completely forgot about this blog until today Sorry guys 😭😭😭
don't know if i will come back but I finally cracked and looked on tumblr for this new fixation which has a smaller fanbase... I get very anxious with some forms of social media Like tumblr (hence why I didn't really follow anyone else and just posted my own stuff), but the interest is bad enough...and now im not really fearful anymore.
looking back on here looks like a time capsule ngl. Deleted many but a few of my very old posts so I can rest easy now...
I STILL LOVE SHALNARK AND HXH As always.. Haven't been drawing him as much as of late but I still have some sketches and stuff & looking at my posts made me rlly miss him... I say as I have like 3 keychains of him on my backpack always watching me.
Also just kidna wanted to post to see if anybody would see it. Looking at some people's reblogs & comments I saw a few people who would consistently like my art and i felt BAD FOR JUST DROPPING THE ACCOUNT LMAO. Big problem with forgeting here..
wip of stmh im working on Why am i putting shading on a freakign chibi drawing usually theyre dumb and idiotic :sob:
I NEED STRENGTH TO FINISHTHIS BRO (not rlly i just like forget then need a lot of motivation to continue..havent touched this in days btw i'll finish it trust)
Making it based off of a song of an artist i really like and believe shalnark would like too NOT because im delusional ... but bc its kind of obscure techno funky stuff and sounds AWESOME. Will namedrop if i ever finish it heh
I like giving characters at least 1 artist that i associate them with and liek. I usually draw it and i actually have 2 of these rn but im failing. Sorry paku and shal . Im fueled by showing my musical headcanons eventually though
this is what im talking abt when i mean dumb little drawings I think i would go to hell if i rendered this
youuu guyss dont go to hell i guess!! XP hav a good weekend (its monday)
I think this would happen if they got drunk (if uvo could get drunk in the first place bro has a crazy tolerance proably)
theyr such stupid idiots.... and in my interpretation i like them more as dumb unlikely best friends. Shalnark is smart but he definitely has some stupidity and spares it for his friends especially uvo and Uvo is just Uvo so he big bang impack
i edited this ss of me and my friend this is literally jus that 1 scene (guess who is me and who is my friend)
HES COOKED!!!!!
anyways happy birthday to whoevers birthdy it is today.. Hopefully 1 of you
THIS ONE i made recently i think i meant to put it in my last post but i forgot cuz it was in a different folder
chrollos design as a teen is SO BORINGG I usually give him rosary beads as you can see here and an earring in his right ear bc that meant youre gay in the 80s an i think its really funny (he did it without knowing about it)
I also have drawn the other teen torup but i gotta draw them again bc the one i did im not PROUD OF !! and i have lore in my head..
Ireally just draw shalnark and chrollo sorry gang I'LL GET TO IT I SWEAR
I like finding stuff I drew from the school year after it ends and some of them are wall worthy including these.I just think bro looks wonderfully stupid ..
I LOVE DRAWING THE HAIR BRO if you couldn't tell
anyways bro Please don't die good luck (iam in america ..
THIS IS SO ANCIENT BRO but uhh I did a 1999 frame redraw as shalnark when he was a littler guy I have such a specific design for him for some reason even though he only appeared in that 1 panel
Insane to me being covered by a speech bubble created controversy for years ... Never change Shalnark or Togashi
such an idiot I love the last drawing so much..... AND BRO THIS DESIGN IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE RIPOFF KURTA THT THE PHANTOM ROUGE PROMOTIONAL ART GAVE USS WHAT WS THATTTT TT beat my COMPUTER /j
In my head ive drawn teen shal like 100 times but i cant freakign find the drawings Maybe im confusing it because I did make a pmv one time (the thing that GET OUT comes from) abt shalnark and chrollo but wtv Im a big fan :heart:
HES SO SYNTHPOP (in his prime depeche mode and erasure era) and nothing can change my mind that shalnark went through the synthpop -> industrial -> eventually techno pipeline
Anyways dont touch white phosphorous guys Im outtie Peace
also rip ginger shalnark i guess 1999-2004 whenver greed island arc ended his hair got so freaking orange then Thank you 2004 animators
the thing is i think togashi intended for him to be blond in the first place?? Based off the colors for volume 12... 1999 was just ginger beaming everyone plug. Still love gigner shalnark makes him more soulless ..soryr...
wasnt sure if i wanted to put a wip for smth im actually working on yet but the hamster at the bottom won me over as ALWAYS.
The second one was on a shared magma (i put the ones i did together and kept the stupd little doodles another person did that was like. litle animals based off the drawings because i love them. I should do another hxh art jam because i always get like at least 2 people joining) and ngl the killua drawing might be my favorite on there but shh ...
these were also a while ago (september 2024), I can see how my art styles changed a weenie bit
THIS WAS WHEN I MADE A WHITEBOARD PRACTICING FOR MY BIO FINAL and the draw break was deserved because I sat down and drew 4 freaking units of content on that whiboard I love bio but liek .. hmgg.. waiting for results in JULY (hoping for 4 or 5 angel emoji)
ignore marione dw abt it i had to show that there was hatsune miku in hxh
ALSO LMAO I Was drawing with somebody else on this board and they kept putting cat ears so like. Do with that what you will
holy crap eye shine alert....
also if you notice my background isn't white a lot of the time, that's because I have a screen darkener because I don't like killing my eyes. I should probably take it off but whatever
I need to stop drawing on magma and like whiteboard and actually lock in but the temptation is too strong
im whiteboarding it... im just gonna post like 2 shalnark drawings a day until i run out if I do (i have more like on paper but i am i do not want to take pictoors)(also i hav yet to post him with a friend how lonely!)
Also another thing, I think I barely draw shalnark ever with eye shines or anything Like yes i understand his pupils are bigger than this and he does have the light but I default to this always I just really want him to look dead One of these days i'll put them back
blood beneath the CUT OFF i suppose!!!!!!
I need to put more morse code in art just because I know all the letters (im fake though couldn't listen to anything but SOS for my life sighh)
u guys blew the 8 likes out of the water thank you so much :broken_heart: Have a fantabulous WEEK
okay rebrandng time (not really i just never showed how big i was a fan of shalnark for literally 0 reaosn??. I DONT KNOW WHY??? HES BEEN MY TOP FAVORITE AS WELL FOR LIKE 2 YEARS? ??)
Remembered I had this account again and I just deleted some of my posts, not all of them cause some of them are still good as well as a lot of people liked them so I figured it would be a waste :(
But it was also a mess ..... ANYWAYS
I made THIS one actually based off the Static music video the one by flavor folley Because while it's probably mainly about attachment issues I have so many thinks about Shalnarks mindset and in my opinion the themes of convincing himself and the rest of the founding troupe that "This is how it should be!" are so HIM plus i just liked the song..
I have so much..morethan this... IF THIS POST REACHES 8 LIKES I'LL SHARE MORE!!!
im back from dying but im still giuliano fan account guys i swear im just going to put some drawings before i fade away into the abyss once again
song: bizarre love triangle by new order
(cut off line after this cause there is a lot)
laughs and puts my headcanon here
just wanna pause here to talk abt how like
I doubt izugiuli will ever be real in hxh (sadly for me) like cause theyre too background character and it wouldnt even matter and togashi may not even be thinking about gay people here rn and idek how he would write it in the FIRST PLACE!!!
but i just want to appreciate how izunavi just seems genuinely worried for giuliano I CANT WAIT TO SEE THEM AGAIN i wonder what will happen speaking of current plot
he's always like that
(giuliano death in chapter 420 canon btw)
(halloween was yesterday - ghouliano and izombnavi :3)
ok bro...
my time has come... i hope u continue to have a good day or if you haven't that it gets better
WHY DID EVERYBODY FLOCK TO MY CHAPTER 395 REVIEW FOUNDING PART ONE OK??????
Anyways yeah I didnt do reviews for the past couple of weeks because Things happened and I got busy and it got me out of my groove so.
I have been reading of course because who am I .
I’ll do an overview of the rest of the flashbacks because those Messed Me Up actually and I have art and things to say about it.
Spoilers, obviously . (Warning for Child Abduction and death)
Chapter 396: Founding part 2
Sadly I dont have viz screenshots because of it only being the recent 3 lol so I’ll be using an unofficial translation
There he is again with some weird Popcorn Cauliflower lookin things and ooh nooo
Hi Uvogin!
Also hi Phinks with the walnut hair. At this point I’ve adjusted to how wonky it looks though but
SARASA *50 crying emojis*
I actually love Sarasa a lot. She’s adorable and confident and fearless... I really hope nothing BAD HAPPENS TO THIS CHARACTER. auughgggggg
I also really like Sheila. Even though they didn’t end up being actual phantom troupe members Sarasa and Sheila matter to me and I really want to know what Togashi has in mind by bringing her back into the plot. But aside from that we also get another moment of exposition for Pakunoda and Chrollos relationship. Im Not Crying Youare.
I love to think that while a lot of other people call him ‘Little bro’, Pakunoda is the closest to being his actual “big sister”
Power cleaners moment. I actually slipped up and call them Power Rangers sometimes or like for example “Ranger red” instead of Clean up red. Whats funny is that I didn’t even watch power rangers as a kid this is just how it is
Look at all those sillies
I really really want to know what this sounded like because Im not gonna say that it’s really bad just because they’re kids, but I think it would be very funny if they were sugar coating it not even on purpose because of how young and silly they are.
Chrollo is actually 11 you learn in 397 so I’m guessing that would mean Paku is 10, Sarasa is like 8-9 or something since she’s the youngest, and Sheila is somewhere inbetween them all.
I love how out of context he sounds like a victorian child whos about to make an important announcement.
“Father, may I have the mic?” I never thought I would hear those words but knowing that it comes from baby Chrollo makes it all make sense.
Also look theres Nobunaga!! Wow!! He’s finally in his own flashback!
I like the composition of this panel because This chapter is supposed to be a highlight on Uvos progression and his relationship with Chrollo and the fact that Chrollo is straight ahead of him really drives that home.
IM CRYING THIS PANEL
To be honest you gotta love this because you really just see how sincere he is in just wanting to make all the other kids happy here, and they are ecstatic
With Chrollo doing all the same lines though just imagine theres this kid and he just has crazy vocal range for no reason and hes talking to himself in 7 different voices
omfg is he Jerma985. .
.....
..i mean i did make this one thing
Anyways
HOLY CRAP JEDSURS
I bet he put his entire freakin heart into that line like no holding back
I love how everybodys like stunned and then theres just Nobu who is there
HELLO??????????? JFC
ALSO IS THIS A SAIKI K REFERENCE BECAUSE I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF TOGASHI JUST SLIPPED THAT IN THERE... (In some volume extras I think of vol 35 he put references in random panels and replaced the text and there was a saiki k reference in one. Fun fact)
Scrungly Sarasa and Sheila only ever
I also really like the composition of these panels.. Its also very centric on Uvo and Chrollo which I appreciate. Also I can see it being animated a lot for no reason like its so easy to imagine with this format.
When the Sarasa are Scurngly and adorble
Im just gonna put this whole page here and then talk abt it I love it so so so so so omuch and tears are definitely not in my eyes right now because of it.
So first of all, I read this translation first, and I think the lines they put here are better than what they put in the VIZ one. I don’t remember what they were, but the top panels lines here are just so raw and “That was me dubbing you!” Flows well. Sometimes unofficial translations can be wonky, but they did great on this page.
I love Love Love the way this page was drawn too. The way that Uvo and Chrollo just look shocked and are shown side by side is great, and I love the focus and detail on Sarasa and also even though it’s a still picture, her hair has so much motion and i i i i
Everybody’s reactions are nice too. I’m just thinking. No wonder Togashi had to take all that time off especially for these chapters. Drawing this many people is not easy at all...
IM M MLITERALLY CRYIGN HH hh G HHhhhhh UE h fhf hh n SNIFF
I like Uvo and Machi’s dynamic lol. They seemed to already be friends which is just really funny since she’s just this tiny little child and then Uvo is like. Already like 6 foot 2 or something idk. (He grows to be 8′5.)
This is so funny because when you think of the Phantom Troupe you think of incredibly twisted people, but no, their original original name came from them trying to make a company name for their little dubbing thing.
Im Crying again haha. I mean I guess in the end he did become a villain, so wish fulfilled!
This line is so relevant to so many things involving Uvogin, even having to do with his character in the yorknew arc
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO ONO NO ON NO NON ONON ONO OOOHHH NOOOO SARASA. COMMUNICATION IS KEY SARASA. JUST TELL THEM THAT THERE WAS A BUNCH OF TAPES THERE. SARASA. SARASA NO STOP RUNNING COME BACK
NO!!!!!!!!!! YOU CANT DO THAT
Chapter 397: Founding Part 3
at least this time I can take fro m the viz official translation.. Ha ha
Are you ready guys? This is going to be a wild ride! (Warning for Child Abduction and death especially here)
So they finally notice that Sarasa’s not here and there Might be Something wrong! WHY DID I HAVE TO BE RIGHT ABOUT THIS IN MY CHAPTER 395 REVIEW.
This is Depressing but I love the attention to detail with how he’s gripping his shorts. I just wanted to point that out
Oh and haha he’s blaming himself for something only somewhat inside his control as a young child... Hmm.. That sounds familiar...
Dont you love when you start having a little more hope for something again...
Oh haha look at them on the bike Oh look everybodys doing their own part in the search!!!......
Oh god....
....And then everything just plummets....
Seriously when I read this part I felt my heart drop. SO much so that I made a whole redraw of it for chapter 357!
I love Hunter x Hunter.
THIS WAS THE TREE. THE TREE. TOGASHI WHY. I TRUSTED YOU WITH THE TREE. WHYYYYYY
mmm I hate this I hate this I hate this I hate this
Currently completely Fine right now actually ignore everything I just said.
NEVERMIND. IM NOT SHOWING THE PANELS WHERE IT HAS WHATS IN THE BAG FOR OBVIOUS REASONS BUT LIKE. THERE WAS A NOTE. ON HER AND IT HAD A FREAKING SMILEY FACE ON IT
A SMILE FACE....
My exact reaction
GEEEZZZ!!!!!
GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IM NOT OK WITH THIS AT ALL OK OH MY GOD NEXT PAGE NOW PLEASE NEXT
Thank You.
I feel like the flowers on her head would be little orange roses.. Because well for one, the orange cleaner, and also orange roses are a symbol for Joy I think and that’s perfect for her
Im so glad that Togashi decided to make this little scene because I wouldn’t be able to handle what just happened before without this closure and Im pretty sure that was done on purpose because That was like one of the most horrific scenes in Hunter x Hunter in my opinion.
You could feel how everybody was panicking and the grief and anguish and it was just aaahhhhhhggghghhgh.......
Anyways. Onto another thing that is helping me process all of this lol
NEN!!
LITTLE MACHI AND NEN!! EVEN BETTER!
This is another line that I liked better in the unofficial translation
JUST. JUST. “Those pretty eyes of yours make my skin crawl.” ESPECIALLY IN THE CONTEXT OF MACHI IS SUCH A COOL LINE!!! anyways :)
I like nen so This is also very relieving. We are getting lore....
THIS GUYS LIKE 11 AND HES ALREADY DOING STUFF TO FIX METEOR CITY. SO IS CHROLLO THE REASON WHY METEOR CITY HAS TO DO WITH THE MAFIA???? PROBABLY.
Add Predicts the technological revolution to baby Chrollo’s achievement list. This kid Hunter x Hunter children are insane for a fact
He would do great in my English 10 Honors class with all that evidence and reasoning there
hey guys its Shalnark here and today I’m going to explain chrollos Nefarious plot
Hes so happy that he didnt have to do 3 paragraphs of more explaining! ..also
Jus dont even ask why I made this but I sure did I also made a video but idk how to put videos on tumblr other than have them be at the top which is not what I want so you just get this
I kind of wish we got more of younger Shalnark because we got focus on Paku and Uvo who are both... decreased and you know...
oh god I just realized
All the phantom troupe characters that are commonly nicknamed are Dead. Quick everybody stop saying Nobu for Nobunaga
Anyways
At least he gets a little bit of a moment here
I feel so bad for Sheila little sheila talk here
Like man her best friend just got Murdered and she can not do this. I bet part of her does not want to be involved with the troupe anymore because they have the most to do with her death, and maybe she even counts them responsible for them not caring, and with that she probably blames herself too.
I really want to see her again she is such a character and there’s no way that Togashi’s just gonna bring her back here and not have her be plot relevant. Was she for or against the kurta massacre!??!?!?!? wha????
Top ten ways to become a mass murderer
lets play a game. Is this a quote from Kurapika or Chrollo?
Look at all these parallels and foreshadowing... Putting that in perspective, that means that Chrollo became the very person he sought to destroy as a child, and I wonder if he realizes that, especially now in his current mental and emotional condition. But at the same time, he may have been expecting that. He should know that the Troupe has all the right to be persecuted with the amount of carnage that they’ve caused.
THIS OUT OF CONTEXT.
I think the whole thing with the Villain and this panel is a callback to Uvo’s line about being the worlds greatest villain, and maybe Chrollo was thinking that he would fit as leader because of that but...
Get pranked! Also notice how Paku is also gripping the end of her dress. Since I’m an empath, I can tell that Paku is having mixed feelings and is nervous about this /s
In 3 years he shed his old pair of eyes and then regrew Strange Eyes. Hold on.
This is extremely important and like one of the best things Ive ever made.
He has Strange Eyes HE GOT HIS STRANGE EYES LETS GOOOOOO
I decided I wanted to do math So their reunion happens around 7 years before the Kurta massacre, and that’s when Chrollo is 21.. so 10 years after sarasa’s death is when the Kurta massacre takes place.
Ok were finally to the end of this fun fun fun Chapter! I have 2 questions.
1. Where is Phinks?
2. Shalnark What has he the Hair and Outfit? What? Ok well technically he’s in style since this is like the mid-late 80′s then but he looks a little bit like a Flamboyant Pop star from that era and then everybody else is just regular for their character. Then there’s just Shalnark with his fluffy mullet and the oversized suit and the collar
And also if that was his style when and why did he change? We could have had a totally different Shalnark tbh but I’m happy with the one we have.
Anyways
Hope you enjoyed this absolute behemoth of a post and I may do another one with the next two chapters some time
In the meantime, who knows, just keep doing what you do & make sure you drink enough water so that your pee looks like light pineapple juice or lemonade (that means youre healthy)
I’m deciding to use the viz translations since I didn’t review yesterday and they come out on sundays so yeaaa
Ok so we begin with Hinrigh who has Cracked The Code on the Heil-Ly base thing
They’re gonna go after those two guys and...... To be honest I don’t care if they end up dying!!!! Go ahead!! I forgot their names already and Togashi’s going to need to manage the like 60 new characters that he’s made this arc...
Man, I miss Kurapika and the Zodiacs and the Princes and Beyonds team... hm...
Like these characters I love and all like Lynch and Zakuro and Tserriednich’s Militia people and Hinrigh but Man where did everybody else go????
Well good news is later this chapter we at least have the troupe!!
(Togashis trying to tell us to enjoy the little detours-- to the fullest)
Volksen ever. Apparently her officially translated name is like Bork something but Volk is a lot better in My opinion and people spell Giuliano like Juliano all the time so does it Really Matter?
Volk makes me think of a Volkswagen car and Bork makes me think she has an acidic reflux I’m sorry.
Also Otocin = Otoshin (doesn’t really matter to me) and Momolly = Momori (Momori is way cooler sorry so I will also be saying Momori)
I also permanently associate Volksen with octopi now but that’s besides the point.
Anyways enough about the 6 People from last chapter let’s move on.
Fun fact I still cant remember his freaking name What Is it Somebody please say It nobody has said it in the past 5 chapters and I’m confused but anyways.
He says the Phantom troupe are checking out 3102 (next to the trap room 3101) because they think there might be a Hideout behind rooms 3101-3103 and of course they’re being insane about it, since to them it doesn’t matter if they have a plan or not.
He’s been talking a lot about people being captured..... Togashi? Is this going to be another big theme??
He needs some water or some skin moisturizer or something He can’t be living like this dude look how dry that skin is...
Anyways they're threatening this guy to get in the room as you do.
I’m going to thank Togashi forever for visuals because without them in this arc I would be entirely lost.
I really don’t have any sympathy for this guy but Imagine if three guys just came into your room and then cut a hole in your bathroom.
I’m sorry but in this panel he looks so emo it’s... It’s the hair and the... The everything looks extra emo.
I love this conversation cause it opens new parallels between the mafia and the troupe, which Phinks, Feitan, and Nobunaga are already involved with and it gives some more insight, but also What is Nobunaga holding right now.
Is that like a ball of light or something
And why is it the only one there
Anyways enough of looking at random details its its
ITS FLASHBACK TIME
When I saw this page spread I kid you not I think I went crazy for a second. It’s a callback to the flashback in chapter... 102 (the panels were redrawn!!!!!!@2442454##$#%^$#)
I was right with Chrollo being the one on the left and Franklin being the one on the right closest to the tape, but I thought Shalnark would be the one sitting in front of the elder, and Phinks was the one running at the bottom..... However..
THE ONE WITH THE CURLY WAVY HAIR IS SHALNARK.......... (broken heart crying emoji /pos)
God I love this Flashback Look at them all. Shalnark and Chrollo are my best guess at like 9 years old and Franklin is probably like uhh 16 or something.
Franklin has a Oldest-brother-that-is-cool-and-is-in-college-while-you-are-in-middle-school vibe which I’m not being super specific about you guys have to know what I’m talking about right.
Tbh this part felt a bit like I was on something but it’s ok it works out!
I love how they have Territory like its warrior cats. Like theyre those kids on the playground that would play warriors (definitely not me /s) But its taken to the actual extreme and they actually fight.
I’m guessing Uvo is also 16 but Puberty just hit him in the face with an iron bat. He’s like the Average bully archetype but also taken to the extreme because they live in a dump city.
Machi... She’s just... She’s like 5 or 6 years old oh my god she’s a literal baby actually... and she’s just handing Uvo a “Murder Weapon” they would probably call it.
Baby Syanorke being a little smartass and then Immediately getting hit in the head with a plank of wood and passing out This was like the funniest part ever
Look at him tumble
...
Wait
.....
No...
NOOO.......
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOLY CRAP
...Anyways let’s move past that...
Fist fight Immediately 1 v 1
The low quality running of the little guy I can’t believe he’s a little guy
HELP ME THIS IS TERRIFYING WHY DO THEY LOOK LIKE THAT
He is also Average bully archetype No. 2 but a different flavor for sure...... His hair looks like a walnut Phinks what are you doing....
Umm ok so Age guesstimate... the first appearance Phinks looks older and then he looks smaller in the other panel... So I’m gonna say he’s like 13 and Feitan...
...
Yea I have no Idea let’s just say 13 as well.
Get wrecked. I only noticed the arrow now so hopefully you see it too now.
The little guy the little thief
Meteor city civilization real
AGAIN WITH THE PEOPLE GETTING CAPTURED AND STUFF??
Ok so Basically
Since Meteor city residents technically don’t exist since they don’t have any form of identification, that means it was legal to kidnap them, kill them, commit crime against them etc since they technically “weren’t human”...
A while later to prevent this, Meteor city allied with the mafia to be safe, but before that there were hundreds of victims and 70% of them were under 15.
Their ties with the mafia grew stronger, and Nen abilities came about the elders, and a pledge was made (The law of retribution):
“Only life can compensate for a life.”
“We’ll accept anything you leave here, but don’t ever take anything away from us.” (a note left at the kurta massacre, if it rings a bell)
And so with all this going on the Phantom troupe formed 12234543
PAKUNODA!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love her hair so much here its real
This is so adorale im cyring .........
Ddue just became a part of the council at 9 years old I guess!
Tiny Just tiny little ones
POWER CLEANERS HELP
MIGHTY SWEEPIN POWER CLEANERS
He also created dubbing wow /s
IM CYRING AGAIN ........ So Paku must be like 8 or something but they have an Older sister Younger brother dynamic lol
SHEILA?!?!?! You mean the lady in volume 0 who looks uncannily similar to Pariston Hill?
...*snif* *sniffleef* eu......e.ue ,,
Omg its Sheila and Sarasa... Sheila still has her silly rat ears...
I like Sarasa she’s a little silly and I wonder if she’ll be relevant too but as far as I know I dont remember her.
hehe im just imagining all of them just sitting down and watching a really badly dubbed but endearing episode of the power ra-cleaners.
D Hunter....
I live them that’s all I have to say
Oh god More human trafficking
Even worse child trafficking... Yea this is going to be relevant
And then It just skips back to them peacefully HELP
To be continued!!! Yea nothing bad happening here totally
I’m guessing since the Title of the chapter is Founding: Part 1 that we’re still going to be in the flashback in part 2 since there’s still stuff that needs to happen.
I mean we still have yet to see 12 year old Nobunaga and what about the whole Council thing??
Oh god wait somebody may get captured during the screening NO
And why is it called founding?? The troupe is officially founded I think when they’re like mm... I wanna say maybe 6 or 7 years older so maybe there’s a time skip idk.
Anyways keep being silly Goofer man Behave yourself.
(remember the hunter exam applicant form or wtv in the 1999 version well I wanted to draw them so here ignore the bad coloring and shading i made this at 2 am)
This chapter is a little crazy I have SOME WORDS ON IT!!!
Obviously spoilers !
Alright so it starts out normal and continuing from the last chapter, a little confusing cause the guy is still alive.
People thought that the Misha person was the cat apparently, but no, Hinrigh sadly did not name the little guy... but... we did get THIS
HI MISHA?!?!?!?
This ability is pretty sick and cool and awesome if i do say so myself, and I love the name. It also carries on from her original life because she was a cleaner, and her dedication for the Xi-Yu family must have been pretty strong if she developed this.
I cant wait to see more uses of this ability later on.
Speaking of Xi-Yu, I was NOT AT ALL PREPARED FOR THE NEXT PART.
We get back to Lynch and Zakuro who are punching these poor people above 6′2 and then once they start to doubt their tactics... GUESS WHO SHOWS UP.
I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS AT ALL!? The fact that he has the audacity to dress in a similar fashion to how he did before says a lot. He is definitely waiting for the Phantom Troupe to come and find him, and is most likely not interested in any of the families associates at the moment.
My heart dropped when I saw this scene and I could feel Zakuros fear. He’s obviously grown considerably stronger if his very presence is intimidating.
I really love the depth into post mortem nen in this arc. It’s been a pretty reoccurring thing over all. Iirc the first callback is the fact that the seed urn ceremony was a product of an ancestors post mortem nen, then we have the highlight on the meteor city elders post mortem nen (sun and moon), then obviously here we have hisoka, then we have camilla and the curses AND also kachos nen beast, and NOW we have Misha!! whew. There’s probably more that I haven’t listed... I feel like post mortem nen will be even more important later. (especially with Kurapika really pushing his lifespan)
Im begging for him not to kill them PLEASSEEEEE DONT KILL ZAKURO AND LYCNH. PLEASE.
Also I’m just thinking though. Hisoka is building up to be an unbelievably strong character. At this point after death, I think he has become stronger than all of the troupe members, so that’s trouble when they are the ones wanting to kill Hisoka a lot, and when he is going to kill them on sight. I think thats why he made his desicion, to really test his strength with his post mortem nen... if he thinks hes that strong, he very well may be.
And I’m just thinking. Who else is unreasonably and inhumanely strong that really no other character (probably other than the chimera ants lol) could compare to?
Tserriednich, of course. We have to tie the threads somehow, don’t we?
I believe that if Hisoka even lays his eyes on that man he will have a new target. His whole power scaling thing will be out of the roof.
You could also say Ging, but first of all, he’s completely occupied with another endeavor, so I doubt he would be very interested in fighting anybody, and second of all, if he is going to fight somebody, he most likely wouldn’t be interested in fighting somebody like Hisoka. Unlike Chrollo, he would not let him have his way and let him fight him. He’s already getting under Pariston’s skin by doing a similar thing by getting in his way.
Tserriednich is much different... he’s... interesting for sure, and would probably find Hisoka very intriguing (specimen worthy).
Anyways, Moving on we have even more people looking for Hisoka. I wonder what they’ll do once they realize that Xi-Yu was the first to find him, whether they still have him by the next time we see them. (please let lynch and zakuro live please let lycnh and zakuro live plea-) I wasn’t very interested in that though.
We’re back to Phinks, Feitan, and Nobunaga! It looks like theyve established a back and forth bond of some sort with Cha-R, so the last thing they want to do is kill them, and a search party went out.
Also fun fact I guess, Franklin is probably claustrophobic. I love how we just get these random facts like we didn’t need to know that Shizuku is left handed and that she forgets everything but we do.
They know of Luini and I really dont think they like him lol.
Luini is a super fan and I think Togashi was trying to do commentary on toxic fans/parasocial relationships with him which is interesting but im sorry this is just so funny.
“THE WIKI PAGE” THE WIKI PAGE???????????????????? THIS ISN’T AN OFFICIAL TRANSLATION BUT STILL.
Does this mean what I think it means, that the hunterpedia wiki exists IN CANON?
Most likely not the actual wiki but like still. This implies that there’s like forums talking about characters that we know about, and there’s probably some community of people who fans over and romanticizes the troupe in that world like we have here now for serial killers... oh boy. That means that those Chrollo stans are real. Thanks Luini. I really didnt want to think about that but thanks Luini.
I’m gonna try to get that imagination out of my head. Anyways, I loved this chapter, it was awesome as always and so are you.
Keep being awesome. (I don’t have any image to show you sadly)
