Imagine the girl with the cell phone hatsu just used it once because her criteria directed her to Chrollo, who then managed to steal her ability after going on a fake date like he did with Neon LOL
The way this story just keeps getting better and better is insane. To think that we're only 6 chapters in since the hiatus and THIS MUCH has changed?? It feels like such a treat that we're getting many more chapters. I'm really excited to see what Togashi has got planned, even though I fear for the fates of many fan favorite characters...
Chrollo about the hatsu " lovey ghost writer " in chapter 104 : " The fortunes takes the form of a poem with four or five quatrains, each quatrain corresponds to a week of the current month " Shizuku in the same chapter about her prediction which contains 2 quatrains : " i will die next week, i only have quatrains for the first two weeks ". More than 2 weeks have passed since the prediction. So it is no longer active. If shizuku dies, it will have nothing to do with the prediction. You should read the manga in hardcover version. The scans on net are those of the jump pre-publication, so with the togashi's drawings before retouching and with the amateur translation from the time the chapters were released...which explains the urban legend “ Togashi can’t draw”.
Hinrigh did tell the Troupe the transmitted would revert. The bigger the object, the faster the nen runs out and he told the troupe it would last about 2 hours in 398
The way togashi setting this arc up will make The Black Whale inevitably become a big nen war zone and a massive bloodbath where eventually all hell break lose. We're definitely going to have an all out World War 3 on every side in the ship that's going to consequently cause a titanic sinking situation before reaching the dark continent. The bomb is ticking and Pandora box is waiting to be opened...
We can see that happening from the looks of it. A lot of people we're hyping up the dark continent, saying how dangerous and savage the creatures are there but their true and worst enemies aren't in a far away continent... humanities worst enemies are within themselves and people inside the ship.
She isn't with him and all happens fast the time he killed her and the time soldiers found her seems like happens in the same day so impossible doing it
@@carrowroads2712 bonolonov disposes of her body, transforms into her, and says to the blood guy that it was the real Hisoka, and that they should split up
Skill Hunter being able to upgrade based on his thieving feats is SO dope. He gained a bookmark last time and i was wondering how he did that. Instead of stealing an ability in particular it seems like he’s looking for a way to make skill hunter more efficient and dangerous.
Bruh if this guy sheds his limits, how is anyone going to be able to beat him ? What kind of upgrade would he even get ? The bookmark is already laughably op considering the starting state of skill hunter that we have seen. Like seriously, how is anyone gonna be able to defeat him ? Having his nen catch up to his brain is scary as hell. We've already seen how when pissed off and bloodlusted he can make someone like Hisoka look like a kindergartener that can't fight to save his life. Lord hope that he doesn't get those 3 treasures.
@ yeah that’s what I’m saying. I think people are getting too hung up on the concept of Chrollo trying to copy a nen ability to perma kill Hisoka. No, Chrollo is one more Skill Hunter hack, like the bookmark, from being virtually unbeatable. He fought Killuas father and grandfather simultaneously to a draw with no bookmark. He killed Hisoka with tbh low diff with one. One more way to supplant his conditions and it’s over.
@@Tyler_Frenzy I got the pretty opposite impression from that fight. Chrollo dominated but Hisoka showed tactical genius to even make that fight not an insta kill. Hisoka gave every advantage to Chrollo and still showed up unafraid, whereas Chrollo doesn't ever want to fight him without 100 contingencies in place. Hisoka is no longer fighting him handicapped by giving him every advantage for a greater challenge for himself. He doesn't care about his duel with Chrollo anymore, he just wants to kill them all. I think all this backstory and how the fight played out is the death flags being raised heavily and Hisoka is going to kill them all not in honorable duels, but just killing them efficiently as a way to spit in Chrollo's face for not giving him what he wanted.
5:53 Hinrigh DID say on Chapter 398 that the transmitter would turn back into its original form once the nen is depleted, and that it should take around 2 hours for that to happen.
"The funeral for Halkenburg is gonna be a funeral for everyone who ISN'T Halkenburg" Gold 😂 Knowing Halkenburg is alive and will probably be one of the few ones who're gonna survive HIS OWN funeral, this sounds even funnier
@@Riddle_Central. He didn't exactly die... He's still alive, but not in his own body, and not many people know about it. His original body died though. So these people who are attending the funeral all believe he's actually dead for good, which is far from the truth.
If Nobu's sword was a conjured item he should be able to dismiss and recall it at will. Feitan also describes it as being hastily made which seems to point to it being a real sword though maybe Nobu has an ability that helps with crafting weapons since I have no idea where the facilities to make one would be on the ship.
maybe he can conjure swords but those swords are permanent. it'd require more aura than normal but not being able to dismiss the sword is also a limitation that makes it stronger
I immediately thought of Kurapika's training, where his teacher told him that conjured objects should have special properties, not be something normal. You can't conjure a sword that can cut anything, as that violates nen rules; you can, however, conjure a really sharp sword, but that would be dumb because why not just get a normal sharp sword? It being a condition for Nobu would make sense. Yes, it's just a sharp sword... but that's straightforward and dumb just like the person of Reinforcement class that he is. Another condition might be related to his lack of skill with Emission: the sword can't leave his possession or it disappears and he has to conjure a new one. It's much more likely to be a normal sword though. The idea that he had to blacksmith a proper sword is incorrect though. So long as it's reasonably sword-shaped and sized, Nobu can just use Shu on the edge to make it sharp, the same way Hisoka does with playing cards. All he has to do is rip a piece of steel off the ship and grind it down a little to an approximate shape.
@yonkage Speaking of Kurapika's mentor, I also seem to recall that the more familiar you are with an object, the easier it is to conjure. Nobunaga seems to be with his sword 24/7, and he is often seen grabbing its hilt.
Chrollo is going to have to be on guard this is the biggest like V from cyborg punk 2077 trying to steal the relic. This war with the mafia is about getting bloody
@@daveshotchicken3 I doubt it will be easy for Chrollo because at the pace Tserriednich is progressing, he will be a tough nut to crack and Chrollo will need to kill him to get those treasures.

Lmao just like Ponzu and Pokkle. And this is why I love HxH. Togashi aren't afraid of killing characters so the stake and sense of dread is always there. It also make the characters alive and the way he wrote HxH is peak writing.
That scene with them climbing the stairs in the outer layer of the Black Whale No. 1 gives me massive Blame vibes, I wouldn't be surprised if Togashi had read that manga and got inspired to make some crazy giant machinery complete with an OSHA violating staircase
Togashi: Nah, there's not enough complication in this arc yet. Let's add in a grand heist, and also split up the Troupe and have them all hunted one-by-one like a horror movie.
@@PraiseYeezus The narrator said it himself lol. It's the same in heaven's arena where's there's a lot of people, but he still can't find "that person in there" he's been looking for quite some time.
If chrollo does ultimately end Hisoka, I NEED a panel of him explaining to an enemy before he ends them "Bungee gum has the properties of both rubber and gum"
Never have I enjoyed such a chapter in a long time. The succession war was complicated enough, let alone adding the phantom troupe to the equation with their treasure hunting quest. Everyone is now hunting everyone.
He's batman to our jocker in the story,hisoka, and he's the devil to our jesus in the story,kurapika And if you look close you could see that feitan is basicaly the penguin......york new is new york that means its gothem too......etc
1. I lean towards Nobu smithing a new sword. That's because Feitan quips that it was a "rush job". But even if not conjured, Nen can still be involved to account for how quickly Nobu replaced it. 2. The oyster turning back into a transmitter is probably just the conjuration effect running out. He said in 398 it would revert in about 2 hours. The reversion happens before the scene revealing Lynch's corpse, so it likely wasn't because Hinrigh decided to deactivate the effect. That said, Togashi is flexible in showing the order and times of events.
One of the lowkey cool things Togashi's done with the last few chapters is by establishing Halkenburg's funeral we have this sort of signpost to build the chronology for these Phantom Troupe/Mafia chapters. It's also another example of how wonderfully interconnected the world of the Black Whale is for this arc, events resonate from the lowest tier to the highest and vice versa even if they're appear world's apart -- really helps build that metaphor for society that Togashi is painstakingly constructing with the Succession War.
I just assumed Chrollo's special upgrade to his book would be to allow him to steal someone else's power without needing to satisfy most or even all of the prerequisites . Then all he'd have to do is steal Hisoka's ability and kill him so that his Bungee Gum can't bring him back to life. I guess it could also be the ability to literally steal someone's life or soul once certain conditions are met.
On the opposite i think that yes it is complicated but it has so many ways it can go and be satisfying, way more that you had in chimera ants... Eg: you can have marayam, wobble or tserridnich as beyond child and it would fit nicely with the situation that was setup. You can have hisoka kill quoll or being killed by quoll and then quoll killed by kurapika and both would be coherent and satisfying...
I feel like Hisoka and Chrollo killing each other is the most obvious and maybe best narrative choice. Although, it almost feels too predictable for Togashi.
If anything, we're getting at least 30 chapters. Togashi already build up a buffer of 15 chapters so we will be getting hunter hunter chapters for quite a while
We’re absolutely not getting 30 consecutive chapters lmao. I’m hoping we get 20 tho. Those last 10 are still being written so we can expect a break after 20. Although it shouldn’t be very long considering Togashi is feeling better now.
if i were to interpret the panel with the face i'd say most likely is not about him but of the troupe. Alternatives are in place, the spider will go on.
Now that Chrollo is not looking for a « person with a certain ability », but the ideal partner to perform his ultimate heist, it is not excluded that the person he looks for is Kurapika, because the Kuruta is looking for a way to stop the succession contest. Of course there are a lot of other possibilities, but I so wish to see Chrollo and Kurapika « negotiate ».
Damn the troupe for as much I love them, they’re sloppy sometimes, underestimating their opponents, Morena’s Family are trash but the other two carry themselves with some sense of professionalism and probably won’t take any slight even a losing a member lightly from anyone, they might not be as proficient in Nen but they definitely have the numbers and wont go down so easily like the York New city gangs.
yeah... they are quite reckless and for good reason. They are essentially the final boss of any black list hunter or anyone hunting criminals and are considered A rank in how difficult they are to capture / kill. And we were already primed to expect a fuck up sooner or later when bono quiteclearly stated that he doesn't have a head for startegy , and now we see why he says that.
The Kakin treasures explain why the Princes are so powerful. I think they use the power of previous sacrificed Princes to energize the Kakin royalty before recollecting and enhancing its own power. Imagine how much more powerful Chrollo will become with that? Either that or Chrollo’s nen ability strengthens depending on how valuable the things he steals are.
The mere logistics of having the sewage ABOVE level 5 is a nightmare. You'd either need to pump level 5's sewage upwards (which is inefficient), or you can leave the people there without sewage, so their grey water would just pile up, which doesn't seem to be happening. So the other option would be for them to have a separate sewage system. Perhaps not as advanced.
@@notKevinFeige guess what. I used to be a marine engineer (3rd), and I was the one responsible for the sewage system (amongst lots of other things). And yes, the sewage DOES indeed go into the ocean/sea, but not directly. Ships are forbidden from dumping their sewage while they are docked. But let's say that their world has different laws and stuff. The 5th level will be below the water level, so it will still need some sort of pump to make enough pressure, so the grey water will go OUT of the ship instead of come into it through the pipes.
I bet Chrollo already has a post-mortem Nen ready since he's already resolved to die. I think it is something that will massively boost the rest of Spider. 15:33 Also, this was more similar to Isaac Netero's face before he killed himself to activate Poor Man's Rose. A face of someone ready to die to take his enemy with him.
The Quollo panel gave me the strong feeling he's made a death nen vow, like transferring power the the other troupe members in case he dies vs Hisoka (possibly through the spider tattoos)
@@frantzmaurer9233i'm thinking shizuku for now. she is the least combat oriented and also weak physically. i'm thinking she could get overwhelmed by multiple mafia nen users if and when they decide to attack the troupe. Franklin ironically seems to be the safest . and bono is also obviously at risk being the closest to hisoka and the succession but i think he won't push his luck until chrollo is with him dor until phinx and feitan are in tier 1.
@@lecturhannibal5062 okay, but pedantry aside, yeah I can believe that this is a visual representation that a dead man’s switch on Chrollo’s Nen has been set.
I liked the detailed drawings in this chapter too, felt like something Kentaro Miura would have done. Also the Zen Buddha and Blade of Divine Guidance alongside the Seed Urn being Kakin artifacts was an interesting twist. Things are gonna go down in Chapter 407
I notice with nobunage, whenever he gets mad or interrogates someone, he always does a thing where he says something like, "speak without permission and I'll kill you, move and I'll kill you, try anything funny and I'll kill you!" Thay very well may be a condition for nobunaga to do a one hit kill on his opponents
@@FrenchUzi after all nen is multiplied through emotions, so nobu may have to reach a certain level in order to truly use his nen ability to a certain extent
@@FrenchUzi even thinking about what Franklin said in York new, uvo and nobu would work together at times on a job, but didn't like the fact they had to work together, but they were at their strongest when they did, again nen is powered up by emotions, so that reason could be why nobus power increased alot when he fought with uvo
@@FrenchUzi why nobus not the physically strongest, nen is the most important factor for him to potentially be one of the strongest nen users in the spiders after chrollo, especially since togashi sensei has left him the only spider to not have his hatsu ability explored, though may have but ambiguously
Crollo is not searching for Isoka but for a nen user with an hability that perfectly counters Isoka's capacity to revive, Molonelov has already told us that
Am I the only one that thinks post mortem nen is on the table for Chrollo? Dude has spent his entire life basically reinforcing the idea that the spider will go on after his death and how it will live on after him and all that. I wouldn't be surprised if hes planning on passing on his book or some other nen effect through the tattoos or something. Also he's leaving slot number nine blank on purpose, why?
spot 9 is left open because it is paku's number. He simply could not replace her because he couldn't get over her death , she was not only a childhood friend but also his crush / his first love it seems.
I feel like Chrollo probably wants that to happen but it won't. Hisoka is going to make him watch as he kills the rest of the troupe as revenge for denying him his honorable 1v1 duel he wanted.
I am curious to see how Chrollo snooping about in tier 1 will react to Kurapika. Will his plan change as now Kurapika a threat to the whole spider is on board ?
Two topics in question that were not very well explained, but which I will try to clarify: 1) The person Chrollo is looking for in this phone skill is not Hisoka, as he himself specified that he tried to look for this person in the celestial arena and did not find (before even fighting Hisoka), which indicates that his battle with Hisoka was a plan b, reason why his preparation was so complex. But it also indicates that this search is just a definitive metric for exterminating Hisoka, which is why he doesn't worry so much about the risk of finding him, even unprepared for battle (in addition to his contingency plan in case he dies, which seems to circumvent this possibility) 2) The treasure that Chrollo is looking for is a perfect way for him to evolve the Hunter Skill, and due to the danger of the theft, it indicates an extraordinary power - which answers the question that many had when Togashi released that nen strength rating list in 2022, in which he classified Chrollo only as a genius of nen, and not supreme. Well, it seems that this was a narrative factor for the character's own lore. I believe he will achieve this goal, because by achieving this, he can (probably) save weak princes from the war of succession (like Fugetsu and Woble)
Possible. I think Sheila betrayed Sarasa and the rest of the Troupe in their youth. She seemed sad but distant from the rest when Sarasa was discovered.
@timeread3099 maybe. But I'm willing to bet Sheila had involvement. Sheila was close to sarasa, and sarasa was close to the Troupe but the Troupe doesn't care about Sheila? Also if the phone was chrollo used was stolen from Sheila, maybe Sheila used that phone to find her pair and it ended up being thr mafia guy. Maybe he promised Sheila freedom for turning in Sarasa.
Nen World Review I would say Chrollo's face panel reminds more of Isacc Netero activating the poor mans rose, which honestly frightens me because it shows the resolve of Chrollo.
I am 100% sure the phantom troupe won’t meet their end by anyone but kurapika unless togashi has his character arc be letting go of revenge or something
I think they going down with Chrollo except for the new members. The spiders went through the trouble to get their leader back and Paku lost her life for it. They went against Chrollos wishes and i think he might fell guilty for still being alive
Actually I think they gonna meet their end by anyone who's NOT Kurapika (By hisoka most likely) which is totally Togashi's style of writing. He doesn't give you fated battles. He gives you the most unexpected yet satisfying ones. Hisoka ending the Troupe while Kurapika is unable to take his revenge would be a tragic ending for both Kurapika and the Troupe, and maybe even for Hisoka as well, if HE met his ending by Kurapika, after all!
Please guys do all read the official release. It pains me to see other mangas other than One Piece in front HxH on Manga Plus in terms views. Togashi deserves to know how many of us love his manga
6:40 I can guess how Bonelly killed Lynch He completely acted out of character to reveal himself, and then broke a shocked Lynch's neck as he spun to undo his Battle Cantabile Metamorphesen ability.
Mark my words. Whether Chrollo succeeds or not… he will die, and activate a post mortem ability that protects or empowers the spiders when he is gone. If his hatsu isn’t the source, then the seed urn will likely become the troupe’s official method of succession.
My personal theory, however far-fetched, as that Chrollo is attempting to steal Bungee Gum from Hisoka. Bungee Gum's superpowered state via post-mortem seems like it could count towards Chrollo's requirement of stealing "the equivalent of a National Treasure (2004)," though admittedly we haven't really seen the extent of its potential yet. Presumably, by stealing Bungee Gum he would not only prevent Hisoka from keeping himself alive, but have permanent access to it via Post-Mortem. I told this theory to some fellows of mine, and one of them replied that Bungee Gum only restarted Hisoka's organs and maintains his missing parts, not that it keeps him alive actively. I'm not too sure about this, but even if true Chrollo could ensure Hisoka can't bring himself back to life a second time if Bungee Gum has been stolen. If this is true, the upcoming battle between him and Hisoka would revolve entirely around trying to get Hisoka to touch the cover of the book. He's obviously seen Bungee Gum before, and it probably wouldn't be too difficult to get Hisoka to answer a question about it (i.e. "What are the properties of your aura?" " *BUNGEE GUM POSSESSES THE PROPERTIES OF-* "); Chrollo might have some sort of direct Manipulation ability that could control Hisoka's hands to an extent, but more realistically (given Togashi's writing style), I can see Chrollo basically going in for a kamikaze run and taking any damage necessary for Hisoka's palm to ever so briefly touch the cover of Bandit's Secret.
I like this idea a lot. He’s already killed him, since that didn’t work the next step would be stealing the Nen power he’s so proud off. This would crush the very idea of Hisoka, his whole existence is finding and breaking strong toys.
eh, definitely far fetched, it definitely doesn't fit the concept of a National Treasure and Hisoka died from suffocation, so once he got his heart beating again it's unlikely he needed it to keep him alive
This is entirely possible because we don't know all the requirements of Bandit's Secret because Chrollo said that adding the bookmark came with new restrictions which have been theorized upon but not confirmed. A thief wouldn't exactly mind adding 'I must steal something of proportional importance before I can steal and add a new ability with Skill Hunter'. It allows him to put a lot of extra effort to enable 2 skills used at the same time - without adding any extra liabilities on himself during actual battle. And one can imagine the thievery has to be on par with what Chrollo thinks of the usefulness of the Nen ability. And well, I think he is very impressed with Bungee Gum and with Texture Surprise - and so it wouldn't be too crazy to think that now he also needs to steal some treasure that he feels is of extreme significance. Might also be why it took him so long to get all the requirements for the Hisoka fight when the 2 most important abilities were literally standing next to him and another was also held by a friendly figure in Meteor city, maybe he needed to pull some heists.
Can you imagine that this could be how it ends? It might also fit with Hisoka's arc with Gon. Both of them now POWERLESS, and they have to train again- eventually meeting, and that's when their fight to the death truly begins.
@@sharpssharps7930 There's very little chance of Gon ever going after Hisoka or vice versa, not just because Togashi knows he needs to reach an ending and thus isn't likely to bring Gon or Killua back to begin with - but there's simply no hostility, it will not be fitting for Gon to ever fight Hisoka with an intention to end him and thus Hisoka will never be interested. If Chrollo pulls this off - Hisoka is gone. But he won't, the black whale is where the story of both the spider and Kurapika ends.
I appreciate that you went over the sword aspect. I remembered previously that he'd lost that sword during his previous skirmish and was wondering where it'd gone and how he got it back. I find Nobunaga a fascinating character that's heavily being developed.
Chrollo Might do Something to absolute reinforce, perhaps even as a Nen ability/curse, that no one should ever take anything from Meteor City. Using himself and the Spider as sacrifice after reaching such great heights of destabilizing or even ending a major nation. not my original theory
Chrollo actually has a spider outlined byt the lines in that wonderful panel. Its subtle but you can make it out where his nose is the spider body and his hair the legs.
bro how did you find an excuse to make me picture pokkle's body horror extravaganza courtesy of neferpitou all this time later, c'mon I can barely even watch that episode
My long shot guess is that Chrollo will try to steal Prince Tserri’s time breaking skill as a trump card to kill Hisoka but dies in the process allowing Tserri to mature in Nen abilities pissing Kurapika off because he stole his chance to avenge his Clan’s death
That would be crazy. Hisoka would 100 percent go after Tserriednich if that happens, and maybe team up with Kurapika again. I wouldn’t be mad, Tserriednich vs chrollo would be dope. it’s a good theory. It sounds plausible within the scope of the story so far, just the kind of thing Togashi would write. It also sounds pretty damn awesome lol, I hope you’re right.
Thats just bad writing if Chrollo dies to anyone except himself, hisoka, kurapika, killua or gon cuz he's more of a main character than even leorio. He carries the show for most people.
We have the exact same feeling! They deserve to die. But I'm also worried for them. Jeez! Only Togashi could ever do this! Your Favorite 3 (or 4) members, if I may ask?
So we BLAME! now? That sewer art was insane. This chapter gave me the same vibes as the staging rooms before the break in to the ants palace. Shit's about to go down and it's going down hard. Also, everything on my table has been f*cked right off.
The alternative plan to deal with Hisoka set up by Kuroro is explained below: The original plan is very clear that Chrollo wants to fulfill the condition of stealing something equivalent to a National treasure plus additional standard skill hunter conditions to evolve skill hunter to deal with HIsoka for good. But if he comes across hisoka before he achieves this very thing( and this is a real possibility) He wants to deal with Hisoka so that none of the other spiders becomes Hisoka's victims, so he wants to essentially deal with Hisoka by himself and even if he has to die. Now Kuroro has that one specific ability where he can Mark people and they explode, this is the original ability he used to defeat Hisoka the first time, It is known as Sun and Moon. If you have read chapter 351 to 357 you will have a good idea. Now the thing is that if you pay attention to Kuroro's words for his alternative plan and how he wants to achieve Hisoka's death: 1. The alternative is already in place: which means he has placed the sun and moon mark on himself and once sun and moon marks are placed on someone, those cannot be removed no matter what. Even if chrollo closes the book or does zetsu, they cannot be removed. 2. The spider will go on: means that he will die, so it means that he is ready to kill himself in a suicide bombing blast to kill hisoka, 3. It's the very idea that will instill the fear of the spider: Since the sun and moon is a nen after death ability, and being used by a nen user who is willing to sacrifice himself to kill someone to preserve his precious comrades(exactly in the manner original owner of the sun and moon intended) the blast that will generate from the sun and moon bomb that chrollo will activate when he is near hisoka will rival and surpass netero's zero hand. And that will forever put the fear of spider in the eyes of the general public so that they will always be afraid of the spider.
My biggest question while all the chaos on the ship is underway is, were is the hunter association? It would be cool if togashi does another flashback of the association deducting everything going on and them starting a counter operation to stop the ship from sinking.
They cant really do anything big on the ship because Kakin is still the big wolf in terms of government power in the black whale. We see an example of that when Cheadle (dog Zodiac) and Leorio took care of Prince Halkenburg but the Kakin doctors insist of taking everything. They made their little moves though back in chap 380, the Cow Zodiac already gave hints and warnings to the military of Kakin about the potential riot and paranoia in the ship because of many murders happening around.
Dude, we know where the treasures are and who protects them, it was leaked today. The seed Urn is in Tier 1, it's protected by Zepille, he made a fake of it in the auction arc, now he is protecting the original. The Buddha is being protected by Tonpa in a secret room of the Ministry of Justice in Tier 2, there is no doubt that it is the most difficult to obtain since the Buddha guards the exit barrier of the ship. Finally the sword is protected by Milluki in the back of the McDonald's in Tier 2. What a masterpiece Togashi is cooking 10/10.

It feels like such a treat that we're getting many more chapters. I'm really excited to see what Togashi has got planned, even though I fear for the fates of many fan favorite characters...

Shizuku being alone means her death poem is very close to being fulling realized
Chrollo about the hatsu " lovey ghost writer " in chapter 104 :
" The fortunes takes the form of a poem with four or five quatrains, each quatrain corresponds to a week of the current month "
Shizuku in the same chapter about her prediction which contains 2 quatrains :
" i will die next week, i only have quatrains for the first two weeks ".
More than 2 weeks have passed since the prediction.
So it is no longer active.
If shizuku dies, it will have nothing to do with the prediction.

The way togashi setting this arc up will make The Black Whale inevitably become a big nen war zone and a massive bloodbath where eventually all hell break lose. We're definitely going to have an all out World War 3 on every side in the ship that's going to consequently cause a titanic sinking situation before reaching the dark continent. The bomb is ticking and Pandora box is waiting to be opened...
That’s the Togashi Twist. The Whale never gets to the Dark Continent in the first place.
We can see that happening from the looks of it. A lot of people we're hyping up the dark continent, saying how dangerous and savage the creatures are there but their true and worst enemies aren't in a far away continent... humanities worst enemies are within themselves and people inside the ship.
a befitting intro for the Dark Continent

Skill Hunter being able to upgrade based on his thieving feats is SO dope. He gained a bookmark last time and i was wondering how he did that. Instead of stealing an ability in particular it seems like he’s looking for a way to make skill hunter more efficient and dangerous.
Bruh if this guy sheds his limits, how is anyone going to be able to beat him ? What kind of upgrade would he even get ? The bookmark is already laughably op considering the starting state of skill hunter that we have seen. Like seriously, how is anyone gonna be able to defeat him ? Having his nen catch up to his brain is scary as hell. We've already seen how when pissed off and bloodlusted he can make someone like Hisoka look like a kindergartener that can't fight to save his life. Lord hope that he doesn't get those 3 treasures.
@ yeah that’s what I’m saying. I think people are getting too hung up on the concept of Chrollo trying to copy a nen ability to perma kill Hisoka. No, Chrollo is one more Skill Hunter hack, like the bookmark, from being virtually unbeatable. He fought Killuas father and grandfather simultaneously to a draw with no bookmark. He killed Hisoka with tbh low diff with one. One more way to supplant his conditions and it’s over.
@@Tyler_Frenzy I got the pretty opposite impression from that fight. Chrollo dominated but Hisoka showed tactical genius to even make that fight not an insta kill. Hisoka gave every advantage to Chrollo and still showed up unafraid, whereas Chrollo doesn't ever want to fight him without 100 contingencies in place. Hisoka is no longer fighting him handicapped by giving him every advantage for a greater challenge for himself. He doesn't care about his duel with Chrollo anymore, he just wants to kill them all. I think all this backstory and how the fight played out is the death flags being raised heavily and Hisoka is going to kill them all not in honorable duels, but just killing them efficiently as a way to spit in Chrollo's face for not giving him what he wanted.
5:53 Hinrigh DID say on Chapter 398 that the transmitter would turn back into its original form once the nen is depleted, and that it should take around 2 hours for that to happen.
In real life, it took 2 years.

TEXTO V. TEXTO THE DAWN OF TEXT.
thats exactly who hes calling lol doesnt make sense for him to contact Hisoka rn
If Nobu's sword was a conjured item he should be able to dismiss and recall it at will. Feitan also describes it as being hastily made which seems to point to it being a real sword though maybe Nobu has an ability that helps with crafting weapons since I have no idea where the facilities to make one would be on the ship.
maybe he can conjure swords but those swords are permanent. it'd require more aura than normal but not being able to dismiss the sword is also a limitation that makes it stronger
I immediately thought of Kurapika's training, where his teacher told him that conjured objects should have special properties, not be something normal. You can't conjure a sword that can cut anything, as that violates nen rules; you can, however, conjure a really sharp sword, but that would be dumb because why not just get a normal sharp sword? It being a condition for Nobu would make sense. Yes, it's just a sharp sword... but that's straightforward and dumb just like the person of Reinforcement class that he is. Another condition might be related to his lack of skill with Emission: the sword can't leave his possession or it disappears and he has to conjure a new one.
It's much more likely to be a normal sword though. The idea that he had to blacksmith a proper sword is incorrect though. So long as it's reasonably sword-shaped and sized, Nobu can just use Shu on the edge to make it sharp, the same way Hisoka does with playing cards. All he has to do is rip a piece of steel off the ship and grind it down a little to an approximate shape.
I'm guessing that the mafia just had a spare katana and some chain lying around and Nobu did some welding.
Perhaps he transmuted a piece of metal to make it into a sword or he poured his aura into a piece of metal and “enhanced” its capability.
@yonkage
Speaking of Kurapika's mentor, I also seem to recall that the more familiar you are with an object, the easier it is to conjure. Nobunaga seems to be with his sword 24/7, and he is often seen grabbing its hilt.

And if you look close you could see that feitan is basicaly the penguin......york new is new york that means its gothem too......etc
1. I lean towards Nobu smithing a new sword. That's because Feitan quips that it was a "rush job". But even if not conjured, Nen can still be involved to account for how quickly Nobu replaced it.
2. The oyster turning back into a transmitter is probably just the conjuration effect running out. He said in 398 it would revert in about 2 hours. The reversion happens before the scene revealing Lynch's corpse, so it likely wasn't because Hinrigh decided to deactivate the effect. That said, Togashi is flexible in showing the order and times of events.
One of the lowkey cool things Togashi's done with the last few chapters is by establishing Halkenburg's funeral we have this sort of signpost to build the chronology for these Phantom Troupe/Mafia chapters. It's also another example of how wonderfully interconnected the world of the Black Whale is for this arc, events resonate from the lowest tier to the highest and vice versa even if they're appear world's apart -- really helps build that metaphor for society that Togashi is painstakingly constructing with the Succession War.

I don't think that Chrollo could survive again against Hisoka.
I just assumed Chrollo's special upgrade to his book would be to allow him to steal someone else's power without needing to satisfy most or even all of the prerequisites . Then all he'd have to do is steal Hisoka's ability and kill him so that his Bungee Gum can't bring him back to life.
I guess it could also be the ability to literally steal someone's life or soul once certain conditions are met.
This arc on the boat seems so unbelievably complicated I have no idea how it could possibly wrap up in a way that is satisfying.
That's on you. Your stupidity is not the author's problem.
i could understand it if this wasn't the same person who wrote Quimera Ants ending, so i have faith
On the opposite i think that yes it is complicated but it has so many ways it can go and be satisfying, way more that you had in chimera ants... Eg: you can have marayam, wobble or tserridnich as beyond child and it would fit nicely with the situation that was setup. You can have hisoka kill quoll or being killed by quoll and then quoll killed by kurapika and both would be coherent and satisfying...
Try having faith in Togashi…

Greetings from the UK. I’m glad I found this just before I went to sleep😊
Welcome!
Now that Chrollo is not looking for a « person with a certain ability », but the ideal partner to perform his ultimate heist, it is not excluded that the person he looks for is Kurapika, because the Kuruta is looking for a way to stop the succession contest. Of course there are a lot of other possibilities, but I so wish to see Chrollo and Kurapika « negotiate ».
Damn the troupe for as much I love them, they’re sloppy sometimes, underestimating their opponents, Morena’s Family are trash but the other two carry themselves with some sense of professionalism and probably won’t take any slight even a losing a member lightly from anyone, they might not be as proficient in Nen but they definitely have the numbers and wont go down so easily like the York New city gangs.
yeah... they are quite reckless and for good reason. They are essentially the final boss of any black list hunter or anyone hunting criminals and are considered A rank in how difficult they are to capture / kill.
And we were already primed to expect a fuck up sooner or later when bono quiteclearly stated that he doesn't have a head for startegy , and now we see why he says that.
The Kakin treasures explain why the Princes are so powerful. I think they use the power of previous sacrificed Princes to energize the Kakin royalty before recollecting and enhancing its own power. Imagine how much more powerful Chrollo will become with that? Either that or Chrollo’s nen ability strengthens depending on how valuable the things he steals are.
The mere logistics of having the sewage ABOVE level 5 is a nightmare. You'd either need to pump level 5's sewage upwards (which is inefficient), or you can leave the people there without sewage, so their grey water would just pile up, which doesn't seem to be happening. So the other option would be for them to have a separate sewage system. Perhaps not as advanced.
maybe it just goes to the ocean
@@notKevinFeige guess what. I used to be a marine engineer (3rd), and I was the one responsible for the sewage system (amongst lots of other things). And yes, the sewage DOES indeed go into the ocean/sea, but not directly. Ships are forbidden from dumping their sewage while they are docked.
But let's say that their world has different laws and stuff. The 5th level will be below the water level, so it will still need some sort of pump to make enough pressure, so the grey water will go OUT of the ship instead of come into it through the pipes.
I bet Chrollo already has a post-mortem Nen ready since he's already resolved to die. I think it is something that will massively boost the rest of Spider.
15:33 Also, this was more similar to Isaac Netero's face before he killed himself to activate Poor Man's Rose. A face of someone ready to die to take his enemy with him.

I always take those darker close ups of characters as their nen evolving. Something similar to post-mortem nen
Crollo is not searching for Isoka but for a nen user with an hability that perfectly counters Isoka's capacity to revive, Molonelov has already told us that
Am I the only one that thinks post mortem nen is on the table for Chrollo? Dude has spent his entire life basically reinforcing the idea that the spider will go on after his death and how it will live on after him and all that. I wouldn't be surprised if hes planning on passing on his book or some other nen effect through the tattoos or something. Also he's leaving slot number nine blank on purpose, why?
They don’t have another specialist in the spider… to just conjure the book without being a specialist would make it much less efficient
spot 9 is left open because it is paku's number. He simply could not replace her because he couldn't get over her death , she was not only a childhood friend but also his crush / his first love it seems.
I feel like Chrollo probably wants that to happen but it won't. Hisoka is going to make him watch as he kills the rest of the troupe as revenge for denying him his honorable 1v1 duel he wanted.
I am curious to see how Chrollo snooping about in tier 1 will react to Kurapika. Will his plan change as now Kurapika a threat to the whole spider is on board ?

Two topics in question that were not very well explained, but which I will try to clarify:
1) The person Chrollo is looking for in this phone skill is not Hisoka, as he himself specified that he tried to look for this person in the celestial arena and did not find (before even fighting Hisoka), which indicates that his battle with Hisoka was a plan b, reason why his preparation was so complex. But it also indicates that this search is just a definitive metric for exterminating Hisoka, which is why he doesn't worry so much about the risk of finding him, even unprepared for battle (in addition to his contingency plan in case he dies, which seems to circumvent this possibility)
2) The treasure that Chrollo is looking for is a perfect way for him to evolve the Hunter Skill, and due to the danger of the theft, it indicates an extraordinary power - which answers the question that many had when Togashi released that nen strength rating list in 2022, in which he classified Chrollo only as a genius of nen, and not supreme. Well, it seems that this was a narrative factor for the character's own lore. I believe he will achieve this goal, because by achieving this, he can (probably) save weak princes from the war of succession (like Fugetsu and Woble)
Waste management...everyone always assumes you're mobbed up
It’s also a common theme in the Italian-American mafia to be in “Waste Management”. Look at something like The Sopranos.
the "match" Chrollo got for that ability is Sheila, I'm calling it
Possible. I think Sheila betrayed Sarasa and the rest of the Troupe in their youth. She seemed sad but distant from the rest when Sarasa was discovered.
I wish we could get a glimpse of Sheila
@matheuscidral2680 yeah she is hot
@@artyparty8166 sheila seemed like the closest to sarasa, if anything sarsa death affected her the most
@timeread3099 maybe. But I'm willing to bet Sheila had involvement. Sheila was close to sarasa, and sarasa was close to the Troupe but the Troupe doesn't care about Sheila?
Also if the phone was chrollo used was stolen from Sheila, maybe Sheila used that phone to find her pair and it ended up being thr mafia guy. Maybe he promised Sheila freedom for turning in Sarasa.
Nen World Review I would say Chrollo's face panel reminds more of Isacc Netero activating the poor mans rose, which honestly frightens me because it shows the resolve of Chrollo.
I am 100% sure the phantom troupe won’t meet their end by anyone but kurapika unless togashi has his character arc be letting go of revenge or something
I think they going down with Chrollo except for the new members. The spiders went through the trouble to get their leader back and Paku lost her life for it. They went against Chrollos wishes and i think he might fell guilty for still being alive
Actually I think they gonna meet their end by anyone who's NOT Kurapika (By hisoka most likely) which is totally Togashi's style of writing. He doesn't give you fated battles. He gives you the most unexpected yet satisfying ones. Hisoka ending the Troupe while Kurapika is unable to take his revenge would be a tragic ending for both Kurapika and the Troupe, and maybe even for Hisoka as well, if HE met his ending by Kurapika, after all!
I can almost guarantee you that Kurapika will not kill Chrollo.

@@BM-mi2wyno I think he ended her in one blow so fast she did not realize
Mark my words. Whether Chrollo succeeds or not… he will die, and activate a post mortem ability that protects or empowers the spiders when he is gone. If his hatsu isn’t the source, then the seed urn will likely become the troupe’s official method of succession.
My personal theory, however far-fetched, as that Chrollo is attempting to steal Bungee Gum from Hisoka.
Bungee Gum's superpowered state via post-mortem seems like it could count towards Chrollo's requirement of stealing "the equivalent of a National Treasure (2004)," though admittedly we haven't really seen the extent of its potential yet. Presumably, by stealing Bungee Gum he would not only prevent Hisoka from keeping himself alive, but have permanent access to it via Post-Mortem.
I told this theory to some fellows of mine, and one of them replied that Bungee Gum only restarted Hisoka's organs and maintains his missing parts, not that it keeps him alive actively. I'm not too sure about this, but even if true Chrollo could ensure Hisoka can't bring himself back to life a second time if Bungee Gum has been stolen.
If this is true, the upcoming battle between him and Hisoka would revolve entirely around trying to get Hisoka to touch the cover of the book. He's obviously seen Bungee Gum before, and it probably wouldn't be too difficult to get Hisoka to answer a question about it (i.e. "What are the properties of your aura?" " *BUNGEE GUM POSSESSES THE PROPERTIES OF-* "); Chrollo might have some sort of direct Manipulation ability that could control Hisoka's hands to an extent, but more realistically (given Togashi's writing style), I can see Chrollo basically going in for a kamikaze run and taking any damage necessary for Hisoka's palm to ever so briefly touch the cover of Bandit's Secret.
I like this idea a lot. He’s already killed him, since that didn’t work the next step would be stealing the Nen power he’s so proud off. This would crush the very idea of Hisoka, his whole existence is finding and breaking strong toys.
eh, definitely far fetched, it definitely doesn't fit the concept of a National Treasure and Hisoka died from suffocation, so once he got his heart beating again it's unlikely he needed it to keep him alive
This is entirely possible because we don't know all the requirements of Bandit's Secret because Chrollo said that adding the bookmark came with new restrictions which have been theorized upon but not confirmed.
A thief wouldn't exactly mind adding 'I must steal something of proportional importance before I can steal and add a new ability with Skill Hunter'.
It allows him to put a lot of extra effort to enable 2 skills used at the same time - without adding any extra liabilities on himself during actual battle.
And one can imagine the thievery has to be on par with what Chrollo thinks of the usefulness of the Nen ability.
And well, I think he is very impressed with Bungee Gum and with Texture Surprise - and so it wouldn't be too crazy to think that now he also needs to steal some treasure that he feels is of extreme significance.
Might also be why it took him so long to get all the requirements for the Hisoka fight when the 2 most important abilities were literally standing next to him and another was also held by a friendly figure in Meteor city, maybe he needed to pull some heists.
Can you imagine that this could be how it ends? It might also fit with Hisoka's arc with Gon. Both of them now POWERLESS, and they have to train again- eventually meeting, and that's when their fight to the death truly begins.
@@sharpssharps7930 There's very little chance of Gon ever going after Hisoka or vice versa, not just because Togashi knows he needs to reach an ending and thus isn't likely to bring Gon or Killua back to begin with - but there's simply no hostility, it will not be fitting for Gon to ever fight Hisoka with an intention to end him and thus Hisoka will never be interested.
If Chrollo pulls this off - Hisoka is gone.
But he won't, the black whale is where the story of both the spider and Kurapika ends.
Hinrigh told the nobunaga, phinks, and feitan that the transmitter would only stay as an oyster for two hours in chapter 398
Man on the internet, how are you doing on this fine day?
I appreciate that you went over the sword aspect. I remembered previously that he'd lost that sword during his previous skirmish and was wondering where it'd gone and how he got it back. I find Nobunaga a fascinating character that's heavily being developed.
Mind blown with the title😮
Chrollo Might do Something to absolute reinforce, perhaps even as a Nen ability/curse, that no one should ever take anything from Meteor City. Using himself and the Spider as sacrifice after reaching such great heights of destabilizing or even ending a major nation.
not my original theory
Hello man on the internet how do you do?
Quite well, and yourself?
Chrollo actually has a spider outlined byt the lines in that wonderful panel. Its subtle but you can make it out where his nose is the spider body and his hair the legs.
bro how did you find an excuse to make me picture pokkle's body horror extravaganza courtesy of neferpitou all this time later, c'mon
I can barely even watch that episode
Random late night upload (for me) and I find it within 15 min? Great night!
My long shot guess is that Chrollo will try to steal Prince Tserri’s time breaking skill as a trump card to kill Hisoka but dies in the process allowing Tserri to mature in Nen abilities pissing Kurapika off because he stole his chance to avenge his Clan’s death
Oh youre dumb dumb
That would be crazy. Hisoka would 100 percent go after Tserriednich if that happens, and maybe team up with Kurapika again. I wouldn’t be mad, Tserriednich vs chrollo would be dope. it’s a good theory. It sounds plausible within the scope of the story so far, just the kind of thing Togashi would write. It also sounds pretty damn awesome lol, I hope you’re right.
Wrong the ability he wants to steal existed before the war.
Most princes got theirs after the departure
That ability is not even 2 week old how would Chrollo know of it if it just been created?
Thats just bad writing if Chrollo dies to anyone except himself, hisoka, kurapika, killua or gon cuz he's more of a main character than even leorio. He carries the show for most people.
NEW VIDEO!? BLESSED THIS FRIDAY
I do really like all the phantom troupe, but im excited to see them all die.
We have the exact same feeling! They deserve to die. But I'm also worried for them. Jeez! Only Togashi could ever do this!
Your Favorite 3 (or 4) members, if I may ask?
So we BLAME! now? That sewer art was insane.
This chapter gave me the same vibes as the staging rooms before the break in to the ants palace. Shit's about to go down and it's going down hard.
Also, everything on my table has been f*cked right off.
The alternative plan to deal with Hisoka set up by Kuroro is explained below:
The original plan is very clear that Chrollo wants to fulfill the condition of stealing something equivalent to a National treasure plus additional standard skill hunter conditions to evolve skill hunter to deal with HIsoka for good. But if he comes across hisoka before he achieves this very thing( and this is a real possibility) He wants to deal with Hisoka so that none of the other spiders becomes Hisoka's victims, so he wants to essentially deal with Hisoka by himself and even if he has to die.
Now Kuroro has that one specific ability where he can Mark people and they explode, this is the original ability he used to defeat Hisoka the first time, It is known as Sun and Moon. If you have read chapter 351 to 357 you will have a good idea. Now the thing is that if you pay attention to Kuroro's words for his alternative plan and how he wants to achieve Hisoka's death:
1. The alternative is already in place: which means he has placed the sun and moon mark on himself and once sun and moon marks are placed on someone, those cannot be removed no matter what. Even if chrollo closes the book or does zetsu, they cannot be removed.
2. The spider will go on: means that he will die, so it means that he is ready to kill himself in a suicide bombing blast to kill hisoka,
3. It's the very idea that will instill the fear of the spider: Since the sun and moon is a nen after death ability, and being used by a nen user who is willing to sacrifice himself to kill someone to preserve his precious comrades(exactly in the manner original owner of the sun and moon intended) the blast that will generate from the sun and moon bomb that chrollo will activate when he is near hisoka will rival and surpass netero's zero hand. And that will forever put the fear of spider in the eyes of the general public so that they will always be afraid of the spider.
My biggest question while all the chaos on the ship is underway is, were is the hunter association? It would be cool if togashi does another flashback of the association deducting everything going on and them starting a counter operation to stop the ship from sinking.
They cant really do anything big on the ship because Kakin is still the big wolf in terms of government power in the black whale. We see an example of that when Cheadle (dog Zodiac) and Leorio took care of Prince Halkenburg but the Kakin doctors insist of taking everything. They made their little moves though back in chap 380, the Cow Zodiac already gave hints and warnings to the military of Kakin about the potential riot and paranoia in the ship because of many murders happening around.
Dude, we know where the treasures are and who protects them, it was leaked today. The seed Urn is in Tier 1, it's protected by Zepille, he made a fake of it in the auction arc, now he is protecting the original. The Buddha is being protected by Tonpa in a secret room of the Ministry of Justice in Tier 2, there is no doubt that it is the most difficult to obtain since the Buddha guards the exit barrier of the ship. Finally the sword is protected by Milluki in the back of the McDonald's in Tier 2. What a masterpiece Togashi is cooking 10/10.
I almost died at the Milluki reveal! The fact that he only took the job as a means to obtain a life size Ronald McDonald figure absolutely sent me.
Theory : Chrollo is looking for Kurapika with his cell phone. Because only the nen of kurapika (forced zetsu) can defeat hisoka
Thanks!
I love this channel it brings me so much joy
Thank you so much! I'm thrilled that you love the videos and looking forward to providing more! :D
I think Nobunaga’s sword is meant to be vague, but I kinda want him to be a literal casual swordsmith lol
It’s Chrollover
Jail. Jail for you.
