Hunter x Hunter

[hgfdsahjkl]

hisoka number 1
but i agree Danchou number 2

kurapica has the coolest weapon and great character designation + awesome personaltly

the truth :pek

[Hisoka]

i think he is just stuck on how to resolve the fights. he made the ants too strong and gave morau a huge disadvantage.

That is the only possible answer to all these haituses and everything, but even if he knew that the ants are too strong, why did he made Zeno leave?

[hgfdsahjkl]

i think he is just stuck on how to resolve the fights. he made the ants too strong and gave morau a huge disadvantage.

togashi isnt stucked
he knows exactly what he is doing
this slow pace helped to give depth to the characters of the ants
i said before this arc may be the most complicated one but togashi knows what he is doing

look at pitou ability(from how long togashi showed it to us and one of the most important devices in this arc) and the way by which our hunters entered the castle it helped to prevent gon vs pitou which was going to end by pitou win 100% sure

togashi planned everything from the start

[hgfdsahjkl]

really all of you have been reading HxH
and still think togashi is some kind of amatur who doesnt know what he is doing

and yes he made zeno leave because he knows what he is doing

[Hibari Kyoya]

i think he is just stuck on how to resolve the fights. he made the ants too strong and gave morau a huge disadvantage.

lol Morau is so dead

[hgfdsahjkl]

lol Morau is so dead

i think that too :cry

[Freija]

Next chapter = filler.

[PhlegmMaster]

lol Morau is so dead

The only reason I think Morau has a chance is that you're so obviously right.

[uchiha-alia]

lols I was actually talking about your sig XD



More sushi it will be :yell

king x netero wont happen till i am alive =(

Robin. Stop making me wanting to kill you :awesome

RIP Morau.

Hisoka > Danchou :LOS (lol lets not start this again: the answer was clear)

and I for one am able to endure ONE more chapter of fail filler under the condition that for the rest of the chapters he focuses on epic fights and hopefully us being able to see some Netero V Meruem (EPIC PWNAGE) without having to kill Robin (:lmao)

[Freija]

The only reason I think Morau has a chance is that you're so obviously right.

Morau had a chance... before he entered the "castle"

[Hisoka]

Robin. Stop making me wanting to kill you :awesome

lols I call it a duel :pek

and yeah I would be alright, if the next filler chapter concludes all the fodder's fights and no more hide and seek going on, but i doubt that will happen

Morau had a chance... before he entered the "castle"

:lmao yeah true

[Freija]

Well it is, he had like what, 40% of his full power entering? Then he made that smoke circle, taking maybe 3% and constantly keeping it up ?

[Nakor]

togashi isnt stucked
he knows exactly what he is doing
this slow pace helped to give depth to the characters of the ants
i said before this arc may be the most complicated one but togashi knows what he is doing

togashi planned everything from the start

all of the fights look like they will end with the ants winning. only netero has a chance now. even knuckle's fully charged punch didn't do shit to yupi, so hows he supposed to win? hakoware is the only chance, and yet the interest seems to be piling up slowly.

[Freija]

The interest increases the more the higher the loan.


every what 10 seconds the interest increases, it'll take a much higher pace soon after those punches.

[Danchou]

That is the only possible answer to all these haituses and everything, but even if he knew that the ants are too strong, why did he made Zeno leave?Makes you think what Zeno was thinking leaving Killua to square off against a monster like Pitou. I mean it would've been as good as certain that they'd die.

[uchiha-alia]

the ONLY chance to beat Yupi is hakoware, make no mistake there, and thats how he WILL get beat. Pufu i believe Novu may still come in (looking less and less likely), if not, its either Pufu's win or morau sacrificing himself to defeat Pufu. Nef, well we dont know. Im not really thinking that Kaito will somehow get 'revived', it may happen, but if not? Gon V pitou is easily a Pitou slaughtering of Gon, unless the Snot-kun aspect that saved Gon the First time can do so again. On the topic of Snot-kun (lol komugi), she will DEFINITELY play a big part in Meruem's demise, as might Palm (saved by squidfail), netero might or might not die against Meruem.

and so- the ant arc finishes :zaru

[Freija]

Makes you think what Zeno was thinking leaving Killua to square off against a monster like Pitou. I mean it would've been as good as certain that they'd die.

He sensed Killua's GAR and thought "He'll do it"

[Hisoka]

I see us having the same discussion a year from now :lmao

[uchiha-alia]

lol, i see my predictions coming true in about 15 chapters, so yeah... about 5 years :edu

He sensed Killua's GAR and thought "He'll do it"

:gar

[Jicksy]

He sensed Killua's GAR and thought "He'll do it"
so tru :pleased

killua ownage in chap 281 showed us some awesome things to come with his nen ability :awesome

[Freija]

Please, that's just him warming up :pek

[Danchou]

He sensed Killua's GAR and thought "He'll do it"I think he transforms his aura to GAR instead of electricity. :amazed

[Jicksy]

which is why i said, still awesome things to come :pek. he's only warming up :pleased

[Freija]

I think he transforms his aura to GAR instead of electricity. :amazed

Isn't that what he was doing ? :argh

[Danchou]

So, what happened to that awesome new sig of yours gixa. :pek

Actually, I like the one you have now. Don't change it unless you have one with Kurapica :zaru.

Isn't that what he was doing ? :arghNow wonder Yupi got overwhelmed. He is mere chuunin level GAR! :argh

[blazingshadow]

Well it is, he had like what, 40% of his full power entering? Then he made that smoke circle, taking maybe 3% and constantly keeping it up ?his only job was to take out one of the king's royal guards out of the equation so netero and zeno could have a chance at beating the king. it doesn't matter if morau dies as long as pufu stays inside the smoke cage for most of the king's fight.

Makes you think what Zeno was thinking leaving Killua to square off against a monster like Pitou.he knew that killua was paired with gon and that the objective was not to kill pitou but at least keep him occupied even if they have to sacrifice their lives. if anything he knew that killua's job was the easiest since his dragon dive actually did killua's job for him.

[Danchou]

I don't think he was aware of their current powers. Could be that he thought him being able to remove the needle says enough about his strength.

[Jicksy]

So, what happened to that awesome new sig of yours gixa. :pek

its getting made as we speak :edu

killua coming bk for round 2 with knuckle is a must combi :pek
ill be looking forward to some combo manouver

[Hisoka]

but isnt pufu already coming out of the smoke screen?

well maybe I am wrong need to go and look at it again.

no one knows
because it is hunter x hunter
even netero i see his chance is less than 30 %
togashi didnt go the easy way by making our heros go SS2 or arrival of stronger people to help them
you cant make something complicted as this arc with out planning it out
so lets wait and see togashi's magic

[Hype]

You know what I miss evil eyes Killua I aint seen that for ages :(


http://i38.tinypic.com/2mrcwtt.jpg

[hgfdsahjkl]

what about kurapica :argh

but me too miss evil eyes Killua :cry
and hisoka :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry

i want hisoka the most :cry

[uchiha-alia]

You know what I miss evil eyes Killua I aint seen that for ages :(

You have reason to be afraid :LOS even Kurapica can do the evil eyes:
which is more evil :gar?
http://img46.onemanga.com/mangas/00000078/00000101/12.jpg

Still, its very GAR when Killua goes all assassin mode, like he doesnt give a fuck, grabs your heart like its nothing, then squishes it in his hand :killua (DAMN WE NEED AN EPIC EMOTE)

[hgfdsahjkl]

i want to see some
kurapica vs killua

[Hype]

Just realised the anime removed the knife. Its not as though his nails are bloody cotton candy

[Danchou]

Ah, so badass. I love, i like it.

I want a Ryodan flashback. This manga needed more Ubo. And Pakunoda. :LOS

[hgfdsahjkl]

i think in anime it was even more gory
and more badass than a knife

[Jon Snow]

Women like Kurapika is nothing on my manly Pokkuru :pek

[Danchou]

Pokkuro looked like a sick person who wasn't taking his medication.

[Jon Snow]

Pokkuru made Kurapika so mad with a few words he peed himself.

[uchiha-alia]

@Slips and hgfdsahjkl: lol yeah with his GODDAMN NAILS on the guys neck. WATCH OUT KILLUAS OUT TO SCRATCH YOU :WOW

:lmao

Also, yeah Reckoner, OF COURSE we need Ryodan flashbacks, anything to do with Ryodan (except Karuto) is basically enough win for me, though i dont think theyll get any more coverage in the ant arc, so we're gonna have to wait until this arc finishes if this arc ever finishes :(

[Jicksy]

my new set isn't as epic as the last... but it'll do =/

i think hisoka's eyes are much better :pleased 'cos he uses 'em when he's excited :awesome

hanzo made pokkuru cry

this is the Killua we all know and love.

Seriously, hes just gone a whole new level ahead of Gon. Its looking more and more likely that togashi is gonna give Gon a new ability just so he can somewhat catch up.

[Jicksy]

it was on the zeppelin balloon when they was in the hunter exam and gon was trying to get the ball from netero lol

[Hisoka]

[Jon Snow]

I'm not here for your fangirlish enjoyment.

Oh, and Kurapika wants to be a boy :LOS

[blazingshadow]

But even keeping them occupied should prove difficult with their level of power. I don't think he was aware of their current powers. Could be that he thought him being able to remove the needle says enough about his strength.they are hunters and hunters are required to do challenging things like that. do you think that gon and killua or most hunters have had it easy until now? being a hunter is a tough job in it's very nature

but isnt pufu already coming out of the smoke screen?

well maybe I am wrong need to go and look at it again.
maybe he is but it's not like smoke pipe guy knows that.

[Freija]

Lol, seeing that Killua picture and reading what he says makes me realize how overconfident he was :lmao

[Jon Snow]

Someone provide me a map of NGL.

[Ex Cathedra]

^^Killua is the shit.

I'm so glad HxH is back. It's written with an omnicient narrator, which is really rare in manga. I absolutely love that! Plus Togashi is very analytical about how the character interactions take place, and that gives it a different feel from any other manga out there.

I imagine that he sees eveything in a very scientific, calculable manner in the worlds he creates. HxH is like this far more than YuYu Hakusho, and I think it's a successful addition to his repertoir as a mangaka.

[Freija]

He probably has contact with many others who help him write all the physical parts and stuff as he's stated himself he's not well learned.

[Hisoka]

[hgfdsahjkl]

lol he said his english is bad that is all

[Mat®icha]

out of boredom i started to read some old chapters. i especially like the arc where headless spider team (forgot their name:facepalm) annihilates ant queen kingdom/whatever. i never get bored of that arc. and got carried away and ended up to read like 50 chaps yesterday. http://www.onemanga.com/Hunter_X_Hunter/225/01/

[hgfdsahjkl]

magic of HxH

[Ex Cathedra]

Yes. Magic of HxH. I too recently spent an afternoon re-reading 60+ chapters of the manga.

Before I post about the most recent chapters, is it standard in this thread to put spoiler wraps around such commentary? Or is it assumed that if you're reading this thread, you're an uber-fan and therefor, have already read CH 282 5+ times?

[hgfdsahjkl]

i think everyone will agree :)
if the chapter is translated you can freely talk about it :)

by the way all the people here are hardcore stuff as HxH is conserned :pek

and you better be a hisoka fan :pek

[uchiha-alia]

MatRicha, theyre called the 'GENEI RYODAN' (lol how you forgot such an epic groups name is beyond me :awesome), and yes, its awesome how they raid Meteor City just for the lulz :LOS

I (very recently) went through half of Hunter X Hunter (well, 60 chapters, but whatever, they were all the york shin arc), and damn, the york shin arc is fucking epic. Apart from that, my 'secondary mission' was to look for the page with Danchou's ability restrictions on, and yeah, it took me ages, but i found it :awesome

Not really, Hisoka < Danchou, this is fact.

[hgfdsahjkl]

your subconsious made you write hisoka first cuz deep down you know hisoka is better
fact

[Ex Cathedra]

Hisoka is a badass.
I miss Kurapica though. He's been mia for a long time.

[Oversoul]

When I come to think of it - what´s the actual translation of Genei Ryodan?

The German one is "Illusionists" which totally, totally sucks.

[Freija]

your subconsious made you write hisoka first cuz deep down you know hisoka is better
fact

It was intentional because I tried to trap you.


Illusion Brigade or something, Genei is a mirage or something amongst those lines if I don't remember wrong (which may be likely)

[hgfdsahjkl]

Illusionists sounds badass for me

[Oversoul]

Illusionists sounds badass for me

Not as badass as Genei Ryodan - and it doesn´t make sense whatsoever ... why Illusionists? They are no friggin Mindfreaks or Criss Angels. ..

[Freija]

They cover up their crimes so good it looks like it never happened, like they were never there ?

[Oversoul]

Why are they known throughout the world then ...

[Freija]

Everyone knows they exist, just not who they are.

Obviously people get away alive, the boss can't kill the victims he steals abilities from etc.

[hgfdsahjkl]

only their name is known
you know they are out there but you cant catch them
illusion

[Oversoul]

Makes sense to me

I still stick to Genei Ryodan, though

[Freija]

Yeah, Spamei Ryo... Genei Ryodan :LOS

[uchiha-alia]

lol spamei ryodan :LOS
Genei Ryodan sounds the best though :LOS

Not really, Hisoka < Danchou, this is fact.

Unfortunately for you, i did some digging up- wondering when my first post in this thread was (turned out it was page 39), but i think quoting you from a year back is good :zaru

D: i want both to be alive, T_T Hisoka rocks mah world, and Kuroro is coolio T_T oh if i had to chose i'd say Hisoka

:awesome, your own words (lol in b4 deleted post)

[Freija]

Aye, indeed my words... However you do realize that more than I have access to my user :zaru

So do I. It starts with a P and ends in okkuru :LOS

And it's Phantom Brigade ignorant fools.

I wish I could say Togashi would make up for last chapter's horrible Ikarugo filler but chances are it will plague the next one. :argh

Fucking Togashi. :arg

[Tachikoma]

Nico already warned me off the chapter :edu

I feel for you Kev :(

What banning talk is this? :hehee

[Hisoka]

Morau chap is up next in my opinion :LOS

[NeBy]

and your sig is way too big

but back to topicness

predictions for the next chapter?

1. Another sushi session

2. Yupi carries on rampaginng till he finds killua

3. Pituo gets hot with gon x kumugi

4. Palm appears out of nowhere with nova

5. Morau gets his assed kicked by pufu

6. The famous king x Netero (yeah keep on dreaming)

7. Oh and I almost forgot, Knuckle finds Shoot's corpse session

which will it be?

1. Likely (at least for the next chapter)

2. Unlikely

3. I wish!!:hearts :drool But extremely unlikely. Pitou and Gon will be sitting aside eachother, looking in eachothers' eyes for the next hour...

4. Likely that at least one of the two will appear, eventually. Maybe the 'shoot-dissapearance' has already something to do with it.

5. Morau will probably die :( Think it's still a bit early he dies in the very near future, though. I think once Poofu is free of the smokejail (which he pretty much is) his cocoon wil explode or something. But unseen by us or Poofu, maybe Morau will be saved by Nova. He'll still probably die at the end of the ant-arc, though.

6. It will come, but much later. But...kinda difficult to see how the old geezer would win. His chances are 30% at most, unless he's getting help from some other kick-ass nen-fighter, or he sets some other devious trap. That said...the king will *have* to die sooner or later (or have a huge change of mind), because otherwise, after he's eaten Netero's nen, I can't imagine any hunter being able to stop him. Which would mean destruction of the world and no more wrapping up all the loose ends... That would be even worse than the YYH ending...:(

7. No corpse yet, I think.


Makes you think what Zeno was thinking leaving Killua to square off against a monster like Pitou. I mean it would've been as good as certain that they'd die.

Maybe it's just family-business. You know, the 'make your kids strong and street-wise be placing them in the cruel world' - and if they perish they were to weak anyway. Though, somehow, they do seem to care about eachother, even if there's much hate. Guess it's a typical love-hate thing. Zeno might have thought; well, if he's old enough to run away from home and get rid of the needle, he has to be able to fend for himself. At a certain moment, you have to let loose your kids...and I guess in an assassins' family like the Zoaldyeks, that's pretty soon. :amuse

the ONLY chance to beat Yupi is hakoware, make no mistake there, and thats how he WILL get beat. Pufu i believe Novu may still come in (looking less and less likely), if not, its either Pufu's win or morau sacrificing himself to defeat Pufu. Nef, well we dont know. Im not really thinking that Kaito will somehow get 'revived', it may happen, but if not? Gon V pitou is easily a Pitou slaughtering of Gon, unless the Snot-kun aspect that saved Gon the First time can do so again. On the topic of Snot-kun (lol komugi), she will DEFINITELY play a big part in Meruem's demise, as might Palm (saved by squidfail), netero might or might not die against Meruem.

and so- the ant arc finishes

That's pretty much what I said. The thing with Gon and Pitou can only remain in balance as long as snot-girl is the weak link for Pitou. Once healed, she either will have to threaten to kill herself to keep Pitou in check, or somebody else (like Killua) will have to threaten to kill her.

Because, let's face it, even with all her arms and legs broken, she could still rape Gon the moment she thinks there is no need for her to back down anymore.

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet Killuaaaaaaaaaaaaa


Yes...come to think of it, it was FAR less gory in the anime, that scene. You just saw him looking at some dude who bothered him,k and than you see him on the ground...not knowing if he's dead or unconscious. There was no clear depiction of skulls being slashed in two, anyway.

It's a bit pity, but I guess they had no choice. As a whole, the anime adaptation is excellent, though.

i think everyone will agree :)
if the chapter is translated you can freely talk about it :)

by the way all the people here are hardcore stuff as HxH is concerned :pek

and you better be a hisoka fan


Where are the Pitou fans? :confused She's clearly the hottest babe in the whole of hxh. And yes, that holds true even if she were a boy.

And about hardcore-fan: I'm not! I consider myself to be a noob who knows hardly anything about hxh!! :P

i said it before
i remember Freija saying he prefers hisoka
the one who prefers dancho is killua using freija's name

i knew you prefer hisoka freija

dont worry killua wont troll me again

Luckily, there is only one Pokkurufapping-fan. I don't think I could handle two in this thread...

Got dammit, read my post explaining that

6. It will come, but much later. But...kinda difficult to see how the old geezer would win.

Next chapter: Palm smexs Shoots dead body:zaru

[Ex Cathedra]

wow. no love for Ikarugo. I really liked last chapter. It was intense to me. THe great thing about the writin is that you realize that just because you've seen uber fights, with ultra special moves and misc. hax, it doesn't change the fact that everything is relative. A good fight is a good fight.

Take, for example, DBZ. Everyone and their mother knows that two of the greatest fights in the whole series are Goku vs. Freeza round 1 on Namek, and Goku vs Vegeta Round 2 on Namek.

Yet both of these fights are incomparable as far the strength of the characters is concerned, since everyone gets sick powerups as the series goes on.

It's the same principle in 282. Ikarugo may not be on Gon or Killua's level, but for him in particular, this fight is an amazing matchup that is testing all of his will, determination, strength, and intellect. It's a battle of minds right now, and that shit is awesome to read (After all, isn't that why everyone loves Death Note?).

Someone called the last chapter filler in another thread (manga of the month). I defy you to explain how his mission to find Palm is filler. It's a necessary part of the plot and whether you like it or not, Ikarugo has been given an important mission, even to Gon (especially...GONxPalm fc, anyone?)!

I applaud Togashi's willingness to piss off all the fanboys in order to satisfy his desire for stellar character development, and to move the plot along without hax, plot no jutsu, or loopholes. Everything is well explained and necessary in order for Ikarugo to accomplish the important task that was given to him.

As an aside, I will point out that Togashi is building Ikarugo up to be the MacGuyver of the series. Everyone knows Macguyver >>>>>:pwned Batman w/prep time + Chuck Norris Prime.

Behold:http://img46.onemanga.com/mangas/00000078/000084652/16.jpg

282 was a great chapter and I'll stand up for Ikarugo and character development any day of the week.

[uchiha-alia]

I applaud Togashi's willingness to piss off all the fanboys in order to satisfy his desire for stellar character development

we are the fans, thus we're getting pissed off THUS WERE NOT HAPPY :zaru

tbh, we've all said that the octopus chapter was a necessary chapter, and to be honest, for me, it was quite good in that he gave the octopus depth and didnt just write this off (though off-panel would have been more appreciated). What pisses us off is the fact that we're only getting TEN CHAPTERS, and we have so much epic fights going on, and we still get bullshit that is borderline filler.

so we're not too happy :awesome

Am I the only one who noticed Ikarugo's look at the bottle of alcohol :lmao he's getting drunk.

tbh, we've all said that the octopus chapter was a necessary chapter, and to be honest, for me, it was quite good in that he gave the octopus depth and didnt just write this off (though off-panel would have been more appreciated). What pisses us off is the fact that we're only getting TEN CHAPTERS, and we have so much epic fights going on, and we still get bullshit that is borderline filler.

so we're not too happy :awesome

Maybe pissing his fans off is the way for Togashi to show his love for us. In that case, we're being über-loved. :oh

PS. Me too defended the lil octosquid! :pek


Edit: off-topic; am I right in assuming there are people here whom are fans of Erikson ('The malazin Empire')? Did you guys read all the books, including Blood Follows and the rest of the series with Bauchelain and Korbal? I was wondering if it's worth its money, because, I hugely like the style, but 20 pounds seems a lot, for a relatively thin book (compared to the malazin-series).

[Ennoea]

20 quid for a single book? Simply ridiculous eh:quite

[Freija]

Nah, he got wasted prior to doing this stunt, he was too chicken.

[Ennoea]

I want some Pitou!!!

[Jon Snow]

I want Meruem to confirm him being Pokkuru reborn.

[Freija]

Seriously man, stop the Pokkuru, it's really annoying.

[Jon Snow]

Well, I might have to stop this weekend. I made a deal with Hisoka :pek

[Freija]

Thank you Hisoka.

[Jon Snow]

Oh, don't feel discouraged. If I "do" something, Pokkuru lives :LOS

[Danchou]

283 spoilers are out, but unverified. It seems they're about

Ikarago-Brovuda (being concluded) and in the end there is some Morau-Pufu stuff going on.

[Jon Snow]

I approve of those spoilers.

[Ennoea]

A little disappointed but glad the sushi fight is over, and looks like pufu and Marou's fight is next, let see who wins, the arsonist or the sissy butterfly:LOS

[Freija]

I like the spoilers, seems like the fight was summing up

[NeBy]

20 quid for a single book? Simply ridiculous eh:quite
Well, his 'Malazin empire' series *is* very good, and worth the 15 pound. But his other with Korbal&co is only indirectly related to the malazin story, and is less than 1/3 of the 800-900 pages of his normal books are - while it costs more. I don't get the logic behind that, but hey...

I just seemed to remember there were othezr guys here who read the series, and I was wondering if maybe they read it, and if it's worth the 20 quid.

I want some Pitou!!!

:glomp :hug

As I said:

but back to topicness

predictions for the next chapter?

1. Another sushi session

which will it be?

1. Likely (at least for the next chapter)

I like the spoilers, seems like the fight was summing up

And those spoilers are...where?

Nex gear is ur friend my friend:quite

Why always in nexgear? Are we a second-hand-rated hxh forum? :(

We never seem to have any 'first' spoilers/scanlations/chapters...

[Freija]

Because NexGear scanlated HxH prior to NF's existance... or this NF's at least

[Hisoka]

Why always in nexgear? Are we a second-hand-rated hxh forum? :(

We never seem to have any 'first' spoilers/scanlations/chapters...

because nexgear has a whole section dedicated to HxH and most japanese speaking fans are there, and most people who know where to look for spoilers

and also because of what Freija said

You're right NeBy, in that he is consistent :LOS

[Jon Snow]

Am I seriously the only one recommending the manga over anime?

[Freija]

I have few reasons for picking the anime in the start... but they are good reasons.

[Jon Snow]

There's just those things the anime can't capture, like Kurapika when that guy has a gun towards him.

The voiceacting is top-notch with a good soundtrack to boot, but the censoring pisses me off D:

[uchiha-alia]

I have never recommended any over the other, each have their own awesome qualities. For me, the anime is magical since it is how i first got to know HXH, however, there are some things not included in it (/lol edited). the anime is something you dont want to mss though, so probably you should start with it, then go on to read the manga after youve finished watching all the OVA's

[Jicksy]

i too recommend watching the anime 1st, you can always read the manga from the beginning afterwards :nod

[Ennoea]

Has anyone here read Zetman? Im currently reading it but its boring me to death, does it get better?

[Teach]

Any good subber on HxH, and decently seeded torrent? Thanks mang.

[uchiha-alia]

The whole series is easy to get a hold of on popular streaming sites if thats how you wanna watch it (i think one veoh user has the whole thing)

if you want torrents:

[Mat®icha]

just stick to it. i gues you're at kouga (blond pussy guy) arc, it gets real interesting after it's over.

ontopic: i hope spoilers are true, time to move on.

[Black Swan]

Kinda dissapointed that the octupus was featured this chapter and relieved that his fight is finished at the same time.

Morau imo is facing the worst kinda opponent, someone who can trap him in a mind game, using one of his greatest weapons against him. IMO Gon would be a great natural opponent for pufu b/c he is simple minded and straight foward, no overthinking.

[Freija]

Well, it would make it easier for Pufu as Gon doesn't think things through and he's a plotter.

[Jicksy]

pufu's ability could possibly used against himself... just dont know how yet :zaru

[Freija]

We'll see I suppose.

[Jon Snow]

hai guyz i should be writing an essay right about now since we only have 3 hours on it but HxH calls

sup?

[Freija]

We're discussing how Gon vs Pufu would go.

[Jon Snow]

I reckon Gon isn't capable of denting any of the Royal Guards, but they might have different affinities.

Yupi seems like a tank
Nef seems like a cross-dressing balance
Pufu seems like a pussy and weak

A Janken Guu might do the trick, who knows. We'll never know, until some damage is inflicted on him.

[Freija]

They're saying because Pufu is a smart calculating fighter Gon is the best opponent cause he's simpleminded, but I think that is wrong because it would cause him to get trapped more often.

[Hisoka]

spoiler pics are out

refer to my sig link

[Freija]

*clicks*

It seems like Pufu got away without harm... or well he lost his wings.

[Ennoea]

Unlucky ofr Morau, Pufuf is probably the only one who could have escaped the jail.

Oh and Pitou solos nearly all the hunters that attacked the palace, well except Netero. Anyway Gon really would be wiped in a sec if he fought Pitou and judging by the current events I wouldn't expect them to fight properly.

[Freija]

I don't know really, We've yet to see "Pissed off Gon" fight

[Hisoka]

Dont count on it

I'd say 99% Gon wont fight Pitou

and odds on Netero actually fighting Meurem is 50 50 to me

[Ennoea]

If we don't get some sort of brawl with Netero i'll be seriously pissed:bang

[Freija]

Pitou probably will survive, but sadly enough Meruem will HAVE to die for this to end.

[Ennoea]

I laugh if Netero takes Meruem to his home turf and there him and his OAP friends beat the shit out of him.

Netero should use pesticides to kill Meruem:lmao

[Freija]

:lmao Imagine him taking up bug spray and trying it out.

[Ennoea]

They really want in there unprepared, all they needed was some insect repellent

..and a ball of thread for Pitou:zaru

8000 post, I've officially spent too much time on this forum:apathy

[Freija]

You had officially spent too much time at 1000

[Ennoea]

8,000 posts and Im still Ascendant, maybe I should start rep whoring or something?:oh

Fair enough my posting died in the last year but fuck me you bloody post whore :mad

8,000 posts and Im still Ascendant, maybe I should start rep whoring or something?:oh

Susan had about 3k and dominates us all

I had to upload every anime under the sun to crawl up to npu its hard work :(

Susano-O <3

He dominated us when he still had like 100 posts :lmao

to be fair though he got all that rep because GB, Spambu and Spamasuki all repped him (VERY LEGIT) like 5 times for every Harsh Tale chapter :lmao

He was NPU before I was Transcendant

And the rate I gained rep when rep whoring was at his pace really :argh now exclude all my bans and I'd be Susano-O / RK level

Not to mention peK and Blue both would have about the same about as Sus by now if they didn't reset their rep all the time.




Now on-topic, where the hell is Netero... Really ?

I mean he can't have gone too far away, but yet no one of them can feel the kings presence.

[Ennoea]

Blenderites don't count, you guys have abnormal amount of reps:arg

[Freija]

Stop speaking about rep!

IMO, every blenderite should get a rep cut (me included) and most FC'ers as well

[Hisoka]

If we don't get some sort of brawl with Netero i'll be seriously pissed:bang

from what I see the story wont resolve very well if they do have a fight, unless Togashi does something out of his writing norm and not being realistic

[Freija]

Well, if he ever wants to finish this manga he can do a YuYuHakusho again, from next chap on, just start like 2 years later and say "Yeah, we won" and start a new arc.

[Ennoea]

Netero took Meruem to a kingdom far far away:LOS

Um most likely some sort of secluded mountain top so they don't kill everyone and everything around them when they fight. I just realised, do we know Netero's hatsu?

I bet its worthers original, a joke for you english people:LOS

[Freija]

We've seen one of his hatsu's, Shiki Cannon or what it was called

[Hisoka]

Well, if he ever wants to finish this manga he can do a YuYuHakusho again, from next chap on, just start like 2 years later and say "Yeah, we won" and start a new arc.

which is what we dont want

so yeah I rather resolve to no fight situation =(

[Ennoea]

I seem to have forgot his hatsu:sag

I don't think that will happen, he's built it up too much.

[Freija]

I'd rather have Netero hatsu him to space.

[Hisoka]

I seem to have forgot his hatsu:sag

I don't think that will happen, he's built it up too much.

I also didnt think Pitou's fight would resolve to pituo begging

and I didnt think he would spend so many chapters on ikaragu, it seems that everything I dont want is going to happen, Netero and Meurem not fighting is what I dont want, but I can see it happening .....

so going by that pattern I am guessing Meurem out smarts himself in the end and turns into a hippy, thinking life is not worth all this fighting & goes back to nature, trying to discover his name:zaru

[Jicksy]

^ i have a bad feeling about that one :facepalm

[Freija]

And am I the only one who's super curious on Shoots situation ?

[Danchou]

Damn, I feel suckerpunched. I thought all the great stuff was finally gonna come when Netero and Zeno came flying in to fight Meruem, but 20 chapters from then we still haven't had even a glimpse.

I'm starting to think about taking a break from all this for a while. At least I won't be that frustrated when the hiatus comes and we've still seen jack. Cause that's what's going to happen at this rate.

[Hisoka]

And am I the only one who's super curious on Shoots situation ?

no I just dont even want to think about that...

my thoughts on that matter is that he thought I cant stretch the Lubster story any longer, I need another stupid side story to put more delay on story developement abit

oh I know I make them chase a dead body! :Zaru

[Freija]

I really hope we get some info on Danchou soon.

[uchiha-alia]

if this arc ever gets finished As soon as this arc is finished, I DEMAND a ryodan related arc, complete with Danchou, LEORIO WHO KNOWS NEN AND IS GAR :gar, kurapica, HISOKA, ZENO, SILVA, and the rest. It will be epic. (FUCK YES HISOKA V KURORO :gar)

We already know PART of Netero's hatsu, we know about hyakushiki kanon. his ultra awesome, extremely quick, unavoidable, and very powerful nen cannon that fired pitou away like 2km in 2 seconds. We know he has other abilities, but dont know what they are. (i remember when morau was talking about him, and said that netero had 'ears from hell', 2 minutes later, netero- who was training on a mountain far far away- texted them and finished it saying: 'from the guys with ears from hell'. so he had heard them. or something like that :iria)

As for the Pitou begging, I know its not what we wanted to see but its the only way it could have gone, Pitou was pumped up to a point she would have ripped gons little head off in a one on one fight. I know you think Togashi injured komugi just so Gon wouldn't fight but I don't think so, he gave so much thought to the sushi fight so I can't even imagine how thought out and utterly amazing Gon/Pitou and meruem/Netero will be. Yes I still have hope, the last chapter was a blip.

And thats the sad truth :( but we still have hope that he can somehow be powerful. The role of the medic is always the role of unimportance and borderline-fodder, but leorio has proved he is more than that, and also proved to have some great physical strength that can be nen-enhanced to make a GAR powerful character. His hatsu is emmision so its probably some emission healing stuff, oh well, lets still keep our hopes up.

YES TOGETHER WE SHALL .....

even with all the breaks

i think naruto usually dont take the first spot for 2 weeks

i am really happy for HxH

also gives a big chance for a new anime

[Hisoka]

well I am happy as well, but didnt think it would take the No.1 again, specially with that week's chapter

its goood to know its still big =3

[hgfdsahjkl]

but this week's chapter has nothing to do with it
vol 26 contains the last 10 chapters

i want to know how many volumes are released for normal series ?

[Danchou]

Wow, that is quite impressive. But also even more reason to give Togashi his way.

[uchiha-alia]

exactly lol, the more power he has (i.e. sales) the more he can get his way at SJ (not like he cant do whatever the fuck he wants anyways- see: 2 years motherfucking hiatus).

#1 two weeks in a row for a manga thats hardly ever out is quite amazing. those japanese sure know their manga :awesome

*see's bleach @ #2

.... or not

lol

[Danchou]

And then they have the nerve to call OP, Naruto and Bleach the shounen trinity. :hmpf

Oh well. Wonder if it'll be in the top 10 next week.

I must say, volume 25 and 26 were also one of the most action packed and important parts of the ant arc.

[Jicksy]

hxh is major popular in japan. when i 1st went to japan i asked a couple ppl who could speak decent enough english which manga they liked best, and the 1st 2 names that came out were slam dunk and hxh :zaru

[hgfdsahjkl]

One of the conditions for his ability to remove curses is that the creature he summons would attach onto himself, and devour both the nen causing the curse and his own, rendering him unable to use nen. The only way to rid himself of the creature is to fulfill the original condition for removing the curse (i.e. he used it to remove the time bomb Genthru placed on him, but the creature would drain his nen until he touches Genthru and say: "I caught the bomber"). Therefore, even if he removes the curse Kurapika placed on Chrollo, he would still be unable to use nen (but could now talk with other members of the Phantom Troupe).

from wikipedia
if that is true so i think we wont have hisoka vs kuroro now :(
but what is the condition kuroro have to fulfill ?

[Hisoka]

damn lol you gotta love Kurapica though :lmao

[hgfdsahjkl]

damn it kurapica :argh
hisoka will be pissed
but strange if it is true no one of us noticed that

[Danchou]

Well, a lot of people noticed that, but it's hard to say what the condition would be to fulfill since Kurapica never made a deactivation rule. It might just be that the condition is fulfilled when he uses nen again or something like that.

Nice find irregardless! ^^

[hgfdsahjkl]

yeah i hope its like that cuz there is no condition
most people talked like we will have the fight for granded it was rarely to find someone who wonder if kuroro will be able to fight

[Danchou]

I just hope he doesn't have such a ugly nenbeast attached to him. It wouldn't suit him.

I think it was either a beast or a devil. I'm guessing it's the last in that case.

[Hisoka]

I doubt he would go with the nen remover.

There must be some other way

[Hibari Kyoya]

Kurapica needs to return :scry

[Ennoea]

Yay no 1 two weeks in a row, now unless the next chapters are epic good luck with getting number 1 again togashit:pek

As for Danchou, I hope the condition involves Kurapica and so GR kidnap him and we've got ourselves a new arc:zaru

[hgfdsahjkl]

yeah and hisoka will kick some GR asses in it :yell

Kurapica v Kuroro v Hisoka, threesome!!:suzuhiko

He could find the chimera ant that removes nen without any restrictions, the one that was part of Hagya's troop and the nen she ate was stored on her belly.

I just looked it up, her name is Hina and she's still alive.

I knew there was another ways to it

and I remember her, when the spoiler pics for that chapter came out we were all wondering if she is pregnant :lmao

[Jon Snow]

Who? Seriously, who?

I don't remember how Hagya looks like either D:

A good idea and a way for GR to come back into the arc. Has almost no chance of happening but good call regardless...

I had never thought about that problem with Kuroro before though. It kind of makes me wish death on Kurapica even though I like him a lot.

In before Reckoner giving you a schooling :hehee

[Ennoea]

That retarded ant that kept worrying about being fat right? Wasn't she in the manga a couple of chapters back with insane amount of pubic hair? Anyway I think you might be on to something there Arcanis, this gives us hope that GR might infiltrate the palace, tho they don't actually know Hina exists.

Anyway I don't understand why folks are worried, isn't the condition something Kuroro has to decide on before? Im sure he'll get his nen back.

[The Faint Smile]

I'm pretty sure it's Kurapica that makes the conditions.

And as I said I'm a Kurapica fan. I'm just a lot more of a Kuroro fan.

[Ennoea]

Okay there must be some condition set by kurapica that can remove the chain of retribution, anyway whatever happens it will involve Kurapica and kidnap:LOS

[NeBy]

I also didnt think Pitou's fight would resolve to pituo begging

and I didnt think he would spend so many chapters on ikaragu, it seems that everything I dont want is going to happen, Netero and Meurem not fighting is what I dont want, but I can see it happening .....

so going by that pattern I am guessing Meurem out smarts himself in the end and turns into a hippy, thinking life is not worth all this fighting & goes back to nature, trying to discover his name:zaru

In that case, for all our sakes', can't you PLEASE not want interesting fights, a superb conclusion to the Pitou/Gon and Netero/king question, a Togashi that makes consistent chapter without hiatuses and soon a new GR arc or something of similar grandeur which takes up all the loose ends? :wink

from wikipedia
if that is true so i think we wont have hisoka vs kuroro now :(
but what is the condition kuroro have to fulfill ?

damn it kurapica :argh
hisoka will be pissed
but strange if it is true no one of us noticed that

I just hope he doesn't have such a ugly nenbeast attached to him. It wouldn't suit him.

I think it was either a beast or a devil. I'm guessing it's the last in that case.

I'm not sure if all this is not based on a wrong interpretation. Another possibility would be, it's the nen-remover which uses the nen-removing technique that gets the nen-beast attached, and who can't use his nen anymore until certain conditions are fulfilled. I think the confusion might have arisen from the fact that the only time we've seen him use it, it was on himself. Therefore, he suffered the same consequences from the conditions placed on his nen-removal (of the bomb). It is logical to assume that's why he had to find bomber to fulfil the original condition to deactivate the bomb, but it's also reasonable to assume that the same would have occurred if he killed the bomber (we've already seen that nen-created objects can't survive the death of their nen-creator, after all).

In that case, Kurapica, nor Kuroro have anything to do with it, on itself. Kuroro will be freed, the nen-beast (or devil, because Kurapica's 'curse' is pretty powerful) will attach himself to the nen-remover - who will probably have a heck of a hard time, seen the fact it's related to the 'strongness' of the nen removed. And it's HIM that will not be able to use any nen, not Kuroro. Then, Kuroro can just (try to) kill Kurapica, and the nen-remover will be freed.

Alternatively, if it's done by condition-breaking, it wouldn't surprise me if the way to 'lift the curse' is to be able to let Kurapica use his jailchain on a non-GR member.

what do you think of that interpretation? :amuse

[Black Leg Sanji]

@Ennoea (Refering to the PM i got :LOS): Faghorn vs Yumichika definetly and the last chapter too some extent. The rest has been decent/good (The fodderbattles was better than i thought outside of the mentioned one and Komas was :awesome) :hmpf

Any hope at all that Togashi will release chapters every 2nd week after the next hiatus? :pek

[The Faint Smile]

I'm pretty sure the beast would attach to the person who needs the nen removed. Hence Kuroro wouldn't be able to use nen at that time...which wouldn't matter.

I'm hoping that removing the nen would just remove the conditions too but I guess that's not the case.

[Hisoka]

Who? Seriously, who?

I don't remember how Hagya looks like either D:

[Ennoea]

@BLS: They were all retarded fights:P

And im with Faint smile on this, the beast will attach on to the user that has the curse.

[Jon Snow]

So that's Hina? Then who's Hagya?

[Danchou]

The Lion Ant that Morau fought in the underground church. He used to be named Hagya, but he was called Leol after he served the King.

[Ennoea]

Hagya was Leol's name before the queen died, I think:sag

[Freija]

Hmmm that nen removal girl looks like someone.

[Ennoea]

Lol I just realised is the bathtub panel Togashi attempting at some fanservice?:awesome

[Freija]

Unfortunantly he made that girl pregnant with fur :argh

[Ennoea]

Fanservice for chubby chasers and furry lovers:zaru

[Freija]

Do they exist ? :argh

[Danchou]

I fapped to prefer that Palm x King scene.

It's a bit strange that that much 'fanservice' and gore is allowed in SJ. Then again Bastard!! was also shown in SJ for a while.
