Looks like a pretty bland chapter.
Hunter x Hunter
-
-
Guess he can't used Flutter anymore.
-
I thought Ikarugo was done using flutters body.
-
wow, thks Battle Franky. it looks like yupi is about to do some more damage and also ikarugo just missed a narrow death. the lobster guy was aiming for him. wonder why ikarugo was driving ?
-
I don't like Bourda either.
-
-
hopefully after this arc is over togashi will give leorio his spotlight.
-
I wouldn't really expect this arc to be ending soon, if the next year or two atleast. And Leorio might show up a little bit, but honestly he wouldn't be able to do much fighting-wise.
-
At the last time Leorio appeared, Gon said "Next time we meet, you'll be a doctor." And Leorio said "Are you saying we won't meet for at least 4 years?"
And this arc can't last forever… If you recall, the previous arcs had a lot more progress per chapter, but I suppose this way is nice too, it's more dramatic and specific. But we'll see where it goes. There's no jump next week, and there's one the next week. Then that's the end of the "like this for 10 weeks."
This arc will end eventually, but there's still plenty to do. Though at least it's progressing, much better than the year and 10 months it was on hiatus.
-
true Kewl0210. hoping to get better progress and let this arc get done. but i must say i like this arc alot and i don't mind it going a slow progress i keep seeing good things and also we see killua and gon in different situations more so for killuas dad and granddad and netero .
not to mention new charaters. anyway did gon actually beat knuckles in the fights or lost and are they close in strength -
He lost the fight for the right to come to the island and was put into a zetsu state by the little black market interest guy. (I belive they haven't fought since)
But he then scared the hell out of Moreau when he showed him his Janken at full power. (Don't think it meant that he was stronger then the pipesmoker though, just that attack was.)
-
I believe that shau just haxxorz through morau's smoke jail.
and it's the beginning battle of fight between the sea creatures!!
octopus vs. craw fish who would win? (realistically a octopus would kill a craw fish ) -
can ikarugo fight at all? im sure that lobster-man would probly kill him in a battle.
so is pufu turning into little butterflies to attack morau? or just to escape?
i just went back and reread the whole arc and morau said he was only at about 35% going into the fight.. he might be in big trouble

ああ再開は9月らしいですよ
! ではまた
And next chapter will come up in September.
-
Sounds like an alright chapter. The Netero vs. Meruem fight sure took a while. September eh? Ughhh… no Hunter X Hunter all summer... sucks.
-
September is way too long a wait for more Hunter X Hunter goodness.
-
Wonder how many chapters we get then? Will it be 10 as usual or will it be more?
-
I'm hoping for at least 20 chapters.
-
3 months has been the regular span of breaks, having it return in September is just 1 month extra. Maybe the extra month is to give Togashi enough time to create a proper ending…
-
HxH can't have a ending yet.

Just so you guys know, this script was a fake.
-
That seems to be true. Whenever the real one comes out, I'll translate it.
Also, consequently, the "September" thing isn't reliable. -
whew, glad its fake. sounded weak
-
All I saw was a bunch of "?????" so I couldn't read it not to mention it wasn't translated. Didn't know it was fake or not since I couldn't read it.
-
so how do we know when he's coming back or we won't know ? hope we get more than 10 chs, tho i figure it would be 10 as usual

He can't do that to us dammitNow all we can do is forget you ve read this chapter or HxH at all and continue your life untill togashi decides to continue dammit!!!!!
Seeking infinity, with all my affinities.
Finding truth, like a falling fruit, my ultimate finality.
Inside my being, the outside, all things; the finite leads the way.
-
So is Yupi dead? Or just fucked up?
-
So the latest 10 chapters have totally turned me off from the series.
Nothing really happened. And I still don't understand Hakoware. It looks like Yupi's not dead yet, just really fucked up.
-
So the latest 10 chapters have totally turned me off from the series.
Nothing really happened. And I still don't understand Hakoware. It looks like Yupi's not dead yet, just really fucked up.
I understand Hakoware actually, but the latest 10 chapters, I agree the pacing has been fucking terrible. I think it even might have been even more dragged out than a Bleach fight. But, I like the art and the emotion put into it makes me very interested, so I can't really agree. I guess a few things did happen, but I'm really disappointed in the chapter or two wasted on Gon spazzing out about Pitou.
-
It's not dragged out, it's given a lot of depth. It's not like 5 chapters of two guys slashing eachother, it's talked about the stratagy and all that. And the other storylines.
-
I agree. In no way is this comparable with the boring dreck that's been Bleach in the Hueco Mundo arc.
Shit's just hella cool in HxH right now. -
I agree Hunter X Hunter is awesome right now, but I'm saying the emotion and description and detail are the things making it good. Take a look at it. It's only been like 5 minutes after 20 chapters or so. You're crazy if you think that isn't dragged out.
-
I agree about the emotion and stuff. But this is really dragged the hell out.
The breaks are fucking killing me.
-
So the latest 10 chapters have totally turned me off from the series.

What is it you don't understand?
When Knuckles initiate the ability by hitting the opponent he lends the opponent part of his aura instead of dealing damage. This aura is made up of nen and assigned a value that the little flying imp keeps track of.
Knuckles can at any point lend more aura by hitting the opponent again. Aura is repaid when the opponent hits or tries to deal damage to Knuckles. This is automatic and can not be bypassed to deal damage without repaying nen to Knuckles (assuming this is the case as long as nen is used to amplify an attack, which they always are when nenfighters duke it out. Any other attack should easily be blocked by Knuckles defensive nen.)
The number on the imps belly is the opponents "debt" that he needs to pay back to get rid of the imp. Every ten seconds 10% of the current number on the imps belly is added as interest to that debt. (It does not give the opponent more aura like Knuckles attacks does.)
When ever the debt becomes bigger then the total amount of aura the enemy has (meaning the enemy can not possibly repay the debt anymore… guess you can see this as their credit limit to the loan or something) the imp with numbers on the belly turns into the black devil like imp that prevents the opponent from using nen.
When the debt is repaid the imp disapears and the ability is cancelled and Knuckles takes damage from normal attacks again.
Moria: 20 chapters for 5 min would usually be a lot so it's dragged out yes... but I wouldn't say it is dragging on. It's just that he decided that all this happened in such a smal timeframe.
Would you still say that it is dragged out if the time frame was a few hours? or weeks? It being dragged out is not really about in what ammount of time passes in the manga if there is still alot of things happening. It's about if nothing happens in the manga spanning lots of chapters.
What the…? Holy smurf am I slow! Until this statement of yours I never even realized that an octopus is actually serving octopusballs. Talk about not seeing the forest because of too many trees. facepalm
-
I won't deny Togashi is dragging things out; but maybe this way it's easier for him to keep writing at a steadier pace than before. (best proof of this is the amount of spreads he's done since v25)
Also, dragged out as it may be; I'm having a blast reading it. I can't remember when I've experienced shit as epic in shounen manga as HxH's last couple of volumes.The problem with other series; when they start to drag, it's usually due to pressure from the editors. I can't imagine Togashi ever caring what an editor thinks. If it's dragging right now, it's because HE wants it to.
-
Well, assuming Yupi is still alive, I hope by t he end of the next 10 chapter serialization atleast ONE Royal Bodyguard is killed.
-
yeh, i love HxH but its hard to tell what togashi is up to…
i doubt the arc will even be over in 20 chapters...
its getting to be like berserk. im wondering if the manga will outlive the mangaka?
-
who knows and honestly I don't care about waiting until it returns to weekly jump. As long as togashi keeps me interested as he has allways i'll be glad to read.
-
yep dragged or not
I really like how things are turning out
the fights are awesome (no -I punch you , you punch me and the hero stands at the end-shit). These fights are like a chessgames, every move, thing, luck, … has a role in this game. yeahhh togashi keep them comingAnd as for Yupi I don't think he s dead , because as you know when hakoware is activated knuckle's punches doesn't damage the enemy. But with the added nen Yupi won't last long before he is bankrupt.
And maybe Killua will play the role of shoot and fight against Yupi so the nen-interest gets bigger. It will be a nice way to get to see the real strenght of Killua after his new technique. -
What is it you don't understand?

that's overly complicated.
I prefer to pretend Knuckle just goes around punching shit. This is why I read Bleach.
The first set of 10 chapters were far better then the recent 10 though, I must say. Art wise, story wise, everything was much, much better. And the first set had a Netero flashback. 265 was some good shit.

I really wish Togashi wouldn't take so many breaks… He gave way too much of an evil cliffhanger too.

SInce when is Knuckles the Echidna in this manga…
There's no s in his name
Anyway, he said he'd do his best to get it out soon, so maybe the wait won't be a long time this time, maybe only a few issues.
Knuckle's ability is an example of how the detail of this show makes it interesting, it has real depth and precision and there's a lot less "he just suddenly gets stronger and his mask doesn't come off then suddenly a new captain joins and they're in a filler arc" sort of things.

Hunter X Hunter should never be compared to bleach that's like comparing a Kevin Smith movie to a Alfred Hitchcock movie.

I am glad that Knuckle did not die.
