OH LOL!

Totally forgot Gon was searching for his father and now that Ging is right in front of HIM LOL!

Was expecting them to meet after a long and hard search and now he's just standing across the conference room :D:D:D

Pariston seems the scariest character in the series so far. He must be the strongest man alive in HxH.

In physical strength/ nen? Naw. But he's definitely one of the most cunning bastards here.

Pariston is highly cunning but nothing indicates that he's particularly strong. Highly doubtful that his strength is that of Netero/Meryem/Royal Guards tier fighters.

In any case...lol this chapter is just O_o; I don't even know what to say. Everytime I think I have SOME idea of where the manga is heading it just flies off into another dimension or something. Blegh.

There's no chance the vice chairmain under Netero is not one of the strongest.

Have any of you ever seen/read Baccano? The author's goal was to create a cast of interesting and unique characters, and then "see what happens" when they collide with each other. Rather than have an intricate plot with every detail planned, he simply created situations where these characters would have to interact, and let the story write itself. The result was nothing short of amazing. It's one of those series where things are completely unpredictable, and you're giddy with excitement whenever two characters meet each other.

I think Togashi is doing something similar with HxH, but on a grander scale. He's created a wide array of unique and interesting characters, each with his own motivations. (Have you ever seen a character like Hisoka, or Chairman Netero, or even the Ant King in another shounen?) Rather than create a standard "overarching plot element", Togashi allows the characters to be driven by their individual goals and personalities, and simply throws them into different situations. After that, whatever happens happens. If Gon runs into Ging in a crowded assembly hall, then he'll do what he does, and Ging will do what Ging will do, whether it's anti-climactic or not.

It's an interesting formula, and it explains why we're so excited to see what would happen if Hisoka clashed with Ging, or Pariston met Illumi, or Netero ran into the Spiders, etc. When you mix in the fact that Gon, Killua, and (apparently) Leorio are getting stronger, and are accomplishing their goals + making new ones, the future seems bright. HxH is definitely an experiment, and it's had some rough points at times. But I, for one, would be surprised to see Togashi abandon what he's started in favor of a more traditional shounen plot.
Be someone significant.

I don't doubt that he's extremely good at what he does, but combat doesn't necessarily count for everything.

Besides, chairman Netero was UNREASONABLY strong after he went through his training. Like, you can tell by his fight with the King that he is leagues above other high tier hunters. Or, as a more concrete evidence, when you have Zeno Zoldyck testifying that Netero was completely out of his league, you KNOW that mofo is much stronger than pretty much anyone.

I highly doubt that whatever combat strength Pariston will be particularly relevant if the old geezer wanted to beat his ass down. That is not to say that Pariston isn't strong, but he definitely doesn't need to be one of the strongest to fit his current role

I think Zeno was referring to the younger Netero

I think there's a slight misunderstanding. It's true that netero was considerably weakened at the start of the chimera ant arc, compared to his younger days, BUT he underwent training and basically regained his strength.

I mean, look at the fight between Netero and the King. I really don't doubt that Netero gave the absolute best performance of his life in that fight. He himself said that it's been forever since he went up and fought someone actually stronger than him, implying that even in his weakened form, there wasn't anyone around him stronger than "pre-training Netero". "Post-training Netero" would just completely crap on high tier fighters including Kuroro, Hisoka and the likes. I mean what the hell are they going to do? If Netero decides to strike first it's instantly over.

Zeno never said he was better, just that Netero was the only one to ever escape him when he went to kill him and that was many years ago

I think you're talking about Netero and Zeno's GRANDFATHER (Maha). The whole chapter 264 was Zeno talking about Netero's strength and at one point, he mentioned that he and Netero are not equals at all.

Of course, none of that is as convincing of an argument as Netero's demonstrated skill itself. Pitou, a royal guard, could barely react to Netero using his attack and still got tossed away like nothing (though to Pitou's credit, he took almost no damage but the ants have hax defense rating).

A human could never touch Netero or even activate their ability fast enough before they get slammed.

i liked Onepiece and HxH both, followed them since their first started.

Both are one of the best mangas i ever read (and i read a lot of manga except all those stupid lolicon and/or all those underaged girls surrouding main character manga)

I liked Onepiece a lot and all those early chapters were so good, my favourite moment was when Mihawk fights Zoro, it was so intimidating and there were a lot of emotions going on but after that the manga keeps getting worse (but still very good)

IMO, HxH is a better manga overall, i like HxH Characters facial expressions so much just look at them and u just know/feel exactly how they feel.

About characters getting better and beat the crap out of bad guys etc. i mean what else can you do ? isnt that what u readers want/like ? just read the damn manga.... be grateful and thankful that u get a chance to do so, damn it.

Ok this manga is really damn good. Whatever happened during the hiatuses for Togashi worked wonders. I want to see what Pariston is really planning and what his nen abilities are because he has to be strong to be part of the Zodiacs. I want to know what happened to Alluka and if Killua will have to fight Illumi. Hisoka is obviously planning some clever ass shit. Kurapika and the Spiders got something goin on probably. Ging has his own plans.

Shit is gonna get crazy

How does this make any sense? Lots of people can sense Gon's healing from a long ways away. Ging seems to be unable to sense Gon's coming, and even when he got into the room and was too busy hugging Leorio, he was still not trying to get out of the room. Then when he's finally discovered he acts surprised. Didn't see that coming? If he actually wants to meet Gon, then he should probably man the fuck up and make a good first impression. If he doesn't, then gtfo. inb4 torn between decisions. He's been decisive enough to stay away from his son every step of the way, even when he was unconscious, and never showing any signs of concern. There's no reason for him to start now, he's not that kind of person.
