Player limit per Joystation

Player limit per Joystation

In Greed Island arc we learn that unlimited number of players can use the same Joystation to play the game but since you need to save and only one save file can be created per memory card then in this case the number will be limited to 8 players per Joystation. Now looking at the Joystation itself, there are 4 base memory card slots so doesn't adding 2 multitaps ( 4 slots each ) make the total number of players 12? Why was it mentioned that the limit is capped at 8?

Transmutation & Conjuration

We know that Transmutation means giving your aura the characteristics of an actual substance. For example Hisoka gives his aura the characteristics of a gum ( stickiness and elasticity ) and Killua gives his aura the characteristics of electricity.

It's also been kind of established that changing your body to resemble something falls into the Conjuration affinity. Examples like Tsubobe, Kurton and Padaille ( the Heil Ly member who could turn his hands into different weapons ) yet there are two examples of two abilities that do that while being classified as Transmutation. Youpi's metamorphosis & Bisky's adult form. Why are these two abilities being classified as Transmutation abilities?

Youpi is kind of understandable and can be explained that since he is half a magical beast he can transform his body since magical beasts can do that, like Kiriko, the beasts Gon, Kurapika and Leorio encountered before the hunter exam. So Youpi's transformation can be classified as a genetic thing rather than nen. Also Bisky's adult form being classified as Transmutation makes little sense.

I know that Hunterpedia isn't an official source of info but some of the classifications kinda make little sense.

Troupe fortunes?

So, upon rereading the York New City arc again I found a couple of things that didn't set right with me.

First, Nobunaga's fortune stated that despite losing half of the members, the spider will still be unhindered. But when you take a look at Hisoka's original ( real ) fortune it states that the "year" aka spider is cursed after losing six members. Doesn't both fortunes contradict each other in a way? Both Hisoka's real & Nobunaga's fortune assumed that in addition to Uvo, the spider will lose 5 additional members aka half the spider ( Shal, Shizuko and Paku were pretty much confirmed at that time, Hisoka is also one but due to defection ( the spiders thought that he will also die because of the altered fortune ) and one more member that Phinks suspected to be either him, Feitan or Kortopi but they weren't sure cause they didn't receive fortunes.

Second, what did Chrollo confirm after asking Hisoka that he know about Kortopi's ability just "yesterday"? Was it like a way to confirm if Hisoka was telling the truth or not? Since if Hisoka knew about Kortopi's ability yet said that he didn't reveal it would put him in a weird situation. It will be weird to know about 9 for example yet reveal only 8, maybe Chrollo was setting a small trap to detect the faintest hint of lying or is there something else? Or maybe was it a way to make sure that Kurapika doesn't know about Kortopi's ability and in turn doesn't discover that the bodies were actually fake ( Hisoka did expose that anyway lol ).

What promise is Killua talking about here?

I might be forgetting something but when did Gon actually break his promise to Wing? He already avoided training in Ten or any Nen related training during the 2 months of recovery and was only training in Nen of the Flame which focuses only on meditation/mental side of things and Wing basically allowed him to do so. But Killua here is saying that Gon had already broken a promise but I can't remember which was it.

So I already own the physical volumes 32-38, The succession war arc so far, in physical volumes and honestly want to start collecting the 3 in 1 volumes cause I want to own my fav work of fiction of all time in physical format while also getting the cheaper option but I have a few questions since I haven't bought any 3 in 1 editions of any manga before.

- how does the spine hold up?

- I know that the paper will most likely be thinner and kinda transparent but does that present any problems while reading? Since HxH is very dense in terms of dialogue so I'm kind of concerned that things might look confusing.

- is their any paneling issues or text mistakes? I've seen multiple posts mention that there are some misprints here and there but I'm not sure.

Still a gem and one of the greatest and most underrated found footage movies of all time imo. It just feels so real and raw, the story takes an unexpected turn and the cast is genuinely great and entertaining. Would appreciate recommendations with similar vibes.

I'm absolutely in love with how dark and ominous the Succession War arc is so far and I'm really starting to believe that Togashi might be building something with the concept of Post Mortem Nen due to the multiple examples we've seen of it in this arc alone. Hisoka using it to revive himself, Camilla casually incorporating it in her ability, the seed urn that was conjured by the first Kakin king and the possibility of post mortem nen powering the whole ceremony, the Heil Ly getting more power through human sacrifice, Halkenburg putting his and his men's life on the line with every arrow fired, the Have nots and their curse abilities, Beyond's curses that also require death to activate... It's just the number of examples in this arc alone whether it's the use of post mortem nen to achieve something, the use of sacrifice to activate a curse or using death as an activation condition just gives me this creeping feeling that we're in for some even darker stuff down the path.

Anime or manga, this scene still hits like ton of bricks .. I don't think I've ever came across an arc that damaged me and left me drained emotionally like the Chimera Ants arc did. Still my fav arc in all of fiction and unless the Succession War arc manages to take that spot.
