----------------------------------------
Oh, so we get to see Bloster return to NGL this episode. A refreshing way to see him again I guess.

A lot of feels this episode as well. Good to see everyone back. Hope they can heal Gon soon. Great to see Ging this episode and some of the others in this next arc! Can't wait especially...[spoiler]Pariston[/s].

Very slow first half. The information contained in the last 5 minutes makes up for it even though I have read the manga. I didn't expect them to show the Zodiacs in this episode to be honest.

I can't wait to see Ging animated, it's gonna be awesome.

Decent episode overall - and so the hype for next week begins. Really can't wait to see the Zodiacs in action - not only Ging, but the other ones as well. Chimera Ant Arc has been one hell of a ride, but for some reason I'm even more excited for this new arc. Also, Hisoka in the preview - very nice. He's been missed.

I was surprised! So Kite got reborn as an ant? Real touching reunion between the mother and daughter, I thought that whole village was killed at the beginning.

Gon's father makes an appearance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think.

Also is that Hisoka in the preview? That must mean Chrollo has his Nen back.

Dammit, I didn't want to be such a crybaby, but it was so touching. I hope Colt and Reina will be reunited someday.

I knw Kaito turned into a little girl, but I didn't saw that coming! Who would have thought he got eaten by the queen when his body (the external) is "intact".

Finally the Election arc is starting, time to fill the parts I didn't get spoiled.

OT: Good episode and with that the CA arc comes to a close, just an amazing arc, currently my favourite in anime, I haven't been this interested in an anime since the Kyoto arc from Rurouni Kenshin. Looking forward to the Election arc, but since it's very short, it makes me sad just knowing the anime will end in September, how will I fill that gap once it's over?

The part with ant Reina felt a little forced and not needed at least for not so much screen time. Also this is the first time something just doesn't make sense to me. How the hell the brother/sister of Meruem can be Kite??? Queen didn't eat him, so his "soul"(memories) can not possibly be an ant (quite disappointed at such an obvious mistake unless I am being wrong somewhere).

The part with Gon and Killua and the end was AWESOME!!! So we see how bad Gon's condition is(that makes sense I am glad). Woah Ging!!! Really excited!!!

Did I forget something? All what's left is him surviving and leaving the nest, which they showed through Welfin's dialogue.
Only thing they cut is him never meeting gon which is pointless to show now.

Your 'telling' was never mentioned nor confirm at all in the manga...so it's at best just a speculation. and I'm not buying it.

From what I remember from reading the election arc a year ago, yes, it should bring it up, just thought I'd mention it as I had a feeling some people would get confused about it.

You can read my 'spoiler' replies to KitsuneKomugi for a more likely explanation. What KitsuneKomugi wrote was not in canon at all, it's just his/her own speculation.

No what you wrote was never ever mentioned in the manga, it's really just one of readers' theory. Don't mislead anime-only watchers about false expectation and promise of such 'explanation'....

We have 30 chapters left to adapt before the beginning of the next arc in the manga at 340 and if it adapts around 2 chapters per episode that gives us around 10-15 episodes which should lead up to September. Plus I doubt we would get filler as if we haven't gotten filler in the anime, I doubt that MH would make filler and of course, there's Togashi unpredictable timetable

Awesome episode (so much hype), some cute moments with the ants, Killua was a total badass, my only complaint is that Reina and Brovada got accepted way too easily (I would somewhat understand if it was only her Mom that accepted her but the whole vilalge? even the kids?), also that village should 99% certanly been wiped by now.

I still gave it a 5.

Holy shit... What an amazing episode. The reunion of that girl and her mother, I thought that was a little harsh when they just died back then.
They'll explain about Kite.. Probably in the next episode.

Can't wait for more Hisoka!

Watching the Chimera ant living a normal life that they had when they were humans. Reina reuniting with her mom ^^ She asking Brovada to join them :D
For a second, I thought "not another person name Reina!", Kite coming back in a girl's form!
Gon being a hero and the hunter association would save him no matter what!
All those big shots gathering for the election!
Killua is planning something to save Gon, with electricity maybe? O.o I immediately went to spoil myself xD

In terms of start of the episode, it was at walking stick pace, I did believe Reina reuniting with her mum was nice. The announcement of kite being reincarnated into a girl was interesting to say the last. But I'm loving how Killua is at the moment.

his love for Gon is so strong, but you can clearly see he's still in two minds about everything, mainly because of bisky saying that he'll abandon him, coupled with Gon basically telling him he doesn't care about kite ext. I feel that him saying heal him is obviously taken at face value, but also means the relationship between them two, as well as healing himself from the hurt he suffered. He's still trying desperately to prove his worth to Gon, nevertheless, can't wait for the zodiacs next episode.

Kite's now a loli with a tail? I am okay with this. I'm sure she'll grow up quickly enough though, considering how the first time we saw her she wasn't even as big as Colt's palm and now she's talking and swinging around a sword. Can't wait to find out more about that.

I actually wasn't expecting TOO much from this episode at first, but it turned out to be very emotional and had an awesome cliffhanger! Hunter x Hunter never disappoints. I wonder if the main focus will be on Killua now, that'd be pretty interesting.

Well loved this ep.

The first part with Reina and Brovoda was really cute and emotional :*)

Kite's re-birth has been confirmed XD And boy is she a childish ant XD Morel's reaction was lol.

Killua's part was really emotional :( Poor Killua. I can't wait for ALLUKA!! >.<

My body is ready for the new arc


IIRC, people said the new arc is about Killua's family? Can someone confirm?
