Suicide bombing Benjamins He-Man Women Haters Club wasn't an option for the first test no?
I suppose the problem with that is that Benjamin's people could have nen abilities that incapacitate and interrogate him or whatever. In the world of nen your opponent most likely has an ability that just so happens to be the perfect counter to yours.

Except if you have the power of BOTH rubber and gum.
And use your gum to restart your heart.
Doubt Benjamin would allow the soldier to get anywhere close, knowing he encountered Halkenburg and then losing communication with him.
But I wonder what was the suicide show for. Maybe to have someone witness that the soldier was still loyal to Benjamin and took his own life. I suppose that is enough, really.

I assumed it was to test how if the soul transferrs back on death and he had him suicide in public so that no they can't claim that halkenburg killed the bodygaurd.

They also could get info from his corpse so giving back anything to Benjamin should have at least the consequence of taking something from him.
Or how about shooting someone else from team Caligula and blame Benjamin for it?

This makes a lot of sense and I love that it was not explained to us at all.
I hope Theta's replacement as half as interesting as she was.
Also does Tsenderich's comment about liking two faced women hint that Theta might be the Komugi of this arc?
No, that is a "worse than dead" flag.
I'm confused about how much Halkenburg knows about his own ability. He seemed to already know (instinctively?) that he could produce and fire a Nen bow & arrow, but he doesn't know the nature of the soul transfer.
I don't know, it feels like he should either know everything about it, or nothing about it and figure it out from there.
He wanted "a way to make people belive in me", he got it but without knowing the mechanics.
Anyone knows when they release a new Hunter X Hunter anime season? I don't follow the manga because I want to experience the content through Madhouse quality, but man…. it's been years now :S

I doubt you'll be getting any content until the manga is outright finished. Due to all the hiatuses it's only been around 40-50 chapters since where they ended of the anime, and it's nowhere near finishing the arc. Perhaps enough for a few OVAs worth of content, but certainly not worth making a season out of it all.

I personally can't wait for the second reboot of the anime in 2027 :D
I can't wait for my grandchildren to watch the new HxH anime with me!
The 2011 anime will be hitting its 10 years anniversary in another 3 years time…
Probably a one-season kind of thing or something
If they are feeling generous and care enough.

While the manga isn't really that far away for enough content, why can't Madhouse adapt the material at yearly bases instead of making another long running anime? Even the old studio, Nippon Animation, did the something similar with the HxH OVAs, of course it wasn't a smooth transition since the staff kept changing for the OVAs, but the people behind the new adaptation can avoid that, can't they?
I know that OVAs aren't as popular as they used to be as a format, but there are some pretty convincingly good replacements. For instance, they can go with ONAs, they're not that different from OVAs, but they're much more available which makes them easily marketable similar to TV series.
Another choice that is very doable is going with a 12 episode (1 cour) release yearly, specially since Togashi's hiatuses aren't two years long anymore (hope I don't jinx it), adapt 20 or so chapters into 12 episode every year, and when the gap shortens just wait another year.
Interestingly enough, Madhouse recently animated the trailer for HxH's mobile game, which means they haven't given up the rights for the series just yet, I know some people might say the new series ended not long ago, but more time has passed since it ended than it's initial TV run.

In the anime, whenever it will be there, I just hope that Hisoka vs Chrollo will be introduced smoothly. Like, add a few scenes and don't just drop onto us the most anticipated fight in this manga
And question here. Are Maha and Zzig Zoldyck the same characters ? Someone on a French forum told me that Togashi had just changed Maha's name into Zzig. And that it was said in one of the volumes. Like, an author comment or something
I'm pissed that this is not a manga on its own

I'm pretty sure they are not the same characters. I don't really recall seeing any author comments that said that.
Initially Maha was supposed to be Zeno's father then Togashi retcon it. Maha is now Zeno's grandfather.
Maha was seen in the family relationship chart that Killua imagined. Togashi hasn't forgotten him yet.
Zzigg is either not from the main branch of the family OR Zeno's father.

Is this a jojo reference? This arc is already filled with so many…
Guess is time for Kurapika to develop a hax ability to counter the obvious main villain for this arc.
Summary: It just works!
Ok so this is basically a photocopy of chapter 385 with "wow I can see 10 seconds into the future" added.
I guess there really wasn't any other way at all to explain his power
If Murata was drawing HxH, this chapter would just be the second version of chapter 385
Also, yeah, everyone is haxed. For the moment, it feels like Tserriednich, Halkenburg and maybe Camilla have abilities with more potential than the royal-guards had
This fanart of Kurapika has never been more appropriate.
!
The moment Terrorsandwich say he wants to take over the world, he's gonna get trashed badly.
I'm a bit annoyed by this chapter as we are getting closer to the inevitable hiatus…
While this chapter was important in establishing the more or less main villain of this arc, why did it took a whole chapter?
I'm also still not feeling the hype of this guy. I just don't care for him so making me even more hax than he needs to be just annoyed me.
But then again, his siblings also have ridiculously hax ability, I guess it is inevitable.
I kinda want to make fun of Togashi's laziness in reusing a lot of panels...:ninja:
Filthy acts commited by a vermilion ruler then?
This is what You know who's stand works from his perspective, I think.
This is bullshit. But i believe it
Is this now his official hatsu or just another Bonus?
Remember that Tetha also saw a second stand with him. The horse thing and the thing with a 666 in it's stomach.
Hey there King Crimson, can't wait for Kurapica to obtain a [Nen Beast] from the [Requim Seed Pot] that can undo all actions.
Sooo. . .have we witnesed manga history being changed already? Or not yet? Was this chapter the rummored Sistine Chapel of Manga that editor talked about while crying tears of joy?
I mean, at this point, I'm just curious. Something insanely good or insanely shocking should've happened by now, right?. . .right?
We still have 2 or 3 chapters left before the next hiatus if I calculate the amount of chapters in a volume correctly. Terrorsandwich will probably kill Melody soon, though.
If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. - _Sun Tzu, The Art Of War
The thing is you might think these abilities are broken but actually the strongest 「Stand」actually belongs to Togashi.
「The World Requiem」- Can freeze time for several months or years. Can also introduce complete asspulls like idk radiation or magic sister.
This was totally a Jojo chapter. We even had prince posing.
However, unless prince manages to shorten the time it takes for the ability to play out, it is not overpowered. The fact he spends 10 seconds looking 10 seconds further into the future means he remains completely ignorant of whatever happens in the first 10 seconds after he activates the ability. I mean, sure, he can still "feel" what is going on around him (I thought zetsu should cut that off, apparently not) but still he is vulnerable. Had Theta shot him on the first 10 seconds rather than waiting all that time, I wonder what sort of future he would see… maybe just black?
Idk it feels kind of op to me because the other drawback is so obscure, no non-Hxh character could figure it out normally. He might as well have had 'develops deadly peanut allergy' as his drawback. The having to maintain zetsu condition seems like a pretty legit weakness though
Does anyone honestly think he won't master this ability?
The chapter was fun. Don't like the fact it went through same stuff needlessly. Like talking to his guards about Melody again. Really? Makes me convinced it won't be long before another hiatus.
This chapter was literally a giant copy and paste of itself and another previous chapter. Togashi is getting lazy again, a new hiatus doesn't seem far off.
Eyyy King Crimson what's good? 
Great chapter. Tserriednich's ability once mastered seems broken as fuck. Would like to see him fight Chrollo once he gets the hang of his ability. He's probably got more raw talent/potential than anyone else in the series including Ging and Meruem.

Honestly, nobody knows for sure. It's speculation at this point.
Most assume that this super amazing chapter will be in this batch of chapters but it could be the next batch of chapters for all we know…
It could be the chapter where that twin sister died. Or the chapter where Theta tried to killed Tser....
Or this chapter since it is generating quite a response. Tser being the likeliest main villain of the arc gained a super op power which is quite shocking & does change the way this story is developing.
If you are being cynical, it could be because Togashi reuse so many panels from previous chapter that the editor cried at how lazy he was & will be the first time in history of this manga publication . :ninja:
Maybe more authors will start reusing panels after showing perspective of other characters, couple of chapters after an event. And it all started with this chapter, awwww.
I didn't think it was possible, but he did it.
Togashi managed to give an even more confusing explanation of King Crimson than Araki did.

Completely disagree, this makes sense he just sees 10 seconds into the future from when he closes his eyes and his actions once he opens them are inperceptible to anyone else for 10 seconds

Not just imperciptible, they see him doing what he would normally be doing.
King Crimson could just see 11 seconds into the future and skip time.
I liked the fact that this chapter was basically the same but from the Prince's perspective. Although I understand why, considering we only get one chapter per week, and 9 chapters per year, it may irritate some. But we have to see the bigger picture here. Reading this arc as a whole, finished work will feel very different.
Loved the chapter. Very nice art, very cool to get the second perspective. Also look at it in the bigger picture, not the chapter by chapter view, It's an amazing chapter within the framework of a 300chapter+ series, doing some unique, interesting things HxH hasn't really done before.
Now we have to wait for Kurapika to find the 「Nen Arrow」 and unlock 「Emperor Time Requiem」 to beat this dude
oh right, I had completely forgotten that Togashi hadn't only trolled us with the chapter about the cockroach. But it also showed Kurapika's new ability
Yeah I guess Kurapika will steal the ability of one of the princes then. And if I remember correctly, using his red eyes force him to lose a lot of lifespan too….
