Togashi’s Ongoing Saga
Togashi continues to dedicate immense effort to Hunter x Hunter, with Chapter 407 highly anticipated by fans. This arc, centered around the Succession Contest on the Black Whale, features a web of intertwining plots that contribute to the overall narrative depth.
Expect a significant spotlight on the Phantom Troupe, particularly regarding their leader, Chrollo Lucilfer, whose fate appears to be entwined with the unfolding events of this arc.
The Phantom Troupe’s Engagement
- Dogman and Sodom’s Kidnapping Scheme
- Feitan and Phinks Track Down the Heil-Ly’s Hideout
In Chapter 404, Morena and her associates plot an abduction, with Dogman, her most capable operative, at the forefront. His unique ability allows him to detect a person’s Nen type and identity by getting close enough to them. He will be partnered with Sodom during the operation targeting Halkenburg’s funeral procession, aiming to abduct someone still untrained in Nen.
Although Chapter 404 leaves the victim’s identity a mystery, previous hints suggest the target could be affiliated with 4th Prince Tserriednich’s private army, who may be present at the memorial. The suspense surrounding Togashi’s plans continues to build.
As Chapter 407 approaches, the unfolding action at the funeral procession promises to captivate fans. Meanwhile, Feitan and Phinks of the Phantom Troupe are infiltrating the Heil-Ly hideout. Gained access between tiers of the Black Whale enables their approach, despite the potential threat posed by the Heil-Ly discovering the transmitter turned oyster by Hinrigh. A confrontation seems likely, although their intent remains defensive, hanging in the balance of the group’s conflicting objectives.
Wang, the Cha-R under-boss, could complicate matters further, as he appears to be colluding with Morena. The intricate plots surrounding the Phantom Troupe and Heil-Ly are heating up, hinting at major developments ahead.
Nobunaga’s individual journey has seen excellent character growth, and readers can expect to see more of him soon.
Chrollo’s Bold Scheme
Chrollo Lucilfer takes center stage in this arc, most recent appearing in Chapter 406 using his new Nen ability, Love Dial 6700. His ambitious goal is to steal Kakin’s national treasures, which could amplify his Skill Hunter powers and prepare him for a showdown against Hisoka.
“Even if I should die… it’s the very idea that will instill fear of the Spider that I designed..!!” — Chrollo Lucilfer
Chapter 407 is expected to delve deeper into Chrollo’s plans as he ascends the tiers of the Black Whale. Speculations suggest he may aim to interact with Kurapika, although details are yet to be confirmed. His rematch with Hisoka looms ominously, especially given the peril Hisoka poses to the Troupe, targeting their members one by one.
The Kakin Princes and Kurapika’s Role
Halkenburg’s Ongoing Scheme
Togashi’s narrative intricacies navigate through various plotlines, with potential transitions back to the Kakin Princes anticipated in Chapter 407. Notably, Prince Halkenburg, having assumed a new identity, strives to assert his influence while chaos unfolds during his funeral procession.
Additionally, the plot concerning Prince Fugetsu escalates as Melody’s intentions to eliminate Prince Luzurus create tension that could possess significant consequences for Fugetsu’s fate.
“The problem is how the rope gets cut! The rope held this balance for so long may seem fragile, but is actually strong…” — Kurapika
Kurapika’s involvement also gains momentum as he initiates a Nen workshop and prepares to disclose Queen Oito’s letter, possibly inciting reactions from the princes, particularly Camilla.
Release Date for Chapter 407
With no breaks in sight, Hunter x Hunter maintains its momentum. Readers can enjoy the series through Viz Media, with free access on Shonen Jump and Manga Plus. Chapter 407 is scheduled for release on November 17th, 2024.
