| Sure there was no Gon or Killua but it was still a good episode. The ending moments were so worth it and the identity of the two dudes unveiled was actually pretty exciting. Based on what weve seen of Killua, I cant even imagine the type of skill level and power that the Silva and Zeno Goldicks may even possess. Hopefully Feitan and Shalnark arent their targets, I dont want to see either die. and speaking of Feitan, I hope he gets a good fight, easily the best Phantom Troupe member. Shalnark is alright too but I cant see how he'd fight with that ability in a one on one (also is he a Hunter?). Chrollo is such a good antagonist, best looks, and just that personality. Im assuming he wont die, based on that prophecy? I dont think the Phantom Troupe would disband or he can die because then that leaves Kurapika with a useless power the rest of the series...So I guess he has some ability that will make him resilient against Kurapika's epic god tier abilities. |

| ^ Don't worry, it'll happen... and yes Shal can fight on-one-one...pretty scary too :P |

| Brilliant episode! Though, somehow I prefer the Indoor Fish from the original series. |
| After a disappointing last week (episode 50) I was expecting them to blow the money on this one and the next and woah they did. This was sooooooo awesome, no complains here just praises this week. Gonna watch the end again and possibly again after that. 5/5 |

edl01 said: The prophecy also seems interesting, from what is sounds the Phantom Troupe is going to be defeated and lose four members(half of its limbs and a spider has eight) but Chrollo is going to remain the leader and escape eastwards to find replacements you forget that the prophecy can be avoided, the mafia bosses have done so in the past and now Chrollo knows about this one. There is more but that would be a spoiler so... |
|
| I've watched the original it's good to see the remake is just as good. Hope they continue on from where they left off in the original. |

| 3 Words: CHROLO MOTHERFUCKIN LUCIFER! |
| CHROLLO* LUCILFER* |

| The Ryodan spider is 12-legged. So 6 members according to the prophecy |

| Excellent! |

| RAMPAGE. love the troupe |
 |
| wow these latest episodes makes me think that the whole staff changed or they just started loving hxh. |
 |
| Nice buildup episode for next week. Love the requiem. Cant wait for Chrollo vs. Silva! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Speaking of Light, why didn't they use Miyano Mamoru's character song for the opening, it fits just fine T.T and they already made it...budget my ass |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| ^If they completely changed the song, they would've probably had to change all the clips too. new animation = $$ or they just really like departure. |
| Indoor fishes FTW. |
| The end of the episode gave me the chills~~~ So epic! I love that the music played over the ending too. |
 |
| Wow the music in this episode was really executed well. The highlights were when Chrollo was reading his fortune and then obviously the Requiem at the end. I'm not too bummed but I kinda wish they coulda somehow transitioned into Hunting for your Dream at the end somehow. Anime only viewers also learned the name of the leader today! Chrollo has this engimatic aura around you can't help but watch. The Zoldyck's vs Chrollo next week is gonna be EPIC!! |
| the blood parts in this episode made me cringe a little bit i don't know if i can handle the 'chimera' (i think its called ?) arc because of what everyone has said.. Neon looked really cute in that dress & it was realllyy nasty to see her get manipulated like that >.< |

| What an amzing episode!!!! And that Requiem.... I almost died here... Great!!!! |
 |
| Amazing ending, and awesome episode, nothing to say... |
 |
| Around the time Feitan said "go absolutely crazy" (quoting chrollo) Gon and Kil were fighting before they escaped from Nobunaga :P |
| End Zionazism |
| Fantastic episode, every episode makes me want more... i'm felling that the next week's episode will have an epic fight XD |
 |
| Shounen anime at its finest. Such a beautiful sight to behold. |
 |
| Fucking amazing! |
- Signature Removed - The signature seriously lacked "It's a Sony" qualities. |
| HxH is such a breath of fresh air in the current stale shounen genre. This arc is simply fantastic. |

I don't see how the requiem song would've transitioned well to the normal ED song no matter what MH tried doing. What they ended up with was rather interesting though. It does show that they really wanted a certain mood/tone to this ep, unlike the others. And I did not even realize that they haven't mentioned his name in the anime itself. Dx now I regret calling him by his name... |
| Finally we get some action again, and it's pretty cool (with the elites fighting). The problem is again, that the troupe is super powerful and cannot be taken down with yet another esteemed group of hitmen. I also think Kurapika's skill to locate someone on a map is very improvised, and it feels like cheating (like he has so many powers that are specific to what he needs at that moment). Well, I just hope the action gets better, it's great to watch the epic fights. 4/5 |

Damn, it's that violent? I don't read the manga, but I've watched the old series, so I'm more interested in how Madhouse will handle Greed Island. Is Greed Island also much more violent in the manga? |

| GI doesn't need to be violent. CA will be crazy though damn. |
| RESPECT MADHOUSE truly epic episode the requiem in the end theme was genius ... how many episodes GI arc will take in the MH version ? |

| I think a lot of you guys overrate the Chimera Ant stuff (not on the violence of course but as an arc in general). Not to say that the arc is bad, but it gets hype like it's the defining arc of HxH in a lot of these threads. Putting my own opinions of the arc aside, I think it's too controversial (in there are a lot of people who thought it was disappointing but at the same time a lot of people loved it) to be considered the best arc. Now that I got that out of the way, time for me to make the point I wanted to make. In my general opinion, I think this is the most well recieved arc by the majority of people (including myself) so I am extremely happy to see how Madhouse has adapted it and to see that it has been well recieved by the new fans as well. The fact that this version has captured the same feelings to new fans the way the original did for me is great to see. I can't wait to see Greed Island because I was genuinely disappointed by how the OVAs handled them. They dropped the ball on GI and I have no doubt that Madhouse will do an amazing job with it. So to see GI done right is what I'm looking forward to here within the next couple months when it comes up. That arc was my 2nd favorite so I will be looking forward to it. |
| GI doesn't need to be violent? @fearthebeard well not really, it had the best developments for many characters, including the MCs, many things were (or are being) foreshadowed and the story itself was the best in HxH. Besides, HxH is one of the very few shonens that can up the cool factor and story quality at the same time, and CA is one of the many examples :P |
| End Zionazism |
| fearthebeard85 agree that the chimera arc is controversial, it's a love it or hate it kind of arc. Imo the chimera arc was terribly boring and bland. This arc is by far the best one. |
|
| A masterpiece. This episode is really the best anime episode of 2012 and probably 2011 as well. |

So to see GI done right is what I'm looking forward to here within the next couple months when it comes up. That arc was my 2nd favorite so I will be looking forward to it. That arc is the some of the best qualities a shonen can offer (along with the follow-up arc - the election) The hate was because of the hiatuses that were along the road and weirdness of the enemies since YS offered a realistic setting so it's weird to see magical beasts after so long. People start acting as if they came out of nowhere. Compared to YS, it's really an underrated arc. A lot of hate was personal and only a few disliked it. So technically it was better received than the YS arc. As for the OVAs, I really liked them. The first OVA was really great, better than YS itself for me. It also felt more like New York lol. The 2nd OVA was good and the 3rd, while some animation moments were....retarded...and it had many changes, was still a good adaptation. :) |
