Nen is the most well thought out power in shonen

He has 5 OP powers and the restriction is only on one of them

>someone else tries to kill you
>can’t use it to defend yourself
unfortunately togashi is too much of a retard to really push that idea in the manga, could’ve been interesting.

There's no point. He has 4 other op abilities available.

His real restiction is that one second of emperor time equals a hour of his lifetime. He lost over 10 years for a blunder

even that has restrictions
>m-muh Killua can make orders to the wish-granting entity
Which will be explored in Dark Continent if we arrive there one day

That makes no sense, it's just a db way to limit him. A lot of time he doesn't even have control when his eyes go red. Why would it take from his life span now that he has been, or did it always even as a child?

Huntards always got one piece in their mind kek

That restriction vow is what makes it OP in the first place tard.

>create unlimited op power
>i-it'll be explained!
kek that's the point.

OH MY BUBBLEGUM ANUS

They meant that the series is over and you need to let it go.

>Introduce new concept to the story
>Then explain said concept
Yep, that's how it works in every work of fiction in the History of mankind. Were you born, like, yesterday? Care to give me an example of a manga that does the opposite and give you an explaination of a concept before the introduction of that concept?

>It means that's it's overcomplicated for a children's manga and that makes them feel smart. Not to say it's overcomplicated as in hard to understand, but overcomplicated as in, it's all just the same shit with different names for no reason. It's a simple power system with a lot of over explanations and different terms when it's just the same as another implementation.
It's funny because you literally did the same thing.
KEK

>asspulls are okay because you explain them afterwards
The absolute state of huntershits

Are you retarded or what?

it's so flexible that if you think something seems wrong you can bend the rules to make it fit

don't care, I still love hxh

Audience has to be eased into a new concept. Especially ones that involve omnipotent trannies. You can't pull it out of your ass and think a subsequent "explanation" will suffice. Otherwise writers could just make up whatever they want.

Of course you do lol tranny

you know that you will never be a woman, even if you cut that little pee pee between your legs right?

Was that hard for you to accept?

Your mom's too fond of my dick for me to ever think of cutting it. It would break her heart, poor woman.

kek. I really must've hit a nerve lol

yes, your post ruined my day

The problem isn't with adding new ideas to the story, the problem is the thing conveniently solves a dilemma the protagonist was facing without any prior nods which kills the tension completely and robs weight from Gon's sacrifice

This is the only way you can communicate with HunterSHITS. So yes, I did.

Yes. I mean why would nen now cause something as natural as his eyes turning red to suddenly take his lifespan away. Is this something all Kurtas have to deal with?

If not, it's just a limitation for the sake of a limitation.

>this is the only way you can communicate with huntershits
HOLY COPE

Exhibit A.

>when my eyes turn red *I* and only *I* gain a benefit.
>when I get this benefit I also lose lifespan.
that's it.

What if he doesn't use that benefit but still technically gains it? When exactly does it take away from his life span?

my killua thread got deleted...

The reason why HxH is good it's because of the story, the whole nen thing is still cringy as fuck.

That it naturally provides the characters' powers' strengths and weaknesses, that it allows for a lot of creativity while remaining mostly mechanical, which in turn limits what the characters can do, and that it naturally gives you insight into the mindset of the characters' abilities

For example, Tsubone in your pic. We know she is a Conjurer, that her Hatsu is called Rider's High: Perfect Girl's Seven Transformations, and that she placed as her condition that she has to have a pilot who controls the vehicles with Nen. All of that fed to us in a single paragraph, but it very much tells us all we need to know about the power and her backstory:
>as a Conjurer, Tsubone's specialty is turning aura into matter, so it should be fairly obvious that in order to transform she has created seven clone bodies that she stores in a pocket dimension that she also created, and basically exchanges her own body with these whenever she transforms
>this also explains her restriction, as Tsubone as a Conjurer has limited Emision, which means she would have problems piloting these bodies herself at full power from a pocket dimension
>moreover, the ability as a whole emphasizes her absolute commitment and loyalty to Silva, since she could have chosen to just Conjure vehicles but instead chose to turn into one to not be a load to Silva while remaining close to him
>the mention of the Perfect Girl/Yamato Nadeshiko also shows her traditionalist mindset and self-esteem, and shows that she sees her loyalty and usefulness as a source of strength and worth

You can basically see her full backstory: a young woman who had seen herself as worthless. Perhaps a prostitute, or a homeless person, but was rescued by Silva in some form. Perhaps he killed her former boss and took her as a Zoldyck butler. She then took to accompany him on future jobs and desiring only to be useful to him developed her hatsu.

A lesser writer would have given her a sad flashback. ToGODshi gave us a paragraph

And this is basically the level of insight and thought that goes into EVERY line and panel of MASTERPIECExMASTERPIECE. Every character a world to themselves that we can only glimpse in the pages.

are you legitimately retarded?

Kek, HxH really filters

Attached: 1649191185244.png (449x666, 121.13K)

I think the main strength of HxH is in it's character writing. For example, Gon would be a pretty lame protagonist in a vacuum but I think Togashi manages to make him a good character through his interactions with others, and he was instrumental in making Killua such a great character. Another example is Meruem, who would also be pretty lame on his own but his relationship with Komugi is incredible and acts to convey the main message of the CA arc, which is that all life has value

Killua not using nen to transform his body and conjuring afterimages will NEVER make sense

Explain how any of that works. Why does something he always has, red eyes, suddenly cost him his life??

if/else statement.

Togashi takes a lot of liberties with human biology (eg. Netero surviving for 5 years with no food or water while doing strenuous exercise every day, Hisoka reattaching his arms with 0 issues after a pretty long time), the only explanation for Killua's hands is that he can do it simply because he can. After images are just an optical illusion, although they usually only happen for bright objects irl

the whole point of limitations is that you are paying something in exchange for more power; he could have chosen not to lose lifespan when his eyes turn red but then he would get no extra power

Obviously. My point is that it's really fucking dumb to take such liberties when you already have a holistic magic system that could easily explain those breaks from reality.

Lmao at the pissdrinkers incapable of finding a single flaw in the masterpiece that is HxH.

Don't need to downvote, pissfags. You can't.

But he never consciously chose to be a specialist, just something his teacher noticed and he was a specialist. He just got that power with nen.

Yeah, thats the dumbshit part.
The whole specialist category doesnt makes sense, its an unecessary accesory Togashi included to say "this character is important". None of the characters who are classified as "specialists" really need the category to explain their powers.

can you explain what you think it's wrong with the ability?
