Good episode.
Woah, this ost is so awesome! Even the ant stuff was great to hear.
Cool, Panzu and the guy are back. I was actually like Panzu now.
Wow, that plane scene totally made me remember the first time when they got in the plane for some reason.
Good stuff, but I don't see anything that is worth mentioning yet since I don't really know the story in this arc yet except the part of the ant want to eat humans, and give birth to the king.

man im finding the chimera colony so fascinating, im kind of skipping all the scenes not related to them. its just interesting how theyre discovering human culture, and evolving by the minute, and its all kind of gross but still fascinating

the chimera ant queen caused the death of countless people... imagine if Gon fought and defeated her and he will be, again all like: "you lost but I won't kill you instead I will help you recover".. just like what he did to the bombers on the Greed Island Arc... oh god-fucking dammit! I really hate that!!

I thought those guys don't like machines??? they shouldn't use guns then.. more like bows and arrows..

Its nice to see Ponzu and the other hunter guy alive and kicking... wait. whats their relationship again??

Ants.With massive tits. Are you serious?! I'm really not liking these chimera ant character designs at all,they all seem like filler characters to me. Glad to see Pokkle and Ponzu again.

This is fascinating. They can communicate with humans, they can read books ALREADY.

This is a real stretch to me how fast they are suddenly advancing. Also, I wish they all looked a more ant-like. Some of them don't look like ants at all.

So this is taking place in a nation composed of militant Amish? Lol I wonder why the mangaka would have them treat people with technology with such violence? Maybe he did this to make us feel less sorry for them.
Love and Peace!!!

Still meh so far.. but I shall reserve any premature judgements.
Premature judgements aside, let me just warn you that the next episode is mostly filler. This episode had partial filler, but not to the extent of the next one.

Not much to be said regarding filler after that, thankfully though.

i wished this anime had settled the Phantom Troupe stuff before moving to a completely new threat (an it looks like that was bout it with the PT an most of them did absolutely nothing, what a dissapoinment)
anyways not much to say about this arc thus far other than, damn these designs for the chimera ants look like a joke

Those Chimera have surprising personalities. There was even a kind of attractive one. Didn't expect that. I don't know if she was eating alligators, turtles, and penguins along with humans. I thought they would all become more human like if she had a pure human diet.

Ponzu's back! <3

The arrow guy too.

These Chimera are awful. Now they have personalities and a sense of individualism. One of them was even intelligent. Bleh. They've had their first encounter with resistance, though. Did anyone notice the first squad leader (the one that came from the two children) balk at taking the children's mom?

I hope these things don't learn how to use nen.

The interesting thing is that the scene between Colt and his mother wasn't in the manga iirc. One of the relatively small additions from Madhouse that I really liked.

I have the feeling Kaito crew won't last very long against such a dangerous threat. Hunters can defend themself, but those researchers, they aren't trained for fighting. Not only that, I have the feeling the humans that were fighting aren't really friendly too.

I feel like the Queen is not seeing the threat her own commanders are creating. The turtle question is not innocent at all. What is one of the most human principle. Simply liberty. The liberty to have a name, the liberty to have a free will, the liberty of having rights. Once those intelligent ants will have tasted the liberty, they'll become more and more deviant. If she create a too big army, it may become uncontrollable.

In any case, it really is a slaugther. The humans aren't opposing much of a resistance and it won't last long with such a fast progression and expension of the ant race. That poor mom who lost everything and has saw her village get swept away... And that woman being totally tactless : ''Look, it's those monster who probably kidnapped your children and eated them! Look!!!'' :|

NGL is a really interesting concept to me. I wonder if it would work in the real world? Send all the vegans and tree-huggers there, hah. The boy that was eaten at the start was obviously turned into the first squadron leader. I'm gonna guess he'll have a bigger part to play later in the arc.

The way Ponzu and Pokkle were introduced was a little confusing, but it'll be interesting to have them back in the story again. Still, I hope we'll be seeing more of Leorio and Kurapika soon! Ponzu and Pokkle are very boring run-of-the-mill characters compared to them.

The ants seem to be developing more emotions and individuality as a result of mixing with human genes, which might be a recipe for inner conflict. I'm going to assume these changes just mean they are becoming more intelligent compared to before -- I don't agree that it is possible for a species to possess intelligence without human emotions and individuality.

I expected the mom to look like that. I knew Ant Kurt would hesitate when he saw her.

Ooouuuu ;O that one mutant chimera ant had strong feelings towards the mother bc of its human part, Kurt, and spared capturing the mother. He picked up the random village man instead for the queen's feeding. Interesting.

Shit, if they eat a Nen user, this shit will blow up outta proportion D: yikessssss.

I didn't know Ponzu knew that one hunter that passed with Gon :0 I wonder if they're related or grew up together or whatever.

A lot of Ant-Animal hybrids have been produced, with them openly competing against each other and being able to think out of their own free will. The Squadron Leaders are going to name themselves so I wonder what they'll identify as. It's also very interesting that the Ant who had Kurt's genes was instinctively able to recognize his real mom. DNA might not have been the only data that's been transferred to those newborn ants...

Gon and Killua have no idea on what they'll be getting into but they don't have time to fear the threats that may lie in store for them at the NGL.

It seems the newest produced Chimera ants are capable of human emotion and basic thinking. When we get to the king, he might actually be a full-fledged human himself.

Can't say I feel bad for these people when they choose to live like this, away form technology, prosperity and the rest of human civilisation.
Sure, there is a lot of evil and corruption in that world, but also lots of positive things.
Well, there was at least some resistance to the ants attacks.
Speaking of which, some of these ants are pretty fascinating characters,

gon choice to keep up with kite seems to be little not understood, what he's aiming for by going with him?
it's kinda hard to call those chimeras ant as they look like animals and human together, but it's just getting more interesting as they evolve to deep thoughts.
it's still feels as we only at the beginning and preparing for the climax of the arc, i know the arc pretty long but i hope things will get started already.

I was unsure at first but this arc is getting more and more interesting! I'm happy to see characters from the Hunter exam. I definitely didn't expect Ponzu to return. Hopefully the two will get more screen time than before because it really wasn't much.
