This anime is a good way to make me forget about Hiatus X Hiatus.

By the way,


Re: Franklin

Since he was mentioned in the Omake, and his ability never actually gets expanded upon in the actual story (he got explained in supplemental pages), I'd like to mention something about Franklin's ability. I think it's ok at this point.

The way he uses his Nen is basically the most straightforward application of Emitter Hatsu you can think of. He simply fires Nen bullets from his fingers. -However- He cut off his own finger tips to create "caps" to turn his fingers into makeshift "guns". This was completely unnecessary, but he did it anyway. Aside from the fact that it makes him look badass, it also powers up the bullets. (in a way, the bullets are more powerful BECAUSE he looks more badass this way)

I felt the need to point this out because Franklin is one of the earliest examples of why a Nen user should tailor their abilities to their own personal preferences and personality as much as possible. Restrictions help with this, but also "modifications" such as these ones.
