lucilferal:

i think it was real sexy of togashi to make chrollo the head of twelve apostles leader of thieves who meet in an abandoned church and have judas hisoka turn against them because he wants to be like satan and challenge god to fight chrollo who uses the bible a book to harness his power

also fun fact: the cross on chrollo’s jacket is the st. peter’s cross. st. peter believed he was unworthy of dying the same way as jesus, so he asked to be crucified upside down.

I’m not sure what the blood symbolizes (*starts wracking my catholic-school-educated brain*) but i have a feeling it’s connected to the two “keys of heaven” associated with st. peter (who FYI founded the catholic church after jesus’ death and was the first pope) & the “blood of christ” (the ceremonial wine taken during catholic masses)

perhaps… chrollo’s two “keys to heaven” are bloodshed, hence the requiem he holds for uvogin after his death (and the impending massacre in the manga, in response to shalnark’s and kortopi’s death)

winners, losers, and requiems:

an analysis of chrollo in the aftermath of his battle with hisoka

⚠️ this post contains major manga spoilers! ⚠️

it’s really interesting how chrollo truly didn’t give a fuck about dying when kurapika captured him (his confidence was also boosted by the fortune)

yet he refused to fight hisoka until he was 100% certain he’d win

he clearly enjoys the game of fighting, and even took risks to try to steal zeno’s nen during their battle:

but he reminds me of illumi in how he closely calculates the odds — illumi doesn’t fight, he assassinates.

I wonder if chrollo already suspected hisoka would be fatal trouble to the troupe if he died — that’s why he kept hisoka on a string for so long until he KNEW he’d kill him

so the murderous rage he feels now must not only be from the pain of losing two more of his beloved spiders, but from the guilt that it happened because he failed to protect them

and adding insult to injury, hisoka had said this before their battle:

let’s also take a moment to remember his motivations. from the beginning, the only thing that has truly mattered to chrollo — even more than treasure, winning, or his own life — is the legacy of his spider:

so in the end, did chrollo really win the match? yes, he killed hisoka, but hisoka 1) came back to life, 2) snapped off two legs of the spider (basically chrollo’s family), and 3) halted all troupe activities — including stealing! —

— until they tracked hisoka down and killed him once and for all.

now, both the troupe and illumi are wrapped up in hisoka’s game of catch — and with hisoka overturning his victory by resurrection, killing off two of his troupe members, and vowing to destroy the spider, it’s no wonder chrollo’s out for another requiem.

i’ve seen very few appreciatation posts for this fucking G right here. so ima do it my DAMN SELF.

Isaac Netero is an old man in a bad ass anime. So it goes with out saying that this dude is the EMBODIMENT OF GANGSTER.

We are first introduced to him in the first arc of the series when Gon and his friends are in the hunter exams.

One of the key moments we find out about his awesomeness is when he tempts Gon and Killua into a game where they have to take a ball away from him.

Simple right?

NO. NOT SIMPLE. They couldn’t even touch him. And it took Gon hours before he was able to make Netero use his OTHER HAND.

YES. YOU READ THAT RIGHT. NETERO WAS DODGING AN ASSASSIN AND A BOY THAT GREW UP IN THE WILD WITHOUT TOUCHING THEM.

Now, maybe he’s just a really fast old man. He can’t be that strong. I mean look how cute he is.

HAHAHAHAHA SIKE STUPID.

In the Chimera Ant arc, we see that this old ass brittle boned dinosaur takes two other skilled professional Hunters to survey the area.

At this time they are taking out squadrons and squadrons of these people killing giant insects. Surely the three of them are doing this?

NO. MY BOY NETERO IS BODYING THESE CREATURES. BY. HIM. SELF.

The hunters are simply trapping them and bringing them to him.

In this arc, we all know about Meruem aka the King and his royal guards.

This king is supposed to be the pinnicale of evolution. The strongest creature that would rule over all other life forms. He’s the strongest of the strong, the peak of the social triangle and the dude at the top of the food chain.

These dudes: Youpi, Pouf, and Pitou (in that order) are directly under him. Badass dudes. Super strong.

Getting back on track: Netero’s job was to take on the king. Everyone else that was there; Gon, Killua, Knuckle, Shoot, Morel and Knov, were meant to separate the guards and the King.

They succeeded for the most part and Netero went to go take on the being that was supposed to be the greatest creature of all time.

He boxed with him fr. Went toe to toe with the king. And he was doing a great fucking job. He was slapping the king around like a ℬℐℋ. Granted it wasn’t doing much damage but he was doing it.

At some point Meruem took off his leg and sat down, thinking surely this old ass dude would give up because he would bleed to death if not.

SIKE. MY DUDE NETERO WAS LIKE IM NOT DONE IN FACT IVE ONLY JUST BEGONE. AND BOOM.

HE SLAPPED HIS LEG AND MADE IT

• STOP
• BLEEDING.

THATS THE EPITOME OF GANGSTER. After he stops his leg from bleeding they fight a little more. My dude gets his arm ripped off.

Now, Netero’s fighting supposedly requires him to place his hands together at the center of his chest in a prayer stance. WHICH ALSO MEANS HES BEEN FIGHTING THE FASTEST THING ALIVE BY PRAYING BEFORE HIS EVERY MOVE.

Now certainly, he can’t fight because he can’t pray. And again you’d be wrong. Netero hits us with some bomb ass philosophical shit before breaking out his ultimate.

Unfortunately, his ultimate only damaged the king and his ultimate move drained whatever life force he had left. Now surely he’s done. He’s as good as dead. He failed.

AND AGAIN YOUD BE WRONG. DONT UNDERESTIMATE MY BOY!

My dude kills him self. (RIP Netero ) AND IT SETS OFF A BOMB IN HIS BODY!!!! And for the first time the king is like shitting his fucking pants cause holy shit Netero is fucking scary.

HE BLOWS HIMSELF UP AND THE KING TO A FUCKING CRISP. HE BURNT THIS DUDE INTO BUG BACON MY GUY. BUT NOT ONLY DID HE BLOW UP EVERYTHING BUT THAT SHIT BLEW UP IN THE SHAPE OF A ROSEEEEEE SHIT WAS EXQUISITE

Unfortunately, his 2 bumsss guards give away their power and are able to bring the king back to life even stronger than before. Bum ass fucking dudes. Which means not only did the other hunters fail to distract the guards, but that in hindsight means Netero failed too, right?

Do i even have to say it?

My boy Netero thought way ahead. He planned all this shit out. THE BOMB WAS POISONOUS.

SO NOT ONLY DID HE DEFEAT THE KING ONCE, NOT ONLY DID THE POISON FROM THE BOMB KILL TWO OF HIS ROYAL GUARDS, BUT NETERO ALSO POISONED KING 2.0 WHICH WAS STRONGER THAN THE KING BEFORE!!

Intelligence? Untouched. Form? Fucking immaculate my guy. Grace? Like non other.

And the cutest motherfucker on this show.

Netero did more than what he was supposed to. And even in death my guy fucked shit up.

He is beauty.

He is grace.

But most importantly: His 100- Type Guanyin Bodhisattva will bitch slap you in the fucking face.

He’s one of the most badass motherfuckers in all of anime.

Respect to him and his ultimate fucking drip.

Stop sleeping on my boy. He deserves everything.

I am thinking of an anime-turned manga with an x in the title. it also has a dodgeball fight and one of the characters protecting a woman and her baby on a boat. one of the main characters is an assassin.
