Well, just a little detail but it still bugging me.. Worm was also alive in the manga. If you look closely at the corresponding panel, you can actually see that he's calling someone. I know that, I don't know what Togashi think, but it's still weird for me. Well, just forget it because nothing important from this :-P |

| Absolutely fantastic, this episode could not have been better. Time to upgrade my rating from 8 to 9/10 I think. |
 |
| WTF? No new episode today? |
| ^haha you didn't know? |
| I had my reservations about this remake at first, but damn its getting so much better. If they keep going as they are with the York arc, minimal censorship, its going to surpass the old anime in my opinion. I just sincerely hope they don't drop it after Greed Island and keep going till the current hiatus on the manga. This is one of the few remakes that is actually very very good, I thought it would turn out to be another FMA: Brotherhood. Which was superficially better but lacked proper character development, mood and setting. Great job Madhouse this is how remakes should be made. 5/5 Uvogin face bite was as epic as ever. Edit: Props to Madhouse for getting "Blackbeard's " (One Piece) voice actor to play Uvogin. I love that guy's voice acting he's one of the best. |

Well theres no doubt the this remake is gonna go passed GI...The ratings have been steadily going back up since the olympics. It was top ten in the previous episode...It should only go higher from here on out...=[] |
Candor said: I did a little comparison between both Uvo's new and old VA, they're seriously incomparable, well for me at least, Chrollo's VA (Mamoru) is also better than the old one. While I agree with you about Uvo, I'm not so sure yet about Chrollo. Miyano just comes to me as hyper, while Nagano's voice has that calm feel to it. Although ofc it's too early to write Miyano off just yet; I'll have to hear more of him first in the future eps. Overall, I prefer the 2011 voice acting; best VA for Uvo, most improved (compared to 99) is Hisoka. Takahashi's voice was just f***ing annoying for me; he's suited best for badasses (Ryu, Harima, Squalo). Worst was Shal, but it's not even as bad as 99's Feitan; I got used to it quickly. |
| The big brown fox jumps over the lazy dog |
| Yeah the MH version seem like it had a better flow to it..The 1999 lacked in certain areas. |
| All caught up finally! I forgot to comment on this episode. Not like I have much to add, though. Absolutely brutal episode. Of course, I had to lol at Uvogin being lifted into the air seemingly out of nowhere. There was just something unintentionally hilarious about that. XD Too bad there wasn't a new episode last weekend, but fortunately for us, it's back tomorrow! Out of all the shows I'm currently watching I'd say this and Space Bros. are what I look forward to every weekend. Fall is going to be even better for fans of quality shonen. Jojo and HxH airing at the same time?! Fuck yeah! |
| Episode 45 premiering on the same day in the HxH Sept universe Sept 1st! Cmon already GAHHHH |
| I really like uvogin seiyuu. Can't wait for tomorrow... Uvo vs Kurapika. It'll be cool! |
 |
| The part of the series I hate the most is coming up |
 |
| ^ I didn't think it was too obnoxious. |

| ^ not sure kurapika will grow on you even with what comes up later, because my level of liking for him hasn't really changed from when I read the YS arc. |
| Well I think I'll go watch the ova's and see if I start to like him more. If not I'll at least get to see more of Gon and Killua. |
|
| Uvogin was so epic in this episode ! This episode is the episode 53 of the old version |

| Oh, wow. Did Uvo eat Leech's face in the first adaptation? I really don't remember that. Anyway, this was sweet. I remember now why Kurapika is my favorite of the MC's, he's basically a compelling version of Sasuke from Naruto. And, yes, I realize Kurapika came first. |

| The show really turned up the gore in the past few episodes. Can't help but think of Rider whenever Uvogin speaks. |
 |
| Kurapika ...watch the road lmao. Excellent episode again. Those chains and resolve proves why he hates those bastards so much. |
 |
| Wow, the fight with the shadow beasts was awesome, even more disgusting than in the old version :P awesome episode. What would happen to Kurapika if Uvo was a fake member? |

| For those who think that the 2011 version of HxH is too childish,not violent and censored...just watch this episode! Good job,Madhouse! |
| http://i50.tinypic.com/2a0hjd5.gif Kurapika is the MAN! |
nanny96 said: For those who think that the 2011 version of HxH is too childish,not violent and censored...just watch this episode! Good job,Madhouse! I wasn't bothered about the censorship and what not before, but this and the last episode caught me off guard completely. Completely loving this direction of "mild violence, mild violence, mild violence, mild viol-GORE GORE GORE GORE GORE." Kurapika was reckless at first but it looks like his planned has worked. I wonder what he plans to do though, since they're being traced and I don't really know how he's going to pump info out of this big guy. |
 |
| Holy fucking shit, this episode is awesome, and yet to be the best episode. God damn, the fights are very sick including the guy with that destruction punch. Wow, at the end is one of the best ever! Kurapika is awesome! Can't wait on what happens next! I was shocked and said, "holy shit that is crazy!" when this comes. 10/5 |
| The leach guy was just a disgusting in this episode. |
 |
| uvo is amazing i hope he survives this that leech dude was just gross and UVO CASUALLY EATS A THIRD OF HIS HEAD |
| that leech guy sure was disgusting as fuck.. and Uvo.. was too... he chewed his face off!! fuck yeah! Kurapika on the roll! |
 |
| hmmm why restrict chain jail to only Phantom Trouppe members?? So the Phantom Trouppe are theives that don't care about money, prestige, or glory. They seem to love killing, but why also steal? Are they also cleptomaniacs? Psychopathic cleptos? |
| Love and Peace!!! |

It was said I think in the previous episodes... |

| Oh no. Now I'm worried Kurapika will use that nen on Hisoka, not knowing he's a fake Troupe member. Does absolute truth rule the restriction or personal knowledge? Or if the latter, will it kill him later once he finds out the truth? /overthinks Melody is quickly shooting her way up to my favorites. I hope she lives for a very long while. <3 Had to look away at some of the violence this ep. Geez, Uvo you gross beast you. D: |

| yeah the supposed elite team of killers ended up being a bunch of fodder as expected but at least Kurapika did face a member of the troupe at the very end of the ep, better than nothing I guess the fighting is still as unimpressive as ever but things may finally get interesting now |

| You are too fixated on expecting the conventional type of fighting that you're basically missing most of everything. |

| This entire show so far has like 2 or 3 good fights and the fights are not what this show is about. Based on your comments in the episode threads maybe you should just drop it because it's never gonna be what you want. |
| yeah I love this show and all, but theirs really only a handful of fights that I'd label as being particularly memorable |

gedata said: yeah I love this show and all, but theirs really only a handful of fights that I'd label as being particularly memorable I disagree, fights in this show are some of the best I've seen. What the fight revolves around, being actual fighting, or psychological fighting or trickery, or several of those, it excels at it. |

Based on your comments in the episode threads maybe you should just drop it because it's never gonna be what you want. I don't care much about action, actually as soon as shadow fodder team appeared during the last ep, I was hoping that the fight d be skipped, I don't care about a bunch of no names fighting I want to see what Kurapika is gonna do next, half of the ep was dedicated towards fighting an last ep was the same as well (though it was mostly a bunch of stillshots about big guy pwning some mafia dudes than an actual fight) so I commented on it but im not expecting fighting an I don't care much for it particularly when there hasn't been a single good fight so far... but there has been a ton of fodder beating that's for sure SaSa-Zoldyck said: Did you enjoyed an episode/arc so far? Do you like the characters? You mostly leave negative comments in these episode discussions. I like Killua, he doesn't waste time to kill the fodders unlike the rest of the cast, too bad he hasn't had a single worthy opponent so far I kinda like Kurapika, mostly his style he does annoy me sometimes like in his "fight" with blue guy Gon, Hisoka are ok, Leorio sucks but I don't hate cast of characters arcs? hunter exam bored me to death an the zoldyck family one as well but at least that was short, I didn't care much for the next one but it was better, this one? a bit too early to decide when looks like im getting to the interesting part |

Why did you think what Kurapika did to Majitani annoying, for example? im aware this isn't mainly about the fights (theres like what? 3 or 4 fights so far?) im not expecting Kurapika to fight big guy, hes paralyzed so he doesn't need to fight him to kill him as soon as blue guy showed up I knew that he was nothing more than a fodder that should be defeated instantly with a single hit, particularly when you are running outta time to finish the test but Kurapika decided to spend like a full ep talking with blue guy before he decided it was time to beat the guy with a single hit, he should have done that as soon as the "fight" started, Killua, on the other hand, killed the blonde serial murderer like the trash he was instantly |
