No can do, doc.

Pika is best girl.

Man this is a HxH fan's wet dream
Does this mean Chrollo and Kurapika are gonna duke it out?

How?

>>140477820
I liked his better when Chrollo lost his powers. It was a meaningful moment even if it was implied that he'll get them back. Reintroducing that fag like this is disgusting.

>>140477820

>Keep the shitposting to a minimum. Don't reply to shitposters and obvious baits, just report them.

kek, maximum delusion.

Well, didn't expect this to happen so soon after Togashi decides to come back. So far kinda underwhelming but the fight looks like it just got started.

>>140477953
I hope so. Kurapika is my favorite protagonist and Chrollo is my favorite antagonist.

>>140477820
For a change of pace, lets stop arguing about who would win and focusing on how Togashi will get out of this situation without killing anyone. Aside from Prince interference to have both in the DC I cant think of many ways to stop their fight.

I swear if Hisoka gets his ass kicked then one shots Chrollo i'll be mildly mad

>Kurapika and Chrollo are my favorites

>>140477820
I think it's best to reserve judgement on this chapter for the time being. For either better or worse, things should become much clearer a few chapters down the line.

But seeing as we're here now, Togashi might as well go balls-to-the-wall as far as this fight is concerned.

Well, this isn't intended to be a shitpost or to be bait. But am I the only one who is more invested in the developing plotline of the boat, the princes, the bodyguards, the zodiac, Beyond, and the Dark Continent than in this fight? It's been over a fucking decade since Chrollo was relevant. I would not have minded if he would have been twisted into the main story line at this point but I doubt even Togashi had any clue how to do so, so we get this one off plot line that will probably wrap itself up here. Togashi does such a good job at building these complex plot arcs with a million moving parts. This one just feels like he admits he didn't clean up York Shin arc properly and now randomly decides to give some fanservice.

It just feels like things moved on, I can't get myself back into this fight without some hype.

Also, if one of them is even going to die here, it isn't going to be Hisoka. Sorry you fucking clown haters.

>>140478413
Stop trying to force this shitty meme, retard.

No, I feel the exact same way. This fight came completely out of the blue. Only the fanboys of either character would care about it. For a fight that was foreshadowed well over a decade prior, it feels way too rushed for me to invest in. That is, at least until we get some backstory on what led up to it

Quick question:
The ability he used to manipulate the judge did he have it the entire time ?

Because i could swear i saw another person using this same skill but i dont remeber who it was

I honestly didn't fucking see Hisoka vs Chrollo coming, holy shit.
There's still one month before the boat ride, right? Surely this will tie into the DC plot in some way.

I think no one will die, maybe something will happen and stop the fight or someone will fake it.

>>140478462
Hisoka is far more valuable a character. He can get injected into literally any HxH plotline and make it more interesting. Togashi has struggled to keep the troupe relevant since York Shin and mostly gives them panel space for the rabid fans.

>>140478501
Coming out of the blue and rushed are two very different things. HxH fights are generally pretty short though.

>>140478523
I mean since Kurapika is the protag of this arc I'm sure he and Chrollo will cross paths

>>140478586
The only thing that felt like he was trying to keep them relevant is their part in CA, their part in GI felt pretty natural since it was linked to the events of Yorkshin.
But even then i'm pretty sure it was also a way to introduce their abilities and Meteor City.

Quwroffags on suicide watch

>>140478523
Someone mentioned Hisoka wanting to fight Chrollo in last week's thread and now this. I don't know if Togashi is here shitposting or what.

Also I need to read up on shit because I barely remember how they took Chrollo down.

>>140477820
where the fuck did this fight came from?
Since when is Chrollo a floor master?
What the fuck is going on?

>They say its a fight to the death
>Chrollo dies but stole some ability that will reincernate him

or

>Hisoka dies but he doesnt because he will just use some asspull move

>>140478523
I would hope so. I will be severely disappointed if this is just some distracting plot line shit. I love the developing plot of the princes.

I'm fucking ready, I don't care that there wasn't any build-up. We're gonna get this fight and then he'll go on hiatus again and never return, but at least THIS plotline will be resolved.

>>140478586
Your gay clown friend is going to die. Why can't you just accept it and move on?

This is something pretty fucking important to happen offscreen.

>>140478952
I hope we get a flashback of it.

>>140478968
Stolen abilities disappear if the original user dies, so no, Shalnark is likely alive. He might have even agreed to lend it to him for the fight.

>>140478952

You mean Shalnark? Blond guy? Kinda looks like Kurapika but with a boyish haircut?

Because that's the case here.

>>140478523
Me neither. I guess we all assumed Chrollo was still getting his nen exorcised.

That said, if Hisoka brought the exorcist to him, why didn't they fight then and there?

>>140478517
We both remembered Shalnark, the "adult Pairo conspiracy" spider. He too has cellphone control hatsu. Although a bit different.
I hope for a bit of pre-setup chapters, if this fight even goes anywhere. This fight appears out of nowhere, and doesn't feel right to end with someone's death right now. It would just be emotionless waste. And Togashi seems to be going for a big series finale, and I don't think he would dunk spiders thread like this. It better get interrupted somehow, since I would rather have this as a set up chapter. Qwororff is back in nen game, Hiskoa cornered him and the NEXT time they meet will trully be a last time. With some proper foreground it would turn to be a quick and brutal HxH fight, worthy of ending a major plotline.

>>140479123
Who knows? Maybe there are.

>>140479169
Chrollo reads battles shonen to train for fights

So Kuroro (whatever) can use one ability while retaining 100% fight capability or two while keeping a hand busy.

>>140479233
But that's the best part, that it comes out of fucking nowhere. Also, flashbacks exist and can still show that couple of panels you mention.

>>140478952
This is a common writing technique, having important things only foreshadowed and happening off-screen to make it feel like the story doesn't solely revolve around what's going on on-screen. It's supposed to make it feel like there's more than one plotline going on at any given time and make the world feel more alive.

but like anon said, you can just involve him in any arc to make it better. He's always got a decent reason for being anywhere, and he's got a fun skillset.

I'm not asking to be spoonfed, I'm asking that stuff that is this important actually happen on-screen. This is a fight that I've been excited for for like a decade and yet when it actually started happening I was so shocked that I spent half the chapter convinced it was some sort of dream sequence or something that I couldn't even really enjoy it. I guess it's really just a side-effect of how abrupt all this feels, and my point is that if a couple chapters ago we'd seen even a page setting it up I'd be enjoying everything that happens a lot more because I wouldn't be totally overwhelmed by it.

Maybe this would lead to something interesting... as long as Togashi don't hiatus on us after this.

Gotta admit it would be the ultimate trolling but the only time he ever let us down was when Gon went SS3.

I mean, sure, this was an awaited fight but i doubt it would end on death as announced.

More to the point, Chrollo stealing Shalnak's ability is a pretty dick move.

>>140478371
I love all that stuff too, but I want Chrollo to be relevant on the DC/Boat trip and here's a good way to reintroduce him. He's already pretty much Kura's rival isn't he?

Who are these two guys and why are they fighting?

>>140479494
And all of this could be revealed later through flashbacks. Calm your tits anon.

>>140479624
Just a couple of goofs havin a bout.

Why would Chrollo bother to become a floor master

>>140479654
Why would a guy that can steal abilities go to a place where there are a lot of abilities to steal.

>>140478483
Pika and Chrollo are narutard tier taste.

>>140479658
How the fuck is Illumi relevant to Kurapika in any way?

>>140479654
Doesn't care about that, see >>140479490

Hisoka's getting him pay his debt in the form of a duel.

>>140479012
It will be odd if Chrollo goes final boss on his ass borrowing all spider abilities for this battle.

>>140479735
I somehow misread Kura as Killua and deleted my post out of shame when I realized.

>>140479700

It just seems so weird, also do they not have to fight challengers from time to time? On top of that if he gone through Heavens tower then surely his nen power should be known and not have taken the Zoldycks by surprise

>>140479800
It's okay anon, it happens.

....the fuck are you talking about

>>140479807
He probably only got into Heaven's Arena after Greed Island.

>>140479807
Why over complicate things, ti's said he recently became one. And SIlva knew about Skill Hunter. You think Zoldycks are watching the fights?

>>140479807
>knows gay ass clown want your ass
>you're fucking Chrollo, master of preparation, the batman of Hunter x Hunter
>Decide to go in a place where he can learn multiple new abilities

So he probably went there when he needed it. That means after the assassination attempt by Zoldycks. Necessity creates actions.

>>140479446
>>140479574
Well shit. Alright, then.

>>140479591
Its just borrowed. He is a thief so he likely has all the Spiders abilities onhand for disposal and convenient use.

>>140479807
There was something about it. Not sure if there's a time limit, but if you bail out of a number of challenges you are out. But I assume that doesn't really affect masters from the top floors since the number of people in position to face you is on the low side.

>>140480056
I find it hard to believe him going/betraying the other spiders and taking their skills by force.

>>140479996
>the batman of Hunter x Hunter
That's Pika.

The one thing bugging me about this chapter is why Pika didn't notice Chrollo recovering his nen. The only explanation I can think of is that Abengane's ability can't get rid of a nen curse.

>>140479352
Not til after next hiatus my friend.

>>140480056
No, he steals, he is not Leol. He borrowed nothing at all.

Kurapika may not feel what happened because technically the curse still exists.

That's literally what it is you dumb nigger.

>>140479110

This isn't a freaking problem. We've seen Gon, Killua, and Kurapica go through training arcs. Leorio did the same shit, and he's probably getting more training right now under Cheadle. We don't need to see it.

>>140480453
And this wasn't gradual. It literally just happened.

>>140480239
What makes you think he isn't?

>>140480306
No chance, this group and the zodiac are going to lay low until Dark Continent. The princes and bodyguards are going to do all the heavy lifting until then.

>>140480392

Nah, that's exactly what it is. Once Kuroro was done preparing there's no way he would put off fighting Hisoka. It's not in his personality to do so. And realistically, Kuroro would just straight up challenge him instead of it being some big grand lead-up. Incidentally, Kuroro has challenged Hisoka in a no frills manner.

>>140478735
Pretty much.

Its hilarious to see Chrollofags think he's in any way close to being as important as Hisoka.the only chqracter with any deathflag here is Chrollo, especially since he was talking all that shit about how the spiders can still go on without him back in Yorkshin and the others seem to be doing fine in that little CA cameo without him.

Chrollo has literally no plot armor.

>>140480201
Not really? Why there of all places?
Heavens Arena is basically newb city and pretty weakass. Killua and Gon could clear it easily without even learning Nen.

If he wanted strong skillsets why didn't he just sneak into the Hunter elections and bank the Zodiacs?

>>140480183
He probably can't notice it, if it's just Abengane's nen beast that has the curse now instead of Chrollo. Even if Abengane were able to get rid of the curse altogether, Kurapika's reaction probably wouldn't be all that disastrous; he knew from the start that his curse wasn't a permanent solution, and that nen exorcists exist.

There is no way to hisoka to defeat chrollo.
They are on different power level.

>>140480513

togashi probably will use hisoka whimsiness to forfeit the match for some reason

>Heavens Arena is basically newb city and pretty weakass.

No, it isn't. Especially if you're a floor master who gets to fight strong opponents. Also, it's not out of the question that Kuroro went there originally just to get experience fighting a long time ago.

And we know Kuroro just doesn't get his abilities from Heaven's Arena, but there are probably some useful abilities there at the upper echelons.

>>140480513
>this wasn't gradual. It literally just happened.
The build up started in Yorkshin when Hisoka told Kurapika he wanted to fight Chrollo. He gets cockblocked at the end of the arc.
In Greed Island, he's on the look for an exorcist to remove Kurapika's chain from Chrollo, and the other troupe members figure out that Chrollo promised him a fight.
In CA, Phinks gets a phonecall and wonders if it's from Chrollo, implying that he already had his nen back since he wouldn't be allowed to get in contact with the Troupe if he still had Pika's chain.
In the Election, Illumi mentions that Hisoka has been spending his time running after Chrollo.

You're retarded.

>>140480690
Chrollo literally was running away from Hisoka in order to get more hax powers and he even took shit from his subordinates.

Dude is mad shook.

>>140480611
Hisoka already deduced that the Zodiac were beneath him, they wouldn't prove any real challenge to Chrollo honestly.

>>140480690
Go back to your Goku vs Saitama thread.

>>140480611
After the 200th floor it's only filled with nen users though. Also what makes you say it's not smart to steal abilities he found useful from people he fought on the way to becoming a floor master?

>>140480791
Hisoka will obviously not die.

Either Chrollo dies (possible since he there is literally no need for him anymore), or someone interrupts (likely if Chrollo is getting rekt and the Spiders jump in).

>>140478586
This, the spiders are thiefs and assasins, there was no reason for them to appear at the chimera arc besided to appeals the fans

kurapika decided not to kill/pursed them then there is no reason for them to appear at least togashi want some team rocket dynamic

>>140480767
It's not that simple. They are able to give him a good fight but he doesn't know their abilities, they could be stronger.
>>140480721
Even weak opponents can have good abilities.

>>140480721
Gon and Killua cleared it hundreds of chapters ago. Pre-nen. Its not great or upper-tier.
Its not like the Elite 4 of hxh world. The way it was side stepped as training early on made it seem like an easy Gym Badge practically.

They didn't clear shit. Gon fought a floormaster who was holding back (Hisoka). And that was it.

This isn't how HxH works. Even weakass opponents can get the best of you if they're abilities are good.

>>140480740
All the shit you posted is miniscule at best in comparison to the actual salient events of Chrollo getting his Nen back, meeting Hisoka again, becoming a floor master, and the immediate moments prior to the fight itself.

All the moments you're talking about isn't build up. It's is literally just Togashi saying "oh hey yeah, this is still a thing btw guys"

It's probably a restriction that he has.

>>140480767

Hisoka isn't god. He thought he would stand a chance against Netero, when they're on completely different levels.

So that was the dream match-up they were hyping up. >>139856974

>>140480793
Chrollo is way stronger then Illumni. He fought his father and grandfather at the same time, he'd manhandle skinpuppy.
And if Hisokas whims are to be believed, the Zodiacs too.

Chrollos more relevant to the story, Pika needs his closure. Hisokas gonna lose

>>140477820
How does this series keep taking me by surprise like this? This is like the opposite of Togashi's usual anti climaxes, instead of building up to a climax then pulling the plug, he cuts out the build up and goes straight to a climax.

It is pretty out of nowhere but it definitely keeps things interesting, I'm guessing we'll have the blanks filled in by flashbacks or dialogue.

>>140480798
Would they care? Murdering dickholes like Hisoka were at the Election, they gave no shits.

>>140478371
This chapter was definitely a momentum cockblock, despite the long-anticipated match-up. I think it would've been better if he included one of the princes watching the match. I hope he somehow ties both of them to the DC arc since everyone and their mom is going on that boat.

>>140481147

Pro Hunters don't feel its worth the risk taking them down

>>140481147
>everybody knows their faces
They do? Even Kurapika had no idea who was a member.

>>140481121

Kuroro is strong, but doesn't have the greatest combat sense. He completely mis-used Owl's ability when going up against Zeno and Silva. Since he has so many abilities he can't use any of them in the most efficient way.

>>140481147

The police are gonna interrupt their fight of course

>>140481128
Kurapika needs his closure with Kuroro.
Gon needs his closure with Hisoka.

Neither of them is going to die, something is going to happen.

>>140480918
He's got a million skills and likes to play with his opponent's mind, acting like this is perfectly in character for him.
It's not like he loses anything by revealing 1 ability out of 100

>>140480905
You are retarded. Their place was attacked and they explained why ants like these kind of places. We got to learn more of their abilities and they chose a temp leader.

>>140480918

It might be part of his restriction.

The narrator explains abilities otherwise, especially in fucking Chimera.

>>140481257

Hunter x Hunter is so anti-climatic, when has something ever panned out the way you expect it to?

>>140481222

Exactly - he's a jack of all trades, but master of none kind of guy.

Maybe he realized that, and focused on mastering his OWN ability.

Chrollo, Hisoka and Illumi should be on the same tier as the zodiacs but hey this is simple conjecture.

I honestly see Hisoka winning with sever injuries and Chrollo fake his death.

2 Years hiatus, not one.

>>140481121
>Chrollo is way stronger then Illumni
No he isn't. Illumi is in the same tier as his dad, Zeno and Hisoka.

>>140481128
Pika has moved on, the prince is more relevant to his interests because he was the root cause of his clan's genocide, the troupe was just a convenient tool looking to make money on the black market.

It was heavily implied multiple times in York Shin that Kurapika's victories over the Troupe there were hollow.

>>140481020
Because none of that shit is important and would waste everyone's time. We know he can mercilessly and easily decimate scrubs and becoming a floor master is perfectly believable for him. Why does it need to be shown?

>>140479282
Before he was forced to hold his book to fight and cast abilities so he always was with one hand less.

Now he can fight/cast without the need of holding his book, he just need to put the bookmark in the ability page and that's it, also now he can use multiples abilities and combine them too, the restriction for this is that the abilities must be on the pages were the bookmark is, meaning the left and right page.

Also there are some new restriction for this bookmark that he mentioned to be really bothersome, probably some more complex ways to steal the powers

Even Hisoka didn't want to piss off Illumi.

I am more angry Togashi didn't show us Chrollo getting his nen back with the spider there to celebrate. Would have been something cool to see.

Is this going to lead into a Battle Olympia arc? I always thought it was weird that it was brought up to sound significant in HA arc but never went anywhere, it should eventually be relevant considering the whole chekovs gun thing.

The only thing you have to go by in terms of "power levels" is Hisoka's arbitrary numbering in that one chapter, and even entry level HxH fags should know that nen battles are not about how high your fucking power level is.

>>140481456

Because he gets to be the lovable murderous wildcard that Togashi can use to mix up the story in ways that would otherwise be possible.

Barring CA, Hisoka's become a great constant in this series, and definitely in the top 3 fan favorites.

>>140481289

He would have died (along with Zeno) if Illumi hadn't interrupted the fight with his call.

He couldn't even use his book and was on the defensive the entire time.

The fanbase vastly overrates both Hisoka and Kuroro.

When will the Chrollo v Zeno/Silva meme end guys?

>>140481656
When Hisoka kills him next chapter.

>>140480918
For chrollo to steal abilities he needs to explain his power

Hisoka knew already about his old book stealing abilitiy but chrollo updated his power and got new restrictions, so he need to explain the new parts to hisoka in order to steal his power

>>140481456
Blantant bias and horseshit. During the election, Hisoka thought he could kill Illumni for fun in the woods. Killua or Illumni, JUST for kicks.

Its possible Hisoka was wrong or insane, but he's confident enough that he can handle people on Illumni or Sheep's level.

>>140481593
I swear, the way some Hisoka fans are acting, they'd tell you he could beat Meruem. It's fucking insufferable.

>>140481545
Grandpa stated neither side was fighting seriously. They're too high tier to even know the outcome fully.

>>140481635

...

Read the manga. Zeno straight up says that sort of ability will be useless against them. And Kuroro recalls the ability because, guess what it was useless. Kuroro was boneheaded to try to use that sort of ability against Zeno and Silva considering he had fought Silva before and knew what level of fighters they were.

>>140481635
>>140481635

He did. Owl managed to capture a Genei Ryodan member because he used his ability properly. Kuroro couldn't do shit with it because he decided to use it straight up as a combat ability with no element of suprise against 2 opponents. Why the fuck would you think you can use an obvious ability like that against non-retarded opponents?

Hisoka can't lose until he shows his final ability.

If Chrollo surives it then he is in big trub.

>>140481644
Collecting the clan's body parts =/= revenge against the Troupe.

>>140481719
No he never. He said that he wanted to kill Alluka and Killua in order to fight Illumi.

>>140481719
He also has no idea about Killuas godspeed, and was prepared to take on the entire Troupe at once if his trick failed. He's completely insane and unhinged.

Cloun challenging powerful people is no indicator of anything but his own dumbassery.

>>140481798
...Huh, no? Chrollo took out the fun-fun cloth because as a flashy, menacing-looking ability any good opponent would back away and try to study it instead of recklessly going to attack, something Chrollo wanted since his aim was to buy time and let Illumi kill the Godfathers.
However, Zeno saw through all this and bypassed the mind-fuckery by attacking him from long range, hence while Chrollo realized that tactic didn't bear fruit and recalled the fun-fun cloth.
Dunno what you think happened there.

>>140481877
They didn't know what that ability was so Chrollo expected them to hesitate. It backfired though because Zeno had ranged attacks.

This fight is a few tiers below Netero vs. Meruem in terms of skill level.

A serious Netero (he wouldn't fight seriously against Hisoka or Kuroro) would crush Hisoka or Kuroro before they knew what hit them.

Just like with Mereum, except they don't have his insane defense to take getting hit thousands of times.

>>140481593
He is not a threat? Why is Hisoka not stomped yet?

>>140481989
And you think he'd want to fight Illumni ignorantly if he didn't think he could win?

>>140481426
>the restriction for this is that the abilities must be on the pages were the bookmark is, meaning the left and right page.
This isn't stated anywhere. Also by seeing the inside of the book we already saw abilities take up two pages.

>>140481219
>They do?

reread the yorknew arc dumbfuck, they used dummy bodies to fake their death.

>>140481763
Hisoka is probably one of the few characters dumb enough to challenge Meruem knowing how strong he is.

>>140482057

My post went right over your head.

Kuroro has fought Silva before, so why would he think Zeno and Silva would fall in the first category?

Also, Kuroro straight up says that he wanted to capture them and get their abilities (absolutely insane) and is even disappointed that he wasn't able to do so.

He has been.

>>140482057

Actually, Kuroro legitemately wanted to capture one of them and steal their abilities.

Once again, read the manga.

>>140482141
Read that part again
Hisokas eyes are rolling back and he's in 'heat'.
He doesn't fight to win. Just to have a good fight and get off to it.
Clearly he's not thinking clearly and Illumni could've fucked him up with one careless move.

>>140477820
the art was fucking awful and this fight was random as fuck, togashi might as well have just pissed in my mouth with this garbage

>>140482211
He wanted to buy time because if he wished to succeed at stealing their abilities he needed to fill out all the conditions, yes. Taking out the fun-fun cloth was part of that buying time strategy, which Zeno saw through and foiled. He didn't take out the cloth because he actually thought he was gonna capture both with it, it was part of his strategy to buy time and clear the requirements.

>>140482112
>This fight is a few tiers below Netero vs. Meruem in terms of skill level.
The fight is not over. And Hisoka and Meruem were not overconfident shit who would sit before their opponents, they are careful.

So how did Chrollo become a floor master?
It's obvious he can, but how did he dispatch the early floor scrubs?

>>140482277
I agree, you should drop it and fuck off

>>140482277
Was I the only one who thought he'd used assistants? The art was, really weird. Different.

You're proving my point. He used a lame strategy that was fucking retarded, and consequently it didn't work. He also almost died if not for Illumi interrupting the fight.

>>140482381
>Was I the only one who thought he'd used assistants?

if he used assistants the art would be better, togashi art sucks and we've seen evidence of this before.

>>140481416
>Because none of that shit is important and would waste everyone's time
Seeing Chrollo get his Nen back is a waste of time? That's like saying seeing Meruem's birth is a waste of time.

who the fuck is kuroro ?

>>140482446
>You're proving my point
No? You're trying to imply that Chrollo believed the fun-fun cloth would succeed at capturing both of them, which is false.
He took it out because any average/good opponent would feel the danger and back away, sadly Zeno is an excellent warrior and immediately realized his intent - going the exact opposite way and instantly attacking.

The purpose of using Owl's ability wasn't to capture them with it but to buy time.

There likely won't be any fight as "high level" as Meruem and Netero in the series again.

Look here, were the bookmark is placed he can use abilities so the two pages that get "touched" by the bookmark are available.

He says he can combine different powers now, so either the abilities taking several pages got retconed or somehow he managed to put more abilities on one page, like reducing the font or simpler abilities take less space or something like that

No.
He explained his sun and moon ability for no reason.

and why the fuck would chrollo choose to fight in such a place? announcing his powers to the fucking world when everyone thinks hes supposed to be dead? this shit makes no fucking sense, and it was just togashi selling the fuck out because he has to bait his fanbase back somehow after going on a hiatus for so fucking long.

Nope. Read the manga. He really did want to capture one of them, but of course figured it was useless when his strategy. The problem is he shouldn't have even thought to use an ability like that in the situation in the first place.

>>140482592

>>140482869
They were off-paneled, which equates to glossing over them. And yes, I'm gonna take into consideration the hiatuses. They are what made fan anticipation for these events grow far more than they should have; thus Togashi had an eve nigger inclination to treat them like big deals. But he didn't. He glossed over them and rushed all the way to this fight. If you wanna lick his asshole like a fanboy then go ahead, keep doing that. It doesn't change the fact that Togashi acted like a hack in this chapter.

He said nothing that Hisoka didn't already know by being a Spider for a while, except that he can have up to 3 different abilities for a times, but Chrollo was being a smug fucker, so he didn't really care because he assumes that info won't be relevant. It was really just a detailed explanation for the readers instead of IT JUST WORKS.

He didn't tell anything important, which is what abilities his book have and what are the ones he is using.

It's not about linear or non-linear storytelling, you colossal retard. If these were minor events, then fine. But stuff like Chrollo regaining his Nen and meeting Hisoka for the first time in years were deliberately skipped over and given throaway explanations all just so Togashi could rush to this fight. This is what a hack would do. Sorry if that triggers you.

Yes, he did expect to do it with the cloth. Again, read the manga.

Once he dispatched his ability, he went completely on the defensive and said he wouldn't be able to capture them alive. It wasn't just to buy time, this fool actually thought he could pull it off.

That's not what he says, he's just telling Gon that the next fight will be in a real battle field and not in the Arena. Plus, if you remember, every one of Hisoka's match except for Gon's has ended up with Hisoka killing his opponent, so I don't get where you got the idea of the referees prohibiting murder.

It's gonna be so hilarious when all these Hisokafags get BTFO in two weeks.

Togashi fucked up

>>140483115

Chrolo vs Zoldicks was just a sparring match. The Zoldick family and Chrolo knew what was up so they were merely pretending, with only Illumi being serious because his contract had the only reasonable effort:reward ratio. They're strong guys, so they won't scratch their balls while waiting for Illumi to finish his job, but they won't tryhard either.

Why do you think he didn't try to check out the "kusoyaro" ability and strenght during New York and just fuck off or prepare a plan ? He completely respected the prediction of the future without even considering the possibility of outplaying the "destiny", which ultimately is what happened through Hisoka actions.

>>140483305
>If these were minor events, then fine.
What does that change exactly you dumbass? It's still the same common writing process and it's more effective when it's used for significant events, it's left for the reader to wonder what lead to it and piece it together.

>deliberately skipped over
Where? What happened was explicitely stated.
>given throaway explanations
Such as?
>just so Togashi could rush to this fight
You are a goddamn retard, if that's what he actually wanted he wouldn't have waited like 150 chapters to make it happen. Making a short mini-arc about if after GI leading up to it would be "rushing" to the fight, leaving hints in several arcs over the course of 150 chapters is not fucking rushing.

>>140482623
holy shit I thought the "kuririn" thing was a fucking joke.

>>140483553
>genthru needs to explain his nen ability for it to work so everyone else must also do the same

you're retarded, kill yourself.

Chrollo's new ability is cool, but did Togashi have to use the typical sun and moon symbols? It's kind of unoriginal, he could've just invented his own.

>>140482881
>announcing his powers to the fucking world
The crowd doesn't hear him, the announcer had to tell them they agreed on a death match.
>everyone thinks hes supposed to be dead
Only the mafia, and since the dons are all dead there's no risk for him. The fake bodies disappeared anyway so even if it wasn't the case they'd have figured it was a trick.

>>140483113
Not as overconfident as cloun who thought he could fight his way out of all the Spiders at once.

Togashi has stated in the past that Chrollo is his favorite character in HxH. Look it up you dumbfucks. Do you honestly think he's going to kill off his favorite character in his first major 1 on 1 battle? Autistic neckbeards, the lot of you.

>>140483629

>going to the OP general
Is this the kind of cancer these threads attract nowadays?
Also you haven't showed me anything supporting your claim that he's "holding back", where the fuck did you get that from?

>>140480056

But Neon could not use her ability once Chrollo stole it. While the original spiders are all loyal to him and would just give their abilities up if asked/ commanded it's not actually clear if he remove the ability and the victim can just develop another one or if he removes the nen altogether.
It's never stated if he can give the abilities back either so depending on the case it would be a dick move even if he had permision.

>>140483410
>Yes, he did expect to do it with the cloth. Again, read the manga.
I did, and apparently better than you. You really shouldn't take everything at face value.

I don't have the strength to continue if it's like last time.

>>140483845

>Also you haven't showed me anything supporting your claim that he's "holding back", where the fuck did you get that from?

He literally says that on the current fight. For Zoldicks vs Chrollo, then reread that and probably a bit before and after the fight. If you still think there is nothing supporting my claim, you're a "walking her home gently" tier retard who can't grasp even the most basic context so trying to make you understand is impossible.

The fight is going to get interrupted and both of them will get hired on as bodyguards via some hook, probably as bodyguards for the eye collector. That sets up the boat arc for Pika vs. Chrollo with Hisoka trolling around fucking with and killing many of the other bodyguards.

>>140483904
>Neither of them are going to die, shitlord.
Yeah, Gotoh didn't die super hard.

>>140483629
>He completely respected the prediction of the future without even considering the possibility of outplaying the "destiny", which ultimately is what happened through Hisoka actions.

This has nothing to do with him being cocky, and more to do with being a spiritual cuck. He respected the predictions and didn't try to change them because he believes in that shit.

>>140483819
He said Chrollo was his favourite Phantom Troupe member, not his favourite character overall.

>>140483790

You're right. He's still overconfident though.

>>140483652
Being a practice in other series doesn't fucking justify it being a practice in this one. What don't you fucking understand about that? This shit about "le left to our own interpretation!!" is a goddamn cop-out used by hacks and frauds who couldn't think of a decent explanation on their own.

Chrollo getting his Nen back was explicitly stated, was it? No. He just had his Nen back. That's it. No build-up, no nothing. Just bang. Even if it was stated, that's still worse than actually showing the event.

You're the retard. just because he didn't rush to it almost immediately after Chrollo lost his Nen doesn't mitigate the fact that he still rushed to it during this current arc. No warning, nor hint, the fight just happened. It's inexcusable, and you sucking Togashi's cock over this proves what an idiot you are.

>>140483709
>>genthru needs to explain his nen ability for it to work so everyone else must also do the same
I wasn't even implying that, you imbecile fuck. The explanations in the middle of the battle have already been addressed in the past, why are you so sure it wouldn't be the same this time?

>>140483904
This is a falseflag. Not even the most ardent Hisokafag is this retarded.

Try to stop spouting memes like the autistic child you are for a second and try to actually post something supporting your claim you stupid fuck.
He literally says the opposite after Hisoka asks him if he's not going too easy on him, and the last panel implies it too when he says it never took him so many abilities to kill someone.

>>140477820

He liked Chrollo so much he stopped drawing him for over a decade.

>>140484196
>No build-up, no nothing
Is Chrollo getting his nen back seriously that interesting that it needs more build up?

Either way you're just jumping the gun in getting mad, we will probably hear about it later on. The way people overreact about one fucking chapter is absurd, for all we know there could be an incoming flashback but Togashi wanted to start with something more exciting.

I usually ignore autists like you and move on, but BTFO is so fucking FREE i simply can't let it slide. At least other autists requires me to put a bare minimum effort to destroy them, so i simply can't be bothered.

Also protip: meme'ing is only bad when you add nothing else to the discussion, which is the reason why phoneposting should be banned on 4chan, as that's all they do.

It's been used in critically acclaimed books and novels since the 19th century.
>"le left to our own interpretation!!"
It's not left to your interpretation you gigantic dumbass, who said that? It's only left for you to piece together, not come up with your own explanation. I'm starting to think you are genuinely retarded.

>Chrollo getting his Nen back was explicitly stated, was it? No.
The fucking narrator tells you Hisoka hired Abengane to remove the chain from Chrollo at the end of GI.
>No build-up, no nothing. Just bang.
You're contradicting yourself, you acknowledged the build up when you admitted he used background foreshadowing in your first sentence. You can try to argue why you think it's bad but right now you're back pedaling.
>Even if it was stated, that's still worse than actually showing the event.
What's your reasoning behind this? Are you one of those retards who don't know how to use "show don't tell"?

>No warning, nor hint
I already explained to you how it was hinted and you even acknowledged it. Again, you're back pedalling.

In GI Hisoka finds the exorcist, in CA Hisoka and the exorcist find Chrollo, during the election Chrollo has already his nen back and Hisoka is chasing after him, now the fight is finally happening. Everything is clear, nothing is left to interpretation. Go back to /v/eddit you fucking memespouter retard.

It's probably stronger than Little Flower though since it has the restriction of having to make the two seals touch.

I cant believe with this shit is happening after all this time.

I have a hard time believing one of them will die.

Also I'm guessing Shalnark let him borrow the ability.

>>140484698
>It's been used in critically acclaimed books and novels since the 19th century
La-dee-da. And how is that relevant to this specific series? I'll tell you how: Not. Fucking. At all.

>It's not left to your interpretation you gigantic dumbass, who said that? It's only left for you to piece together, not come up with your own explanation.
For all your talk of backpedalling, this part of your post sure is funny. Yeah, you originally say that " it's left for the reader to wonder what lead to it and piece it together", which can easily be equated for coming up with your own interpretation. I never said anything about coming up with "your own explanation". Those are your words, not mine. You're just putting these words in my mouth for the sake of keeping your own argument from crumbling apart.

>The fucking narrator tells you Hisoka hired Abengane to remove the chain from Chrollo at the end of GI.
I'm talking about the current arc, retard. The actual event of Chrollo's Nen being returned.

>You're contradicting yourself, you acknowledged the build up when you admitted he used background foreshadowing in your first sentence.
Again, I'm talking about this specific arc, not any of the previous scenes regarding this issue in past arcs. You're just muddling your words at this point.

>What's your reasoning behind this? Are you one of those retards who don't know how to use "show don't tell"?
Are you one of those retards who tries to justify the writer being a hack by creating extremely fallacious arguments to support your stance? Yes, you are. Chrollo getting his Nen back as a lead-up to this fight should be quintessential, and should be displayed to the reader, not simply talked about.

>I already explained to you how it was hinted and you even acknowledged it.
Again, you're making shit up to keep your shitty argument on life support.

Just fuck off, you massive fucking tool.

350 Viz link where?

Anyone else not hyped and baffled? This transition is really out of the blue, not to mention this chapter is bringing out the worst shitposters. I just want to get on the boat before the next hiatus, but this fight will take up 2 or 3 chapters now.

He has no reason to not go out with everything he got since he has the surprise factor on his side with 4 fucking different abilities and Hisoka is supposed to be the nen battlemaster tactician that have the most simple yet most versatile and useful of nen abilities. He is only giving Hisoka more opportunity to survive and understand Chrollo's thought proccess and what abilities he is more likely to possess in his book.

A draw out battle against Hisoka is the best for him, specially when he has a known fetish for fights and kids and it shows Chrollo's ultimate arrogance, confidence and smugness, which contrasts and doesn't fit his York Shin personality and approach to the future prediction.

Last (you) i'm getting. Honestly just typing this as a food for thought for the lurkers and togashidrones, getting to BTFO even more is just a cherry on top of the cake.

Can we at least agree that it would better for Hisoka to lose?

He has no relevance.

So what's Hisoka trump card is going to be?
