![]() I didn't miss them, didn't miss them at all. Regarding the absence of Kurapika, Leorio, Hisoka, or the Spider. Hardly in any previous arc the narration had reached similar levels (maybe only in the best parts of York Shin or Greed Island). The narration was a bit poor after Kaito's death and before Gon and Killua split, but after that has improved to become stunning with the raid in the king's palace. The best fight might still be Hisoka vs Kastro (that is TO ME: priceless narration), but I think this arc has had its worthy matches. Nen battles are always nen battles, and I don't think they have lost their wit. What do you mean by "it strayed too far from what it was in the beginning"? Yet from this post of yours I could understand only that you don't like it, and not exactly why. ![]() My whole point I guess is that I think it's a rather ignorant assumption on your part that some of us don't like this just based on the lack of Gon/Killua and/or lack of clearly we have different opinions about this arc. So I'm going to guess and say that it's been at least 5 years. If I remember correctly, we haven't seen Leorio or Kurapica since before the Greed Island arc. Now figure how long it's been since we've seen the other characters who were once a major part of this manga. After a hiatus of more than a year though, yes, I want to see those two, especially given the cliffhanger with Gon and his change and ripped off arm. Hisoka, Kurapica, and Leorio just to name a few. There are several other characters I'd enjoy just as well. As for missing Gon and Killua, I don't need to see them every five minutes either. It's just strayed too far from what it was in the beginning all the way through the Greed Island arc imo. Lack of action doesn't play a part of not liking it. I haven't liked it since near the beginning. As for this arc being great, that's your opinion. That's not why I read this to begin with. You're right in the fact that this manga has never been about a ton of action. This manga has never been about action every five seconds. ![]() People just miss seeing Gon and Killua every five minutes. I didn't dislike this last arc at all, leaving arts and hiatus aside.īesides the hiatus this arc is just great. Now he will probably try to get his love back, and then die because of the rose's curse. Poufu's life, which he was ready to sacrifice, was saved, but his wish was crushed. Was it luck or not, Werefin's supposed-to-be last word was chosen wisely: her name was enough to awaken Meruem's love towards her, and to remind the king of his ultimate choise: being no more ant, but a human being, respectful to life and weakness. This way, Poufu had almost succeeded at having Werefin killed by the King before he could talk about Komougi : Poufu said that Werefin could not answer the King's question because otherwise he would have revealed the secret, thus invalidating their challenge. That's why Poufu rushed back in order to kill Komugi and obliterate the thinnest trace of her existence and, when he realized he wasn't making it, he proposed this challenge to the King, in order to slow him down at finding evidence about Poufu's secret, Komugi. (even though it was explicitly said only in this last chapter) How? Preventing him from remembering about Komugi, the very first human being that taught him that even though weak, human beings can be important. Poufu had always wanted the King to be inhuman and against humans, and thus decided to prevent him from remembering of his previous choice, even at the cost of his own very life. When his memory was erased by the explosion, the King had forgotten the way he had chosen, and was starting to behave again in a beast-like manner. This was an inescapable step of chimera ants' evolution, a necessary choice between humanity and their ant/beast identity. even though i HAD to read again the chapters from the assault to the king's palace in order to remember what had happened before this last hiatus and understand what was going on now!īefore and during his fight with Neteru, the King (thanks to Komugi) was getting more and more similar to a human, forgetting his ant nature.
