User blog comment:Jojo-a-gogo/Do guys think that Pariston could be the FINAL antagonist?/@comment-5242743-20130129173738

IDK I always saw Pariston as sort of a manipulative character rather than a threat, I get the impression that everything he's doing right now is simply because it amuses him (similar to Hisoka), rather than doing it for a goal.

Also I don't think he's pretending to be weak, he just never had a chance to fight after all this whole time we've seen him was taking part in the election.
