Hunter x Hunter

Togashi knows that if you want people to give a fuck about your characters they can't ALL look like disgusting looney toons rejects.

Because they feel like characters and not like some stupid cardoard cutouts.

Togashi plays more with the features of the face. A lot of artists kind of just settle for just a few different types or noses, eyes, jaws, headshapes, etc. and just mix and match them but togashi works with a wider range.

He also isn't afraid to make characters ugly, even if they are on the protagonists side. This way you're kept on your toes as a reader, especially in a story arc like this. You don't know who will help kurapika and who will be an enemy. You care about the jobbers because they could potentially be big players in this story.

>>161858699
Oda does the same and to an even greater extent, what the fuck are you talking about

>>161859003
I have seen at least 6 namis

>>161857778
This, I like OP's goofy secondary character designs and their quirks, but past some point they feel more like collections of quirks than people.

>>161858699

so can they see the current king's nen beast?

>>161857405
WTF is his actual name? Is it Babimyna or Bhavimaina? Is he Indians or something?

Togashi needs to go monthly.

Who's with me

>>161861596
Would be for the best honestly, he only does 10ish chapters a year. I guess the higher ups want him to stay though.

Have you heard of the bombers?

>>161861596
If I were Togashi I'd prefer my current deal. He has to work like most mangaka for a few months, but gets the rest of the year off. Monthly means a deadline hanging over your head the whole year.

>>161859867
ba-bi-ma-i-na
So Viz is most correct. It COULD be a "v" sound since the only way to render that in Japanese is with a "b" sound but until Togashi or his staff romanizes Babi's name on their own, there's no reason to think it's a "v" instead of "b"

I don't know how I feel about these characters

They're interesting but in the end they just feel like detours in getting to the Dark Continent and seeing Gon's grandma

Would I like this arc more if I accept Togashi will likely be dead before they get off the boat?

>>161859003
Oda has more variety in faces and body types(excluding women) but togashi does it without going into cartoony and unrealistic proportions.

>>161861992
Probably not. I actually like this arc, and I'd have no problems with it if I wasn't worried about Togashi dying and HxH ending in the middle of a transitional arc, most likely on a cliffhanger.

Taking bets, how will Gon get his nen back?

>>161862448
He swallows a bite of Hisoka's nen gum.

>>161857405
>>161857778
Unironically this.
I never thought I would give a fuck about Babi, Theta or Bill. Heck if it were your average generic manga, Ooito would be just a shitty and useless damsel in distress. However her character has been fleshed out and she's like a real heroine in this arc.

>>161862228
>>161861992
I would be incredibly excited with where this arc is going if the problem of Togashi's mortality wasn't hanging over our heads.

>>161863568
togashi is only 51 why does everyone act like he's on his deathbed.

>>161861596

Why would he? He have a stupid nostalgic fandom that tolerates his behaviour meanwhile doing nothing and still getting paid.

>>161865289
Because supposedly his back pain is debilitating to the point where he can't even move his body an inch. That's not a sign of man who is going to live to be a hundred.

>>161862448
No he deserves to be nenless and written out of the story for murdering Pitou.

>>161865289
11 chapters a year for 20 years is only 220 chapters. The chimera ant arc alone was 130 chapters. The dark continent arc would definitely be longer than it, and it hasn't even started yet - we're still in the opening stages of the Kakin succession arc.

He's not necessarily going to die, but he's probably gonna retire.

>>161866086
>The dark continent arc would definitely be longer than it

It's not his decision. He doesn't own hxh 100% and shonen jump doesn't do monthly.

Post things that would have already happened if the hiatus never existed

I'll start with an easy one

Gon vs hisoka

>>161857405
How is Theta a jobber? She didn't job.

>>161866315
Leorio finally gets his own arc. Climatic endgame fight is Ging, Hisoka, Leorio, and Morel vs some world ending calamity making its way to lake mobius to kill all humans.

>>161866662
Worry not, Togashit will have Maryging Freecsue take on the final boss of hxh on his own without breaking a sweat

Togashi should teach the author of The Promised Neverland.

>>161866605
She was a nen user who is scared of the princes nen beast. She passed the hunter exam which imploes she's physically fit and knows enough about nen to probably have an ability. Yet she was scared of the rape horse. If she just stopped and think she could realize that tse is the one with a disadvantage but her fear holds her back. This fear then establishes the awe and hype of tse and the rapehorse. Everything is leading up to her jobbing.

>>161866600
Gon vs Hisoka already happened.

>>161866662
Dude you should check out Naruto Shippuden! I think you'll dig it. We discuss new episodes every week on the subreddit, soooo see you later?

>>161866870
The actual fight where gon finally defeats him

>>161866935
Gon won't stand a chance without his nen, Hisoka isn't interested in broken toys.

>>161862448
He'll get a Nen beast.

Once gons fruits ripen again, hisoka will be there to harvest them

>>161866935
Gon does not give a single shit about Hisoka

>>161866829
I think most hunters haven't dealt with nen beasts before, and besides if she disobeyed tse rapehorse would kill her.

>>161862448
Raizen aka Don Freecss

So what kind of nen was Gon using when he transformed? Transmutation? Manipulation?

>>161857405
This is gonna sound like a youtube comment, but it's because Togashi genuinely understands human nature

>>161867390
It's the other way around. Once gon gets his nen back and eventually become stronger than his CA self hisoka will want him. What is gon gonna say? "no hisoka I don't really want to fight you" hisoka bothered the ever living piss out of chrollo for a fucking match

>>161867534
Enhancement probably

>>161867534
Enhancement.

Phinks showed us that enhancement techniques can have rules and restrictions applied to them

Enhancement. He enhanced his aura to the best it could possibly be.

Get the fuck out of here, while I'm inclined to agree because Togashi is indeed great at characterization, this shit
>>161858699
is BLOATED with so many secondary characters that I care so little for them. The story is progressing slowly, this set up is ridiculously huge, and now we have to wait for the Hiatus man himself to come up not with a handful of new nen abilities, but one for each of the remaining princes, most of the guards Kurapika's teaching. Nen abilities that will define these secondary future fodder instead of focusing on the central characters of the arc, like the princes themselves.

Most of these uglyass guards with little thought to character design aside their ugly faces, have very little character. For the most part, they will have one demeanor that will define their personalities.

This is turning out to be the worst exposition for any arc that I read in Hunter x Hunter. Greed Island and Chimera Ants had better exposition. No info dumps every chapter, characters are all introduced as time goes on while steadily moving the plot. And of course this is just my opinion, the exposition for those arcs were also not boring.

>>161867955
Team support hatsu.

>>161867934
Fuck off Killua go back to taking care of your trap brother

>>161867934
Gon was written out of the story because he'd make the other 3 irrelevant as far nen goes. Freecss are mary sues.

>>161867934
Pitoufags. Gon has the best development out of the main four. Only the second cutest though

>>161868056
Are you retarded? He probably was the weakest hunter in the extermination team

>>161867955
Emitter or enhancer. I'm not saying nen is genetic but alot of things point towards it.

>>161867955
There's no way his hatsu is that good.
He'll probably just use a bunch of hatsus he copied from other opponents because he never had the patience to create his own.

>freecs are mary sues

So after bashing kurapika and finally getting shut down you're attacking based gon now. Gon isn't a mary sue btw. Weaker than killua in all the arcs except for ten minutes in CA. Killua handles biskys training better than him. He is also retarded compared to his dad. Not even the physically strongest out of the 4. And kurapika could probably defeat his CA self. So you were saying?

blinky blowjob woo woo

>>161867564
This to be quite frank. Of all the shonen authors, I think Togashi really knows how to write real people, and not just characters in a story.

>>161868234
>And kurapika could probably defeat his CA self.
could he?

>>161866600
How do you think that fight will go? Will gon kill hisoka or just KO him?

>>161868234
What. Gon is estabilished as more powerful but less skilled than Killua during his training in GI and repeatedly called a monster during the dodgeball game.

>>161867373
man, i miss when hxh was more about interactions. i mean, i love nen and the strategies, but i'm tired of so much infodumping and rules and turns and whatever.

One Piece and Hunter x Hunter are completely different beasts in so many ways, and I'm not just talking about "quality" or something along that line. As such, they both have different strengths. Relative to battle shonen, One Piece is very simple and straightforward while Hunter x Hunter is complex and plays with expectations and genre cliches.

I feel like they are both pinnacles of battle shonen on different ends of the spectrum. As someone who appreciates though I can understand why some aspects of One Piece have grown tiresome after so many chapters, likewise I can understand the strange, unpredictable nature of Hunter x Hunter and it's story can cause interest to vary wildly from arc to arc or saga to saga.

>>161868340
Not that anon but
Emperor time + dolphin to suck suck.

Also gons jajanken isn't that deadly

Dodge rock

Smack away paper with emperor time enhancement

Dodge scissor

Unless gon could outsmart pika for an opening he loses 99% of the time

>>161868406
*appreciates both

>>161862448
Chrollo will steal Hisoka's Hatsu to kill him, then Kurapika will steal Chrollo's Hatsu and give it to Gon with his Dolphin. Then Kurapika will die while Gon is still using the Book, which will increase the power of the Dolphin and cause Emperor Time to be transferred to Gon as well. Thus Gon will inherit superpowered versions of Emperor Time, Stealth Dolphin, Skill Hunter and Bungee Gum. This will put him on Brion's power level.

>>161867978
>but one for each of the remaining princes, most of the guards Kurapika's teaching
They aren't geniuses like Bateman though. As most of the guards won't be able to develop full hatsu so quickly, they'll have to rely on the basics and their guns.
Now that I think about it any emitters will be the luckiest. Emission bullets, whether pure nen or coated on normal ones, is a no brainer and should be easy to develop.

>>161857405
Oda is trash tier that's why One piece is always third.

>>161868443

Gons reflexes exceed pitous in that state. Kurapika wouldn't be able to do shit to him and chain jail is off the table

>>161868346
Gon couldn't stay awake and kept having the rock fall on him. Gon also can't hold his ten as long as killua could in CA bisky training. Gon surely has more aura than killua but it doesn't matter. Killua would never be hit with jajanken. In all arcs shown to us gon has always been weaker than killua.

>>161868575
Which CA gon we talking bout buddy?

Angry CA gon?

CA gon vs knuckle?

Gon-san?

>>161868406
They had advantages: both began in the 1990s, a time when the reader was more patient, so the development of the arcs was gradual. Today everything needs to be fast or the reader gives up (series like Dr. Stone are a reflex of this).

And in the case of Togashi, he already has a hit that gives him confidence to try new things. Plus: he has time to think about the stories.

And because both series already have established audiences, they don't have to worry about sales or positions.

I think it's a lot easier to write like this.

>>161868575

>I feel like they are both pinnacles of battle shonen on different ends of the spectrum
At this point it feels kind of wrong to call One Piece a battle shonen. Oda has said there isn't really enough time to have fights anymore, and that the limit is about 1 chapter for any. Plenty of time for running around though...

>>161868761
Because togashi making one fight last an entire volume is acceptable

For all I know, a jobber is someone who is only there to lose and make someone else look stronger by doing so.
Babymaina and Bill aren't really jobbers because they are actual forces in the narrative whose presence makes a difference, but those new guards are for the most part jobbers.

ITT: HXHtards desperately clinging to this series that jumped the shark years ago, unable to accept the fact that this arc is the most absolutely boring piece of dogshit in not just shoneen but manga history and that Togashi will die before they reach the Dark continent.

I thought "jobbing" was established characters who lose to new characters to give an idea of their powerlevel, if we have no idea what the characters are capable of it kinda defeats that purpose. Otherwise you can say that about every character who dies/loses.

>>161872808
That's valid too.
To rephrase, a jobber is someone who is only there to lose, be it Vegeta, be it some faggy Tubeppa guard.
I could be wrong tho.

I don't care about One Piece, bitch I'm talking about Hunter x Hunter, why are you bringing other manga to compare?

This arc is needlessly boring. I can see there is tension in these chapters, but the constant introductions of guards is honestly ruining the manga. And the hiatus is definitely not helping. The chapters were off to a great start when we got focus on the princes and more important secondary characters like Theta and how her character was established in just one chapter where she was chosen to teach Tserriednich. We got a sense of her sarcastic personality with her interactions with her partner guard. But then Togashi kept cramming more and more guards, more and more inner monologues of every fucking possible interaction the character might choose to show how "smart" and "thorough" his characters are. But in the end they slow the story down, especially when you have so many unimportant guards doing it.

I loved it during the Chrollo vs Hisoka fight because we have constant inner monologues juxtapositioned with the action of just what each person in the fight might do. There was action and tension, and it was handled well.

This boat ride is just awful for the most part. Togashi is failing to make this arc exiting.

>>161873314
Finding something exciting or not is pretty subjective so I'm not going to argue with that, but there are like 6 chapters after Theta's introduction so it's pretty dumb to base your entire opinion on the arc from that sample. Plus the side characters' thoughts don't take that much panel time in the first place, I'm too lazy to go count but I didn't feel like they were the focus for a significant amount of time. There aren't that many characters that were prominent and had much panel time dedicated to them, I can only think of Yurikov and the assassin having some focus in the last couple of chapters.
Don't think it fucks with the pacing either, whenever a character says they're going to do something it happens quite quickly.

>>161870533
Nah Soft & Wet is ridiculously powerful and the last couple of Stands fought have been pretty OP. One was spread via sweaty hand prints that move on their own and can cover entire rooms that turn you and your Stand into putty when touched, or if you're touched by one of it's 20+ hands, the second (the one that shovel pic is from) was a Stand that turns people into zombies that run at the target and spread via blood, even a single drop was enough to infect so the shovel was used so he didn't have to make contact. The current enemy Stand is a swarm Stand like Harvest except the little guys spin around on your skin and dissolve holes into you that turn to gunk on the inside and leaves you as nothing but skin with trypophobia holes all over in a manner of seconds.

If anything power levels have been going up in JJL over the past couple of years.

Why are you making so much sense. OP and HxH both deserve praise for surviving this long while still going forward with the plot. I'd say Togashi has more leeway since he only shits chapter every now and then and he has established readership but that's beside the point

I agree, back then it was a completely different landscape. Arcs can last for hundreds of chapters and the readers won't instantly drop it the chapter doesn't contain fights or plot progression. The other big WSJ titles from this era, Nardo and Bleach, failed to capitalize on this characteristic and instead filled the chapters with needlessly long fights with little overarching plot. If for example, a newly introduced series uses OP or HxH's structure, it simply won't survive. Newer series would have to move their story quickly while simultaneously developing their characters and build an overaching story; and since they have to move the plot quickly, they are also are less likely to last long since the story will wrap up relatively quickly
I guess in 5-10 years time we'll see which series from this era that successfully made a long lasting impression

It's a coping mechanism. These characters will be irrelevant or dead in just a few chapters, but since Togashi spent so much time on them and there won't be anything else to discuss about HxH for the next year or so, you feel a bit compelled to care about them. In a regular serialisation you woul'd be used to jobbers coming and going on a regular basis.
On the other hand, One Piece has a living world and its narrative doesn't really allow to dwell too much on side characters, although some characters end up being build up through cover stories, which is a surprisingly effective technique.

Which fights in the manga have the best choreography?

>>161858699
In all seriousness, one of the most unique things about Togashi is how willing he is to make female characters unattractive or unconventional looking and not a joke, whether they're relevant or just background characters. Even love interests in a romantic subplot like Komugi, which is rare as fuck.

I wouldn't usually bother pitting the two together but this is especially obvious when you compare him to Oda, who clearly thinks female characters are a waste of space if they don't have huge tits and a stick thin waist. His female designs are an embarrassment compared to the varied and creative designs the men get but he can't prioritize artistic integrity over his dick, apparently.

Komugi has always been adorable though, even Pakunoda was pretty attractive, her nose even becomes a charm point.
I don't really get this claim of Togashi making unattractive female characters, even the ones that are supposed to look a bit off like Biscuit or Genkai make it up by having a transformation gimmick, what Togashi does is making important female characters attractive from a writing point of view, Oda doesn't, mostly because 99% of his characters are shallow as a puddle.

I seriously doubt Gon will get his nen back. I believe Togashi has enough artistic integrity not to return a main character just for the sake of him being a main character. Gon's story is over, he has accomplished his goals. I believe Hunter x Hunter will end around Kurapika's death on the Dark Continent and have things wrapped up nicely in a little bow. The reason why Kurapika is the new protagonist is because he's the only main character who's goals haven't been fully accomplished.

>>161881061
He fucks Sailor Moon every night though.

If you're confused as to why people like this arc because you think it's boring you have no idea why people like HxH in the first place. Maybe you just watched the anime because stuff blows up but what distinguishes HxH from something like Naruto Shippuden is its reputation as a "smart shonen." People dig the web of political intrigue from this arc.

This was the scene in Chimera ant that subverted my expactations in what I expected a main protagonist like Gon to behave. In some retrospect Gon, given the editing, could have been portrayed as a villan in the same way Uvogin from the spider's was.

>>161881187
>>161881248
What does Togashi have in mind for that anyway? At this pace there will be no Gyro arc.

>>161881304
It will be the arc where Togashi stops being an edgelord for once and makes an effort to showcase the good in humanity

>>161881187
>>161881248
Meh, I doubt he will do it. There's no real reason to have an arc about it. Like Hunter x Hunter's most prevailant motife overall is how huge it's world is and the huge number of different individuals we see on camera only just enough to get enough interested into them until it changes it to someone else. Therefore I don't see a reason why there will HAVE to be an arc that deals with Gyro or meteor city.

>>161881341
He already did that in the Ant arc.

>>161881361
The reason is Togashi alredy estabilished he wans to do it.

>>161881341
The thing about HxH it never really portrays anyone as good or bad. Everyone is just sort of human, taken with the good and the bad. Sure, we get some crazy psychopaths in the mix but there are a lot of realistically portrayed "wholesome people" like Morel for example.

I hope Babimyna sticks around and continues to be a major character for this arc beyond just the succession war, for the little he's done he seems really likeable and he's also the least cunty of all Benjamin's soldiers, so if Benjamin dies then Babimyna doesn't seem the sort to continue his assassination mission out of blind loyalty to a dead man like some of the other soldiers likely would.

Yeah, even with Knuckle, who is a great guy, there's still that Gon-level selfishness that every Hunter has. In this scene, Knuckle deviates from the plan of God's Alibi to get revenge for his friend's honor, despite it being a really stupid thing to do. There are many lives at stake, but this good guy Knuckle still puts himself and his friend at the highest importance. Even a generally good guy has questionable morals in this manga.


Not to mention when Gon was going to kill a blind girl.

Gon going to hanzos country and hanzos family asking to save him from DC?

I highly doubt ging would ask gon for help when he should know a ton of hunters who could potentially be stronger than gon.

>>161882222
Gon won't go to the DC.

>>161882222
Gon won't be going to the DC. At least not during the Manga. He couldn't care less about his grampa.

More than likely the crew brings some DC calamity that Gyro will steal and unleash. Then Gon could leave for the DC in the epilogue.

Rammot, Cheetu, Leol etc. Rammot was legitimately embarrassing. Even Ikalgo, Colt and Meleoron were meh to me. In the end I only really liked Welfin outside of the Royal ants and familiar ones(Palm, Kite).

This is one of the many qualms I have with hxh. And no I'm not a one piece fanboy since I have alot problems with one piece too. But while oda might not understand female proportions, he understands how impactful death can be to people. In real life when someone dies it typically has an impact on at least somebody depending on the person

Many characters will die in hxh to wow the readers. Some are acceptable like shalnark and kortopi while others is ridiculous. In the hunter exam killua kills two people for bumping into him. Why? That's two lives that died to a kid upset because an old man tricked him into wasting his time playing a ballgame he couldn't win. Those two examinees died to something they could have never foreseen. He didn't even give a warning. Just killed them

In yorknew togashi was great I can't lie. He showed how squalas death mattered even though he was a side character and showed how even the bad guys still have people who'll cry for them but then we go to greed island and we see all the hunters working together and talking about how if they just work a bit harder there goal of beating the game will happen. It's all nice and lovely and then BAM genthru starts his countdown nonsense and kills that crying guy. Alot of other people die to genthrus nonsense. And guess what, genthru gets healed at the end of it.

Chimera ant arc.

Ponzu dying in some sick fashion for what purpose? To show how strong a chimera ant who didn't even have his named showcased is? What about the two dogs? Rover and the other dude. They died so pathetically and no one moved to save them? Meruem just kills people for the whatever reason. In the last moments with komugi he fucking tells her he'll kill her if she is taking it easy on him during their final matches. And then turns out she was just out keikakuing him all along AGAIN. I do admit that kites death was great. It showed that children don't act the way you think they will when someone important to them dies

>>161882660

>>161883579
Read the manga. Anime doesn't cover everything but if you like watching fights then just look up the clips on youtube.

>>161883130
Ponzu died because the Chimera Ants eat humans. It would make literally no sense if the Chimera Ant that goes around gunning people down suddenly decided not to eat her just for the sake of the plot. Same with Meruem, he is a child learning how to eat so he ends up killing people to do that. He's also a spoiled kid who is not taught until much later that you can't just kill people for making you upset.

>>161883579
Read the manga, 99 is worth a watch but it only goes up to like a third of the story. You can watch 2011 if you're really starved for content.

>>161883952
>but his character arc is essentially finished as far as I can tell. Leave him out.
I wish Killua's story ended at least as good as Gon's so we could be done with both. I will protect Alluka forever is really shitty unless Togashi decides to include them again somewhere.

>>161882607
For example, make Nanika work like this:
Whenever a person asks Nanika a wish, that person has to give Nanika an organ. The first organ is always something easy like a finger and the third is always something lethal like your heart.
Nanika can't create stuff. She has to take it from someone else. The power always goes for the quickest shortcut and tries to take it all from one source. So if you ask for money, Nanika moves the money from a bank's vault to your house.

Also explain Gon's physical damage in better terms. For example, say his damage was caused by his "nen circuits" being destroyed, and exploding within his body burning him from the inside out with all the power of Gon-san once the transformation began fading. And he also lacks an arm because Pitou cut it. And all his cells are weak/tired/dying because of the metabolism acceleration they had to endure during his transformation. So it isn't some unexplained damage. Some hunters with healing powers try to heal Gon but they say their methods don't work because they rely on using the target's Nen circuits to accelerate healing.

Thus the following plotlines get added into the story:
Leorio trying to find a cure with the other Hunters and doing his best with his medical knowledge just to keep him alive.
Killua trying to find an organ donor for Gon along Alluka.

At the end of the story, Killua and Leorio both have to give up two organs to Nanika, meaning they can't make more wishes without dying. And Gon doesn't recover his arm, but gets a Conjured Prosthesis.

>>161885296
Don't bully him too hard, anon.
He was raised in a society that punishes anyone who fights back at all. He can't comprehend someone like Pika NOT just sitting there and crying over not being able to do anything about the Troupe.

Are you guys actual faggots or something? In war time do you think people aren't numb to the people dying around them? Do you think if someone with the title "hunter" or is in the pursuit of it dies it has to be as tragic as your nan shitting herself as she takes her last breath?

>You care about the jobbers because they could potentially be big players in this story

No I don't

>He also isn't afraid to make characters ugly, even if they are on the protagonists side.

The problem isn't that they're ugly, but their hideous faces point out just how meaningless they will be in the grand scale. This pretty boy guard has more thought put into his design and will play a bigger role>>161857405
compared to these jobbers>>161858699

So your praise for Togashi's bravery in making characters ugly falls short. It isn't that he isn't afraid to make characters ugly like Melody, which arguably has a lot more thought put into her design than these ugly goons, but just that he's trying to give these one dimensional fodder some depth. My problem is that instead we can focus on more important characters like the guard OP posted, the weirdo guard that can tell a person's nen type by sight, or fucking Bill. But instead we are given pages on cardboard cutout goons instead showing their meaningless internal monologue like it will make me more invested.

At least Togashi had a better idea on what chimera ants to humanize in the CA arc and which ones to keep at minimum. The only ones that got inner monologues are ones that moved the narrative, not

>He doesn't care about Oito and Woble.

We had a whole page of Kurapika looking at the baby with a melancholic look pitying at the dire situation Woble is placed on.

And then we get this endearing moment, the moment that reassures Oito that she can trust Kurapika.

Of course this resolve will be tested when Wobble and/or Oito is inevitably put in a dire situation with the spiders or Prince Tserriednich.

But no, that wont be until years from now so we can only speculate. We could have Togashi build up more on Kurapika's character but instead we keep getting these garbage guard characters and the hiatus to slow down the story.

>>161889414
fair enough, Kurapika getting angry at that mobster wasn't really a climatic moment in the series though

It's a necessary evil to get the exposition out of the way so that we can transition into the real meat of the arc. It happened in G.I and CA. This is no different, just a lot more dense.

I fully understand why there are so many characters. Seeing how they are royalty, having a sufficient staff for protection seeing how the possibility of assassination vastly increases in a confined space is perfectly logical. And to some extent, I can appreciate that Togashi doesn't treat them like decorations and goes to the effort of giving some of them certain qualities like one of them being a good chef or the visible contempt the bodyguards and assistants have for Kachou in addition to their distinct faces. You aren't supposed to care for each and everyone of them, this arc is essentially survival horror but at least the people dying and meant to die feel like people and not effigies of them.

Here's the thing, I would completely welcome that if the author was not known for Hiatuses. Think about how the story is progressing, it's ridiculous. On another hand, what use is giving these ugly nobodies characterization, by the way when I say this I mean 3/4's of the guard staff. There are a few that stand out and you just know there's more in store for them but I feel that some pages like this one don't move the story to the next scenario. It just gives us insight on a character I do not care about.

And again, the problem is not that he's humanizing these fodder characters, but that it's draggin everything down. I want to appreciate what Togashi's doing, but I just can't with his track record.

This page for example, we could have had a full page or half a page of Halkenburg talk to his guards personally instead, giving HIM more characterization while telling his guards about his "mark of resolve" showing individual reactions of his guards. The focus would be on the prince, you know, the figure that matters in moving the story ahead and would effectively do the same thing this page did by showing the guard's mannerisms through their reaction.We could have had half a page or a full page of Sevanti interacting with her guards to give us a better look at a different queen's personality, and have the guards react the same way they did here.

I'm might be going full "autismo" here, but I'm really dissatisfied with these past chapters.

If it's going to be a slow ride, then at least make it engaging and entertaining while giving characterization to the central figures of the arc over the fodder. Most of the guards unappealing and boring, but that's just my opinion.

We're wasting time with these nobodies. I will only eat my words, absolutely everything I said, when Togashi delivers next year and shows me the result of all this build up.

>>161891137
Yeah but your suggestion is pretty retarded, you get essentially the same characterization in twice the amount of space
Not to mention the focus is obviously on those characters because they're the ones who are immediately relevant to the situation about teaching nen

He's probably working with the Hunter Association and handling all the CA affairs, considering Netero himself took him under his wing it's fair to assume he's currently Morel's protegée.

Gon has aura. He doesn't need help to get Nen back, all he has to do is learn it again. Everything is back to normal.

>>161894197
Literally everyone has aura in HxH you retard, you need it to live

>>161894197
Everyone has aura you dumbass, Gon can't use his aura or nen anymore and deserves it for being a fucking idiot, he wasted his potential for petty revenge and has to pay the price. He's always kept doing retarded shit that puts his life at risk ever since he became a hunter and doesn't have what it takes to become a real professional.

>and deserves it for being a fucking idiot, he wasted his potential for petty revenge
He wanted revenge, but he killed Pitou. It was his job as Hunter. If Pitou had not been held back many would have died. He was even ready to fight Youpi when the mission started.

If that was the case Ging would just have told him it was that simple, saying "oh but he has aura!" is absolutely worthless.

Ging told him it was a perfect moment to decide what to do, ie, live his life as a normal kid or re-learn nen and go journey again, it's up to him.

>>161894809
He literally told him he'd be ungrateful if he wanted more than being alive, you know there are more alternatives than just being a nen user or not right?

Ging never said his case was complicated. All he said is that it would be too much to expect things to be perfect. Gon is the same as in chapter 1, he can't use nen because his nodes are closed. He is no different from the people who want to learn it on the Black Whale right now. When he met Ging, he could not see his aura. You guys overcomplicate such simple things even though we know the mechanics already.

>>161894880
>you know there are more alternatives than just being a nen user or not right?
You know he is a Hunter, right? Wanting more than being alive would be too much, but now he can relearn Nen with the slow method and chill at his place while he is thinking about his future. That's all there is to it. All Hunters have to learn Nen.

>>161894889
