| Glad it's back and glad we have a new storyline. The new characters seem interesting. I'm wondering where the 'anything can happen' aspect will take this storyline? Rannta said: I'm not native english speaker, so i ask, was it "that" complex this chapter or there are translation issues? It didn't reveal too much to be honest, one of those that'll top-up info as we go along. |
 |
| I don't get why togashi's always so worn out. I mean, what has he been doing for the past two years??? well, unless he just likes to keep his life very private and he's been going through some shit none of us know about, then that would be understandable....but we wouldn't even know, so we just have to assume he's being a lazy ass for now, lol |
| Oh man this arc is looking really awesome. The art is so much more improved. It really shows a calamity of urgency and danger the likes of which most hunters have never experienced. Great stuff This arc is really looking like an actual hunting arc. I love this world developing, he's expanding just like i thought he would. |

Fiji said: I am glad that it is back... although I think the story from now won't be interesting, seeing as Gon and Ging actually met each other already, which has always been the goal and was fulfilled already. Are you kidding me, it just means that the story can shift into a new and refreshing direction. This dark contintent, already has me really intrigued. Ive always really enjoyed the world developing aspect of togashi's creatures, environments, etc. A new world to explore with infinite possibilities. |
| |
| T^T finally, my thanks sensei and welcome back |
| the text above may contain error... fuck that this text may contain errors u.u because I have no proper knowledge of the English grammars (i learned English by playing games and reading things so ye that's it )  and this thing here ^ just don't want to update to the correct colors |
| Oh yes, good chapter. All aboard the hype train. So glad it's back, though i only had to wait half as long as most of you guys here! still killer wait though :P This new arc seems like it's going to be very interesting, i can't wait to get into the dark continent and start exploring its secrets. Question for me is, if the dark continent is so dangerous and perhaps worse than chimera ants how is this even gonna work, people will just get wrecked. Is gon gonna be going there or what? or is he gonna train for ages? Still need to catch up with kurapika, leoro, see what killuas doing, hisoka anyone? the phantom troupe. Lots of stuff to come, my body is ready. |
| Does anyone else need a doctor to confirm that someone without a head is dead? |
Fiji said: I am glad that it is back... although I think the story from now won't be interesting, seeing as Gon and Ging actually met each other already, which has always been the goal and was fulfilled already. Gon has always been sidetracked from finding his father throughout the story. Ironically he met his dad without even giving a thought about finding him. Also it was metenioned awhile back that Gon and Gryo were going to meet at some point in the story so i would say he still has relavance. |
| Would've loved to have seen some Gon, Killua, Kurapika, or Leorio. But nonetheless it's good to have the manga back up and running. Yay for no more Hiatus x Hiatus! :D |

| its like im reading a One Piece chapter with that amount of text in it lol, but its good that its back |
| I wonder when next hiatus will be... |

Nicevil said: Great chapter, love the writings. Plenty of stuff to discover. Remember when Silva Zoldyck said that Alluka is something from a different place, something dark? http://puu.sh/94S7w/ba8369e0d8.jpg The mutilated twisted corpse with just the hands and feet visible is similar to Alluka's victims, so we can safely assume that Alluka is from the outside~!! http://puu.sh/94RTr/a4ded6410a.jpg Also Alluka's ability was illustrated as a mobius snake with the line "the degree of wish Alluka can grant is probably infinite" which is very similar to the two tailed snake. Maybe Alluka is one of the 5 calamities~! http://puu.sh/94Sdz/96c24a6fd3.jpg This means that one of the Zoldyck's probably accompanied Netero to the outside world and brought Alluka back. Maybe Zeno's grandfather Maha, the only reinforcement user in the family that fought Netero once. nice catch everything makes sense that alluka is a freak. togashi you genius |
| Cty Best mid |
| Aaaaand it's back, hopefully it stays. I was really hyped, it's kinda lame that none of the main characters appeared, but I liked it nonetheless. |
| Please understand. |
| I love the foreboding in this chapter; the Dark Continent isn't simply dangerous - it seems to be a legitimately fucked up place, possibly filled with eldritch horrors. Mix that kind of setting with Togashi and you have gold. I'm truly excited to see where things go from here, and here's to hoping Togashi can keep a good run going before the next break. |
| I'm so happy it's back! :D Great chapter imo. Can't wait to see where this arc goes. |
| That self-sufficient humanoid was ridiculous! Scared me out of my socks... I'm loving this view on immortality being a virus, an agonizing disease you have no choice but to life with. Ughhh But wow... I'm loving how HxH is so uncliche in that the greatest threat to everyone isn't just an actual person or being, but these five 'calamities'. It's still really vague right now, but I'm really impressed how detailed Togashi goes in for his arcs, from the personalities of the ants to the landscape of the dark continent. He's a brilliant storyteller that's for sure. |
 |
| I... That... Humans twisted up like braids... is kind of disturbing. I know HxH has a reputation for breaking shounen tropes, but human braids are kinda... gory. (I bet Neon would love a human braid for her collection.) I wonder what did that? There was one picture of what looked like a human compressed and flattened like a pancake... It reminds me a lot of Alluka killing someone by completely crushing them... I guess Ging is going to have a big role in this arc. I wonder what the main four are going to do? |
SaSa-Zoldyck said: Good build-up chapter, damn these people can talk. It took me 15 min+ to read this chapter. Not that i'm complaining. Btw I was bit dissapointed that we didn't get to see anybody from the main cast. Such a troll move lol. ------------ Are you guys repairing for the next hiatus, we all knew that he would take another break. I just hope that he will publish 24 chapters before his next break. 6 months should be enjoy for my HxH fix.. I know it's only two chapters in but I find it kind of interesting that so far not a single main character (as in, the main five we were introduced to) have appeared so far in this arc. Course, I'm fully expecting Gon to get involved & hoping beyond hope that Kurapika finds his way into this arc as well. It's definitely going to be interested to see where this goes though. This chapter wasn't really anything all too special, outside of being the return but it was still effective at building up the Dark Continent. |
lebron181 said: Well, the main characters need to take a step back and allow the arc and the new characters to be introduced. It will be quite boring if the whole HxH world revolved around Gon and Kurapika like how Naruto is. Well I don't think I'd ever get bored of following Kurapika (especially considering how long it's been since we've seen him [sans the cameo in the Election arc]) but regardless, I agree. One of my favorite things about Hunter x Hunter is the wide cast of interesting characters, most usually, with a vital role to play. It was brought up & I just find it kinda interesting, that's all I meant by that. I'm realizing now bringing that up then going to say it wasn't anything all too special probably left it easy to infer my problem was the lack of the main characters. That's not the case though, I didn't even have any issues with the chapter. |
| OMG, it's like I'm reading some difficult textbook there. Netero's will is hilarious though. Hoping to see more from Ging in the future. |

| Keep moving forward |
| So , I was thinking about how togashi might approach the complexity that he is facing with gon . knowing him he would try to avoid the cliché route all time but there might be one solution to it unless it is too typical. If you are updated with the latest chapter then there could be some speculation regarding new developments of the unknown power that resides on dark continent . When killua called nanika to appear and heal gon it was never mentioned that nanika saved his nen ability . what if nanika’s ability goes so much so as repairing one’s life from but not its nen characteristic because nanika is altogether from another world where nen is not prevailing power but supernatural elements are. From chapter 341 , we can see that nature of co-dependence is what gaseous elements are . what if when somebody is healed by a creature from dark continent stays in a matter similar to the nen exorcism ? I remember in greed island something stuck with that nen exorcist . this phenomena might or might not be relevant here. The point is , if togashi decides on showing that gon was only physically healed and he paid the price of not using nen anymore will that work on the main protagonist of a series ? so far we haven’t seen gon using nen after his healing . not being able to use nen for life is great compensation for that powerup against pitou . what if the healing from nanika injected gon with another gas form which requires co-dependence as said in the latest chapter . in that case will that be another clever manipulation of togashi for gon not using nen but still being powerful by some unknown supernatural power similar to alluka .that is totally speculation by far which requires much further data and confirmation and not to mention its difficult to predict togashi … |
| Interesting that the anime episode showed how togashi could make new powers a tool for tragedy, and a day later in the manga, he did the same with immortality. |
| Well this was..meh. I guess I would just let the chapters pile up, until the next hiatus. |

| Kite with his friend already had contact with Kakin in the beginning of the ants arc. Maybe a new contract . http://i37.mangareader.net/hunter-x-hunter/186/hunter-x-hunter-326580.jpg |
Broachesty said: I'm kinda interested to find out where all these "human grapes" the ones that were like palm but never got introduced. They would make for good test subjects sending into the new world Pandora box another great hype a long with the unruly gatekeeper (but really a gatekeeper for part of world common) edit: I really hope that the new world isn't some sort of different dimension and they go all gurren lagann Anyways glad its back these authors need to take better care of themselves oda sensei is down for 2 weeks now too :( The human grapes were mentioned during the election arc. From memory, but see ch. 331 |

They speak about Kakin in episode 76, it is Hwang from Kakin who tell them about the pieces of the queen. And Banana tell that they have done a inventory of species for them. We saw them in a office in Kakin. |

| Good chapter! It really makes me look forward to what's to come. Who is the New World's gatekeeper? I guess New World is kind of creepy, not only there are beasts out there but it has catastrophic environment as well, such as deadly viruses. |

If you are updated with the latest chapter then there could be some speculation regarding new developments of the unknown power that resides on dark continent . I think the thing to be looking forward to with Gon is the fact that he's now a hunter that's gained true notoriety; once he's back into the fold of things, he's going to see that he's grown quite famous among other hunters; I doubt his exploits are going to have gone unnoticed, as however unusual the circumstances, it's indisputable that he's the only human to have killed a royal guard 1:1. Of course, include his very public exchange with Ging and Leorio shouting throughout the election to save him. If he has managed to get a star out of the ordeal, Kite and/or Biscuit may gain another star (assuming they're only 1-stars), if he could be construed as an official disciple to either. Anyways, he's going to be sought-after now, star or not, given that he took part in the extermination. I wouldn't be surprised to see Morel and crew to jump back into the fold again, as they held Netero's will near and dear to their hearts as well as the Zodiacs (I see it very likely that Morel will become a three-star after this, and possibly replace one of the now-resigned zodiacs). I think it's safe to assume Leorio and Killua at least will be major players in the coming arc, as Leorio has shown clear regret in not being there for Gon. As for Killua, it seems likely that Alluka's mysterious and terrible power may be related to one of the calamities, so that's an inevitable draw for those two. And if the criminal underworld is as heavily involved in illicit operations with the DC as this chapter suggested, it's highly likely that we could once again see the PT getting in on the action. That of course, brings in Kurapika. It's all looking like a very grand shitstorm may be brewing down the line, discounting what's sure to be a very fucked up locale for it to all take place in. I'm beside myself with hype, of course. |

lebron181 said: Is Kite still considered as a hunter though since Colt and the other ants are put in protection as mythical beasts? I've wondered that myself - I'd say it's up to him. Given how open he was of his existence to Ging and Gon, and the fact that he was spouting his identity of being Kite seemingly from the moment he could speak, then I'd guess that he's likely to take up his duties again. As far as being reclassified as a magical beast, I don't think it's ever shown anywhere that a magical beast cannot be a hunter - I personally don't think it would be breaking any rules, but I guess this is something that we'll just have to wait and see on. |

I think it'd be interesting if Kite had to take the Hunter exam again... Does Kite even still have his/her license? |
| This build-up chapter is quite interesting, but I still hope Hunter X Hunter still will keep it's style: have the smart battles.. Wonder to see with whom Gon will cooperate this time as the 'main character' after Killua left.. And I hope Togashi is not going to hiatus in a short time.. But at least now I have one manga to read every week ... :) |
"The Slave is the have-not, the oppressed one with nothing to spare. But because the Slave is in that despairing situation, having nothing, it can kill the Emperor !" |
| I thought, like someone here also mentioned, that Togashi would ~go back to its roots~ with Hunter x Hunter. Guess I've got it all wrong. Let's see where this will end up. I'm curious, but with a curiosity sort of strange. Like when, in the Troupe's arc, there is that part when Gon and the Troupe's leader have a little chat and Gon, in that obscure night, looks to him and ask why do they (the Troupe) kill people that have nothing to do with them. Gosh, I want more! Hopefully, Togashi's ~worn out~ is partially result of his work on this next arc. Thinking all those things must screw up a little bit one's mind. lol |
| What exactly are the 'roots' though? |
| For HxH, I think it's exploration, but a more ~light~ sort of it. Here I feel a darker tone as in the Chimera's arc, but, sure, HxH is suppose to be dark. |

I really feel as though this arc could open up to something really great, new world development, new powers, new characters. Probably on the same lines of the dark world tournament saga of YYH, accept with out the tournament. To me that is what its kind of aiming towards. I get the feeling that we might be introduced to a whole slew of new characters and enemies down in the dark continent and we might get a sense of just how dangerous this place is. I really like the mystery aspect of this arc, this is where Hxh shines imo. |
