| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Killua wins the Rock Paper Scissors contest and wins a fairly rare item but gets it stolen. Then proceed to be stupid and get robbed and they finish it off by touching all the funny monsters having no idea what that are doing. But on the bright side we get Biscuit Krueger who is apparently the Benjamin button of hunter hunter looks like she will whip gon and killua into shape!!! |

| A decent episode but definitely not one of the best. While the spirit of Greed Island was in this episode, something felt off for me at least. Maybe I just watched the episode at a bad time I dunno know. I haven't read Greed Island in a while but I do remember the first half of this arc is on the slow side so I'm glad they're going at this brisk pace. It's weird, I'm liking they're skipping the unimportant stuff but at the same time I'm not. What I did like about the episode though was Biscuit getting pissed at Killua throughout the entire episode and the chibi montage of Gon and Killua trying to kill enemies. Also Biscuit changing her voice when she's playing the cute girl and her teacher voice was pretty funny. Chibi Shalnark!!! : D |

| Great episode. Biscuit seems quite funny. Cannot wait to see her teach Gon and Killuia a better understanding of how to use Nen. Awesome. |

mrsticky005 said: I give this episode a 4 out of 5. The first half was rushed but the second half was better. I would have preferred they saved the Troupe stuff and/or the secret base stuff for a different episode so the episode would include the "unimportant stuff" I don't think every little detail needs to be added but there was some interesting stuff left out particularly a lot of strategy was left out which saddens me because that's one of the reasons why Hunter x Hunter is so awesome. However there was a lot of good humor and sense of adventure in the episode. I think as Hybridblooszak says this episode has the SPIRIT of Greed Island but I think it lacks a little bit of the MIND of Greed Island. Pretty much agree wit dis. But i gave a 5/5 because it's HxH... Hehe |
| That was a good episode, glad they finally met her, since I was a little irritated that such a stranger was stalking them. It was also cool to watch the different creatures and stuff in the game. Also great to hear the ending again, I really like it. 5/5. |
 |
| Loved it. Biscuit showed them up! Hunter x Hunter is always so interesting. |

| Great epsiode. I love Killua's banter with Biscuit. Did Killua's sword get stolen in the manga? I swear they used different methods to make sure they didn't get their cards stolen... Zee530 said: I've always had a problem with biscuits voice but now that i know she's not a little girl, her voice perfectly fits her actually. Yeah I was going to mention that, I didn't notice as much in previous episodes, mostly because she only had a few lines. But her voice sounds a lot more grown up than her body. |
| Wow nobody even mentioned the biggest part of this episode (being in the real world and not virtual) Anyway, they combined the 3 noob players into 1 and cut out all the smart methods Gon and Killua used to counter their methods I remeber the first guy used Levy, and it turns out they put the designated card in the free slot instead, the 2nd time the noob uses another type of Thief to steal form free-slots, only to find out they filled it with stones (that they picked up and turned into stones), a 2nd player comes and I forget what he did, then a fat player comes and explains stuff unnecessarily (which is shown, except it was done by the first guy) and Gon snatches the card from his hand. The 2nd problem is Shal and co. not being in Masadora, or not showing Masadora in the right way, it was nighttime in the OVA with lights and projectors and stuff, felt really cool. 3rd problem: Gon and Kil had a bit of a rivalry concerning Rock-Paper-Scissors and it was really funny, Gon always wins you see...and in the finals, Kil tricks him by using his left arm instead (after Gon reveals that a guy on Whale Island told him a trick to use to guarantee his winning all the time) I really recommend watching episodes 73/74 of the original. Good job on animating the manga parts of monsters, 2nd half was done much better. |

| Why the hurry? They just ruin my favorite arc. I'm really sad now. :( |

| " ...I want to know everything about the game, but it’s a lot to take in – and massive information dumps every week can do a lot to grind the narrative momentum to a crawl. So far I’d judge that he’s got the balance just right – we’re learning bits and pieces (including via the Gon & Killua Tutorial) but I’m not having to stop the video every 30 seconds to catch up. As the boys get deeper into the world where Ging awaits I suspect the layers of mythology will only get deeper too – it’s going to be interesting to see just how much detail the anime provides and how much is left to the imagination" You couldn't have said it better Enzo... while there are hardcore HxH fans who want the anime to show all of the manga's details the majority who hasn't read the manga probably doesn't feel that way. If the anime explained every single little detail like the manga, I can only imagine how long the explanations would be. They definitely could've combined the scenes a little better in this episode but I much prefer this than having to sit through 2 or 3 episodes of what we went through in this episode. http://www.lostinanime.com/2013/01/hunter-x-hunter-2011-62.html#more |

| I don't really care too much about this arc, so im ok with them rushing it. The bandits part seemed pointless to me. |
| Yeah! Bisuke is here!!! Although, I don't like her voice. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| It seems everyone is in agreement here; bad first half, good second half. I, for one, enjoy Togashi's mind games. MH skipping the trivia about Gon being a janken pro wasn't that much of a deal; however, I LOVED that rock card trick, and they shouldn't have removed that part. But I'm fine with MH finishing up fast on the second part, no use extending the battle scenes after all. Overall, MH's fast pace has its pros and cons; Honestly, this was an okay ep for me, probably better IF I never read the manga. But I did, so... :P Vanisher said: The bandits part seemed pointless to me. It won't be later on, trust me ;) |

SHEvA9 said: well hello everybody this place seems to be very dangerous as most of you are manga readers, please avoid spoilers ^_^ as i have understood from shal is that the island is somewhere on the glob but what's up with the in-game characters? are they nen or something? and if a player gets killed on the island, does he really die in the real world? and apparently the reward is very important for that rich man who sent gon and kilua , i believe this game will be cleared very soon as the Ryodan's are already moving ~_^ can't wait for the next episodes and god forbid, i may really read the manga ~_^ Umm since now we know this IS the real world, dying in GI IS death itself, as opposed to what we first thought (dying in-game results in dying outside the game as a consequence). It's their real bodies that are in the game, so that guy who got bombed, had his real body bombed, and so he died then. His body simply teleported back to where the console was. (Battera's mansion) As for those NPCs, they are conjured dolls, the whole game is made by Nen users (Game masters) and all the systems are, are run by, and incorporate nen :) Turning a card into an item and vice versa is a nen ability, that's why Coltopi can't copy it (but he could still copy the card/the item itself) |

| I figured as much about that "little girl", or should I say "old hag". Nice episode. :) Sent with Mal Updater |
| Funny episode, loved it 5/5 |
 |
| He'd have to meet the guy in person, and fulfill all the conditions to do so :P and because his ability requires him to have his book open, it'd be weird seeing him with 2 books at the same time |
| End Zionazism |
| Eh. I remembed the tournament being more interesting. The way they did it here felt like it had no purpose... They didn't learn anything from it. Anyways, Biscuit! :D In the end though, I'm somewhat expecting to be watching this only for the new animation... |
| Try to be considerate for people that don't want spoilers guys -.- |
| There are no spoilers |
| End Zionazism |
| Wow, that tl;dr comments. Great episode, Biscuit finally introduced himself. But is it just me or they are skipping something? Anyways! YO, Narrator! Biscuit is more than a highly experienced pro Hunter! |
| Still beats the abomination that was the Greed Island OVAs. |
| LOL, people complaining about scenes being removed and saying that it's the end of the world. Madhouse has made HxH popular again.They have 340 chapters to work with, I'm sure they know whats important and what isn't. We can't really say much of anything until this arc is over because Madhouse has switched placements of scenes countless times. The episode was still enjoyable. I was expecting certain scenes to show up like everyone else. Anyways, I'm sure Madhouse will make up for it somehow. |
| Great episode. Killua and Gon are such an awesome duo. |
 |
| Monster cards can be found on the wiki lol |

| haha.. love the Biscuit xD Kinda typical of strongest chracrters xD Old hag in a child/teen form usually ^^ |
