Reasons why HxH is the uncrowned king of Shonen Jump:
>1) Author is not biased towards his main characters. >2) Seamlessly weaves in and out out of genres, going from tournaments to mob wars to MMORPGs to the epic rise and fall of an entire civilization to politics and a new era of exploration and colonialism >3) Fights and conflicts are well written. Motion and stances are given extra attention. Psychology, tactics and information warfare are all a big factor. >4) Togashi is willing to delve deeper into his themes, instead of just putting stuff at face value like how One Piece does it with slavery,cannibalism etc. Example the big bad with the incredibly high powerlevel was killed by a cheap NUKE, deconstructing the concept of powerlevels. >5) Female characters can look extremely pretty with a different set of looks. No sameface syndrome unlike Oda. >6) Explores far more types of stories and challenges, making his work both interesting to read and very unpredictable. Biology, history, language, adventure, exploration, culture, video games, ruins, medicine, philosophy, math, toys, nerd hobbies, wildlife preservation, etc etc.

Well, I can tell you my experience, if it might help. It was 5 years ago when I was 46. I had read all the philosophy I could get my hands on, but something felt missing, I wasn't getting anymore value from my studies. That is when I decided to go into the mountains with nothing but the full collection of Hunter x Hunter volumes and a laptop with wifi. I sat in one spot and would read the entirety of HxH while BTFOing shonenbabies on Yea Forums in between each volume. On the first day it took me 18 hours and I collapsed from exhaustion, but I persisted. I did this everyday, and two years later I could read all of Hunter x Hunter in under an hour, which just left me more time to BTFO shounenbabies on Yea Forums. When I finally came down from those mountains after 4 fruitful years, I was at long last a Hunterchad.
The most impressive thing about HxH is that even after so many hiatus, it still keeps being the most overrated shounen.

He will , why do you think the character Gyro even exists? He's probably a nen exorcist he will bring his nen back at an even better state. I have a feeling Killua and Gon will also reunite in some way since Gon still needs to learn to return Killua's feelings and Killua needs to learn to express himself more. Gon still thinks Killua doesn't care about anyone. Killua was only able to cry in front of Palm.
It would be really retarded if the main character ending was him getting powerless forever because he WASTED his powers on same random minion while the Grandpa defeated the big boss by himself.
Was this talk about him being special and in the end was a irrelevant person who never did anything to be remembered.
Bros I’m afraid that I may get banned again soon for making these threads. I was banned for 3 weeks and was only unbanned 2 days ago but promise me that if I get banned again you will continue the hunterchad crusade. We can’t let the Wan Piss kids win.
This morning, I woke up to some terrible news. Some of my fellow chads and mentors, who hugely shaped my view on life, literature, art and many other things, have passed away. I’ve never met someone as equally impressive, smart and grounded as these enlightened thinkers. It is not that common at this stage of our evolution to have humans who can shape our intellect, interests, and our whole credo in such a limited time-frame.
While we were originally brought together for a common cause to put an end to a mediocre board filled with wrong teachings, I soon began to learn from their views, perspectives and their wealth of knowledge. That will always be fundamental for my understanding of the world. I hope that everyone, when such people cross their paths, never take proven chads like my mentors for granted. I certainly never did, and never will.
To every chad who didn't live long to see the return of our beloved thinker, Yoshihiro Togashi. Remember that, "You carve your name on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share about you."
What do you think is the more likely for current arc? 1) Togashi pulls a Demon World Tournament 2) Togashi stops being lazy 3) They never, ever get out of that boat

>The state of Hunterfags Ayy lmao
Grayson Sullivan
he needs to hurry and come back, i never realised just how boring Yea Forums is without hunterxhunter
Jose Turner
>Togashi pulls a Demon World Tournament Wrong series pall

So when are we going to get a meaningful Bisky fight? or at least a fight with a female character? Do you think theres a chance we will get a female main lead? W Can someone post all the power rankings?
Christian Scott
But user, a female is going to kill prince benjamin winning the succession war
>post about why hxh is so good can't resist mentioning one piece and oda you're going to have to let this go eventually user. At some point you've just started talking to yourself.
No, it wasn't. Togashi wanted it to come out this way because its more Dadaistic and it fits perfectly with what the Koala is talking about.

See? Again HXH fandom tries to make it look like HxH is just CA and nothing else.

Thanks. I love this chapter and discussion about suffering and rebirth a lot. I like how Ironically Guanyin was inspiration for Netero's 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva > "One Buddhist legend from the Complete Tale of Guanyin and the Southern Seas presents Guanyin as vowing to never rest until she had freed all sentient beings from saṃsāra or cycle of rebirth."
The Buddhist influence in Hunter x Hunter goes beyond mere passing imagery: it is part of the very premise of the show. The main character, Gon, was abandoned by his father, Ging, when he was just a baby. He wasn’t left in the woods or anything—Ging dropped him off with family—but it was still parental abandonment, all so that he could go off and be a Hunter. Yet he’s never condemned for this. Gon does not suffer for his lack of a father figure, and he does not foster resentment. Instead, he wants to learn more about the occupation Ging left him for: to be a Hunter.
This may appear to be just a ridiculous situation. Obviously, parental abandonment is generally bad, and the scenario has been contrived for the sake of a good adventure story… right? But this apparent disregard for familial responsibility is actually a part of Buddhist tradition. The Buddha himself left his wife and son to seek enlightenment. Eventually, he found a way to Nirvana, or complete liberation. This requires minimizing or severing attachments and aversions, including familial attachments.
Even if Togashi Yoshihiro isn’t drawing a purposeful parallel between the Buddha and Ging, the influence of Buddhist tradition in this scenario seems undeniable. When you realize this, you can better appreciate what otherwise seems ridiculous: a boy admiring his father for leaving him to go on an undefined search for "that which I can’t see in front of me now."
Togashi incorporates many other Buddhist themes, terms, and images in his fantasy world—ideas that require a bit more study to notice. The more you learn about rebirth, nen, and Eastern perspectives on morality, the richer your Hunter x Hunter experience becomes.
HxHfags are the only ones who are so overly pretentious and ass licking about their favourite show. No other shows fans are like this. And it's not deserved. Now I like HxH, I enjoyed seeing netero fight mereum and the like but it wasn't this pinacle of anime historical piece of art. It was a silly show about silly magical powers, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Bentley Morgan
You're wrong. >Charles Solomon, a writer for The New York Times and Los Angeles Times, praised the moral seriousness of Gon, a quality that gives the protagonist "an appeal his relentlessly upbeat counterparts lack".[128]
>Publishers Weekly mentioning that his characters are "endearing and complex".
>While Rika Takahashi of EX.org and Claude J. Pelletier of Protoculture Addicts both reviewers appreciated the intricate narrative and characters.[9][2]
>While the series as a whole has received widespread praise,[134][135] the Chimera Ant arc in particular has been often singled out. In addition to being met with rave reviews, the arc has generated considerable discussion and analysis of its themes, symbols, characters and structure throughout and in the aftermath of its run. The arc is commonly viewed as a deconstruction of sh?nen and action anime;[136][137] other readings have focused on supposed symbolic parallels with Buddhism[138][139] and nuclear war. Nick Creamer compared the arc to a “war drama”. In a lengthy essay, Creamer read the arc as a study of, and in the end a simultaneous critique and defense of human nature.[140]
>Much of the writing surrounding the arc focuses on its villain, the Chimera Ant King. Largely echoing Creamer’s conclusion, Luke Halliday, in an examination of the character, describes his story as “an exploration into what it means to be human.”[141] In the piece, Halliday describes the King's development as “one of the most interesting and captivating in anime . . . [the King's] journey is simply unforgettable” and states his own belief that the arc “will go down as one of the greatest stories told in anime”.
HxH is a critically acclaimed masterpiece. Your opinion is irrelevant.
OP fags are way worse you brainlet now shut the fuck up because we live rent free in your head.

Is there some projection?

Rest in peace friends.

>Ging beating up people for calling him a bad father Yeah really buddhist
Adrian Reyes
To be honest friends, I am glad i became a Hunter x Hunter fan, every thread is about quality discussion about this series and anime as a whole, the community is always striving for a higher understanding and appreciation of life unlike some other fandoms who fall into the easy but ultimately detrimental path of ignorance, however I hope that they, like us, will see the light too.
I wonder how Koala reacted when he got killed and eaten by the ants. What was he doing in the NGL anyway?
Luke Edwards
Based, I remember talking to a Phinksbro about myself getting banned couple weeks ago of you’re the same guy. These mods are deadass from reddit the way they lick the boots of One Piss kids. Any ban over 3 days I just straight up call my internet provider and say I’m getting ddosed or something and get the IP changed. I got perm banned for “Trolling outside of /b” but was banned for that same reason for only 4 days in a separate instance.
Cameron Perez
What an ugly shit protagonist. Luffy looks trash.
Owen Perry
Yeah that was me. I remember now, I got banned for derailing OP thread and for suggesting to raid many OP threads. What a ride it was, we BTFO many optards that day.
Dude I legit had screenshots but cleared my phone 2 days ago. I said something about how OP tards raid our threads everyday and we should do something about it and you responded with the pic of phinks holding his arm and said like “let’s derail as many OP and MHA threads as possible” we raided like 9 threads and I got banned for weeks for that stunt lol that was good times. Also I remember an Illumibro was with us and another Chrollobro
IN THE THREAD, BLOW FIFTY PASTAS, SHIT, A HUNDRED CHADS SHIT, user WANT TO BANNIN' CHADMAN, HE FUCK A TRANNY MAN HE FUCK HIM IN A HANDSTAND, HIS NAME DAN MAN HE A NEET, IMA' DAB MAN, IM THE CHAD MAN
Ah yes, I remember that day, good times lol. I also remember I got banned 3 days for that prank. Nevertheless it was a good idea, it was a ban worth to teach those opfags and mhatards their place.
Yeah, and now those same kids that raised our threads cry and whine about us in their threads. A few good soldiers can turn the tables quite easily it would appear.
What a time to be alive, to be a Hunterchad. Even if they ban us for a week or month, we never learn our lesson nor do we give up to put those faggots in their place.
Chase Peterson
Exactly, those OP kids don’t understand reason, the only thing they understand is violent thread raiding and I just so happen to be fluent in that language.
