Heck, the anime might be why we had a fairly closed ending-ish chapter last time around.
Not counting the last chapter which is easily cuttable, obviously.
@Friend:
My main concern with Hxh is that if Togashi keeps being lazy, the anime will eventually overtake the manga again, and we might get fillers. I wonder if Jump could ever force Togashi back to work. He must have one amazing contract.
Too late. Its only a year or so behind now. They're just going to go full tilt to the ending point and that'll be that. Filler free series, kinda nice.
Then in another 10 years another company will try from the start all over again when Togashi's gotten another 50 or 60 chapters out.
