Talk:Vol.2 Ch.161: 37F - Hell Train: Wooden Horse (2)/@comment-11698429-20150804150052/@comment-5693502-20150804163031

When it was implied that Hoaqin looked older, I felt like his current childish persona was justified; hungry children are inane, rowdy and short-term focused (just like Hoaqin). I think, once he does become complete, Hoaqin will become a lot more mature and 'whole'. At least I hope he does.

I don't think that he doesn't have a sense of self-preservation, I just feel like Hoaqin's just extremely arrogant. I mean, even in his weakened state, Hoaqin is still far more powerful than most (if not all) of the D-rank Regulars and he's well aware of that fact.

Yeah I think Hoaqin is the main antagonist of this arc I think. I'm sure a lot of people would have preferred Karaka to be the main antagonist, but it wouldn't be much of an arc if it was (how many panels do you need to show Karaka effortlessly killing every D-rank Regular on the Hell Train ?).
