That first cover is so weird. I always feel like he's riding a wheelchair and his two legs are it's handles, yet he's just jumping over a frog.
babby's first illustrated light novel
I'm not the most fervent of fans when it comes to the shounen drama. I'm one of those individuals who proclaim Fairy Tail and Bleach to be utter garbage and Naruto to be the definition of mediocrity. I find most shounen bland, uninspired, and incredibly predictable, utilizing the same old tropes and mindless action scenes. There were some exceptions, however; Dragon Ball was the anime to truly initiate this structure of storytelling, attributing it with originality. One Piece perfected this structure and by doing so set itself above all of its contemporaries. Full Metal Alchemist offered some philosophical depth to shounen, which made the story much more compelling. Then I came across Hunter x Hunter, a manga that initially appeared to have mastered the concept of shounen, much like One Piece. Yet before my finger could click on the "8/10" rating, Hunter x Hunter blossomed into a manga that transcends shounen. A deconstruction of shounen that will stand the test of time, imbued with complexity and intelligence and featuring one of the darkest tone shifts I've ever seen. Hunter x Hunter is a masterpiece.
I like it but the fanbase makes me embarrassed to admit it.
It's got a good story, but it's also homosexual, so I dont like it
I liked it but I hate all the shitposting about it.
Made in Abyss for children. Good but not great.
Masterpiece
Good manga with a cancerous fanbase. Creative, but a bit overrated.

Go back to your containment board hunterchads
Only shonen worth talking about on Yea Forums since Bleach ended
Cant bring myself to read/watch it because of that cover art., it looks like something for toddlers.
It's really enjoyable and the 99 adaption is comfy and aestheticly pleasing as fuck.
Whats wrong with you?
True but I read both HxH and FMA every time.
Not bad by any stretch of the world, especially within the shonen genre and the ones published by Jump, but incredibly over hyped. Personally I feel like it dips into mediocre territory because of the incredible lack of character development and the writer's inability to create a climatic ending. And yes I know I'm going to get a bunch of responses pointing me to the chimera arc etc. But that's the six arcs that takes 185 chapters to get to. In comparison the entire fucking anime of attack on titan only takes about 70 chapters.
And I know it's a weekly shonen so it's quantity over quality but it's still incredibly lacking from every possible aspect.
It's really uninspired, kind of a giant red flag for the entire story going forward.
It's gay and for fags
tournament x tournament
it's generic and I'm not about to watch 75 episodes to get to the arc that proves me wrong only to have to watch 61 more
good. what we don't need is another one of these chimera ant-only fans to shit the fanbase even more
It's pretty gud. I don;t think I'm enough of a psued to 'get' the current arc like hunterchads do tho.
i unironically think I'm too dumb for the current arc
But it's the single greatest story in manga/anime history
Oh boy, this thread is just for me!
I think Hunter x Hunter is extremely overrated, fans of the manga act as if it is some cunning action packed series, but it is extremely boring. The character designs are horrendous, which I could forgive if the story was good, but it’s not. I gave this manga a shot with zero preconceptions going into it because it was so hyped up. I read 7 pages of the first chapter and I quit. Then I keep hearing, keep reading it, it gets better. So I grit my teeth and tried again, made it about 17 pages into the first chapter this time and I put it down forever.
The worst part about HxH is not it’s arrogant fanbase but rather that the manga is so dull, uncreative and long winded that it is a chore to read. Maybe it gets good later like the fans promise, but a story that can’t even get the first chapter right I will give zero chance to.
>but it's also homosexual
A thousand times this
Gon is dressed like a child faggot, and the author literally admits he is into crossdressing and other faggotry. Honestly it shows in the series too, it lacks masculinity and heart. Two “musts” for a manga
The author is a pedophile so that is why the art is so weird
based
Clown and red eyed blond faggot are fun.
Other than that?
Meh.
I'd like it a lot more if that dumb faggot felt like finishing the manga.
It's the best shonen there is and it will be for a while, but the mangaka is a lazy hack and the fanbase in Yea Forums is retarded.
>the entire fucking anime of attack on titan only takes about 70 chapters.
40 page chapters so it would be 140 chapters if you want to do a fair comparison
Garbage except for a single arc
>a single arc
Make it three and possible 2 more in the future?
Hunter Exam - very solid start, nothing more nothing else. But isn't really grabbing enough because it isn't very indicative of what's to come. Including Zoldyk Family.
Heaven's Arena - very competent arc that introduces Nen, immediately you want to learn more about Nen. Hisoka's and Gon's relationship is engaging too, the real start of the series if you ask me.
Yorkshin - a lot of people jerk over it as actual best arc, and it has very neat ideas, the Spiders themselves are an interesting group. I think it's a solid arc, but far from my favorite. In a lot of ways it's Kurapika's arc, which isn't a bad thing, but I also thought Gon and Killua didn't have much to do in it besides being jews for 1/3rd of it and getting kidnapped. It also jerks around too many point of views which can be nauseating. But ending is worth it.
Greed Island - this is my personal favorite. Interesting idea, interesting setting, explores nen further, introduces new engaging characters, shows Hisoka from an interesting side you wouldn't expect a character like him to see. I can see why people can be mad about the ending because what Ging did didn't make a lick of sense, and the villain ain't exactly deep, but I enjoyed the adventure itself, the use of card, the training, the use of nen, it was a lot of fun to me.
Chimera Ant - lives up to the hype completely.
Election arc - fun, but Gon's recovery feels a bit off. I don't really dig Alluka or Nanika.
Where we currently at - I feel like Togashi is trying to fit at least 3 chapters worth of material into every single one. Instead of feeling like I am getting more story, it feels just overblown. The whole king's lineage thing and sibling rivalry, I don't dig it either and don't know where it's going concentrating so much on it. In the end only thing that matters is that Tserriednich is a prodigy, it didn't need to be any more complicated than that. And if anything, it should've been Hisoka hunting spiders arc.
FMA Is shit ruined by dubfags
makes sense but if you think about what's accomplished in that time compared to the hunter exam or heavens arena or greed island. Not even baiting when I say I think naruto and dbz are even better.
>Land of Waves - Hunter Exam - Saiyan Arc
>Chunin Exams - Heavens Arena - Freiza Arc
>Konohna Crush - Yorknew - Android Arc
>Search for Tsunade - Greed Island - Cell Arc
>Sasuke Recovery Mission - Chimera Arc - Buu Arc
it's so obvious how literally nothing seems to happen in HxH, its bare bones as fuck
That is not true and you are the biggest retard for believing that. With that logic, hunterfags/huntertards ruined Hunter x Hunter.
Hiatus x Hiatus
Pitou is a good girl
I greatly prefer its predecessor
the dub is terrible though
>A deconstruction
Looks like our 14 years old learned a new word
I wanna FUCK Killua and Gon
its amazing, and it has two great anime adaptations.
There's a reason that even with two separate anime adaptations it doesn't even rank in the top 20 manga sales
I like it. About the arcs, Greed Island is my favorite, even though it has the worst villain and a stupid ending. Chimera Ants is good, but was too stretched, with a fucking ton of jobber fights.
No it's not.
I hate how people shit on this term even when it's relevant, but I hate people equating it with "good" even more, so meh
That being said, the only "deconstruction" I can think of in HxH is Gon in Chimera Ant being a deconstruction of the single-minded "I fight for my friends!" shounen protagonist
youtube.com
you can't watch this shit and tell me with a straight face that its good. ed and al both have shitty english dub voice actors
thats an amazing dub stop being a weeb
fantastic falseflag.
take your meds tard
Hardcore weeb
nu-Yea Forums lmao
I like how its creater does not give a fuck anymore, discarded the main character and switched to someone else as main in a wordswordswordswords boattrip
what is this image supposed to prove?
Yea Forums was always shit and so were the weebs.
Why do newfags find it so hard to type?
Nigger this isn't twitter, put some effort in or everyone will discard your opinion.
Why all people that are using words like 'weeb' are always retarded to the core?
How would you call a person who is watching burger movies with burger voices and refuses to use fake inferior local voices (dub)?
Just sut up. If you want to be a retarded dubfag, fine. But don't accuse other people that have at least some taste for not using the dubs.
Chrollo cheated because he knew he would've lost in a real 1 on 1 fight against Hisoka.
that your father didn't hit you enough clearly
if you were trying to prove to me that you weren't falseflagging, you failed. you weren't the first person i replied to, and it was obvious because of your typing patterns. thats why i said you were falseflagging, retard.
Hisoka will die of old age.
In these times weeb is literally a compliment.
Especially if it's written by retarded dubfags.
let's play a game, instead of using meaningless meme words how about you explain what about the dub you don't like? Think you can do that for the class?
alright it's clear you probably didn't have a father at all, as it's clear you're going to continue to screen like a faggot so how about you tell me how I can prove to you I'm not false flagging?
>In these times weeb is literally a compliment.
For faggots and retards like you, yes it it. Keep jerking off to your waifu. Peace out subfag.
you are falseflagging. the dub is trash
Any news on the next chapter's release date?
whatever makes you feel better Trisomy
That's what I'm talking about my frustrated friend. Sad to be you. And thanks for proving my point year again. Dubfags are always a subhumans. No matter if we are talking about anime or fucking western movies. All idiots that are using the dubs are equally retarded. That's why dubs are always 100% dumbed down. They are matching your brain size.
Sub is cringy and annoying
Yea Forums was always shit, or the same for almost any other board for that matter, was a self-depreciative meme, which just got more and more true with time. If you compare exactly how shit every board was 10 years ago to how shit they are today, the difference is astounding.
That being said, on Yea Forums it's mostly contained within shonen threads, so it's still more-or-less intact (save the two or three that have been left completely alone for whatever reason)
And weeaboo shit like funimation dubs has so many supporters on Yea Forums now they don't get a universal shutdown as soon as they're mentioned, which is kinda depressing
cope, dubkeks
>there are people here defending HxH
have sex
>reddit spacing
>reddit meme
yikes
togashi can't even have sex and you expect his fans to?
You’re the one who sounds so frustraties and angry about dub and people liking dub, you lying faggot. Subfags and weebs are literally scum and trash of any society. There is a reason why many people think you are fags are weird and autistic. But continue dreaming about kissing your waifu and living like a nip. Kys weeb.
>Starting Dragon Ball with the 7th arc
>splitting DB's 9th arc into two different arcs
>comparing said arcs, that span over a hundred chapters, to shit like the first four arcs of HxH, which end around Volume 18
Every HxH arc except CA is short as fuck for a Shounen. All of them are sub 100 chapters, Hunter Exam, if you count Zoldyck Family as part of it, doesn't even fill out 5 full volumes.
In addition, here's everything of value each arc does
>Hunter Exams
Establishes the main cast, Netero, Hisoka, Killua's family issues, Illumi, and gets the gang (sans Killua) their Hunter Licenses
>Zoldyck Family
Introduces most of Killua's family and explains their dynamic
>Heaven's Arena
Introduces and explains the basics of Nen.
>Yorkshin
Fully establishes the Phantom Troupe and expands on Nen, as well as Nen contracts. This also acts as an introduction to Nen Beasts and expands on the world of Hunter x Hunter. Also makes Kurapika a part of the Nostrade Family.
>Greed Island
More info on Nen and helps reintroduce Kite, as well as introduce Bisky.
>Chimera Ant
This is the first arc in the series that is comparable in aim and length to Dragon Ball. It's meant to be a lead in for Dark Continent with the Chimera Ants, as well as fulfill a lot of character arcs like Gon, Netero, Mereum & the Ants, Kite and so on.
It also sets up another future arc.
>Election
Fulfills Gon's goal. The main character has completed their goal by this point. It took 16 and a half volumes for Goku to do this (win the Tenkaichi Budokai) and for Naruto it took 72 whole volumes. HxH does it in 32. A bit more than DB, but a lot less than Naruto. This arc also fulfills Killua's goals, which is his relationship with his family.
>Succession War and Dark Continent
This will cap off Kurapika's goals and give Leorio a character arc.
>Gyro
It will probably expand on Gon and Killua's relationship, under a different light.
*frustrated
It's dub. It's fake. Dub actors (often failed real actors in the west) are not directed by original staff, but by some other idiots and this fact alone is making any dubs always inferior.
They don't have a clue about source country culture, way of speaking and tmother quirks so it's only natural that it's almost always resulting being a trash. And even if it's not complete trash, it's still always inferior.
Not to mention that if we are talking about anime - original VAs are always representing their characters in various radio shows, live shows or even concerts. They are singing in character songs and doing many other interesting things. I don't even mention about translation itself. So fuck dubs. Only retards are using the dubs.

dear god it's a genuine weeaboo
You don't need to prove my point yet again my ant brained friend.
Seeth, subtards.
If you would work on your text layout (like in your homework) instead of babbling about "reddit spacing" maybe your grades would not be shit and your mom would not have to suck your teacher every week.
>homework
yikes imagine doing that shit
Thanks for proving yet again what a kind of retard you are, you smelly weeb.
this is a big reason I like dubs, makes anime like Attack on Titan actually tolerable. There are so many moments when characters are just repeating each others names to react. Even Reiner getting blown apart and "dying" to the thunder spears is again just him saying 'wait!'
Eat your burgers Apollo. It's amusing that all idiots that are using idiotic buzzwords like weeb are working like clockwork. Literal clones. No wonder that MURICA meme is so popular in the Europe. Stereotypical Americans are not stereotypical. That's how average burger is functioning.
I fucking despise all ignorant faggots like this. It's fucking disgusting.
just go back to Yea Forums already. you'll get more (You)s trolling consolecucks
I'm beyond curious as to where you are from
the snk anime is trash, yet alone the english dub version of it. read the manga, retard.
It's a dub. The problem with anime dubs is that they refuse to speak like fucking humans. Japan does the same shit, but it's harder to tell since we generally don't speak the language.
Consider how taken aback you'd be if a female character in an anime dub spoke like a real woman. That's a fucking problem.
A good example of this is Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse. Compare Issebau's lines (still not super realistic, but bearable) with that cringelord Laura Bailey (Nozomi) who shows up talking like somebody at an adult baby convention.
HxH is based and it makes everyone else salty so that makes it even more based.
Holy fuck. Is this still Yea Forums?
I know. There always was one or two braindead idiots that lrased the dubs, but what the actual fuck?
I didn't know that it's possible to be so ignorant and close minded. Dubfags are truly mentally retarded.
Yea Forums is my board though. Enjoy watching little girls doing weird shit and speaking japanese (a language you doesn’t even understand) Stay in your basement and waste your money on figurines or something.
?
Dubfags are not really treated too well on Yea Forums as well to be honest. Of course, general amount of normalfags is way higher, but I've never seen someone as retarded as that idiot in this thread there.
Chrollo has no honor
For the record I'm not the user you're responding to, but you're both giant faggots for flaming. Getting buttflustered enough to reply to someone you don't agree with who you know you can't change the mind of on the internet is the number 1 symptom of the gay.
Weebs and subfags are the worst. Autistic and retarded as usual.
It's alright
>ALL WEEBS ARE MOESLICEOFLIFETARDS!!!!
exactly something a Yea Forums using retard would say.... hmmm.... go back to ur cuck of thrones and walking dead shit
>weebs
>subfags
Again, not the user you're replying to, but I don't think you really understand the cultural phenomenon that was the pre-ironic weeaboo. It's no longer really something that exists, given they've all been supplanted by the ironic twitterfags.
It takes one to know one, homo.
What does that even mean?
Bye bye faggot, enjoy your kiddy shitty form of entertainment ala anime.
>no argument
i accept your concession.
You're repeating yourself. Just fuck off to your braindead board already.
It's meaningless. What is important, I'm not from burgerland and I'm really grateful that I didn't get born in ignorant, close minded and xenophobic society like yours (yeah, that's the true form of xenophobia).
Learning new languages and cultures is really opening your mind. It's sad that most of you burgers are completely incapable of doing this.
Keep spurting your idiotic buzzwords, it won't make you clever. The exact opposite actually.
Like this user said, no point talking to a autistic retard like you. So enjoy your so called victory and kys.
>im gonna respond to you but im not going to argue against anything you said because i dont know how to!

>get literally blasted by logical and proper arguments

100% dubfag in dubfag.
It's a masterpiece, one my favourite works of fiction.
However, I must emphasize that I do not believe we will be having more chapters in the near future, or that we will ever have a proper conclusion to the story.
>doesn't like anime
Why the fuck are you even here?
What kind of logical and proper arguments did you use except namecalling and throwing tantrum like a angry toddler? Are Weebs really this arrogant?
Don't bother. These idiots are even calling a 'weeaboo' people that are watching any foreign media with original voices and generally hates the butchering called dubbing.
Subhumans like this don't even deserve to be called normalfags.
I couldn't get into it, it was too boring for me.
cope
Typical dubfag mentality. It's possible that he thought that this anime was originally a burger cartoon.
Fucking blind faggot.
I only watch some anime in dub but films and any other foreign media in their orginal language, you ignorant arrogant subhuman,
this thread is the exact reason why anime/manga need their own boards. so Yea Forums crossboarding faggots who have seen the top normalfag anime in dubs can leave mangachads alone.
Oh, you learned new word from my replies. Congrats.
>chads
Apparently it wouldn't get rid of all of the cancer.
What?
Seeth more.

Cancer concentration in this thread is higher than radiation in Chernobyl. Just go back already fucking dubfags.
I would appreciate that. I only come on to Yea Forums to talk about shonenshit anyway
And instaban all dubfags for having no brain.
Poor reading comprehension?
Where did I say that I hated the manga because it doesn’t have colors and/or sound? Calling yourself mangachads sounds pretty retarded.
>i-its r-retarded....
you sound mad
chads is nu-Yea Forums shounenonlyfag speak, is what I'm saying. There's a reason you'll never hear someone call themselves a Johanchad or Reinhardchad.
You sound defeated. Everything okay?
but chadposting and based/cringeposting is fun
>n-no u
cant expect any less from a manga hater
Words of the truth
Only if you annoying fags stay in Yea Forums and stop bothering us with your shitty asian comics. Damn you guys are worse than cockroaches.
again coping with poor reading comprehension. Anime made you braindead, you insolent ape.
>but chadposting and based/cringeposting is fun
I can't decide what's fun and not fun for you, just like I can't tell you not to enjoy twitter shitposting or anime hell groups on facebook, for example. All I can tell you is that it feels very foreign to this board.
Okay. Go back to your local playground, you're not allowed to post on literally any board in your age.
i dont watch anime, retard.
dub = trash
it cant be refuted. only ironic weeaboos watch english dubs.
I don’t hate the manga, moron.
Holy fuck. And you will still argue that watching the dubs is not making you retarded?
you're a fake mangachad
Weeaboos watch subs and go apeshit about everything that isn’t sub or people watching/liking dub.
ironic weeaboos hate when someone tells them that japanese dub is better than the shitty english dubs
>mangachad
>chad
Damn, you’re such a sufferable moron.
I need to save this thread. My collection of brain damaged dub lovers and their 'arguments' is getting bigger and bigger.
In the end collecting it has no sense because all of them are writing exactly the same things like they were programmed.
>NOOO STOP CALLING YOURSELF A CHAD!!!!!! I HATE ITTTTTT
maybe reddit is more your style
see
It's a fact that weaboos watched mostly dubs. It does seem logical that worshiped elevens=watching subs, but that simply wasn't true, generally speaking.
The only board you are allowed to post is Yea Forums. Makes sense with your low IQ.
Literally
No seriously. That's so fucking accurate.
Dubfags are always the same regardless of their 'fandom'. All dubfags are the same.
If you've watched anime, you're a weeaboo. If you watch english dubs, you're a dumb weeaboo. Learn the difference!
Maybe killing yourself is best way to be cured of autism.
> no u
You do realize the term "weeaboo" comes from this board, right?
You guys should read some dramatica or something, at least.
>You guys should read some dramatica or something, at least.
this post reeks of leddit
This thread is full of subtards and cancerous dumb weebs. Best to leave this thread before I become brainless like you fags.
bye bye, ironic weeb
If you're talking about origins, check the meaning.
Calling people who hates the dubs and see how destructive any dubs is a 'weeaboo' is making you simply retarded.
I wonder if someone actually met a real 'weeaboo'.
Finally. You can kill yourself after. One braindead idiot less.
Holy fuck, even cartelfags aren't so retarded as dubfags.
Killua is canon gay. Reminder:
>Togashi previously wanted to write a sports shōnen with a canon gay crossdressing boy as the protagonist, but Shueisha shut him down.
>Togashi would then go on to write Yu Yu Hakusho, a hugely popular series.
>as thanks, and because Togashi had worked himself halfway to death, Shueisha allows Togashi free rein to do whatever he wants with Hunter x Hunter (hence his erratic schedules that would get any other author fired).
>Togashi also has full ownership over Hunter x Hunter, giving him absolute control over the story.
>now that he has so much power, Togashi plans on getting revenge on Shueisha for canning his gay sports manga all those decades ago by making Killua gay and they can’t stop him.
Further reasons:
>in chapter 286 (episode 121), Killua literally says he and Gon will commit "shinjū," otherwise known as "double suicide" — a term connotated with lovers.
>Togashi clearly has an interest in the "weird," as seen with Hisoka and Alluka.
>Togashi is married to Takeuchi, author of Sailor Moon — a series that features canon lesbians. In addition, the current Hunter x Hunter arc features a lesbian kiss between Morena and one of her followers.
>Yu Yu Hakusho has a gay couple: Sensui and Itsuki, showing that Togashi is willing to include gay characters and relationships in his stories.
>everything Togashi does is for a reason. When he includes scenes such as Killua's "Gon, you are light" and "shinjū,” he knows how fans will interpret them. To say otherwise implies he’s ignorant.
>to claim this is all bait is to insult Togashi, because that implies he's a hack who has to resort to the lowest form of writing: pandering. He is not that desperate.
>as seen in chapter 323 (episode 139), even Hisoka thinks Killua’s most “beloved” is Gon.
And the main reason:
>Togashi is a mad man.
I said at least. As in, if you're unwilling to lurk, at least try to understand the board via roundabout means
I'd also imagine rebbit hates Dramatica given its "problematic" content and that you're full of shit.
>If you're talking about origins, check the meaning.
