Hunter x Hunter Chapter 356 Discussion

Seeing Hisoka getting such a hard beating its honestly kind of surprising, Chrollo has completely overpowered him at this point, will be interesting to see whats coming

i am still shocked at just what little regard those two have for the audience. granted its the underground and everyone probably signed a waiver but still. the tone almost rivals that of the chimera arc in terms of the darkness.



Lool that's hilarious! it looks childish tbh, it's not really dark when their heads are being pop off like dolls with not one drop of blood. Lol this is pretty tame if anything.



You're technically right in saying the tone is dark, interms of what the two characters are doing to the audience, but visually its PG 13 at best.

wow what an epic chapter one of my favorite hxh chapters so far

Now Hisoka has lost his legs, still better condition than Netero though,



Honestly, I really hope Hisoka will die after this fight, I don't really care about Kuroro both of them can die too as long as Hisoka die.



But if Hisoka alive after all of this is okay too, hoping is free...

I was initially on team Chrollo, but after the amount of damage Hisoka's sustained, I'm beginning to pity him. Ofcourse, Hisoka could be resourceful enough and find some way in using his nen to return the flow of battle to his side, but I doubt he'll win after losing large potions of his limbs. Either Hisoka dies, the battle ends in a draw or a third party intervenes...

                        Damn, this fight really dragging. Hisoka taking a loss at his leg as well...





Dragging? Really? C'mon now. It's only been like 3-4 chapters. That hardly qualifies as "dragging."



Different perspectives, not many people are able to keep up with the powers, so they're reading through something alien. I can understand them being overwhelmed.



This is why you go back and reread chapters.



No time, and it might not help them. I mean I'm pretty sure many here have no idea what happened during the DC build-up and decided to skip it altogether, may not be surprised if they did the same with this fight.

It's been more than 100 pages/5 chapters for the fight. This being the 6th chapter.



It's dragging. More than half of it is just setup and explanations for Chrollo's power. Only significant thing to move it along was the last page of last chapter and this chapter.

As for Hisoka, he might die next chapter but he's definitely still alive now. This fight won't end with Chrollo getting out unscathed. If Hisoka wanted to he could have escaped any time and try fighting Chrollo with no such handicap but it's not his style (also it wouldn't be too interesting story-wise). I'm pretty sure that he will seriously injure Chrollo, this fight has been hyped by Togashi too much for it to end one-sidedly.

Sometimes I am amazed how HxH has more dialogue than Detective manga. Pretty sure if HxH being converted into Novel, all the dialogue is enough to make lot of volume. I see that you haven't read Gintama. I recommend it, it's better than Hunter x Hunter (although there is no villain as interesting as Hisoka there).
