I wonder if Pariston will fight Ging in the Dark Continent. Or maybe before. Their intellectual battles are already epic.

I'm developing a serious man crush on Ging, I won't even lie. Talk about living up to the hype.

Pretty cool that those guys coming after them was just a "plan" by Pariston to get Ging to use his Hatsu and that he was seen through. I also wouldn't be too surprised if Ging was deceiving those guys with his "apology" and all. I may be wrong, but I can't help but wonder if he saw that as the best avenue to get the no.2 position.

Once again, Ging just shows how amazing he is. I'm to think that he's a specialist, too. Props to him for also once again reading Pariston, and props to Togashi for not only foreshadowing Leorio's abilities through Ging, but hinting at their origins, too.

Fantastic chapter. I'm absolutely loving Ging at this point, & his talent of being able to use other people's hatsu (assuming it's strike-based & he is hit by it [adds another layer to why he chose not to dodge Leorio's strike, though more likely as an added bonus]) is incredibly bad-ass & fitting for his character (it's also nice to know a little more on Leorio's nen ability, not that is was something shrouded in any kind of mystery). Still interested in finding out what his actually hatsu is, & Pariston for that matter but I'm more than happy to wait with chapters like this coming out.

I'm not gonna lie, I didn't like how Leorio's hatsu is used to hype Ging. Ging doesn't need it as much as Leorio. Leorio really needed to use these feats to redeem himself. Hope that he will get new feats ones we get in the Dark Continent. Also I hope that copying abilities isn't Ging's main hatsu, thats Chrollo's thing.

That isn't a hatsu guys.

As said before, Ging simply understand the hatsu and copy it. He's a genius above everyone.
Before anything else, hatsus are techniques with nen, there isn't a rule that hatsus are exclusive to only one person.

And Ging already show that he is a master at the shape and manipulation of nen. To him, it's just a matter of know how the hatsu works.

Neon Nostrade's hatsu is also a natural talent but it's a hatsu. We need Viz translation

My main reason for thinking Ging is probably not a specialist is the fact that him being one seems too generic of a move for Togashi. Making such an important character also a specialist. Besides that, he has the personality of an Emitter and is reminiscent of Yusuke from Togashi's other work. He's impatient, hotblooded and quick tempered like many Emitters. He's a genius but not likely a specialist.

At this point it's impossible to determine Ging's nen type. Which is so goddamn exciting.
Pariston is most likely manipulation type though. http://i5.minus.com/iRDzFLVf1zaHX.png
Looking forward to the next chapter!!


Hmmm, that seems possible although I was thinking transmutation fit Pariston better. He's unpredictable and whimsical. Reminds me of Hisoka. Manipulators are also said to want to keep their families and loved ones safe while Pariston wants to do the opposite although I guess that's up for interpretation. He does seem a bit similar to Shalnark though.

Pariston is clearly a manipulator to me. He has a consistent personality so I don't think he is a transmuter, transmuters are also more fighter types. Pariston has yet to use his fists, so far he s been very good at talking and dodging. He's not impatient either, he's been waiting for Ging to do mistakes.

I think Ging is a Game specialist. The whole theme about him is 'Gaming' and we all know togashi loves games :D.
- He built Greed Island.
- He likes Gambling.
- He likes to do silly tricks with his aura.
- He has a deep understanding of aura, which to me reinforces the idea that he can create complex things like GI.
- He is good at video games.
- All he wants is to have fun (quote from the election).

Even if it is his hatsu, which I don't think it is, Ging says he is only able to use "simple striking techniques" that he has been hit with. Chrollo is able to use more advanced techniques, I'm thinking. Such as the fish he summoned way back at Yorknew I don't think Ging can do something like that. It seems like Ging is literally able to memorize and apply attacks he has taken, which goes to show his level of nen mastery.

I also like that we were shown a bit more about Leorio's fighting style, without him even being present. I thought that was pretty cool, tbh. Maybe he'll develop more abilities down the line, though.

Wooow! It's so cool seeing Ging demonstrate Leorio's hatsu. (It's nice to know Leorio found a medical application with his emitter type nen.)

Ging was a cool character before... but I still used to think of him as a dick-wad. He was so mysterious and manipulative, I wondered what the man's real motivations were. Now, I can feel his sincerity. He genuinely enjoys new things, experiences and challenges. Ah, seriously, Ging is an awesome character.

That's putting it a bit too plainly. He's basically so good that he can learn any physical nen move. Wing said that this was possible.

This isn't even his hatsu. Ging's just that much of a prodigy when it comes to nen, that he can easily copy a simple hatsu like Leorio's.

Hmmm, now that you mention it, perhaps manipulation does fit Pariston better. Well, not necessarily personality-wise but I can better see him manipulating than transmuting. Can't wait to see. Ging, I still think he's an emitter.

It comes from Ging's deep understanding of Nen. I remember a few other instances where Hatsu was 'copied' pretty easily. Gon and Killua mimiked Tsezguerra because it was trivial. Also technically Gon's Hatsu is just a KO so anybody with enough experience can do it.

And I liked Leorio's ability! Is it that simply, really? lol Or is just Ging so badass?

It's already been said that a person Nen type could become a Specialist at any point in his/her life. Maybe Ging was an Emitter, but now that he already experienced enough, I think he has become a Specialist. At least, that doesn't sound generic right?

Some people are confused. Ging's power isn't to copy abilities. He said simple attacks like a "strike attack" are easy to copy. It's not like he could use Netetero's 100 Hand Buddah or Kurapika's Chains. He might be a specialist though, definitely doesn't come off as an enhancer.

Just barely caught up! Though I'm definitely pleased to see that the fan translations have improved since the travesties that were chapters 341 and 342, I'm for sure going to subscribe to Weekly Shonen Jump from now on (not to mention purchase the backlog chapters).

I'll save any real thoughts for once I've read them, but to just quickly comment, I'm really enjoying the new arc so far: especially the return of Kurapika and Leorio, who were my favorites way back in the time before Greed Island and Chimera Ant (each are now my 2nd and 1st favorite arcs, respectively). Perhaps the two of them can dethrone Killua and reclaim their crown; they're certainly on the right track.

Also, Ging, way to live up to your hype dude. Can't wait to see his hatsu, can't wait to see the Dark Continent, can't wait to see where this is all heading! Mega excited.

This only proves that Ging is indeed a Nen genius.
And that double Spirit Gun!
(Learning one Nen ability is hard enough and requires rigorous amount of training, but learning it in just one hit? Dem!)

And yes, that "sonar-like" use of Nen. In par with Gyo and En, it will be like an extended sight, touch and hearing.

Ging was awesome in this chapter. Also it seems he has a similar ability like Chrollo but it seems he can only copy technique that are physical I guess? And he has to get hit by the technique before he can copy it.

Good chapter. 4/5.

the Ging and Parisiton interaction is always entertaining
Ging taking Leorio's technique and improving it after only being struck by it once
also its nice to see Togashi implementing soldiers that don't value money over their comrades
