franklin who want to solo him, although Feitan said that Franklin would join them but he doesn't want to be stuck in small spaces
>>289232665Lost sister
Post the Dogman Squala edit or Shoot uses Hotel Rafflesia on your dick.
>>289230006No retard, the butler said all the princes taking part in the SW have to board the black whale. Learn to read.
>>289232785Yep. Going back all the way to Yorknew makes their actions now incredibly consistent.
>>289232707>Pitou is specialist >Bork is also specialistYou might be onto something
In the Hunter x Hunter manga, Gon Freecss is the leading protagonist for 311 chapters, while Kurapika takes over as the central protagonist for 99 chapters.Yoshihiro Togashi structured the story as an ensemble piece, explicitly shifting focus and point-of-view characters between different major narrative arcs |--- Gon (Ch. 1-63) ---|--- Kurapika (Ch. 64-119) ---|--- Gon (Ch. 120-339) ---|--- Kurapika (Ch. 340-410+) ---| Gon Freecss Arcs (311 Chapters Total)Gon anchors the traditional "adventure" and battle-focused portions of the story. His tenure as primary protagonist spans:Hunter Exam & Zoldyck Family Arcs (Chapters 1–43)Heavens Arena & Greed Island Arcs (Chapters 44–63; Chapters 120–185)Chimera Ant Arc (Chapters 186–318)13th Hunter Chairman Election Arc (Chapters 319–339) — Note: While Killua drives much of the active plot here, the emotional climax and ultimate resolution focus entirely on Gon meeting his goal.Kurapika Kurta Arcs (99 Chapters and Counting)Kurapika takes over the narrative when the series pivots into darker crime thrillers, underworld politics, and psychological strategy. He leads:Yorknew City Arc (Chapters 64–119) — Kurapika’s high-stakes war against the Phantom Troupe.Dark Continent Expedition & Succession War Arcs (Chapters 340–410+) — Kurapika acts as the absolute main character navigating the dangerous succession battle aboard the Black Whale ship, while Gon remains completely out of the picture back on Whale Island
>>289232911Everything suggests that Franklin is camping that giant dining hall because he's borderline impossible to fight over there. I'm not sure what Machi's idea is, maybe she's turned her cabin into a death trap for anyone who walks in there
>>289232707If Togashi starting to give Bork Pitou's locks, I will lose it
Imagine if Machi used her string nen to wrap you up like a cocoon before she beat the shit out of you hahathat would be terrible wouldn't it? not an enjoyable experience at all haha
Why is Togashi thinking about 6 future arcs instead of focusing on the one right now? Isn’t that a bit of wasted effort?
>>289233177Give it time when she starts to look more disheveled due to stress and anxiety
>>289232864No he didn't Read the page carefully
>>289232864I should add* its equally ambiguous in Japanese too
>>289233137She, out of all of the Troupe, had the most contact with Hisoka going across many years. She's seen and has been directly affected by his Bungee Gum. Plus she's smart, I'm sure she has a counter
>>289233137I thought enclosed, narrow spaces were best for emitters?
>>289233137Thats not the table he is camping
>>289233235Seriously, learn to read. This is embarrassing.
>>289233264I don't feel like she'd be able to win a straight up battle because Hisoka's ability is simply more versatile but she has a better chance if she's planted strings all over the terrain they fight in to inhibit Hisoka's movements (sort of like Hisoka himself did against Gotoh, although for a different purpose, to be able to move around).
The spiders being traded is overstated. It’s literally only Chrollo and Machi. Franklin is willing to team up, in fact, Nobunaga is going for him right now. Shizuku seemed to be taking orders from Chrollo, same with Bono. Nobunaga, Feitan, Phinks are the smartest ones right now. If Bono and Shziuku die, that’s on Chrollo.
>>289233519Being retarded* is overstated
Today I'll start from scratch re-reading HxH. Any scholars know where I can get the edition with the bonus pages too? I've just reread the SW arc but want to enjoy again the whole thing.
>>289233345Yes anon, read the page. >the scramble for the throne will be limited to only the children of (the legal lives of Nasubi who board the Black Whale) It does not say the children need to board.
>>289233319Well yeah he moved to a spot with his back against the wall but it's the same area.>>289233275Franklin doesn't like them, according to other spiders. It seems he prefers wide open terrain with no cover. It could be there's an additional condition to his bullets, for example, they're homing and impossible to avoid in open area. Who knows, he's never fought for real
>>289233578
>>289233596>Mob boss wastes a good steakTruly villianous
How can silent majority be in the room if they weren’t in the room for the day 1 killings. Can they use the ability in a different way than shown?
>>289228021The "b" corresponds to the Cuckinese definite article "bu", you see, with the "u-" omitted in accordance with dialectal speech. "Cha-R" is a converse case in point, with the exquisitely euphonic "R" kept for-.....
>>289233578Read the next text bubble, retard.>who board the Black Whale and take part in the departure ceremony.
>>289228246Those BW shots might be my favourite in this arc.
>>289233578>he's doubling down
>>289231290It's funny. If the Spider was more coordinated it would be almost unstoppable. Letting members decide on tactics and such individually sounds neat, but it's no good when most of them are morons.
>>289234173On the other hand, if they had just ganged up on everyone, they wouldn't have developed into such individually powerful fighters.Right now Chrollo and Machi are being the main retards due to emotion. Everyone else seems to be in agreement that Hisoka needs to be dispatched without mercy
>>289234247Reminder that Uvo wouldn't have died if the Troupe weren't retards who insisted on fighting all their enemies 1 on 1.
>the succession is invalid because woble is illegitimate! therefore the contest is cancelled!What part of “The right of succession will not be questioned” don’t you understand? Woble (male) is basically illegitimate but that will NOT be questioned. He’s still in the running and he has basically taken over the real Woble’s place. Kurapika’s plan will not work.
>>289230787We all do. Only few of us know and love the truth.
>>289229541>since they didn't know about Kurapika's sexWhen is this stupid misinformation going to die? It's literally just one frame in the entire anime, and it's simply an animation error.In the previous and subsequent frames his chest looks normal.
>>289234379No speedy, you don't get to ignore the part where it says "who board the Black Whale and take part in the departure ceremony".
>>289233563The bonus pages with Kurapika backstory was for the movie only I believe. It’s a must read but I don’t recall it being in any volume.
>>289232555>Based on Franklin's confidence it's probably really hard to deal with him in open space.Hisoka lures Franklin into closet using burgers.
>>289234379Who said the SW will be invalid? The SW will continue as is, it's just that Woble isn't a participant. Kurapika's plan is simply to get the other princes to leave Oito and Woble alone.
is Kurapika a virgin?
>>289234379He is not the son of a kakin queen so no he does not qualify
>>289234379>I'm right as long as you ignore what the actual text says
>>289233578I see, not very convincing though I need to see this line in Japanese, it has to be an English only mistake.
>>289231625holy fuck this board has so many larpers
>>289234505No he got sex from Oito
>>289234449I meant also the single bonus pages like where they explain Franklin's abilities etc or bits like these.
>>289234546He's lying. Or he has the reading comprehension of a toddler. Either way, just ignore that retard.
>>289234423>>289234486>>289234507>>289234507Woble boarded and departed. That’s all I need to know. His previous status will not be questioned. As far as I can see he’s now a participant without a nen beast. Want to prove he can’t take part in the succession? Good luck doing that when questioning is FORBIDDEN.
>>289234505He raped Chrollo bussy,so no...
>>289234600He didn't take part in the ceremony either. He is not participating
>>289234600Holy fuck, you can't actually be this dumb.
>>289234465From the sound of it, it's going to be Nobunaga who drags him to his doom
>>289234637>>289234640Who said the ceremony had to be completed before the boat left?
the reason /a/ is so shit is that all it takes is someone insulting a shonentard once with a reaction image of an anime attached to the post and they'll be pavlovian conditioned into autistically shitposting for the rest of their lives
>>289234546>>289233708These guys get it >>289233968>>289234040These guys don't Im not home give me a bit, I'll explain why the butler's wording is ambiguous. Once you see it you won't be able to un see it
>>289233345>>289234690This guy I think
>>289227560Gon's mom
>>289234697that's the fun part though
>>289234754...is Ging
>>289234742Sorry that didn’t answer my question try again.
>>289234806That would be the most retarded thing togashi has ever written. Just imagine ging being pregnant, I wouldn't be able to take him seriously ever again
>>289234843He doesn't need to reveal or elucidate that plot point at all though, just leave it as a haunting possibility in the back of the reader's minds.
>>289234379Remember what Kurapika thought the troupe died in Yorkshin but he was DEAD WRONG and it only took a lowly conjurer ability to dupe him? Kurapika thinks he understands ancient ritual nen but couldn't even figure out a teensy weensy little ability back in the day
>>289234843Ignore fujotards and their fantasies.
>>289234843He had to do it to test out the GI card to make sure it worked on men too
>>289234902>Machi? More like DEADchi, lmao
>>289234997Why did Bono say this, bros?
>>289234993Why make the card in the first place?
>>289234600Let me spell this out for you, sweetie. There are three conditions to join the Succession War:1. Be born to a legal wife of Nasubi2. Do the seed urn ritual3. Board the Black WhaleMale Woble fails to meet conditions 1 and 2, so it’s impossible for him to be part of the SW.
WHERE ARE THE LEAKS?!?!Whenever these threads turn into Phantom Troupe/Hisoka-talk, the QUALITY fucking plummets it's crazy. At this point I am certain that the Troupe-/Clown-posters are just shitposters who never even watched/read the story.>>289230667Sorry if I am being harsh here anon, but comments like these show me the massive mischaracterization that's going on with Chrollo on this website.Chrollo is the leader of the Phantom Troupe and the protector of Meteor City. Once you start recontextualizing this, the closer you will come to understanding his responsibilities and burdens. As a leader, you can't leave things up to chance, you see them through. Why did you guys think he straight-up told Hisoka "you are going to lose" during their Heavens' Arena fight? He does not bluff..
>>289235074Keep up appearances. He's a method actor, after all.
>>289235102For the LGBT community
>>289234600No speedy, you don't get to ignore the part where it says "limited to only the children of legal wives of King Nasubi Hui Guo Rou".
>>289225995Not my biskue
>>289234247I guess a core theme with the Troupe (and a recurring theme in the series overall) is that conflict between individual and collective strength.
>>289234593No that anon is right, If you read it like a corrupt lawyer, it technically says only the queen needs to be on board.
>>289235102It's funny, iirc there's a couple of other cards that do weird stuff too and they probably put them in just for shits
>>289235272It's the same with hunters. They are all individualistic, and have a hard time working as a team, but on the DC they'll have to in order to survive.Old man Netero said straight up that his son Beyond is better fit to enter the continent than he was.
>>289234902>hardened kurapika from now and younger and inexperienced kurapika are the same, bro!retard
>>289235104>>289235218Explain Halkenburg Hui Guo Rou and his possession of Balsamilco. Does that mean Halkenburg is now ineligible because he’s now in a body that fails criteria 1 and 2? No right? Right? What’s to stop male Woble from winning if no one, NOBODY, questions his legitimacy? That’s the thing people don’t get. Male Woble doesn’t have to prove anything if people are FORBIDDEN from questioning it in the first place even if the truth is right in front of their eyes. It’s possible the real conditions of the succession are entirely different which is why he had SINISTER NEN even though he SHOULD be ineligible.
Our loser trio
>>289235156Jesus man the leaks come out at the same time everyday. If you’re in america, it’s late Wednesday/early Thursday depending on your time zone
>>289235383>if you read it the way it isn't meant to be read, it means this
>>289235484Wouldn't Leorio be considered some type of medical hunter now?
>>289235383nasubi also said it's up to interpretation what it means to take out the competition.I bet there are a lot of unknown loopholes/variables and ourguy is of course taking every advantage of them
>>289235263Well, too bad...
>>289235484>>289235484what is kurapika's specialization?
>>289235483It's still his spirit, dumbass. Halkenburg gained his ability from his nen beast. His nen beast wouldn't give him an ability that would disqualify him from the SW. >What’s to stop male Woble from winning if no one, NOBODY, questions his legitimacy?We're talking about nen, you stupid piece of shit. Nen. Not law, not PR. NEN. The SW does not recognize him as a participant. What are you not understanding about that, moron?
>>289235526Maybe a dream hunter or something. He already hunted what he wanted to do using his hunter license and I think many hunters like him who hunt for common dreams are the same way.
>>289235599He's a blacklist/bounty hunter IIRC
>>289235599Bounty/Blacklist iirc
>>289235483So if I kill every single prince and crown myself as the king nobody can question it because it's FORBIDDEN?
>>289235599He's been a blacklist hunter since day 1There aren't any special requirements for becoming a certain type of hunter beyond just doing the thing you're specializing in
>>289235483>doesn't meet the conditions of the nen ability>BUT WHAT IF NO ONE ASKA DA QUESTIONS, HMMMMM???
>>289235484Poor guys. Even Togashi makes mockery of them
>>289230813Bro enough specialists, I kind of hate how every villain is a specialist. Especially since he dropped that stupid chart about specialists being 0.033% of all people yet somehow we know more specialists than transmuters
>>289235483Yeah, that's totally how nen works, anon. Kurapika's chain jail can work on anyone as long as no one questions it.
>>289235614>His nen beast wouldn't give him an ability that would disqualify him from the SW.He’s dead and in another body he should already be technically disqualified.>We're talking about nen, you stupid piece of shit. Nen. Not law, not PR. NEN. The SW does not recognize him as a participant. What are you not understanding about that, moron?Answer my question.>>289235669Actually yeah you probably could.
>>289235681Gon = previously Lost dad Hunter, now a Lost nen Hunter Killua = Abusive family HunterLeorio = Doctorate Hunter
>>289235786It's not the body that matters, it's the soul. His nen beast wouldn't give him an ability that would disqualify him from the SW.>Answer my question.Whether anyone questions him or not is irrelevant. He doesn't meet the conditions. Kill yourself.
>>289235764That's because we only focus on the top elite nen users in the world instead of all the useless shitbag hunters
Will Kakin accept a black king if Balsenburg wins?
>>289235786You are really fucking dumb, anon. Genuinely. Your IQ is so low you make niggers look like geniuses.
>>289235467>Kurapika is always right because.....he just is OK?!?!
>>289235828As long as nobody questions it when he wins yes.
>>289235828I think Luzurus is black
>>289235483>which is why he had SINISTER NEN even though he SHOULD be ineligible.The sinister nen was because he was ineligible
It's been a while since I've heard it, but didn't some people used to theorize Tse's Nen Beast's face was Camilla?
>>289235263>>289225995
>>289235826Except bozos like Neon, Hina and Leol aren't elite nen users
>>289235683Cheadle wife
>>289235913They are. Literally Binolt would walk through 99% of nen users, that's how shit they are.Neon isn't a combatant not does she have an understanding of nen (neither did komugi) but she was incredibly gifted
You know male Woble is still technically in line for the throne right? The succession war is only really for the next legitimate heirs and that goes out the window once the entire family falls. I’m sure Togashi has a chart somewhere on who would succeed the throne just in case this specific scenario happens.
>>289236061Probably the real Woble would be first in line if everyone on the boat falls. After that they'd probably look for any legitimate offspring of the princes and then the illegitimate ones.Fake Woble has a long way to go in order to make it to the throne unless they just pretend he is someone else
>>289235788>GonHe's a Hunter x Hunter
>>289235967Looks like ponzu
>>289236061Male Woble isn’t part of the royal family, retard.
>>289233968>“The scramble for the throne will be limited to only the children of the legal wives of King Nasuubi Hui who board the Black Whale and take part in the departure ceremony.”Ok anon. So the ambiguity is because of relative clause attachment. Because clause “who board the Black Whale and take part in the departure ceremony” can grammatically attach to more than one noun phrase.>The scramble for the throne will be limited to only the children of [the legal wives of King Nasuubi Hui who board the Black Whale and take part in the departure ceremony]Under this reading, the relative clause modifies “legal wives”, not “children.”>"children of those legal wives who boarded the Black Whale and took part in the departure ceremony"Here, the wives’ presence is the legally relevant condition. The children qualify by being born to wives who satisfy the boarding/ceremony requirement. This reading is supported by the rule of the last antecedent. In legal interpretation, a qualifying phrase is often presumed to modify the nearest reasonable noun phrase before it.The nearest plausible plural human noun before “who board…” is:>legal wivesnot>"children"do you understand?
>>289235967Huh? I don't remember her who's this????
>>289235860>Fashion MonsterI forget sometimes that Kyary exists in the Hunter x Hunter universe.
>>289235988We have seen gifted people from all Nen categories though, it isn't really made clear if specialists are inherently better Nen users. You have genius non specialists like Gon, Machi, and Meruem and specialists like Borksen who wouldn't have awakened to Nen their whole lives. And then you have the entire Kurta clan who are apparently all specialists, maybe the same thing going on with Ai. 5% would be more reasonable, 1% I would understand, but this 0.033% rate given seems bogus.
Tserriednich has nen but he doesn't have the insane superhuman strenght and durability that hunter examinees have. So he should be pretty weak actually
>>289236259He went through Kakin military training and regularly works out so I doubt he's all that physically weak
>>289236259He'd likely have been able to get through the run and initial phases with some luck nenless since he's pretty physically fit, Leorio did after all.
>>289236212For every Gon, theres a thousand shitter enhancers like this. What did they call Gon and Killua again, one in a million or more? While even Zushi was one in 100,000Every specialist we've seen so far is effective so it's safe to say they tend to be geniuses and rise to the top. Precisely why Morena is looking for one
>>289236294How do armies even work? They live in a world where even nenless people don't ever bother to use guns because they are faster than bullets
>>289236171I don't think the butler or Togashi care about your legalese. It doesn't make sense for a player to start outside the parameters of the contest and Nen cares about intent, not semantics.
>>289236142You should learn what “in line with the throne” and “legitimate heirs” means. Maybe look at an ancient list of past successions for kings or something.
>>289235764He has the category closest to specialist and therefore has a greater chance of becoming one later in life, reincarnation just gives him even more chances of becoming one, that's basically why I'm choosing that option.
A romance between these two next chapter would be amazing!
>>289236125Well isn't that the point of the name anyway, like Gon is hunting for his dad who's also a hunter. Hunter of hunters.
>>289231549It depends if you want to be a Barbarian or a Wizard, or have a +3 Sword and +3 Shield or a +1 Sword of Truth and +1 Booming Shield.
>>289236171That’s clearly not how that passage is intended to be read, moron. You’re misconstruing things to fit your dumbass headcanon.
>>289226230spongebob jumped the shark 21 years ago and I saw it live and understood it did as a child. I still like it better than most anime i've seen. whatever hxh is now doesn't matter and never will matter.
>>289236171Kek nice try anon, if this were an English comic you’d be right. But unfortunately the Japanese version is much clearer. They have a specific word that English doesn’t have that specifies the child being the one who needs to board
>>289236518Wergei is the key to all of this
>>289236171Wow, that makes total sense, anon. Just as long as you ignore all context.
>>289236400One thing I like about the Succession War is it shows that every nen ability can be a serious threat, unlike Greed Island where 99% of nen using hunters were total jobbers
>>289236518What's his nen type?
>>289236761He seems like a manipulator leaning towards emitter judging by personality.
>>289236758It’s an entirely different scenario.99% of the minor nen using characters in this arc would get raped by Genthru and get their cards stolen
>>289236761Emitter
>>289235902yeah pretty much.I hope our queen will kill this little fag
>>289236830>>289236883Do you think he'd wish he was an enhancer instead?
How would Vergei react if he saw Gon-san?
>>289227643I'm used to reading books, I think people that only have experience reading action manga and nothing else are the ones hating this.
>>289236928>yeah nice party trick dumbass you think I'd fall for it? I can still hear your child voice inside that suit
>>289236758Genthru was just a monster for the rules and general style of combat on Greed Island. Countdown even on the Whale would be cracked too.
I just got reminded that Zushi is a Manipulator. Maybe it's just a retarded thinking but do you think that his disciplined behaviour and attitude as a martial artist (more similar to an Enhancer or Emitter for how I perceive it) is hindering his potential to blossom? Like do you think if a person has as personality that matches is Nen type then it will grow faster? I know that for Hisoka your nen type is a consequence of your personality but it's just his theory.
>>289235902I like the theory that she bullied and tormented him when they were children and it's why he has issues with women now.
>>289237016It's more likely he just becomes an uncommon type like Bill, but it's not necessarily a bad thing.
>>289225995>next chapterlmao
>>289237007>Countdown even on the Whale would be cracked too.No, it wouldn't. You can't go up to a prince and his bodyguards and start groping them.
>>289235988Why is there no ultimate manipulator?
>>289237007Imagine the chaos and levels if one of Morena's goons had gotten it
>>289237020His main problem seems to be with lying women though. Cammy is a straight shooter
>>289237057That's what he wants you to think
>>289236761Based on his personality, he's definitely an Enhancer..
>>289236863I don't think Genthru could get away with his shit on the boat. Everyone would be way more suspicious of him going around touching everyone and at least some of the nen users he'd try to touch would have their own bullshit to use on him.
>>289236400Specialists are so rare their appearance rate makes no statistical sense. It'd only work if being a natural specialist also made you x1000 times more likely to learn nen in the first place.
>>289237056>tap into a maid or a prince groupie like one of the women Sale-Sale was fucking>time bomb placed right in a prince's roomA nen using bodyguard could catch it though but if done early pre nen getting exposed to ones who didn't know of it, that's potential easy kills.
>>289237057It's Milluki
>>289237016I think there's still use for manipulation nen in martial arts. He could maybe manipulate his own body similar to Shalnark's autopilot, or use manipulation with certain weapons. Manipulation as a concept also fits well with certain styles of martial arts like aikido or judo, using the opponent's own momentum and body against them, or maybe putting people in a grapple hold could be considered a condition for activating a manipulation ability on them.
>>289237096Everyone on Greed Island was a nen user and he was still able to fuck a lot of them up
>>289236692Aww what really? :(I heard it was weird in Japanese too

>>289237504I like to think I'd be a transmuter because I have a hatsu I've always liked thought up that uses it and conjuration but realistically I'd probably be an emitter.
Unironically, but by vibes, what nen type would fit you the most. Personally I think I'm a enhancer because I just want do a head on approach to everything but that's only my first respond. But I tend to either give up if it won't work out or to adapt but do it ina was to not mimic someone else because I hate being like other. Probably transmuter second I suppose

>>289237504>>289237591I feel like I would be a conjurer or manipulator, even if I wouldn't be happy with those types. Both of them mostly fit me according to Hisoka's personality test, and condition and restriction fuckery fits my brand of autism.For abilities, I could see myself making an ability that helps me find things similar to Kurapika's dowsing chain, it's something I wish I had many times in my life. If I was a manipulator, I wouldn't ever manipulate other people or animals because I think that's just morally wrong, but I think something like being able to manipulate heat energy or some other natural phenomenon would have both practical utility and combat prowess.

>>289237959It does seem like a lot of characters do fit Hisoka's personality test, even if a few don't.I think Togashi uses it as a guideline when assigning nen types making abilities for characters, but he doesn't follow it 100% of the time. The main cast fits it almost perfectly for example, but characters like Knuckle, whom everyone thought was an emitter at first, is actually a conjurer.

>>289238070And these are the ones who could *pass* the exam. Maybe Morena is right...
I think nen types are actually kind of bullshit and knowing your types would limit your potential. People treat types like they are some ironclad rule about what you can and cannot do, when really it is nothing more than "this sort of thing is the most intuitive for you." There is LITERALLY zero reason a transmuter couldn't excell at emission; as proof I present Youpi, who is a transuter but his ability is a massive, destructive burst of emitted nen. In fact, as far as I can tell, Youpi never even uses transmutation. No, him transforming isn't a nen ability - that's just something he can do due to being born from magical beasts rather than humans like the other ants.Youpi being a transmuter is also compelling proof that Hisoka's personality test is wrong, because he doesn't act anything like other transmuters.
>>289226230My biggest issue with the current arc is that it's too bloated and unfocused. The geological rate at which chapters come out doesn't help. I can't be arsed to reread the whole arc every time Togashi feels like drip feeding us again. But putting that aside, all the factions and side plots being introduced don't add much and just take panel time away from the good parts. I was already invested in the succession war, but Togashi keeps cutting away to lame shit like the spider flashback and Morena's dopey crew of serial killers, and now it feels like he's speedrunning the princes dying.
>>289237965Sovl
>>289237504conjurer 60, transmuter 40
>>289238205that mainly speaks to the absurd amount of nen in youpi's possession.the average human has limited resources and has to focus on what they're best at.
>>289233345We already know that this is a ritual to decide Kakin next king and has several conditions to enhance the survivor GSB but it's still odd that "legal" wives son's are at the center and not the King's (paternity)Is this legality necessary for the ritual in the first place (Maybe nen contract)? How did Nasubi choose his wives? is there any prerequisite for it?
>>289238205>No, him transforming isn't a nen abilitywell even if it is, transforming is apparently conjuration if Tsubone is anything to go off of
Most hunters being so shit makes the world feel small. I feel like if there’s a good or notable hunter, we already know about them.There’s no s tier , a tier, b tier hunters around that we don’t know about. Just lol at the election arc. Every hunter we don’t know is probably a jobber or nobody.
>>289238205I think it would make more sense if nen was just a magical manifestation of human willpower and the nen schools were just one possible explanation of it, but the water divination is basically a science so it seems like nen types are real and objective
>>289232516Kite is biologically female now so...
>>289238387All of the hunters in the succession arc are competent. It's really just Greed Island and the election arc where the random hunters are total jobbers.
>>289238387I’m sure if Togashi had to write an in depth Hunter association arc he could create 50+ new interesting hunters. But he’s never had to. Even in the election arc he really only needed to focus on the zodiacs. It saves him energy to make all crowd hunters look like generic npcs.
>>289238382>transforming is apparently conjuration if Tsubone is anything to go off ofsame goes for the heil-ly goon who conjured weapons in place of his limbs.youpi might be a transmuter because he can literally explode without conjuring a bomb or anything, but those classifications have always been very sketchy when they come from non-canon (as in manga) sources
>3 chapters in after a long ass hiatus>yeah togashi is washed its over this volume is trash why are you niggas like this
>>289238503Stop falling for the bait of the same 3-6 cucks. Imagine how peaceful the threads if we all ignored obvious rage bait.
>>289238412Yeah, there's over 600 hunters and we don't know anything about most of them. Even a few dozen good ones would be plenty and there could well be more. Then there's all the nen users outside of the association...
How strong would hunters be if they were dropped into Overlord? Could Meruem defeat shalltear? Could hisoka defeat unglaus?
>>289238390I'm not sure how much I actually trust the Water Divination. Enhancement is pretty straightforward, but the other standard types cover a range of changes rather than a single specific change. Salty water and sweet water are both treated the same. Slightly red water and vantablack water are treated the same. And so on.And don't get me started on Specialization - any other type of change? Fuck off, Netero. Speaking of, why does every nen user know the method used specifically by Netero's martial arts school?
>>289238382Transformation seems to be the kind of thing that can be done with multiple types of nen. Illumi was able to disguise himself as Gittarackur using his needles, which is manipulation. Youpi's transformation is apparently transmutation, and so is Bisky's. Tsubone and the Hei-ly goon use conjuration.I guess it depends on how one looks at it. Illumi could be seen as manipulating flesh itself, while Youpi and Bisky could be transforming one's body, and Tsubone could be conjuring a whole new object using the body as a base.
>>289238533my bad
Was Netero banging the female zodiacs?
>>289238600He was banging Pariston
>>289238600Banging them with his fists (and sometimes feet, knees, elbows, etc.)
>>289238556>Speaking of, why does every nen user know the method used specifically by Netero's martial arts school?Because there are only Netero's martial arts schools left after he beat the shit out of all the other dojo masters
>>289238600Yes
>>289228377Cope.
>>289238617So is Izunavi also a Shingen-ryu master then? I guess I could see it...
>>289238205Hisoka's personality test is more of an easy nen categorization shortcut, not hard science with no margin for error.
I don't really like how Togashi made a power system that allows people to come up with their own powers, and then he keeps writing in groups that get powers without their choosing, like the chimera ants and the Heil-ly>>289238556>>289238671Well it's usually hunters that teach other hunters nen, so I guess it makes sense that they would all learn nen the same way. Netero was over 100 years old, Bisky is almost in her 60s, who knows how many hunters they've taught nen to over the years? Then those hunters go on to teach other new hunters nen in the same way they were taught by Bisky and Netero.
>>289228111RAPE
>>289231481There's a fucking dent in your brain. You're not reading the manga fuck you cunt.

>>289237913Very interestingGive your ability a name or else I do it >>289238013Nice >>289238059But can you emite the kaioken? I think not
>>289225995First half of the chapter is Nasubi interring Sale-Sale and Kacho in the burial chamber and expositing about the succession contest. We maybe get confirmation on whether Nencho has a soul or not. Second half of the chapter is back in Kurapika's Nen class, getting reactions for the Wovle situation with a particular focus on Babymina and Furykov. Maybe we actually see how the class is going to work, being split in half.This will continue in 414 before jumping over to Nobunaga and the mafia.
>>289238719Well actually, everyone seems to get an ability without choosing it, since the water divination exists.Killua made the water sweet during his divination. He has also repeated that feat many times (mostly offscreen) and gone so far as to train that ability to make water sweeter. That's an ability. It's a shitty ability, but an ability nonetheless. And if in the future Killua wants to do it again (maybe Alluka's lemonade is too sour or something) then there is no reason that he shouldn't be able to.
>>289232066>Machi's threads may not have as much combat use as Bungee Gum, but she's probably about as strong as Hisoka when you ignore hatsus.LOL. LMAO, even.Hisoka one-shot Shalnark with a single punch. Only the Enhancer Phinks in the Troupe is stronger than him. He sent flying a stone slab that weighted a few tons with a simple kick. His Human Hammer generated several tons of force and he was able to hold that no problem. He was able to redirect the ball from Razor's massive Ko.If Phinks or anyone in the Troupe had his strength feats, Spiderfags would not stop wanking how strong they are.Machi and Hisoka are not on the same shelf. Machi only has a shot against Hisoka if she pulls a Gon-san on him.
gingbros... this your goat?
>>289238792Just that you're a cunt you cunt.Fuck off, cunt.
>>289225995Me rubbing my cock on bisky's abs, and armpits, and then racing it right into her 57 year old womb and getting her pregnant
>>289238548Making a quick calculation with my autism, Netero would be Gazef level simply because he's human. In Overlord, your race matters a lot to reach high levels and humans are among the weakest races, so all the hunters would be jobbers. Shalltear and the rest of Ainz's guards would be practically calamities and the only way to maybe affect them a little, would be with the equivalent of a World Item, which in HxH would be something similar to the components of Kakkin's ritual: the vessel, the mummy, and the dagger, objects that have existed for generations as a result of symbiotic and post-mortem Nen.
>>289238870meds
>>289238865Do you think the real reason Ging keeps skipping town is because everyone keeps putting him in their cringe compilations every time he messes up?
I stopped reading after the hunter election arc about a decade ago, I felt that was a good enough ending to Gon and Killuas story.
>>289238887cunt lmao:)
>>289238894He wants to escape the humiliation into the Dark Continent
>>289238829Yeah and no one seems to talk about how Enhancers can create water out of nothing. 1 gram of that created water, holds 90 trillion joules of energy, just need technology to catch up to extract it.
>>289238600Bisky called him a pervert for some reason you know.
>>289238205>I think nen types are actually kind of bullshit and knowing your types would limit your potentialYou sound like a faggot Specialist. "Don't pigeonhole me, maaan!" You'd get Kastro'd in your first arc.>People treat types like they are some ironclad rule about what you can and cannot doYou're right, but the next thing you said was so wrong I didn't even bother quoting it. An Enhancer who trains in Enhancement as much as Killua will never lose to him in Enhancement. That's all. It's no different than gene environment interactions. That doesn't mean you CAN'T just use abilities outside your affinity, they just won't ever be as strong as they would have been had you focused on your own type.>There is LITERALLY zero reason a transmuter couldn't excell at emissionNature.>Youpi never even uses transmutationThe explosiveness of his aura is probably Transmutation. Not a high level of it, but aura normally just flies through stuff. It's also possible Transmutation has something to do with him converting anger into power. There's multiple Transmuters in the manga who have abilities that are some kind of energy conversion. Unfortunately, it's hard to tell if that's a spurious relationship or not because Togashi hates Transmuters.>No, him transforming isn't a nen abilityTrue.>Hisoka's personality test is wrongTrue.
All the "he's a one-in-quadrillion talent!" shit is nonsense because there are less than 1000 nen users in the world. Morena's statistics about specialists are just as stupid, because there aren't enough nen users to get a sample size for a figure that small.
>>289238942I think they are just temporarily expanding the volume of water, not creating it.
>OH MY SWAP BABY already forgottenBaby nen bros it's over
>>289238205>There is LITERALLY zero reason a transmuter couldn't excell at emissionThere are several.You have this personal view of how YOU think the Nen system SHOULD BE, and this poisons your understanding of how Nen ACTUALLY IS.By word of narrator, a Conjurer will never get more than 40% efficiency in whatever he does with Emission, and that's on top of his limited proficiency.And Ultimate-level Nen User will never achieve Genius status in his opposite category. It's simply not possible.
>>289238994You're confusing hunters with nen users
>>289238994All human beings have the potential to learn nen. All human beings belong to a nen category even if they can't use nen.
>>289238821I think Kurpaika’s nen class will continue to run during martial law
>>289238994well she said it's just from her own experience (limited)
>>289239052Why are specialists x1000 times more likely to learn nen?
>>289238994>Morena's statistics about specialists are just as stupid, because there aren't enough nen users to get a sample size for a figure that small.Yes, that's actually retarded from Togashi's part.The easiest cope is to treat it as if Morena's was simply wrong, or lying for whatever reason.
>>289238881Thanks
>>289238974>You're right, but the next thing you said was so wrong I didn't even bother quoting it.Well, you followed that up with a statement I more or less agreed with, so I think I just expressed my point of view in a bad way. If something is intuitive to me and not to you, I am almost certainly always going to be better at it than you, and vice versa. >You'd get Kastro'd in your first arc.Yeah, probably. But I also don't think I'd even have a combat ability, so I'd probably get Neon'ed instead.
>>289239065That's a 1:3000. Did Morena awaken the nen of 3000 people?
>>289239035Why do you think that?
>>289239117probably it's based on how many dogman has foundhe's level 62 so him and morena have probably been together for a while
>>289238994Morena gives people Nen by kissing them and we've already seen one of her peons develop the ability to sniff out people's Nen types. I think if anyone would know, it'd be her.>>289239054It looks like it from Togashi's tweets.
>>289238205Youpi's aura pool is so massive and his raw natural talent as a royal guard is so high that he could excel at anything on a level beyond what any human is capable of.
>>289239143If you reduce the quantity of water, would you still be an Enhancer? Every enhancer shown so far has increased the quantity, though that's admittedly not a large sample size.If so, how does one negatively enhancing something even work? In this example it would seem you are just erasing water from existance, which doesn't feel very enhancer-y.
>>289239143Wing describes it as changing the volume of water.This makes perfect sense, as Enhancers are injecting their aura into the water, which makes the water more spaced out.Enhancers generating more water doesn't make any sense.
>>289239087No problem.Also I was going to add that, on top of all that, you chose Shalletar who iirc she is Ainz's strongest guardian.I can see her doing the Unglaus nail calipper thing but with Meruem post-rose.
>>289239070They aren't.
>>289239229If we're taking Morena's stats as correct, they have to be. Otherwise the hunter association would have a total of 0.2 specialists.
>>289238865Yeah that's my hero
>>289239256>Otherwise the hunter association would have a total of 0.2 specialists.While the Phantom Troupe alone had 2 lol
>>289239221Volume can be used to mean both quantity and space taken up, why would Togashi then specify Volume in my pic? Enhancers generating more water makes perfect sense. How would Netero survive for years without food or water otherwise if his Aura didn't provide energy from nothing?
>>289239313>Netero survive for years without food or water???
>>289239223Wow lol, can Meruem take on the Pleiades at least?
>>289239313Conjuration is the only category that generates matter.
>>289238205Its pretty much this. See Kastro, that conjured a clone with his native enhancement focus (+ strong emission) and made it ridiculously strong, enough so that it basically made the clone indistinguishable from himself in strength. Wing is a retard, don't listen to him. Kastro had a good ability.
>>289239048You use your native strength to do the thing you want to do through a back door. See Knov. Whether you think he's a conjurer or an emitter, he's constantly doing the polar opposite of his native type and makes it work, because one feeds into the other.
>>289239329He collapsed, slept, then woke up and started again without break, he did this for years. He didn't change his clothes, he didn't shave, but I bet you'll say he went off screen to eat retard, he even asked the head Dojo guy for something to eat when he came back.>>289239349It clearly isn't since you can see Enhancers making water from nothing.
>>289239362He needs conjuring and manipulation too. He spends way too much nen on the clone and its pretty distracting for him
>>289239414>It clearly isn't since you can see Enhancers making water from nothing.We are going in circles. They are not making more water, they are just enhancing one of its properties, which is volume.
Oh no its the same retard who thought making a clone is enhacement
>>289239283>>289239256Specialists are individualistic, they don't join up with """associations"""
>>289239392I don't get why people keep acting like Knov is performing some massive feat of conjuration by maintaining the structure in his pocket dimension.It's just a simple nondescript building with seemingly no special abilities. Creating a specific, normal thing is not what conjuration is about, it's about endowing it with special abilities. If you're just dealing with regular things, the size and amount is just a question of aura amount.Compare that to an actual impressive conjuration ability like Kortopi cloning 50 skyscrapers at the drop of a hat.
>>289239335Yeah... I think that's way more plausible.
>>289239432kastro should've been like tiger manretardmaxxwould speed blitz hisoka before he can react
>>289239048Conjuration has the shittiest placement on the hexagon.>conjuring an object that isn't connected to the body requires separating nen from the body, which is emission>conjurers only have 40% emission proficiency, severely limiting the strength of disconnected objects>controlling a conjured object requires manipulation>specialization sits in between conjuration and manipulation, cucking them down to only 60% manipulation affinity, limiting how well they can control their own conjured objects>conjurers also only have 60% enhancement affinity, reducing the effectiveness of using shu to strengthen conjured objectsNo wonder Togashi had to give Kurapika an O MY SCARLET EYES asspull to make him a specialist, otherwise he'd be gimped as shit.
>>289238560>Youpi's transformation is apparently transmutation, and so is Bisky's.I would like to remind you that transmuters aren't restricted to only using transmutation abilities.Conjuration is their neighbor category.
>>289239451No, you are just claiming that they are without providing any proof because you think "it makes no sense" that Enhancers create water, when they can live without food or water.
>>289239362Kastro's ability would have been fine if he added conditions to it. All the best nen masters use their worst categories.
>>289239476>Kortopi cloning 50 skyscrapers at the drop of a hat.Honestly one of the most impressive feats in the series, if not THE most impressive. This man pulled an entire city out of his ass.
>>289239561It would have been fine if Kastro just had a chance to test it in real conditions more. If he had survived the fight, he 100% would have been able to fix its flaws.
>>289239502>>conjuring an object that isn't connected to the body requires separating nen from the body, which is emissionI don't think this is stated anywhere.I know Genthru's Bomber was a mix, but there the bombs were conjured at a distance (after being marked) as well, hence the requirement for Emission, I think.I doubt that a sword you conjure would disappear if you let go of it.
>>289239502>conjuring an object that isn't connected to the body requires separating nen from the body, which is emissionNo, that's part of conjuration. No emission invovled.
>>289238560Youpi's transformation is due to the magical beasts that compose him.
>>289238560Bisky's ability is not natural transmutation. There's no evidence Youpi's is either.
>>289239593>I don't think this is stated anywhereYes it is. In several instances.>I know Genthru's Bomber was a mix, but there the bombs were conjured at a distance (after being marked) as well, hence the requirement for Emission, I think.Genthru had a group ability with the other two Bombers. Presumably, one was an Emitter, and the other was a Manipulator.>I doubt that a sword you conjure would disappear if you let go of it.Eventually it would.
>>289239471I do not, address the argument, what makes more sense, Enhancers increase the amount of water during water divination because: -We see the amount increase-It says so in Togashi's notes-Enhancers like Netero can live without water or food for yearsOr that Enhancers change the volume of water without increasing the amount for some reason, even though thats not something we've ever actually seen an Enhancer do. Did Bill temporarily grow that seed into plant? Do you think it shrunk back down after the aura was removed? Or are you going to say "Plants grow naturally" Not without energy and nutrients retard, if Enhancement can make up for that, it already is creating something from nothing.
>>289239362>Kastro had a good ability.Correct. Tiger Bite Fist was actually good because it was an enhancer ability centered in his main category. Simple and effective which is exactly what you want from an enhancer ability. His double however was a massive waste of energy he could have been pumping elsewhere. Genthru has to jump through a lot of hoops to essentially do what Kastro was doing when he fights Gon.
>>289239687Nen is energy it probably stimulates the cells to grow without the use of water and nutrients
>>289237504Transmuter, even though I really wanted to convince myself it was Specialist. Still, I like Transmuter; rare enough to feel cool and lets make some chuuni shit, like elemental Saint Seiya armors.
>>289239476Gross simplification of Knov's ability. Not worthy of a reply
>>289239561It is fine as it is. As many others have said, this is an ability that he came up with himself, didn't use much at all, had no experience with, and in general had no experience in nen combat to speak of. Not high level fights the like he was capable of. He also had a monumental weakness in that he wanted to impress and overshadow hisoka. Bad combo. Hisoka exploited some weaknesses, but even the narrator said that had he fought regularly he would have made a good showing. Not many guys hold that distinction in this manga. Kastro was good, and nothing convinces me he should've solely trained his basic abilities and stayed a run of the mill enhancer. The upside of his ability is too large for that. He could win against other reinforcers with trickery and against any other nen affinity with sheer force + speed of attacks
My ability allows me to manipulate anyone who as argued with me online about the minutae of nen mechanics. Unfortunately, there is a restriction that only allows me to manipulate those people into arguing with me more.
>>289239819That is still creating from nothing, you just kicked the problem down the road. Enhancers can create more of something, just like how Gon-San increased his total aura amount, or how Halkenburgs beast can increase the entire groups aura amount when they are in agreement.>>289240274>Still haven't made an argument
>>289239793Kastro's double is a good ability. He still has a "tiger bite fist" which is a regular martial arts ability. He doesn't sacrifice anything to keep his stand-alone strength, which can still easily cut off limbs from hisoka. What would've changed had he had a STRONGER tiger bite fist? What would that have achieved vs hisoka? The lesson from this fight is hollow
>>289240274sounds like an emitter's ability to me
>>289240304Let's also not forget that Kastro made his double in a very short period of time. He likely had a great affinity with his doppelganger, which also helped make it stronger. Would training his main category above all else (wing's idea of fun) have really made him stronger? Or would it go against doing what you're in tune with, which is literally every good nen ability in the manga? Kastro should in all cases become great with the clone while also still training enhancement rigorously.
>>289240380I think part of the issue is that Kastro set no conditions for himself. Netero's might've been simple, but it was clearly enough to make a difference. Kastro is out here making a perfect double of himself with no restrictions in a category he can only use at 60%. Had he shifted some of the burden by making the double unable to act quite as freely or require set-up, instead of training this demanding power to the max to the exclusion of the fundamentals, he might've been better off.
>>289240572I think it is entirely possible that Kastro simply didn't know about vows and conditions. His only reference on what nen is capable of were Hisoka and the various arena jobbers, and I can't think of any of them who have a noticable condition.
>>289240304The ability itself is fine anon. If he were a conjuror or a manipulator, it would be a perfectly fine ability. The issue is he's a fucking enhancer. His potential with those two nen types is 60% each. That means hes working with less than 40% efficiency and 40% potential. It costs Kastro FAR more energy to use the ability and takes Way more nen mastery for him to accomplish. If Kastro had spent the same amount of effort on an enhancement ability he could achieve something on a far far higher level and it would cost far less nen

>>289229603The Troupe flashback was great. It's the Kurapika chapters that are the problem.

>>289237504Emitter. In all my friend groups I've been known for being the one that chimps out at the drop of a hat but calms down when offered food or some shit, which kinda fits with Hisoka's description of the emitter profile.

>>289238387Nen oddly enough just doesn't feel like a power system built for fighting but more for gadgets and tricks. Only the tip top of the elite get to use it for fighting purposes effectively.
