It's probably the most boring fight as of yet in HunterxHunter.

Uvogin's requiem is the interesting scene in hunter.

Why is Chrollo such a pussy he can't make his own power or ever do a legit 1 on 1 fight? He always surrounds himself with other Troupe members using them as bodyguards like a pussy and he has to steal other people's powers. He couldn't even win against Hisoka without having to use the audience like the pussy he is.

>>156440366
So what would you have done instead ?

>>156445952
Maybe it's part of a greater plan to lure his enemies into underestimating him and going right into the ambush he pr-

wait nevermind. How the fuck did that even happen ?

>>156446284
Chrollo can't do jack shit by himself that's how, his friends weren't even able to save him until Kirapika put that Nen curse on him.

>>156446284
because he's that much into bondage

>>156445952
That's his character. Not everyone is a brawler in HxH.

>>156440366
it was very random and strange. It was cleat that togashi felt he needed to put something out there sadly.

Sorry it wasn't the super epik brawl you were hoping for, anon.

Maybe this might tell that not every fight has to boil down to high speed punches, laser beams, and uber powerful "hidden" techniques/power boosts that's running battle shonen further into the ground.

I liked the fight. At first I was convinced it was going to be utter shit when Qworof decided to explain his powerset, but then he got other cards under his sleeve and he only explained things to Hisoka to deceive him, so I gave it a pass.

The fight was overcomplicated, and not in a good way, but I liked that the characters acted according to their character. Kuroro wasn't interested in fighting, he's a thief, he wasn't going to go 1 vs 1 and without cheating against one of the best fighters (and donning the heaviest plot armor) in the world.

While I'm not still sure of the proper power sequence he used, the fact that he threw the audience against Hisoka without any care was pretty HxH, where people cassually kills without a second thought, and it was interesting to see that even fodder could eventually wear down Hisoka, instead of him being an unstopabble killing machine.

On the other side, for all the care Kuroro had shown during the fight, the entire Troupe dropped the ball hard during the end. I can believe that an experienced Nen user like Hisoka would know and exploit the fact that Nen gets stronger after death, but on the other side the Troupe should know it too, and they should be wary of a death that lets the body mostly unharmed. Severing Hisoka's head, just for precaution, wouldn't have costed them anything.

Hisoka a shit.

>>156440366

the point is why wouldn't kuroro, who doesn't take unnecessary risks, NOT fight in this manner?

and it was pretty fun to read with the constant shifts in who appeared to be winning.

>>156445952

he's a thief and a planner. he doesn't care about honor or being the strongest.

Why bother ? It's not like people regularly use this trick, Hisoka pioneered it because he's just that good

>>156447450
That was Hisoka's ability at play rather than something anyone can do. What's amazing is how he managed to pull it off right before dying, and also how he managed to die in a way that it would work as intended.

All things considered, I think this fight had a severe case of laziness on top of it. It makes much more sense for Hisoka to already have that nen set up in his organs instead of doing everything at once, and focus on controlling the conditions surrounding his death. Instead of having Hisoka think what he's about to do, Togashi should have went with his usual narrator thing, which would look much better.

I do think it makes sense to completely destroy you opponents body in HxH, as there could be traps or information left on it, it seems Togashi completely overlooked that.

I hope Hisoka kills all the spiders and Chrollo ends up breaking down when he realizes he has no one left to protect him and could get ambushed by Hisoka anywhere anytime.

And then he sends Chrollo's head to Kirapika as a gift

The Phantom Troupe are known for thier overkill so you would expect if Hisoka was some ordinary mook that he'd be in pieces.

I think it's a matter of respect in a way. None of them seem to harbor animosity towards Hisoka even though he was a traitor. And Machi as it seems kinda sorta likes a bit, at least before he went all Slasher Clown on them.

>>156447926
Edgy.

I'll allow it.

Gon will defeat Hisoka and turn him into another Razor.

>>156448175
Gon's nen crippled for life and deserves it.

>>156448270
I think nannika couldnt repair gons nen, instead the nen gon has currently belonged to someone else. He will do the nen test again and get a different category.

>>156447055

It was very unlike him, he usually picks up the manga back from a hiatus and smoothly transitions to the next chapter. I think he was impatient to get to Hisoka returning from the dead and killing two Spiders so we could get into the Dark Continent Arc.

I don't know, maybe it is like him. He seems to thrive of off bursts of inspiration and motivation but then it kind of simmers away. That would explain why there was little build-up, reasoning or explanation for why Hisoka's last name was mentioned, or why there was even a fight in the Heavens Arena in the first place.

Either way, it feels as if he's lost all motivation by this point to continue the story, which is a huge shame.

>>156449825
I'm not saying he deserves it, but hey you gotta pay the price anon.

>>156445952
Chrollo is pretty impressive. Hisoka is just a monster. What Hisoka lacks in sheer power he makes up for with ill intent and creativity. Dude is 100% lethal.

Not everyone is a brawler in HxH, an aspect that I wish Togashi focused on instead of turning it into a battlemanga. I mean, keep the fight but he hinted at a lot of interesting concepts to being a hunter and immediately withdrew them all.

>>156449825
They aren't things either and the Royal Guards are half human except for Youpi.

Not once has anybody ever called Meruem an it. They only start that shit with Pitou because of assrage over HIS gender so it's better spouting off "Pitou's an ant, lel."

>>156449509
For killing >>156449516 even though throughout the who series he let serial killers and other scummy people that have done way worse get away just because they didn't hurt anyone close to him.

>>156449755
I hope that if the story ever continues that Leorio gets to keep being the MC with Kirapika. He has the least amount of screen time and deserves better, he's been treated more as a side character.

It was more than just fodder waves, it was him finding a way within the crowd and Hisoka trying to figure out ways to deal with the waves, plus the explosions. Though I did expect it to be more complex based on the first couple of chapters. Hisoka never really had any good plan to get to Chrollo.

well the idea of being hunter is being free isn't it.I'm more concerned about who's taking care of the organization while the zodiacs are gone bean can't do it all by himself.

Sounds like it's too smart for you.

>>156447805
>That was Hisoka's ability at play rather than something anyone can do. What's amazing is how he managed to pull it off right before dying, and also how he managed to die in a way that it would work as intended.

In other words, a convince use of a power for the perfect time that has never been foreshadowed before also known as assssspuuuuuull.

>>156440366
I loved it. I actually didn't mind Hisoka's asspull. The only thing I disliked was the reason Hisoka's hand exploded. It just didn't seem like it should work that way and really opens a big can of worms.

>>156452879
Yeah i was expecting hisoka to fake his entire body getting destroyed by explosion while using texture suprise to hide himself in a hole he dug under the corpses.

>>156447805
>>156447791

The point is, knowing that people can do freaky shit with Nen after their deaths, and observing that Hisoka engineered things to make sure he died by asphyxiation, they might have done it only to be sure of his death.

>>156452879

Not neccessarily an asspull, it was established that Nen becomes more hax after death, it wouldn't be surprising that the biggest Nen masters could pull off freaky shit like that (maybe it's not something common, but there must be a few precedents). And that's why it kinda bothers me that the Ryodan didn't do anything about it, and just went "welp, yeah, he's dead, it hasn't passed enough time for having actual brain damage but that's enough".

Take Dio vs Jotaro, for example. The man listened to Jotaro's heartbeat from a safe distance to make sure he was dead, and then he took a traffic sign to smash his head from a safe distance, just in case he was faking it somehow. That's the level of autism that one would expect from Kuroro after going so far to make sure Hisoka was dead.

He was going to fail anyway, because there's no way Togashi would kill Hisoka before such a big arc, even if he never finishes it.

There was a faction that was against it during the elections, and I think Cheadle would agree, but with all the shit they're about to face, I don't know if she has the time to do that, or if it's even convenient. I don't think they're going to make friends on the New Continent, and making themselves liable for the crimes they might commit doesn't seem a good idea.

Now that I think so, are Hunters really allowed to kill people legally, or it is simply that the rule of Hunters can't go after other Hunters plus the fact that law enforcement probably can't do shit against most Hunters results in the fact that you can murder people and nobody can do anything about it?

My biggest gripe is that the subtlety HxH used to command is gone all of a sudden. The writing used to be incredible in past arcs with one or two lines or an expressive panel adding huge intrigue and depth to a character such as Hisoka saying "I've never been interested in broken toys" or Chrollo explaining how Indoor Fish works with a placid smile on his face, immediately transitioning into the Requiem scene but now it's just "HUMANS ARE SO INTERESTING HEH HEH" "HOW DISAPPOINTING NOW I HAVE TO REVEAL MY FULL POWER".

My biggest gripe with this fight is how it came out of the blue Those chapters should've been spent on the boat instead of this bullshit. I'm really happy we all waited 2 years for a shitty fight. Togashi could've easily written Hisoka and Chrollo into this arc through other means.

>>156467399

Actually it wouldn't be withou consequences.
A hunter who murders would naturally get a bounty on his head and become the target other hunters.

Below is just my opinion

You can also die in the hunter exams and all, so basically this serves to weed out the weaklings.
For whatever reason, well probably for his amusement, Netori only wants strong people to be hunters.

So >>156451750 is completely right.
