It's sad & hilarious that One Piece might end before Hunter X Hunter
- Thread starter Dale Copper
- Start date
seriously, I've reread what there is of it so far and it's so incredibly dense with information. I get why some may not like it but it's one of my favorite arcs from the series.
It'll never end. Which is why Gon meeting his Dad (the original goal) was good.
Hopefully Kurapika can get the final eyes and the Spiders will get dealt with in the next decade. Not too interested in anything after that.

I think week to week with hiatuses it can be a drag, but when you go back and re-read it it's pretty baller
How often does that have a new chapter?
Also, I wish that the Vagabond manga had an ending but it doesn't seem like that will ever happen either.
I don't think Togashi is going to live to finish Hunter x Hunter. In the event that he does end up getting too sick to finish I hope he puts together his plans for the story in some kind of bible and passes it off to a successor or two the way Toriyama passed off Dragonball to that nerd that does the Super manga.
It's serialized in Bic Comics which is released two times per month.
Yea, the build up has been incredible and the pay off will be worth the wait imo.
Chapter 345
Signature (署(しょ)名(めい)()()()()()()()(), Shomei) is the 345th chapter of the Hunter × Hunter manga, written and illustrated by Yoshihiro Togashi. Gon talks to Ging on the phone and informs his father that he is not able to bring any aura out. Ging replies to this by saying that while his (Gon's)...hunterxhunter.fandom.com
June 30th 2014, so over 6 years.
God, that just hurts my soul. Like seriously
I'm in the small camp of people that think Togashi should have just ended the series after he met Ging, that was a focal point of the series starting out after all. Of course I want more HxH like the next person, but having it dangled like a carrot on string, only letting you get a tiny nibble every few years, just is shitty. If he wanted to write even somewhat regularly, great, but if he knew he's wasn't going to do it even remotely consistently (and let's be real, he did since he's been doing this exact thing forever now), he should have just ended it and not drag out fans hopes/expectations. It wouldn't have wrapped everything up but it would be better than being led on forever, hoping this year will be the time we get crumbs.
Call it entitled or what you want, but that's how I look at it. After going through this for nearly 15 years now, it can make you a bit jaded.

Well you pretty much have to re-read half of it every time a new chapter comes out because of how many moving parts it has. It's insane.
The payoff that arc can bring could be unmatched.
Plus, Tserriednich is such a terrifying villain.
The manga's been a mess in recent times. Just walls of text, nearly unreadable.
Togashi should transition to a monthly manga, but even that is probably too much for him lol
Been saying for years that Togashi needs to just finish the series up as novels/light novels... It's either that or get someone else to do the heavy lifting for the art.
That or never really finish the series, which you know, if he's fine with that, then so am I.

It's still insane that Kochikame ran in Jump for 40 years without ever once missing a single issue until it ended
Without spoiling too much, if the Straw Hats come out on top of the current arc, there really isn't much above them in terms of power.
That debut date jump from 1998 to 2014 is a real indictment of their '00s output.
Hell, while not Jump examples, Hiro Mashima has started three whole series - and completed two of them - in the time that Hunter x Hunter has been going. They're not exactly short either.
I recommend watching this, even if you haven't seen the first video. It goes into why HxH keeps going on breaks.
Oh no. :(
Oh.
Oh no. :(
That includes some high profile stuff like Bleach, Black Cat, Ichigo 100%, Eyeshield 21, Death Note, Gintama, D.Gray-Man, Bakuman. Just stuff that didn't run 20 years. Naruto and Prince of Tennis also are large parts of their 00s output as they started in 1999. Their start of 90s output looks weaker than their start of 00s output, although end of 90s was very strong. Their start of 10s output is what causes that gap, that is stuff that got canned a lot.
I disagree.
There are ways that Wano can be liberated without Luffy beating Kaido in a 1 on 1. The Kaido + Big Mom alliance could break down, resulting in the two of them actually having their big show down brawl. Then the marines might show up, further weakening Kaido. We could see the straw hats take down a very weak and worn out Kaido. Leaving Luffy and the readers with the knowledge he never would have won if Kaido was at full strength.
It's kind of crazy that We Never Learn is now the fourth longest-running manga in Jump (if you exclude HxH). It probably has less than twenty chapters left, too...
Off topic, but I'm so happy Dr Stone has so much more gas left in it. It's my second favorite weekly read behind Chainsaw Man. (Everyone read chainsaw man damnit!)
Leorio is, just with very little (almost no) panel time as usual.
It's like
Berserk is the 3rd piece, when all of them end the world is doomed.
There were tons of big series during that time, it's just they tended to not go on forever. Super long series like One Piece and Naruto were never actually the norm in the first place, they've always been an anomoly. It's just that as this stuff was starting to get a signficant following in the west we had three such anomolies running concurrently
I wish Togashi would be comfortable with the idea of taking on a story supervisor role and letting other people create it (whether in manga or anime form).
I know Togashi has heath problems, and it's his creation, but as a fan I wish he would just draw the names/storyboards and let another artist take over.
Beyond that, I hope he's doing well.
Hunter x Hunter has been a great ride and if this is all we get - I'm fine with it.

Yeah I agree with you
i have serious doubts that even just one of the yonko (kaido) will be beaten this arc. But both of them? No way is that happening. Luffy and crew will still have many opponents above their level after this arc
What? Leorio is on the boat...
Gon and Killua could eventually become involved via Alluka.
Honestly he might be I can't remember, there's so many characters introduced and focus on the princes that it's hard to keep track.
That and it's been like 2 years since the last chapter.
The resolution of the current arc (or even the lack thereof) won't really change the fact that One Piece has finally started to elaborate upon and reveal information about the primary mysteries and plot threads that have only been teased/hinted at throughout the entire story, and the story progression is now actively driving towards finally bringing them all into play. It might take a few more years to actually get to that point, but One Piece is now resolving more loose ends than it introduces.
He is. He's just off-screen handling all the medical care with the Dog Zodiac
The lack of screentime for Leorio is a good thing because he's probably the only character who won't be slaughtered on the boat or dark continent.
Let's just say. the differences between the official vs unofficial ones, I wish Viz had started their free scanlations earlier
