The only thing I kinda like about HxH is that Gon is basically the logical conclusion of a Goku/Luffy type of personality in that he's basically a high-functioning sociopath that isn't as evil as most of the people he fights only because his moral compass very barely points in the right direction so long as things mostly go his way in the end.

Hate to break it to you but the end of Bleach actually happened. so anyway what's this about rumors of the hiatus ending on the 26th? Or was that just bullshit again considering that it was a thing about the hiatus ending? Bible Ian Black fucked around with this message at 20:23 on Jun 18, 2017 |

Gon is mostly a stable boy who had a happy childhood? I mean, if you want to see someone who is pretty screwed up you can always picture Killua's childhood and life up until the Hunter's Exam.

A happy childhood, yes, but in some ways his background is more alien to the audience's than Killua's is. He grew up in a very rural area without a lot of other children around, and thus doesn't even know what video games and the Internet are at first. Also, he may have been sexually abused by female tourists.

I don't think Gon is a sociopath. Sure, he's a weird kid, but as far as weird kids go, he's got nothing on the Zoldycks. He's just kind of poor at dealing with situations he's got no time to assess or, when he does know what's up, deals with things as he sees fit in an (admittedly) extreme fashion. For example, the fight with the bomber is scary as gently caress, not only because of the circumstances that Gon is willing to put himself through to defeat the guy, but because the bomber himself is getting psyched, like "Is this kid out of his loving mind. HOLY poo poo, THAT WAS HIS HAND! WHY THE gently caress IS HE STILL GOING? I JUST BLEW HIS loving HAND". And before he knew it, he's on the receiving end of an rear end-beating. So, while Gon might be a strange little bugger, I don't think this alone qualifies him as a sociopath.

Hunter X Hunter is super subversive and interesting in what they do with Gon for example thanking Bizolt as well as not judging Zepyr(?) when he showed them how to fake antiques. Just lmao if you think he's a socipath though.

I grew up mostly w/o a ton of kids my age so I could relate to Gon For example, I didn't know how to create DVD/CD discs and a ton stuff all the way through HS esp if your parents didn't want you to play games/watch tv/the internet. Ofc, I'm better off now but I did lol how Gon has to return to school now he's just a regular kid again. fwiw: That scene was a creepy and idek where it was supposed to go other than Gon had no friends other than Killua.

I like it. The cover isn't too cluttered, the colors seem nice and fit the blue police sketch of Chrollo. Good stuff. Chrollo's bemused "This clown again" look also makes the cover great. FanofPortals fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Jun 20, 2017 |

Kinda strange Hisoka's only appeared on three covers to date despite his prominance in the story. In any case, cool cover for a cool volume. Shame past experience dictates it'll be a year before it's available in the States.

So, before HxH comes back, who do people think will die on the boat? All the Phantom Troupe members except Kalluto are doomed, of course; they're on the same boat as Kurapica and Hisoka, along with a lot of other strong people who aren't on their side, and there's no obvious narrative role for them on the Dark Continent itself. Kalluto is relatively safe because Kurapica wouldn't kill a child, and while Hisoka has no moral qualms about it, he would be reluctant to kill someone who has the potential to become much stronger, or one of Illumi's little brothers. Then again, Hisoka might be so angry at the Phantom Troupe right now that he doesn't care about things like that anymore, or Kalluto might betray the Troupe at the wrong moment and get killed by Chrollo. Leorio is safe because killing him off before he gets his turn to be the main character would be pointless. Kurapica probably gets a degree of plot armor as the current main character. Most of the Zodiacs will probably survive so they can be relevant to Dark Continent stuff, but some of the more narrowly combat-oriented ones might die. As for the Princes of Kakin and their mothers, Woble will survive and Tserriednich will die, but I have no idea about the rest. Biscuit should be fine as long as she doesn't fight Chrollo alone or something. The other bodyguards are toast. Silver2195 fucked around with this message at 04:36 on Jun 21, 2017 |

Kurapika should drown himself and let the trip be Hisoka's wild ride instead of Kurapika's boatventure

Silver2195 posted:So, before HxH comes back, who do people think will die on the boat? Of the Zodiacs, Cheadle (the dog) is the main one and a non-combatant and thus probably safe. Saiyu (monkey) is also likely safe since the's the traitor and thus has a role to play on the Continent itself. Mizaistrom (ox) is the other prominent one besides Cheadle, and I'd put him as less safe than she is but moreso than most. I feel like Botobai (dragon) is the most vulnerable of the group, though he might survive the boat journey at least; he's supposed to be the strongest but also has among the least characterization, so he's the prime person to get Worfed, here or by whatever nasties are waiting for them on the Continent itself. Kurapika and Leorio are both obviously safe. Hisoka... I feel like taking down the Troupe may end in his (final) death too, it's hard to say. Most of the Troupe is in for it though, yeah. This is not a good place for them to be. Hm, I feel like I had a post speculating on which of the princes would survive too. I've forgotten a lot about them but I doubt my thoughts there will have changed much if I refreshed myself. Baby's probably fine, mother might not be, etc. We'll have to see. Edit: Found my old predictions, as well as my post summarizing who all the princes are, for those who have forgotten, like me: Roland Jones posted:Stealing your pictures (and one from MonsterEnvy below me) to make a list of the names of and what we know about the princes. Thanks. Roland Jones posted:Okay, let's see. My bets are on Woble living, while Tserriednich and Benjamin are probably hosed. Chourai is almost definitely dead too. Camilla I don't think will fare well either, though Tsubeppa might have a chance. Harkenberg I can see going either way; I both really want to bet on him becoming king and on him dying, so I can't really call him. If he doesn't die early on and throw things into chaos, he's going to be a major player, at least. Momoze and Marayam I want to live, but the Ant arc showed that children aren't safe here so I can't say for sure. I want the sisters to live too but I don't really know enough to say either way. Lazarus/L'Souris is almost definitely dead I think. I think I stand by most of this still, will have to think about it a bit more. Chourai's definitely dead; I remembered him as "that guy I think is going to die" even before I went and found those posts. Lazarus is hosed too probably. And of course the big bad of the arc and his lion-killing half-brother are not likely to make it either. Roland Jones fucked around with this message at 07:40 on Jun 21, 2017 |

im half scared almost everyone dies by the time the boat reaches DC and then the story focuses on ging and paristons A-team edit: im sure once beyond actually breaks out of his cell theres gonna already have been a bloodbath thats taken place and thats gonna be like the midpoint of the arc i think

I think Beyond will stay put until they make landfall because he has to stay on the boat until then anyway. I am still wondering if Monkey is actually the traitor because it was so easy to find him, maybe that was just to show off how strong Kurapika has gotten.

The only 3 people walking away from this alive are probably going to be Hisoka, Leorio and Kurapica (maybe Ging and Pariston), and that's only because of MC clause.
