Sorry the best part of the CA arc will always be Knuckle infodumping about his power and overheating Gon’s brain

Thats true, the power of being a Big cheefer was also impressive enough to get up to three Star hunter

When your power depends on outlasting the opponent, getting them to sit still for a while is a great side hustle. And Gon's a polite kid, he's generally not gonna interrupt someone's monologue... yet.

My favorite part of HxH is when the narrator talks about how Shoot realized his signature move and overcame his cowardice.

Tosk posted:I tend to prefer YYH as Togashi's magnum opus (not least because it was at least finished), but I think the Chimera Ant arc and its resolution probably end up being one of, if not the, strongest shonen arcs of all time. Remember, it was a biological warfare thing as well. Which makes it more hosed up than just a straight nuke.

A biological warfare thing inspired by old, out-of-date superstitions about how radiation poisoning worked. A lot of people believed that you retained the radiation you were hit with and were, basically, contagious. It lead to the ostracization of thousands. I'm sure Togashi doesn't actually believe that's how it works and it's more that it's based on that old idea, but yeah.

Is this special illustration even from Togashi or is it someone who worked on the show?

I was hoping this would be signs of life but if it's not from the man himself then it's not much more significant than fanart.

"Anniversary" is a pretty loose term as far as HxH is concerned

Hisoka is almost sorta kinda maybe a '''''hero''''' in Yorknew, dodgeball, the Chrollo fight and ensuing Spider hunt, if you squint really hard

Anti-hero, maybe. Does heroic things for villainous reasons.

I guess some of the English manga volumes are hard to find these days? I bought a new complete set 7 months ago for $450, and it just sold in an ebay auction for $630. I was expecting to lose money on this, not make a profit.

I was expecting to lose money on this, not make a profit. As someone who runs a store that sells manga, they're pretty much on perpetual backorder. It takes months to get anything in, if it ever comes in. It was bad before the paper shortage/supply chain stuff, it's been next to impossible since. Printers can't keep up with demand for new series like Chainsaw Man or Jujutsu Kaisen, I don't think many of them are in a hurry to print older volumes of HxH.

Yeah, I wanted to read the series proper after only watching the anime and hardly any of the volumes are readily available. Which is a shame as a virtually anime-only guy, there’s some series that elevate their original work but Togashi has a singular, almost surreal style that can’t easily be emulated with animation, and that’s just my perspective from the first four volumes.

Maybe it's because it's been three years. But I was re-reading the last chunk of this manga series and these pages felt eerily similar to a certain fight between a clown and a bookworm. Series is 'Battle in 5 seconds after meeting'. You can find it on most aggregate sites and an official TL is available on Comic Key.

just pretend Togashi died in real life. his return to making manga is about as likely as the second coming anyways

HxH collab is returning to Puzzle and Dragons. Clearly this means the manga is coming off hiatus. https://twitter.com/numanuma259/status/1492889993983193089?s=21

Paper Lion posted:just pretend Togashi died in real life. his return to making manga is about as likely as the second coming anyways The man is rich as gently caress and has a lowtaxian level of back problems. I dont begrudge him for stopping. But closure or handing his story outline to a Murataesque art machine and letting them wrap it up would be nice.

I'm curious to what extent Togashi fleshed out Gungi's rules, and how much he's involved here. and yes, ZepiaEltnamOberon posted:Clearly this means the manga is coming off hiatus.

I should put the link to the page. https://store.universal-music.co.jp/s/hunter-gungi/ I hope someone translates the rules so I can try it.

I wonder if the rules have been developed by the man himself. Clearly he loves creating systems and rules.

Will the rules match up with the game states and strategies Komugi and Meruem played is my biggest question

in all my years of headcanon. I never considered the idea of capturing an entire stack of pieces if their altitude matches the opposing unit and all of them are the same color. Also interested in what the rules will look like.

Last I checked the guy was in pretty bad shape health wise. At this rate it honestly might be better if he either formally cancelled the series or left the art to someone else (he could keep writing for it if he wanted). Handing the reins over to his wife could be cool should she feel like tackling another manga.
