Yes! Everything Suggests That He Should Be One And With The Introduction Of Zero I Wonder If She Broke

Yes!  Everything suggests that he should be one and with the introduction of Zero I wonder if she broke his parents' relationship in a similar way like Naraku did with Inuyasha and Kikyo. 

And, Riku being Time Travel would explain a lot! He knows more than he should and considering that he don't have allies that could provide him of that much information happening at the same time neither Kirinmaru, Sesshomaru or Inuyasha sensed him around them...? I mean, it could be a plot hole but it can also be that his "time travel powers" allow him to be undetected. or something like that.

So, since this episode made a lot of emphasis in the fact that the pearls are made from “sad tears”.

1) Moroha’s red pearl come from Kagome’s tears?

2) If the gold and silver pearls are Zero’s tears then…she fell in love with a yokai (probably Inu no Taishou?)? she fell in love with a human? or she lost someone that was important for her?

3) What about Riku’s pearls?

OK, I have to make a little pointer here because I’ve seen stuff in the Kurapika tag as well as some others that is making me really annoyed with this new chapter release.

Some people are mad that Togashi killed Shalnark and Kortopi and that Hisoka is going on a rampage to ‘kill all the Spiders’ now. Some people are even telling him to go back on hiatus or rewrite it all. This is his story, remember, and he can do what he wants. Yes, I know it’s sad when characters you adore die, I’ve experienced this before and I am now, but you don’t need to throw hissy fits to Togashi either. Authors and creators of work do what they want with a story but negative backlash will just make creators want to stop and make a negative fanbase.

He had also mentioned before that the Phantom Troupe was going to die. After all, he killed the Chimera Ants. Togashi kills off his villains in the manner he deems timely and fit. Plus, there was foreshadowing of death for Troupe members during the death fight between Hisoka and Chrollo when Chrollo possessed Nen of his own fellow Spiders. The fortunes Chrollo even wrote during Yorkshin / Yorknew were evidence enough that hey, characters are going to die. A lot of characters didn’t even read theirs out loud and it may of mentioned death at a later point. 

We all also know Hisoka is a sore loser. He doesn’t like losing, especially when he has things he wants to do. And why did he go after Kortopi and Shalnark first? Why not Machi? Why did Togashi put them there? They were Nenless and likely not going to regain their Nen. Machi had hers and was left there, and since Hisoka payed her for a treatment but then denied it, he might of also had this planned from even before the battle to rid of the Troupe and make Machi his messenger. Shalnark and Kortopi, in his mind, are now ‘ broken toys ‘ without their Nen. If he cannot fight them, then what is the use of them being alive? Plus, it sets an example, a warning to the other Spiders. He does have a temper, but he is also smart and cunning, and we cannot deny him of that as he’s shown many examples in the past of this.

Now I want to move onto something that’s been severely ticking me off– demonizing Kurapika. People are getting pissed at him for killing the Troupe, and I have seen some accounts and I haven’t been able to return to the tag since the spoiler release Wednesday. How is he a bad person for killing the Troupe when they’re the mass murderers? He doesn’t even want to kill. In past, when he did fight Uvogin, he mentioned how he hated the feeling and emotions that arose from the fight, and he gave him option after option for forgiveness. He didn’t want to kill. In the Trick Tower, he says how he doesn’t condone violence and doesn’t want to kill unless forced to.

Uvogin accepted death and refused to apologize. Pakunodona didn’t have to use her Nen, and Kurapika went the pacifist route after killing Uvogin with his chains being used instead of murdering. Paku chose death to inform her fellow Spiders of who Kurapika was. He didn’t want to kill, but she chose it. 

He also made a promise to Gon about no longer continuing to go after the Spiders, but his Clan’s eyes. He’s kept this promise since after Yorknew, not once trying to go after the Phantom Troupe. Maybe he’s thought about it, but not once has he broken that vow. Kurapika doesn’t like violence, he hates the death, and it’s even shown in the 99 anime how badly it affects him- he vomits after killing Uvogin, when he’s back and gets a fever from his illness over his guilt. Hell, he even sees mirages of them with the guilt and remorse he feels over taking two people’s lives, even if they were mass murderers and thieves who cared for no one besides their small click of thieves.

Yes, you can mourn over your favorite character’s deaths. Yes, I understand, even if they’re a villain, you can like them. If they die though, that doesn’t mean you can take it out like this and make a fanbase look bad, or make others so annoyed and irritated to the point of wanting to leave. If you really do not like the decision an author or creator makes to the point you’re make these threats to an author or severely misinterpret a character to where others cannot go do what they like without being bothered or upset, take a break. Take a breather, step away. If that’s not enough and you want to leave, then leave. 

This is what makes a severely unhealthy fandom, something that makes people hate the group of people they used to cherish a similar love for now despise it. Please, Hunter X Hunter is a great fandom, and don’t ruin it over this.

I feel like I need to say this, as I've seen some concerning fandom purity bullshit crossing my dash.

This blog is unapologetically pro AO3.

I support them and all they do, may they continue to do it for decades to come.

This last episode was pretty good, I loved how they handled the relationship between Shiori and Setsuna (and the other two kids). It was really cute.

Being honest (and keep in mind this is my personal opinion and experience with the anime), it was a lot better than how they handled Moroha and her teacher. Maybe it was because I felt it too rush and (unlike with Shiori) we meet her teacher in the same episode that died...but i felt nothing djoasoidsa while with Shiori the episode leave the feeling of "i want to see them reunited someday". 

"Sesshomaru-sama... one looks like me and the other looks just like you"

not to go all cringe on main but fictional characters have genuinely helped me through some of the worst shit in my life n i’ll forever be grateful to fiction for giving me comfort when i’ve needed it most
