To the anon ripping Viz scanlations and uploading them for us plebeians to rejoice, it looks like you are taking screenshots of the pages or something, is that correct?
I believe there might be a way to directly get the file from your phone, unaltered and with better quality. If you share with us how the process of getting the Viz chapter happens, we might be able to help.
Anyway, many thanks for sharing those chapters with the community; niggastream and mangapanda are utterly horrible in both translation and quality, so Viz is the only sane choice.
WHO HYPED FOR 347?
Should be out today.
How do we contact Togashi?
I want to thank him for Hunter x Hunter and tell him to make and open-world 3D Greed Island game.
>>110778454
Green Island a shit. Dark continent is the shit.
>>110778497
G.I. has some extremely interesting concepts for an open-world adventure RPG: the entire Nen system, you can transform any item in a card, special slot cards being limited in the world, and all the rest. Even more if the scenario, characters, monsters, etc. are directly from the original concept as well. I actually began this idea quite some time ago over here: https://github.com/GingFreecss/Greed-Island
I hoped I'd be knowledgeable enough by now to start programming it, but my basic C and Common Lisp abilities are far from enough and with my current work, I think I might never be able to make it ;_;Plus, we will only be getting to the DC in a decade
>>110778497
Dark Continent wouldn't translate nicely to a game. Greed Island IS a game, with all the rules and shit set up already.
> http://www.viz.com/manga/digital/hunter-x-hunter
Are those uploaded anywhere?
Perfect digital version of every volume.
I'd buy for my Kindle, but $6.99*32 volumes = $224, which is too expensive for me.
>>110778665
We haven't even seen the Dark Continent yet so how do you know
Greed Island is probably the worst (that is, least good) arc, but I would play a game based on it.
>>110779717
We know what the dark continent is: a place where everything is huge and there are calamities that cause diseases, take over a person, etc.
Also, see OP's picture for a sneak peak of the world. It's enormous.
Translating it to a game would be extremely hard.
G.I., on the other hand, already is a game. All concepts are there; the cards, the spells, the map, the characters, etc.
>>110779761
It seems most people either love or hate Greed Island, I quite like the concept, even though, story-wise, it wasn't that great. But its ideas are pretty solid.
>>110779793
And video games also have big monsters that cause status effects.
It would be just like big world form Super Mario 3
>>110779919
Dark Continent "status effects" include, but are not limited too:
>Getting made into a beast's pet and turning into a shriveled up corpse in exchange for pleasure
>Your head getting ripped off and replaced by a sphere that proceeds to skull fuck everyone else
>Being infected by contagious bloodlust that probably horrifically mutates you too
>Being possessed by a reality warping gas genie that instantly kills you and anyone close to you if you fail to fulfill its requests
>Immortal zombie plague

Looking good there Pitou.
Question: Does MangaStream use Viz translations? I'm kinda new to the whole downloading manga thing
>>110780503
One week before the chapter is officially released in Japan, mangastream (niggastream) and mangapanda (waterpanda) get early scans. Then they proceed to translate it horribly. Niggastream sounds better, but is less accurate. Waterpanda is convoluted but the content is more correct. Both are shit.
Then, one week later, it's released in Japan and, practically simultaneously, Viz releases it officially on the US, with professional translation and scanlation.
If it wasn't for the one-week delay, we'd all read Viz only, but in the current situation, we read whatever comes first for a sneak peak and initial discussion, until Viz releases their version one week (actually 6 days) later so we get the proper idea of what's going on.
If you aren't impatient, just wait for Viz.
>>110780503
Both mangapanda and mangastream have horrible translations and scans. Viz is the only acceptable version, but it comes almost a week later.
Pic related. Viz is the top version. The other 2 makes up a problem that doesn't exist. It's simply a bad mood.
It's so dense.
>>110780503
Top is Viz.
Middle is waterpanda.
Bottom is niggastream.
>>110780754
That's a bad example. Kurapika WAS stressed out over a big problem, being unable to find the source of the video with the remaining eyes. In this case it's Viz that was liberal in their translations.
>>110780503
Mangastream: overfilters the shit out of the scans, loses much detail. Translations is incredibly horrible, they change what the character is saying in its essence many times, and put some nigga speak too, just to make it even worse. Don't trust what you read. It's most likely wrong.
Mangapanda: water down the scan to an entire new level. Scan quality is even worse than mangastream. The translation is shit and hard to read, but much more accurate than mangastream's.
Viz: professional version. Good translation and good scans. But comes 1 week after the other 2.
Viz on top.
Niggastream on bottom.
>>110780667
>>110780754
>>110780853
>>110780994
I've been downloading the recent chapters from MangaStream, which is why I asked. Where could I get Viz? Nyaa shows nothing
>>110781284
When did mangastream get so bad, I don't remember them being this bad a few years ago.
>>110778358
>those helpless adorable elephants
WHAT IS TREETRUNKS DOING IN THIS?!

>>110781730
https://mega.co.nz/#F!PYVAyQia!kNr3PzjFPE30cs_TeN8APw
Gets a new chapter every Monday, 5 or 6 days after niggastream and waterpanda
>>110782025
>>110782084
We should really start putting this in the OP of every thread. It would cut down on the number of people asking...
Oh and 347 just came out on Viz, I'll go ahead and start pulling the images for you guys. Give me a few minutes.
>>110782025
>>110782084
> .rar
I'm not complaining or anything, but it'd be better if it was .zip
.rar is proprietary and not native in many systems.
>>110782197
I'm against that idea because it will make HxH threads start looking like "generals", which is never a good idea...
Maybe we can only post it on a second or third post, but not make an inflexible first one
>>110782252
Great! Thank you!
What method do you use?
>>110782285
>it will make HxH threads start looking like "generals"
It already is. The faggot won't stop making them
>>110782252
Yay! Have you read the OP? He says there might be a better you than your current way. I'm fine as it is, but if what he says make sense, I think it would be good doing it.
>>110781945
I remember them being alright, then everything got ghetto with every character acting like he'd bust a cap in a nigga.
It's like they translate first, then they put it into that gangster talk conversion site, whatever the fuck it's called, before putting it in the manga.
>>110782377
I'm not as bothered by the nigga speak than I am by the mistranslations. See >>110781284
The idea is totally different. If it weren't for Viz, we wouldn't know what was actually going on. Mangastream is simply too far from the correct translation.
It's like they put the chapter in Google Translate and then make it sound gangsta. That's about it.
>>110782334
>>110782368
For right now I'm just going to use the normal method to get it out quickly, but I'll look into the other method after I finish.
>>110782025
>>110782084
What about the older chapters?
I think everything after the [ng] tank scans is pig disgusting togashi scribble mag scans.
Alright, here's 347:
https://www.mediafire.com/?o8dt6p4bmb8op7g
If the owner of the Mega is here feel free to add it to the archive. I'm going to look into this other method now to see if it's better quality.
>>110782025
>>110782084
Thanks for these
>>110782883
Thanks
>>110782883
Bless you, anon.
Well someone fill me on this other method then, how do you go about it? Is there a particular app or something?
And just and FYI, it's not one person doing all these chapters. I've done three of them but I don't know who did the others.
>>110782548
All volumes are available by Viz.
http://www.viz.com/manga/digital/hunter-x-hunter
And it's not jump scans, but tankobon quality.
Unfortunately, it costs 7 dollars each volume.
And as there are 32 volumes so far, that'd end up at $224
>>110782525
What's your current method? Taking screenshots? And where do you access the chapters? The unadulterated, original images might be somewhere in the computer, most likely in a /tmp
We should be able to get them with a few tries
>>110782883
Than you, based anon!
>>110783044
>Unfortunately, it costs 7 dollars each volume.
>And as there are 32 volumes so far, that'd end up at $224
Yes anyone uploaded them yet?
>>110783044
I've just been taking screenshots. I access them from Vizmanga.
>>110783000
>>110783122
There is no automatic method, but here's my rationale. The images you see are saved somewhere on your computer. This place is probably a temporary folder so you don't access it easily for further redistribution. We just have to find it.
Firstly, what Operating System are you on, when viewing the chapters?
>>110783111
No, because no one is willing to spend 224, and frankly, I don't think it costs only 224, because apparently, they are fucking rare with inflated prices like the Xenoblade game
>>110783242
Have you seen the link I posted?
They all cost $5 for the "Viz Manga" digital versions and $7 for other digital versions.
>>110782883
> .zip
Thanks!
>>110783377
...? Does it matter?
>>110783485
Not much, but .rar is proprietary and not available everywhere. Anyway, it's mostly nitpicking, shouldn't matter.
>>110783536
All right. Do you see it in browser or is there a Viz program that you installed?
If on browser, which browser?
>>110783576
I usually use Chrome, but any other will work if it's easier.
>>110783617
All right, try looking C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache and see if the images are there, or maybe the full chapter. Also, anything else that might seem relevant, as it might be encoded.
>>110782025
>>110782084
I just discovered that 2 days ago they have blocked the IP of Mega in my country. What a joke.
>>110782361
I-I'm sorry anon, it's pretty often me. I just enjoy talking about my favourite manga.
>>110780963
>>110780963
No, the Japanese simply said he was in a bad mood.
>>110780383
ikkushonpe?
>>110783890
Yeah, he's almost certainly one of the G.I. creators, as he alson knows Ging.
And he's also some way related to Sheila, who gave Kurapika and Pairo the D Hunter Book.
We had some quite interesting hypothesis about all this in yesterday's thread.
Start reading here: https://archive.foolz.us/a/thread/110718306/#110748202
>>110783670
I see everything but it's all nonextension files (or encoded). Judging from the size I think I've found the images, but I don;t know how to conver them (renaming them doesn't work).
>>110782883
>Paris
Eat your hearts out fujos and get to work on those doujins.
Thanks anon. Ging being able to copy punching abilities, specifically, is kind of funny.
>>110783873
Just ignore him anon, we needed one for the Viz releases anyway.
>>110784043
All right, we are getting there.
Do the number of "possible encoded images" match the number of pages in the chapter?
>>110778358
today?
It's normally Wednesday isn't it?
>>110784105
More or less, there's 10 images and 9 files at 2048kb (others at 1000-2000kb). This has to be them though due to the time and nothing else being the right size.
In Chrome you can download most things by pushing F12 -> Network before you click it and picking out the URL from there. Although it's possible they're doing something more complicated.
>>110784105
also mind uploading them to see if some other have better luck extracting the images from them?
>>110784216
He's talking about the Viz releases anon.
>>110784225
Good...
So that might be it.
>>110784234
They are possibly encoding and decoding through their application in the browser.
I'd bet on a simple XOR.
>>110784278
And the anime is Tuesday
>>110784082
The other Zodiacs call him Paris, as well.
>>110784234
The thing is that the browser might downscale the image before feeding the anon viewing it. But if it doesn't, that might be a way.
I doubt it would be this easy, though.
>>110784292
So is there a way to decode them that you know of? I'll let you tell me how to go about it.
>>110784386
I was just poking fun at how fujos latch on to anything.
>>110784043
Open some of those with a text editor and see if the header is the same for all of them (should be garbage, but equal in all files).
Actually, could you upload those, please?
>>110780853
i had no idea it was this bad.
Also:
>Until i hear you say "uncle"
What.
2edgy4me
>>110784479
Decoding them might be as easy as an XOR, but we must know the "key".
If you get the header and XOR against a normal .png or .jpg header, we might get this "key".
>>110784667
"Saying uncle" means giving up and begging people to stop.
>>110784683
God I hate Crapika so much.
>>110784493
Um... I was about to, but they've disappeared. Hold on, let me see if I can redo them.
>>110784710
You're over my head at this point man. When I get the cache reloaded I'll just upload them for you to play with.
>>110784747
>You're over my head at this point man
If I do manage to decode them (I'm not really a programmer, but know some C), I might try to write a program so you can easy to do all this automatically.
Help is appreciated, of course, after Viz anon uploads the encoded files.
>>110784683
Why did they censor her breasts?
I don't get why Ging would be considered a mercenary just because he donates some money.
I assume their thought it that all money for the fund is supposed to come from the mercenary companies the fund supports, but why wouldn't they be okay with accepting money from outside? Feels a bit silly to me
>>110784842
Alright, I did a test loading the viz manga pages with the cache folder on my second monitor.
THESE are the image files of the first two pages that come up for the manga (cover):
https://www.mediafire.com/?7th90bh7ha3czzi
It seems to me like they're compressed right out of the gate. Tell me what you think.
>>110784997
Yes, all compression/decompression might be done without your knowledge, so the files aren't ever on your computer. I will try having a look...
>>110783814
Are you from Italy too?
Oh, I just downloaded the images.
They aren't encoded or anything!
>>110785065
We're talking about trying to get them in better quality anon.
>>110785076
This is already better quality than taking a screenshot
And probably the highest quality possible, if they don't downscale (which is possible)
>>110785065
>>110785095
>>110784997
I just renamed those to .jpg and they opened fine.
Could you upload the HxH chapter that way, instead of taking screenshots, please?
>>110785055
I'm from Italia but MEGA works just fine for me.
>>110785154
I did the same thing though, I renamed them to .jpg and was told the image was corrupted.
>>110785187
Weird, works fine here.
I even uploaded it: >>110785095
Simply renamed to .jpg and uploaded
>>110785154
Oh wait, nevermind. That was for what I thought was the image files, not these.
Ok, will do. Give me a few.
>>110785055
Yeah.
>>110785182
Nah, google it. They're fucking retarded.
So, all images are in the /tmp folder?
How boring, I wished to play with XOR a little.
Well, but this makes things simpler.
VizAnon, instead of taking screenshots, would you be kind enough and upload the original images directly? They will always be in your browser's temporary folder.
Thanks! It's of much better quality.
>>110785226
>>110785055
Mega blocks some countries?!
I think we should use something, else, then.
Also, why have one person upload and the other reupload to another mirror? Makes little sense.
To the person uploading the chapters directly, you could have a mediafire folder, so they all stay together. It's pretty easy to do.
>>110785386
Italy blocked Mega, not the contrary.
>>110785216
If possible, could you reupload the older chapters as well? (since some are clearly from print screens, example 343).
It would be super nice of you VizAnon
>>110785386
> mediafire folder
Yeah, that's the best option. Would end up looking like this: http://www.mediafire.com/?c5677ep2stgch
VizAnon, do you think you could do that? So we wouldn't depend on the MegaAnon any more.
Would also be a good time to put the other chapters through the direct method instead of the screenshot method, since it's of much higher quality.
>>110785386
Mega is good, it's Italy that's shit.
>>110785434
>>110785450
I just redid 347, looks much better.
Alright, I'm going to redo the other chapters and make a mediafire folder for them. Give me some time though. I'll let you know when I'm done.
There are efforts being made to release the old volumes of HxH:
Google 'kickthekitty.blogspot random hunter x hunter'
>>110785594
All right, thank you a lot for this!
Can we simply get your mediafire folder bookmarked from now on to get updates?
>>110785594
Doing gods work s(an)on!
>>110785615
Yes, I used to follow Kickthekitty franatically back then, but now it's moot. Firstly, it's a hell of an effort for them to do that. Secondly, Viz have all volumes from 1 to 32, digitally available, with great translation and perfect scans of the highest quality.
>>110785594
Thank you based anon!
>>110785594
Where did you have uploaded them?
>>110785740
I think he hasn't uploaded yet.
He will finish all chapters and put them on a mediafire folder.
>>110785705
>Viz have all volumes from 1 to 32, digitally available, with great translation and perfect scans of the highest quality.
Now we only await a wealthy anon to upload those then.
>>110785624

>>110785721
>>110785740
No problem guys, here is the link for the folder:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/ujfpyfxyv9a63/HxH_Viz_Releases
I'll upload the chapters when I'm finished.
>>110785594
>>110785851
Thank you!
I like how "actually pay to use the site" isn't even an option being considered here
>>110785851
Oh, sorry.
Fuck you Italia
>>110785851
Thank you.
>>110785968
My credit card doesn't work for international transactions (I'm not in the US).
And even if it did, I can't even access their app in my smartphone for whatever reason, says "invalid billing" or something.
>>110785968
I can't buy every manga I read and I'll never pay for digital shit anyway.
>>110785981
Use a proxy.
>>110785968
it's only jump series, and only currently running ones, yeah? do they even keep a backlog?
when I can get hundreds of thousands of chapters of manga online for free, paying to get slightly-better translations of a half-dozen new chapters is silly.
>>110785968
I buy the physical volumes so I don't want to rebuy everything in digital.
>>110786053
>use a proxy
why? all you need to do is use google's dns (8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4) to bypass this kind of stuff
>>110785968
You can pay. Feel better?
>>110783814
>>110785055
>>110785182
>>110785386
use a proxy fratelli, works perfectly
>>110786053
>>110786748
>>110786891
>>110786959
Doesn't matter anyway, we are migrating to mediafire
>>110786748
Because you just need to hit a button if you use something like anonymox.
All HxH chapters have been re-done with higher quality and are now hosted on Mediafire:
http://www.mediafire.com/?ujfpyfxyv9a63
To any other anon's who feel like posting chapters if I have not done it yet, try and use the newer cache method as it provides better quality. I will update this folder every Monday with new chapters.
>>110785851
Thanks, man
>>110787904
I love you!
>>110787904
> I will update this folder every Monday with new chapters.
Great! I will keep refreshing every Monday.
Thank you so much for this, anon. Marvellous work.
Also guys, when you make threads can you please start writing "Hunter x Hunter" to start off with? Searching the catalog can be horrible at times, and just two nights ago we had three active hxh threads
>>110788115
My bad, I don't use to create many threads, but from now on, I will always put "Hunter x Hunter" in the subject or in the post itself.
>>110787904
Thank you based anon.
>>110787904
Grazie
That puts a end to that. Half of the discussions in manga threads are generated by waterpanda and niggastream mistranslations.
>>110788599
I wish I could be more patient for the Viz chapters only, but I always end up reading niggastream and waterpanda for a sneak peak. It causes so much confusion in the threads.
I will try my best to read only Viz from now on.
>>110787904
Quality is much better, indeed. This new method is great. Thanks.
>>110788599
>>110788759
Ahh that's half the fun though. Gives us something argue about for a week.
So the Knee-guy's name is Mascher and who knows is Marione, Lolibot or Beyond's lover.
Is good to know because in mangapanda version was called Marshall, what are they thinking?
Are these also present in the Japanese version?
Are these commentaries from Togashi himself?
>>110788920
I wish the quality could be even higher, but Viz compresses these images to death right at the start. It's kind of aggravating actually.
>>110787904
>Being awesome and uploading the chapters
Did you join the spreads? Minds if I bug you for a pair of unjoined images? (I want to test something)
>>110788599
What do you mean? Mangapanda and Mangastream both said things to that effect.
The idea that it was a mimicking power came from the spoilers, and the spoilers alone.
>>110789058
I can, which ones do you want?
>>110789098
>h ones do y
any works. But all if you have the time.
>>110788599
>>110789070
Actually, the doubt still remains, slightly.
What we couldn't deal with is why he has to take the physical attack in order to mimic it. Is it a condition or he simply needs to feel how the attack works first hand to better comprehend it? The former would imply a nen ability and the latter a natural ability.
>>110789058
>pair of unjoined images
What do you mean?
>>110788998
marione is the robot gril
I thought Golem was supposed to be a robot but apparently he's a guy in a suit?
>>110789035
> Viz compresses these images to death right at the start
Really?
I wonder if there is a way around that...
>>110788599
Viz's translation here is worse than Mangastream.
Why can he only copy punching abilities? Why not kicking? Can he not copy karate chops? What about stuff like Razor's nen balls? What if instead of a fist Leorio emitted a hammer?
Viz were invaluable at the start of this arc, when they were the only people able to translate the dense Togashi dialogue. Mangastream has now upped it's game, so Viz isn't as vital. Mangapanda still sucks.
>>110783519
Wait you unpack it to read it? You should just be using a program that can read rar/zip to read your mango.
>>110789344
Well, we'd have to get the RAW and know Japanese to be sure. Maybe it says "punching" in the original? (even though this is unlikely...)
>>110789098
>do you mean?
>>110789211
By 'joining' I meant that (for example) c346p03 and c346p04 being two files and our kind Viz Anon having combined those images before uploading.
Since we are working with very compressed images to begin with I just wanted to check which method VizAnon used to join the images.
There are lossless methods of joining jpeg images (like jpegjoin, make sure you get the 2014 version of the application).
>>110789464
Oh, I see! Nice idea. We should aim for the highest quality as possible.
Unbeknownst to Ging, Leorio and palpating go way back
>>110789464
Here ya go:
https://www.mediafire.com/?vi4sep48clxs2wa
>>110789464
Wouldn't simply png be a better choice then?
>>110789464
I used Irfanview to join them, if you know a better method though have at it and let me know for future use please.
I wonder if there could be a way of getting uncompressed images.
Any ideas, progr/a/mmers?
>>110789653
>https://www.mediafire.com/?vi4sep48clxs2wa
Thank you, I will come back soon with the result and if it made any change I will post what I did.
>>110789445
Pretty much anon.
Anyways here is the raw page now we need an anon that can into runes translate it for double check purposes.
>>110789258

Uncompressed images never even make it over to the computer in the first place though, that's the problem. The only thing that's ever received are the compressed images.
That's what we were looking for in the cache. We found the raw images in better quality, but they were still compresses.
>>110789805
>We found the raw images in better quality, but they were still compresses
You did?
We might be able to decompress them without losing quality.
>>110789890
Well what I have in the chapter post are the raw images. All we did was rename them to .jpg from a nonextension.

It's actually kind of funny how different the fanbase perception can be based on translation.
Like, for example, when people used to debate over Gon's age.
>>110784854
nipples are lewd
Aren't there any Viz scanlations of the Chairman Election Arc? The only translations I've read are utter garbage, I'm sure there is a good or at least acceptable translation out there but I can't remember where I read it.

There are some loss of details in the joined spreads. (Se the image)
Atm my ordinary method doesnt work to join the images however so as anon suggested, I say we go with png for the spreads.
Ill upload all the spreads as joined and optimized pngs in a moment, then VizAnon could just add/replace the zips in his mediafire.
>>110790049
The other anon in this thread said he was going to try and look into a similar method earlier, I don't know if he's still doing it though since we found the images in cache.
>>110790079
>Gon's age
It's so weird, we all know he has to be 14 but Togashi just doesn't seem to be consistent with aging. He had the doctor say Gon was 12 aright after CA, but he should have been 13.
Is Togashi doing this on purpose or did he just fuck up?
>>110789163
>he simply needs to feel how the attack works first hand to better comprehend it
This maybe the case since he is implied to be a nen genius
>>110790278
Ok, from now on should I just rename all the files to png instead?
>>110789070
At least Viz did the whole "Pariston set the fake attack" a million times better.
>>110790307
Gon was 12 in the beginning, right? Two hunter exam passed, he should be at least 14 by now.
>>110790278
Yes I posted the wrong compare image.
>>110790398
Yes, we all know this should be the case. What I'm saying is Togashi is the one who is inconsistent about it in the manga. He gives Gon (12 when he should be 13) an age we know has to be incorrect. I was just wondering why he chose to do that.
>>110790398
>>110790307
>>110790497
No. Gon was 11 at the beginning of the manga. The JP raw at the beginning of the Hunter's Exam says "Not yet 12". Hunter's Exam took place in either Jan or Feb. Gon's birthday is in May.
You can go look at the raw yourself.
>>110790497
He probably forgot, he possible think that Gon was 10 when the manga started or something like that.
>>110790372
Not needed, the only files that should be changed are the spreads. The other jpeg-files should be as they are.
The thing is when a image is saved as a 'lossy' image type (jpeg) the image looses details. Thats why you should never open up jpeg files and then save them as jpeg.
You should (if you only have jpeg files to work with, which is our case):
a) use special tools which doesnt re-encode the jpeg. jpegjoin is such a tool.
b) save the combined new image as png, since it isnt a lossy format.
If we only care about quality and not file size both these options are just as good. Option a however are superior if we want a lower file size.
However I have some problems joining them using option a, so we should go with option b for now, optimized pngs. There will be ~1 mb difference in size, which wont bother anyone anyway.
Ill upload the joined images soon.
>>110790739
"???? 12 ??" means "I'll be 12 soon"

I don't know where the idea that Gon is 14 even came from, there's no way he's older than 13 since the election takes place in august.
http://www.geocities.jp/little_gate/01-06-02.htm
>>110790750
Well, going by that Gon was 11, time actually passed pretty fast. Ant Arc took a few months at best. I think he turned 12 sometime during the Celestial Tower arc. By the end of the Ant Arc, May hadn't passed yet, so he was still 12 when that ended.
>>110790964
See above, he was close to 12 in the beginning of the manga and two hunter exams passed since then.
>>110790424
>>110790858
Side note: yes this is a tad silly, but somehow I managed to screw up the compare image twice...
This, I promise, is the proper compare image...
>>110778633
You'd think Togashi would try and make more games with his story considering he likes games quite a lot.
>>110791016
He didn't turn 12 until much later. Hunter's Exam is in January or Feb. Killua's Hunter Exam took place January of the next year.
>>110790964
If the election took place in August, then he's 13 now.
>>110790964
The translation in the 2011 anime is responsible for that. When Gon and Killua first meet it's stated they're 12 years old. So, if I'm using that as a base, I would assume in the manga they would be 14 now since it's been exactly two years.
I didn't know he was actually "close to twelve" in official manga translation. That still means he was 13 when the doctor said he was 12 though.
Oh well, I'm just going to assume Togashi forgot a detail or two. It's not that important.
>>110791096
No.
Jan-Feb: Hunter's Exam (11)
Find Killua Arc
Summer Months: Celestial Tower (12)
September: York Shin
After: Greed Island
Killua's Exam in January
Ant Arc
August: Election (13)
In actuality, there have been 3 Hunter exams since the manga started.
The last one was just finished in chapter 346.
Who fucking cares if he's 13 or 14?
>>110791194
What about the new hunter exam and the one month time skip?
>>110780370
Sounds fun
>>110791331
The Hunter's Exam is in the beginning of the year. He might be close to 14, but he shouldn't be there yet.
>>110791331
then it's February at the latest
>>110789609
Togashi is truly a genius
>>110791194
Ah ok. Thank you anon.
>>110791325
We're just talking, feel free to bring up another topic.
>>110791331
He would still be 13. 14 in a few months (birthday is on 5/5).
>>110791388
Indeed and he said "close to 12" in the beginning of the manga, he's either 13 close to 14 or just 14.
>>110790372

Started uploading the fixed chapters, just download them and upload to your mediafire.
I will remove the files after a few hours so everyone knows your mediafire is the proper one.

It's interesting because Gon's age has been thought to be an inconsistency on Togashi's part. It's actually not. We just got some shit translations.
>>110791662

True, my bad.

i just caught up to the most current chapter last night. Insanely stoked. Does anyone think ging will be the main focus of this arc or do you think gon will make it to the continent?
>>110791737
I know, seriously. Even the anime got it wrong, they had Gon just twelve years old here (yes he actually said 12 so it wasn't a mistranslation in the subtitles).
Why is this so hard to get right?
>>110791808
It depends on: >>110789023
If those are indeed cannon and official notes (written by Togashi himself), then Gon will be back due to pic related:
> Will Gon and friends be up to the challenge?
Otherwise, in case it's Viz doing, then we aren't sure.
>>110791923
nice find, id like to see the phantom troupe appear and hunt down some crazy exotic creatures
>>110791808
I think Gon will be a major part of the arc but we just don't know how yet.
>>110791923
This pretty much seals it for me. And why would they go to the trouble of promoting the return of HxH with "He's Back" if Gon wasn't going to be a part of it?
>>110789344
Mangastream changed translators for that chapter and even used 2 instead of just 1.
The guy who did the previous chapters of this arc wasn't one of them.
>>110785095
can anyone ripped the chapters 55 to 68 of World Trigger from Viz too?
>>110791633
There all the files are fixed and uploaded (The only thing I did for chapter 343, 345 and 347 were renaming the files and archive, no changed images).
Will remove in a few hours as promised.
>>110792346
Alright, I've got them thank you. You can take them down whenever you want to.
>>110791923
Not to talk about it being odd to make a manga where they spend every single arc training, only to drop the MC off to focus on someone who's already mastered everything.
>>110792089
People have been speculating about the prince having some connection to the Genei Ryodan, either that or they'll follow to kill Kurapika to get rid of the nen beast from either Abengane or Chrollo. Most likely Abengane as having the nen beast stick to whomever the nen was drained from is a pretty weak condition for Abengane. All we really know about it though is that it came out from the fire, sucked the bomb of Abengane and stayed on him.
>>110791325
Gon and Killua should be hitting puberty right about now, but they're still the size of young children.
Eh, guess they're late bloomers as far as physical growth goes.
>>110791633
>>110792431
The only thing you need to think about in the future:
when editing any of the images somehow (like when joining two of them), save those as png.
Also if you want to be fancy use pngwinout or pnggauntlet or something to optimize the png-files.
Removing them now since you got them.
>>110791872
Yeah. It's kind of interesting that the anime got it wrong too. But the anime changed a lot of stuff, so it's not that surprising.
>>110792089
I had an hypothesis about this yesterday, that connected some dots. It's pretty rough though, be warned.
This is how it superficially goes:
- Sheila knows Ickshonpe.
Rationale: she has a bag which appears to have a drawing of Ickshonpe's face and her ears are similar to his, she also has some electronics.
- Sheila knows Ging
Rationale: she has a mutual friend with him: Ickshonpe, which is also one of the G.I. creators. Also, her D Hunter Book is from Don Freecss, a relative of Ging.
- Sheila got her book from Ryuseigai or the Ryodan
Rationale: when the Ryodan killed the Kurata clan, they left a not saying: "We reject no one, so take nothing from us.". That implies they were getting something back, that had been stolen. That could be the D Hunter Book, that Kurapika gave to the elder of the Kurata clan.
- The D Hunter Book wasn't a mere copy of "East - by Don Freecss" like the other copies we see around. It was either the original volume or another book that wasn't East.
Rationale: the Ryodan wanted to get it back, so it was important. Supposing that, indeed, they were after the book.
So, with all that set, we get that the Ryodan has some connection with Don or the DC, at least, which makes it possible that they will be going there as well.
These are all unpolished and raw ideas, but I do believe Sheila is still important some way and that she is related to lots of characters. I would bet we are going to see her again. If anything, we are sure she wanted to become a Hunter due to the book and she knows Kurapika, so that makes her quite important.
>>110792520
Alright, I'll do that in the future. Thanks for what you did today anon. We got something pretty good going now out of this.
>>110792494
i want to see kurapika execute that guy, but i bet some uproar happens if he does that and it would split the kakin and v6.
Do you think Killua will show any conjuration ability?
When Biscuit trained them she made him do training in the categories next to transmutation too, enhancement and conjuration. So far he hasn't had any use of conjuration though.
Latest viz chapter where?

It would be a nice way to link the Ryodan with the DC, however it would raise the question of how did the Ryodan learn where the book was.

>>110793200
Ging is actually a panda. It's his true form.
I thought this was Miura page. All those lines on the monsters are really his style.
Maybe people threw the first copy away at Ryuseigai thinking the book was garbage?
Or perhaps Don left the first copy there for whatever reason? Maybe he was born there? Who knows...
>>110793200
It's not just a panda toy, it's the ability of the Secret Zodiac Bear
>>110793153
If it was indeed an original volume, they could have followed the aura that must be in it? Talented leave their aura in objects when it's something of value, even if unconsciously.
Another possibility is that they found Sheila and extracted the information from her. But that would be sad, since that would mean she isn't coming back.
