It's frickin' insane how I sat down and read this chapter slowly and methodically the moment it was out, and still I missed a ton of stuff you point out in this video. I'm so obsessed with this mammoth of an arc and all the insanity that lies ahead.
@@meatballmustard7658 he’s been looking for a loophole since day 1. That would be very on-brand for him. It might also be the only way out for the younger princes. I have very little hope that any of them will survive wobble included but this would give them a way of it.
The sacrifice is too much for me. He's basically losing his identity, thus his private and public relationships, and also position in the political landscape. On the other hand, it makes sense to sacrifice his body by targeting the most power figure in the kingdom after Nasubi.
I cant shake the feeling that Queen Oito could be the child of beyond and woble his grandchild, I think it would be an interesting twist w/o subverting the plot point of one of the princes being a descendant of beyond. Ofc I think this is really unlikely but I put nothing passed togashi and I think I like the fact that most eyes are on the other princes for the child of beyond and this would be a welcomed twist for me. Keep up the good work tho man, HxH wordy format is perfect for your chapter release read throughs!
I needed this video with the whole paint and drawings and all of the faces and names on the screen. Its SO easy to follow and i finally understood the whole 100% of the ch because of you😭😭😭💕💕
Crackpot theory: Halkenburger will use his arrow a second time jumping from Balsamico's body to Benjamin's and his plan is to hijack his private army, unite the two factions and bully all the other older princes in resolving the successon contest ina more civilized manner. But alas, it will not go down this way, something will go horribly wrong and we will probably see an even more perverted side of Halkenburguer ideals in the climax of the arc.
Wait till he starts yapping Gojo is back when referring to some other character in hxh. Dude kept the gojo copium until the second to last chapter of JJK.
Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate your vids! After I read for myself, I come here for your retelling. I honestly find it hard to keep track of a lot of the details of the succession war (especially stuff from many chapters ago) and I think the more subtle things that happen in chapters go over my head at times. So it's very helpful to have a second person hold my hand while recounting everything that just happened lol
I can't thank you enough for these recaps. This arc takes the cake for 'shit is so complicated it makes my eyes glaze over'. A body swap didn't even click for me until i watched this. I am gonna cope and say I forgot everyone's nen abilities and not that i got crossed eyed trying to keep up lol.
It certainly is trying hard to get the 'most overly complicated shonen ever trophy', but does that mean it's the best story next to, say, kingdom and one piece? Heck, hxh isn't even better than yuyu hakusho imo..
Thanks @manganimist for such a detailed explanation. I am reading along with your explanation and this arc will be best if delivered correctly. I will let Togashi sensai cook....
Can't wait to see what the gang families and spiders are doing through out all fo this. I have a feeling the spiders might completely throw some of the Princes' plans in chaos
I’m so glad we’re also reading HxH, I decided to catch up after JJK and it’s like that same scenario when you have that friend you get into the same class with again lmao. Nice to continue reading another Manga with the same community tbh.
While Balsamico likely was hit by the arrow, I can't help but imagine Togashi having the arrow miss and hit someone else behind the other hallway. Then when Balsamico is actually about to kill Halkenberg's dormant body, Halkenberg stops him as somebody else. Likely not the case but i hope we finish this plot point before switching back to the Troupe!
Did halkenburg get all the knowledge of balsamico after possessing him? If so, thats op, considering that balsamico seems to be a smart/resourceful guy that seems so close to benjamin, then halk will definitely find a way/ weakness to exploit. Benjamin is toasted, unless his nen beast would power (whatever that is) interfere, which is the most likely scenario
The panel where Balso is speaking to Benjamin one the phone had Halkenburg’s face behind Balso’s head. Was that not hinting that Halkenburg swapped bodies when the toxin was released?
The panel with Might talking to Benjamin and Halkenberg is shown behind him tells me that his arrow hit its target but I could be wrong of course. This could be very bad for Ben.
@@laquanlucas6953Yea he did say that he'd assume that Might is working with Halkenberg. Assuming he's not able to convince Benjamin that he completed the mission.
Kaiser telling wario he’s willing to support Benjamin is a mistranslation in the original he says he is willing to support halkenburg as long as he protects fugetsu which makes much more sense
Just as a side note when Balsa calls Benjamin to tell him the mission is completed we can see Halkenburg's soul behind Balsa which means he hit him with the Nen arrow
Does the panel with balsamilco talking with Benjamin close to the end of the chapter confirm that halkinburg actually is in possession of balsamilco? I see a lot of people concluding one or the other and you did not really mention it. I guess it will be made clear at some point but wondering what y’all thought
The 💭 bubble showcase halkenberg was the main subject from Might speaking with Benjamin. Which does not indicate being possessed by the attacks. We have to see more Of Might show unusual behavior but only Benjamin knows Might real self
I have a feeling the next couple of chapters will focus on the Mafia/spiders/Hisoka. Basically I think the Luzerus assassination mission would be a grand event where a ton of shit goes down
Possible but unlikely. First, looks like to fire the arrow thingy he must come back to his original body, (the only way the possessing soul coming back that we know of is by murdering the host, and balsamico death will alert benjamins nen - the stars in his finger) Second and the most concerning - benjamins nen beast. even if halkenburg somehow can use the arrow while in balsamico body, & the arrow are supposed to be unstoppable, we still don't know anything about benjamins nen beast. It might be sensory/ future sight power like tserriednich, in that case it wont let halkenburg to fire the arrow in the first place
Manganimist loves this chapter as usual, in JJK he loves every bad decision Gege made, and now despite how complex and confusing the story is he love it again, surely it is going to be good right?
So a story being complex means it's bad? This is such a strange comment. It's not even confusing. I also see that you have multiple comments hating on HxH so why are you here?

Togashi is fuckin BRILLIANT. This is so peak. Hulk fo sho swapped himself and is gonna let his old body die just to catch Benjamin slippin 😤
Would the rules of the contest allow him to leave his original body body to rot 🤔

Next chapter is 404. That's Kurapika's number during the Hunter exam.
Couldn't understand this without you or reading multiple times
Highly recommend reading the official release on Sunday as I find it a lot easier to comprehend
Probably because there's bad translations similar to jjk. The officials are much easier to read like the person above me said.
Read midpiece then😂

Togashi is on the roll bro. 3 chapters back to back
Toriyama death was motivated him to work
@@bayumahendra1797 i hope he also takes care of himself. nothing more important than wellbeing of a person.
@@bayumahendra1797I notice after his death, togashi has been working a lot more now.
I actually think he's getting healthier. No amount of motivation can overcome the discomfort of chronic back pain. Speaking from experience.
I needed this video with the whole paint and drawings and all of the faces and names on the screen. Its SO easy to follow and i finally understood the whole 100% of the ch because of you😭😭😭💕💕
Togashj took 2 year hiatus to cook up these chapter
I think it was already written ....he just wasn t able to draw it because of his back pain

I love this manga so much 😭
Can't wait to see what the gang families and spiders are doing through out all fo this. I have a feeling the spiders might completely throw some of the Princes' plans in chaos
Man, Halk is not playing around. Wonder what happens if they toss his body. Will he then be trapped in Balsamicos body forever ?
He still dies in might body if he ever tries to go after Benjamin is going to handle Halkenberg.
Balsamico is in Haukenberg's body, so Balsa dies.
Now we know what’s up.
Balsamilcos and Halks souls will co exist in Balsamilcos body with given priority to Halk. That can get quite interesting
I’m so glad we’re also reading HxH, I decided to catch up after JJK and it’s like that same scenario when you have that friend you get into the same class with again lmao. Nice to continue reading another Manga with the same community tbh.

FINALLY AN ACTUAL REVIEW OF THE CHAPTER, everyone else just give us a resume of the chapter as if we dont know already what happened.
Man is on a roll with the theories, time machine accusations coming back
will gojo come back in dark continent?

Theres a lot of analysis and learning by every prince but I have a feeling a lot princes are going to be dropping dead
Not trying to jinx it but wth damn chapters are coming back to back and I love it
dude fkin togashi creating a suspense novella under the guise of manga i'm here for it i hope he regains and remains healthy forever
Something you might've missed. In the page with Unma on it, in the background there is a cradle. So maybe there is another child?
I’m up to date, but barley keeping up 😅

@@SolidSnake240 Benjamin would be on cautious and be on guard. If Might is possessed by Halkenberg Benjamin is going to attack without any warning.
@@laquanlucas6953Yea he did say that he'd assume that Might is working with Halkenberg. Assuming he's not able to convince Benjamin that he completed the mission.
Ball boy/hawk daddy just poisoned his own prince. Calling it.

Just as a side note when Balsa calls Benjamin to tell him the mission is completed we can see Halkenburg's soul behind Balsa which means he hit him with the Nen arrow
To me it seemed like Halkenburg was talking while in balsamicos body
Probably mistranslated, the justice guy said he would back HALKENBERG and not Benjamin
More greatness!

The 💭 bubble showcase halkenberg was the main subject from Might speaking with Benjamin. Which does not indicate being possessed by the attacks. We have to see more Of Might show unusual behavior but only Benjamin knows Might real self
He must likely hit balsamico and transfered his consciousness to him
Bro it was literally stated by the title but i couldn't believe how the chapter end
Can we get your thoughts on the chapter soon?
Tseri didn't need to read it. He can read it in the Parallel world so no risk. Tseri is smart.
Somebody tell togashi that mangas come once a month now… I hope he doesn’t burn his self out
Day 11 no sale sale rap, hoping for a post mortem drop.
What exactly is martial law?
I would die before boarding the dumb whale boat. I would die in a random flashback months before the war. BYE. 🎉

Up!
Can Halkenburg switches body with Prince Benjamin if ever?
Possible but unlikely.
First, looks like to fire the arrow thingy he must come back to his original body, (the only way the possessing soul coming back that we know of is by murdering the host, and balsamico death will alert benjamins nen - the stars in his finger)

Eventually the stitches on his head will scar if he doesnt die within 5 minutes
