Re: Hunter x Hunter

So is Netero gonna continue fighting Pitou? If he is, does that mean that Gon/Killua would switch opponents with Netero and take on the King?!! Cuz if that's the case, I personally think there should be no way for Gon and Killua to win, even if they are the main characters. There has to be something that happens that allows Gon/Killua to fight Pitou and thus allow Netero to go and fight the King.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

For those of you who can't understand Japanese, I'll try to make a brief summary even though Togashi's HxH is hard to understand.
The guy we see at the beginning is Netero when he's 46. After mastering his body and martial arts, he had a feeling of gratitude towards Bushido which helped him grow. To pay off his debt (I know it's weird), he started practicing his Fist of Gratitude 10,000 times a day. He needed 5 to 6 seconds to perform the whole thing (focusing, praying, stance then thrusting) so it took him more than 18 hours to do the 10,000 punches. But each time he was done, the sun would still be there. Once he turned 50, he was able to do that in less than one hour but he used the remaining time to pray. Once he got off the mountain, he did a demonstration of his fist and people realized he was faster than the sound: he would punch once but would only hear the sound afterwards. Then the man crying is asking him to be his master. This story took place 60 years from now.
Now we're back to Pitou and Netero. Pitou says she's gonna be blow very far away at this rate, so she tries to call Pufu. Unfortunately he can't hear anything as he's focused on the King. Pitou releases his nen (the nurse) which is followed by a description saying that this ability is only to be used for medical purposes, and that it can't move once it's released. However Pitou can move but can't go any further than 20 meters from the nurse. That was what stopped Pitou from going any farther because the nurse acted like a break. It then says that she's 500 meters away from the palace and she realizes that the dragons have started destroying the palace.
Basically that's it! I know it's a weird translation but I hope it's accurate. Let's wait for a better translation!

Re: Hunter x Hunter

you are right, that was a typo.

about 265:
god dam! Netero is awesome. I wonder how strong he is compared to all hunters cause Biscuit said Jin is among the top 5 ( according to Netero). Netero maybe up there with him.
I agree that Gon + Killua dont stand a chance against the king. well, now that pitou was blown back he can go straight to the king.

Anyone know the reason why only one guy is using the chamelion's cloak skill? i thought they would all be under it.

I don't know if the cloak skill works on more than one extra person. Even if that was the case they'd all have to be touching him, and be much slower. Also, their plan was to occupy /draw away the Royal Guards from the king.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Because the author writes the manga in a hard to understand/translate Japanese. Plus there isn't as much group focus on it (compared to something like Naruto...).

Re: Hunter x Hunter

The latest chapters (since the mangaka started the serie once more) are not that great I think..
Too much naration, with "that's what he thought at that moment" or the part where Zeno is comenting on Netero's capacities and stuff... I mean it allows a slow and steady flow of the story while it's something that happens in a flash, it's a nice contrast...
But well... it's starting to be a bit too much I think. I hope the action picks up quiclky and not have people comenting each and every others move (I bet we'll have the standard "at that moment he didn't think of anything, wich allowed him to draw upon such strengh that he never did before"), or comenting weird thoughts of each characters, and stuff. Plus some characters have some state of mind, that are really hard to comprehend. What's with Knuckles reaction? He was glad that Gon went first? Like he saved him or something? What's with everyone thinking that the two in invisible mode might have been dead already?
Well I am not really fond of how things are going, too much cliché suposed to make things cool. Well it's just my opinion :p.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

well, they don't know if dragon dive hit knuckles...

anyways, i'm expecting the next chapter to be have quite a *few* narrations as to where the king is...

and my theories goes,
1)the king eloped with his "friend";
2)the king protected his "friend" from the dragon dive.

btw, where's zeno? is he in the royal kitchens? ^^

Re: Hunter x Hunter

I don't mind the narration in lieu of speech style right now. It cuts down on the time where a person would otherwise state the obvious, have everybody else repeat it as a question, then finally explain it in slightly more detail before things start moving again. That's the kind of chapter filler we can't really afford with only a few chapters before the next break.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

I think the manga has been moving at a nice speed. Togashi is really putting a lot of thought into all of this.

Plus, Knuckle hitting Yupi with that punch out of nowhere was awesome.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Lol its god's accomplice working to the max. No nen makes it a lot easier for them to capture yupi first.

Yeah the story is just getting back into gear again. Its nice to see the story back from the dead with more passion and excitement.

On a prediction note: The king is probably playing Gun Gi. Hahahha its like he's in love/interested in her without knowing the reason. I bet if she dies he will go berserk. Mad Killer mode. Still before that there are the other captains yet to kill off. The Wolf which seems a smart vicious cunning bugger and the crayfish which we haven't seen much off yet.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

It's impressive how Togashi can use 6 chapters on what could have happened in 1, and still have such an enjoyable manga. Hat's off to him.

And yes, great to finally see the manga picking up the pace. With Gon as he is right now I'm sure we'll see him kick some Ant ass soon enough~
