Very good points indeed. I keep on jumping the gun it seems (lol) but I'm glad that there are people out there to point out the things that I neglect completely. I'll be honest though, there are sooo many things that I'm looking forward to in this anime (particularly how Madhouse will interpret the original material) so I WILL have a tendency to forget details such as that (and the fact that Yorknew is still just getting started...).


Don't get me wrong I'm the same way. I'm really looking forward to the next few episodes, but ultimately the Chimera ant arc..hehe..

On a completely separate note, I'm soo happy that I'm able to discuss this anime with other people. Honestly, it's the only reason why I joined this site in the first place. It's fun to read what others think of this anime but its alot more satisfying when discussing it with others. Plus, it allows me to discover new things about this series, something that I really look forward to.

Anyway, just wanted to say a special thank you to Mephz and noonealive for giving me responses to my first few posts! :) Believe it or not, it means alot to me. (Yeah, the small things in life make me happy.)

P.S.- Umm...I hope I didn't sound too creepy towards the end lol


Actually, i just recently jumped into the forum scene not to long ago. I joined for same reasons pretty much.. lol... but discussing topics with other people is fun so welcome.. hehe.

Still excellent show as always! Loved the animation this episode especially the dodging but the chains were great too, dunno why people are saying it sucked. More build up toward the Troupe for next week!

Other thoughts

Awkward repetition is awkward from Kurapika but whatever, guess Madhouse couldn't think of anything else to fill 22 min with without going into the next chapter :P

Funny to see Squala turned into a masochist lol especially the reactions from Kurapika and Basho.

Excited for next episode!

I'm confused on why Neon has blue hair though.
Isn't her hair supposed to be pink?
From what I understand her hair color's supposed to be pink.

Yes, her hair was pink in the manga.

But anyway, is just one change.

The old anime changed the color of more important characters, as the Ryodan.

Damn, Kurapika is a genius figuring that out. No wonder he aced some of the previous trials of the Hunter exam. At any rate, looking forward to his upcoming conflicts with Phantom Troupe and the auction.

Oh and nice chains.

Good episode.
The first half was kinda boring, but the fight was quite nice. Man, Kurapika fighting is awesome. Can't wait to see him more in this auction arc.

Melody is adorabutts. Shocked to find out she's female, but that makes her more appealing as a character, that unexpectedness. I think her and Kurapika would make a great team if they ever paired up.

Ahh, Kurapica, finally you get to see him in action. I think this Is the first time you actually get to really see him fight. So the 4 members have been formed and now the tests begin and soon the aunction is going to start.

Can’t wait to see the phantom troupe.

Actually, yeah that's true. The most you would have seen up to now was him one-hit Ko'ing that blue dude. Then again, there were very few actual fights during the Hunter Exam and Zoldyck arcs anyway.

So Kurapika is focusing on manipulator abilities atm. He's a pretty sharp observer. I think keeping his name and aura type to himself was smart as well.

I can hardly believe it, but I really like the Hunterpedia at the end. It's been consistently entertaining.

I already loved him so much and now he's even wearing my style :D <3 can it get even more awewome? :3

I'm curious about Kurapika's upcoming fights, suddenly i get the feeling that he's become pretty badass?! I must admit, judging from the first few episodes i didn't see that coming!

Man, Senritsu really is freaking ugly. She look like Squealer from Shinsekai yori, which isn't a complimant.

Kurapika became pretty strong. He was pretty much the leader in the improvised group.His other chain probably hold other weapons, which would be cool. The girl kissing ability is also very strong if it works on practically everyone. Of course, I guess a strong user can resist to it. Haiku dude ability is so damn random xD

LOL I didn't even notice that earring!

i've noticed it, but i keep forgetting.....:T
considering his personality, it'd be a safe bet to say he wouldn't wear it to be "fabulus" but more of something along the lines to honor someone (or someones).

On a similar note, I forgot how much of a butthole Kurapika was in this arc. Seriously, he calls Senritsu (or Melody) a man and doesn't even bat an eye at his mistake. Then when she politely asks for his name, he's like "Heck no." XD

this is.....no. pika has a job to do. and he's not about to let himself get distracted and get people involved in what he's working for. there is no reason for him to be so friendly if he wants to shut out as many people as he can.
-------


i had no idea what that (albeit, cool) thing pika was doing, so this explanation only makes it more awesome.
so this arc is going to be focused on him? funny, thought this was about the game.....

So, Kurapika's becoming an edgelord? I see.. Also, he should've sticked with a sword, I feel like swords fit him much more than a chain. The chain kinda feels forced in, just because he said something about it last episode.

Anyways, really curious about the Yorknew arc, seems to be a pretty great arc from what I've heard. Excited to see Leorio again!

Also, wtf is Killua wearing? o.o

I like how cold and distant Kurapika is toward the rest. He barely met them; why would he trust them right off the bat? It's a shady business AND one of the items on the list of request are the Kurta eyes. If they found out, what if they start to attack him because it's conveniently right there in front of them without searching for it?

We all know Kurapika is loyal to his friends, as seen when he and Gon refused to leave Leorio in the cave during the Hunter exam. But these aren't friends. They're people he has to cooperate with for a common client in order to meet his true objective to kill who he has to kill. It's a temporary relationship for business. No need to know more about them than absolutely necessary.

Thus, I don't see Kurapika as being an asshole. I love him :D

I also dig Killua's new outfit lmao. As strange-looking as it is, at least he can work it and is obviously the type to not give a fuck about what others think >;D

Kurapika showed to everyone that even though he's the youngest person in the room, he's not one to be underestimated at all. Basho's Heaven's Door Haiku-based Nen looked seriously sweet and Baise's kiss-enslavement Nen would be great for dominatrixes~ Senritsu being a woman is a press x to doubt but her voice is cute.

Even though Milluki ain't a Hunter, he still got access at that exclusive site and will soon have 50 billion Jenny to his name. That supercomputer set ♡ The preview showed most of the Phantom Troupe, oh Shit!
