| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Go Octobro! What an awesome character. Looks like Zeno meets Gon this episode. Well this is kinda interesting. Knuckles is also pretty awesome. I don't blame Meleoron for being teary eyes and nervous this episode though. Hell, I'd be too if I was in his shoes. Also is it just me or does Welfin's attack look like Metalgarurumon? I'm ready for Gon vs. Pitou. This should be intense especially with that look in his eyes. |
 |
| ^^ So Gon didn't get to see Pitou in this episode? |

| Maybe the worst episode since the beginning of HxH xD But next episode will be great that's for sure ^^ |
| Episode was meh and that's being extremely generous. This is why I have gripes with Chimera Ant, it's the most inconsistent from episode to episode just like it was from chapter to chapter. First time in awhile I can say I was thoroughly disappointed at the end of an episode. |
| It's not out yet is it? Anyway I read a comment on another forum that implied that they are deliberately delaying all Gon scenes from the last 2 epsidoes to next episode which is supposed to have a good animation team or something... |

GalekC said: No, I don't think that's the case. Maybe they chose to delay Gon's scenes for another reason. But the facts are: - They have delayed Gon's scenes, changing the order of events. Otherwise, it would have been this week. - Judging by the preview, next week the animation director is Tomoko Mori, the best this anime has. So, I don't think that theory is so wrong. |

Last 4 episodes were very good imo especially 112 & 114 this episode was only the bad one because they changed the order of events putting only the boring but necessary scenes in it but next episode will be great judging by the preview and what I know will happen especially if it was done by Tomoko Mori |
| Okayish episode, liked to hear about wolf dudes abilities. I hope shoot doesn't die :( And also get in there knuckles!! Next episode seems like its going to be more fun |
| This episode didn't even cover 2 chapters Are you serious madhouse |

| Damn this episode was purely epic . I had goose bumps in the end of the episode . I hope Shoot survives , Knuckle is epic , Meleoron is such a good character . Anyways , this episode was 5/5 . HXH truly deserves to be the best shonen anime . |
| Go Ikalgo!! show them all and save Palm bro. Gon's stare at the end alone probably killed Pitou.Now lets go Ou vs Netero!... |
 |
| Damn that ending, Gon is so fucking pissed off. I doubt he's going to wait until Pitou is finished healing the girl. I've never seen him with that kind of face before. And that dog-ant is totally loosing himself. It's fun watching him go mad, and that elevator delusion he had lmao. I couldn't stop laughing when Ikalgo said: "Once he suspects you he doesn't trust you again until you're dead". That's some major trust issues right there. Holy shit!! And that preview to the next episode!! I can't wait!!! |

| Good ep for me. I remember that there were a few chapters after the infiltration that dragged quite a bit so I'm ready for this, which is why I wasn't annoyed much. Actually liking Welfin's character. Too bad the talk with Zeno was really short. I wish they could have talked more. But oh well, situation doesn't allow. Final steps Gon took and saw Pitou's were again the highlight of the ep. Dat RAPE FACE!!! Even stronger than last time. Nxt ep the face and aura will be reaching another level :D Can't wait. Pitou has some pants to shit in XD Loving how the animation looks in the pv ^^ |
 |
| I really hope we get to see Gon go up against Piitou next episode. Man Welfin is suspicious of everything. |
 |
| That preview... |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| ALL CHARACTERS ARE IMPORTANT: GON EPIC |
| Gintama: "The blade is not to cut down your enemies Nor is it to cut away your own weakness A sword isnt meant to protect your body A sword is meant for protecting your soul" |
| They animated less then 2 chapters and left out the meat of one chapter. Pouf/Morel pages where animated last week, Gon/Pitou page is skipped and they dragged out Knuckle/Youpi and Meleoron/Welfin parts. The pacing was off and I couldn't enjoy the episode because of that. But I wonder if I would feel the same way if I didn't read the manga :\ Anyways Madhouse screwed over this episode animation team and sacrificed 115. I just hope that 116 will be worth it. Also is it just me or did Zeno's voice sound a bit off? |

| Wasn't the greatest ep, but I understand it's hard to tell everyone's story within a 20 minute time frame. So in that respect, it wasn't that bad. Just not great. Sidenote: Who gives a shit how many chapters are animated per episode? Honestly, there's a difference between being a manga reader, and being a manga douchebag. Most of the people who read the manga on this forum, are manga douchebags. You tools look at this show like it's a science, instead of enjoying what's actually happening. |
 |
| that ending.. the look on gon's face , he's going super saiyan man ! XD can't wait for next week's episode, the ending literally got me pumped up |
 |
| I was wondering how would Knuckle be able to survive against youpi since shoot is a lot more fit to fight, glad they are doing a hit and run type of fight, good attention to details. Although I gotta admit, Meleoron walking away looked dumb, almost as dumb as that Mouthless guy from the Hunter Exam. Great voice acting by Shoot's VA, and it felt really sad that he got left like that. This and the Welfen part, let's just say I'm really liking the mind games and how they are not dumbing this down to be mindless fights even in the climax, props to the writer. "Welfen knew his power wasn't omnipotent, it was a mere tool", lines like these sell it for me. Smart episode, with good character development for ones you least expect. 5 out of 5. |

Ajunky said: I understand they don't want to catch up with the manga too quickly, but this 10 seconds per episode pace is a tad bit too sluggish (on the other hand, you can really feel Knuckle's frustation XD) As someone stated last episode, they are adapting 2-3 chapters, which is hardly not wanting to catch up. Furthermore, the Manga has been on hiatus for almost 2 years now, and they are already near the end, it doesn't take much to realize that they are indeed ending the show after catching up with the manga, so this whole "manga gap" concept is not there. Consider the manga has ended and now they are taking their own pace. In other words, it's the manga that's depicting this 10-second thing. Also, why does it matter how much time this is? I mean the content of this episode is definitely proportional to its length. |

| These episodes are stretched out beyond imagination. Another one spent on some characters moving a few hundred meters and rest not moving at all. I miss the pace from GI or other arcs. CA arc is so damn boring now with episodes consisting mostly of pointless narration and inner monologues. I'm sorry to say but it reminds me of Naruto Shippuuden right before I dropped it. I really hope next episode will have at least some action, since we haven't seen much of it lately. You can't really call Youpis flailing around and Shoot's flying around much of an action... Same goes for pretty much every other encounter in the palace. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| Good ep :) waiting for gon vs pitou and king vs netero :) we need patience now... 1 chapter for 1 episode? srsly so slow.. If i didnt read manga i will hope that fight with gon and pitou be in next one :( Its about 10 episode at least. |

| Thought I was in the anime discussion thread not the manga one :S couldn't tell from some of the first page comments. The series is still just as good for me as it always has been. The only series I can complain about the pacing is One Piece. This show's pacing blows One Piece out of the water so be grateful for that. Anyways I thought it was a great episode. Best part was when Meleoron had to leave Shoot while Shoot was crawling on the ground and then the OST came in. Got goosebumps from that scene. |

| That Gons black aura looks very close to those in SF 4. And... http://i.imgur.com/iQy3x9V.png |

| Mediocre episode that sums up well my biggest problem with this arc: Too much emphasis put on some characters nobody give a shit about. |

Most of the people who read the manga on this forum, are manga douchebags. You tools look at this show like it's a science, instead of enjoying what's actually happening. Maybe this would be a viable argument had the episode not sucked eggs. Hard to enjoy something that is clearly poorly paced (even without knowledge of how many chapters were animated) and focuses primarily on the side... side characters in Ikalgo, Welfin and Meleoron. This isn't always a bad thing, mind you, but in this episode, it was. |
| Phew Meleoron..dodged a rocket there huh? Welfin is one paranoid dude. not much progress overall. it was a slow episode. i wonder if the pacing was the same in the manga cause this feels abit "dragged out" to me but its still fine. Sent with Mal Updater |
| The thing that makes HxH unique from other shounen: It also shows other characters feelings and thoughts. Even the supporting cast is given importance. Really liked Youpi's reaction after that thing didn't break... and when Meleoron cried for Shoot. Poor Killua, he is being too nervous especially after seeing his Grandpa leave. He is feeling very uneasy... |

Zeno didn't run like a coward, he dipped because the money no longer equated the job he was payed to do. Just because he's a ruthless assassin doesn't mean he doesn't have morals. Just as he did not intend to continue fighting Kuroro when there was no longer any money involved, he also did not intend to continue his fight against the ants since it was no longer the job he was being payed to carry out. |
