4:00 Just because Kurapika is going to die... doesn't mean he wont be alive at the end of the series. Woble called Kurapika "da da" and has a currently unknown powerful Nen beast being developed rapidly as mentioned Infants learn Nen instinctively. Who is to say Kurapika can't come back if Woble's Nen beast is developed to revive her 'parents' if they are lost.
I still am quite sure Woble does not have a Guardian Spirit Beast, and her nen is because she's Beyond's child. The language about the Seed Urn ceremony is very specific, and states that after the drop of blood is put into the top, the prince must put their hand into its mouth with a strong desire to be King of Kakin. This mindset is impossible for an infant to understand and have. Just like how the exact language of the Princes being children of legal wives, and not children of the King was plot relevant, this one must be too. Otherwise Togashi wouldn't have written it that way.
@@Yonkage-ik5qb That's a cool theory, but it contradicts the participation of pretty much all the younger princes. Momoze straight up says she doesn't have what it takes to rule, Kacho and Fugetsu explicitly didn't want to participate and I'm pretty sure that Maryam, while older than Wobble, is still in the "doesn't fully get what's happening" camp. I don't think any of them could be said to have "strong desire to be the ruler of Kakin" besides maybe Fugetsu for the sake of her sister
@@user-zz3sn8ky7z I mean, it's not exactly a theory that they have to desire the crown. It's straight up what the rules are. And a six-year old absolutely can conceptualize what that means.
There’s just no way Phinks or Feitan are getting killed by a bunch of nen amateurs. I don’t care how much aura they get from killing people, they literally have known nen for 10 minutes. You’re not beating an experienced nen user without any training.
I'm shocked Liam would call it "narratively efficient". We are talking two spiders who faced Chimera Ants head-on, one being a squadron leader that will eat the whole Hei-ily members for lunch including Morena. Have we quickly forgotten the scale of destruction these two can cause? Liam disappoints me.
I agree it would cheapen the story if these novices were able to take out the Troupe just because they have an abundance of aura now, do the mafia members even know the fundamentals and basic and advanced forms of nen outside of hatsu?
yes, they can... have you guys forgotten that pure aura, can overwhelm even the best training. case in point is the chimera ants..especially the royal guards and meruem...even the best nen users couldn't overcome them..also, we have no reference on how powerful level 51 or 62 is
@@Jahshehs lmao your comparing regular humans to Chimera ants?? the mafia members aren’t even close to that level of power, outside of the ants becoming nen users they already had extremely high strength and durability, also the only ants the hunters struggled with were the royal guard and Mueruem, the other lower ranking ants were not an issue what so ever
I think that anyone complaining about the card game, has lost the connection to the author's work. The flow of a story isn't supposed to only be climax, and if you complain at any setup chapter I honestly think story telling isn't for you.
Even tho the negotiations chapters were slower, I still really enjoyed them and have no complaints, I've been interested in Morena for a long time so its nice to get to see her more
A big thing I feel is getting looked over is that Dogman is likely to hit lv100 in the near future. With how crowded the area Chrollo was in it’s completely possible that he can take out 38 people in a few seconds if they actually come to blows.
I think there's an outside chance Dogman targets Might because he smells a Nen user and then unknowingly kills Halkenburg to get a full 50 at once. Or maybe his nose lets him detect Prince's so he might even deduce that Halkenburg is in there and thinks he's relatively safe because everyone else thinks he's dead, thus making him an easy target for the one person who might be able to figure it out.
The levels have no scale yet, so the number doesn’t mean anything besides the added ability of making your family which takes time . Like with levels what would chrollo be? Cause , chrollo is like the equivalent of 100 000 normal people. A unarmed human is a bag of meat to him
Did we just dismiss the idea Issack Netero messed around with a queen of Kakin and that's why Beyond was able to work his way up in politics so fast to be right next to Nasubi. I feel like any other outsider wouldn't be looked upon so fondly. And the scar on his face is much bigger but I can't stop noticing it while 2 scar patterns are extremely relevant in this arc
This is off topic but always thought that Neon was killed by her father. He was going crazy last time we saw him and Neon was just mildly confused and concerned with her ability no longer working. That relaxed behavior in contrast with her dad losing his sanity a few steps away made me think she probably asked for something really big that she previously thoughtlessly enjoyed and sent him over the edge. Idk i always had this thought of him strangling her once Chrollo confirms he no longer has the ability.
Same. It's not hard to imagine, Togashi just left it open ended bc our minds will restlessly examine it. Neon is ignorant and unempathetic, ironically for reading something as complex as fortunes. She's terrible at reading people: Chrollo, Kurapika, her father etc. showing genuin mourning for their losses. Except Light constructed this by constantly helicoptering her, it was purposely conveyed that Neon was annoying. She doesn't read the room, her tragegidy is that anyone and everyone including her father really tolerated her for her gifts or status. She's lost both those things and she's not aware of the ramifications. A litteral boiling frog that lived in ignorance and well die there. With Togashi leaving us with, "I'll leave it up to your imagination." All we are sure of is that Light sucks and he's the true of evil of that arc. Religiously hiding behind his daughter and acting like a mafia boss. A literal nothing character. Weak minded and selfish to the core. The escalation to his depravity was apparent.
Another reason why Morena's kisses are so "bad" is probably because the only context she was kissed was as "meat". God knows what sort of "kissing" she experienced.
I've been thinking about that possibility of Phinks and Feitan walking to their death to power up Borksen, and while it facilitates things, it would feel so damn cheap to have two of the most hyped members just die to nen newbies. They would have to walk into a lot of traps and conditions for it to happen, there is NO WAY they die in direct combat, it would be straight up poor writing. I can see it happening, but I can't say I agree with that choice.
I think that Bork will forego Morena's desires about her ability, and create an ability incredibly similar to Morena's to empower her friends. She made a point of clarifying that Morena was a specialist.
Bro I REALLY do not mind how many chapters we spend on seemingly random, seemingly small moments like we have been lately. Spending time getting to know two interesting, deep, nuanced characters better, learning more about Morena (arguably THE most intriguing character in the arc)'s ambitions and reasons behind them, exploring her crazy nen powers and the general intrigue a game like this brings to the table in and of itself like a slice of Akagi (or of course Yugioh), and just tons of fascinating, thrilling and even at times oddly adorable content throughout. I'm at a point at which I'd happily read ANYTHING Togashi cooks up; any amount of time spent with any combination of characters doing anything, I know it's going to be fulfilling in some way and almost definitely has some important reason for being explored.
I'm happy to see how Togashi includes this type of games. This is not dragon ball. Being the most powerful is not enough. Here strategies and not offensive skills are important, a passive condition could be used to defeat a powerful oponent if used in a right way. Borksen is already smart, trained and a Kurta clan member(just kidding) I do not think that she will be more dangerous than Morena. But she will definetly do something memorable.
@catalinarose3306 Plz edit typo. I know that may sound random but that typo of a missing space making a bracket seem fused to the word outside really urks some people like me. Random and trivial sounding for those who dont have 'it' but that's just like strobelights vs epileptics, if you get what i mean. Mentlahealth is funky like that. I hope you take the 1 second to edit, it would brighten my day for real
Am I the only one that keeps wondering if Borksen might be an unknown Kurta clan member? She has a lot of similarities with Kurapika both in appearance and characteristics... and she even is a specialist... This may be a bit too much on the nose to be true and I might be missing something that makes this idea impossible, but it would be a cool plot-twist considering her being related to Tserriednich.
@@Gumunista Yeah I guess, but maybe they just never activated because she herself isn't aware of the fact. Like I said, just an idea, but the similarities are really suspicious to me. Also thanks! :D
Kurapika is only a specialist when the eyes are activated. Also, its a ability that might be only his, others might just get stronger aura and/or change afinities to something else. I dont think its impossible to have other survivors but its certainly not pertinent to Borksen story.
I personally doubt borksin’s friend will get nen but I might be wrong as a HXH enjoyer since 1999 togashi seems to like including smart and impactful yet not nen effective characters in his arcs I can see the friend squad in that category rather than super powered nen users. Again I could be wrong tho
Well said to add to this borksin is shown to have above average intelligence without any real nen knowledge she was able to break down morena to a scary degree. I wouldn’t be surprised if one or two of her friends are also quite smart
Borksen got Morena to go beyond the rules when pressing her about changing her mind. To that point she kept to the rules "yes" or "no" when borksen pressed on this last question though Morena finally cracked and went beyond the Yes/No after which Borksen stopped questioning. This seems meaningful.
Pain packer is strong but using it on a ship is a terrible idea. It is indiscriminate destruction and this time phinks can’t just run away like last time…
Everyone on the boat will end up unalive. Except a small handful. Just like wvery trip to the dark continent. Only a few come back. Gin and beyond are guarantees, maybe hisoka based on his popularity.
I honestly don't see Ging coming back from the Dark Continent. It's not because I think he will die, but because I can't think of a reason for him to choose to return.
Not liking the disrespect to the already established nen users and especially the phantom troupe whose power level is above anyone not kurapika nor hisoka. the fact that you can level up nen just by killing is ridiculous on its on own. Togashi treating specialist like kishimoto with the uchihas.
I hate that the 'Chosen One Type' existing is basically confirmed, even IF what Morena meant was just Learning-Speed is unrestricted, basically meaning Specialists can/always-do 'lean towards ALL other Types'
It would be a funny ending to the arc, even if a bad one, imagine after all that, someone beats Feitan too much and he just blows up the whole ship and sinks everything
People overestimate feitans pain packer. Zazan's base isn't even 1/10th the size of the Black Whale. He didn't even destroy the base anyway😂. Faitans not destroying anything lol.
@@Micheal93k Yeah but its a ship, it doesn't need that much damage to sink a good hole on the bottom is more than enough, and that Pain Packer was very small, like Feitan said himself. He had a bronken arm and not much more than that, if Zazan was strong enough to put him in the brink of Death I don't know if it would have been so contained, and spider silk is stronger than any material we know, Togashi probably didn't account for that but if he did that explosion is much stronger than it seems.
@@Micheal93k Most importantly, I said it would be funny, not realistc or a good ending lol. It would be very shitty if Togashi ended such a complex arc with only that. "And the ship sunk and everyone died, the end. Now back to Gon"
We have not seen Feitan go all out! Swore it was about how angry/pain you cause him to be in. He admitted his last outfit was actually low heat. Crank it!
I simply love feedback to Nen and Nen-Users: I luv Feedback! To summarize and simplify to the Exteme, Imagine a kingly Entity, someone born strong, smart and rich and thus with no real 'Desire', no selectionpressure ever touched his Skin. Like Meruem but actually interested in Nen - though just cause its cool. So cause he likes the Pokemon Skittie, thinks himself a Born Leader and for more reasons, he creates a Nen-Beast looking like a certain Pokemon, but made out of pure gold-coloured Aura; its Tail acting like an Antenna that attracts and absorbs the Nen-Ability of every deceased Loyal-Servant who swore Loyalty, did a little Ritual with Him once (needs to be renewed every half a year) and has then died. Extreme Restrictions that he bares with a smile allow for Insanely Powerful Specialist Nen. Every Death transfers the Main-Ability, forcing the Corpse to activate Post-Mortem-Nen but if Post-Mortem-Nen happens by itself, then all the better: then all Hatsu get transfered AND its a bit more powerful when used by its new User, the Owner of the Golden Skittie. Whichever Hatsu is the Main-One gets Transfered normally and gets to be used by Percentages as if he is whatvever the Type of the original User was. Funny enough, most wouldnt realize this is a Risk in itself, as inhering one Ability is not as good as Another and there could even be a Kastro-Case - imagine inheriting a Conju+Manipu Power from an Enhancer :) The first Time "Gratitude Antenna" [ Attract What's Yours ] activates is actually Not thx to a Servants Death! See, a Politican-Family actualy conjured a House that is then used by someone who must be a Manipulator, to have anyone in it think more and more favorably of the Family. Worked well for a while, they just invited rich or powerful folks and changed them little by little. Using that on Him turned out bad for them. See, knowing they'd target always Non-Nen-Users, they made it a Risk that if their Manipulation ever fails, the User themselves gets Manipulated now - completly, that is. Utter Slavemindset for an entire day. And yeah, hes naturally immune against all Mindcontrol, its a trait that has nothing to do with Nen. Understanding the whole entire Situation made him smile and k-ll her with the Words "Ah, Nen-Technicalities! The Best Nen! The Best Technicalities!" Cause it was mindless 'Identifying as a Servant of the Almost-Victim' it didnt count as Loyalty, but regardless: He didnt get Multiple abilities, but hey, better than nothing, yeah? So yeah that's why he now has an Ability named in another Language than all his other Abilities are named. Whatever, the Name translates to 'Property Liability'. Not the Strongest Power ever, but as long as you are inside a Building u Officialy Own, u can activate the Power whenever and weakly manipulate their feelings and mood and such. Second Time was sadder and first-time had an actual Servant dying, so this time he didnt smile. Litlte girl died, her Specialist-Nen having been to make An Art-Museum appear in her Head; in this Mind-Space all around her when activating the Ability is copied but all Objects and Peopple have little Plates on them explaining in great detail what they are, even if she never knew this info... Say, can you help coming up with Hatsu-Names? All languages allowed! I guess 'Narrator of No Tale' sounds nice but i am unsure.
Borkson reminds me of the cute innocent girl in class, that you wouldnt expect to have many talents. I think Borkson and her friends will become legendary in this arc.
Reminder that going by the arm wrestling chart, Phinks is the only living member of the troupe that has more Raw Physical Strength then Hisoka, although that may have changed with post mortem nen.
1:40 i dont know if i would be willing to trust the other 20 nen users so my first thought would be fulfill enough kills to gain a power knowing im a specialist since well they told me, make my power one that leeches off others arua’s then leech a consented amount from all the members and leave off to tier 1 using my military rank to then infiltrate and try to assassinate a royal member like especially since she got confirmation that the base is made using both nen and real life area’s if she potentially eliminates a prince than they could have access to their room just adding it to the nen space piled into the area’s
There were parts in the middle of the Chimera Ant arc that left me wondering "what's the point of this?" or "why focus on this random insignificant detail?" just for it all to swing back into focus during the endgame with a big "ohhhhh..." ...Basically, I am trusting the process. 😤

"Pariston isn't thinking about winning, he isn't thinking about losing either, that's why he's so powerful". Ging Freecs, chapter 331. Morena was too focused on winning from the beginning, I dare say she's in Cheadle's position. Borksen has clearly set her sights on the far future and had discarded her interest for "winning", seeing more of an oppertunity in losing. She no longer cares to lose. And that makes her powerful. We may have vastly underestimated Borksen, bc she's displaying a lot of the genius that isn't unlike Pariston and Ging themselves. Considering the 4th prince she's under who is confirmed to be even more than Gon and Killua, it wouldn't be a surprise to me that he has a keen eye for detecting candidates who are indeed "usefull trash" to be under him. What with being an artist and appraising the value of others, not unlike Zepile, who accurately appraised Gon, despite lacking Gyo or nen....For crying out loud he has two specialists! Geez! This guys is fowel I'm sorry Theta😂
The 4th princeis not more talented than Gon or Killua Gon mastered Zetsu in one day. Killua reached a lv of control in his aura within half a year that took Biscuit 10 years to achieve The prince manifested a Hatsu easily due to being a specialist
Not really the engagement or point I was landing on but. He has a teacher that's actively sabatauging his progress, despite this he's learning the basics at break neck speed, and like the hatsu and 2nd nenbeast you partially mentioned, he's manifested them in pure ignorance. Gon and Killua had 2 proper teachers, one being the master of their initial teacher. Not to mention a lot of their progress rested on her hatsu, to rejuvenate their stamina. Heaven's arena a convenient facility for honing nen incrementally, and Greed island a rigorous but effective training facility provided by one the 5 best nen users in the world. With additional tuteledge from Kite. All the prince has to lean on is: the urn of the kakin, Theta his sabatouring teacher, and Kurapika's message making him aware of the concept of nen. All he was guided in was the water divination test and consistent state of Zetsu, which he had already cleared easily.
I don’t think it will happen but an interesting idea would be for Boksen to kill Tserriednich in his parallel future ability. This way she could farm 50 levels each time without actually killing a prince. Don’t think Tserriednich would agree with that though. 😂

I think borksen kills or plays in instrumental part in killing Tserriednich, her motives have been pretty clear that she wants to protect her ally’s and with Tserriednichwarming up to two faces women I feel this is the perfect opportunity especially with a past relationship for her to be an ally or his greatest challenge.
Hxh has a history of setting up potential “big bads” to be minute parts of the grand whole, you can even argue meruem was seemingly the most important character in the chimera ant arc but had the least impact as a whole
3/3 with that being said I think togashi is still waiting to unveil a big secret that will flip this arc on its head. The phantom troupe vs kurapika and hisoka will be instrumental but that happened in yorknew and isn’t novel I think he will catch us from left field when we see what beyond neteros plans are
@@mauricescott1655 I think we have had the first big reveal already with the info "Morena" told Borksen about the royals abuse and engagement in human/sex trafficking.
I've GOT it, by George!!! If Shiela grew up to be Pariston... then it only stands to reason that Pariston grew up to be BORKSON!!!!! Of course, how could we have missed this
I like the contrast between the Chimera Ant arc and this arc. The Chimera Ants were threats because of the pure quantity of aura whereas most threats in this arc are due to the complex abilities that they can develop.
Hope you tackle the Kaiser and by proxy Justice Bureau's connection to Morena and/or the possibilty of both this factions being manipulated by the King himself, Nasubi Hui Gou Rou! P.S. Why is the monarch of the Kakin "Empire" is not called the "Emperor"?
One of my favorite interactions between two characters is when they both want to kill each other, both know they want to kill each other, but are working together anyway because for the time being their goals align. It recurs quite often in HxH with Kurapika and Hisoka, the gang on Greed Island with Hisoka, Ging and Pariston for example, which makes me believe that it could happen with Borksen and Morena as well. A lot of times these interactions, especially where Hisoka is involved, take on a very intimate quality, sometimes even crossing into overt sexual tension; and the two of them have that going in spades with their lengthy kiss and the entire twisted love that Contagion works on. The goals of all members of Heil-ly are murder, they have to be. All of them feed into Morena's goal of murdering everyone. Which means that murdering Morena, herself, not only qualifies as a goal - it's an inevitable part of the larger one! So Borksen openly advertising that her goal is to kill Morena, but they can't kill her Borksen because they need her Specialist talent right now, could absolutely work.
They might abduct someone in advance and after the card game end they can just bring that person in and let Borksen witness the act right then and there. That would be no way out for anyone who chose yes.
If Borksen is so important for their goals, the obvious thing is to level her up to unlocking nen as quickly as possible. What they should have done is captured a weak nen user in advance and have them already tied up and ready to be killed, hand Borksen a knife and there we go 20 levels in your first minute of being part of the family.
I think togashi is also finding a way to efficiently and effectively power scale characters to a point where it would make sense that they could “ survive “ when we reach the dark continent
It's surprising none of the curse holders whether the have-nots or Beyond's children have been a major factor yet considering how potent they seem to be
About Hisoka i think that with pos mortem nen he might become some kind (or literally) specialist. With his new bungee gum able to do anything he desires. Just like specialists he might be able to master all nen affinities. And about borgsen i think that Togashi skipped something during negotiation game, because imo she made her decision too quickly. Also can't wait to see Chrollo stealing Kakin's national treasure
I don't care how strong level 100 is but if you can reach a level where you can threaten a spider by just killing 100 civilians, then it is a major screwup by Togashi
Is it though? Its Enhancement with dozens of years of Training by Morena and MASSIVE Restrictions behind thatt Also, hypescaling has always put the rather weak Phantom Troupe above the clouds, but they are One-Note and not that powerful, my dude. They are all far beneath Godspeed-Killua, he would slaughter all if Chrollo was absent. Uvo would have died to the Shadow-Beasts if THEY werent idi0ts and careless
I am still holding out that we may be getting 20 chapters.. I really really hope it's not just the 10. I mean I am just happy in general to have any but I mean the succession war started all the way back in 2014 and it still feels like so much needs to happen let alone if we are going to have a whole dark continent arc after. The chimera ant arc was 132 chapters over an 8 year period, with the succession war it technically started in 2012 but really in 2014 but even then we have gotten 70 chapters in 10 years.. So assuming its another 30-40 chapters at least at the current rate that would be another 5 years or so to finish or if it is closer to the chimera ant arc it could be closer to another 8-9.. Togashi has been my favorite mangaka since I was a kid with yu yu Hakusho and I am still a little sad with how its final arc went so I would much rather him take his time. But assuming that the current arc is like 40 more chapters and the dark continent is another 110-120 even if we got a new chapter every other week which is about the pace we got chapters for earlier arcs like york new city that would be another 6+ years if the manga ended there. If its closer to 200 if there is a bit of a closing arc wrapping up Gon's whole story thats like 8. But who knows I just really hope if it does go on hiatus its not another 2 year thing.
The idea of Tserreidnich potentially being Beyond's child and working with him alongside Pariston was already a terrifying hypothetical. But now Tserreidnich's childhood friend is becoming a specialist who can fast track her aura growth and then add the rest of their friends to the group who can also be fast tracked makes that hypocritical even more scary. The one thing that was making Tserreidnich seem beatable was his seeming lack of any major allies, but if he turns out to be Beyond's son and Borksen is able to start her own Contagion game then he will suddenly be surrounded by extraordinarily powerful allies on top of becoming one of the greatest individual threats weve ever seen.
Bork can gain so many levels if she kills Morena and her family It's tough to imagine her reaching max level and Tserriednich's side being more scary than it already is
Why don't people master the 4 basics to the extreme Like mastering zetsu and adding restrictions enhancing it to the point it works like Toji Fushiguros heavenly restriction
@aceclover758 something like , completely shutting down your aura nods in exchange for physical strength. During this period you would also not be able to use your hatsu
I would argue that allowing a member to kill other members for points could actually be a risk that boosts the effectiveness of Contagion since infighting or a civil war could occur which would distract from Morena’s plan.
Morena’s ability also seems a bit like Chimera Ant queen I feel. Another topic to think about is what happens after the whale reaches the dark continent? Yes there’s a big IF it makes it. But imagine the absolute units that could come from the contagion. As soon as someone kills something on the dark continent, it could potentially cause a HUGE scale in power… also may have thought of a way for Gon to get his Nen back.. Morena could kiss all up on him. Unfortunately that would lead to him having to kill things which is unlike him.
Weirdly I feel like they’d be a lot safer if they had Franklin with them, a brutally simple ability with very little in the way to counter. Personally I wouldn’t be surprised if the Heil-y (not wanting to lose members early) decided to feign weakness and lure Phinks and Feitan straight to Hisoka
I don't think morena would be aware she was looking for beyonds curse specifically. Just sensing the sinister aura from it and thinking it could help in her goals. Just because they had their aura nodes opened wouldn't mean they were aware of nen in general
Did.....did Togashi predict South Korea....cuz wtf at this timing
Or maybe it's the other way around, The President read HxH before sleep.
Wake up then decide to declare Martial Law.
So it's Togashi fault.
@RessG Lmao I mean he did cancel it this morning so maybe it was just a confirmation. Togashi be knowing things 😂
Next chapter gonna have everyone vote against Benjamin in parliament lol
the guy is afraid of morena ...
Togashi said Dont let this distract you from the fact that bungee gum has the properties of rubber and gum
Martial law has been enacted....good timing.

There are 0.5 chapters? Where?

We were ROBBED i Say ROBBED 😭😭
@@sapomen1352don't worry the *artists* will pick up the slack

4:00 Just because Kurapika is going to die... doesn't mean he wont be alive at the end of the series.
Woble called Kurapika "da da" and has a currently unknown powerful Nen beast being developed rapidly as mentioned Infants learn Nen instinctively.
Who is to say Kurapika can't come back if Woble's Nen beast is developed to revive her 'parents' if they are lost.
I like this idea!
I still am quite sure Woble does not have a Guardian Spirit Beast, and her nen is because she's Beyond's child. The language about the Seed Urn ceremony is very specific, and states that after the drop of blood is put into the top, the prince must put their hand into its mouth with a strong desire to be King of Kakin. This mindset is impossible for an infant to understand and have. Just like how the exact language of the Princes being children of legal wives, and not children of the King was plot relevant, this one must be too. Otherwise Togashi wouldn't have written it that way.
Oh shit
@@Yonkage-ik5qb That's a cool theory, but it contradicts the participation of pretty much all the younger princes. Momoze straight up says she doesn't have what it takes to rule, Kacho and Fugetsu explicitly didn't want to participate and I'm pretty sure that Maryam, while older than Wobble, is still in the "doesn't fully get what's happening" camp. I don't think any of them could be said to have "strong desire to be the ruler of Kakin" besides maybe Fugetsu for the sake of her sister
@@user-zz3sn8ky7z I mean, it's not exactly a theory that they have to desire the crown. It's straight up what the rules are. And a six-year old absolutely can conceptualize what that means.
There’s just no way Phinks or Feitan are getting killed by a bunch of nen amateurs. I don’t care how much aura they get from killing people, they literally have known nen for 10 minutes. You’re not beating an experienced nen user without any training.
I'm shocked Liam would call it "narratively efficient". We are talking two spiders who faced Chimera Ants head-on, one being a squadron leader that will eat the whole Hei-ily members for lunch including Morena. Have we quickly forgotten the scale of destruction these two can cause?
Liam disappoints me.
I agree it would cheapen the story if these novices were able to take out the Troupe just because they have an abundance of aura now, do the mafia members even know the fundamentals and basic and advanced forms of nen outside of hatsu?
yes, they can... have you guys forgotten that pure aura, can overwhelm even the best training. case in point is the chimera ants..especially the royal guards and meruem...even the best nen users couldn't overcome them..also, we have no reference on how powerful level 51 or 62 is
That's why you would be a terrible nen user. Ants LITERALLY did that and the Troupe would have been obliterated by the ants. These are ants 2.0
@@Jahshehs lmao your comparing regular humans to Chimera ants?? the mafia members aren’t even close to that level of power, outside of the ants becoming nen users they already had extremely high strength and durability, also the only ants the hunters struggled with were the royal guard and Mueruem, the other lower ranking ants were not an issue what so ever
Playing a card game just to get a kiss seems like a decent way to spend some time on a long boat trip.
I can't wait for the black whale 1 to reach Elbaf and meet the Strawhats
That would be a funny crossover that I don’t think is completely out of the question 😂
Honestly killing 100 randos seems so much easier than killing 10 bad nen user.
Can't wait for Hisoka Vs Chrollo round 2
Me neither
Who do you think will win?@@partofthetribe3277
You already know!!! 👊👊✊✊👏👏👌👌 Togashi set up a bookend for it too. 😁😁
You can AND U WILL
2030 it will happen.
The kurapika being the UN with all the death flags was absolutely savage and perfect
I think that anyone complaining about the card game, has lost the connection to the author's work. The flow of a story isn't supposed to only be climax, and if you complain at any setup chapter I honestly think story telling isn't for you.
@@Hgkd2ikr people got so spoiled. These are the same people complaining about jjk and one piece everytime their fav character isnt fighting on screen.
It's a different kind of anime. Almost opposite of dbz. People have covered this in detail so I'm not going to beat a dead horse.
Togashi is different. He makes genuinely compelling work and not just fighting slop. We should enjoy the journey.
Even tho the negotiations chapters were slower, I still really enjoyed them and have no complaints, I've been interested in Morena for a long time so its nice to get to see her more
I agree
A big thing I feel is getting looked over is that Dogman is likely to hit lv100 in the near future. With how crowded the area Chrollo was in it’s completely possible that he can take out 38 people in a few seconds if they actually come to blows.
Does dog man also have to kiss people to spread the contagion?
There Is no Need they Need to farm low lwvels up then the nene users tò Jump in atleast 3 vs 1
I think there's an outside chance Dogman targets Might because he smells a Nen user and then unknowingly kills Halkenburg to get a full 50 at once. Or maybe his nose lets him detect Prince's so he might even deduce that Halkenburg is in there and thinks he's relatively safe because everyone else thinks he's dead, thus making him an easy target for the one person who might be able to figure it out.
The levels have no scale yet, so the number doesn’t mean anything besides the added ability of making your family which takes time .
Like with levels what would chrollo be? Cause , chrollo is like the equivalent of 100 000 normal people. A unarmed human is a bag of meat to him
@@marlinfromfindingnemo8954 maybe, imagine he just runs around licking peoples faces😂
President of South Korea read the latest chapters and realized: ah martial law we have that as well
Did we just dismiss the idea Issack Netero messed around with a queen of Kakin and that's why Beyond was able to work his way up in politics so fast to be right next to Nasubi. I feel like any other outsider wouldn't be looked upon so fondly. And the scar on his face is much bigger but I can't stop noticing it while 2 scar patterns are extremely relevant in this arc
Final page is so good. Borksons “No” as it focuses on her Yes card. Is an example of togashi second speech that Morena explained 2 chapters ago.
This is off topic but always thought that Neon was killed by her father. He was going crazy last time we saw him and Neon was just mildly confused and concerned with her ability no longer working.
That relaxed behavior in contrast with her dad losing his sanity a few steps away made me think she probably asked for something really big that she previously thoughtlessly enjoyed and sent him over the edge.
Idk i always had this thought of him strangling her once Chrollo confirms he no longer has the ability.
Same. It's not hard to imagine, Togashi just left it open ended bc our minds will restlessly examine it. Neon is ignorant and unempathetic, ironically for reading something as complex as fortunes. She's terrible at reading people: Chrollo, Kurapika, her father etc. showing genuin mourning for their losses.
Except Light constructed this by constantly helicoptering her, it was purposely conveyed that Neon was annoying. She doesn't read the room, her tragegidy is that anyone and everyone including her father really tolerated her for her gifts or status. She's lost both those things and she's not aware of the ramifications. A litteral boiling frog that lived in ignorance and well die there. With Togashi leaving us with, "I'll leave it up to your imagination."
All we are sure of is that Light sucks and he's the true of evil of that arc. Religiously hiding behind his daughter and acting like a mafia boss. A literal nothing character. Weak minded and selfish to the core. The escalation to his depravity was apparent.
Another reason why Morena's kisses are so "bad" is probably because the only context she was kissed was as "meat". God knows what sort of "kissing" she experienced.

I woke up and clicked on a light-hearted HxH video...and got a lesson in the psychology of multi generational family abuse. Amazing as always.
I've been thinking about that possibility of Phinks and Feitan walking to their death to power up Borksen, and while it facilitates things, it would feel so damn cheap to have two of the most hyped members just die to nen newbies. They would have to walk into a lot of traps and conditions for it to happen, there is NO WAY they die in direct combat, it would be straight up poor writing.
I can see it happening, but I can't say I agree with that choice.
You are right, only with teamwork and traps they can defeat those two spiders, like Gon did to genthru despite being a lot weaker.
I laugh at people who expect HxH to be a shonen.
It is one. A lot of seinen are about cute girls doing cute things btw.

I think that Bork will forego Morena's desires about her ability, and create an ability incredibly similar to Morena's to empower her friends. She made a point of clarifying that Morena was a specialist.
Bro I REALLY do not mind how many chapters we spend on seemingly random, seemingly small moments like we have been lately. Spending time getting to know two interesting, deep, nuanced characters better, learning more about Morena (arguably THE most intriguing character in the arc)'s ambitions and reasons behind them, exploring her crazy nen powers and the general intrigue a game like this brings to the table in and of itself like a slice of Akagi (or of course Yugioh), and just tons of fascinating, thrilling and even at times oddly adorable content throughout. I'm at a point at which I'd happily read ANYTHING Togashi cooks up; any amount of time spent with any combination of characters doing anything, I know it's going to be fulfilling in some way and almost definitely has some important reason for being explored.
I'm happy to see how Togashi includes this type of games. This is not dragon ball. Being the most powerful is not enough. Here strategies and not offensive skills are important, a passive condition could be used to defeat a powerful oponent if used in a right way.
Borksen is already smart, trained and a Kurta clan member(just kidding) I do not think that she will be more dangerous than Morena. But she will definetly do something memorable.
Which is why Gon in this arc would lose badly
@catalinarose3306 Plz edit typo. I know that may sound random but that typo of a missing space making a bracket seem fused to the word outside really urks some people like me. Random and trivial sounding for those who dont have 'it' but that's just like strobelights vs epileptics, if you get what i mean. Mentlahealth is funky like that. I hope you take the 1 second to edit, it would brighten my day for real
The melodussy is still paying dividends, well done Liam
Am I the only one that keeps wondering if Borksen might be an unknown Kurta clan member? She has a lot of similarities with Kurapika both in appearance and characteristics... and she even is a specialist... This may be a bit too much on the nose to be true and I might be missing something that makes this idea impossible, but it would be a cool plot-twist considering her being related to Tserriednich.
Love your content dude, but the Kurta were fairly famous and someone would noticed if Borksen eyes turned scarlet
@@Gumunista Yeah I guess, but maybe they just never activated because she herself isn't aware of the fact. Like I said, just an idea, but the similarities are really suspicious to me. Also thanks! :D
Kurapika is only a specialist when the eyes are activated. Also, its a ability that might be only his, others might just get stronger aura and/or change afinities to something else.
I dont think its impossible to have other survivors but its certainly not pertinent to Borksen story.
My fellow Issac enjoyer is also a HxH fan😁
Both blond and specialist are not a lot of smiliarities
7:15 oh man you just reminded me we've got the whole issue of Ging, Pariston, Beyond and the evil zodiacs
I personally doubt borksin’s friend will get nen but I might be wrong as a HXH enjoyer since 1999 togashi seems to like including smart and impactful yet not nen effective characters in his arcs I can see the friend squad in that category rather than super powered nen users. Again I could be wrong tho
Well said to add to this borksin is shown to have above average intelligence without any real nen knowledge she was able to break down morena to a scary degree. I wouldn’t be surprised if one or two of her friends are also quite smart
Borksen got Morena to go beyond the rules when pressing her about changing her mind. To that point she kept to the rules "yes" or "no" when borksen pressed on this last question though Morena finally cracked and went beyond the Yes/No after which Borksen stopped questioning. This seems meaningful.
We here for the melodussy
Ain’t no ussy like a melodussy
I hope you mean we’re NOT here
Pain packer is strong but using it on a ship is a terrible idea. It is indiscriminate destruction and this time phinks can’t just run away like last time…
But there are other types. I wonder what they're like
Phinks said that it can take on different forms, so maybe not.
@@shadowsniper708 oh right I better re read those chapters thanks
Everyone on the boat will end up unalive. Except a small handful. Just like wvery trip to the dark continent. Only a few come back. Gin and beyond are guarantees, maybe hisoka based on his popularity.
I honestly don't see Ging coming back from the Dark Continent. It's not because I think he will die, but because I can't think of a reason for him to choose to return.
Doubt Beyond is coming back.
Not liking the disrespect to the already established nen users and especially the phantom troupe whose power level is above anyone not kurapika nor hisoka. the fact that you can level up nen just by killing is ridiculous on its on own. Togashi treating specialist like kishimoto with the uchihas.
I hate that the 'Chosen One Type' existing is basically confirmed,
even IF what Morena meant was just Learning-Speed is unrestricted,
basically meaning Specialists can/always-do 'lean towards ALL other Types'
2:35 what? Go reread Uvogin vs the shadow beasts he literally would have lost if Rabid Dog had deadly poison instead of just paralyzing poison.
Uvo was also dumb as rocks, and as an Enhancer had the simplest most predictable nen abilities.
Yep, the Troupe is mostly overhyped, they are pretty One-Note and not that super-strong
It would be a funny ending to the arc, even if a bad one, imagine after all that, someone beats Feitan too much and he just blows up the whole ship and sinks everything
People overestimate feitans pain packer. Zazan's base isn't even 1/10th the size of the Black Whale. He didn't even destroy the base anyway😂. Faitans not destroying anything lol.
@@Micheal93k Yeah but its a ship, it doesn't need that much damage to sink a good hole on the bottom is more than enough, and that Pain Packer was very small, like Feitan said himself.
He had a bronken arm and not much more than that, if Zazan was strong enough to put him in the brink of Death I don't know if it would have been so contained, and spider silk is stronger than any material we know, Togashi probably didn't account for that but if he did that explosion is much stronger than it seems.
@@Micheal93k Most importantly, I said it would be funny, not realistc or a good ending lol. It would be very shitty if Togashi ended such a complex arc with only that. "And the ship sunk and everyone died, the end. Now back to Gon"
Maybe the post-mortem nen would be enough, or be so concentrated that it would be like a piping hot led ball falling through several blocks of ice.
We have not seen Feitan go all out! Swore it was about how angry/pain you cause him to be in. He admitted his last outfit was actually low heat. Crank it!
I simply love your videos.. your takes add so much depth to Togashi's work. Keep it up!
I simply love feedback to Nen and Nen-Users:

To summarize and simplify to the Exteme,
Imagine a kingly Entity, someone born strong, smart and rich and thus with no real 'Desire', no selectionpressure ever touched his Skin. Like Meruem but actually interested in Nen - though just cause its cool.
So cause he likes the Pokemon Skittie, thinks himself a Born Leader and for more reasons,
he creates a Nen-Beast looking like a certain Pokemon, but made out of pure gold-coloured Aura; its Tail acting like an Antenna that attracts and absorbs the Nen-Ability of every deceased Loyal-Servant who swore Loyalty, did a little Ritual with Him once (needs to be renewed every half a year) and has then died.
Extreme Restrictions that he bares with a smile allow for Insanely Powerful Specialist Nen.
Every Death transfers the Main-Ability, forcing the Corpse to activate Post-Mortem-Nen but if Post-Mortem-Nen happens by itself, then all the better: then all Hatsu get transfered AND its a bit more powerful when used by its new User, the Owner of the Golden Skittie.
Whichever Hatsu is the Main-One gets Transfered normally and gets to be used by Percentages as if he is whatvever the Type of the original User was. Funny enough, most wouldnt realize this is a Risk in itself, as inhering one Ability is not as good as Another and there could even be a Kastro-Case - imagine inheriting a Conju+Manipu Power from an Enhancer :)
The first Time "Gratitude Antenna"
[ Attract What's Yours ] activates is actually Not thx to a Servants Death!
See, a Politican-Family actualy conjured a House that is then used by someone who must be a Manipulator,
to have anyone in it think more and more favorably of the Family. Worked well for a while, they just invited rich or powerful folks and changed them little by little.
Using that on Him turned out bad for them.
See, knowing they'd target always Non-Nen-Users, they made it a Risk that if their Manipulation ever fails, the User themselves gets Manipulated now - completly, that is. Utter Slavemindset for an entire day.
And yeah, hes naturally immune against all Mindcontrol, its a trait that has nothing to do with Nen.
Understanding the whole entire Situation made him smile and k-ll her with the Words "Ah, Nen-Technicalities! The Best Nen! The Best Technicalities!"
Cause it was mindless 'Identifying as a Servant of the Almost-Victim' it didnt count as Loyalty, but regardless: He didnt get Multiple abilities, but hey, better than nothing, yeah?
So yeah that's why he now has an Ability named in another Language than all his other Abilities are named. Whatever, the Name translates to 'Property Liability'. Not the Strongest Power ever, but as long as you are inside a Building u Officialy Own, u can activate the Power whenever and weakly manipulate their feelings and mood and such.
Second Time was sadder and first-time had an actual Servant dying, so this time he didnt smile. Litlte girl died, her Specialist-Nen having been to make An Art-Museum appear in her Head; in this Mind-Space all around her when activating the Ability is copied but all Objects and Peopple have little Plates on them explaining in great detail what they are, even if she never knew this info...
Say, can you help coming up with Hatsu-Names? All languages allowed!
I guess 'Narrator of No Tale' sounds nice but i am unsure.
Borkson reminds me of the cute innocent girl in class, that you wouldnt expect to have many talents. I think Borkson and her friends will become legendary in this arc.
Then it turns out she's smashing the entire basketball team.😂 it's the quiet ones you look out for
Reminder that going by the arm wrestling chart, Phinks is the only living member of the troupe that has more Raw Physical Strength then Hisoka, although that may have changed with post mortem nen.
6:02 I'm in the video! 😂😎
Yes, immortalized on viral media. ^^
Congrats 🎉
Nice
Reminds me of how hisoka power scaled zodiacs and illumi, may be the power system of morena is similar like that
I love the artist of this channel 😂
1:40 i dont know if i would be willing to trust the other 20 nen users so my first thought would be fulfill enough kills to gain a power knowing im a specialist since well they told me, make my power one that leeches off others arua’s then leech a consented amount from all the members and leave off to tier 1 using my military rank to then infiltrate and try to assassinate a royal member like especially since she got confirmation that the base is made using both nen and real life area’s if she potentially eliminates a prince than they could have access to their room just adding it to the nen space piled into the area’s
There were parts in the middle of the Chimera Ant arc that left me wondering "what's the point of this?" or "why focus on this random insignificant detail?" just for it all to swing back into focus during the endgame with a big "ohhhhh..." ...Basically, I am trusting the process. 😤
The PT are one of the most iconic things about HxH, no way they get taken out by newcomers like Borksen or Heil-y.
Agreed. It would be poor writing
I hope everything gets set up only for Feitan to Cruel Sun the shit out of their hideout.

The true Hunter x Hunter
"Pariston isn't thinking about winning, he isn't thinking about losing either, that's why he's so powerful". Ging Freecs, chapter 331.
Morena was too focused on winning from the beginning, I dare say she's in Cheadle's position. Borksen has clearly set her sights on the far future and had discarded her interest for "winning", seeing more of an oppertunity in losing. She no longer cares to lose. And that makes her powerful.
We may have vastly underestimated Borksen, bc she's displaying a lot of the genius that isn't unlike Pariston and Ging themselves.
Considering the 4th prince she's under who is confirmed to be even more than Gon and Killua, it wouldn't be a surprise to me that he has a keen eye for detecting candidates who are indeed "usefull trash" to be under him. What with being an artist and appraising the value of others, not unlike Zepile, who accurately appraised Gon, despite lacking Gyo or nen....For crying out loud he has two specialists! Geez! This guys is fowel I'm sorry Theta😂
The 4th princeis not more talented than Gon or Killua
Gon mastered Zetsu in one day. Killua reached a lv of control in his aura within half a year that took Biscuit 10 years to achieve
The prince manifested a Hatsu easily due to being a specialist
Not really the engagement or point I was landing on but. He has a teacher that's actively sabatauging his progress, despite this he's learning the basics at break neck speed, and like the hatsu and 2nd nenbeast you partially mentioned, he's manifested them in pure ignorance.
Gon and Killua had 2 proper teachers, one being the master of their initial teacher. Not to mention a lot of their progress rested on her hatsu, to rejuvenate their stamina. Heaven's arena a convenient facility for honing nen incrementally, and Greed island a rigorous but effective training facility provided by one the 5 best nen users in the world. With additional tuteledge from Kite.
All the prince has to lean on is: the urn of the kakin, Theta his sabatouring teacher, and Kurapika's message making him aware of the concept of nen. All he was guided in was the water divination test and consistent state of Zetsu, which he had already cleared easily.
I don’t think it will happen but an interesting idea would be for Boksen to kill Tserriednich in his parallel future ability. This way she could farm 50 levels each time without actually killing a prince. Don’t think Tserriednich would agree with that though. 😂

Say, can you help coming up with Hatsu-Names? All languages allowed!
I guess 'Narrator of No Tale' sounds nice but i am unsure.

Martial Law was indeed declared that I checked for any suspicious looking card games being played.
Borksen used texture surprise 👀
I think borksen kills or plays in instrumental part in killing Tserriednich, her motives have been pretty clear that she wants to protect her ally’s and with Tserriednichwarming up to two faces women I feel this is the perfect opportunity especially with a past relationship for her to be an ally or his greatest challenge.
Hxh has a history of setting up potential “big bads” to be minute parts of the grand whole, you can even argue meruem was seemingly the most important character in the chimera ant arc but had the least impact as a whole
3/3 with that being said I think togashi is still waiting to unveil a big secret that will flip this arc on its head. The phantom troupe vs kurapika and hisoka will be instrumental but that happened in yorknew and isn’t novel I think he will catch us from left field when we see what beyond neteros plans are
@@mauricescott1655 I think we have had the first big reveal already with the info "Morena" told Borksen about the royals abuse and engagement in human/sex trafficking.
I've GOT it, by George!!! If Shiela grew up to be Pariston... then it only stands to reason that Pariston grew up to be BORKSON!!!!! Of course, how could we have missed this
I love the idea of Borksen becoming a member 0 and then we have more scenes of Borksen having to kiss people 😂
Martial law was declared after Benjamin heard "melodussy"
Feitan Definitely a top 0.01% listener of MCR
We need Hisoka vs Chrollo again
Even better: Hisoka and Chrollo get ready to square off and then someone unexpected (Tseradnick?) Kills one of them. The other would feel so cheated.
The only nen user more feared than Stephanie Netero is Liams stupid cute dog
I like the contrast between the Chimera Ant arc and this arc. The Chimera Ants were threats because of the pure quantity of aura whereas most threats in this arc are due to the complex abilities that they can develop.
I can’t wait to see the troupe take them apart like rare meat!
Hope you tackle the Kaiser and by proxy Justice Bureau's connection to Morena and/or the possibilty of both this factions being manipulated by the King himself, Nasubi Hui Gou Rou!
P.S. Why is the monarch of the Kakin "Empire" is not called the "Emperor"?
No one is safe in this arc
One of my favorite interactions between two characters is when they both want to kill each other, both know they want to kill each other, but are working together anyway because for the time being their goals align. It recurs quite often in HxH with Kurapika and Hisoka, the gang on Greed Island with Hisoka, Ging and Pariston for example, which makes me believe that it could happen with Borksen and Morena as well. A lot of times these interactions, especially where Hisoka is involved, take on a very intimate quality, sometimes even crossing into overt sexual tension; and the two of them have that going in spades with their lengthy kiss and the entire twisted love that Contagion works on.
The goals of all members of Heil-ly are murder, they have to be. All of them feed into Morena's goal of murdering everyone. Which means that murdering Morena, herself, not only qualifies as a goal - it's an inevitable part of the larger one! So Borksen openly advertising that her goal is to kill Morena, but they can't kill her Borksen because they need her Specialist talent right now, could absolutely work.
If Feitan dies, WE RIOT!
They might abduct someone in advance and after the card game end they can just bring that person in and let Borksen witness the act right then and there. That would be no way out for anyone who chose yes.
If Borksen is so important for their goals, the obvious thing is to level her up to unlocking nen as quickly as possible. What they should have done is captured a weak nen user in advance and have them already tied up and ready to be killed, hand Borksen a knife and there we go 20 levels in your first minute of being part of the family.
I think togashi is also finding a way to efficiently and effectively power scale characters to a point where it would make sense that they could “ survive “ when we reach the dark continent
It's surprising none of the curse holders whether the have-nots or Beyond's children have been a major factor yet considering how potent they seem to be
I like that image you show @4:33 makes me think Borksen's special ability will be to assemble her friends to summon Captain Planet or Vultron.
About Hisoka i think that with pos mortem nen he might become some kind (or literally) specialist. With his new bungee gum able to do anything he desires. Just like specialists he might be able to master all nen affinities. And about borgsen i think that Togashi skipped something during negotiation game, because imo she made her decision too quickly. Also can't wait to see Chrollo stealing Kakin's national treasure
I feel like the Heil-ly could have 20 people ready to kill to get their saught after specialist to level 20 as quickly as possible.
Borkson looks like she's going to serve up some fools on the dance floor with this thumbnail. All she's missing is a hat
I'm wondering if the kiss part of contagion strenghtens the ability because morena actually hates doing it because of her past.
No one I trust more than Feitan and Phinks
I don't care how strong level 100 is but if you can reach a level where you can threaten a spider by just killing 100 civilians, then it is a major screwup by Togashi
Is it though? Its Enhancement with dozens of years of Training by Morena and MASSIVE Restrictions behind thatt
Also, hypescaling has always put the rather weak Phantom Troupe above the clouds, but they are One-Note and not that powerful, my dude. They are all far beneath Godspeed-Killua,
he would slaughter all if Chrollo was absent.
Uvo would have died to the Shadow-Beasts if THEY werent idi0ts and careless
I am still holding out that we may be getting 20 chapters.. I really really hope it's not just the 10. I mean I am just happy in general to have any but I mean the succession war started all the way back in 2014 and it still feels like so much needs to happen let alone if we are going to have a whole dark continent arc after. The chimera ant arc was 132 chapters over an 8 year period, with the succession war it technically started in 2012 but really in 2014 but even then we have gotten 70 chapters in 10 years.. So assuming its another 30-40 chapters at least at the current rate that would be another 5 years or so to finish or if it is closer to the chimera ant arc it could be closer to another 8-9.. Togashi has been my favorite mangaka since I was a kid with yu yu Hakusho and I am still a little sad with how its final arc went so I would much rather him take his time. But assuming that the current arc is like 40 more chapters and the dark continent is another 110-120 even if we got a new chapter every other week which is about the pace we got chapters for earlier arcs like york new city that would be another 6+ years if the manga ended there. If its closer to 200 if there is a bit of a closing arc wrapping up Gon's whole story thats like 8. But who knows I just really hope if it does go on hiatus its not another 2 year thing.
Borksin the melodussy
Is Nobody Going To Talk About Torapika Being Im Adult Gon Pose I The Thumbnail And The Beginning
The idea of Tserreidnich potentially being Beyond's child and working with him alongside Pariston was already a terrifying hypothetical.
But now Tserreidnich's childhood friend is becoming a specialist who can fast track her aura growth and then add the rest of their friends to the group who can also be fast tracked makes that hypocritical even more scary. The one thing that was making Tserreidnich seem beatable was his seeming lack of any major allies, but if he turns out to be Beyond's son and Borksen is able to start her own Contagion game then he will suddenly be surrounded by extraordinarily powerful allies on top of becoming one of the greatest individual threats weve ever seen.
Borked hitting the adult gon pose is sick 😂
The Phantom troup will be fine.
If push come to shove, its gonna be a bloodbath and the troup won't be on the losing end.
Bork can gain so many levels if she kills Morena and her family
It's tough to imagine her reaching max level and Tserriednich's side being more scary than it already is
knowing the abuse that morena suffered, that "kiss" could be something so depraved that we could not imagine, and that would be "normal" for her.
Why don't people master the 4 basics to the extreme
Like mastering zetsu and adding restrictions enhancing it to the point it works like Toji Fushiguros heavenly restriction
People do that.
Enhancers put restrictions or conditions using Ko like Uvo, Phinx and Gon
The 4th prince literally has a Hatsu that depends on Zetsu
Comvat focused enhancers do exacrly that
@aceclover758 something like , completely shutting down your aura nods in exchange for physical strength. During this period you would also not be able to use your hatsu
Because it's generally not possible. You can't use nen while in Zetsu. The 4th prince is an exception because of his beast.
@Micheal93k you won't be using nen, but gaining physical strength in exchange for not using nen
I loved these chapters and really glad we saw the whole thing. I’m now fully interested in the Heily family.
would be super PoG GOATED respect if South Korea President was a Super HxH fan! and thru the whole country in Chaos for lolz
My boy Fietan better not die
I would argue that allowing a member to kill other members for points could actually be a risk that boosts the effectiveness of Contagion since infighting or a civil war could occur which would distract from Morena’s plan.
Morena’s ability also seems a bit like Chimera Ant queen I feel.
Another topic to think about is what happens after the whale reaches the dark continent? Yes there’s a big IF it makes it. But imagine the absolute units that could come from the contagion. As soon as someone kills something on the dark continent, it could potentially cause a HUGE scale in power… also may have thought of a way for Gon to get his Nen back.. Morena could kiss all up on him. Unfortunately that would lead to him having to kill things which is unlike him.
I’d like to imagine the phantom troupe beating the mafia and showing how badass they are only to be killed off by Hisoka
Phantom Troupe needs to worry about the dude who wants their autographs.
Togashi is entering his Gege era 😂
10:12 yea I don’t think it’s Stephenie but let’s stick to the S and go with SUPER beyond Netero. Yeah with a name like that it has to be true.
Still will never forgive you LIAM for MELODUSSY 😫😭🤢😠
What is melodussy?
Now there is the slimest option of melodussy to get a nen std too.
Melodussstdy...

@Silas-k6i Bro doesn't know ...💀💀
Never forget. Never forgive
If feitan dies we riot. Phobos we don’t care much unless there is more to his wind up nen use
Weirdly I feel like they’d be a lot safer if they had Franklin with them, a brutally simple ability with very little in the way to counter. Personally I wouldn’t be surprised if the Heil-y (not wanting to lose members early) decided to feign weakness and lure Phinks and Feitan straight to Hisoka
I don't think morena would be aware she was looking for beyonds curse specifically. Just sensing the sinister aura from it and thinking it could help in her goals. Just because they had their aura nodes opened wouldn't mean they were aware of nen in general
Keep it up. I love your content. You keep my love alive thank you
