This thing is just pure menace. Brion has an unbelievably intimidating presence.

Yeah, I thought it'd be an S or the highest ranked of the Calamities just on that presence and gut feeling but the thing it's on the lower side in terms of overall threat ranking. Regardless, that just makes me more unprepared for something like Hellbell that's ranked even higher.

Some unfortunate group is going to run into Brion and get fucked up. Hopefully the Elf and his mercs from Beyond's team.

Pup scares me the most, just cause I can't see what it actually looks like.

Probably would be the best to get killed by though, look at the satisfaction on the dried up human it caught.

I have long dwelled on what Hellbell is gonna be about lol. I imagine it injects some kind of homicidal virus into people. Shit will probably be contagious, and may even mutate people. Hellbell's threat rating is extremely high, so we know it's nasty. But I can really only guess, at how this thing could wipe out humanity . . .

Its going to be Ging, with Brion being the guardian of some ruined labyrinth city or something. Ruins are Gings thing, of course.

Im starting to believe that Togashi was not joking when he said that all the spiders and Kurapika are gonna die.

All good as long as he doesn't have to turn on Stealth Dolphin, steal an ability, lose complete track of how complicated the conditions are, fall into a coma and burn off 6 years of his life for no fucking reason.
Yea, he really screwed up not finding out exactly how that power worked before he stole it. Kurapika really needs to give that thing an emergency off-switch so he can dump a useless power.

"Yo Kurapika, you wanna live?"
"Yes Dolphin-Senpai."
"Then turn me the fuck off!!!!!"
That whole sequence of events cracked me up while simultaneously feeling very bad for Kurapika.

I have a feeling Kurapika is going to die realizing how much he's got to live for and that he wants to keep on going. For someone with friends and people who care about it, he's way too eager to throw it all away. I totally get why he's like this, but it's way too easy to imagine a really bad death as a result.

That restriction is probably why that hatsu is even possible, great power comes at great cost.
You're probably right. I just keep imagining him stealing Tsenderrich's power and being unable to ditch it because all it does is skin people like they're fruit.

Yeah he's got way more friends than he realizes. Leorio's going to be so mad watching that poor blonde effeminate looking man die. Same with Melody.

I mean when he was thinking about hat comes after, he was giving me death-vibes in his inner monologue, that he has nothing. Hopefully Leorio or Melody can pull him out of that mindset. This arc is probably going to mostly wrap up Kurapika's story, he's so close to getting the rest of the eyes and the spiders suddenly being involved is no coincidence, Hisoka/Treasure was just the catalyst. If he survives, he'll probably be more or less like Gon, story mostly finished and deciding how he wants to live the rest of his life - that doesn't mean we won't see him again though!

I really don't think Kurapika planned that far ahead or even really cares about what comes after. The conditions for his ability pretty much spell that out.

Yeah, I know. That's basically what the scene depicted which is why it gives me death-vibes. Very depressive outlook on life. Hopefully someone or something pulls him back.

Isn't that the scene where he's just sitting there in front of the eyes? He's kind of sort of done with life to me and isn't even engaged until he get dragged into the current arc.

Read volumes 21-25 over the weekend.

Forgot how much I loved Killua and Ikalgo becoming buds.

Now I want me an Ikalgo avatar.

Kurapika is literally gonna have some fucking Jason Bourne status after this Succession War, assuming he survives.

Ikalgo owns. I was happy he got out of that palace battle relatively unscathed, brain centipedes aside

I actually commissioned someone an avatar of Ikalgo way back, based on some manga colorization. It's a super close up and he looks kinda evil, but in case you like it you can take it.

Those caterpillar things in his head were gross.

Yeah, it was gross. But to be fair, almost the whole CA crew got fucked up at some point

Ikalgo - STAHP

His head was a bit fucked, but compared to the others?

Gon - Just no.

Killua - Came out the invasion unscathed, but he almost bled out prior.

Shoot - That guy got FUCKKKED up

Morel - Less serious but still got hospitalised

Only Melereon and Knuckle really came out unscathed of that entire arc. Zeno too, if you count him.

CA Arc was fucking brutal to everyone. I gasped when I saw post Gon-san Gon cause holy shit he should have died. Palm getting Ant'd was an improvement though. That fan edit is hilarious. Fucking human dogs....

I thought Knuckle was gonna die here, but instead we got a badass moment and some hilarious internal monologuing.
