With exception of Pariston and Ging who are troublesome and stubborn. They are pretty much like a fanboy/fangirl toward Netero.(Included Pariston and Ging this time). I think their design are fine, though. You probably over thinking things, i don't know. Thats not a mentally sane way to show your admiration for somebody, no normal person would do this. Its incredibly stupid, and the first major problem I have with HxH (and major still means small in this context, because HxH is just too good). I don't mind them really asides from Horseman, who I'd never want to meet irl |

| so how did killua survive the "die" command ? |
TripleSRank said: GalekC said: Killua was supposedly said to have not been as observational, sometime before he met Gon. And, how could any Zoldyck member NOT know of the Dragon Dive ability? I don't think the Zoldycks function quite like the Phantom Troupe - where they trust one another enough to mostly keep each other's powers & abilities a secret among each individual self. I'm sure he did know about it. In fact, he instantly recognized it in the Chimera Ant arc. What I'm saying is that just because he knew about the ability, that doesn't mean he knew what said ability was (nen) or how it worked (hatsu), nor does it mean he cared to find out. Killua watched since birth overpowers abilities within his family, he himself has that ''Rhythm Echo''. He should thought that it is something normal.  And about Kalluto, he couldn't join the Ryodan without knowing about Nen, then he should have asked for his family to teach. |

DiabloMask said: Illumi refers to Alluka as "otouto" which means younger brother. And Killua refers to him as "Imouto" which means younger sister! I'm confused! Is he a male or female?! The best solution, trust in your eye |

| great as always, I don't think I need to say more about how amazing it is.. the greatest part is coming, Leorio-san is coming, you will see how genius Togashi is when.. maybe not in the next episode / 140, maybe in 141.. |

| Well, after marathoning the series and finally catching up, I'm pretty pumped to see Leorio again. He's certainly not the strongest (from what I know) but definitely a character I really like. Amazing series, and despite Chimera Ant being epic, this Election arc seems to be a nice change if pace arc right now. Curious to see what happens next, and how Leorio is involved--not to mention how he'll react to seeing Gon in the condition he's in. |
| inb(late) incest supporters talk incest. I can't stand that. He just rescued his sister from spending quite some time in prison. Romance doesn't have exist in everything. If Hisoka says you have issues. You have issues. Nice artwork. Glad to see Killua cares about his sister, unlike the rest of his family. Toddlers/young children typically don't have white hair. It fits Killua though. This is before he threatens your wife. Just waif pops. You thought Killua was dead? Neither did he. |
| OMG Alluka is so friggin' adorable ^_^ I really didn't like Pariston at first but I'm starting to warm up to him.... and his fabulous shoujo sparkles |
| In the manga I liked Pariston right from the start but I've been struggling to watch his scenes in the anime. He feels different... but maybe it's just me. |

Could be just you, I've actually been liking Pariston a lot more because of the anime. just checked 2ch and twitter and apparently it isn't just me. It depends on how one sees him I suppose. My expectation was too high because he's a favorite. |
| Yay! Leorio is back next episode! Hopefully Killua will be able to save both Alluka and Gon. The scene between Hisoka and Illumi was lol. They both have problems. |
 |
| -nice ep - i hope the other kalluto show on next ep, - i cant understand what illumni saying about alluka, but when milluki gave an explanation i get all what is power of alluka -that part of hisoka, starting to sweat, hisoka is starting to take shine on this arc. |
| More Hisoka and Leorio :D |
| killua needs to make a wish to make alluka 100% female then bone her. incest support ftw! |

| I'm really liking this whole Alluka situation. More than the election actually. Her powers are interesting and the anime is doing a good job of presenting a tense atmosphere whenever Nanika is involved. My only complaint so far in this arc is, as has been said before, some of the OST used. It's not as distracting or mishandled as it used to be way back in the Hunter Exam arc, but it's still hit or miss. Some episodes get it right, while other episodes play inappropiate music in some scenes. I guess they did an ok job with this one, but I do get the feeling they're not being as careful with it since they're already approaching the ending of the series and the most "important" arcs are already past. |

| Cute episode, i really enjoyed all the back ground and this new character :D. Not really looking forward to Leorio to be honest i think i like the show better without him and Kurapika, their both so..boring and pointless xD. Killua & Gon's adventures are way more fun and watchable. |
| Loved Killua and Alluka interactions the most in this arc. Awesome episode. 5/5 Ugh, I'm not looking forward to seeing that dipshit Leorio at all. Will probably skim through his parts in the future. |

| Alluka and Killua are so cute together. Awesome ep 5/5 |

| Hey Leorio is an amazing person! Has the biggest heart out of all of the four imho and is a character that has managed to still be himself so far. I mean sure he was a bit annoying at the beginning (trick tower anyone?) but he isn't one of those typical, useless characters that just gets in his friends way all the time. At least he has a reason for not doing much stuff like the other characters since ya know medical school. Seems like future chapters has more in store for him though in the manga. |
| Another amazing episode of Hunter X Hunter! Oh god, I love this show! The Hisoka and Illumi conversation was pretty funny. Alluka is crazy, for a second I was pretty freaked out when his head disappeared lol. Killua is a genius, I love how he's a main focus during this arc. I used to hate the Killua character until the Chimera Ant arc and now I'm loving Killua! That was damn badass when he used his mom as a risk for Alluka's crazy power even his mom was impressed lol. Great episode tho, the ending was very cute and made me smile. I'm so excited for next week's episode! I can't wait to see a more badass Leorio! 5/5, I'm pumped for next weeks! It's going to be amazing to see Leorio again, I've missed that guy. |

I already read this arc in the manga months ago, I know what you mean by him being ''awesome'' and I didn't think of him as such back then. And I heard that he was shoehorned into the current arc of the manga, bleh. |

| Great episode, as usual. Really enjoyed the comedy between Hisoka and Illumi, it's great to have that kind of humor back in the show again. Killua's part of the arc is more compelling than the still very good election side so far. I really liked the insights we're getting into the twisted psyche of the Zoldyk family. We saw some of this back in the rescue Killua arc and we're seeing more of it here. Illumi's belief that Killua loves him most, for example. Yeah, it was played for laughs, but it also hints at a very interesting side to Illumi's personality we haven't quite seen before. What could have caused him to delude himself into thinking that? I hope Togashi explores this more in the future, as it opens up a lot of possibilites. Killua's mom is completely insane. We know from the rescue Killua arc that she cares a lot about her son and so doesn't want him to leave the house, and she obviously desires for him to grow up and become successful at his future career. Unfortunately in this case it's assassination, and so she's overwhelmed with joy when Killua orders Alluka to kill her. Her son is growing up! He's progressing well if he's capable of such cruelty! Very creepy way to think, but on the other hand its kind of genius, as all Togashi has done here is take the way some mothers act (wishing for their children's success above all) and applied it in a very absnormal situation. It's interesting how well Milluki understands Killua. Or rather, he can follow his reasoning on an intellectual level but cannot actually comprehend it on an emotional level. He explains away Killua's actions and feelings as simply stupidity, since it doesn't align with the way his family looks at such matters. Alluka is unbelievably cute. Makes her monstrous side all the more disturbing. Leorio is finally back next ep! I've been waiting for this for ages. Now we just need Kurapika, and the show will finally feel like it has 4 main characters again. |

| I just love that ending theme <3 Its too awesome. And I really dislike how the subbers wrote "something" instead of Nanika. I know nanika literally means something, but something just sounds so stupid. |
Sol_Ou said: I just love that ending theme <3 Its too awesome. And I really dislike how the subbers wrote "something" instead of Nanika. I know nanika literally means something, but something just sounds so stupid. Is "Nanika" an actual name? If not, I think "Something" is proper for the subtitles. It's one thing for your name to mean "courage", and another thing entirely if you name is literally "Courage", for example. |
TripleSRank said: The meaning is usually literally the name tho. Just look at Haruka, Hotaru, Kasumi, Rin, Sakura, etc. so Nanika can be a name.Is "Nanika" an actual name?

| Yeah I think they should have kept as ''Nanika'' since Killua is using it as an actual name. He was a kid when he made that name so it makes sense. |
|
| I give this episode a 5/5 simply for this reason: Oh, and the brutal mind rape I felt after discovering that Alluka's a boy. I have no more time for 3D men, I only want to live in the 2D world and be Hisoka's mistress. Sent with Mal Updater |

Hannah_Ana said: Oh, and the brutal mind rape I felt after discovering that Alluka's a boy. Alluka is still cute. I'm just saying. |

It doesn't really bother me. There are plenty of "pretty boy" types out there, and it doesn't seem to me that Alluka is trying to act or dress particularly feminine anyway. He certainly is cute, though. |
| Oh, but if she's a transgirl then she isn't a boy. :o There's no reason to worry about you guys' heterosexuality~ |

Yes, for example, using Yuuki as a character's name. Translating is ''Courage'', but it's kinda weird to use the translation for a name... In addition, on the Dutch translating will be ''Moed''. For a large understanding, the best choice is to keep the original name. and I like Nanika's name |

| Seeing the big brother side of Killua strains my kokoro. I just can't. It's too adorable. This episode only reaffirms how drawn I am to Killua as a character. Definitely one of my most favorite characters in this show. On a side note he really is so brave. No matter how much I would love my little sister, if she had that uncontrollable frightening power.... I would probably be overly cautious and reluctant to be around her. I mean YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN SHE'S GOING TO MAKE HER REQUESTS. I would be that one person who runs away. |

And he understands Alluka's abilities the most, so he is never in danger of her abilities, quite the opposite, he is in perfect control of them. |
|
| Ugh, that kiss.. So beautiful. I almost wish I am the one kissing Killua lol. Kidding aside, seeing Alluka with Killua made me feel relieve. I mean, it's Killua after all so of course he knows what he's doing and by the looks of it, he knew ALL the rules and how to play with it. Such a badass move to get out of their mansion, btw. Kikyo's even amazed and...being her usual self, O_O. Also, Milluki screaming "Papa! And Mama!" made me aww. I dunno why. The rules he listed are pretty detailed and clear though. Awesome. Anyway, I'm loving Cheadle's hate towards Pariston for some reason. Maybe because I just don't like Pariston to be the new chairman. Even if I want it to be Ging, it's obvious it's not going to be him 'cause he clearly doesn't want to.. -_-". So I'll go for Cheadle for now. Then, that Illumi and Hisoka's chat... Haha, hilarious and enjoyable. Never thought I've missed them so much..and Leorio too.. I bet he's different now in terms of strength. Great episode as usual. PS. I'm new here so, yoroshiku onegaishimasu minna!! Kurapika's wearing a suit, O_O |
