Hunter X Hunter

Post by **Libaax** » Sun Jan 01, 2006 8:08 pm

Thats was a "pun" by me inspired by HNI,they always make bad puns.

The king is old man and also Danchou would be great against cause he can steal thier skills after he kills them.

He is the leader of group with Hisoka so he is atleast as strong as prez.

Also I know Danchou wont appear but still.

Im sick of the king playing the game all the time,we have more chapter where he plays the stupid game than seeing the story progress.

I wouldn't mind the games with the King if each chapter didn't take so long to come out. I think if I went back and read each chapter after this arc is over, I wouldn't be too annoyed at the sidetracking of the game. It's just the long wait between each release that seems to drag it out and make it unbearable.

Ohhh.. Now I get what you meant. Got a wee bit confused.

I like it when the king is playing that stupid game, it makes me wonder what he'll do with the girl(how old is she, anyway?)..

I didn't think this thread would still be alive...

I for one like the chess-games. It's a nice bit of character development that gives the king a more rounded personality. Though he is arrogant like a prince might be, he still has pride in the sense that he won't cheat to win. More accurately it's below him to.

Gun-gi girl isn't a hunter.

What I'm wondering about the future chapters are how will the chess games tie into the attack on their base. Will elements other then strength prevent the Hunters from killing the King?

Blah, blah, blah...

Gun-gi can be Bisque her face is similer alittle so it can be her playing a retarted gun-gi player.

I dont even care about how they take down the ants, i just wanna see some nen action again and finish this arc for once.

I don't think so. The ants'd noticed that powerful En(or was it Nen?) by now.

Nen

She could be hiding it if she was as strong as we think.

Post by **Artezul** » Wed Jan 04, 2006 11:40 pm

She uses her creams to give her that youthful appearance? Then it's a by-product of Nen.

She isn't Bisque.

Post by **Ruuppa** » Thu Jan 05, 2006 12:25 pm

But how OLD is she?

And is that snot coming out of her nose?

Post by **Artezul** » Thu Jan 05, 2006 11:23 pm

58 years old.

Yes, that is snot.

Btw how many chapters does exists? I got 256 but it doesn't seem like theres been any updates for like 2 months at where I usually grab it.

Or perhaps they haven't been able to, since 257 doesn't exist yet? ;p

It's been so long since the mangaka has released a chapter that I don't remember.

Post by **hadi** » Thu Jan 12, 2006 6:10 pm

it's said that the mangaka is very sick..

Thu Jan 12, 2006 8:58 pm

Yeah ive heard about that as well. However since he was releasing very nicely for almost the whole autumn I thought he was pretty ok.

Post by **vermon** » Wed Jan 25, 2006 8:01 pm

KA KA KA

google is always a good start. i put in a search for it and within the first few results is what you seek

Post by **Libaax** » Thu Mar 02, 2006 4:52 pm

Anyone read up to chap 260? The mission is finaly starting.

I want some Nen action now and it better be great fights to make it worth the wait.

Post by **N3oShweaty** » Thu Mar 02, 2006 5:59 pm

I wish i could yell in this motha fuckas ear that he needs assistants. He can put out some great stuff, although i think this whole "let's start the mission business" was too long. I hope he decides to work consistently from now on. I just dont understand why he isnt held to the same standards that other jump mangaka are held to. Why does he get to put out shitty artwork (it does get much better for the tankouban releases) while other guys put out some great quality artwork like naruto, bleach, onepiece, death note, etc

Post by **Libaax** » Fri Mar 03, 2006 3:24 pm

Thats cause unlike them he has had a big manga hit before HXH so he has more power. He made Yu Yu Hakusho.

When he was at his best at hunter exam arch and the spider arc and greed island arc this manga was the best shonen i have read by far. Thats why its sad to see how bad this arch has been so far. I cant even remember the latest good fight and a chapter where the king didnt play chess.......

still such bullshit. The art level should have some minimum that all manga has to meet like backgrounds where they belong and completely (at least to the eye) straight or curved lines when there should be straight or curved lines etc

*sighs*

The art is going downhill and there haven't been any new chapters for months. I really wonder what the hell happened to the mangaka.

Post by **Libaax** » Mon Apr 17, 2006 10:35 am

I really wonder how he feels about this manga,i mean he dont seem to care for it.

Artwise is more crappier than ever and the great characters like Hisoka,Kurapica,Leorio hasnt appeared in years....

Post by **Lucifiel** » Mon Apr 17, 2006 12:58 pm

Well, we all knew that Leorio was going to be a side character and now, the focus has shifted onto erm, Killua and Gon. I think the crappy artwork is 'cos he's too sick to draw but at the same time, the publishers were not going to let him rest.

bullshit, the art has always been that way(or for a while at least). He just changes it for the tank releases. If he has been sick for the better part of two years, then maybe it is time to stop thinking about manga and start thinking of getting treatments and living. I doubt that it is a sickness because he refuses to take assistants, which would allieviate the self-inflicted stress that is probably causing any and all sickness

Post by **Artezul** » Tue Apr 18, 2006 12:50 pm

It's probably why he is having these extended vacations.

The art has had an improvement compared to the previous chapters. Not that it can compare to the Greed Arc, or the chapters before it. However, I can't really complain about the content; the climax is about to begin.

Because people still read them regardless of the art quality. He's done very well with the manga overall. The pallette of characters he's developed and their interactions with each other have been pretty interesting to follow.

In the end, it's his story; he can do whatever he wants with it regardless of whether it pleases or displeases us. (As shown with the latest Naruto Arc, the quality of the art is top notch, but the character and plot development has been depressing.) Though some of the people maybe turned off by the etch-a-sketch drawings he's put out, no one can hope to satisfy everyone's standards.
