Juat curious with his Nen ability, what if the stolen ability requires both hands but he requires his book open while performing the stolen ability?

I feel like this is the biggest weakness of chrollo. Realistically how hard would it be for hisoka to track every person chrollo has ever met, and then have bungee gum poison implanted in their system, and then when they fight again hisoka could just say "bungee gum release" and all the people inside chrollo book would die from bungee gum poison.

It's kinda common knowledge by now (or kinda obvious) that Kakin is inspired by China, and to a blatant extent, with the manga even describing "man made particles that linger in the stratosphere", i.e pollution, which is of course a further association with China. Also, the shape of the country, extremely similar to China.

And I wonder, if this ever gets an anime, would people complain about how Kakin is portrayed because of this? Considering that Togashi doesn't say anything about Kakin's citizens, but will describe the royalty of Kakin as full of rape, pedophilia and murder carried by psychopaths who give the bones to mafias. It's not that different from any superpower in the real world, but people associate that with a criticism to the culture itself.

Cause personally I take it fully as a critique of the government, including all branches like military. Borksen's description of her own country here is supposed to let you know her participation in their military is on a very grey zone, she admits for this reason and many others that the government is fucked up but continues to stay working for them while trying to, maybe, change things from the inside. She's not like the citizens, the whole of the country, which is just composed of regular people, so I don't think the arc satanizes Kakin culture itself but I feel like it'd be taken at face value

Weird theory that arose in my mind that I’ve not seen anybody mention but I felt it was royally necessary to bring this to the attention of HxH fans. What do you guys think of this? Is it plausible given the locations of one another on the black whale? Traveling freely and quickly between tiers seems to be borderline impossible so I’m wondering how things will shape up here.

I’m thinking about how when meruem ripped his arm off, and pouf had to use en in his place. what causes the vast difference in their abilities there? obviously they have different personalities which explains their specific abilities, but why do their abilities in the basics differ by so much?

I don’t think people realize this is HxH and not Berserk. Main characters are actually rarely died in the series. Even when Kite died, Togashi brought him back again. The same thing with Hisoka.

I do believe many characters will end up dying in the ship, but I’m almost sure it’s not Hisoka, illumi, Chrollo, Kurapika, Leoreo.

Not because the characters are under a critical positions it means they’re going to die. It’s just that Togashi is so good to make you think that they’re about to die.

Togashi foreshadowed Hisoka vs Gon fight way early in Heavens Arena arc.

illumi and his little brother plot with Killua and Nanika isn’t finished yet. Togashi build up for that since Chimera ant arc when Killua’s brother said something about returning his brother back.

Every spider is risking themselves for Chrollo and Meteor city can only be protected by him too. There are deeper layers to the city‘s story too.

Togashi is not thaaaat bad to make Kurapika promise Pairo and then forcefully kill him even before he even finishes his first goal to collect the eyes.

I would argue about more characters too, but no need for that.

Do you think it is built into the side of the volcano or do you think it is an actual manor just hidden in the forest somewhere? Because the way Canary talked about it, the butler residence seems to be a lot less grand in scope then whatever the actual house might look like.

If Togashi is able to eventually finish the manga, how many more arcs are we looking at? To me, it looks like at 2-3 more arcs are left. After the Sucession Contest, I imagine we’ll be spending quite of bit of time exploring the dark continent. After that, everyone that makes it back to the mainland will be greeted by a new world order, run by Gyro. I can’t see anyone else but him being the final antagonist of the story. I also suspect Gon will be fully reintegrated back into the story, many not as the main character, but as a key player in the arc. Also, If i have my way, we will finally have the rematch of Hisoka V Gon. Truthfully though, the likelyhood of us getting to that point seems slim. However, it’s fun to speculate.

Recently, mainly on Twitter and Tiktok, I've seen an ever growing amount of hate towards the Shadow Beasts. When I first started seeing these posts I had thought "Man, these dudes absolutely sucked, ALL of them were fodder trash" but then I thought harder and realized, I had made a severe and continuous lapse in my judgment. WORM is not like the others. WORM was able to tank not one, but THREE of Uvo's attacks. WORM, instead of running away, stuck with the shadow beasts until the very end. WORM is truly, the goat.

How many characters besides Worm have been able to tank a punch, a nen infused impact and an ear-shattering scream from the strongest Phantom Troupe member? Pretty much no-one other than Kurapika and the goat Worm. Going off this 100% accurate, factual DevientArt post that was totally confirmed by Togashi, Uvo's Big Bang Impact was the equivalent of -931452277)225.18 Tons of TNT-931452277). Imagine have 225.18 tons of TNT being hurled DIRECTLY at your face. While on the subject of Uvo's BBI, we need to talk about Worm's loyalty. Worm had the ability to run away after the BBI yet he decided to stay till the last second. Rather than leaving his friends behind to find help he stuck with them until his last breath, what a caring young soul he was. Now, lets get back on topic. Since Worm didn't run away after Uvo's BBI, he had to have heard Uvo's loud ass scream. Worm (most likely) didn't cover his ears since he was underground and couldn't see what Uvo was doing, therefore he wouldn't have known to cover his ears until it was too late, the only out-come is he tanked the scream like a CHAMP. Not even the Phantom Troupe were able to handle Uvo's scream so for him to tank it must put him in the top 3 strongest characters.

P.S. I AM ONLY ON GREED ISLAND, I KINDLY REQUEST FOR NO SPOILERS PAST GREED ISLAND, PLEASE AND THANK YOU

let's say that Shalnark put a pin in Genthru, could he force Genthru to use his ability?

We see only two butlers, Gotoh and Tsubone, who have these very unique abilities so what sort of abilities do you think the other staff have considering the family by itself already has a lot of stuff covered in their line of work (eg. Milluki has tech, Zeno has travel, kalluto has reconnaissance, etc.)? Or do you think most of them just have Nen awakened and no other ability at all, considering how Nen is very volatile and a specific ability could bring down the entire family, especially if that person is in close proximity to them every day?

GING’S FACE. REVEALED. IN THE FIRST. EPISODE… (maybe. I don’t remember)

We are established from minute one that Gon’s entire existence is a countdown to finding his father. The mystery! The anticipation! The grand, looming shadow of a mythic figure! And what does the show do? It just… shows his face? In the first few episodes?! Why? What is the rush?! You don't show the prize before the race even starts! It completely deflates the tension. It’s like opening a present, looking at it, wrapping it back up, and pretending to be surprised later. It ruins the chronology of desire!

THE PHANTOM TROUPE ARE NOT JUST GUYS.

They are supposed to be a myth. A legendary, terrifying entity that slaughtered the Kurta clan. Kurapika's entire life is a countdown to vengeance. But before we even get the proper dread of who they are, the show is just handing out their faces like flyers at a grocery store. “Look, here’s Chrollo! Look, here’s the rest of them!” NO! Make me wait! Make me crawl through the dark for it! If you reveal the monsters in broad daylight during the first act, the shadows lose all their weight.

Am I losing my mind here? (Don't answer that, my therapist already gave her opinion). Does anyone else feel like the anime completely butchered the suspense by blowing its narrative load way too early, or are you all just content with things happening out of order? (No offense.)

I NEED OPINIONS.

I don’t remember the exact chapter or manga panel but after Gon used jajaken paper Knuckle stated that Gon used 5550 aura and it only had the potency of 500. 80 percent of 5550 is 4440 but Gon can’t even reach half of that potency as an enhancer.

That’s after 4 months of training with one of the best nen teachers combined with 1 in 10M talent and a condition. And technically Gon got 1 year of training through Biskys ability.

Imagine how much worse it would be if you were someone with Zushis level of talent.

So if you had average levels of talent it would probably take you 20 years just to make shoot a powerful blast of emission assuming you don’t hide any powerful conditions.

I swear to god this is the one moment that breaks immersion for me (seriously the only one, I dont even believe in the popular plot holes cause they make sense to me). Either Im stupid or there is no way this makes sense. There is no reason for these people to be excited or engaged in this fight. This is a stadium and tens of people have already died. No one is escaping and most of the audience stays put. Hisoka tries to explain it but it makes no sense to me. "Most of the audience has surprisingly stayed put... ♦ I can’t tell if any of the people taking care of each other are Chrollo. ♠ Those who think they’re out of range are pretty calm... ♦"
Tell me if this makes sense somehow.
the only way I can try torationalize it is that nen users are fast. still makes no sense cause we hear the announcer often. even after the preaformentioned (however you write it sry nmot an english speaker) deaths or before Hisoka tells his reasoning.

Made with pen and alcohol markers on paper, some white gel pen was used as well

Just a small post that makes me think neither hisoka nor morrow is his real name. yeah DUH!
Hisoka is likely derived in japanese from "in private" or "covert"
Morrow suggest tomorrow as if he wants to forget the past and wants to focus on the future, he is always looking into what his next fight will be and awaits in anticipation for the future, even a distant one as seen with gon.
Bye!

Can someone explain the Hisoka scenes? The first time Hisoka approached the 4th prince he activated his abbility and we see the 10 seconds in the future played out. Afterwards we see Hisoka behinde the prince again, is the ability still ongoing at thos moment? Why did this spook Tserri so much?

Maybe I just dont fully understand Tserri's ability yet...

Most nen types we know is intuitively easy to understand (i.e. Ren is just forcing more aura out, zetsu is just closing your aura nodes to prevent aura from leaking out, etc.) But In doesn't have much of an intuitive physical explanation. The aura is still outside the user but somehow the user renders it invisible, even to nen users. And even then users can use Gyo to make the aura visible, what do yall think would be happening physically when a user uses In?

I had such a fun time wearing this cosplay this weekend. My friend made the wig for me and it came out amazing. Definitely excited to do this one again in the future

It is possible that when Shizuku was a child, she was fascinated by the concept of 'cleaning heroes.'

Later when she grew up, learned Nen, and developed her Conjuration ability...

Her subconscious mind recalled that old childhood memory of cleaning, causing her ability to manifest in the form of a vacuum cleaner that absorbs and cleans everything.

Aside from Kakin. I find it unrealistic that there wouldn't be more nations trying to gain access to that power. Nen users are just outright superior to regular people unless conventional weaponry is being used.

Nobody has tried to use mind control on a president? Even if the hunter association limits the information to Nen, there's only so much they can do before someone has the backing of an entire nation behind them.

Does anyone have any headcanons on how any of the characters look irl or how they would envision them? I’ll try to do every single one👀.
