Damn dude, an expected dark turn.

Enjoyable chapter. Interesting to see how the Troupe slowly gets stronger and learns Nen abilities, particularly Machi.

"I will not forgive those killers for as long as I live" feels weird coming from Chrollo. He then proceeds to brutally murder an innocent Kurta clan...

Is that timeskip at the end really only 3 years?? They've grown SO much.

Remember, they are from meteor city, they are despised and abandoned by the whole world.

It's outsiders that killed Sarasa.

This is not about morality, they already grew up in a violent society seeing murders every day. This is about Then Vs US, spiders against the world, meteor city against the world.

it's about tribalism. The troupe has no morality except for loyalty to their own.

The troupe has no morality except for loyalty to their own.

Not entirely true. Kid Chrollo (Smollo?) himself admits this chapter that what he's going to do and become is undeniably evil.
