HXH got ridiculously gruesome after 75 episodes lol, talk about an adjustment in viewing expectations.
@maolfunction people be like "oh child friendly manga" looking at the volume 1 cover lol
@maolfunction like it doesn't go to the level of Berserk or anything, but
it does get dark lol
@MochaKoffee I am enjoying it, but there are some weirdly disturbing parts that make me go, "what?" regularly lol.
and that's excluding Hisoka's queer, but also pedophilic coding.
@maolfunction hisoka is a fuck yeah lol
chimera ant arc should be where you're at, i think, which is really, really good
alluka is basically togashi's apology for how shitty Miyuki was treated in YYH too
@MochaKoffee yeah, that's where I'm at. it's good, but togashi ramped up how graphic the kills are from Yorknew City
that's what I thought when her back story was more fully introduced, much better than being flung into a wall and never seen again
@maolfunction it really sucks that well-written trans characters are so rare in the medium.
rare footage of a trans power fantasy lol
@MochaKoffee oof, guess it's gonna be a while before I read past the ending of the anime lol
@maolfunction One Piece and HxH are now the only series still running in the magazine that began before the year 2014.
One of those is in its twilight years, the other deserves a rather large asterisk next to the word 'running', considering it hasn't had a new chapter in two years, lol.
i don't know what shueisha will do when OP finally ends
@maolfunction the worst part of HxH is getting caught up, and realizing this is never going to end:

Alluka is a fantastic character, and you can tell that Togashi did a lot of learning in between the two series.
