It's either no break or a very short break between the 10 chapters batch for HxH at this point heh! I guess we'll know that soon anyway.

He'll probably finish the boat arc. but there's no chance whatsoever he'll finish the whole series.

Remember this is just the intermission arc before we get to the real meat of gourmet world the dark continent.

Honestly, idk yet. We don't really know how many arcs Togashi wants to do after this one. Or how long will be Dark Continent saga (I say saga because MAYBE there will be many arcs on this continent, idk at all...) Could be a 700 chapters series overall maybe

There's no real meat, everything is important in Hunter x Hunter. It's the whole point of the story, the little detours and all that. I would be satisfied even if it ended here.

I would definitely not feel satisfied with HxH ending in this arc, i can't imagine mysel being promised the Dark Continent and getting satisfied with the manga ending in a "war" between a bunch of whatever prince & princess and their bodyguards inside a boat.

I think togashi should just prioritise on finishing kurapika's, and the phantom troupe's story arc and nothing more.
Don't try to expand gon's story any more than it is. He ain't finishing it and it's fine as it is.

Luckily Togashi won't listen to you.

Shijima's story is pretty similar Final Fantasy X... if anyone knows that one. He played FF9 so i wonder if he atleast played FFX.

And? Like it or not. You ain't getting Togashi's full story so I would rather he finish up the remaining main characters leftover story arc.

Genuinely hilarious how Gokuraku got his moment just 1 day after we all talked about how he did not have any moment since the Bakugami arc

700 chapters? Do you expect Togashi to live for 700 years?

As expected, that was a great one-shot from Horikoshi. I also wouldn’t mind the MC being re-worked into another series. That was a pretty badass final page

In regards to Horikoshi's one shot

Fishhook-man was OK. It has a simple premise, but the atmosphere Hori created was pretty good. Some of the paneling in the last fight was a bit awkward IMO. It surely does seem like it can become a exorcist battle shounen like manu others, but maybe with a bit more horror. Let's see if WSJ serializeS it soon or not

I like the one shot but i hope he doesnt adapt this into a full serialisation.

This is just another hero manga (atleast how that last page implied) with ""horror"" theme. I was really hoping he would go for something either like resident evil or dark souls.

Nishi was listening to us. I also think it's funny we are getting a school arc in Kiyoshi but it's not the school he currently attends lol. Horikoshi one shot was ok.

1: HxH
2: Akane
3: Roku
4: WW
5: Ichi

There's also no guarantee that they actually go to the Dark Continent. That being the arc after the current one is a popular assumption but Togashi can be unpredictable. It's always possible was for the expedition to fail because of the Succession War and that leading to a Gyro arc or whatever

While reading UD i thought to myself that an arc where Haiji loses his visual powers would be so cool

there’s great potential there
