So how will Togashi prevent Alluka from becoming a game breaker?
Hunter x Hunter II

-
Full chapter is out for those of you who haven't seen the spoilers. http://www.mangareader.net/hunter-x-hunter/336
-
I just love this manga lol. This chapter was great, I loved the emotion.
-
So Illumi finally figures out the rules regarding It and Alluka that apply to Killua.
Yeah, uh that cannot end well even if Killua tells It not to come out any more.
-
Confusing chapter,it was okay overall just wish drawings to be little better to convey this kind emotion scenes.

Not a big fan of this current arc.
We basically have to sit through reading a novel worth of explanations every chapter on how this girls powers work who just showed up out of nowhere. If Oda was in charge he would have dropped her name or something hundreds of chapters ago. Only a name is enough for me.
But no we get thsi surprise sister who can magically fix anything but at cost of something greater, but then no, there is a twist that Kilua can do it for free. Gon fixed, everyone all good, everything dandy. Just seemed like a huge waste of time. Should have just had Gon revert back to normal after his attack and skip this hwole business.

are you fucking serious? This is one of the dumbest things I heard in my entire goddamn life.
"Hey guys, what's the fucking point of creating an interesting scenario where family members are being played against each other through deceit and lying, while we just could have skipped it all because my peanut brain is not able to keep up with the story."
Fucking lord, my brain can't even process the stupidity of this post. How the fuck was Nanika "out of nowhere". We always knew that there were two personalities, we just didn't know how it all would play out, because at that point of the story Togashi had to keep it ambiguous to make it more interesting.
Honestly, usually I wouldn't give a damn about a post like this, but seeing a Fairy Tail enthusiast write something like actually made my piss boil. Hinscher, you don't have the mental capability to enjoy this manga, which is really fucking sad because It means you are somewhere on the level of a fourteen year old. Congratulations. -
why doesn't killua just wish away everyone's memories of alluka and just spam hax wishes that allow him to protect her more effectively? nanika's powers just seem far too broken in this manga's world.
-
Hinscher, just like to say you're wrong
we saw Alluka back in chapter 229, meaning Togashi did introduce her over 100 chapters ago
-
s.
you should know by now that hinscher is a troll. . . I have had him on ignore list from long ago, you should probably do the same lol.

Art quality was a little ehhh last week. This week really low for HXH. I hope Togashi's okay

I know exactly whats going on. I just found it all POINTLESS.
Just a dragged out explanation after explanation all just to fix up Gon back to normal with no side-effects or consequences.

Sorry but alluka/nanika was actually foreshadowed hundred of chapters ago.
We've known for ages that there is one zoldyck child that we didn't know. -
Sorry but alluka/nanika was actually foreshadowed hundred of chapters ago.
We've known for ages that there is one zoldyck child that we didn't know.ok so I was wrong about her being named or shown picture. whatever it was.
But still she was not hinted at, at all what she could do. Never said she was dangerous. Never said she was godly or anything like that. So when Gon is in a state where there is nothing in the entire universe that can be done for him, she just magically has the ability to grant wishes.
To me it was a long drawn out explanation, after explanation with twist explanations thrown in all in order to be an ass pull save Gon.
But of course HxH is a holy bible on this site, so any negative comments get tossed into trolling.
Well whatever, I haven't enjoyed HxH in a while now, so I'm out. Have fun on your next giant hiatus. I hear the author is "sick" again.
-
I said it last week and I repeat myself again: I'm very dissapointed how the Alluka/Nanika storyline was handled. I honestly believe, that togashi wanted some epic mind battle regarding the three unfulfillable wishes to happen, with illumi involved too. But in the end, he couldnt find a way to pull it of and changed his story last-minute. That was back then in the forest, when it was revealed, that the whole chase was unneccesary in the end (I'm sure gotoh is glad, that he died for nothing).
And this now is just bad writing. The whole manga is centered around how things are balanced out and that there are consequences for your moves and that you have to pay somehow for excessive power.
-
I logged in for the first time in months to tell you that you are an abject idiot, Hinscher. Enjoy the (dubious) distinction, but please stop trolling the thread.
-
wow…. that was... not what I was expecting this whole wish thing started out so damn awesome, and really it just ended to easy for killiua, he's the exception, i get why but it's stupid, the whole sacrifice we thought would happen from the requirements of the extremely strong wish got swept under the rug because killua is a good big brother.... these last few chapters just haven't been my cup of tea I thought up until these last three it was some of the best writting I'd seen in a shonen manga
-
Now I know Killua meant when he said "If they knew they would fill my head with needles again".
Now that they know Killua can ask for things with no consequence, the family (mainly Illumi) are going to want him to do things he obviously doesn't want to do.
The solution? Put a needle in his head.
-
Love triumphs over everything.
This is what I get from this. If it wasn't for the affection Killua has for Alluka and Nanika, there would've been 10000+ deaths for the wish.
But don't think that it doesn't come with a cost, it's a very heavy responsabilty to protect this power.
And don't forget Illumi's image of him playing puppeteer = that's the price + other dangers we don't know of yet.I'm satisfied with the situation.
-
! Ha! So, the way Killua asks (or orders, I suppose) makes all the difference? When he makes a wish, he uses "shite" and needs to complete 3 pesterings. When he gives an order, he uses "shiro," and there's no cost. So, basically, there was a difference in how he was asking in previous chapters, but that difference wasn't translated because it didn't seem significant. XD Not that there was anything wrong with the previous translation . . . but had they known, they would have made an effort to make the difference in English. One would hope, at least.
So is there now a diffrence for Killua, if he orders or wishes? Or is he complettly free of any problems, no matter how he makes a request?

Have you even read the chapter? No consequences? Did you miss the part about Illumi figuring it all out and becoming one of the biggest threats of this entire series? So what, just because Illumi is home again you people really believe this is over? Killua still has to protect Alluka and Nanika from her brother. That's a big fucking deal, especially considering what an murderous psychopath Illumi is. How is him having a shot at controlling an incredibly dangerous entity not a terrible consequence. If anything, things are at the worst right now.
I also love how you completely ignore the whole chairman election. -

Illumi was seemingly the bad guy since day 1 for whatever reason. Now we have Protect little sister arc. nothing special. In the end it boils down to probably a killua vs lillumi battle. We knew that was goign to happen since the hunter exam. We didn't need to throw in a sister for that.
Its like togashi setting up some scenerio for Hisoka and Gon to be at ends. Its just unneeded extra padding on an already established destined fight.
Or in One Piece sake. It would be like Blackbeard wanting to steal Brook's fruit or something. its not needed. There is already enough reason for Luffy to fight him.
-
Story isn't over yet folks. Not all prices have been paid. Killua swore he'd stay by his sister's side forever. He can't do that AND be with Gon. And with his family figuring out how to break her powers…
So how will Togashi prevent Alluka from becoming a game breaker?
She's going to die, obviously.

Going a bit overboard here.

You see, this is exactly why I hate your stupid ass. "All this did"… You realize that this is a huge deal, right? Illumi, who was until now just a wall for Killua to overcome has now legit chances at becoming an actual villain instead. He's not going to let go of Alluka, which is going to end with her death, like robby said, or Illumi dying. Again, really fucking imporant.
Illumi was seemingly the bad guy since day 1 for whatever reason. Now we have Protect little sister arc. nothing special. In the end it boils down to probably a killua vs lillumi battle. We knew that was goign to happen since the hunter exam. We didn't need to throw in a sister for that.
And this is reason 2 why I want to beat your head with a shovel. What you just described is the very basis for telling a story. You knew Illumi and Killua would have a fight someday, so the story that has been build around is pointless?
That is like you saying: "puh man, all that story is just awful, making me gasp think?! I wish there was a shitty abriged version of it for me!"Its like togashi setting up some scenerio for Hisoka and Gon to be at ends. Its just unneeded extra padding on an already established destined fight.
…what are you talking about?
Also, to everyone who thinks the whole chasing part at the beginning was pointless, It really wasn't. The only reason Killua did what he did was to heal gon, to most important thing obviously, but also keeping as much as possible secret from Illumi. Of course he could have told Illumi the whole thing about healing not having consequences, but that would and has been ultimately one of many clues that lead to Illumi's discovery about Alluka and Nanika. Killua wanted to prevent that during this whole arc and he failed. So how was everything easy in the end?
Also, stop whining about HxH being liked here because the shitty manga that you read get trashed daily. Your whole "I'm just telling the truth here and being branded as a troll for it"-routine is extremely pathetic. Maybe the reason why everyone jumps at the shit that you write is because you are an actual moron who doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about, and as a result gets gangbanged by this community every day.
If this forum is full of judgmental and aggressive fanboys like your constant whining indicates, why the fuck don't you just leave, it's not like anybody here isn't sick of your miserable existence. -
You had conspiracy, trolling done right, fast paced action, mystery all in one arc that didn't take forever and a day. What else could you ask for honestly. Love One Piece like everyone else but Togashi knocked it out the park with this arc.
-
Not very satisfied with the conclusion. So basically, Killua turns Alluka/Nanika inoffensive? Good, then. . .
Of course, this will turn out bad in the future, and I'm sure shit will hit the fan, but I have this bittersweet feeling, that this arc started incredibly good, and ended somewhat. . .ok-ish, but not as outstanding. Same with the election.
It feels like HxH all around to end things a bit anticlimaticaly, like not everything has to end with a BOOM, like in One Piece. One Piece is flashy, and HxH likes to play with a little bit more reality based premise; chance and luck play big parts in everything, sometimes shit happens, and not everything goes according to plans. I like that quality of HxH, but I think Togashi has gone a little too far with his deconstruction of the Shounen cliches. We've been like, what, 30 chapters with only ONE fight, and it was Gotoh throwing coins at Hisoka, and Hisoka decapitating him. HxH is not a battle manga, but its fights are awesome, and we had non of those, even when the situation was SCREAMING for at least 2 or 3 fights. Remember when, in the same chapter, the thing about the Ant Eggs and the election building being closed with all contact with the outside world being forbidden? Everyone was like "oh god, shit just got real" "this will be a massacre" "Pariston wants to kill everyone!". In the end, it was just Togashi messing with us, and nothing like that happened at all.
Sooo, I don't know what was I ranting about. . .It all feels pure HxH, but I think this arc has been HxH being TOO HxH.
-
sigh I wish people could have discussions with opposing views without throwing out insults.
I didn't enjoy this chapter as much as some of the others. But I like where this could possibly go. You have a lot of wild cards in this series that could really cause problems.

I agree. The arc may not have ended as I had originally hoped, but there is still plenty it gave that can be easily be looked forward to. The only question is how these will be handled the day Togashi gets around to it all.
-
i can't believe you guys just dismissed hinscher as a troll. he has made great points and has all the right to be severely disappointed.
when the whole alluka power was introduced it smelled like an asspull, but i was still ok because of the restrictions. now it's just irredeemable.
yeah for sure the story is not over, but i don't see the fact that killua can order alluka to do practically anything without any consequences changing.
-
I'm about ten chapters away from being caught up. Someone tell me Togashi isn't taking a hiatus next week or something… Where did this rumor of him being sick originate (not the past sicknesses, but what someone posted last page)?

I'm not sure where the thing of him being sick came from, but at the very least there was not a hiatus notice in this weeks chapter.

-
I don't know if it can be considered an ass pull…People keep using this term, I'm wondering if people are realy using it correctly. From what the notes make it sound like to me, if we were able to be completely fluent and were reading this in English we may not have missed out on wording clues from the get go. But it's not like the scanlators would have known this was where it was ending up. We knew there was a catch to Killua being able to manipulate her, just not exactly sure how.
I kinda feel bad for Killua, he seems to like having someone around that needs him. And since he can't have Gon right at the moment, he bound himself to Alluka.
-
Gon also seems like he might be on his way back to meet with Killua again though. My main question right now is what's going to happen there, especially now that Killua has Alluka to worry about as well.
-
If Illumi wants to use Alluka/Nanaki wouldn't he do everything he can to make sure she stays alive? His goal according to that picture is to control Alluka/Nanaki through Killua. If Killula takes Alluka/Nanaki with him to travel with Gon then that's even more protection. Basically, Alluka/Nanaki will have a lot of people protecting her and ensuring her safety. Killula, Gon, and even Killula. Hell, you can even throw Kurapika and Leorio in there by extension because any friend of Killua is a friend of Gon and everyone of them loves Gon.
What I'm really trying to say is that it'd be really hard to kill Alluka off. Even if she has no self-defense or offensive capabilities beyond that of a normal kid. There's so much that will be invested in her safety it'll be interesting to see just what might happen to her. For those who say Alluka is a gamebuster you have to remember Killua said he wants Nanaki to admire him and doesn't want to just order her to do stuff, so it's not like Killua will just keep ordering for stuff. He'll be hesitant and that can lead to a bad situation.

yeah, sure… but the real problem is: how is killua able to order her in the first place without suffering any consequences?
-

Because she wuvs him.
IT'S THE POWER OF LOVE~
-

From what I understand Killua is not making any "requests". He's giving "orders" so there's no need to balance out a request with a consequence because "requests" are not being made. And the only reason Nanaki is listening to Killua's "orders" is because it likes Killua.
That's what I gather but I could be wrong.
-
So is there now a diffrence for Killua, if he orders or wishes? Or is he complettly free of any problems, no matter how he makes a request?
I'd have to go back and read some raws to be certain, but it seems like Killua can make requests of Nanika the normal way; i.e. listening to 3 of her "pesterings." But, he can also forgo that situation entirely and give her an order. I do believe that the only time we saw him actually make a request was in the flashback to their childhood, when the freckled butler listened to 3 "pesterings" and Killua requested an upsie-dasie from her.
Remember, too, that even if Killua is making requests of Nanika, he's not necessarily suffering consequences. It's the person who gets pestered after the requester that suffers.

The clues are all there, but even native Japanese speakers wouldn't have necessarily put all the pieces together. There were probably some that figured it out, though.
We've known since all the way back in chapter 39 that there are 5 Zoldyck brothers.
http://www.mangareader.net/207-14048-6/hunter-x-hunter/chapter-39.html
What we didn't know is that Killua actually loved one of them. He's afraid of Illumi, all business with Milluki, and indifferent towards Kalluto. It does feel rather forced that the 5th brother was the one that Killua was closest too and very protective of, yet the one we've never had mentioned before. I know the explanation is that Illumi's needles made Killua forget about her, but that doesn't exactly sit right with me. It might work for others, though. YMMV.
Then we get to Alluka's powers. We've seen the cost of tremendous power without the time paid to gain it before. Gon gained enormous power to massacre Pitou, and it destroyed him. Kurapica placed strict restrictions on his powers to be able to fight the Phantom Troupe, and we watched as his humanity slowly started to drip away. These are not external consequences, like the consequence we're getting with Alluka (Illumi obsessively chasing after them). They are very internal to the character involved. Alluka's stringent rules covered her enormous power. Then we find out that the rules don't apply, because she loves Killua and wants his approval. A little off, eh?
But, we've also got to remember that there are Nen "geniuses" in the world. Nen users with special abilities that are either born with those abilities due to inheritance or the circumstances in which they were born, or who develop those abilities due to the circumstances in which they are raised. They don't even need to open their shouko (nen pores :P). Like Neon, and her 100% accurate fortune telling ability. It may be that the strange circumstances surrounding Alluka, the lack of love between so many of the Zoldyck family members, and her unique personality triggered a unique ability over which she has little control (just as Neon has little control over hers; all she can do is activate it).
Phew!
Anyway, the explanation given for the difference between shite and shiro isn't exactly accurate (shite is actually more polite), but close enough. Just for the record, I'd translate like this:
Request:
Nanika, please heal Gon! (shite)Order:
Nanika, heal Gon! (shiro)Though I personally wouldn't have caught the difference in shite and shiro until Illumi brought it up. Those are just examples, btw, not actual text that appeared.
-
Its just unneeded extra padding on an already established destined fight.
No it's not, there was no reason for Killua to fight his brother before hand. You forget they actually DO care about one another, they're just a sick and twisted family.
Illumi did put a needle in Killua's head, because that was Illumi's sick way of protecting Killua. Killua took it out, and he didn't even seem mad about it. So where's this established conflict you're talking about?
Alluka is the piece that brings up a conflict for them to fight about. It was needed. It, however, also just happened to be a nice reset button.
Also, Killua's going to find out that Hisoka killed Gotou, and that's NOT going to go well. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Killua didn't end up dying leaving Gon as the person to fight Hisoka.
Doesn't this chapter confirm that nanika DOES have control over her powers? I think she just does those restrictions to get revenge for people treating her like a tool.
-
If this was the end of the story it'd be a terrible finale. But its just the middle, the setup for something bigger and more dangerous, so it's fine.
We've been like, what, 30 chapters with only ONE fight, and it was Gotoh throwing coins at Hisoka, and Hisoka decapitating him. HxH is not a battle manga, but its fights are awesome, and we had non of those, even when the situation was SCREAMING for at least 2 or 3 fights.
Mental battles are fights too, and are jsut as, if not more, interesting than straight up combat.
(And what could match up to the battle against the king anytime soon anyway?)Or does Bakuman also need more combat?
-
We've known since all the way back in chapter 39 that there are 5 Zoldyck brothers.
Technically four, three if you count Alluka's "true" gender.
-
Fanboys make me sick.
This arc holds no merit since Ging "foresaw" how Gon will be healed. Fortune telling girl "born with it" abilities didn't make much sense in the nen-restrictions world, and now we have another one who's even far more hax… Brilliant.
Killua can order his way out of anything. Heck, Illumi is alive right now only b/c Killua let him be, Killua can easily order nanika to take them to the end of the world not to be seen again. But I agree w/ Robby, Alluka won't be around for long. She'll either die, have her power sealed or the series will end all together. In any case, Togashi is clearly out of fuel, he'll be taking a stop sooner rather than later.
Gon already met Ging, and now his current goal in the series is to apologize to little girl Kaito... SHIT is bound to happen!!!
After that he apparently has nothing to do in the series anymore, unless Hisoka thinks that he's ready (And no, I don't wanna see him running after Killua... AGAIN).My only hope atm is that the focus shifts to Hisoka or Kurapika as mains for some time (I had enough w/ both Gon & Killua) and even that is far from likely to happen.
EDIT: Was Tsubone crying in the last page? & Why was she ordered back? (she couldn't follow them even if she were ordered to, but still!)
-
@Bad:

It's not really any different from Aisa being born with observation haki, and that worked well for One Piece.
If you look at Neon even now she has never even understood that her power was from nen.

Maybe I was sleeping but didn't chrollo take Neons ability as his own?

Maybe I was sleeping but didn't chrollo take Neons ability as his own?
Yeah he took it. And her father lost his mind lol.

@Bad:

Not really. Ging had absolute faith Gon would be healed but he didn't foresee Gon being wished back to health.
@Bad:
Fortune telling girl "born with it" abilities didn't make much sense in the nen-restrictions world, and now we have another one who's even far more hax… Brilliant.
Neon had no idea her powers were based around Nen. To a lesser extent neither did Komugi.
Besides as we've been saying in this thread for awhile (and as these last few chapters regarding Illumi and Alluka have pointed out) there's no way Killua can honor his promise to be together with Alluka as long as It's powers are still intact. So either something big is going to happen soon or this promise is going to end tragically.
@Bad:
Gon already met Ging, and now his current goal in the series is to apologize to little girl Kaito… SHIT is bound to happen!!!
After that he apparently has nothing to do in the series anymore, unless Hisoka thinks that he's ready (And no, I don't wanna see him running after Killua... AGAIN).The main goal of Hunter X Hunter is not just Gon finding his father, it's about Gon just wanting to explore the world as a Hunter. If Gon had really wanted to find Ging sooner he would've done things like inquired more about Ging's location from Kite when he had the chance. Or like with Greed Island Gon was explicitly told there was not a clue in the game about how to find Ging and Gon was okay with that. Granted we later learn that was partially a lie since winning the game would allow a way to see Ging but Gon had no idea about that until he won.
And apologizing to Kite is a big deal. It's like having Luffy see Shanks killed in front of his eyes, you can't just walk away from that. Even if Kite's memories are likely gone it is still an important event that has to be done.
@Bad:
My only hope atm is that the focus shifts to Hisoka or Kurapika as mains for some time (I had enough w/ both Gon & Killua) and even that is far from likely to happen.
EDIT: Was Tsubone crying in the last page? & Why was she ordered back? (she couldn't follow them even if she were ordered to, but still!)
So your hopes are that the story switches from the two main characters whom have been the central and most important focus of the entire series to either one man's revenge quest which at the moment has absolutely nothing to do with the current story or to an omnisexual mass murdering psychopath who lives just to plan his next kill?
Uh, huh.
As for Tsubone I couldn't tell if she was crying (probably was though since she is rather fond of Killua in a motherly sense) but she's likely being called off because the Zoldyck family has the information they need about Killua's commands with Alluka, or rather It, and since Killua explicitly said he'll just teleport them back home if they get in his way the Zoldycks probably figured they should wait until another better opportunity comes.
