Serious Frolicking posted:the spiders and hisoka were absolutely not equipped to capture genthru alive while he was on greed island. anywhere else, sure. but on greed island he was a master. yeah he was sufficiently good as a hunter to mean he'd be able to escape using cards unlike most of the other people on greed island

i like how unconcerned hisoka is that he lost a foot and a hand also i realise that while most hunters don't have a huge amount of nen abilities and Hisoka is closer to enhancement than materialisation it doesn't really feel like its come out of nowhere if he uses a different skill. this is the first time we've seen him fight anybody who would require anything more

i think you're reading the wrong manga. the hiatus starts when this fight ends and then we never get any more

Rohan Kishibe posted:I always thought the arm wrestling results from the Troupe were meant to demonstrate how strong the Troupe was without using nen. I mean, Gon never suspected anything from Shizuku when arm wrestling and vice versa even though aura use would be both visible and you'd probably feel it if you held hands. I got the impression it was explicitly with nen which is why gon who barely knows any beat shizuku and the list starts with enhancers and then hisoka

I can't remember does Chrollo lose an ability he's stolen if the previous owner dies? I thought Shalnark's power could be used with any phone but it doesn't come across that way

ImpAtom posted:Hisoka is using texture surprise to hide himself but he's effectively a walking zombie held together by Nen now which is a hell of a weakness. He's got fake limbs and his body is literally held together by his Nen functioning. He's a zombie and the second he gets put in a situation where he can't depend on Nen he's dead. he'll heal eventually so that he doesn't die the moment he can't use nen but will still obviously be hosed from losing a hand/foot.

Machi could presumably provide more permanent and better healing for hisoka in all the places that can be stitched up but she would be able to make it go away when he attacked people so fixing himself makes more sense

his plan backfired though by giving hisoka a knowing chance of being dead so trying out nen that might revive him

Bisse posted:True, his plan failed to take into the account the properties of rubber and gum. lol but essentially everyone we've seen die due to nen has had it happen fairly suddenly while hisoka knew it was happening and also knew nen could work after death so went for it. him not being brain dead is a bit dumb but otherwise what he did is entirely consistent with the in universe explanation

tbp posted:I can't get over how good I think that fight was, some of the imagery was so evocative. The piles of bodies climbing on one another to tear down and break a murderous clown flying through the air while others explode around him is just so outrageous it was really good and i was completely wrong but i'm glad of the results anyway

Serious Frolicking posted:Rather than saying he resurrected himself resuscitated would be more accurate. There is a clear distinction. It only worked because his body was more or less intact and he died from suffocation. All of his wounds are still there and were still bleeding until he used aura as bandages. you mean ignoring the fact he was brain dead

While they're part of the greed island arc its a fairly natural progression for them being there as part of the wider story. the only bit thats too convenient is the person they're after being on greed island. phinks/feitan ending up there made fairly good sense that they decided to play a game they stole. they were then involved in a very short side arc providing info about their powers/the city the fact that they might be involved in the current arc assuming hisoka doesn't kill them all still fits their MO of stealing anything worth stealing

EmmyOk posted:He is listed as an Enhancer but he is the only Troupe member we've met that has not displayed their ability. Keep in mind Enhancers can also just make objects more powerful as opposed to just being heavy hitters à la Uvogin and Phinks. especially when they hold particular attachment to said item

EmmyOk posted:God it'd be amazing if Hisoka tracks down Nobunaga and is prepping to keep out of range of his sword and Nobunaga just pulls out a nen pistol and gut shots him. Deception is the sharpest blade, Hisoka this would be some huge fail because nobunaga thinks the power of gum and rubber is easy to deal with

Roland Jones posted:I liked Kortopi and his design a fair bit, too. I wish we had gotten to see at least a little more of him before his unceremonious murder. Decapitation while using the restroom is pretty bad. Also Hisoka did something to cut off his head without cutting his hair, so it wasn't just a clean kill from behind or something. texture surprise + bungee gum

e X posted:I don't really share Kurapika's assessment that Pariston doesn't know about the succession war, just because the temp hunters didn't know. Pariston is exactly the kind of person who would withhold vital information from people to create a more "fun" experience. Also, isn't the fact that the journey will determine the next ruler public knowledge. How does the public thing this contest will be settled? considering a lot of princes are using the succession as leverage against the one they want to win because he is a reformer it seems unlikely that its public knowledge do they even have the nen beasts at this point? i can't remember and thought they were going to get them later

Bad Seafood posted:The twist to Alluka's wish granting ability is that selfless wishes cost nothing, or next to nothing, or at the very least if they do end up costing something that something isn't the usual terrible price. Killua gets "Free" wishes because he understands that, and makes his wishes accordingly. for some reason i thought it was that he gave orders rather than asked for wishes which is why he could do it whenever
