nice setup, quite interested to see what happens when they actually go to the dark continent (edit*or rather, how useless and powerless some of them will be). by the way, where is Killua supposed to be?
I feel like that I should read the manga again or watch the anime, I forgot a lot of stufff.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
That latest Naruto chapter sure dropped some giant megatons.
Whether they are retcons or not, I cannot say for sure. We finally got more exposition on what happened to Madara after his battle with Hashirama, though. I always felt like there was a missing link there. "I died and got Hashirama's DNA and then activated Rinnegan" was a pretty vapid explanation. Although... what he did end up doing is pretty disgusting.

I just had to comment to say I read Naruto and was literally like "what the fuck"...more so than any other chapter of this shit I've ever read. Holy christ.

Man, why is this so damn good. Great setup chapter, I really like seeing more of Ging's character. So I guess he's an asshole but a really nice person and yet a horrible father. Keep giving me more Togashi. Kurapika and Leorio are showing up more than Gon, I really hope they have a much bigger focus this arc, and it's looking like I won't be disappointed. Speaking about Gon, looks like he still can't use his nen. Which is great tbh, it really puts more emphasis that how he beat Pitou wasn't a cop-out by Togashi, especially if he's still suffering the consequences.

Also, I still think Killua has a big role in this arc. He's with Alluka right now, who I'm damn sure is related to the Dark Continent. He'll join into the story soon enough.

Aww yiss, muther fucking Sabo. Where's that shit's bout to get realer than real pic when you need it. I really hope the pace of this arc speeds up though, These final fight set ups are nice, like Zoro vs Pika and the coliseum crew vs Dofa's family or w/e you call it, but I wanna get this arc moving. The fights are gonna be terrific but I'm more curious as to what effects this battle will have in the new world, which I expect it to be massive.

I dunno I have a feeling Gon is going to go to Killua to figure out what's going on with his powers, resulting in them journeying to the Dark Continent for the solution. Maybe Alluka tags along. This could bring a whole character arc for Killua where he has to protect Gon and Alluka at the same time while going through the Dark Continent.

You're probably right, especially with the introduction of Ghost Stone. So far Killua's big weakness is the need to recharge at an outlet or other power source, Ghost Stone means he only needs some water and he's golden. It'll let him function in the Dark Continent without worry.

I'd usually be okay with a Killua character arc, but I am enjoying all this focus on Ging, the Zodiac, Beyond and his crew, and Leorio and Kurapika. I'd much rather have the focus stay on them, and have Gon and Killua be on the sidelines for a while. I'm not saying have them totally out of it, but more like they're not the focus. I'm sure the focus will gravitate to them eventually since they are the main characters, but it'd be nice of Togashi to not have them be the total focus.

Yeah that's the first thing I thought of when I heard of Ghost stone. Perfect fit for Killua.

Bleach

Someone please tell me why there's a gaping hole leading to the Soul King's palace because Ichigo came out, and yet Renji, Byakuya, and Rukia came down well before Ichigo. Why is Bach going now, why didn't he go when those 3 came down? Or did they come down in a different way than Ichigo? I honestly can't remember.

Anyways, I was hoping that Ichigo would fodder everyone that's there and move on to Bach, but I guess extending this fight with all these guys is kinda worth it. Kinda.

...of what? The series is still going, they're just 100+ chapters behind in the translations.

The next three points are going to take forever too, you just know it.

Renji, Rukia, and Byakuya did not come the same way as Ichigo. There was specific info about Ichigo´s way will take longer for him to get to Soul Society. And i highly doubt they use the same clothes as Ichigo.

This series has gotten me so close to crying many times. I haven't cried in a long time.
The character development, the art, the high octane, clever tactics... this is a really fantastic series.

Sabo was amazing, but as expected he'll do minimal but key support this arc. I'd love it if he could get a 1v1 someday.

Everyone else are gearing up for the 1v1s proper finally!
