After his fight with Uvo, Kurapika says "I've spent too long in that state" and stumbles for a second. It implies it's quite physically demanding on him x) Thanks for the awesome reaction!

[@AniMageNeBy]

@@cinnamon2269 And in the (much) later chapters, which aren't animated yet, we see he pays a very heavy toll for it if something goes wrong when using Emperor Time.

[@slimshazy2819]

@CarlieAndAnge Just so you guys are aware, Togashi recently released an updated Nen chart that introduces "Duel Nen Affinities". In it, Kurapika is now officially recgonized as a Specialist-Conjurer, which is why he's able to lean into being a Specialist when his eyes are scarlet. In addition, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, there is a HUGE condition behind Kurapika's Emperor Time ability that is NOT shown in the anime. I only say this because we may never seen the last 80+ manga chapters ever in anime form, so it's better for you guys to be aware that Kurapika doesn't just get am OP ability for no cost at all. He must sacrifice 1 hour of his life every second he uses Emperor Time. Even just 10 minutes is equivalent to losing a month of your estimated lifespan. But, to Kurapika, that lost time is just a means to an end to accomplishing his goal of defeating the Phantom Troupe.

[@AniMageNeBy]

[@nagijuu]

uvo is the physically strongest in the troupe, so if he couldn’t break the chains the rest of them wouldn’t be able to.

[@hardikkikani2119]

You both were correct. Kurapika is a Conjurer for around 95% or more of his life. He only becomes specialist for a while during certain situations where he can use his rage in control as he was in this fight. He also mentioned that in the end of the fight that he cannot stay in that state for a while.

[@Vael221]

It's also been confirmed in more recent year by Togashi that nen affinities are a more complex than just "Character is X" with a lot of people being somewhere in between two. For example Killua is actually a Enhancer/Transmuter split, and in Kurapkia's case he is a Conjurer/Specialist split.

[@PROTVGONIST]

It’s not his rage per se. It’s when his eyes turn red, which *SPOILER WARNING FOR CHANNEL REACTORS* he can control by will now.

[@turbulentcough]

specialist ≠ emperor time. he is a specialist as long as his eyes are red. but prolonged usage of emperor time, his specialist ability wears him out (you'll know why if you've read the manga)

[@yapnog603]

There is a drawback for Emperor's Time but it was not revealed in the anime yet. It was mentioned in the manga tho. I will not spoil it for you guys unless you want that information.

[@AniMageNeBy]

We already get a little hint now, since he stumbled and said: "I've remained too long in this state". But, indeed, the full price he has to pay when something goes wrong while using Emperor Time only becomes obvious much later on the...ermm... "boat". Which isn't adapted in an anime, as of yet.

[@MichaelAury]

Emperor Time (Specialist abilities cannot be learned and are natural/inherent in the user) Condition: Eyes turn scarlet (limited time and very draining, Kurapika had to practice turning his eyes red at will) Chain Jail Condition 1: Spiders only Condition 2: The punishment for breaking condition one is his death In short, the more difficult it is to fulfill a condition (Emperor Time), or the more conditions you dictate to use an ability (Chain Jail) the more powerful your Nen ability is.

[@jardanivito]

Uvo says to Kurapika, after he punches him, that only an Enhancer can take his attacks, meaning Kurapika was using Emperor Time already, my guess is that he used Emperor Time for the entire fight, since at the end he says he used it for "too long". Reallistically, this fight must have been at most 10 minutes in HxH time.

[@Automatedresponsebot5]

He for sure was using ET the whole fight. His strength plus already using IN to hide the chains is an indicator too!

[@drei1194]

He could definitely be, another indicator is his eyes since whenever he is on that state his ET triggers and he could've activated it already but we don't really much see it because he didn't took the lens sooner but yeah lens don't affect his eyes ability, it only hides the color anyway.

[@JoaoPaulo-rn6bf]

Your "guess"? He literally took out his contact lenses during the fight and showed Uvo. It's obvious he was using emperor time the whole time.

[@143angeli]

It’s not really that Kurapika’s the strongest, it’s just that the risk he took or the condition he set for his ability is pretty high (his life). That’s one of the most realistic feature of nen, the risks are real and the paybacks are quite huge as well (all within realistic proportion; at least in anime standard). And yep, there’s nothing wrong with loving the villains in this show since Togashi(the mangaka) is a genius when it comes to creating amazing characters. Even in his other work, Yu Yu Hakushu, one of my fave characters was one of the main villains (Sensui).

[@bloody5081]

I mean... the condition isn't even that high for his nen. The only condition/restriction he has for his nen is that he can't use chain jail on anyone but the troupe because otherwise he'll die. Every other ability he has is still broken as hell and he can use them whenever.... and he has only been training for a few months while Uvo has been training for decades and the dude is a master enhancer. Kurapika was already no diffing a master enhancer before using chain jail while being a newbie. Kurapika is just that broken.

[@hattrihanzo3595]

​@@bloody5081 But chain jail put them on Zetsu, so it just become a normal person(even tho he still has incredible strength) against a nen user with an empowered ability specially against Genei Ryodan's members

[@Exter98]

​@@hattrihanzo3595That was only towards the end. Most of the fight is without chain jail so it makes no sense for Kurapika to match Uvo in a 1v1, his abilities are too OP for no reason. As much as ppl say HxH is special because nen makes sense, I find that an exaggeration. Kurapika fight is ALMOST as much of an arsepull as any other shonen. In an ideal world, Uvo would dominate this fight instead of Togashi trying to make Kurapika look super cool, instead he would look weak and barely surviving the attacks (only because he's specialist) but then we learn he was setting up chain jail secretly and he dominates Uvo after that point. That would have me satisfied and make this arc 10/10.

[@sena3089]

@@Exter98 uvo was not fighting with his whole strength because he underestimated kurapika and that's why kurapika was dominating at first - when uvo decided to go full out against him he actually managed to hurt kurapika really badly, but couldn't do anything further because of chain jail.

[@mrcx6142]

Uvo: "So before I take a piss, why did you bring the shovel to the fight?" Kurapika: "I'll need it."

[@Totaldeltako]

The reason Kurapika is so strong is he staked his life to only use chain jail on troupe members. Chain jail is op because of the condition that as soon as you restrain someone with it it takes their nen away. It's strength is also boosted making it stronger than normal chains because of the condition. He can still use all other abilities on anyone else. His other Op power is Emperor Time which allows him mastery over every type of nen which gives him the ability to use the healing chain and fight with the strength of an enhancer which is why the first punch didn't break his arm. The drawback is that Emperor Time can only be used while his eyes are red which happens while having elevated emotions. It pretty much only happens while fighting spiders as his emotions probably won't be strong enough during any other fight. He is pretty specialized to fighting the spiders but that's it.

[@LixienXIII]

You're right but I think I remember Kurapika saying at some point in this arc that he can turn on Scarlet eyes at will now.

[@Totaldeltako]

@@LixienXIII Yeah, you might be right about that. I probably forgot a few details by now.

[@SIDASOKA]

​@@TotaldeltakoI think u forgot the even bigger risk. Using emperor time takes away his life span depending on how long he uses it. I think it was 1 month of life for every second/minute or it was 1 yr for every 10 minutes. But it's a drastic and should only be used as a final trump card of situation.

[@lillpluten]

[@mrpeanutbutter6817]

@@SIDASOKA It's 1 hour of lifespan per second spent on Emperor Time. So using it for 10 minutes equates to losing 25 days of your lifespan.

[@mauricioaguilarpineda8913]

1 minute = 1 day

[@beige_projection]

Yeah even without manga spoilers. If you think about it more at this point in the anime, Kurapika's power actually has so many drawbacks. Chain Jail only usable to Spider members. Emperor Time only usable when his eyes are scarlet. It drains him when he uses it - The fight with Uvo was likely less than 10 minutes in real time. Compared to other specialists who can almost freely use their powers, Kurapika's power is insanely handicapped by a lot of conditions.

[@gunjchowwiwat8357]

Nah. It's plot. That drawback was put on later.

[@chrisp1906]

[@xXSamir44Xx]

Still more respectful than what Uvo would have done.

[@Arkayjiya]

Emperor Time is pretty overpowered but it also has a huge drawback that is never explained in the anime. It fits well with the theme of Kurapika taking huge risks to reap huge rewards like chain jail. Also even when Emperor Time is active, it doesn't make Kurapika the strongest at everything, it just means that all the nen categories are on the same level as his conjurer abilities. Let's give an example: If Kurapika spends "1000 aura" in his nen attacks (let's call a unit of nen energy "aura" for this), usually if he uses a punch, the punch will only have 600 aura worth of strength since conjurer only have 60% of enhancement mastery and enhancement is the category that determine a punch's strength. Now in Emperor time, his 1000 aura punches actually have 1000 aura's worth of power. But compared to Uvoguin who's a much stronger nen user and can throw punches as, let's say 3000 aura, Kurapika is still a way worse Enhancer despite having 100% mastery. The mastery just mean he can use any technique with pretty good results (like enhanced healing, or blocking a punch from Uvo without dying immediately) but Uvo will still break his bones in a fistfight even though they're both at 100% enhancement mastery. That's why at the end he says he needed to test his strength against Uvo in Zetsu. He needed to make sure that his physical strength + 100% enhanced fist was strong enough to beat Uvo's physical strength. The fact that he even had to test that shit and that his reinforced fist didn't instantly annihilate Uvo should tell you how much stronger Uvo's enhancement is than Kurapika's.

[@juliangiersbach6983]

that Meme 😂 he brings the shovel to the fight 😂

[@gorillack_japan]

Condition and condition are written in Japanese as 誓約（セイヤク）and 制約（セイヤク）, which read the same, but the meaning is changed by the different kanji, meaning "constraint" and "pledge. The title of HUNTER x HUNTER is often a play on words like this! In short, by making a vow to limit the use of the aura, the power of Nen (telekinesis) becomes stronger, but it also places restrictions on oneself, like a double-edged sword.

[@youtubeuser6725]

When Kurpaika has red eyes (that can turn with strong emotions as you mentioned) he turns into a specialist. A specialit is about having a power outside of all other nen categories. So for example neon, the Boss's daughter that can forsee the future, is a specialist. Her ability is very unique The same with Kurpika, when he turns into a specialist, he can develop any power he wants outside of the other 5 categories. So he devloped the power of "Emporer Time" which is his specialist power that allows him to master %100 of all other nen categories as if he was born natrually with these categories

[@ScuttleSage]

Kurapika took the BEAST title from Uvo. 😂

[@runayswarts970]

-Hope this is a good explanation for the Kurapika vs Uvogin fight and why it was so one sided Kurapika is a conjurer by nature and in a "normal" world would definitely have lost to someone as Strong as Uvogin, especially considering their experience gap with nen. There are 3 points to consider in Kurapika's win: 1) Emperor time ability - when his eyes are scarlet he is classified as specialist and basically becomes as proficient in all nen categories as he is in his own conjurer category. Therefore he was proficient enough in the enhancer catagory to block Uvogin's attacks (although Uvogin is still the better enhancer and would win if the fight was purely an enhancer fight). This is also why he had the ability to heal his arm so well which a conjurer at Kurapika's level would not usually be able to do. However emperor time is not "overpowered" as it has major downsides, it is extremely draining on his body and kills him slowly as he uses it 2) Judgement chain ability - the one he used to wrap around Uvogin's heart. He sets a condition which if broken by the person will kill them. The importance lies in that Kurapika used this ability on himself to set the condition which makes his next ability so powerful (Chain Jail) 3) Chain Jail ability - The one he uses to constrict Uvogin. It forces the trapped person into a state of Zetsu, meaning they can't use nen and would have to break the chain through sheer physical strength. The condition Kurapika placed on himself is that he will die if chain jail is used on anyone who is not a phantom troupe member. Such an extreme condition as staking his life massively improved the power of the technique (very likely that Uvogin would have broken free if the ability was not enhanced by the condition). Downside is that you can only master a limited number of abilities in your lifetime, and now one of those abilities can't be used on 99.999% of the population So to summarize, if Kurapika was fighting someone as strong as Uvogin who is not a phantom troupe member he would have lost

[@detectivemittons9020]

I know the patreon is ahead but obligatory emperor time explanation: He does not get 100% in every category, he increases them to 100% potential of a conjurer. Aka he temporarily becomes a nen master in the normal 20% diminishing returns. That's why Uvo couldn't break his arm at 20 or 50~, he had to be above Kurapika's max 60% for enhancement. Hope this helps!

[@Queez92]

When Kurapika turns specialist he becomes a "master of all nen categories", not a "master of all nen". He still has to learn all the ways to wield nen like anyone else. He's simply just not restricted to his born category, so he can learn enhancer techniques just as well as an enhancer could. Basically, he can do what Kastro couldn't. About the drawback, you can go back to right after the fight and you'll see Kurapika say "I spent too long in that state" while looking tired.

Kurapika ORIGINALLY a Conjurer, just when his eyes red he became a Specialist. His Emperor Time put heavy burden on his body. He will sleep longer or fainted at random times with heavy fever accumulated on how long his ability used. If he's fainted while using his ability, the ability will stay active and the backlash accumulation will put on the next time he sleep or fainted. So if he doesn't have any comrade to protect him while getting the backlash, it's really easy to kill him. And using fake people to pose as Spider giving him instant death if he use Chain Jail on the fake. His ability had a lot of risky consequences so i won't say it's OP

to be fair any capable fighter using nen can do the condition thing that kurapika did, killua and gon potential is way higher then kurapika by a huge margin, hes also restricting himself since hes powers only work on the phantom troupe.

Kurapika only has 100% proficiency in every Nen category when using Emperor's time, but he can't use 100% of that nen category. For example, a specialist can only use 40% of enhancer's abilities and would lose to an actual enhancer in terms of power and efficiency. Also Kurapika being 100% proficient in every Nene category is his specialist ability; it's not due to him being a specialist.

i like hisoka because anytime hes on screen you know hes bringing chaos and who doesnt love chaos in a show

This fight shows well how Nen fights aren’t all about physical strength or the amount of aura. Uvogin’s strength and aura are incredibly powerful, but it won’t matter if he underestimates a smart fighter like Kurapika who has complex techniques. Techniques and how a character uses them are so often as important as strength and this is why most nen users don’t want to reveal their technique unless they have something to gain from it.

It's not that being Specialist means you can wield all other categories at 100%. You need to separate between Nen's 'quality' and 'ability'. For example, an Enhancers are able to increase their physical attack and defense greatly and are best suited for melee combat. A proficient Enhancer who also takes good care of their body can make it far more durable than a tank and generate the force of a missile with one blow. Enhancement is also the most balanced category. It allows users to spread themselves evenly between offense and defense and become very powerful using only simple abilities. While Transmuter means a person can change the properties of their aura to mimic something else or replicate specific attributes. Holy Chain (or Healing Thumb Chain) is one of the Conjuror chains that he crated, by its ability is definitely an Enhancer ability, so Kurapika supposed to find it's so difficult to wield this ability at maximum potential (60% is the limit). But Emperor Time allow him to break those limits so that he can used this ability just like he was an Enhancer Master. So Emperor Time is activate only when his eyes turn red. If he wasn't in Scarlet Eye state, he won't be able to use Emperor Time to break those limits. But the Emperor Time also has its drawback which stated clearly in the manga later on (not in the Yorknew Arc), but in the anime you can imply through that "I spent too much time in that state...", which doesn't look good for Kurapika that much.

[@AlphazFaye]

7:30 no need to bluff about it. You all were wrong cuz he is both

[@Tye-Dyed]

The limitation on Kurapika's Specialist abilities is the physical toll it takes on him to maintain that state for an extended period of time.
