It’d be a tragedy for this series to not cover the other princes, don’t be discouraged

I really like this series! I love the succession war arc and any discussion about it is always so interesting, because it’s so complex. I think Zhang is one of the most intriguing princes- all the other high ranking princes have very extreme personalities, and it makes me wonder what the catch is with Zhang.

To reiterate what others are saying in the comments, these videos covering the princes are really good, and I'd like to see videos for each of the princes, even the less interesting ones, because I think you'd still find something meaningful to say. Your specific style of in-depth analysis for HxH is the sort of content I haven't seen anyone else making on KZfaq, which I think suits the show's target audience well. It's a shame these videos on the princes are underperforming compared to some of your other videos, and I think that's just an unfortunate consequence of HxH's fanbase being divided between manga readers and those who stopped at the end of the anime, rather than a reflection of the videos' quality. I think your channel deserves to be more popular, and I've liked all of the videos I've watched, so if you wanted to post videos that are specifically designed to get more views, I wouldn't be opposed to it, because I think you'd find a way to make them equally engaging and worth watching, and you do deserve to get compensated for all the work you put into these, but at the same time, please don't get so fixated on numerical success that you end up getting burnout or only producing content you think will do well that you don't personally enjoy.

If you don't want to spend time making a whole video covering each of the less prominent (or less alive) princes, you could knock them out in just one. You could do, say, princes 6-8 between Tubeppa and Halkenberg and maybe another one for the child princes 10-14. Or you could even do one for all the dead princes so far and analyze how they each lost the contest and what possible implications their deaths might have for the rest of the royal family.

More of these and more videos on jus your thoughts about hxh in general. Your analysis is some of the best out there nd hxh needs more deeper tho let’s ti break down. Keep up the good work man. I’m here for it no matter the engagement lol A little side note. I’ve noticed the deeper the analysis, the better hxh gets. I believe this is the case due to it being a series that thrives on interpretation and questions that don’t necessary have answers.

I’m certainly hoping that the GSB does grant zhang lei some advantage, possibly giving whoever inserts the coin extra abilities. It would be a great representation of how zhang lei values patience, with the longer that you hold onto the coin, the greater the value of ability you could get.

I guess the only questions left are if Zhang Lei will learn nen and of he does in what way will he combine his SGB and ability. I see a lot of potential if he gets a manipulation ability with his SGB.
@theoverthinker348
@theoverthinker348 14 күн бұрын
While not impossible, I do heavily doubt it. Unless he's a Terror-sandwich level (or somewhat comparable) genius, even if he were to start to learn now, he'd only get a feeling for Ten most likely, if that.

I actually think the coins increase in value more based on the favours you have done for Zhang Lei. Note that Zhang Lei asked Coventopa what he thinks his Coin does and Coventopa answered truthfully. It is possible that is what made Coventopa's coin increase its value. Tenfutori also completed the mission of completing the Nen class and that might have immediatelly increased the value of his coin when it was given. I think this makes more sense because: 1) It'd make coin holders more likely to try to act in behalf of Zhang Lei's interests, which I think fits his personality and the idea that they are "badges" to reward his subjects. 2) 8 days just seems a bit arbitrary to me even with the 8 pattern in the Dharmachakram 3) Waiting 8 days limits a bit what you can do narratively with new coins. 4) He gave Melody a coin and a mission of playing for him. This could be a test or another hint. As to how trading the coins works, I think they might have some kind of healing, buffing, or damage reflection power, if we judge by who has been getting them: they are all Nen users, so the coins giving nen abilities doesn't quite work. And if we consider what is happening to Fuugetsu, I think Melody might need something like that.

@theoverthinker348 13 күн бұрын
Hmm, the issue is that: 1) Coventoba lied (by omission) in not mentioning he had picked up Zhang's GSB's coin on the first day. Furthermore, he feigned ignorance initially when Zhang noticed the coins on the second day, saying something along the lines of "there's no need to speak to non-Nen users about Nen" 2) Tenftory wasn't in possession of Zhang's coin while he attended the classes, but was awarded a coin that had already changed from 1 to 10 while ib Zhan'g possession.

Well, if we KNOW one thing about this Conjurer is that he will never use Transmutaiton. Cause Togashi doesnt do Neughbourlyness with those 2 Affinities.

I wonder if those Coins will gain more power if the 3rd Prince dies and those coins have traces of Post-mortem Nen if the person has coin meets certain qualifications given by Prince or violates qualifications for taking the coin without permission?

Ok last comment. Much as I love zhang lei, he is very unlikely to win imo. He has a few advantages(underworld conmections, relationships with kurapika and melody, relatively high standing, biggest beneficiary of kurapikas stalemate, low profile atm), but I think his undoing will be that Benjamins guard took his first coin, thus tipping off benjamin that they are increasing in value, and therefore ensuring that benjamin knows that the longer Zhang lei stays in the contest, the stronger he becomes. I worry that this will lead to a target on his back, and his ultimate demise.

He's got the plan and waiting compared to the way his older siblings are acting making enemies. Could easily win the war by keeping his side high in defense while the rest fight. His coin power he's basically thinking of the future when he hasn't figured out how to stay alive in the present if he gets taken out

@@slevinchannel7589 I continue to claim that the majority of body transformations are transmutation-based, which would mean we've at least seen Tsubone utilize a transutation-conjuration-based hatsu. Kite and Hanzo are a Transmutation-midpoint Conjurer and Conjuration-midpoint Transmuter respectively.

@@theoverthinker348 Yeah but the Uncertainty is killlling me so heres obvious points who unfortunetly have to exist: -Youpis Power is totally unexplained and may as well still be just Enhancement. Enhancement of his GENES. His species may as well just give him the natural Power to transform a bit and he enhances that. A Squid may be able to enhanc his Ink-Production but a HUman cant enhance that for themsleves cause theres nothing there so nothing to enhance! The whole Mystery is also not helped by shis sheer Talent, s H-CK he MAY EVEN manipulate himself despite being a Transmuter. His Talent almost by-itslef destroys every good-fun one can have questioning this Riddle. Sure seems like that possible: if you just havee a certain Uniqueness, you seem to be capable of enhacing it. -Training in Enhancement or maybe even Emission can quite-possible move you on the Nen-Ring towards Enhancement, which may as well be the Case for Kite and others - Kite, who even you admit doesnt seem to have Transmutation used in his Hatsu AT ALL
