On that note, has their been any progress? I haven't read the last 2 batches of chapters because I'm hoping it's finished in a few more and I can't bear to continuously read it all over again (which is what it takes for me to remember it through drops)

Homie, WHAT? Yes. You learn the Phantom Troupe’s backstory.

@andre i have a feeling we are pretty close to the climax or the start of it with the next batch so yeah, would say this is a good time as any.
-
Elbaf and 10 chapter cruise survival at the same. I don't know if I can manage all this.
-
@Cockycent It's time for OP to have its own boat arc...or were all OP arcs boat arcs?
-
I hope VIZ won't take tooo long to release Vol. 38.
I've only read the volumes of HxH and never been weekly, but I'm glad for those who do read it weekly that its back, likely for another batch of 10 chapters. -
That cover with Gon on volume 38 is fake or is that a massive joke?

Alright but it takes years for someone to get really good at nen unless they have a really good teacher like Buscuit right? Why is Togashi trying to make that serial killer guy seem so threatening when Kurapika could nip this in the bud before it goes too far easily.
So I'm looking back at old posts and I see a clear lack of understanding on how Nen Geniuses work that I possessed years ago, especially because we didn't have the information we have now.
Nen Geniuses are people who would have already been at the peak of human potential before they were even introduced to Nen. Gon and Killua were forces to be reckoned with even before Nen due to their backgrounds and how they grew up, and they were at the top potential of a person who never got Nen would be at.
Chrollo's Genius showed in a different way, he was shown to be an effective leader at a young age, and quickly figured out the minute details of voice acting and anime dubbing at a young age because he had so much intelligence and creativity inherent to who he was. So of course Nen came easy for him.
I was wondering how the 4th prince could grow so rapidly but he spelled it out with these characters and events, the prince is just that smart, that self assured, and that creative so Nen comes extremely natural to him and he could reach very high heights extremely fast.
I'm going to stop doubting Togashi and just enjoy the ride, he's proven it's worth it more to do that more than a dozen times now.
-
The complexity of the situation is what stops Kurapika to nip the Tser situation in the bud.
-
I subscribe to Gon being an unnatural freak monster from the Dark Continent and that's why he's a "Nen Genius" along with impossible charisma instead of the explanation of him just being some dumb kid that got to play around in the forest/mountains a lot.

@Marcotty
Only if his mother did the expedition there, and if - big IF - Ging didn't used the mpreg card of Greed Island to have Gon. -
Why the hell would you put him on the cover and spine when he's not in it?
Been a decade without him so you have to trick lapsed readers?
-
Holy heck, it really has been just over 10 years. How long was Berserk's boat arc?
edit: And it's been 23 years since we've seen the core 4 together. (Not sure how long since the core 5 if you include Hisoka)

Well, he's done that already with Kurapika and Leorio (volumes 18-20)
-
How long until Gon does come back into the story, and how long before he gets his Nen back

That depends on which joke you're making. Joke was initially made when the series focused on Griffith for several years while Guts was off on a boat doing who knows what. So are you making the original joke, or do you count "Guts fighting wacky pirates and sea monsters" as boat arc even though it's not off screen, and don't stop the joke until they reach elf land? .
(Its hard to find actual chapter release dates rather than volumes, so this is rounded)
They get on the boat in chapter 278. in 2007.
Then it does Griffith stuff for a while till 285, still the same year.
Pirates for 286-290, in 2008.
More Griffith stuff in 291-307, in 2010.
Zombie pirates and mermaid! 308-328, in 2012.
Random 3 chapter flashback to young Guts in 329-331, 2013. Frustrating as it was the ONLY chapters that year.
Rickerts arc till 341, 2016.
Elf island, chapter 342, 2016.So if you're just doing the original "this is a lot of focus on Griffith, where's Guts?" joke, about two years. If you want from first stepping on the boat to reaching their destination, 9-10 years.
You don't even want to know how many years Caska was broken.

its a dragon ball homage guys chill man what the hell

@andre
Berserk one lasted for 3395 days (9.3 years).
If we go by the start of the arc (ch340) it's been 4585 days (12,56years), if we count by the boat departure (ch359) it's been 3034 days (8,28years).
*HxH date is the one of the next release, Oct 7th.So while still shorter in time, HxH will probably surpass Berserk's Boat arc in that.
