I mean, yeah, you can endlessly discuss Bungee Gum if you want to, but this is not this kind of channel. Dude is more concerned with, like, themes and poo poo. Maybe I should rephrase: I wonder how many more videos he'll make before it starts feeling like he's forcing it.

Is Hisoka stronger after dying? He's forced to use his nen constantly to just like live but that's also a restriction so his nen is stronger?

I'd feel really differently about this arc if there werent dead women all over T-nich's apartment. that small detail changes how you have to see things.

I'm upset that it took me a year to realize why Tserriednich summons that hellish monster and how it connects to his future sight. I had wondered why he only sees over his shoulder. Feels really obvious in hindsight and it fits in with the established rules of Nen since Tserriednich himself isn't seeing into the future just like Neon Nostrade isn't the one actually doing the fortune telling.

Wow, I didn't even notice. I think I was too overwhelmed with his ability's rules to pay attention to this neat little detail

Viz Media just posted that the wait is almost over... however it might just be the latest volume, the details seemed intentionally vague.

Considering the current release schedule is even slower than that, I find it hard to believe that'd fix anything.

Togashi just needs to hire another artist and simply write it. His designs and art can be great but that's not the main reason people read it.

I actually liked this arc for going back to the sort of monstrosities Togashi really loved to draw in YYH and Level-E. Not enough of them in this series if you ask me.

I'd miss the art but if I had a choice between togashi's art and actually being able to read hxh without hiatuses, I'd pick the latter any day

hire murata.

enough work to double hxh's update speed would only be like, 5% of the pages murata is currently drawing.

Monthly sucks, I prefer intermittent weekly. Especially with a story like this...youd wait a month then get a big text dump, forget everything, repeat next month, etc.

Now I'm imagining some combination of this and the Hitchhiker's Guide's editorial staff, where there's an open desk at Jump that anyone can hop on and try a couple of panels, and chapters only get released when the whole office decides it's close enough to what Togashi would do if he were alive.

The desk is mostly ignored.

I starting watching Yu Yu Hakasho and wow, he really did just copy/paste the tournament bracket from Dark Tournament into the Hunter Exams, huh. Which makes the whole “lol, you didn’t think there’d be an ACTUAL tournament arc” twist that was pretty refreshing hilarious.

Eh, it's fine. Both YYH and Hxh are still some of my fave series and I love talking about 'em. Part of what I love about Togashi is that, even with YYH, he still tried to mess with the formula of punchman/battle manga to some degree. Hence why I love both Dark Tournament and Chapter Black about the same, even if for different reasons.

Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
I've been watching some YYH clips on youtube randomly because I don't feel like going for a full rewatch right now and here's my hot take:

the dark tournament, is good
