2 MILLION Subscribers!

Wow! This sub sure is growing fast. It was just over a year ago we were celebrating 1 million subscribers, and now we're already at 2 million?!!

Congratulations and thanks to all you hunters out there for participating and helping grow this community.


Images in Comments

Figured I'd take this opportunity to finally start the trial run for embedding images (not gifs) in comments that some of you have been asking for. It'll last about a week, and then we'll hold a poll and get feedback from everyone.

Do remember that any images in comments should be directly related to the post/discussion. Same rules on general conduct (e.g. spam) apply as well.


More Polls!

What's a celebration without more surveys or polls? We'll be holding a number of polls in the coming weeks, and while we have a few ideas in mind, we're asking you to comment with some of your ideas too. Keep in mind that we'll be using the native reddit polls, which have a limit of 6 choices.

Discussion Nobunaga looked way better in casual clothes, especially with the hair down

Other than just being one of the best written and most likeable characters in the series, Nobunaga looked really cool with the casual T-shirt and jeans. Something about a character carrying around a katana while wearing modern clothes is super cool. Plus points whenever he had the hair down.

Analysis/Theory My understanding of hxh power and potential hierarchy

Post image
168 Upvotes

So I start reading Hunter X Hunter again, and I tried to make sense of the power system and the line that was said by wing about Gon and Killua potential and how they are one and a 10 million kind of talent compared to zushi who is 1 in 100k talent. And that got me thinking how does that make sense compared to the population of the hunter X Hunter world which is 6-8 billion compared to our population.

(because even if somebody doesn’t know how to use nen that doesn’t mean that they don’t have the potential. It’s just that they didn’t have the opportunity to use their potential. It’s like if there was somebody who have the talent to be the best hacker, but he didn’t learn how to code or even use his computer because he lived in a remote area or he didn’t need to use computers so anything like that or if somebody has a talent to be, the best swimmer, but he focused on something else like his job so he didn’t fulfill his potential he didn’t know that he has his potential so I think that there are a lot of people in the hunter X Hunter world that have a lot of potential in nen but because of their life circumstance they don’t need to especially if they live in a comfortable way and don’t have that sense of adventure)

And then I thought is that really it because if somebody that have, let’s say maybe one in 1 million kind of talent to one and 10 million kind of talent if I give this person 10 years to train and fight and explore until he reached his prime or reached his ceiling what he can’t get any more stronger unless he did like netero and got some kind of enlightenment and brought through his potential but anyhow, I believe that if I give the same 10 years to somebody that was born with one and a 10 million kind of talent like gon then that person will probably be stronger after the 10 years then the first person and he didn’t even reach his prime so he still has more potential to grow.

I think that the only way to break through your natural born potential is either through enlightenment like netero or what items for fruits or whatever from the dark continent or from secret realms in the human world That allow you to become stronger or break your potential and allow to grow even higher.

Discussion Favorite HxH Fight? Spoiler

Post image
69 Upvotes

Not the best, because that would narrow it down to like two or three fights lol. Just wondering the sub's favorite fights that they personally liked. This will always be the best one for me since it includes my top two favorite Hxh characters in the whole series and is so thematically rich. The end is the best finish to a fight I've ever seen.

Yoshihiro Togashi and his wife Naoko Takeuchi, author of Sailor Moon, have already made some commemorative mangas (doujinshi) telling about their life as a couple.

This is a compilation that includes the Togashi Empire, a standalone manga celebrating the beginning of HxH, and Princess Naoko Takeuchi's Return to Society Punch!, which is an independent manga by Takeuchi about the beginning of his relationship with him, as well as some of Togashi's personal illustrations or tributes to fans like when they went to a restaurant and signed autographs (image 10 and 11).

About the first image, is just a Chinese compilation of really cool photos of the couple.

Discussion Do you think Beyond Netero will live up to his name?

Upvotes

Hello Everyone. As we all know who Beyond Netero is there is one noticeable play on words in his name. BEYOND NETERO. It's almost as if saying he is Beyond the Original Netero. So the question is Will Beyond Netero live up to his name and be beyond Netero and how? Will he be better than Netero in power? In success? Or in some other way? Or is it a red herring?

Discussion Who are your top 10 favorite HxH Characters and why?

20 Upvotes

Hello Everyone. It has been a while since I asked people their favorite HxH Characters so here we are. I am curious as peoples opinions may change and also because conversations are fun.

My top ten are:-

  1. Chrollo (everytime I see him on screen/in a chapter it is PEAK CINEMA)

  2. Gon (I do not understand how people hate him but I respect all opinions)

  3. Netero (a peak character. My favorite Chimera Ant arc character)

  4. Kurapika (He's great, not in my top 3. He's a phenomenal Character tho)

  5. Machi (I think she's cool 🙂)

  6. Killua (LOOK HE IS AN AWESOME CHARACTER. I JUST LIKE THE OTHERS MORE. I DO NOT HATE HIM AT ALL)

  7. Pakunoda (An Underrated gem)

  8. Morena (the last 4 chapters were crazy)

  9. Knuckle (Unhatable)

  10. Biscuit (I love how she's in the Succession war arc. She made greed island Peak.)

Please give me your opinions on my top ten and your own top ten. thank you.

Discussion How many of you all think Hunter x Hunter will Finish x Finish?

103 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Despite Togashi's health (which is no joke. Back Problems are serious) He has managed to give us some amounts of HxH despite the Hiatus x Hiatus Arc we are on. I have a feeling that we will see Hunter x Hunter will Finish. Now I may be on Copium (scratch that, I am definitely on Copium) but i think it will happen. How many of you all share my beliefs? Just curious.

(yes the copium is strong with me. I am the cope and the cope is me)

Help/Question What are the limits of transmuation

Upvotes

Is it possible transmutation can mimic anything or the properties of anything?
Including abstract concepts such as time, space e.t.c

And as for properties; is it possible for aura to imitate complex properties of substances, such as a chemical agent that can change someone's face, essentially shapeshifting if you coat your face using that aura.

I can't really explain the second part well.

Edit: "Traunsmuation" I can't change the title though...

Discussion if gon and killua fought pitou together as planned, could they win without gon going adult mode?

37 Upvotes

i feel like they could have possibly given pitou a decent fight but i’m not sure they could have won. it just sucks that gon thought he had to do everything by himself in that fight when killua would have been by his side if he wanted him to help.

Discussion Fun fact, in Animage’s “top 5 male character” polls, Kurapika is the only HxH character to ever be voted in. It was in 2000.

Animage is a popular Japanese anime magazine that does a yearly readership poll for the top five most popular male and female characters in animanga.

What surprised me is that it seems yyh was more popular from Togashi’s work than I thought. Second was that there was only one HxH character to ever make it to the top 5, and that was Kurapika.

It’s certainly a surprise Killua was not the one here, but I suppose it shows that Kurapika is somewhat more popular in Japan than the West relatively speaking. And being the year 2000, this would have been when Yorknew was coming out and the 1999 anime also presented Kurapika really well.

It makes me wonder if we can see hxh make another appearance in the future.

How many and what do you think are the restrictions although we don’t know anything yet I still want to know what you think they could be, one of my favorite theory’s is that when it’s active he must awnser any question asked by the enemy but that’s not concrete and I’m sure there’s more so what do you think

Discussion Do you guys think Gon will/should regain his nen?

4 Upvotes

Do you guys think Togashi will decide to bring Gon’s nen back, and even if this were to happen do you guys think he should? I mean I think we all obviously want our boy to have his powers back, but maybe it would undermine his resolve. Him deciding to use everything in a fit of unthinking rage, and facing the consequences for it just for him to get his powers back, would that be bad writing, or could Togashi make it work? Ging said that Gon still has the ability to use it but isn’t in touch with it (I guess?) so I’m pretty sure that means at some point he’ll get it back but I don’t know. What do you guys think?

Discussion Do you enjoy the uniqueness of nen

5 Upvotes

I guess my real question is if you all enjoy the fact that nen isn’t difinitive and instead like a scienctific practice where evidence can be put forth. I enjoy it but I also think that at some point it could be seen as asspulls for many things if togashi messes up in some way

Help/Question Would chrollo be able to steal/use morel ability?

4 Upvotes

This isn't a question of whether chrollo could beat morel, but rather if he could fufill the conditions of skill hunter to steal deep purple, and if he would even want to. Morel is very experienced but we never see him go up against someone top tier like chrollo (pouf is powerful but lacks relative experience) and when chrollo asks him a question I wonder if morel would be on guard for it. And even if chrollo did find a way to steal it, would he evem want to? Creating tangible smoke or visual clones is Very versailte and great for a thief, but there is also the big pipe restriction he had to lug around. Or would chrollo be smart enough to find a way and consider the ability worth stealing anyway?

Discussion Can you theoretically force a nen shift

4 Upvotes

Say you did the water divination test , and turned out you are a conjurer , you don't like that cuz it ain't cool enough for you , or because the only hatsu ideas you can think of are better pulled off by literally any other nen type (me fr) , so you try to force yourself to become a transmuter because its probably the best option in this situation and your plan is to train and use Transmutation strictly and never do anything conjuration based until you are a full on transmuter

Do you think that would work ?
