What do you mean there's nothing wrong? Kurapika dissapeared for a couple chapters and then comes back strong enough to manhadle a power house like Uvogin and a powerset perfectly made to deal with spiders, and Gon "sacrificed" his potential to become stronger as Meruen, a bullshit power up that no other Hunter ever thought of doing.
>>

Manga is the best shonen series ever made.

Anime is not that great.
>>
>>150726841
>>150729343
The most generic shounen ever but because the happy go lucky protagonist became edgy for one part of one arc it's suddenly a masterpiece now. The chimera ant arc had shock value which brought a lot of viewers and finally made HxH popular enough to be on par with the rest of other shonen. Gon, despite making a sacrifice is healed up one arc later and despite being edgy for one part is now back to his old self. Literally zero character growth.

Leorio isn't fleshed out enough as is the rest of the cast. Nen had potential but then turned out it's just energy blasts/fists/blade/typical anime shit. Stands and devil fruit powers are much more interesting and exciting despite the less complex explanations.

It's full of undeveloped characters, plotholes and asspulls.

Both of those were explained though.

Kurapika literally sacrificed his entire nen options and forced himself to use them a specific way, simply to overpower spiders. Do you not realize how large a handicap that is?

Gon literally killed himself and castrated his nen and was only revived due to powerful nen users who could only keep him on ICU, then the bullshit with Nanika which was really asspulled, I admit.

It's a masterpiece because it was consistently good and had one filler episode.

The character development was great, you're just a faggot.

Gon being healed was an asspull, you get that one.

Leorio isn't fleshed out after a certain point because he never wanted to be part of the action in the first place. He literally fulfilled his goal.
>>
>>150728051
It's not a bullshit power, just not one that is commonly used. Someone who is committed enough to die for something gains a lot of power until they die. Odds are that if any character of even average strength were to have a restriction like "give me more power for the next hour and then I die" they would be on Netero's level. The only thing stopping them is that most people are fighting to continue living, not being completely willing to sacrifice themselves for something before even starting the fight. Hell if Netero had started the fight with something like that he probably would have beat Meruem, but he wanted to see if he could actually beat him and live.
>>
>>150730958
Technically Netero didn't need to use that technique regardless because he had the flower bombs that actually did kill Meruem in the end, so he knew he was basically guaranteed victory. If Poof hadn't have been a healer then it would have been game over.
>>
>>150731009
Well exactly. That's why he didn't bother with that, his options were that he either tries and is defeated, setting off a bomb and killing his enemy, or that he tries and wins, in which case he never has to set the bomb off.

No one cares about what plays most of the time in an episode in the background. It's the important music pieces that matter. In example that music when Netero was about to kill himself, that was perfectly on point. Or when Killua cried after Illumi was mean to him? Perfectly on point. Or when Chrollo was spazzing out and flailing his arms in the air because he had an epilepsy attack? On. Point.

Nothing was ever on point in 1999. The only good music piece in it was that pop band that did the emo opening in the Yorknew arc.

Either:

A. Nen user flesh, even after death, has a lot more vitality than a normal person's.
B. Hisoka is a zombie fueled by ghost nen, not a living person anymore.

Choice B has led to some interesting theories, like him losing more and more of his body until he's nothing but a rubber and gum demon, or that he'll drop dead as soon as he kills Chrollo and his grudge powering his braindead corpse is fulfilled.
>>
>>150737634
Voice acting, music and sfx in 1999 were all garbage and were exactly what made it worse than 2011. The art and direction were better though.

B. is more possible considering every body has nen right even if they don't use it, it's like their life force and hisoka literally hopped up from death and can make rubber limbs seems like his body has the properties of both rubber and gum. so is it safe to say he's a rubber man can togashi give him a weakness or is there more to this

It's a psychological thing.

No one is eager to cripple their long-term potential just to win one fight.
If they actually get backed into a corner so badly they realize cripple nen is the only option, odds are they're already dead or only realized that AFTER getting stabbed in the dick.
At which point they're bleeding to death and panicking too much to make any tangible thoughts about nen restrictions.

Nen is heavily influenced by emotions. If they think they might be screwed before getting to that point and try the trick, odds are it won't work because of their doubts about really going through with it. "Oh shit, this guy might kill me" ain't cutting it beyond a typical adrenaline boost.

It only worked in Gon's case because he spent plenty of time simmering in guilt and hate before hitting full despair, and Pitou had developed enough mercy to not just decapitate him as soon as the phone call came.
When Gon made the decision to throw away everything, it wasn't some simple survival instinct.
He was fully willing to die if it meant reducing Pitou to a stain on the floor in the process.
>>
>>150747505
>No one is eager to cripple their long-term potential just to win one fight.

I mean, if it's clear you're about to die, why wouldn't you? At least you take the other guy with you. I'm pretty sure there were fights were Hisoka fucked around for plenty of time with nen users before killing them, they could very well have made it.

Although reading this made me realize that maybe it's not that simple to do, since the only 2 cases of this we've seen are Kurapika's and Gon's, and both had a lot of time to prepare it. I guess it could be possible Gon made that shit way before the fight actually started.

Not a single ant he saw was on the level of a pro hunter. By the time he encountered Pitou, it was too late for that. Pitou was the first huge spike in power level, nothing even came close before that. We went from the best ant being on the level of amateurs like Gon and Killua, to Ptiou, which was stronger than Netero before he was battle ready, as he said so himself.

Kite could have single handedly killed every single last ant if they were ALL captain level, let alone mostly soldiers. He was concerned about their eventual evolution into something like Pitou, the fact that it happened in mere days was simply something he couldn't account for. Also, the Hunter organization is all politics bullshit as we've seen the next arc, it's not so simple asking for help, especially if you're dealing with enemies way less powerful than the average pro hunter.

The reason Gon's powerup was so immense was because of his potential, which was foreshadowed the entire arc (when Gon shows off his strength to glasses dude, or when chameleon dude says he feels a limitless potential). If some average nen user attempted the same shit they'd probably become as powerful as some above-average nen user and still wouldn't come close to someone like Netero.

Also wasn't part of the reason Gon was able to multiply or "enhance" his strength through that contract because he's an enhance-type? So not any nen user could this.

But I'm just making guesses based on what we know from the series/world.

Presumed by his reincarnated subordinates to have gone to Meteor City.

Speculated by some to be who killed the elder after Chrollo took his sun/moon ability.

did alluka give gon his ability to use nen back or just made him physically better?

>>150752238
This is answered in the manga.
>>
>>150752238
Gon lost his nen but still has his aura. I know I was confused at first too but nen and aura are both separate so all Gon has to do is get someone to open his nodes back up and get a new nen ability.

I think Ging is just trying to get Gon to see that his actions have consequences. In reality I doubt Gon will suffer much of a setback because of what happened. All we need now is a retraining arc for him and have the gang reunite in DC. As for the restriction I think that it's gone, but we'll just have to wait and see until more chapters come out.

>>150752739
>Would he even still be an enhancer?
Yeah probably though I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a new nen ability that puts him in the specialist category.

I thought that only happened when you actually came into contact with malicious aura, like Killua experienced with Illumi and Wing, or what Gon experienced with Hisoka in the hunter exam, or what they both experienced against Pitou. I didn't think just seeing the aura would have the same effect. If Knov came into contact with Pouf's aura, Pouf would've detected it since he was using en, so I always thought his breakdown was caused by just seeing such a terrifying aura, rather than actually touching it.

WALL OF TEXT INCOMING. You asked what happened in nearly a dozen of Togashi's wordy chapters, and I'm delivering.

Part 1:

>Hisoka vs Chrollo at the tournament tower. Chrollo was sick and tired of being stalked and finally proposed a place to fight. Hisoka agreed.
>Meteor City lore, showing off new and "old" stolen abilities, and some minor scuffling and flirting. Chrollo gives Hisoka one last chance to fuck off before he gets serious, assuring Hisoka that there is no chance of him winning. Hisoka says he loves making people with that kind of attitude eat shit.
>Chrollo used prep time, the audience, and complex ability stacking to overwhelm Hisoka with a puppet army, alola snackbar, and hit and run tactics, making it nearly impossible for Hisoka to have any chance of even fighting back.
>Around the time his left hand and right leg were blown off and he was falling into a crowd of puppets, Hisoka realized he was fucked. So he rigged some bungee gum around his heart and hoped for the best.
>Suffocates under a literal mountain of bodies. It's Hisoka, so some Troupe members make sure he's actually fucking dead and not just rusing people with a fake corpse or something.
>Cut to Shalnark at a park. He talks on the phone with Chrollo about their upcoming vacation on the Dark Continent voyage, where they intend to steal all of the Kakin royal family's shit.
>Just as Shalnark wonders what's taking Kortopi so long in the bathroom, the phone starts ringing again.
>And he sees a clown with a rubber and gum leg while out of the bathroom holding Kortopi's decapitated head.
>Then Hisoka kills Shalnark too, strings his corpse up on a swing set like a puppet, and leaves him and the head for the crows.
>LISTEN UP MY NEN. Did I mention that the ghost nen around his heart reanimated him when Machi was about to touch up his corpse, Chrollo used Shalnark's and Kortopi's abilities, and now Hisoka Voorhees is out to annihilate the entire Troupe?
>>
Part 2

>Back to Kakin/Dark Continent stuff. There was actually a chapter with Kurapika before all of this. He paid Biscuit, Hanzo, Melody, Basho, and Izunabi (the guy who taught him nen and restrictions) to help him fill all the bodyguard positions. His goal is to get to the prince who vaguely resembles Trump, due to him being the closest to the one with the scarlet eye collection.
>Hoping to meet Trump, Kurapika instead ended up with that queen(Oito) with the baby prince(female)(Woble). Insert politics that make speedreader eyes bleed here. Basically she wanted to attract and cheaply hire smart people aiming to kill him, aka assassins. Kurapika finds out about the succession war and how she and Woble, being in the absolute weakest position, desperately need any advantage they can get just to escape alive. Pika agrees to defend them, in exchange for helping him get to the prince he was really after.
>We finally get on the boat,. It's basically Titantic 2. While Pika is preparing escape plans, he senses an evil aura coming from the baby behind him.
>Scenes of characters here and there, including two of the princ(esses). And the bodyguards with Pika and the queen are getting their blood sucked en masse, including another death on the toilet. Pika pulls out a gun.
>They're all fucking spies for the other queens, so Woble's nen beast is killing them off. The exceptions are some temp hunters hired by Pariston, who didn't know what he was sending them into. Or he did and just didn't tell them because he's a lovable lil' master baiter like that.
>They figure out what's going on when the nen beasts start roaming the ship. One of the temps, Bill, is actually competent and teams up with Pika.
>One of the other two is being pestered by a talking hamster nen beast only he can see after responding to the its big version that came and went.
>He told the beast he was free, so it made him to start stabbing people including the other temp. Pika prepares to subdue him.
>HIATUS

when preceded by raping a catbuggirl like Pitou, in this case.
>>
>>150730502
The only thing I thought was bullshit was that he could take the big bang impact fist to his arm.
Uvo was so fucking shit, he had what, like 10 years of experience over Kurapika and Kurapika somehow gained enhancer abilities that matched someone with almost 10x the experience? I'm totally fine with him having killed Uvo because Uvo isn't clever and Kurapika had chain jail specifically for spiders, but it's just him being able to tank that punch and Uvo not being much faster that bothered me but I suppose he was always about brute strength and defense over speed, Nobunaga is the enhancer who is fastBut I suppose this is just evidence that Kurapika had much more potential enhancer-wise (and in the other categories) than Uvo.
>>
You are now aware that HxH has had more manga content released in the past 5 years than One Punch Man.
>>
>>150760743
1999 was god tier but only really in the yorkshin arc, it was just at least good in the rest. 2011 is more consistent in its animation, but I really loved the darker style of 1999. The happyfun style of the 2011 was ok I guess
>>
>>150754438
No, you've forgotten how En works. They can't detect you if you're in Zetsu, like Knov was in. This is why he could feel the full horrible thoughts of Pouf.
>>
>>150747128
We could assume his grandfather or some other family member told him about one of his grandfather's abilities. I mean Killua already has cat claws, shadow walk, and snake arms, so imagining his grandfather have some sort of dragon attack isn't out of the realm of possibility.

Best case scenario Netero would just be able to kill Meruem the normal way, no mass destruction necessary.
But the outcome was too uncertain and risky to bet on that, so they prepared the nuke and chose an ideal site to detonate it just in case.

They never saw a chin-chin so big. Their chin-chin's are small and they only a bit of their shota foreskin gets pulled off when they're nearly erect. Hisoka's chin-chin was fully erect in there, no foreskin and all.

I thought en worked by detecting the shape and movement of an object, hence it could still detect a nen user through zetsu, otherwise the entire palace expedition crew could've just used zetsu and bypassed Pitou's detection entirely. Meruem wouldn't have been able to detect Knuckle with en, who was probably using zetsu when hidden in the crowd. Nobunaga said he could count the leaves as they fall through his en, meaning it also works on inanimate objects, most of which don't have any aura.
>>
>>150779620
But he did.
>>
>>150779620
Exactly. Knov didn't actually touch Pouf's en, otherwise Pouf would've detected him. He simply saw an aura so horrifying he immediately lost his will to fight. This really puts Gon and Killua's fortitude into perspective, since they faced the full brunt of Pitou's aura and weren't affected nearly as badly.

It was the nen that either preserved him and revived him, or maybe now his body is just being controlled by his nen. We'll likely find out in later chapters when "muh back pain" Togashi gets off his ass.

Why not just open a portal under Meruem's head and cut it off?
>>
>>150781970

That happy-go-lucky style was perfect. Part of what I thought made HxH so great was its deceptive innocence. If you didn't read a whole lot about the series beforehand or only read/watched Yu Yu before watching, the dark shit really catches you off guard. The art style mostly remains as a contrast to the fucked up shit that continues to happen throughout the series, which makes it that much stronger and disconcerting.

>>150783329
This, Chimera Ants really caught me off guard. The whole arc just made me kinda uncomfortable.

>>150783421
The series progressively became darker and more serious over time, and it was great, but that fucking Chimera Ant Arc just took everything downhill into a black abyss. it was also great

Heres why CA sucks:

>No Hisoka, Leorio, Kurapika; Phantom Troupe was only in a few eps

>very little character development; it seemed to me that they were trying to make Kite's death seem like a cataclysmic event that caused Gon to reach new levels of power, which he did, but then he went right back to being Gon in the next arc.

> it became a "power level" anime. One of the reasons I loved HxH so much is because it deviated from this formula, if I wanted to watch a "power level" anime, I'd watch YYH or DBZ.

>Kortopi and Shalnark get fucking obliterated.

I don't normally root for Hisoka, but I hope he reduces the spiders to a greasy smear on the road.
>>
>>150783490
To be fair it's always been pretty dark. Hisoka cut of a guys arms for bumping into him, beheaded an ex examiner, and killed that bird guy. Killua killed a total of three examinees and ripped out a guys still beating heart, and we saw an examinee unwittingly jump to his death all within the hunter exam. I'd say it becomes more nihilistic instead of being just darker/more serious.

Regardless, Kite doesn't fit into any royal ant class, since queens don't birth more queens on their own. Kite's irrelevant to the hierarchy.

The early covers do the happy-go-lucky theme enough. It leads you into what looks to be an adventure turned into survival of the fittest, which dives into a merciless world of blood and murder. Funny enough, I see Greed Island as a breather arc when you realize what comes next and what the villain of that did to those people with his ability.

This image is still bullshit as long Nanika exists, also it doesn't answer the question on why ONLY FUCKING GON could achieve it, though now that it was revealed that Gon is the son of Jesus Christ and Naruto 2.0 I guess they will give some explanation about Gon being "special" and now that I think about it the whole plot of HxH have been "Gon is special". "Desconstruction" my ass.
>>
>>150792304
I don't think this is the case, though that is an interesting power. My reasoning is that he's Netero tier in terms of strength and intelligence, but rather than acting like a quirky old man he's "young" and smug. He's strong, confident, and knows he's the shit.
As for his power, there really isn't any way to guess. Netero was a buddhist, and his power was a statue of Guanyin the goddess of compassion t. wikipedia. Given their character similarities, Beyond may have a power based on some god or goddess, but we don't know enough of his character to guess unless if there's a god/goddess of smug

Nanika is likely one of the calamities, which still hasn't been explained. Until we get an explanation fully explaining what Ai does (And we will knowing Togashi), everything has been explained in full why Gon-San wasn't an asspull. You didn't pay attention, everyone else knows about the restriction/contract and dares not to do so for fear of the aftermath. Gon was the only one naive enough to do so without realizing his mistake. Keyword on naive, it's why he looked the way he did when he transformed.
>>
>>150795856
You clearly didn't pay attention if you still think it's bullshit in the traditional sense. People like Kortopi who were more or less assassinated by someone as cruel and quick as Hisoka don't have time to make a restriction, and yes, not everyone has as amazing potential as Gon. It's been shown since the beginning that he was a bit of a dare I say it freak, so no, there haven't been any misleading things like "Naruto being the underdog who goes against fate". Anyone who thinks HxH is a muh deconstruction hasn't watched or read enough shonen, and are just rabid fanboys.

Thank you for saying it. I was hoping I wasn't the only one. The whole 30 or so episodes that include the fights at the palace were absolutely brutal to sit though. Every time someone threw a punch there was a 10 minute narrative about all the possible consequences or whether it would land or not. It was so annoying. I would honestly have preferred if those 30 episodes were condensed into 4 or 5 action packed episodes rather than all the internal monologues and trying to tell every persons story at once.

Ultimate way to watch HxH:
Start with 99 till Yorkshin is over, move into the manga for Greed Island, then continue in 2011 for the Chimera Ants arc(or simply skip it, is basically filler), then move to the manga again for the Elections arc and stay with the manga.

>>150801326
At first I thought the chapter was going to come out in september, and then that turned to november, and that turned to shit.
>>
>>150800857
Doom and Gloom wasn't tone of the manga either, the tone shifted from arc to arc. Also Kite's introduction was moved to the arc were the backstory would be most relevant. Just because it felt rust to ((You)) doesn't mean the anime didn't place emphasis on Kites importance to Gon.
>>
>>150801534
It was still a dumb move on Madhouse's part, it feels much more shoehorned in the anime even though it shouldn't make a difference.

I love the 2011 version, but I agree this was a misstep.

>>150801656
My guess is that it through off the pacing of their episodes, or someone really thought it'd do better at the introduction of that arc.
>>
>>150801534
Hisoka straight up murdering people all of a sudden was pretty gloomy, and the tone of the Trick Tower wasn't exactly what I'd call lighthearted, even though there was a definite level of playfulness with the first arc throughout. 2011 going for a morning slot initially, killed it for me. The very first chapter showed why Gon went out to become a hunter, with a character who was the trigger moment for that. Relevancy my ass.
>>
>>150801763
I can see that in all honesty. Even in the manga, that meeting seemed kind of random and unresolved until it wasn't. They sacrificed buildup for pace consistency maybe.

I mean I love both, but saying one is drastically better than the other is just stupid. At least the """asspulls""" togashi uses make sense within given rules of nen and the nanika business will be used later because nanikais from the dark continent.
>>
>>150800366
I still like how the direction went for the first adaptation. They did it correctly.
If you just copy paste the manga and put shitty colors on it, it becomes lazy and lacks impact.

You can't just do that, you need a director to fully take advantaje of motion, music and overall connection of scenes. 2011 HxH was such a shit in trying to make the anime enjoyable.
