#chapter 405

[red-sneakers]

The official translation missed the callback to Katsuki’s apology

The way 405 is officially translated, Katsuki sounds like he’s belittling Izuku again:

He’s NOT belittling Izuku. He’s making good on his promise to have Izuku’s back.

Here is the literal translation (courtesy of the amazing @pikahlua):

1

OFAに拭えねーもんは

あいつにぬぐえねーもんは

aitsu (kanji: OFA) ni nuguenee mon wa

"What he (read as: One For All) can't handle..."

2

こっちで拭うってなぁああ!!!

こっちでぬぐうってなぁああ!!!

kocchi de nuguu tte naaaa!!!

"I'll handle right here!!!"

And here is the part of the apology scene Katsuki is referencing:

And here is the fan translation:

Do you see how Shonen Jump missed the point???

HxH 405: Black Whale Holdem

Sorry, I got behind on these. I wish I could say the election took a lot out of me without people taking it the wrong way. But it did because I got back into managing local races which we won so yay. Hunter x Hunter was a bright spot during the OP break and these two are great together. Starting with the casino complete with bunny girls because Togashi loves Dragon Quest like I do.

This is instantly my favorite Hisoka moment. The peek behind the mask here in the casino. "I don't want bestiality (hunting monsters) or an orgy (war). I'm just a guy who wants a one-on-one so we can love each other to death." That's Hisoka. It's the most hardcore form of asexuality. Love is a battle to the death. We've known this about him forever but it's nice to hear there's nothing deeper. This man is amazing and so uniquely Hunter x Hunter, one of the few consistent threads from the start. So to see him really blow me away just setting the scene? Good shit.

Then we follow with a little Bonolenov love. Which is pretty dope. Didn't know he could do this kind of transformation but it makes sense. Likewise with him being really wary of Hisoka. He is useless against Bungee Gun.

Loved the ruminations about Chrollo given we follow up next chapter. Was the little scene of him a flashback? Hinting his basic plan for Meteor City paid off and they found the guy who murdered Sarasa? I liked the idea, make it a hub for dark web servers and you'll find the snuff film eventually. Grim, but realistic. Gross but of course he was publicly some great philanthropist.

Also got Nobu's group. Great thing for a chapter to have. The game with Morena is intensifying. Thought it was cool how Nobunaga thought of their organization as like the Troupe.

Then of course we chase it with a little of Morena's gang who are always ridiculous. Such a game-within-a-game for the Troupe and these mafiosos but I do like how it's folding into the main plot. Maybe it was good I waited a week to get to this one because it feels like it is laying the groundwork for the next.

No thank YOU for letting US live

Hair guy left the fridge :(

Chapapa is floating???

Anyway I hope both fights end in the next chapter
