Hunter x Hunter Chapter 391 sees Morena’s camp moved against amidst fan celebration of series return
Despite Hunter x Hunter Chapter 391 marking a particularly momentous return to regular serialization for the series, Togashi continues with the story as planned. While one may critique such an approach for not making the first issue back more memorable, fans seem happy for the series’ approach in its return.
Fans are praising the focus on Hinrigh Biganduffno and his Biohazard ability, which allows any device or weapon he touches to change into a living creature. These objects also retain their original functionality as living creatures, while also being able to be manipulated at will by Hinrigh himself.
Many are excited that Hunter x Hunter Chapter 391 shows off the Biohazard ability, with Hinrigh turning handcuffs into pigeons and a camcorder into a kitten. Both applications were extremely well-written, and were sensible, logical, and enjoyable to witness.
Despite this issue not being the flashiest in series’ history, fans are happy that Togashi is ready to continue the story and pick up right where he left off. While three new characters from the Morena camp are introduced in the issue, only Quorolle and Deveralles end up surviving an encounter with Hinrigh, with Padouille falling prey to Biohazard.
Fans are also specifically praising Hinrigh’s use of Biohazard as it relates to his encounter with Padouille. The Xi-Yu family underboss certainly puts on a show in the fight, using his handcuffs-turned-pigeons to perfectly restrain and trap Padouille as the situation called for it. Without a doubt, it is one of the most versatile Nen techniques in the series.
Beyond this, fans are generally praising the Nen power system for being so inventive, with Hinrigh’s use of Biohazard in the issue particularly exemplifying this. The demonstration of Biohazard’s offensive, defensive, and reconnaissance uses throughout Hunter x Hunter Chapter 391 and 390 seems to have left a particularly memorable impression on fans.
With as feverish a fanbase as it is, it’s no surprise that Hunter x Hunter Chapter 391’s unofficial release alone has caused such a stir. Upon the issue’s official release this coming Sunday, October 23, 2022, fans will no doubt be taking over Twitter with their discussion of the series.
