If he didn't brief all of the other Zodiacs he's an idiot.

I don't remember since it was a long hiatus ago, but I think they suspect there's a traitor zodiac.

Kurapika suspects it's Saiyu (the Monkey Zodiac).

Whom they put to watch Beyond, along with Horse and Tiger.

 

[Keru_Shiri]

Whom they put to watch Beyond, along with Horse and Tiger.

Only Mizai and Kurapkia know. They also decided not to make a move against him since they don't have concrete evidence, only Kurapika's lie detector, which was used on a video of the Zodiacs revealing their powers to each other. Mizai didn't want to reveal that what was presented as a trust-building exercise was actually the opposite and feared the other Zodiacs would take this as a betrayal. Though it seems like the proposal to watch Beyond in shifts is about to blow that plan apart.

 

[Kieli]

I'd like to see Kurapika fight one of the Zodiacs.

 

[Kyuur]

Is this succession supposed to be over by the time they reach the Dark Continent?
I thought they weren't going to start the succession fight UNTIL the boat ride ended and they get to the Dark Continent.

I don't have the panels right now, but I believe they said something to the effect of 'the person left standing at the end of the voyage is King'. The Kakin royal family is only going to the fake DC like the rest of the civilians. This is why Oito is confused about the whole situation with the guards, since it leaves no room (for regular people) to kill eachother:

 

[Fandangox]

Whom they put to watch Beyond, along with Horse and Tiger.

When I heard them complain about 3 people not being necessary to watch over Beyond I presumed Mizai made it like that so when it is the Monkey's turn he is always with someone else.

Even if the monkey is not the traitor, whoever is will always have 2 other people there at all times.

Apparently some confirmed spoilers out there.

Apparently some confirmed spoilers out there.

I now enter the weekly dilemma of weather to read spoilers now or wait.

 

[Spinx]

Here's your spoiler. Togashi willl be on hiatus from next week. Pffffffffffff

 

[Kyuur]

Apparently there will be either a break or hiatus after this week's chapter. Hopefully just the former.

 

[remz]

Here's your spoiler. Togashi willl be on hiatus from next week. Pffffffffffff

man fuck that

 

[B-Dubs]

Here's your spoiler. Togashi willl be on hiatus from next week. Pffffffffffff

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Spinx]

Sandman confirmed it's a hiatus not a week break. Welp

 

[Erigu]

Here's your spoiler. Togashi willl be on hiatus from next week. Pffffffffffff

Well, we did get just enough for one more volume.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

AHAHAHAHHAHHA.....THE BOAT LIVES ON!
*Prays it's only a 3 month hiatus*

 

[B-Dubs]

Well, we did get just enough for one more volume.

We should have known he'd only come back long enough to do a single volume.

 

[grandjedi6]

Well, we did get just enough for one more volume.

Oh hey, my prediction was right.

See ya all in 2018.

 

[Kieli]

Yep, thought so.

The quality of the work was way too high to be sustainable.

 

[Order]

My first break since catching up to the manga

Fuck

 

[Schadenfreude]

Guys, do you think that Togashi's new health regimen will allow him to do mini hiatuses? Like maybe instead of being gone for about a year he'll be gone like a month then come back and continue again? Short intense bursts of manga.

 

[kewlmyc]

Sandman confirmed it's a hiatus not a week break. Welp

We got like what 8 chapters total?

Fucking hell. Just hire someone else to do the art.

 

[Fandangox]

Here's your spoiler. Togashi willl be on hiatus from next week. Pffffffffffff

[Radec]

See you guys in 2023

 

[B-Dubs]

Guys, do you think that Togashi's new health regimen will allow him to do mini hiatuses? Like maybe instead of being gone for about a year he'll be gone like a month then come back and continue again? Short intense bursts of manga.

We can always hope.

 

[Raxus]

Boats were a mistake.

 

[zswordsman]

Boats were a mistake.

They're nothing but trash :'(

 

[Grazzt]

What?!
NOOOOO!!!!!!

 

[Joyful]

just read the news

happiness was never meant to last

 

[The Silver]

I knew Togashi wasn't gonna let Berserk beat him for best boat induced haitus

 

[vareon]

The dream is dead.

 

[Ray Down]

The real question is will this boat ride be longer than Berserk's?

 

[Negator]

But...but...fuck. Just why.

Hopefully it comes back soon?

 

[grandjedi6]

But...but...fuck. Just why.

Hopefully it comes back soon?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Spyder_Monkey]

Who wants to bet how long they'll be on the boat for. I'm betting 10. Maybe 20.

 

[Erigu]

We got like what 8 chapters total?

Eleven.

Fucking hell. Just hire someone else to do the art.

Once again, I doubt the art is the only issue.

 

[Philippo]

TOGASHIIIIIIIIIII

 

[Turin Turambar]

Still a better release pace than Song of Ice and Fire!

I hope for a not very long hiatus. Maybe 7 months.

 

[vypek]

My first break since catching up to the manga

Fuck

.

 

[HStallion]

Ahh I see he's taken the Miura school for writing boat trips

 

[Gvitor]

I called it. Hiatus on the boat...

Someone change the thread title to "Don't forget, we're here forever."

 

[BatDan]

Yep. 11 chapters then break. Just like the Chimera Ant arc days.

Hopefully these breaks are shorter since the author comments make it sound like he's doing a lot better now. Maybe someday he'll have an Oda style schedule of 3-4 chapters then a one week break.

 

[Tony Iron Man Stark]

Got into a season and I really like that there isn't a cheesy romance like many other animes.

 

[ampere]

*about to see Kurapika fight a non-spider*

*hiatus*

lol. I just re-read the whole series recently too. Was the first time I had read the volumes and most of the redrawn art, so that was cool. Definitely had forgotten a ton of stuff about Kite and how the Chimera arc ended

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

we became complacent and this is our punishment

 

[Gvitor]

Last time we got 9 chapters (0 volumes) with 3 or 4 breaks during publication. This time we got 11 chapters (2 volumes), fucking Chrollo vs Hisoka, and the only break during publication was golden week.

All in all, this was a good run.

 

[vypek]

What a great chapter. Very interesting. Togashi's mind seems to be full of well thought out ideas. Nothing in the manga seems to scream out that it doesn't make sense. Although, it would have been easier to handle a hiatus if he didn't end it on such a great chapter. lol

 

[Kyuur]

I guess it makes sense that Nen beasts can phase through walls, since Nen itself is immaterial. Pretty hax though. I don't understand why Kurapika went 'yo I'll take care of this' though. The other guy was also a hunter, no? Or do temp hunters not necessarily know Nen?

Hopefully only a couple weeks break but I'm not holding my breath. Will be sad to not have this to read next week.

 

[Daingurse]

Stuff is really starting to get interesting as of this latest chapter. The introduction of the Parasitic Nen Type is very intriguing. And are as expected, these Nen Beasts completely autonomous. Which is scary as hell, there's no safe place on this ship.

Man this is a brutal time for a hiatus. You'd think I'd be used to it by now, but it always hurts haha. Togashi is too good.

Yeah, I was really hoping we would be fit for the long haul but he's not going to totally quit with this arc in progress so I'm ok with it.
