Hunter x Hunter Chapter 311 Discussion

is it me or the art looks better ?

Strange chapter, really confusing. No Gon or Killua, and the King is probably going to die just because of poison. But Togashi is a genius, he managed to show that people are worse creatures than ants.

----------------------------------------

                        finally finally .....ITS OUTTTTTT

For those confused, the implication is that the bomb Netero used is going to kill the king eventually anyway, due to the long term poison effect that it causes. The rant about human cruelty was a little unrelated, but delivers the point that such a weapon (already an obvious parallel to our own nuclear weapons) was beyond even the imaginations of the ants. Main idea is that the king will die sometime which is pretty good because at this point he seemed unbeatable.

They're really driving home the Chimera Ants' doom aren't they. When the hell did this get so inevitable?

Why do they even want to gain time if the King is about to die ? Why didn't they just bomb him in the first place ?

They want to buy time since the king has Knuckle and Melereon (or whatever his name is). He could easily kill them, or a lot of other people for that matter, before he dies if they don't try to stall him. As for not bombing him in the first place, I can only guess that Pitou would know the bomb was coming since he/she was using his en at the time, which would have given the king time to get away.

especially coming from a guy who just did nothing and lived off his royalties and stuff for more than a year (give or take a few months)......And this time, no more sudden hiatus out of nowhere, pretty please.

How do you know he wasn't doing anything? Since he doesn't use assistants, he can't keep up the schedule of a weekly manga, which is the reason for all of the hiatus', so they don't really come out of nowhere.  For all we know he could have been using part of this last year to draw chapters and get ahead a little. I don't know, but I'm quite certain you don't either.

I'm stoked the series is back and I hope he doesn't go on another year and a half hiatus again at least until he finishes this arc off properly. Also I want to see some interrogation by the king it should be interesting.

*Sheds a tear* Finally its back. Not a bad chapter. Didn't think he would speed up this arc this fast though. Wasn't expecting this direction.



Man I'm glad I re-read some chapters, its been so long that I could have forgotten what has happen. Now last chapter makes sense. I thought that guy bested Yupi even with his weaker strength he shouldn't have lost, but with this revelation in this chapter. I see now since they help out the King, Yupi was also suffering from the poison.

Usually seems to always look better when Togashi returns from a hiatus, which is why people usually forgive him when he comes back.
