I like them, they seem very quirky. I think people exected badasses like Garling accross the board and were disappointed. I like how sadistic Sommers is, Killinghams ability is very cool. And Gunko is very expressive, I thought she would be the silent badass type. Shamrock is meh, not a fan of the Shanks twin thing but I like his fruit and I like how the other HKs just call him Shamrock lol.

Fujishiro

How about you TAC ?

TheAncientCenturion

I feel the same, I really enjoy the fact Oda is allowing these characters to bounce off each other and even Kilingham and Gunko have more to them than stoic or especially "hard" characters. I don't mind Shamrock, I think he'll be a really fun antagonist if he returns to Elbaph.

Fujishiro

I like that they seem to care about each other.

Fujishiro

Reminds me a bit of the Phantom troupe.

I never got that far into HxH, it bored me too much in the pyramid. But I get what ya mean. It's nice that Kilingham can put Sommers to sleep and there's no hard feelings between them at all.

Oda really can write compelling enemy factions. They even feel like tight knit crew. I was really looking forward to to seeing the Holy Knights from God's valley though, I hope they reappear and weren't killed off.

There's some great chemistry and camaraderie, I like it when villains are more cooperative or even caring for each other rather than the cliché self serving, backstabbing, dog eat dog etc clichés.

underused as the cp0 are, I like liked how one of them seemed remorseful at seeing guernica sacrifice himself honourably to kaido. Cp0 has great aura of being intelligent, composed and resourceful and the HK are definitely delivering in a similar way but with Oda's classic goofiness and gags.
I get a bit of similar vibes to cp9, baroque works and maybe dare I even say it, the akatsuki lol.

The whole salt thing

Kizaruber Eats

With Killingham and Sommers was hilarious and very clever, a great counterpart to Luffy's powers too and thus thematically fitting.

I'm glad Sommers is related to ju Peter and id like to learn how their relationship is too then.

Would be cool if each Gorosei has a relative In the Holy Knights, I can see the one for Saturn being potential angry/upset at what happened to Saturn or wondering what happened and hating

TAC watch HxH wtf, you gotta power past the first 10 episodes and then its great.

Kizaruber Eats

Garling consequently.

Gunko full name and heterochromatic eyes, as we as covered face are giving me major vibes of her having an important role and twist. With her having revolutionary type clothing and being scared of nika, it offers some very interesting possibilities and concern.

Sorry I'm doing my usual essay spam but this really piqued my interest lmao.

Every HxH fight is like a math problem. And no the series doesn’t really improve after the first arc, it’s mostly just more of the same. Not a bad series but not truly excellent either. The whole series is just a generic shonen backgrounded pointless subversion of expectations constantly. The Killua’s family arc was such a goddamn joke it shocked me.

Elder Lee Hung

The Chimaera Ant arc started off really cool, but the big battle was such a damn joke it really was amazing. And the narration was so awful it almost made me drop the series altogether. I still haven’t caught up yet.

Fujishiro

Youre one of the rare people who thinks the series doesnt improve because it does for the most part. From the hunters exam then the heavens arena is a big jump in quality, same for that to Yorknew.< CA Arc. You can say Greed Island wasnt an improvement from Yorknew and thats true, Election arc was pretty cool though. I think your issue is that you read the manga instead of watched the 2011 series Lee.

Elder Lee Hung

No I watched the anime my man. I never read the manga.

Fujishiro

And you think quality wise it didnt get better? Thats a cold take lol.
