Fun Hunter x Hunter Hangout Thread [01]

I don't understand what this is...

it's a silhouette of the epic moment of Gon going super saiyan mode. It's Gon's maxed out enhancer ability. His hidden power unleashed.

 

[magickirua]

What I don't get is "Bandai".

 

[Pokkle]

Didnt we see Gyro traveling through the town Gon and Killua were training to fight Knuckle and shoot?

Well in the manga of course the anime only delivered his backgroundstory

Yes exactly. Gyro is only Gyro and he isn't a hidden character.

Yes exactly. Gyro is only Gyro and he isn't a hidden character.

Gyro wears a heavy jacket and a hood that enshadows his face.
In his back story he was in pretty much silhouette the whole time.

Spoiler

Now yes Gyro could just be Gyro and not any other Chimera Ant we've already seen.
However Gyro IS a hidden character because we don't know what he actually looks like
nor anything about his Chimera Ant abilities.

Togashi has made Gyro into a huge mystery despite dedicating so little time to him.
The fact that Ikalgo is still loyal to Gyro makes me worry a bit. Especially since Gyro
doesn't sound like the kind of guy to get along with Gon or Killua.

Hopefully though whoever Gyro is...it turns out better than Tobi Twist.

Lol the old Hisoka voice actor will play Pariston Hill

Well but we know at least his size and his character and that he is pretty much humanoid, so I think we can definitvely cross some of the living chimera ants off the list.

Kite <-- too small and still got his own will
Alligator <-- his face is too huge to fit under the jacket
Bihorn <-- his horns are too huge to fit under the jacket
Bloyster <-- His Body wouldnt fit under the jacket
Colt <-- we pretty much know who he was before
Meleoron <-- cant be Gyro because he remembered beeing raised by peggi
Welfin <-- cant be Gyro because he remembered beeing Gyros Bodyguard
Chimera Ant Panda <-- ??
Chimera Ant Octopus <-- ??
This dude <-- Might be our man except his mouth stands out a little bit too far
Hina <-- no her whole character doesnt fit, for Gyro has a strong enough will to remember himself after reincarnation as CA
Ikalgo <-- remebers beeing a bodyguard
Koala <-- he is to small to fitt the silhouette of the man in the heavy jacket
Palm Siberia <-- was turned into a chimera ant way after Gyro left NGL in the manga, also we know who she was before
Pig <-- dont recall this guy
Remora <-- well he isnt even humanoid ^^
Shidore <-- She is Colt little sister
Snake <-- Dont know who u mean by that

Size of the jacket is meaningless. It's a silouete, it could be anyone. Don't rule them out that fast. My bet is on the koala.

So, just as I've been catching up wtih Berserk a few weeks ago, I decided to catch up with HunterxHunter aswell. Mainly because it's getting so much praise when it comes to the shounen genre.
I've watched what's aviable of the 2011 anime and read everything up to the end of the chimera ant arc because I couldn't wait.

And honestly, I have to admit that this series is really something. I'm not surprised people say that it has the deepest character development of any shounen out there. And while Gon is a good main character, just like with many other manga, the main drive for me definately comes from the other cast of individuals.
The Phantom Troupe alone is worth your time, but of course there's Killua's family, Netero, Meruem and f*cking Hisoka (that dude had me laughing tears when he fought Gon in the arena), just to name a few.

Also this story came very close to making me shed tears, which is porbably the highest praise I can give any piece of fiction.

Spoiler

It was the last game of Gungi between Meruem and Komugi to be specific. Altough Komugi alone is such a tragic character that she made me all teary eyed alomst every time she showed up.

The only major minus is the art in the actual manga... damn, some of those panels man.
But since the writing makes up for it and the anime adaptation (at least the 2011 version that I've seen) is so amazing, I can't really complain.

Take notice that Togashi redrawed the scetchy chapters for the Volume Scans. They look so amazing! Sadly theese are noowhere to be found online. You should have to see it for yourself.

 

[Nii]

All the hype for todays episode XD

 

[BurnSchulz]

I just saw the Raw. Dont quite need the Subs (i know the plot anyway). And daaaaaaamn. The feels man!
Perfectly done!

Yay and on top of that. The Sub has been released JUST NOW.
Time to watch it a second time now!

ye but the koala stayed in NGL and had a talk with Kite while the jacket man left NGL befor Morau Nov and Netero even started to siege the nest

 

[kindredxiuxiu]

Hisoka's old voice actor, Maaya Uchida, and Marina Inoue???? I'm super excited for the next arc. I don't even. Has there been any indication that this will be the last arc of the series?

 

[Riyuki]

They will probably animate the election arc and then be done with it.

 

[danzouismadara]

Anyone agree that Beyond Netero is an enhancer according to Hisoka's theory of personality as a predictor of nen ability??

 

[Demonspeed]

The new chapter cover seems to indicate that he is an Emitter. By what we know about him I would have categorized him as an Emitter or a Specialist.
