this, what happened to his fishing rod? it vanished like it was nothing
>>
>>140755616
This, I guess even the mighty Togashi with all his free time couldn't think of a way to make that fucking thing a viable weapon in the long run. I mean, the last thing Gon did with it was flip a tile as a distraction and later on he did the same thing with his bare hands.

I like how Gon has to say his attack name but stuttered when saying it so now he has to say ja-Janken, I don't know why but I found it funny
>>
>>140755727
I was actually thinking about how his rod could work along with Gon's power
I was just disapointed Togashi never did anything with shu along the lines of:
>Enhancing + Shu: Gon's rod hardens and he can use it as a sort of metal bat; similarly to how he and Killua hardened the shovels when training with Bisky
>Transmuting + Shu: The nen around his rod gets the properties of a blade, turning it more into a katana
>Emitting + Shu: God sents his energy on the hook area of the rod, allowing him to send it flying at the opponent with high strengh
>>
>>140755642

Get an attention span. Gon explained why he stopped using it.

In the introduction of Gon-san, Togashi has basically taken one of the most archetypal shounen tropes of all and recast it as an existentially brutal horror. Gon throws away his entire future to become a grotesque vision of what that future could be, in order to exact revenge.

Strength does not a gary stu make. Battle manga protagonists need to be a little special in order to have plot relevance. It's a good solution that that Gon and Killua have high potential but they're only kids and start out knowing nothing about nen. That way they progress fast but they still get whooped by black belts.
>>
>>140761616
There's not much to show, senpai. When every arc seems to end in plot armor and asspulls, I can't really get myself to care about "puzzle dynamics". Also, so far all of the characters are just as boring as just about any other battle shounen I dropped.

I was asking how long it takes until "the thing" happens that apparently sets HxH apart from the others, because it sure as hell hasn't happened yet.

Seeing side by side comparisons just makes it that much more obvious that the 1999 version is superior in every respect. Exactly which scenes did 2011 handle better than 99? If you actually watched the comparisons you would know that 1999 had better storyboarding, art and animation style than 2011 in every important scene. Fluid animation is made possible by 1) a decent frame rate and 2) the use of smears - Norio Matsumoto's animation style is distinctive due to the relatively high FPS his heavy use of smears require. The 2011 version has low FPS and does not use smears but simple motion blurs which make the animation look less fluid. The use of motion blur instead of smears is a telling sign that the animator is an amateur who has no idea what he's doing.

I don't get why people are trying to raise doubts about which series is better. 2011 is so obviously less polished, drawn by amateurs, badly directed, that you really cannot make yourself credible with any kind of argument to the effect of making them seem even remotely close.

Speed lines are another sign you have no idea how to animate fluidity in an action scene. Compare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uw8Io09FeL4
The 2011 version looks like shit because there's motherfucking speed lines everywhere. The 1999 version by contrast did not use speed lines but instead depicted the actual rotation of the background. This shows the excellent use of camera angles and movement in the 1999 version to show the dynamics of the action. The 2011 version does not rotate the camera, it just cuts from one angle to the next. This is laziness, and it destroys dynanism in the scene. Again, if you don't know anything about animation, don't make silly comments about how 2011 handles some scenes better. It doesn't. Anyone saying that the 2011 version is even remotely close to the 1999 series immediately reveals that he doesn't know anything about animation.

>Is it fun
Nope, it's actually quite dull most of the time but it's the high points that are strung along that make it worth watching/reading

>are the fights cool?
There's surprisingly little fighting actually. For a battle manga it doesn't get heavy into battles until like the 4th arc and then also gladly shuts the fights off again once that's done. But when they do fight, yes, it's very cool and nicely animated (either 99 or '11)

My advice, watch '11, then '99. then read the manga.

I know most people think that but I'd argue that watching/reading in that order builds the greatest appreciation for each thing along that line. If you go from 99 to 2011 you're going to be in for a rough time but there are some things 2011 did (especially in the earliest episodes) that make the earliest parts of it easier to watch. I also think the "switch over" method where you only start watching 2011 at GI/CA is a bad idea because you're going to be continuing from one art style into a completely different one and that can be jarring. But going from 2011 to 99 you can appreciate the liberties 99 takes, the moments it has over 2011, and so on. I guess the best way to put it is that with 2011 you get a complete and varied experience, leave satisfied, and then can go on to 99 if you've liked what you've seen enough. Then the manga to fill in and refresh on whatever you might have missed, and to enjoy Togashi's art.

It's funny you say this because the amount of times there have been people in HxH threads who are at a lost on the subject matter, or don't really understand what people are talking about, 99% of the time it's because they've only watched 2011 and because they were told that it was a "complete" adaptation that was "100% accurate" they never thought to pick up the manga, and so end up confused during a lot of discussions.

>2011fags will defend this
>>
>>140766584

Oh you are just trolling or a filthy kyoani fag.
>>
>>140766658
This, and when >>140766408 brings up "there are some things 2011 did that make the earliest parts of it easier to watch" it is a prime example of the sort of practice that throws many fans off in a loop when reading the latest manga chapters. 2011 skims through as much "boring" and "uninteresting" parts as possible through integral parts of the story in order to provide a more simplistic viewing experience and this is what you end up with, a fanbase filled with clueless morons.

2011 has done nothing but shit up the fanbase and it's become a perpetual cycle of retards recommending others to watch that garbage adaptation. For fucks sake they didn't even include KITE in the first fucking episode! Arguably one of the most important characters in the series who reappears later in an integral role.

It actually has just enough. It's 2011 that's missing animation and makes do with dozens of stills ripped off from the manga as compensation.

There's nothing wrong with liking the filler episodes, hell the creator of the series liked it. And since he took ideas from it, that's says that if he thought of it it first then would have been in the manga.

So actively pointless to complain about filler episodes existence or even claim that it's not close to the manga. Since the mangaka themselves uses idea from it.

Dont listen to anyone here saying read the manga, I agree with reading the source 99% of the time, that golden rule is always a given, but for HxH I would make an exception, Togashi is a piece of shit as a mangaka, the fucker clearly doesnt care about the series at all anymore, the manga gets almost unvearable shitty at some points (Chimera Arc and Greed Island), the drawings end up looking like doodles, even with all of this I would still recommend reading the manga, the thing is, the 2011 anime is literally perfect, the animation is great, every single fight is well though and looks really fluid, none of this matters though since the entire series both in the manga and anime goes to shit after the Chimera Ant Arc, The fucking coward mangaka ends up dismissing half the shit that happens (dead characters, character growth) in the next arc, not even gonna spoil it for you but for example one important male character death (this guy was 30 something, just to put some context), basically what started the whole arc, ends up being rewriten into that same character being revived as a half chimera loli (I wish I was making this shit up).

It was common knowledge back then, but it was in Togashi's author comments at the time, he'd frequently talk about the meetings he'd go to with the anime staff. Also Ponzle and Pockle, they had never spoken in the manga at all, and Gon-san was a joke that the '99 staff used to have.

He was also involved in the creation of the '99 novels. The full extent of his involvement is unknown but it's known that he was involved with it's creation.

The man was/is sick and happy to finally be able to walk on his own. His comments are actually no different from other mangaka.

Well all I have to go by are his interviews, the little we know about his personal life, interests and habits and of course his manga.

It appears Togashi has difficulty balancing multiple things in his life at the same time, however minor, when he dedicates himself to one thing everything else is neglected - for example his total neglect for cleaning (detailed in a YYH volume and even seen in this picture). I'm curious if he also neglects basic functional tasks such as personal hygiene and eating as well. It's without a doubt he has the most incredible mind and feeling for his craft, and when he applies himself to something, he gives 100% Memes aside, it could well be video games-Dragon Quest or otherwise - taking up his main focus while he's on hiatus.
>>
Will the anime ever return? I had loads of fun watching it.
>>
>>140768763
Togashi: It’s not the current “HH”, I had talked to the voice actor of “YuYu’s” Urameshi Yusuke (※10), Sasaki
Nozomu (※11). Because they can only use their voice to express the character, so the way they research and
understand the characters is totally different from the mangaka. After I understood this, I found it quite interesting.
Fujimaki: Because I did not have any time to go to the recording studio at all, so I really want to take a look.
Togashi: If you go, they will tell you to voice a character, you know. In the recent “HH”, I voiced the person who fell
from the Trick Tower and got eaten by monster birds (※12). Though I was OK-ed after one try that is (strained
laugh).

I don't understand, your definition of something cool and interesting is anything you havent seen before
you don't care how it's applied as long as it hasn't been done in a certain way before.
at leastthat's what I'm getting from your implications.
And you seem to be full of shit from saying that, you leave room for nothing new, hell all those things you mentioned are interesting when done right, like Part 4 and 7 stands, everything about Nen and lower forms of it (like gyo, en, ect.), jutsus being used tactifully like Shikamaru's arc againts Hidan and Kakuzu before the manga tuned into a power level wank-fest, and Gash Bell's spell books.
