| Also was waiting for Machi's appearance. Guess I'm gonna have to wait until next week to see my favorite female character. <3 Anyways, what an awesome match. Loved how Hisoka used his amputated arm to scratch his shoulder. *lol* Hisoka is so frickin' creepy and badass. |

| Awesome how Hisoka doesn't show even the slightest concern, Kastro is gonna get owned next episode nuff said XD |
 |
| Finally This ep is the only reason I am watching the Remake :) This fight was 90% cut in the original 5\5 for me |
| Oh I hope Kastro won't die, he's too cool! Anyway awesome episode I really love this show! |
 |
| OH YEAH! Regardless of the censorship, this was awesome! I'm happy they didn't cut this fight off the way the old one did |
| The big brown fox jumps over the lazy dog |
| So, can I be the first one to bitch about it? The censorship and the colorful pattern of the animation are going to destroy the tension of the York Shin arc, which made the arc awesome. While the heavy themes aren't being censored(ex: Gon watching Killua murdering some1 and still being OK with it) the brutality is. And murder immediately brings brutality and blood and severed heads and so on. So how do they avoid it? SPARKLING FREAKING ''blood''. UGH, bullshit. It's either that, or Hisoka is so powerful that the inside of his arm glows. Anyway, why would they ever get the idea to air HxH in the morning...? Even Medaka Box is less brutal than this. |
| Awesome episode, and even though fights censored I'm glad madhouse is actually showing the fight, unlike the 1999 series. 5/5 |

You know a show like Bleach would give you a broken arm instead. The sparkles stopped immediately and you just get a severed arm being tossed around with no significant amount of fucks given. Besides you can already see that the art has significantly changed even for Heavens Arena. The violence and the dark themes are still as they are in all adaptations so nvm about them. Also you can see from last week's flashback that the YS arc is going to be different. |

I don't have a problem with you being the first to bitch about it, but I just want to point out that there has been a lot of blood throughout the series. Hell even in this episode, yes blood wasn't gushing out of the arm, but Hisoka was bleeding from the mouth where he was punched by Kastro. I don't think Yorkshin is even questionable, we have an idea of how it will be handled from previous episodes. We have an idea of what the dark night time scenes will look like from previous episodes, we know that decapitations aren't a problem (even if they are done through shadow animation) and we know that blood for the most part is not an issues (despite a couple of instances like Hisoka's arm being amputated, the guy from episode 3 who had his arms cut off, and when Hisoka killed those examinees during episode 5 I believe) In my opinion Yorkshin will be fine, despite the |
| I have enjoyed the remake so far, and while censorship does bother me, what has been anoying me since it started is the color pattern. They better change it. |

| Damn, cliffhanger! Looks like the fight has just started. |
 |
| Really glad they included the whole battle in this version. Even though their was not much blood, it was still awesome. |
     |
| I think i have myself a new character crush here~ That kastro is pretty cute~ However i dont think he's gonna live long, going by the preview. But i can still hope~! D: I dont really mind the pixie dust coming out of his arm. Im not one for too much gore in my shows. So it was good it was censored. To those complaining, at least they shows him getting his arm cut off. They could of easily just censored that as well. :/ Can't wait for the next episode~ <3 |

Madhouse said something about making the York Shin arc a darker so there's still hope. ludexm said: As far as i remember in the manga, Hisoka sealed a nen aura on the dismembered arm so he won't lose blood. If that's true than that's alight. Even though this is an anime, I just didn't see the logic in someone emitting a glow after getting injured...unless that's his aura spilling out of his body or something. Anything's better than not having a reason for that. Overall, good episode (besides the glowing part but meh, no big deal) |
     "There is someone that I must meet again. And until that day... not even Death himself can take my life away!" |
| Bahaha Edward Cullen has some competition. *shot* No, seriously, I'm happy they didn't completely mess up this fight. At least he still lost his arm. (And LOL at him scratching his shoulder with his amputated arm like "IDGAF". That's amazing, enough said.) Still, it'll be good to see how they handle the rest of the fight next episode. (And Machi. Oh yesss~) Otherwise, I enjoyed Killua in this episode. (But, uh, I don't ever not enjoy him. *facedesk*) That shot of him when Kastro commented that his aura said he wanted to fight was brilliant. Incidentally, so was his face after Kastro left LOL d'aww I'm never going to stop loving this kid. *weekly Killua appreciation over* So yeah, that was good. c: Gon's face sometimes, though! Don't get too excited, you foolish boy. =w= |

| I loved how the commentator girl lived herself into the fight :D:D And also, I just can't get enough of Killua's catface. It's so freaking funny! :DDD |
Vapz said: Bahaha Edward Cullen has some competition. *shot* Apparently. Who knew Hisoka was a fairy? . _ . Ohhh, I want to see Machi and Hisoka without his makeup already. <3 Killua's reaction after he talked to Kastro was funny. But overall, nice episode. The censorship is annoying me a bit though. :/ |
 I still love the way attack names flash up on the screen in combat. Nice feature that other anime ought to adopt. Kind of wish there was a bit more originality though, shadow clone jutsu in my hxh? Why? Censoring is still questionable, the anime can show blood but they revert back to gold reishi particles? Oh and Cocco is an awesome emcee. |

| that announcer chick can get quite annoying, but she fits the part perfectly. as for the censorship....come on guys, are you not really used to this by now? and hisoka can be quite the masochist. |

| Why is Hisoka so badass? who would be able to keep their cool and scratch their shoulder with their severed arm. |

Mikasa said: Comparing the pace? HxH can't fit 4 chapters into one ep. Would be too condensed and many things would have to be omitted quite useless to compare the pace with a series that has had major complains due to pacing. Plus not everyone watches bleach, I don't anymore for example. --- Anyway overall disapointing episode, I don't like the fairy dust. I felt they skipped a lot of dialogue as well so I went and read the manga again to confirm. In the manga hisoka had blood all over his face, there was blood dripping from both ends of the arm, so no it was not sealed up. *Scenes changed, conversations moved from one location to another. *Skipped all parts when killua was bitching about the price of the tickets *Also Gon's reactions to it, "he's a millionaire, listen to him" *skipped the line when killua said that this was their "fatal confrontation/death match", a hint towards a future death, which makes me wonder if the death is going to happen. *forgot to bring paper and a pen *skipped hisoka's thoughts during the fight, that worries me for the spider arc *the dialogue for the commentator was changed *the dialogue between Hisoka and kastro was changed *last but not least, Hisoka shewing on his own arm was removed and changed to something like I now have motivation blabla |
 |
| but those parts are over. The anime has gone past them and if the anime completely followed the manga, then Hisoka should have been taking bites out of his own arm at the end of this episode, not just a staring contest between him and Kastro. Spoiler for those that have not seen the old series or read the manga below: |

| I remember almost every tiny bit of detail from the manga really, recently read it again for like the 3 or 4 time so well hard not to notice :p but as I editted above I think the scene at the end was the scene that was supposed to have some chewing in it, but it did not have any. |

Most of that is nitpicking. Most of episode was word for word the manga. What do you expect? If someone is going to do a comparison and try to site all the changes they noticed of course there is going to be some nitpicking. Why don't you try doing a comparison. You too will end up with a list ranging from minor to major differences. Discarding or not mentioning the minor changes would be dishonest. |
