took you this long to drop it eh? Chapter 169, damn time flies. I dropped it after too much moralfaggotery and retardation
Samuel Long
This page still hurts me.

MC was already annoying as fuck but I dropped it when the drama train ramped up by killing off a side character for no reason.
Anthony Hughes
Neverland became shit way before that, but this is hardly an asspull. Isabella was shown to have also been a rebellious girl when she was younger. Here she has the douchebag responsible for all their suffering and a chance of payback, of course she's going to take it.
Juan Cooper
I haven't dropped it yet because basically , except it's been like that for almost a year already
At this point idgaf anymore, I just want to see Emma die at the end because that's obviously the cost of her promise
this
if anything the fact they kept her alive is a much bigger asspull than this

You also know that the ring king gets stronger for just having sex with his brides. You don't even need to get them pregnant and we already introduced magical contraceptives. There is literally no excuse at all. 0. Nada.

God I can't believe Promised Neverland became a big hit. I've been reading it since chapter one, and I absolutely abhor this manga. Goes to shit after the first arc, and the only interesting character after the first arc gets killed off.
David Miller
It was interesting when they were still at the orphanage and there was mystery left.
Matthew Allen
I stopped reading around the time Emma said she didn't want to kill the demons. Mama/Isabella came back? What is this?
Lucas Hall
Ill be honest, I never dropped a series because a particular moment.
I drop series because at some point I just get bored and don't read a few chapters in a row and never catch up, or because updates take so much that I literally forget I was reading it.
Jacob Flores
Jokes on you. You already read the whole goddamn thing.
Eli Gomez
They don't know if the magical contraceptives work or not. Also having sex turns you into a sex maniac just like the first Ring King.
Bentley Sanchez
incel spotted.
now you're just making excuses. everybody knows theyre going to fuck sooner or later, at least the main couples are.
the cuck is literally a piece on just dragging the plot at this point.

If anything it makes sense that Isabella betrays Ratri, although I have no context since I stopped reading a year ago

In reality I should have seen this coming since it was shoujoshit, but I was starved for incest manga so resorted to reading this. Wasted my time considering it decided to reveal itself as NTR literally half-way through because no one bothered to tag it correctly.

I hope this is a joke. But I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't.

All the praise, all the hype, all the anons saying this manga was sooo good and how nen is such a great power system. And then I read it and it completely dashes my hopes with this red-eyed fucker. Fuck nen, it seemed like it was cool at first but really it's just "lol fuck you these powers do whatever the plot demands". Fuck HxH fags for getting my hopes up for this garbage.

PSYREN, Rave Master, Yu Yu Hakusho, Claymore...
He's the sole the reason I dropped the series. I was actually looking forward to Gon and Killua's growth and the gum-clown guy was a cool villain that I wanted to see more of, but I just could not stand Kurapika. I also kept seeing stuff posted like pic related that made the series look like it might get better, but I just don't fucking trust it after that little fuck completely ruined my sense of immersion in the story with his gayass abilities.
"Hur, I don't have to be able to beat you, my ability just kills you because I say so cause you're a member of this specific group dur". Fuck that. I wanted to see cool applications and interactions of different power sets, not "I win because my ability is I win".
Connor Garcia
Ethan Cooper
look, you can basically skip this arc and read the rest, Kurapika will not be around until last arc (current one).
If you dont like him ust skip Yorknew, although it's regarded as the second best arc.

I dropped Soul Eater but I honestly don't remember why.
The last thing I remember is some mosquito guy or something along those lines.

Sebastian Garcia
>PSYREN, Rave Master, Yu Yu Hakusho, Claymore...
All of these series have powers that are situationally perfect for the moment. Rave Master is about accumulating these situational powers. Also Dark Brings were super convenient. YYH had a tournament arc where most of the Yusuke fighters got the perfect counter matchup to showcase their abilities. Claymore had people like Claire partially awakening just so they could get the right ability to save everyone. Didn't read PSYREN, but if it's like the rest it's also just as guilty.
Stop lying.
Luis Russell
>PSYREN
This will never not be the most overrated trash I've seen on /a. Everyone claims it's great some sort of master piece when its a half finished rush messed where everyone buts three people powers just turned into DBZ fights.
Angel Garcia
To add on to this only the MC the main villian and the main villians right hand man were the only unqiue powers in the whole thing. But some how turning psyic power into DBZ aura that lets you fly and increases physical strength 100 fold is retarded and everyone can do it
Caleb Collins
While I agree that the examples user provides are also full of nonsense, not one of those series have anything that is even close to the level of Kurapika.
Jacob Evans
Kurapika is a guy who from his first appearance stated he would be hunting the troupe and wanted to do it alone. So he makes a suite of abilities that allow him to fight alone but they come at personal cost and drama during the arc.
The only people who find this objectionable are the same people that think Kurapika is OP. His strongest move only works on 13 people in the world. And any situation where he could use Judgement chain would be a situation where he's already won regardless. There was nothing wrong about Emperor time or his 4 chains. Just an over-reaction that has perpetuated for a decade and then some.
HxH just like any of the stories that user created are all about using abilities both as powers, and set pieces. Few people complain about Chrollo and his magic book that can contain any ability Togashi sees fit to give him and that's another person that has "does whatever the plot demands" abilities baked into it.

This series was just asspull after asspull after asspull. It was absurd.
Christopher White
Kurapika should have had to find a way to actually kill each of them. Him having some super special unique ability that only works on these specific guys but can insta-gib them just makes me not care about the outcome cause I already know how it's gonna play out. It's just a dumb ability. Up until that point the nen abilities all seemed reasonable and like they followed a set of rules, but at that moment it's revealed that you can make absurdly specific requirements on your nen for absurdly specific abilities, just because you want to. It makes nen seem a lot less reasonable, cause it's literally "my nen does whatever the plot demands because I say so, because [insert limitation here]".
I don't care if a character is OP or not, I don't even think Kurapika is OP in general. He's just got a really stupid ability.
Joseph Anderson
>This retard can't see the issue of killing off a character too quickly
Luis Torres
I don't have a specific page but when Air Gear went from Rocket Inline Skating Competitions to...whatever the fuck it became.
Jordan Mitchell
YES!
Jeremiah Butler
>Kurapika should have had to find a way to actually kill each of them
He is but in a different way than having to counterpick each ability. You cannot do that in HxH, so he has a base group of powers and has to pick his fights very carefully. This is why he chooses to capture Uvo the first time to try and pump him for information, and also why he kills Uvo first to make sure Chain Jail works at all since it's the crux of his anti-spider powers.
> Up until that point the nen abilities all seemed reasonable and like they followed a set of rules
In that arc we get an understanding of how Vows work, a fundamental aspect of Hatsu. We also learn that specialists are a thing beyond just the name on a sheet of paper, then in 1 arc we get 3 specialist abilities to show how that category articulates in unique ways. Nothing about kurapika breaks any rules or are you going to be consistent and complain about Chrollo and Neon?
>just because you want to.
Nen abilities are ultra specific by design. You going to complain about Guido and Kastro having clones and tops?
>my nen does whatever the plot demands because I say so, because [insert limitation here]".
Again, that's a baseline for fiction in general and HxH specifically because every arc is based around abilities like this. Genthru is the next example of "I have X limitation and I can do whatever the plot demands." All the chimera ants and specifically Mereum + the royal guard are the same. And the current arc is about an entire family having super specific and plot perfect abilities for the sake of the story.
If you hated Kurapika, you must loathe all of HxH because it's much of the same all the way through it.
Camden Howard
>Him having some super special unique ability that only works on these specific guys but can insta-gib them just makes me not care about the outcome cause I already know how it's gonna play out.
One last thing. Even with his perfect tailor made ability he only managed to kill 2 spiders. So unless you knew that was the outcome it subverts the idea that he would come out on top of all of them just because Chain Jail exists. And now that the spiders know about him and his 4 original chains the odds of him succeeding against them is vastly diminished, something already made apparent at the end of York New.
Justin Reed
Look, if you like the super specific abilities then that's fine, but to me it seems like just a dumb cop out that the writer uses. Instead of the writer having to figure out how to use the characters' abilities in a special or interesting way, he instead gives the characters hyper specific abilities for certain situations that they're in.
I dropped the series at that fight against the strong fist guy, I don't know anything about the other characters you mention, so I can't complain about them. But yeah, you're right, if the rest of the series is gonna have these stupidly specific abilities that only make sense in the context of whatever is going on in the plot at the moment then it's probably good that I dropped it when I did, cause I wouldn't like it.
Blake Wilson
>but to me it seems like just a dumb cop out that the writer uses
It didn't allow Kurapika to kill all the spiders in the arc it happened so I don't see your point or how it was a cop out. Kastro made a clone specifically because he thought it would be tailor made for killing Hisoka. Is that a cop out as well?
Christian Cook
>I don't like that this specific ability explores the power system in a specific way out of the many powers the series has
>I don't care that his difficulties in killing Chrollo ended up being from character exploration rather than power match ups
I mean, you're allowed to have shit taste, sure.
