Remember last time when I said we’re gonna have fun? Well, it’s because of this… chapter 337, it’s the worst chapter ever!
In artwork anyway…
If you are a scanlation follower then you’ve probably been familiar with badly made chapters. Little did people know, but these “terrible looking” chapters were redrawn later on for the collected releases. One exception was chapter (Hisoka vs Kastro) where it was the rough sketched version and not the finalized one. That one still looked okay, but
chapter 337 the worst offender. As you know, volume 32 which contains this chapter was released during Togashi’s two-year hiatus. As one who had believed in the idea of him taking his time writing his ideas and redrawing the unfinished chapters, this came as a harsh blow. Either he was really sick, or he had a better reason to leave this chapter in its half
@SSed quality and not going back to finish it up.
I don’t think there’s a need for comparison here because obviously the anime wins. You can take one look at it and tell the anime looks much better than this. So on to the plot…
This shot of the corridor does not appear. I wanted to to see the artworks
Hey, the Koala is back and here’s his backstory. Because it may come back in effect later on.
The rocket got replaced with the spiral stairs
The execution scene got replaced with this shot of the arm
The graveyard got replaced with a floating body
The decayed land got replaced with a look back at Koala's life cycle.
This looks bloody cool
Kite’s new voice is… good. Sounds fitting to his current body.
