Discussion Kurapika

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

I disagree, especially since most of those you named are already adults and kurapika is still young

only kalluto is younger than kurapika

feiton doesnt look that old though, hes probably 19-20 at most

personally i believe kurapika is a bad matchup for any spider, did you forget how easily he captired chororo?

Age doesn't really matter. Meruem wasn't even 1 . Kurapika has room to improve but so far he is not even close to beat Chrollo. He managed to do it because they distracted him. True, ET and Chain Jail are dangerous weapons but they won't be enough.

Uvo was slower than Kurapika and his tough defense became useless since CJ could just trap him. But Feitan and the likes would outspeed him and kill him quickly. He just learnt Nen in 6 months.

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

None of the spiders have an answer for chain jail

sorry kurapika wins any of these battles, feitan stands the best chance due to speed alone

So you dont believe kurapika will get his revenge on the spiders?

He will be the one to defeat chororo, im calling it now
kurapika will be much stronger next time we see him, and hes not nearly as week as you people claim he is

notice even with uvo's ten activated while he was laying on the table, kurapika bloodied his nose

and


Wow, see I totally agree with you, about Kurapicka being able to take down Shizuku Definitely it'll play out in his favor. Franklin looks like he'll put up a better fight than Uvo or around the same but will be over powered by Emperor's Time All the way around 100%Nen Flexibility. Shalnarak the same over powerment who knows he is smart and fast........

And Yes Chrollo Wtf stomps Kurapica for the most part he has mutiple hatsu technique's, Great Nen user, and very intelligent..Kuripicka is only physically stronger/Nen wise than him but he's still gonna get smoked by some haxx hatsu.

Demonspeed why can't you give Uvo his props Man if you understand the difference in power between Kuripicka vs The Battle Oreintated Spiders.
Togashi wrote Uvo to be the Spider's muscle and Kuripika drops him with Cuny Intellegence,Emperor Time and Chain Jail. Kinda silenty spelling all the Spiders are doomed to die by his Hatsu.

However later on in the manga, with more knowledge about nen in my opinion at least for me it was too much and in hindsight which is 20/20, Kuripicka 6months power difference when put in perspective is PIS. PIS isn't the worst thing, the writer sometimes expands the plot n themes which sometimes muddies up old representations but it's not the worst...Now Bleach on the other hand is just something else entirely

Why is it so hard for you to accept that the reason kurapika was able to gain so much power in 6 months that he could whoop up on the spiders (killing two and could have killed chororo if he chose to) is he is just BETTER AND STRONGER than they are

nen is about devotion and conviction

no one is more devoted to his cause than kurapika

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

He could get his revenge but not in the York Shin arc. He is not strong enough.

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

Age doesn't really matter. Meruem wasn't even 1 .

To be completely fair you picked the worst example to make a measure. Usually, age equals power in the world of HxH as well.

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

For kurapika to be 15 and be able to SLAUGHTER uvo in a fight

it wasnt even a fight, i just rewatched and re-read it to make sure

it was a one-sided massacre

Now i dont think kurapika could beat each spider that easily, but i do think he could beat any of them 1v1

however feitan and chororo would not be easily beaten by kurapika

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

Are you kidding me? He tanked Big Bang Impact and ended up with nothing more than a broken arm. What is Feitan's puny little umbrella-lance going to do? And the chains - Uvo was complaining about the nen in those chains. Kurapica wouldn't even need chain jail. He'd just whip lash the hell out of Feitan. If the chain so much as brushes him in the shoulder that's probably his whole arm gone.

Chrollo is the wildcard. He has potentially all sorts of interesting and nasty conditional abilities with weird status effects. It could see him shrinking the chains with fun fun cloth (then probably realizing that they're conjured Nen - that is, assuming he didn't notice with Gyo from the beginning).

Are you assuming that Feitan couldn't hurt Uvo then? Sure, Kurapika is though but with only toughness and CJ as advantages he is no match for many Spiders, Feitan is way faster than Uvo. I don't get why you say nothing but a broken arm when Uvo himself was satisfied when he hit him here, had Kurapika not blocked it he would be dead

Once again i will argue that kurapika was a 15 yo boy with 6 months of nen experience that completely mollywhopped uvo, in a one sided massacre of a battle

even with feitans speed if hes hit once by the regular chains hes probably toast, and kurapika showed great range , in fact impossible range with those chains

i believe several people on this board believe kurapika is weak for some reason

the dude is a flat out monster

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

Wow!! Slender build Kurapicka was faster than the Hulking Uvo he's sure is some speedster. So speedy he even caught the Spiders leader and could have killed him.

Lol Chrollo's dialogue of Uvo's recklessness when fighting Conjurer's; Nor does an unsuspecting hotel black out slowing Chrollo down mean nothing to you.....Kurapicka was never strong enough to kill the Spiders head on.

He plans and plots and maneuvers......Ya Act like the spiders are gonna sit there and get wrapped up in a chain. Ya act like everybody ain't read the same manga were Kurapicka's knew he couldn't approach them directly.

Kurapika is 15 and?? we're not guaging his potential or debating how strong He can become. Kurapika was faster and smarter than Uvo and had a hatsu designed to defeat his whole crew, but more specifically if he can't beat it no one in his crew can..Kurapika's powers are Plot Induced.....Stupidity.

So you are saying you know more about this story than togashi himself?
Because what togashi wrote shows that kurapika Made uvo his little bitch, and chororo looked like a lost little puppy wrapped up in kurapikas chains

kurapika had mercy and that is the only reason chororo lived, kurapika managed to kill two spiders and render the boss unable to use nen (for a while anyway)

And all of this with 6 months of nen training

kurapika > the spiders, and its not even close

you sound like you have a personal grudge or pis plot induced sadness

because togashi made kurapika a beast

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

I think people must have forgotten that according to Neon's prophecy, 6 of the Spiders are supposed to die and it's not clear if they were able to kill Kurapika in the process. Most likely not because Kuroro was told to seek the aura remover while going east, and we know he didn't find someone that could've removed aura from a dead person. Kurapika is supposed to annihliate the Spiders. He's so overpowering that he can afford to make his abilities suck and still dominate. Do people not pick up the fact that Chain Jail sucks as an ability intended to kill? As Shalunark pointed out, all you have to do is make chains paralyze on touch (much easier condition), and then he can just kill the guy while they're paralyzed and then move on to the next one. Unbreakable chain that forces zetsu is massive overkill, probably because Kurapika intended to capture the Spiders alive and question them. Otherwise he can just Chain Jail someone, punch them in the head and instantly kill them (a guy in Chain Jail can't move and is in Zetsu, so no possible way they survive that), and then repeat.

Refrain from cursing in your post. Mod's will get involved if you continue



Phantron,

The Spiders have to be caught by CJ for their fates to be sealed. Kurapicka Caught Uvo in CJ due to outsmarting him and outwitting him during combat by misleading his Nen category..When that happened he already used IN on his CJ chain and connected it to Uvo......Togashi screws Uvo into not using GYO so Kurapika got a free sample on how CJ is going to work once he captures them.........Don't ignore this fact because it is a Fact this is backed up by Chrollo explaining how and why Uvo would lose and he lost exactly the way he explained.....If you ignore this fact you are just heavily biased towards Kurapika.

The Prophecy was specific on how they died just that they died. But it was pretty clear Kurapicka was picking them off. And Hisoka was trading their abilities for Kurapick'a cooperation in helping him have an audience with the Boss.

you obviously have something against kurapika, and you cannot accept that he is better than the spiders, if a 15 year old boy killing two members and disabling the boss, (with plenty of chances to kill him if he wanted to) doesnt prove he is better to you, then you are obviously biased

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

That question would be easier if Kurapika goes up against a spider now. Kurapika had the advantage of suprise and deception. He fooled Uvogin into thinking he was different nen type which led him into lowering his guard. Would that work now given they know all about it now? If kurapika went straight up against Feitan would it be so one sided? Not so sure. The spiders are all realy good nen users so I wouldn't put it past them to be able to avoid it in a straight up fight.

And little minor thing, Kurapika is 17, mostly like 18 by now.

 

[mousiehamster]

Re: How did Kurapika tank Uvogin's Big Bang Impact?

Christ let's assume Uvo knew the chains were conjured so now he puts up Gyo. Well great, then Uvo goes 50% and Kurapica curb stomps his back and attaches his chains anyway. It wasn't even In that did him in.

In fact the whole thing doesn't make sense. If the chains were attached at that stage, then the whole smokescreen trick shouldn't have done squat. Kurapica could've just yanked him out of the smoke and immediately activated Zetsu. His stupid ability would be more acceptable, and the entire sequence would make more sense, if the zetsu effect could only be activated after the target is wrapped up in the chain for a period of time.

He also toyed with uvo because he wanted to see his strongest attack

he used uvo to test his abilities, that is the difference in power between the spiders and the mighty kurapika

Right now? He'd instantly lose because you catch someone with Chain Jail and that guy just say, "I quit!" and Kurapika dies. Sure, Emperor Time is still pretty crazy on its own, but Kurapika is pretty obsessed with capturing the Spiders alive. If he's just trying to kill them, Emperor Time is pretty overpowering enough that he'd still have a significant edge versus anyone in the world, but Emperor Time is borderline cheating.

Kurapika's far more concerned with getting his revenge in a very special way that he has decided as opposed to even winning. Like he said in the Hunter Exam, he doesn't fear death. He fears that his hatred for the Spiders will go away with time. Nothing he does is supposed to make a lot of sense if he just wants to win, but it highlights just how overpowering he is to be able to get away with very sub optimal strategy and still doing fine. Chain Jail is a terrible technique if you're trying to kill people with it.

Yeah but that's because Uvo was totally unaware of Chain Jail. Kurapika had nothing to worry about because all he had to was use In and was never in doubt of losing.

Err, Ubogin said Kurapika would regret not tying him up while he had the upper hand while Ubogin was at 50%.

So Ubogin sure is aware of how Chain Jail can be used in a combo. He probably just thought he can break out of it even if he was caught.

well uvo was captured by chain jail earlier in the arc

its his own fault for being to stupid to realize at that point, in the car that he could not use nen

if he was better at analyzing the situation and his opponents nen ability he could have went into the fight with kurapika already knowing about chain jail

its his own fault for not breaking it down and realizing it when he was captured initially
