SirHarryFlashman said: Cool episode. Is it just me who hates the mass of people in these threads saying things like "next episode X will happen!" or "I can't wait to see Y". Or the old "Ahh, you are close but you will find out why soon". >_> As long as nothing is spoiled I usually don't pay any mind to it. Quite a turn of events, so this is what Satotz meant when he said the exam wasn't over, that the thing that separates true hunters from half assed grads is Nen. Gon may have lost his match but it seems he's gained something far more valuable. I also like how they treat severe injuries appropriately in this series, where people don't get magical plot regenerative abilities to pretend it never happened. |

| man gon really needs to work on his bull-headedness. i understand being eager about awakened powers but its pure idiotic to just rush into battle like that, and he obviously hasn't learned a lesson/matured from it also that stranger randomly offering to teach kurapika needs some explanation |
| so what about Leorio?? |
 |
| nothing impressive as expected an i wouldnt call this a fight to be honest, d ve been better if he had fought wheelchair guy instead |
 |
| Niceto get a peek at Kurapika. At first I was peeved at the cliché of him and the other two discovering Nen around the same time like a checklist, but the hints are there that this isn't a coincidence -- surviving your first year as a "Hunter" (or protecting your license from theft) might be the true passing test, and anyone with Nen is out for new blood to slurp. |
 |
| Gotta love Killua breaking the 4th wall here. |
| Gon certainly learned how to use ren quite quickly. Wing recognized gon’s potential and development as being someone to be able to master such abilities steadily. Very subtle hint towards some major foreshadowing, though only manga readers would be able to catch it. Damn the animation in this fight is just really fluid. I took a look back at the old series to see the difference and this new show is just on a whole new level. We see kurapica again coming to the realization that he can’t push forward until he has learned nen as well. Someone else suddenly halts him. If I hadn't known better, I would say this is all all been orchestrated behind the scenes. Wing suddenly appears, teaching gon and killua and now this random guy approaching kuripica. You think it’s just a coincidence? I think not. |

| Things are just opening up. Great episode yet again. |
 |
| Beyblade x Hunter. Gon got rekt. Again. Nen is gonna be crazy for sure. |
| Now it's time for Kurapika to learn Nen. Miyuki's voice ftw!!! |
 |
| good to know this season wont be completely void of Kurapika and Leorio |
~my list
| Oh wow, I feel really retarded that I just understood what Satotsu meant by ''the real exam starts now'' xD Wing seem to feel really guilty... I hope he don't fall into madness, because he's doing more and more crazy faces recently. Of course, Gon was no match against a veteran of the 200th floor. That Gido knew what he was doing and he has done it numerous times. |

| Well, that explains that. Nen is the final hurdle. |
| Finally some Kurapika. Hopefully we theres an ep like this for Leorio. The whole Nen thing is kind of new. If it was going to be this important they should hinted it or mentioned it earlier on. |

| O, another convenient teacher. Do all hunters who pass the exam get one who will teach them Nen ? |
 |
| Nice to see Kurapika again. |
| Kurapika learning Nen too? Nice |

Man... Gon was foolish to immediately fight like that. He's missing out on valuable training time with Wing-Sensei. But I'm sure he and Killua will master Ten in the meantime. |
| |
| It bugs me when a series introduces a new super secret power, then suddenly everybody knows it and if you don't then you're trash. One piece did the same thing with haki, everybody was doing fine without it, then suddenly it's introduced and now anybody who can't use it is a scrub.They could at least let it remain mysterious and powerful for a little while longer, rather than immediately becoming a prerequisite for basic hunter work. |
| i wonder what'll be the ending of this series. |
 |
| Now this part outshines the old version. |

Sahaal_17 said: It bugs me when a series introduces a new super secret power, then suddenly everybody knows it and if you don't then you're trash. Nah but they're implying that it has been used all along, the MCs just didn't know what it was called. For example, Gon used it to hide from Hisoka, and Killua's brother had used it on him. They just didn't know it was Nen. |
| ~ The world is not beautiful, therefore it is. |
| Gon finally figured out the Beyblades moves. No way Gon was gonna Gon his way through this one. Kurapika couldn't see her Stand. Now Kurapika is going to learn Nen. I wonder if Leorio will as well. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Nice try Gon, gl Kurapika |
| Kurapika is also learning Nen eh? Nice. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| I believed this show would be about hunters. Capturing animal or protecting them, bounty hunters, treasures, exploring caves and ruins, etc. However, it looks like it will be based on this Nen martial art thing. Hmm... I think I won't like it too much. |
| Karasuno Fight!!! |
| I feel like there's a sudden tone shift since either this episode or the previous one.. not sure how I feel about it. Also, why the hell is Gon suddenly a strategician? |
I love mischievous neko Killua <3333 xD So cute when he was lecturing Gon :') they're like brothers -^.^- I feel a little bad for Zushi. Wing's focus and excitement has shifted towards Gon and Killua bc of their monstrous potential >< Hisoka has trouble restraining himself too ^^' Can't wait for the upgraded Kurapika either! :D |
| The guy who will be Kurapikas' teacher is SUSPICIOUSLY GENEROUS to train Kurapika... |
  |
| Just when I thought the were trolling us in episode 21… the bring it up again nine episodes later… What do they mean the exam isn’t over… ohhh this makes me A little agitated |
 |
| Still love this arc and the training of Nen! Really looking forwards to see what happens next! |
 |
| Gon's presence-erasing technique was actually a form of Nen he did without even realizing it, wow! Watching him dodge all those tops for that long with his eyes closed was amazing. Kurapika's found out about mastering Nen being the real last part of the Hunter Exam and a fellow Hunter volunteered to teach him how to learn how to fight like he does. |
 |
| Great episode, Kurapika is back into the scene. Our boys are learning to use Nne, I wonder about Leorio though. |
| the OST actually improved, not just in the kurapika scene but also the scene where kilua enter the room after talking to wind, i got chills just from the soundtrack. i actually thought that the end of the battle won't be showed, i had mistaken, those are kind of battles that interesting, hope it will keep up like this. the end of the episode clerified me why the exam arc wasn't over yet, now i understand it all. it's good to see kurapika again, and when hisoke watched gon and smiled i was just like him. |
| Gon breaks his bones once gain...xD Well it's time for Kurapika to learn about the Nen too |
 |
| Holy shit don't tell me that it was Wing's teacher now this is has gone very interesting I can't stop watching this amazing series I'm glad that I watch this. |
 |
| Did that dude just decide to teach Kurapika because he has a nice ass? Pretty creepy imo. |
| I know the same composer for Death Note did this show, but damn, got some serious Death Note vibes from that atmospheric piece towards the end. Good episode. Killua lied to Wing tho— |
 |
| Something bad is going to happen, i can feel it |
| Can't even be surprised Gon x Killua is a ship that makes sense Ok, so I get why Killua is inherently so strong, but why is Gon? Hope that gets explained Nice to see Kurapika again. I'd like to see him learn nen So what's the "real test"? Learning nen? Why did Hisoka just take the test if he already knew it? |
 |
| Ah so Kurapika is learning nen too |
 |
| Big fight coming up but this is great hype up for it |
