Feitan is fucking OP. And holy crap, Shizuku :O
I just love watching the Phantom Troupe beating the crap out of the ants to be honest.

Oh and speaking of Feitan, I loved that ability of his...

I never knew he was that strong. Then again, I'm not too surprised since he's a member of Phantom Troupe. That ant can go bite the dust. Great episode 5/5/5/5.

I really liked the color of Feitan's Hatsu.

The Phantom Troupe Gaiden was fun and all but it's time to get back to the real meat of the story. So many players left to be put on the chess board

@GalekC

The teams have been the same since the beginning of the anime. Some teams are better than others obviously but it's not like you can expect the FULL EP sakugas like Tomoko Mori or Mai Ishii every week for a long running show. I really think you're too hung up on the animation instead of just enjoying the show.

Indeed I am, but I'm not the only one. Quite a few others have complained about it so much to the point where it's gotten to me, I think..

And, ever since Attack on Titan, it seems like people have been judging lots of anime based mainly on their animation quality.
It's like, what is this? The lame old argument of graphics making a video game?

In any case, I'm sure this episode has some comedic content on top all the other Ryodan shenanigans to make up for it.
Can't wait to see how Feitan's "Chinese" is handled through Mr. Kappei Yamaguchi's voice.

Ahh, it feels like forever since I read this part, Feitan is as amazing as I remembered in that brilliant shining pissed off moment. xD And even in all the craziness I have to have some respect for Kalluto not backing down either.

I had that weird moment of being extremely touched by the particular kind of mercy the Spiders would offer up to those who couldn't live like that.

After seeing Feitan's nen ability animated, I truly wonder if that other team is as powerful or even stronger..

Anyways, my nigga Feitan went off though. Zazan really fucked up with her ignorance and being too naive. Shalnark pointed out she's knows how to use her nen, but she wasn't truly smart with it. A more experienced nen user would notice the surroundings and run like hell spamming ren over it;s body during Feitan's "delay" time.

I was thinking the exact same thing Shizuku was saying the whole time and before when Pike was dead. If Pike was smart, it should've stopped Shizuku's movements with her legs which gives a few second interval to web the wrists then use his web that comes out his ass. Also, it should've noticed that if Shizuku read an opponents movement only once then he could've took advantage of that if he could.

I guess it's just all experience the Phantom Troupe had lol

I guess I'm just over thinking things haha

And this is why the Phantom Troupe are pure awesome-sauce. And that Kappei Yamaguchi maniacal laugh.

And is that another sibling in that brief flashback of Kalluto's? No spoilers please.

I feel as if the animation complaints are absurd IMHO. I dare anyone to find me five anime with as much consistent quality and are as long as Hunter x Hunter...

Dat Pain Packer ability doe...

Feitan just putting the icing on the cake. People wondered how badass the Ryodan really was, and this just capped it off with the only member's ability yet to be seen being Nobunaga. This is why nobody can fuck with the Spiders.

Feitans power was cool and all..




But I gotta show my love for Phinks and Kalluto!

Phinks was kick ass this episode, through and through. Then he of course finished big, with the whole "Mercy kill" line. And Kalluto was hilarious. He reminded me of Zushi when he was watching Gon and Killua pass him up. He wanted to watch Feitan fight so badly, but Phinks picked him up and dove into cover. Awesome :)!!!

Dayum, Feitan is on a completely different level. I love his maniacal laugh. This battle really showed just how freakin' lucky Gon and the gang were back in the York Shin. Looks like they're finally on the move as well, I really wanna see them in action again.

On a random note though, I'm really starting to miss Kurapika, Leorio, and especially Hisoka.

Awesome ep, so basically the weaker Feitan is going into his Pain Packer state the stronger the sun gets. Is that what he meant when he said ashame you didn't hurt me more, you would of died faster?

Pretty awesome fights regardless, preview for next week looked interesting too.


Not quite, Pain Packer becomes more powerful depending on how much damage Feitan receives from the enemy.

Feitan's Painpacker ability is beast. Pretty sure there are many variations to that ability, would love to see more in the future.

Zazan is strong too but just not as well versed in Nen to full utilize her strength and abilities, what a waste.

The Phantom Troupe powers are definitely at the top and on par with these ants, the fact that Bonolenov and Feitan have to use their Nen abilities goes to show how strong those ants were despite all of them being annihilated. I also like that they actually have more depth and character than most villains in anime, like the part whereby they do not actually care about Feitan's death but who will be replacing him in battle and the calm casualness in battle.

If they really love HxH fans, they should make an epic arc/movie just based on Phantom troupe, would love to see more nen battles and carnage.

Never heard of feminine males who do cross dressing?

In fact it is an in thing in Japan for straight men to dress up and put make up like girls, apparently the women there find it attractive and a big turn on....?

Feitan was a fucking BADASS in this episode. I needed a reason to have a shower and change my underwear this week and this was it.

2 episodes from now is when it will get hectic up until the end of the arc. Besides Breaking Bad, HxH is the only show I count down the days until the next episode, these few weeks will be painful

Meaning what exactly? Two more regular build up episodes until this arc kicks it up a notch permanently? If so, that's extremely good news. Even if this arc has been good so far, along with having the most storytelling potential (from where we are, the story can take so many directions), it is also the only arc in the series with occasional pacing issues. If things get intense soon in terms of storytelling and stays that way until the arc's climax, then this arc could even surpass Yorknew imo.

Wow, Feitan, probably tied with Killua for my opinion on the coolest character in this series. That was so cool!

the thing that struck me was the purpose of showing phantom troupe abilities particularly , or even was there any purpose at all...most likely togashi wanted to give us some clue about what to expect next

i read the arc long ago and probably forgot most of the details ... but whatever, watching the last 2 episodes i believe togashi wanted to establish something that only phantom troupe could prove

phinks won because of raw power (not his peak power )
Bonolenov won by summoning jupiter size sound wave , raw power
Shalnark became kind of super saiyan , raw power
kalluto , well that was his ability , was there any strategy involved ?
faitan , he won plain summoning a sun like object , not much strategy but huge raw power
Shizuku could suck blood , won by the raw power mostly

the thing is gon and gang has less crazier abilities compared to raw power of summoning sun,jupitar,sucking blood and their powers has more likely to do with mixing up strategies (remember morel+knuckle vs cheetu ? )
so when even higher level of ants appear,only raw power is not much of an effective option where you cant have op powers like summoning sun ...you also need wit and strategies with huge aura ...so the situation is more unstable at this point for one vs one rather than a 2 vs 1 match... probably that could also be a reason behind troupes short appearance and showing only their raw powers mostly... good job togashi !!

or maybe am thinking too much... but just wanted to find out reasons behind troupes short appearance and revealing their power at this specific point of story which was bugging me ...
