Hangout Hunter x Hunter Hangout Thread [02]

[Riyuki]

Hello everyone, so I have a question regarding something I just noticed. I am rewatching the Yorknew arc, and when Nobunaga dashes to attack Hisoka, Nobunaga is teleported about 20 yards away from where he was about to strike. The other troupe members say : "Did the boss do that? " " I think so " . Is there a reason for this? Did he use a technique he stole via skill hunter to teleport Nobunaga? Or is it just implying that Chrollo is ridiculously fast? That doesnt make sense to me because Chrollo didn't show such high speeds when he was facing Zeno and Silva.

Also, another question regarding Chrollo. Zeno says that he needs to complete 4-5 conditions before he can steal an ability. We never found out what these conditions were, however, Chrollo steals Neon's fortune telling ability. Is it possible to evaluate their "date" and breakdown these 4-5 conditions? He obviously cleared those conditions since he stole her nen. Does this mean his conditions could be based on communication? Needing to speak verbally with the person he steals it from?

Chrollo uses the mantle that he stole from that one guy, but dont the troupe members say he will be interrogated? I'm assuming Feitan did that, but I'm starting to think Chrollo interrogated him because thats the condition setting for Chrollo to steal an ability. I really wish Togashi would bring the troupe back.... the characters are SO SO SO interesting.

I wasn't sure where to post this, so thanks for any feedback.

He used a technique, he stole.
http://hunterxhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Chrollo_Lucilfer
"1-He must witness the Nen ability in action with his eyes.
2-He must ask about the ability and be answered by the victim.
3-His victim's palm must touch the handprint on the cover of Bandit's Secret.
4-All of the above must be done within an hour

The theft victim, of course, no longer has access to their abilities. To use one of the stolen abilities, he first conjures Bandit's Secret and turns to the page of the wanted ability. While using an ability, Chrollo must turn to the page with the ability on it and the book must remain opened in his right hand; this means he could only have access to one chosen ability at a time.[77] Additionally, an ability vanishes from the book if its former owner dies. ""

 

[Riyuki]

Oh wow... so he can't steal an ability and then kill the opponent?

I just realized something. Chrollo can use his mantle to take the entire troupe into the boat for the DC.

I think having to use him hands is a limitation, but since he learned to do that faster than sound it's much better for him.
Zero draining all of his energy is a limitation as well and that's why it's so strong.

I am not sure putting all your power into it is a limitation. So far hatsu don't seem to work that way because strong hatsu always require a lot of nen. I would argue there is probably a boost to it but it is similar to what gon gets from jajanken. In netero's case we could argue he gets a significant one because of the years he spent praying and the fact that every single drop of energy he has is placed there. A limitation refers to something he must do or not do for the ability to work so I would think the prayer is the limitation of the ability. Ordinarily netero should not be able to fight at all with such a condition but his speed at that point is so insane that he can use god knows how many combinations of attacks in an instant.

Not sure if this belong here or in the chapter discussion thread, but has anyone seen this yet??: http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3098966159?pn=1
Clever theory. It would be a nice tie in and bring the story almost full circle.

Care to copy it here since the link seems broken?

It makes perfect sense aswell considering the Kurta clan aren't exactly the same as normal humans, with the scarlet eyes.

It takes a really long time to load.
I'll paste into under the spoiler tag:

There was also a theory photo set floating around on tumblr with Pariston and Sheila (the girl who found and later revealed the Kurta Clan) side by side. Their face designs are almost identical and she has these things in her hair that look suspiciously like mouse ears. I'll see if I can find it again.

Found it!:

^ It rather looks like near where Ging was when Gon was listening to his tape. But I see your point.

Re: Hunter x Hunter Chapter 348 Discussion/ 349 Predictions

I think the better question is this:

Is Ging overall stronger than adult Gon?

Are you joking? Ging would probably wipe the floor with Gon-san anytime.

Wut. Gon would destroy him, he was at Pre Rose Meruem's level minimum and Netero could do nothing against that Meruem.

Gon became the world's strongest human after aging(not counting Don). Nobody could have won against him besides Post Rose Meruem.

 

[Ener9y]

Netero said that it has been half a century since he was the strongest, he also said that he, at the time, was half as strong as when he was at his prime; he also said that Ging is one of the five best nen-users in the world; and there's the fact that there is approximately 10 year gap between Ging and Gon in his adult form (assuming Killua's prediction was accurate). Having all that into account, we can safely say that Ging is way stronger than Gon-san (10-years-of-training stronger).

Netero might not be the strongest, in fact I am one of those who think Ging was stronger but he was still one of the strongest Nen users. Killua said Gon would have to train insanely for a decade to reach that level but this transformation allowed him to convert all his raw talent into power. It was Gon at the pinnacle, the maximum strength he could attain naturally by training. And Gon's potential is just vastly superior to Netero, he was able to hurt significantly Pitou with a mere kick, a Pitou who is more durable than any human Nen user. She even survived after taking a Rock at the head, nobody besides Meruem and his guards could survive that.

 

[Ener9y]

^Yeah, Killua said that Gon can reach that power in a decade if he trains hard. We can assume that the same is possible for Ging. And we know that Ging is over 30s. Ging wasn't in a coma all that time; he must have been training for the journey knowing it would be very harsh.

 

[Pokkle]

It was more than one decade, it was some decades.

 

[Riyuki]

I bet Netero would've curb stomped Pitou.. Meruem was on a level of his own. Killua definitely said : " Years? Decades? This would've been the result of non-stop training."

Yeah Pitou wouldn't get past Netero's speed with the hands only Meruem could do that imo.

 

[Ener9y]

^True, but it's not all about the amount of aura. Ging has years of experience on Gon. And Gon's hatsu is a joke. Ging will wipe the floor with Gon-san. I can't believe you're comparing the two. We know the limits of Gon-san's strength but we can't say the same about Ging.
