Some Killua action is always welcome : it's crazy how he manages to steal the show by barely doing a thing.
Lol @ Meruem's complete 180 on what humans represent to Ants. Netero somehow managed to make things even worse.

Oh, and Pouf is the best Ant ever. No way I can change my mind on that.

I always really liked the narrator's "This, too, was the King" line quite a bit. Such a simple but very effective line, imo.

Oh Pouf, you're such a bastard....

Doesn't help that he looks like Light Yagami : P
I swear some of the faces he makes are ripped straight out of Death Note


Cannot unsee.

Anyway, liked this episode better than the previous one. I'm kind of confused on Killua's speed though. Some of you are saying he's comparable to lightning(which is what I thought) while others say he's slower than mach 1 which is a huge difference. Was it never specified in the manga?

I am not quite sure how to sum this.
But to simplify this, Killua's denkosekka at least on same level or faster than cheetu.
While Shippu Jinrai reaction time is at least mach 19 or higher(unfortunately from OBD calculation --).

To clear things up, there is a difference between movement speed and combat speed/reaction time.

I fell for HxH a few weeks ago and it's already on hiatus. Srsly... I don't know if I should hate myself or the whole world.

ANYWAY

Pouf is so annoying in an amazing way (still annoying)... Too bad Komugi is convicted Killua is the bad guy.

I wonder how this arc ends, I can't see how it is going to end in 7 episodes at this point. I have a feeling that Gon is the only one that is strong enough to kill Meruem but he is very far from the palace.

Because most likely there is a condition of some sort... Like you know, Meleoron can transport his power to someone else.

So let's play this game, name one plot hole and inconsistency and I'll prove you that you haven't even put some thought about it.

@tqran hates the narrative but he wants to know more details.
he talks about physics but he watches anime, and Im not going to say the "realistic works" that he loves it

Even though I know the key here will be Komugi, I'm not sure how it will end well with Meruem and the Royal Guards. From the beginning we have been given a premise that the best scenario is for all of the CAs to be killed. What are the alternatives? None.

I'm interested to see how this premise is broken in the latter episodes. If it is though.

Killer is badass. That kick to create the circle to epic.

Pouf must be stopped.

They could have used "HUNTING FOR YOUR DREAM" this episode.

Pouf is one annoying ass mofo, the only new character that I dislike from this arc tbh. Killua continues to be a valuable member of Gon's group.

Meruem's new attack tho, shit is OP.

Komugi is so fucking stupid >.> and it doesn't help that she can't see shit. Ugh. I don't even care if Pouf kills her at this point. Pouf needs to die as well >.>

I wonder if Palm would still like Knov once she sees his current state lol

More Killua pls. He makes tolerating Pouf better .-.

This episode was great.

Killua's nen ability, Godspeed, is incredible. He evolved a lot and became a lot stronger than he was before. I'm impressed.
I'm glad that he is the one looking out for Komugi.

Ahh crap. Shit is about to get real when Meruem is coming back to his home turf. He obtained some of Youpi's power 0_0. Yep...he's way more powerful than his original form.

And Pouf was still annoying asf. He is my least favorite ant in the ENTIRE series by far.
I hate the fact that this guy is selfish and totally obsessive towards the king. In addition, he wanted to kill Komugi. THAT IS A NO NO in my book. I hate that creep.

Overall, I enjoyed this episode.

5/5

If the Meruem has the abilities that Pouf and Youpi has. Then can he split himself up like Pouf?

Killua's Godspeed is awesome, with that ability and his stamina... He could run and jump all night!

Gon and Pitou are almost there. Heal Kite pls...

It's baffling to me that despite knowing enemies' power to turn invisible, Poud didn't make any of his clones follow any of them and let them easily meet up. How convenient it was lmao. Pouf's plan is full of holes that it's never gonna work.

Also, now I think about it, Knuckle A.P.R doesn't make much sense. What type of Nen is it again and how the fuck is it indestructible?

Shaiapouf's scrambling to find an opportunity to dispose of Komugi but all he's managed to do was to waste time chasing down Killua in his Godspeed mode. He still has the Gungi board to worry about too so Meruem fully regaining his memory is bound to happen.

So...some facts..

#1: Netero said when accepting the job "any means necessary".
#2: To ensure killing the king, he used a bomb that triggered when his start stopped.
#3: They didn't know about any third party before encountering Komugi, but had some suspicions
#4: Despite not being sure about Fact #3, they were fine with using Zeno's dragon dive to bombard the palace
#5: They did not particularly care about Komugi being wounded and nearly dying. No one showed any remorse, or said they are sorry or asked if they could do anything. If Killua hadn't stop Gon, it's likely that he would have attacked Pitou immediately.
#6: Their plan relied on Knov sneaking around in the palace, including as close to the throne room as possible, and setting portals.
#7: They obviously don't mind the palace being totally destroyed and all
#8: They gained the ability to sneak around totally unnoticed (Meleoron)
#9: Their goal is to take out the King. Royal Guard surviving is okay.

I wonder if there was something they could have done with the ability to place and use portals, sneaking around undetected and having access to bombs strong enough to kill the King (assuming full blast, he was escaping from the one Netero used) while not carrying about any destruction or loss of live of a potential third party.

Totally different plan: Have Knuckle hit each of the royal guard once, wait in portal space for them to go bankrupt (if possible). Otherwise, hide elsewhere - they did enough of that, and later they knew the royal guard would not be doing much searching for them.

Best thing, for both plans, seperating them from the King was not needed. That was because their plan relied on fighting the King. Without having to fight anyone, no need to seperate.

If the King died, mission accomplished. Clap yourself on the back, high five the others and go home. If the Royal Guard died, they would more or less be where they wanted to be with the plan they used - seperating the Royal Guard from the King - but it would have been way easier.

Sure, both cases something might come up. But that they considered the plan they used the one with the highest chance to succeed, and basically sticked with it even after it both failed over and over *AND* succeeded, as in, the King was far enough away for the Royal Guard not being able to get there before it didn't matter anymore one way or the other (or so they thought at least, which again was a failure in their plan).

Overall, that is neither "by any means necessary" nor even particulary smart.

I could understand someone like Knuckle or Gon being upset about especially the bomb plan, but you wouldn't need them for that, or didn't need to tell them all. The hunter exam also showed that they aren't particular about their methods. Makes me wonder why Netero didn't go for another plan..except that we might not have much of an anime, but that would be the writers fault for lack of imagination..or whoever decided it has to be like this..
