Why do you hate the middle of the Chimera Ant arc so much

1. This is most certainly bait (and this is coming from someone who very much liked the CA arc)

2. Even if it is, why are you counting the CA arc 3 times?

Because it's longer than three arcs and because it has many amazing ideas and emotional moments, but the middle is a fucking slog written by faggots.

I'll never understand the love for Yorknew, it's just edgy gross shit with only one good fight. On the other hand Greed Island has two fucking amazing fights.

>>152053179
Length has fuck all to do with something's status as an individual arc. You cannot reasonably argue that the plots of the 3 acts of the CA are as separate from one another as Yorkshin and Greed Island.

The CA arc's second act may have been the weakest act, but it was absolutely necessary.

>>152052742
I'd put the entire CA arc at the end. It has some good moments, but besides that it was an edgy trudge and figuring out the whole operation was pointless was just a slap in the face. I'm kinda glad the series went on infinite hiatus because I was gonna drop this shit after that anyways.

>>152053405
But this boat ride is something to look forward to considering the shit that's about to go down.

>>152053405
If Togashi writes the boat ride to be like 40 or 50 chapters, the boat ride will probably stop after 6 years or so. Granted it won't be AS bad as Berserk's boat ride, because there will be actual action happening on this boat ride. The only eventful thing that came out of the Berserk boat was the Sea God fight.

It's just edgelord shit. The Phantom Troupe just mass murders people while a bunch of characters are introduced and job to them. The only exciting fight is between McEdgeMan and Uvo and it is super one sided.

On the other hand Greed Island is more lighthearted and just makes you feel good, dodgeball and the Genthru fight are fucking awesome, and there are some really clever moments like the training monsters, the Nen exorsist, and how they go about finding Ging at the end.

>>152054002
I thought it looked pretty nice. It apparently was split up though so there are some slight alterations to the art as it goes on.

>>152052742
This is a 2011 anime arc rating.
The manga and original anime had a much better greed island arc but a lot of the good parts were axed or moved into the chimera ant arc because of how horrendously bad it was.
Also Yorknew and Heaven arena were among the best arcs since they had the best combat scenes and training montages.

Greed island>Yorknew>Exam>Heavens Arena>Killua Mansion>>>Gon Island>Chimera ant

>>152054337
>Yorkshin is edgelord shit
>meanwhile Chimera Ant is fine

nigga Chimera Ant has more child murder than Now and Then Here and There.
let alone the nasty body horror shit, brain surgery, characters dying all the time, Gon going completely out of character and becoming a merciless motherfucker who takes a defenseless blind girl hostage.

What the fuck are you on that you think Yorkshin is any more edgy than that? The arc ends with Gon and Killua stopping Kurapika from killing because friendship for fuck's sake.

>>152056935
I'm actually curious on what gons stance on killing is. I mean if kurapika actually did kill people then gon would still be his friend he would just be mad for a bit. i know killua is going along with the not killing just because of gon.

>>152057081
Normal Gon is against it and is happy go lucky.

at the end of Chimera Ant where he goes full schizophrenic for no apparent reason because shit writing he's willing to kill Komugi though.

>>152054002
Greed Island OVAs are better than MadHouse version

>>152057147
No

>>152057145
>full schizophrenic for no apparent reason

that doesn't make any sense, how is Gon being schizophrenic?
You come up with shitty metaphors and claim things have shit writing?

And for your information, throughout the arc he was repressing his anger and waiting for them to explode on the actual ants fight when he found out Kite died.
Even Morel sensed a dark killing aura when Gon and him were sparring for a bit and knew he was going to have that rage eventually come out one way or another

How is that shit writing?

>>152057351
The idea that Gon could be so happy go lucky and then immediately on a dime want to kill a defenseless blind human girl he knows nothing about is ridiculous, that's the type of merciless evil you expect from the Phantom Troupe.

>>152056935
>Gon going completely out of character
>at the end of Chimera Ant where he goes full schizophrenic for no apparent reason

Jesus Christ. Why is everyone so intent on short selling Gon's character as if he's some trite Kid Goku rip off and can amount to nothing beyond that? Gon is intensely selfish, unyielding, and hypocritical. All of this was established well before the Chimera Ant arc. All the Chimera Ant arc did was deliver on all that build up. I don't know what CA shitters' obsession is with Gon not being able to be anything but a shallow character, but it's ridiculous. I swear you people only see what you want to see in this series and any detail you don't like is automatically chalked up to Togashi being a hack. I am genuinely convinced that half the reason these HxH threads are always shit is because 50% of the people in them have the reading comprehension skills of a fucking toddler.

>>152052742
>York New below any of the shitty HXH arcs

>>152057420
it wasnt immediately after kites death he stopped being happy go lucky. and during the invasion he was basically walking a fine line morally speaking. he was conflicted when he saw that pitou could care for another person because he thought that pitou was evil. if pitou would try to attack gon then the quickest way to hurt her is to take something she cares about away. we know that pitou doesn't care for komugi at all and was just following the kings orders. but if komugi dies that death would still mean something because the king gave her that responsibility.

I haven't seen either anime adaptation so this is based purely on the manga.

Chimera Ant > Yorkshin > Greed Island > Hunter Exam > Heaven's Arena > Chairman Election

Black Whale and Dark Continent have potential to be top tier.

Jojo really feels ahead of it's time with it's parody like EXPLAINING WHAT WE ARE SEEING ON SCREEN exposition.

It's like it was making fun of the garbage seen in HxH years before it was even written.

>>152057994
Togashi was inspired by Araki and I'm pretty sure Araki likes Togashi's work too. Don't be a faggot and try to start shit for no reason.

>>152057994
Because it was the first to do it, he wasn't parodying anything Araki just thought Speedwagon narrating everything would be funny and a lot of other mangaka seemed to think it was funny too.

>>152058063
The problem in HxH is that it's just dull and a chore.

Fukumoto is another who has made it work.

>>152057994
The vast majority of the exposition in HxH is shit that isn't readily understandable (yes even in the CA arc you spergs). Togashi experiments with simulating time dilation through narration once, and you people blow the whole thing out of proportion. I've yet to see someone describe the amount of narration in the CA arc, without hyperbole, once here.

Fresh and correct opinions from someone who just reread the series:

Chimera Ant > Yorkshin > Hunter Exam > Current arc (will likely rise higher) = Greed Island > Heaven's Arena >>>>>>>>>>>> Chairmen Election

>>152058128
I heard a lot about it before I started reading and when I finished I thought 'was that it?'. It was like 10 chapters and a cool idea that turned out ok. If I'd been reading it as it came out then all those hiatuses would have killed me, especially as those 10 were released between two breaks and nothing else but taking the arc as a complete work in mind it wasn't that bad and I'd say a worthwhile attempt, even if it was a bit on the long side.

>>152058183

>>152058252
It gets a bad rap because of people who had to deal with it while it was releasing, along with people who first experienced it in the 2011 anime where it feels far more gratuitous. Reading a volume a day, the palace invasion portion of the arc goes along reasonably. Slow, but still mostly reasonable.

>>152058658
Better lighting. Better animation for most of the fights. Better use of music. Better backgrounds. Mostly better character designs Anime only scenes that gelled beautifully with the tone and setting of the arc.

>>152058715
What do you mean unfinished? He fucking killed him. He left numerous corpses in Yorkshin that he didn't both mutilating for good measure, why should he treat Hisoka any differently? Why should he have forseen what Hisoka pulled when Hisoka himself only considered it because he had nothing to lose?

>Until we know what penalty or new restrictions Hisoka is paying for his new version of bungee gum
Why should that matter? It's not like it suddenly wouldn't make it an asspull if your reasoning for it being as asspull was actually true. The idea of Chrollo leaving things unfinished and the state of Hisoka's Bungee Gum are wholly unrelated on a story writing level.

>So it's ok that Hisoka can bypass the rules of nen
Alex, I'll take "Things that never happened," for $200. Everything concerning the fight and the aftermath was well within the previously established rules of nen that Togashi wrote years ago. If you forgot them, that's your own fault.

Is Cherry Blossom your favorite character from Fish Cake?

Greed Island was so fucking boring. Entire arc felt like a Bleach filler arc. But friends urged me to get through it because Chimera Ant was good, only problem is it took another 20 episodes of shit pacing for it to finally take off.

Honestly I think HxH peaked with the Yorknew aka Kurapika arc. Heavens Arena was good stuff too, should have lasted longer.

Never read the manga, don't really care.

>>152059235
>didn't know transmuters could tell their aura to give them a heart massage by talking to it
Bungee Gum expands and contracts. That's what it naturally does. Hisoka says this almost every goddamn time he uses it. When Hisoka wrapped it around his heart and lungs it expanded and contracted around the organs, thus squeezing and making them function again. That's just how CPR works. Him talking to it was just Hisoka being dramatic (as he usually is). No magic, no powerups, no convenient ability changes. Nothing. Just Bungee Gum doing what it's always been explained to do. You're trying to make this whole thing seem much more unreasonable by complicating it, but it's simply not true. Bungee Gum didn't act in anyway that was unbefitting of itself.

>it was a last second desperation move becuase Togashi didn't want him to finish him off
You're right that Togashi probably didn't want to finish him off. But that's not proof of an asspull. Not by a long shot. All that's proof of is that Togashi doesn't want Hisoka dead yet. Until you prove that he did something unreasonable to achieve that end, you've made no progress towards your original claim.

>ok, it's within the established rules of nen, but the fact that it happened is the asspull.
This sentence is the absolute definition of being obtuse.

Gon go full mad because Pitou kills Kaito with no mercy but "she" care about other human, like the fucking Pitou was good person.

Is so contradictory and normally one person go mad after this.

>>152059515

>>152059936
>and don't come with the whole Kurapika scenario when his judgement chain can carry a grudge after death
You act like Kurapika is the only case that this applies to, when that was never stated. Nen can come back from the dead. This is a long established fact of the series. It was even displayed by Pitou and Chrollo. You're grasping at straws here mate.

>>152059774
>Shouldn't the opposite happen?

I don't remember right but didn't Gon have the same reaction when the spiders found out about Uvo's death? It was already established so it's hardly an asspull.

Also, his reaction to Pitou wanting to heal another person is understandable, since he is human and not as flat written as Goku, for example. I think it added a bit of depth to his character.

>>152059493
>never read the manga
There's your problem.

>>152059936
He probably set the Bungee Gum around his heart and lungs before dying and poured all his nen into it with the order being to start contracting when life signs stop.

>>152060180

the nature of Hisoka setting a timer on just how and when he can make his aura contract after death is pretty stupid

>>152060871
He didn't set a timer. Pitou didn't set a timer either, and neither did the Meteor City elder.

>>152052979
An anon with taste, we find right here.

HxH is generally a better series than YYH. It has better arcs, better villains and a better world, on top of some othet stuff. However, with the exception of Kurapika and to a lesser extent Leorio, I think the main characters are far inferior to their YYH counterparts.

>>152059936
>>152060871
nen can still exist after death. remember when pitou didn't have a head and still attacked gon on instinct/nen?

and hisoka didnt set a timer, he was just betting on it working. which it did

>born in the timeline where Naruto and Bleach are released on schedule
>not born in the timeline where Togashi does at least a monthly release

>>152061983
Togashi should just move to Ultra Jump or something. His senpai Araki publishes there so maybe it's give him more motivation to pump out at least one a month.

>>152061514
>he was just betting on it working. which it did

that was the stupid part

>>152062220
He was going to die anyway so there was no harm in trying.

why was it stupid? he knew we was going to get killed, so why not try a last ditch effort to come back to life? there was no reason not to

>>152061465
I agree, I think Gon's a boring main character.
Im glad we are finally focusing on a better cast
I will miss Killua though

>>152062244
because it was a last second bet that worked way too much for his convenience

>>152062282
hisoka is super smart, as you couldnt already tell. he's going to do something thats for his convenience if he's able to. nothing he did was outside of the rules of the world. he took full advantage of the tools at his disposal like he always does

>>152062244
It sounded a little cheap to me. I mean, Pitou had such a huge devotion her king that it's little surprise to see Terpsichora trying to finish the job, but Hisoka seemed disproportionately casual about his death. Maybe if he had demonstrated some kind of strong fear of death or really communicated his desire to live on and shank motherfuckers, I'd be less rustled. I know I'm just being pedantic.

>Implying Killua isn't the worst one

>>152062377
i can agree that its a little like "ahhh cmon" but i still think it's completely fair and within hisoka's character to do something like that

>>152062245
Nah Gon and Killua aren't done yet. Nanika is practically confirmed to be an Ai and Gon probably snuck aboard the Black Whale after Ging told him how cool the Dark Continent is and he'll get lost in the storage area or something then finally pop out right at the moment all the fighting ends completely unaware as to what took place on the ship.

>>152062487
Keep your fanfiction to yourself.

>>152062479
Yeah I feel that way too. Just the fact that he literally said "might as well try this lol" left a bad taste in my mouth. Ultimately I'm glad that he lived on to do things while we still got to see Chrollo embarrass the living shit out of him.

Is HxH the Dragon Quest 7 of Shonen series?

>people still don't get how it worked.
We already knew that Hisoka could use remote gum (pic related), which is an example for residual nen not linked to the nen or body of the user.
We also know that nen users can apply conditions for the activation of nen, like with Gings sound tape that Gon had listened to during his 1st visit at whale island.
So with both of that alone Hisoka can make a simple nen technique to revive himself.
Look at it like the rewind of Gings tape 2.0 just instead of overwriting a tape once the tape ends, Hisokas heart gets pumped once he is dead.

Being slightly angry about merciless killers mourning a death is way different than going absolutely fucking crazy and threatening to kill a dying defenseless blind girl for no reason.

He went way too fucking evil way too fast.

>>152063261
> threatening to kill a dying defenseless blind girl for no reason.

Reread the arc anon, you're delusional. There was most certainly a reason that he threatened to kill Komugi. Pitou could have easily killed him on the way to Peijin. Komugi was collateral to make sure that didn't happen. It wasn't a nice reason, but why were you expecting him to be nice in that situation. Gon has more depth to him than you'd like him to have. I know you're not happy about it, but it's the truth. Get over it.

>>152063801
I was fine with him being mad that Pitou would fuck up Kite yet heal this girl, I just felt it was wildly off the handle that he threaten to kill her and MEAN it.

Even worse was Killua not slapping some sense into him when he was right there.

>>152063836
Dude this series has been dropping hints about Gon being an amoral hypocrite left and right since jump street. Gon's chimp out didn't just happen out of the blue.

>>152063836
>I just felt it was wildly off the handle that he threaten to kill her and MEAN it.
Why? He'd been slowly stewing in anger for over a month and continued to stew even more after watching Pitou heal Komugi for as long as she did. You act like this shit all happened in the span of like a weekend or something. This and Gon's potential to do something like this was built up both in the arc itself and across the span of the series.

>Even worse was Killua not slapping some sense into him when he was right there
What's even worse is that you've managed to misunderstand not only Gon's situation, but Killua's as well. Before I was only being half serious, but now I am actually telling you for real. You need to reread this arc. You clearly did not understand it well enough the first time around if you're missing this many crucial character details. Hell, you might as well reread the whole series while you're at it.

End of Chimera Arc >> Yorknew > Beginning of Chimera Arc >= Hunter Exam >> Heaven Arena = Election > Greed Island >> Middle of Chimera Ant

Fixed it for ya OP. This is what you should thing as an animeonly fag.

>>152057145
Normal gon is never shown to be against killing
What the fuck were you reading
People died constantly in the hunter exam and he didn't give a shit unless it was one of his friends
He's against kurapika trying to kill the spiders because they're extremely dangerous and he can tell that kurapika can't deal with the mental burden of having slain someone, at least during the yorkshin arc.

>>152065132
And by "unless it was one of his friends" I mean "unless one of his friends was involved with someone or something dangerous" because obviously the main four didn't die.

I always understood this as well. Gon and Killua are going on reverse paths.

Killua is gaining some humanity, Gon is aiming for power.

Gon is just as stupid as his father.

Chimera ant really reinforced this, then again it can be shitty character writing.

This statement always causes an uproar when it's posted in HxH threads:

I want to cuddle with and impregnate Pitou, who is a girl.

>>152065326
> wanting to do anything with worst girl/boy

>>152057145
>Normal Gon is against it

fuck no?

he literally doesn't give a shit about unrelated people dying

>>152065326
I've never seen that statement in any hxh thread. You're a bad liar.

CA must be truly horrible in 2011. Like otherwise he's able to watch total garbage in television series. But CA middle was too much?

if I was you, friendship ended with every person who not likes HxH

Will Togashi ever get off his fat lazy ass?

>>152066242
>fat lazy ass

>literally in such back pain that he sometimes has to crawl out of his bed

I would rather have him not write a single chapter of any manga ever if it would heal his back problems so that he can be happy. That's how grateful I am for his masterpiece (Hunter x Hunter) and his previous works too.

>>152066043
i also tried to get my irl friend to read this manga but he said that the artwork was too bad. even the new one. i finally convinced him to at least start watching the anime and he didnt like it either.

tho the loli master, hisoka and volley ball guy kinda save the arc, it is the weakest arc in HxH.

>>152066278
He should really just lay of the art department for a bit and get his assistants or wife to do the art while he just writes for a time.

>>152068793
Apparently Togashi wants to do a card game manga after HxH. I mean good on him for the enthusiasm but he should really be focusing on HxH for now, especially because he's said before he still has 4 more arcs planned for HxH with the Black Whale and Dark Continent arcs being two of those and together they'll easily be longer than the Chimera Ants arc.
