A Climactic Encounter Ending on 1 Negate and a Dream

boat arc has tested the faith of even the strongest togashi likers. I remain a pariston partisan but have resigned myself to the fact that the best we’re going to get any time soon is a block of a dozen chapters and then another multi-year hiatus

The boat arc whips you're crazy.

Apparently this game lets you burn red life for a hit of pseudo-x-factor, which you can stack on top of actual x-factor

I think he just means that for every batch of 10 chapters we got from the boat arc, there has been on average like 1.5 to 2 years of hiatus between them.

the arc started in 2012, isn’t even a third of the way through, and is filled with pages that are just walls of text of irrelevant scrubs plotting against each other like this one



sure nobunaga and the new guy got to kick rear end and solve a nen puzzle but the latest chapter came out in december 2022

hell even the hisoka vs chrollo fight happened before trump got elected. hxh kicks rear end but yeah unless someone other than togashi takes the reins we’re not going to see the dark continent within our lifetimes

Would you recommend the manga or the anime for new nenheads

Anime, 100%. It justifies itself well beyond just being an adaptation of a good manga.

The anime is genuinely the most complete HxH experience you're going to get. It builds up an ending, hits the ending, and while it doesn't wrap up every plot point HxH probably was never going to do that anyway.

He's a loan shark. Which also works with his visual design.

the kamen rider fighting games kick rear end. dragon knight is a game with frame 1 throws and no throw tech so 'blocking a jab' becomes a 50/50 situation

I feel like I've learned so much about hunter x hunter in the last page and a half

In the gameplay video it looks like one of the supers makes the main guy, gon I guess, get tall and have hair that puts paul to shame and that seems pretty neat, I'm guessing that's like.. a super saiyan kinda thing?

I'm not super into the designs other than the suit guy looks pretty cool so I'm not sure it's for me, but it's cool to see an actual full on versus style tag game coming out
