Discussion Hunter x Hunter Hangout [00]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

where did you hear that hunter? i think its false, until proven otherwise

 

[ttxdragon]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

it's been a rumor and now it's been confirmed (by ritual scan forge --> www.raw-paradise.com ) that it's only a pause and not the end of the manga.

it'd be one hell of a bad point for them to decide to drop HxH, even with all possible tension between mangaka and publisher.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

That thing some guy said it was ending was proven false a while ago, in the thread in the AP forums Battle Franky wrote it. It's just going on hold again, probably for about 3 months, like last time, after next week.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

btw who reads Mx0? did you know it's ending in three to four chapters? along with hatsukoi, poseidon and HxH again, but this time jump is considering cutting HxH permanently! wah! two great series doing unsatisfying ends... jump standards are too high, series come and go... Mx0 is really great, if it was in another magazine it could last around 30 volumes. and HxH, dunno, it's a waste, but i like to think of it as punishment for togashi!

got it from yonie.

 

[sharingan_kakashi]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

I hope that is not the case. HxH is more than a shonen at this point it has a lot of loyal followers. Where did Yonekai get that info?

Re: Hunter x Hunter

I don't know, but he is a Manga Editor, and he got his sources.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

It's true that Hunter x Hunter is going to take another break, as far as I know... but come on, if there was anyone that didn't see that one coming by now... >_>;

For now though, Hunter x Hunter ending is just a rumour, and unconfirmed. It's true that Shueisha is getting sick of the constant breaks, as evidenced by the earlier warning they gave Togashi, but nothing has been decided yet, and he will have cleared their three-months-without-pause-ultimatum by the time it goes on break again, if I'm not mistaken, so it wouldn't make much sense for them to discontinue it (seeing as it's still amazingly popular).

So, until we have some hard evidence, don't treat them as anything other that what they are - just rumours - and follow the Hitchhiker's Guide's advice: don't panic.

(And from what yoniekai wrote, it looks like he's referring to the information posted on the ritual-scan-forge forums a few weeks ago, but the one who posted that has later stated that it's apparently just a hiatus again, and not the end of the series -- and I don't think there're any other reliable sources at the moment, since BattleFranky/TheTouch got his information from the same source, methinks)

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Business wise, even though they have tons of problem with Togashi, it's would be one of the stupidest move ever. They sold 36 millions copies of HxH, not counting international sales and derived products. It's like losing a winning horse. Somebody else will buy the license and continue the series, just like Shamo.

 

[Galth]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Somebody else will buy the license and continue the series, just like Shamo.

Even if they discontinued Hunter x Hunter, Shueisha would still be in control of all the rights. If they don't sell the rights to a different magazine/company, Togashi can't continue Hunter x Hunter for a different company, or even by himself: they'd just sue his pants off.

 

[TheGenius]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

You think that even a major would still have this problem?

And when I said license, I really meant rights.

Or it could be a coup to re-attract Togashi to finish what he started.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

HoHoHo, thanks HS, I thought the Golden week would affect the release.

 

[Galth]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Golden Week did affect the release, since there was no chapter last week. Remember, the chapters from WSJ that we get on the internet on friday are the ones that're gonna be in store in japan the monday after that, we just get 'em early.

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Hey. I need a question answered about something I wondered about for some time. Is the bird Netero, or was Netero the man. Also was that an emission attack he used against Pitou. It looked like an emission attack to me because it was beneath him. Also he seemed to have teleported his nen.

Bird or Man? - http://www.onemanga.com/Hunter_X_Hunter/243/09/
Netero's attack? - http://www.onemanga.com/Hunter_X_Hunter/264/14-15/

We know that transformation users can transform their bodies (Biscuit), and it would make sense for Netero to be a Reinforcement user (because of the way he trained) who has maximized his Emission and Transformation potential. This would also make Netero's nen punch a lot stronger than that Emission attack.

Edit: Just read the spoiler. Damn I can't wait to see Killua in a fight again. Hopefully he uses godspeed.

 

[eyesotope]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

so Killua saves the day and gives Knuckle to plant his fist in Yupi's face?

nice.. thanks for the spoiler Samurai

although I have to say that I was disappointed when Knuckle fell for Yupi's trap, I thought he'll be cautious enough to account for it at least, specially after his "vast experience" was described in previous chapters..

I'll try answering your questions to the best of my knowledge:

-that bird is not Netero, it's just a bird that saw Netero meditating then ran away like hell, it was there to add dramatic effect

-it's possible that Netero's attack was indeed emission but then again it could be something completely different.. so until Togashi explains it's anyone's guess

-actually Biscuit being a transformation type was purely Hisoka's (possibly inaccurate) guess, I would say she's materialization type as her ability suggests (the massage lady who's name I forgot ), transforming form kid form to gorilla form could be her pre-nen ability like Gon talking to animals and Killua extending his nails.. but that was also never explained by Togashi..

 

[CupofDice]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Thanks for answering. I agree with the first two answers, but I still think Biscuit is Transformation. Her strengthening up reminds me of that part with Morau (who is obviously emission regardless of what wiki says ) when he asks Gon to hit him. It seems more of a hint that both are right next door to Reinforcement because they would want to maximize their strength in that area. I'll admit that isn't alot to go on though.

 

[eyesotope]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Morou is manipulation type (although i didn't see wiki) he releases an (aura core) then he wraps it with real normal smoke which he manipulates using the aura core.. but any high level nen user will be adept at many catagories and basic skills kou and gyou etc.. does not mean they are in the neighborhood of reinforcement..

 

[CupofDice]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

Just look at his emitting abilities. He was even able to keep his deep purple soldiers 'alive' when he was in another dimension. Also his manipulation is very simple, simple enough for someone who is not a manipulation concentrated user could use. Remember Gon's fight with that guy in the tower and how simple his manipulation was? And I know that users who are not reinforcement can use techniques like kou. What I was trying to get at was what Biscuit said about a pyramid (or something like that ) and how a user next door to reinforcement might work out extra hard to compete in that area. But like I said, very shaky ground for an argument. The only thing I can think of going against Morau being a emission user and instead being a Transformation user (like stated on the wiki ) is the fact that he can transform his aura into smoke, but transformation users have problems extending their aura (as noted by Killua).

 

[eyesotope]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

in wiki they call Morou a transformation type?? what the hell are THEY smoking??

I think he's manipulation because he never projects his aura away from his body without the smoke.. manipulation users need an object/life-form to put there aura in it, once they do that they can control it through there aura even if it was at the other end of the world..

for example if Shalnark placed his antennae at some poor hap it won't matter how far away from him the guy is, he'll still be under the control of Shal's aura..

like Shal, I don't think Morou can project his aura away without a physical medium (in this case the smoke)..

 

[CupofDice]

Re: Hunter x Hunter

So you are saying that the smoke is real, and not created by Morau's aura? I guess I never thought of that, but it would fit. I still think he was emissions though because being separated by the dimension from your smoke seems pretty high level.
