I saw they posted a thing stating "HEY, we accidentally stated on the case that this has the Japanese audio, that's not right, it's only the original dub, our bad."FUNimation just released the remaster on Blu-ray this week.

If you think what you're complaining about is bad now then you're in for a really rough 2018-2019.

adding interest
Even Speedwagon is confused
Honestly i think i have to be in a mood for it sometimes JoJo in japanese without the goofy accents of english annoyed me sometimes with the explanation
Bleach is the worst because it's tied into how convuluted and convenient the battles became ot helped by Kubo giving enemies bullshit level hax abilities that makes unbelievable or unsatisfying when they are beaten.

I love Jojo but I'm glad the narrator doesn't survive past Part 2 in the anime.
And Togashi has always had a rule boner. Who can forget "let's fight in front of knives Yusuke, it'll be badass".

I can also handle exposition in shows, I wouldnt be able to watch shonen without it. HxH is definitely not as good at it as Jojo is
Narrator works really well in the manga. The anime just needed a better voice over

That's basically the HxH issue. Some Nen abilities are so complicated or specific that if they weren't properly explained you'd have no idea what's going on. Like with Kurapika's Chain Jail, if not for the explanation you'd think it was just a really strong chain and not something that forces zetsu.
But that doesn't typically happen in HxH lol
The example you used a few post back had Zeno trying to figure out Chrollo's ability mid fight with inner monologues. It works in this case because it shows us how capable Zeno is by having him piece it together. None of the fighters stopped to explain their abilities, the action was still going on during this whole process.
I don't mind explanations, but Togashi leans too much into words instead of drawings. Which is weird for a comic, though admittedly it's less of a thing than it should be for manga in general.
I don't mind Jojo's explanations as much since they're written so ridiculously that listening to them becomes entertaining, like "bullet deflecting oil" or "he blinded himself to activate a mental switch"

I just dont think that explanation was well done or that intriguing, and I don't really think that it was all that complex or especially cool enough to be explicitly explained.
I prefer post fight explanations personally to during the middle of fight ones is what I was saying. I get what they were doing, it just didnt seem that interesting to me.

I don't think Jarate knows how far down the exposition hole gets with HxH...it's like digging to China...
Nope, even when told about something shit don't make sense.
The manga is easily the most convoluted when it comes to power explanation but I'd put it ahead of Bleach in execution because like others said it literally only happens in Bleach so that the villain can hoist themselves by their own petard.
oh um, I should mention that I didn't mind Zeno's explanation of Chrollo's power, that's one of HxH's more understandable expositions.
but honestly it's really impressive how shamelessly specific Kubo wrote those powers sometimes
Yeah, no way Togashi's ever going to be as bad as Bleach.

You are not worthy of such effeminate fabulousness.
That was such a wasted opportunity. Kubo had the tools needed to pull the ultimate troll move and he never did, such bullshit.
BEEFY>BISHIE
It's why the first part of Bleach is so damn good. None of the nonsense and tomfoolery.
I think that was explained before hand can't remember
Remember how
Yhawch was beaten by an arrow from Uryu dad's ass
Also Rose and Shinji lost because they told the enemy how their power works

I liked YYH better when it was a Jim Jam's ripoff.
Actually that's not true, I prefer YYH before that.
Still wish we kept going with that YYH-style supernatural real world setting. Would've been way dope than what we got.
Remember when Orihime was a ridiculous goofy character? Or that she had a whole backstory thing with her dead brother?
I liked Naruto better when it was a HxH ripoff
I mean...who doesn't?
