Chapter 400 we finally see Kurapika again and Melody tries to figure out which Prince killed Kacho
Sad that Togashi is going back to hiatus but hope his health improves and he gets some good rest. Grateful for this recent stretch of chapters with learning more about the Phantom Troupe and the mafia especially
Honestly glad Nen Kacho is sticking around. She's one of the more interesting princes. Think I'm gonna try and reread this arc, since Togashi is going back on hiatus anyway.
If I recall correctly Tubeppa is one of the princes that's allied with a mafia family. Maybe Kurapika has a connection there from his job? In any case, he definitely wants and could use more support.

Dang, you're really just gonna leave that hanging awkwardly like that? Well, I don't take it back, Melody is Best Girl. I think if you counted up all her panels between the Yorknew City and Succession War arcs, she might have the most screentime out of any female character in the series (only Biscuit really rivals her, and while she was in a lot of Greed Island, she was barely in Chimera Ant).
Anyway, they posted a promotional video for the "Hyskoa vs Quwrof" fight, for some reason:
I think it'd be really cool to bring the anime back. They should have enough material for 3-4 cours, even if it technically ends in a weird spot mid-arc.
The Hyskoa vs Quwrof fight should come near the end of the next cour, but with basically no action and all set-up before that point, I would hope they would bring it back for at least two or three. Granted, there's not really any good stopping place after the ship sets sail, but the alternative is to wait for Togashi to finish the arc.
Hey, turns out this hiatus isn't going to be anywhere near as long as the last one! Togashi has finished chapter 401
.
I think it looks like we'll get another batch of chapters sometime this year.

So, decided I'd been putting off reading this manga for long enough. Was torn between either starting on this or YuYu Hakusho, but I figured eh, I've been seeing Hunter x Hunter brought up a lot more lately, so I might as well get in on it.
I read Volume 1 and dang, this is looking pretty fun. Already enjoying the characters. Gon is adorable, really liking the dynamic between Kurapika and Leorio, and I'm kind of intrigued by Killua. I was half-expecting the stereotypical shonen rival with him, but he just seems like a normal kid with a dark side. I also like how they just jump right into the action, like fuck it, we're going straight into this fucking exam, no questions. Definitely gonna let this one simmer a little so I can see where it leads. I've heard it goes into some dark places, so I'm looking forward to that.

Chapter 399: Nobunaga and Hinrigh are the new dynamic duo. Despite Morena’s goons clearly being amateurs, they have pesky abilities. Will be interesting to see how they deal with that.
