Hunter x Hunter

[Gary]

i like the openings there good

['REDHAIRED' SHANKS]

Alright, im just gonna come right out and say what i think bout this shit.
In the beginning i didn't really care, but after a few days i realize how fuckin boring this thread is without a bit of off-topic talk on the side...
So goddamn.....we need spam!

That was what unique about the HxH thread ... posts like the one below was what I think the fellow regulars strived for. I am glad that people liked reading stuff, even if it was random.

please unlock the previous thread, i dont post much, but i do enjoy reading everything in the old thread, even if its not HxH related. That thread was on its way to become the most legendary thread in the forum.

anyways, im starting to feel that everything will fail, i dont think any of the royal guards will be beaten, its gotta be some other way to end this arc.

I think the Royal guards have to be defeated one way or the other. There won't be a satisfactory conclusion to the arc otherwise. Don't forget that the HxH is not strictly powerscaled. The one with the better strategy can still hope to win

i never regarded pufu as fail :pek besides, hes a royal guard, what do you expect?

also, 1st OP for greed island (as well as every single OP) is absolutely fucking win. (http://youtube.com/watch?v=7Kns8qMNXuc) (and thx for the links CMGOGO, id rep you but i must spread rep). FULL VERSION :WOW (http://youtube.com/watch?v=nDd_I481ShA&feature=related)

also, since you guys seem to be scared of spamming right now (pek :pek) lets at least start discussion- youre favourite OP?

Man I just remember OP for it's epic background music. The music in the anime had this nice feel to it, and made you feel as if everything is set in a peaceful village.
Killua and Gon's farewell with Ging and Zushi (got the name finally) was one of the most poignant scenes in the anime.

Wonder what Zushi is doing atm ... ?

[Gary]

mayby i should watch the anime a little this weekend

[Black Leg Sanji]

I wonder what anime i should start with next after HxH..

Not easy to decide :argh

[Starwing]

My favorite OP is still the first one, including the theme and everything. I loved how everything was optimistic and like the preparation for a journey. The mundane aspect of it was also brilliant.


As for Meruem's twin, I don't think he got any nutrition at all. Sort of like cuckoos, in which one chick monopolizes all the food in the nest and leaves nothing for the siblings (or non-siblings). The siblings eventually die.

Since the ants were always concerned with survival of the strongest, the concept of twins may not even be unexpected.

Anyways, yes, I too think that everyone will fail in this arc, and the battle will be resolved by plot and maybe strategy instead of power. Like in York Shinn, did any of us believe that Gon and co. would win against the spiders? (well, if we did, we were buying into shounen conventions and probably didn't understand Togashi very well)

The power levels are simply too vast. I dono't believe there is any way to win w/o cheating in some way.

My guess is that the only one who will be defeated is Yuppi, since so much has been invested in that battle, and he is being beaten by so many.

Pufu, Pitou and Meruem will be subdued in other ways. For example, Pitou may fail to bring Kaitou back and be honor-bound to kill himself (herself?). Things like that.


@BLS
I'm so, so sorry about your grandfather. I hope he went peacefully. Mine passed away last winter, and I couldn't even attend his funeral because he's in the old country. Tickets, exams, politics and all those stupid issues got in the way.

Yes he did. I am glad he didnt have to endure more pain (was cancer) and that he didnt have to move to a home for old people.

Still sad though...

[Gary]

i also liked the first hxh op

[Eldritch]

lol I listened to Ohayou over 500 times on my ipod. No joke.

Oh yea and the greed island final opening is addictive if you listen to it a few times.

im such a dork

[Gary]

^ your not the only one XD

[Razza]

The second opening is awesome though. I've watched it/listened to it about a million times.

[uchiha-alia]

there are still more people viewing the other thread, whenever you look... :(
This thread is going to die if things carry on the way theyre going, and for the first time in a long while, we may go a full day without one post in a HXH thread... :cry

[Amatsu]

Meh I odn't like many of the HxH opening themes. The only ones I liked were Ohayou and Believe in Tomorrow. The rest were just really hard to listen too...

Oh and GoGo I just want to extend my apologies.

[Ennoea]

Why are you apologising to me Aethos? You didn't do anything wrong:oh

And yes!!!! Thread is back!! Don't worry Pek next time someone goes too much offtopic, there will be blood:bang

As for Op/Ed, I hated Ohayo by the end, and Hotaru is the greatest Ed ever made:yell

I think it will be best if we spoiler tag any off topic conversation :hehee

I think we've done this before but what the heck ....

most epic moment in the manga so far ?

My nomination - Kaito showing us his hatsu :cry :cry :cry

How could Togashi waste such a cool and awesome hatsu :cussing:cussing ???

Or will I be proved wrong o.0

[Ennoea]

[Gary]

lol because the ants more mostly made of bad people ?

[Ennoea]

Chimera Ants are an anomaly now, normally the Queen is suppoused to be 10 inches long yet we all know what her actual size was, so I assume Jairo messed around with them, the Ant's origins need to be revealed:pek

[Emperor Time]

lol because the ants more mostly made of bad people ?

I suppose so since that nation of the NGL was making a whole lot of illegal drugs.

[Gary]

yeah just proves my point

[KLoWn]

I AM THE CREATOR OF HUNTER X HUNTER!
...:facepalm

[Ennoea]

Not really alot of good people were turned in to ants, Im guessing their overtaken by their hunger. They're trying to survive, its just that they've been turned in to a disgustingly vicious bunch at the same time.

I AM THE CREATOR OF HUNTER X HUNTER!

You lazy bastard:LOS

The threads with spam in spoiler threads were deleted because they had nothing else in them ... I propose that we put the non HxH stuff in the spoiler tag ... or change it to "off-topic tag"
:hehee
As for getting up at 5 AM, no reason :ninja
You change the "spoiler" tag to "spoiler=off topic" to change the spoiler tag to off topic tag.

As for the Chimera ants ... they turned "good" because they were more loyal to the Queen than the King.

And the octopus was converted because of Killua's compassion.
They didn't turn good .. they just changed their perspective, Thats all.

Well that true but at least those 8 gave up on eating humans anymore at least. smile-big

[KLoWn]

Wow, did someone else notice the activity going up with like 110% right after we went back to the old thread :quite

[Gary]

he is taking the ants not eating after raizen from yu yu hakusho

[Ennoea]

Am I the only one that doesn't trust Meleron? He seems like he has an agenda in helping the Hunters defeating the King.

Well I am pretty sure that the Koloa officer under Meleron has a agenda for joining the human side too.

Bro, you do need to get back and read the manga once again :LOS

Maleron hated that the queen was killed ... he wanted to obtain his vengance so he teamed up with the invading hunters to give them a chance of beating the king.
This is revealed when he stalks Gon

I'm planning to re read the Chimera ant arc ... gotta start it X3 X3 X3

[Ennoea]

Well I am pretty sure that the Koloa officer under Meleron has a agenda for joining the human side too.

He probably didn't want his head getting ripped off by the King:LOS

All lies!!:yell

[Gary]

:LOS I AM GOIGN TO REREAD THIS ARC

[Emperor Time]

why do you think so ?

Well it because he is the only officer to leave his commander to join the side that is pro Queen and thus is pro Human.

[Cthulhu-versailles]

H X H needs some Bonus/Special Ova's where we just get stories about the diffrent types of hunters.

They sure are since even the King was told that.

That is true since when the King tried another organ it did not taste good at all.

[Gary]

[Emperor Time]

Well it Zombie approved you know.

[Emperor Time]

I know so will Kuroto or Bee-Horn or the Raccon commander or the Squid commander or the Koala officer ever fight in order to help out the good guys?

HxH does rock and I would be very grateful for a better camie pic too.

[AbnormallyNormal]

Okey now that i am done with the first anime with only the OVAs left i have some questions:

- Whats up with Killua looking like a cat when fighting with Gon?
- The bigger the nenaura of a person is, does that mean the stronger he is? If so could Zeno, Silva and Lucifer be considered to be on the same powerlvl?

Also the Zeno and Silva vs Lucifer-fight was pure :gar ness

I was amazed bye the speed that was displayed :omg

And the Kurapica x Leorio moment at the end of ep 62 was hilarious with the girlish expressiong Kurapica had :LOS

No I dont think so, I think strength depends on the other factors too

I would consider them in the same power level


Also the Zeno and Silva vs Lucifer-fight was pure :gar ness

And thnx for your view Hisoka-chan :wink

[hgfdsahjkl]

@sanji
so after finishing hxh is it one of your favourite 2nd 3rd
and you dont talk about hisoka whtat do you think about him

[Black Leg Sanji]

@sanji
so after finishing hxh is it one of your favourite 2nd 3rd

I have the OVAs left dude :huh

And after that 95 chapters of manga so i am nowhere done yet :P

So far among my favourites it can be anything from 2nd to 5th.

As for how good it is it would be 3rd.

I find Hisoka interesting though he has gotten way to little screentime after his fight with Gon for me to judge him totaly yet.

[hgfdsahjkl]

i watched first ova great
but GI ova wasnt good so i read the manga

[Black Leg Sanji]

i watched first ova great

Meh i got advised that i should watch the OVAs too before starting from chapter 185 so i go with that.

[hgfdsahjkl]

Meh i got advised that i should watch the OVAs too before starting from chapter 185 so i go with that.

sure as you like
but GI didnt have animation and colours as series and first ova
i always prefer anime over manga
but that was one of th few where i say manga > anime:)

ah and which your no 1 anime i want to know ?

-Though the size of your aura can be an indication that you are strong, it doesn't necessarily determine your overall strength. Ubo vs. Kurapica was an example. Ubo was the stronger fighter, but Kurapica's strategy led him to victory nonetheless.
Also, there's a difference between aura (ren) and En. En is an advanced technique which incorporates ten and ren. While someone may have a large aura, he might have a limited En range. En seems to be dependant of your needs and the extent to which you have trained it to. Zeno, who uses it to scout out enemies like he did with Kuroro, has an incredible En-range of 300 m. Though Nobunaga only has a En-range of 4 m (which is of great use for his battousai style of fighting), it's clear that Zeno wouldn't have an easy time fighting him.
So overall, the size of your nen doesn't determine how strong you are. Though as you saw in their fight Kuroro, Silva and Zeno were indeed on the same powerlevel. They're all toptier.

Yea their movement speed was insane.

Was also amazed bye their attacks even though i didnt see much of it.

And yea Ubogin was also badass, big bang impact was the most destructive attack i seen so far in the series.

If Togashi would decide to do a Hisoka spin-off and drop HxH, would that comfort you and to which extent?

It wouldn't comfort me at all since he'd probably drop that shit too once there's some new big game release.

[Emperor Time]

No unless it a Gon spin-off instead.

[uchiha-alia]

Oni, you ask a great question... tbh i would be dissapointed, but i wouldnt go and kill togashi like I would have, i'd just enjoy the spin-off while sending death-threats so togashi continues the proper series.

[Emperor Time]

As long as Gon is the main star of the spin-off then I will be fine with it.

[Nakor]

As long as Gon is the main star of the spin-off then I will be fine with it.

That wouldn't be much different than the current series.

I know but we have to have Gon meet Ging before the series ends in my book.

[Gary]

gon will met ging near the end

[Ennoea]

I know but we have to have Gon meet Ging before the series ends in my book.

That would just be HxH, not a spin off:oh

It would be stupid, tho a few chapters dedicated to GR or Hisoka would be decent.

[The Communist Manifesto]

Decided to read through HxH a second time. Theres a load of stuff I missed, someone called him a woman during the Hunter Exam.

[Ennoea]

I've got a question, what has everyone thought of the last 10 chapters? I personally think Togashi really needs to up the pace. Giving so much chapter time to Ikarugo and especially Werefin was ridiculous especially with a Hiatus coming up, hopefully Togashi will finish atleast one fight by the next ten chapters:S

[uchiha-alia]

well tbh i think the last 10 chapters have been great, and i dont mind the pace as long as he doesnt keep going on his damn hiatus'.
slow pace + hiatus= fuck you togashi.
slow pace + no hiatus = happy uchiha-alia

['REDHAIRED' SHANKS]

I think I was dissatisfied with the last 10 chapters tbh ....

nothing was resolved, the plot got a bit more complicated .... add the fact that the hiatus goes on for 10 weeks, and I get really pissed.

I probably wouldn't have minded the pace if it was coming weekly.

[Zaru]

What I didn't like about the past few chapters was that they centered around characters I don't care about. Sorry, but I don't give a shit about knuckles, shoot and octopus guy :sag

[Oni]

QFT! I really don't think Togashi puts any thought into what he leaves us with between breaks. Nor do I think he gives a damn :P

Other than that, it's a final battle, such a thing always needs to be stretched. :nod

[KLoWn]

Tbh HxH is kinda boring atm.
Im not really looking forward to the next chapter like i do with the other shounen series atm.

Giving so much chapter time to Ikarugo and especially Werefin was ridiculous especially with a Hiatus coming up, hopefully Togashi will finish atleast one fight by the next ten chapters:S

Its funny you ask that, I asked myself the same question right after I finished reading chapter 280

I went back to the manga from chapter 261 and started rereading it, going through it compared the first 10 chaps that we got after haitus (261-270) with the second 10 chaps (271-280) in comparison I feel like we didnt get anything in (271-280) I just dont think togashi was in the mood for writing in the last 10 chapters since I think (261-270) were the most epic chaps ever!

So I just think he couldnt be arsed for the last 10 chapters

And its not just about the pacing, cause the pace was slow in 261-270 but the chapters were quality if you know what I mean.

[Ennoea]

Knuckle and Shoot are secondary characters yet you wouldn't know from the amount of chapters Togashi spent on them both, and Killua should have come in to the fight much earlier.

Ikarugo should get a couple of panels and thats it, what the hell can he even do? Not to mention the panels Togashi wasted on the rearded paranoid freak that is Werefin:sag

[uchiha-alia]

Like i said, im not too bothered at all about what togashis doing with the pace and characters. Yes knuckle, shoot and ikaruga are secondary, and chapters like 280 piss me off (lol waste of panels), but its still not bad. I wouldnt mind these chapters (271-279, not 280) at all if there was no hiatus. WITH hiatus, its shit that the pacing is like it is.

[Starwing]

-.- Nobody would complain if the secondary characters Togashi focused on were Spiders.

Hm... To be honest, I thought the last ten chapters were far too slow. HxH has always been a bit slow, but it really does seem like not much happened. Especially the fight with Yupi. There was so much mind-changing, new strategies w/o any of them being used, and the 'unknown to ______, ______ was actually planning _______' moments.

But I'm reserving judgment since I believe they're all pivotal to the plot. Togashi HAS to let us know the message Palm left, we HAVE to know where the prime minister is, what werefin is doing, etc. While I'm not entirely satisfied with the pacing, I do think Togashi is working on a very, very intricate battle plot-line with 30-odd characters. And we'll need to know all of it at the end.

Because after all, Werefin, Crayfish and the others are just like Zitoh and the other captains, and those have gotten plenty of screen-time. Togashi isn't the type to drop weaker characters just because big players have come into the picture, which may get annoying, but I think that's a good quality in a story-teller.


About Ant goodness... The Ants aren't really evil either, just because they've stopped eating humans. They're a different species so really, why should they have any loyalty to humankind?

About the eight that are helping humans, it's like they've turned vegetarian. Doesn't mean all meat-eaters are evil if we eat fluffy animals...

Like that Ant that removes nen, the girl with the belly. I think they called her Hina. She doesn't strike me as evil at all. And can we really say Pufu, Pitou and Yupi are bad? They're loyal to their King, have strong senses of duty, honor, self-sacrifice and the whole lot. They're antagonists, but they're not bad.

As for the few betrayals, I'm going to agree with all the posters before. Chimera Ants are a Hive-mind-society. Their very existence is to further the colony, serve their Queen and King. So scientifically, when one queen kills another in the immature stages of a colony, most of the colony's members will switch allegiance to the new queen, and the few loyal to the dead queen will be killed.

Same case here. Most of the power transferred to the King, and there are a few that didn't.


Most epic moments -
That's a hard one. I don't read HxH for epic.

I think Ubo's fight with the Injyuu and Mafia was epic. Strategy, power, everything about it was win.

And the GR invasion of the auction and the requiem. Now THAT was beautiful. *Drools*

[Emperor Time]

I wonder what the missing captains are doing who are the Praying Mantis commander and the Alliagator commander?

[Danchou]

Yeah, I pretty much agree with you. Especially about the epic moments.

The King and his Royal Guards are actually pretty evil. They invaded a country, killing whoever gets in their way and show no regard for human life (except Komugi) by holding the selection. Nef has shown sadistic tendencies (using Kaito as a tool to train the ants), Pufu's ominious aura was enough to retire Novu who knew he'd incorporate any means to extract information from him if he was caught and Yupi.. well this (http://38.106.107.18/Manga/Hunter%20X%20Hunter/Hunter%20X%20Hunter%20266/compressed/12983_273622.jpg) speaks for itself.

not much to argue in there ...

I don't like how anything that is against human kind is termed *evil*.

cuts out the rant on humanity's deeds because of it being off topic.

[Ennoea]

The Ants represent every other species in this world, they want to expand and colonize. And they will not care who they have to kill if they're existence is in danger, they're pretty much like humans in that sense.

As for the GR, they are a peculiar bunch of villains. Unlike most villains they have no actual goals (they don't want to take over the world), they're more like Pirates, they live in the now. They have no moral centre either, they don't understand the difference between good and evil, tho it was pretty funny when Ubo died and Shalnark was asking what Ubo ever did to deserve this:facepalm

[Emperor Time]

Didn't Shalnark join the GR after the GR masscare the Kuruta tribe?

[Gary]

chapter 280 could have been done in a few pages :sag

[Emperor Time]

The gang have some powerhouse beasty characters aswell as some clever ones and its interesting seeing how loyal they are to kuroro. I really want to see more on the formation of the organisation and how it came to be, aswell as how they got to respect kuroro so much (aside from him being very powerful).

I really want to see more on the formation of the organisation and how it came to be, aswell as how they got to respect kuroro so much (aside from him being very powerful).

The GR is an awesome bunch of characters .... true :nod
As for the formation, I think Kuroro got the leadership among the first members and those who came in afterwards had to follow the rules laid down by the first members.

I don't think the members of the Ryodan gave Kuroro the leadership solely because of his strength, though that obviously would have been a big factor tipping the scales in his favor.
Rather, it is the promise of leading this bunch of thieves to greater things ... that actually got him the position of the leader. It is about how he puts the Spiders before his life, when he was hostage ... shows his commitment to the Spiders.
Pakunoda on the other hand, couldn't do what was best for the spiders.

Also, his personality had a part in getting the leadership ... I don't think the members of GR are those who respect others very easily, but Kuroro was able to gain their respect and loyalty.
I don't think the Spiders would have gone to the verge of fighting if it was any other member who was captured. When Ubo died, only Nobunaga was crying and that was because both of them were partners for a long time.
The others were like ... lol he got killed by a n00b :hehee

Kuroro is a class apart from the other spiders ...
*remembers Hisoka/Robin*
and Hisoka of course :sweatdrop

[Emperor Time]

Didn't Pakunoda do that because she was in love with Kuroro?

[Danchou]

Not in love, but she had a strong affection for him.

Kuroro Lucifer founded (http://38.106.107.18/Manga/Hunter%20X%20Hunter/Hunter%20X%20Hunter%20114/compressed/12916_272451.jpg) the Genei Ryodan, so it's quite logical he is it's leader. What I found interesting was that Phinx seemed in command during their appearance in the Ant Arc, while he wasn't one of it's founding members. Shalnark also seems to have a lot of influence though the same applies to him. Though, they're probably just very relaxed about these things. Lulz, Phinx even said Karuto could become the temporary leader if he killed the queen.

Togashi kept hinting at their background in GR arc yet we saw nothing from it.

Welcome:)

And don't worry about the drawing style, even half of us never got used to it but it gets much better later on.

As for the chapters, HxH has been on a loose schedule for a long time, tho recently the manga returns for ten weeks and then Togashi follows with a ten week Hiatus. Were on a hiatus right now.

Thanks :)

Alright, so how long has this Hiatus been going on?

That is true that there were only seven members originally in the GR and not eight.

^^Does it matter who was original or not? Tho I stick to Phinx being an original member.

Anyone wanna discuss pairings?:sag

[Emperor Time]

These are the original members of GR:
1 Kuroro Lucifer
2 Feitan
3 Franklin
4 Machi
5 Nobunaga Hazama
6 Pakunoda
7 Ubogin

Also I support Gon/Palm for some reason. :nuts

[Gary]

you like gon x palm lol

[Emperor Time]

Well because it a pretty unique relationship and she is the girl that Gon has like the most as well.

[Oni]

Imagine Gon in a Shoujo! :laugh

[Emperor Time]

That sounds scary. :(

[Arcanis]

Hi all. I just began reading HxH at 185 and I kinda have to get just to the drawing style.
If you're downloading it from the right places you should only have crappy-art chapters for 185-187, starting from 188 there are volume scanlations which have a much better, retouched, art. :)

I'm just saying, cause not many people know about vol 19 version 2...



PS- Gon is pimp. :pek

[Emperor Time]

He sure is since even Killua isn't a pimp like Gon.

[uchiha-alia]

Gon started pimpin at the age of 6 :pek and no, im not for palm x gon...

as for GR, like i said, and will always say, we need more on them :argh york shin arc wasnt enough to satisfy us.

[Emperor Time]

If not for Gon x Palm then who should Gon end up with instead?

[Starwing]

Wahh... why is it so quiet in here?

Welcome Nami and Thanatos, to the pleasure and pain that is HxH... that sounds a little masochistic but whatever.

Hm... should we start using spoiler tags?


@GoGo, original GR is confirmed. Paku said six members (not counting Kuroro), and they're all shown in a flashback panel.


Genei Ryodan technically doesn't need a leader because, like others have said, they don't have a specific goal. Spiders is a lifestyle, a fellowship, an identity, not a crusade. They're like-minded people that are bound by a common enemy (the entire world) and living the only way they know how. That's part of why Kuroro was unconcerned about his own life. The spiders have a leader because Kuroro is a bloody good one, not out of necessity.

They'll listen to Shalnark's strategies, to Phinx's down-to-earth decisions, to Shizuku upholding Danchou's word, to Machi's instincts, to Franklin's clear logic. It wasn't just Phinx.

About having Karuto as leader if he killed the pseudo-queen, I think that was an act like tossing the coin. I don't think the spiders really care who's in charge when Kuroro is not around. They have practically nothing to lose and nothing to gain, so nothing really matters. They trust each other implicitly, they trust Kuroro, but above all else, they trust themselves. It's the mentality of "whatever this fool leader gets me into, I'm strong enough to get myself out, so it doesn't matter."

I believe as long as there is one spider member left alive, and he or she still believes in what GR stood for, GR will never fall. It's the essence and not the organization, imho.


Pairings? HxH is just about the most un-romantic manga I've ever read. Even OP has more romance, in the secondary characters. Hm... unless you count Meruem and Komogi, or Scuwara and Elisa.

GonxPalm is just too absurd for me to feel anything about it. I like Palm, especially her psycho side, but she is obviously in love with her psycho shishou. And like Gon said, he may have 'experience' but he's just not interested in romance at this point. I don't know, I can see how it'd make a cute picture, but it does nothing for me.

There are no available female characters for Gon and Killua yet. The only plausible partners are each other, and while that gets my yaoi-fangirl side cheering, their relationship is distinctly platonic.

None for Leorio either, though if he chases enough skirts, he may just get lucky enough.

Kurapika is the only one with any interesting choices, though there's been no indication there either. Senritsu and Neon. And yes, I pick Senritsu because Neon is an airhead and useless now that she lost her powers.

Bah... for the main characters, LeorioxKurapika is the only one remotely developed in that direction, and that was entirely for comedy.

As for what I ship in HxH, it would be KurapikaxSenritsu or KuroroxKurapika (because I'm sadistic like that.) The first is incomprehensible to most, the second is impossible. Go figure.

[Gary]

If not for Gon x Palm then who should Gon end up with instead?

no one a pimp doesn't need to :pek

[Emperor Time]

I suppose so and I support KurapikaxSenritsu too.

[Gary]

that pairing sounds good

[Emperor Time]

It sure is since the tribe needs more members than just one.

Okey so i found out that Senritsu is a girl like ewwwwwwwwwwww :notrust

Also Phinx is an awesome dickhead xD

And major ROFL at Kurapica dressing himself like a girl, i knew he was into that stuff :LOS

Man i love this series and especialy the GR :love

[Emperor Time]

Well Senritsu can be the guy in the relationship and Kurapika can be the girl in the relationship.

[Ennoea]

ZOMG looks like the thread has died down for now, I guess Shanks theory about Hiatus making us more active was wrong:sag

Okey so i found out that Senritsu is a girl like ewwwwwwwwwwww

Thats what happens when you mess too much with the devils music, you lose your hair:pek

Also Phinx is an awesome dickhead xD

He looks like my uncle, especially with his tracksuit.

Kurapica loves dressing in to woman and bondage, he's the ultimate fantasy. Now if only Lereo was a a masochist:hehee

Man i love this series and especialy the GR

Welcome to the dark side:kukuku

Not reading anything until chapter 185 :sun

Been anime all the way so far :hmpf

[uchiha-alia]

Man i love this series, especially the GR

did you ever doubt it was going to be awesome :pek i meanm youve got to be awesome to have awesome fans like us :LOS

and yes, genei ryodan pwn.

Also, unlucky for senritsu that she heard one note of the devilds sonata.. i never got that though, in music, there are 7 notes (right?), so one note of the devils sonata will just be the same as that note on its own... unless this devils things is completely nen based and the cursed nen is what affected her... anyways im not sure if senritsu will be making another appearance in the series and though she may, i dont think the devilds onata will play much part (i could be wrong)

[Gary]

Imagine Gon in a Shoujo! :laugh

sounds scary :(

[Oni]

sounds scary :(

Now imagine Palm: "Gon-kun..."

...

And hopefully now you see why romance and Gon is a no no

[uchiha-alia]

you people are posting slow, this thread has lost its activity lately...

however...

hey people X3
Ive just got off the phone with togashi, Ive agreed that i wont kill him if he plans to complete the series :pek Mind you, he wasnt happy when Robin (hisoka:awesome) went to him with the gun, but then again, he was too lazy to tell me that.

3751 posts until HXH is back running :LOS (lol if i get this right on)

just as planned. :LOS (http://forums.narutofan.com/showpost.php?p=16059565&postcount=12282)

and yes, this post was nessecary :LOS

[Gary]

yes we needed that post

[Ennoea]

Gon in a shoujo? I think I'd like some Bathouse scenes:shifty

That is why she looks the way she does right? Atleast it caused her arm to be fucked up.

lol i bet youy would love it

[Ennoea]

She was probably a hot manga chick before listening to the devils sonata, shame:(

lol i bet youy would love it

I'd actually love to see GR bathouse scene:wtf

And KLoWn finally read alot of SAO, man its fucking awesome. Tho I have a problem with Chun, she's too fanservicey (I know its not a real world), she should kick Mensu's ass.

[Emperor Time]

I agree that she was probably really hot beforehand.

[AbnormallyNormal]

let's see. i think from chapters 281 to 290.... we will find:

death of yupi
death of morau
palm comes back
mr octopus survives
pitou and gon dont know
komugi dont know
king vs netero starts
thats all

[Emperor Time]

I doubt that much will happen in only ten chapters and does the Octopus still have his flea gun ability or did he lose it?

[AbnormallyNormal]

flea gun was only from that body so he lost it

['REDHAIRED' SHANKS]

@CMgogo - yeah SAO is awesome ... but I don't think Sando can kick Munsu's ass. Guess you've not come that far.

Well, won't we love it if there were so much action X3 X3 X3

[Ennoea]

But he's such an ass to her, she deserves better, same with Ban-jo, poor guy gets treated so badly:scry

let's see. i think from chapters 281 to 290.... we will find:

My prediciton:

Knuckle lands another punch on Yuppi
Now a kick
Now a rock bottom on Yuppi
Ikarugo runs in a hall
Knuckle kicks Yuppi
Knuckle now headbutts Yuppi
Pufu escapes
Yuppi bitch slaps Knuckle
Potclean comes to the rescue:vegetant
Netero v King but Hiatus ruins everything:arg

Looks like a good ten weeks there:iria

[Oni]

I actually doubt we'll see Netero fighting... it is a bit more likely someone else (Gon?) comes in between and Netero will be his geezer self like "you fight him, I'll watch".

[Ennoea]

King is Netero's prey, he's been bulking up especially to fight Meruem, I doubt anyone's gonna come between them (especially Gon:lmao).

[hgfdsahjkl]

ah i want to see killua god speed may be he will use it on Yuppi

['REDHAIRED' SHANKS]

I wanna see some good action ...

I don't give a damn about who is doing the kicking :pek

[Gary]

same here :awesome

As long as it not Pufu

I corrected your mistake:LOS

['REDHAIRED' SHANKS]

do you think pufu will be fighting ??

:lmao

he will run off and join a troop of gay ballad dancers

[Gary]

Hi I've been lurking folks <3 Playing too much FF11 to actually update myself on HXH.
What's the countdown?
Hisoka needs to add one to her spoiler.


Anyways...

I can't look at Ikarugo without thinking of Tentacle porn :argh
A sign I need to be outside.

Mattaaaru X3 X3 X3 ... we missed you <3 <3

We need our HxH fix naaaaaaaaao :cry :cry

I think we have nine more weeks of agony left :scry

and you are not the only one who is not updating self with HxH :pek

[Zaru]

Nine more weeks? Jesus.

Let's ease the pain with this wallpaper-sized version of an image I showed you guys once already

[NeBy]

So, how are things here?

Been a while, after I got so much neg rep. :-(

I guess the same could be said of Oversoul.

Well...and hxh is out of the picture (pun intended) for nine weeks too, of course.

As an aside: I finished watching D. Gray-man (former suggestion on this thread). It was ok, but nothing special. Kinda like a variant of Bleach, actually. The second chapter was the most funny, I thought. :-)

anyway...other suggestions? (I get a bit bored.)

I'm still thinking of making my own hxh amv youtube flick, but currently I'm busy installing a new combo, so it might take a while, still.

See you guys later!

[Mukuro]

These nine weeks are gonna be killer.

[Danchou]

It's 8 weeks now, not 9, but yeah its too fucking long:arg

The Anime's not very good but the manga's decent. Um I don't know you could try Baki the Grappler or Ultra Red, they're both fighting manga's and really good ones at that. If its shonen try Kekkaishi, it takes a while to get started but its really good.

[hgfdsahjkl]

i think D. Gray-man anime since ep 56 is one of the best i used to hate it
i suggest you all must watch sword of the stranger
may be the best action you will ever see

[Zaoldyeck]

true, d gray man anime has been great lately...

['REDHAIRED' SHANKS]

Lets get back on to HxH people X3 X3 X3

Started rereading HxH from Vol. 18 .... boy does the art look really crappy :sweatdrop

Kaito had to find Ging for his final task, wonder whom Gon and Killua will have to find. I guess finding Ging himself will be difficult enough for Gon.

Wonder who Killua will be after

[Ennoea]

They should have them find Osama Bin Laden:hehee

[Gary]

yes togashi art can be good or bad

[NeBy]

For the purpose of passing the time during the hxh hiatus (and for repwhoring smile-big) I searched for another AMV on youtube, which wasn't with the typical pop-music. I found a pretty good one of Hisoka vs. Gon. Enjoy!

That a great picture of the 13 original members of the GR.

[Gary]

good video except i don't like how hisoka looks in the anime -[

[Emperor Time]

I agree that there is something off to Hisoka in the Anime.

[Gary]

yeah i say it is his hair =/

[AbnormallyNormal]

what are the powers of that sassy pink haired girl in the GENEI ?

i like her 'tude

shalnark is the awesomeest though

[Emperor Time]

Her name is Machi and Machi transforms her aura into thin wispy-long threads in which she uses in a variety of ways, including seaming together old wounds to heal them, repairing back dislodged limbs (like what she did for Hisoka), and forming a noose that can strangle enemies with a tug. Her thread's strength is inversely proportional to the length. The longer the thread she makes, the easier it is to break. :amuse

[AbnormallyNormal]

wow so exactly the same powers as jolyne kujo from part 6 of JJBA. interesting

[Emperor Time]

It true that both are very similar in ability.
