Yoshihiro Togashi (冨樫義博) is a manga artist. Credited in Chinese translations as Fu Jian Yi Bo.
He began drawing manga at an early age; while he attended college, the publisher Shueisha recognized his talent. Togashi has authored numerous manga series in different genres during the past three decades. He is perhaps best known for writing and illustrating the YuYu Hakusho and Hunter × Hunter series, both of which have been published in the popular Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine. Togashi is married to Naoko Takeuchi, the author of Sailor Moon.
Picking up where the last volume of Hunter × Hunter left off, our main protagonist, Gon Freecss, is currently in the fourth phase of the Hunter Exam, where he and the remaining examinees must spend one week on Zevil Island and can only pass with six points if they can retain their own badges whilst obtaining each other’s. As Gon hopes to grab hold of Hisoka’s badge, the deceitful and narcissistic magician sets his sights on Gon’s newly found friends Kurapika and Leorio who have formed an alliance.
I love that I can finally read this series, it's been great so far. I didn't think we'd go from one combat tournament to another one, but its kinda par for the course for shounen manga. Still can't convince me that Leorio is supposed to be 19, are you kidding? That's a middle-aged man if I've ever seen one.
I loved the Hunter x Hunter anime, so diving into the next chunk of the manga was obviously a good time.
I really enjoyed seeing the rest of the Hunter Exam play out on the page, even knowing the outcome. Killua is still my favorite character, but Hisoka is a very close second. Getting more of Hisoka in his element at Heaven’s Arena was especially fun, and I’m very excited to continue on with the manga story.
Good grief!! Togashi drew Hisoka in a way that reminds me of Junji Ito's Fashion Model and I am shook. I also think the chapter 53 image of Hisoka reminds me of Final Fantasy 6's Kefka. Honestly these 2 combined really do equal Hisoka and it's terrifying!! Anyway this manga is whipping by faster than I remember and I am eating it up. I love it!!
I’m really enjoying my foray into the world of manga with the Hunter x Hunter series. It has become a bonding event for me and my 13 year-old son, Thomas. We read these books together and that makes them that much more special. A father sharing his love of reading and a son sharing his passion for this unique Japanese art form.
This was a good volume to read and reread. It doesn't skip pages nor does it censor it. I like how it shows a black and white edition of the book cover of each volume displaying where each volume ends and the next begins.
End of the hunter exam is genius. My boy Hanzo really gets to shine. Zoldyck arc is one of my least favourites but dammit it is a sleeper dope training arc that gets those boys where they need to be.
Está bastante bom! Depois da prova dos caçadores sinto que o enredo perdeu um pouco a emoção, porém, novos desafios foram lançados... É ver no que dará.
