Hunter x Hunter Cliffhanger Finally Brings Back the Phantom Troupe

Hunter x Hunter has finally returned with new chapters after many years of waiting for it to get back to action, and the newest cliffhanger has brought back the Phantom Troupe for a new fight after many years! Yoshihiro Togashi is finally back in action with the next major phase of the Succession Contest arc, and this means that many of the familiar faces are back in action as well after one of the longest hiatuses in the series to date. But with this major return to form, fans have also been through right back into the thick of it all.

Now that the series has been moving forward with new chapters, fans have seen some major moves from the characters that have not been in action for quite a long time. Not only has the series brought Hisoka back to the spotlight after spending so many years searching for the villain within the Black Whale, but the newest chapter of the series has brought the Phantom Troupe back for a new fight. But it's not that they are going to be facing off against Hisoka just yet, they have a new enemy to take out first.

Why is the Phantom Troupe Back in Hunter x Hunter Chapter 392? 

Chapter 392 of Hunter x Hunter has made some major moves among many of the mafia families as the hunt for Hisoka has gotten more intense. At the same time, the Phantom Troupe has made themselves not only a target of Hisoka but the other mafia families as well. The room they were in had been tagged by a Nen ability from a Heil-Ly family assassin several chapters ago, but the Troupe had been waiting to make their move until they had as much information as possible. But now the action has come to them.

The final moments of the chapter see this assassin breaking into the office they had been holding out on him, and Phinks Magcub, Feitan Portor, and Nobunaga Hazama are readying for their first fight in many years as they are completely willing to take down anyone who comes their way. Now it's just a matter of waiting until we see them cross paths with Hisoka again.
