fillers fuck HxH they make me w8 10 days just for a god damn fiiller fight anyway this is getting lame.. Very lame.



...The fight isn't a filler


no the fact that his only fighting weakling ants is already a god damn filler this is driving me crazy i used to watch HxH with full satisfaction, but now watching HxH starting a couple of weeks ago drives me angry. i don't know what to do if this freaking shit episodes keeps rolling.


I think you're forgetting that Meleoron was watching the fight and made an observation that can affect the story. The fight is important in the grand scheme of things. Of course, it might not be as important as other fights, but it has its own importance. It is in no way filler, in fact, it is build-up (like many of the previous episodes) and without it, the story that HxH is trying to tell would not be to achieve the level of acclaim that people say it has.


for******** sakes he was already observing him in the last episode, this fight shouldn't even last a couple of minutes max 5, and they could have inserted this on the previous episode instead of the 20 minute chitchat from gon and killua,
they are definitely trying to prolong this freaking arc, a freaking filler fight for 15minutes? are freaking kidding me this is bullshit.

Welp, my question was answered as to why better support isn't being given to handle the Chimera Ant crisis. It seems there is abundant in-fighting and political maneuvering within the Hunter's Association. Good episode, great arc, amazing series.

Madhouse playing with my feels with that ED, Gon's face, as well as Komugi's appearance. Was excited to see her, but never thought I'd see her right now. A great ED. Though seriously, 4 pages and no mention of octopus of the arc? Really?

Good episode overall. Liked Gon's fight, and the politics were interesting.

I really can't wait for Killua to battle this time. It looks like it is his time to shine in the next episode. He will battle that sniper.

Just wait dude. The character development he'll get is much better than many main characters. Well Gon and Killua will be getting lots of development too. So wait and enjoy :D


Is the King that kid that hated humans and became a rebel leader reincarnated?

Really digged this episode, particularly the stuff about the in fighting. Which explains a lot.

The most intriguing the was the ED, especially the fact that Mereum and a yet to be introduced character dominated it. I wonder what this means.

Okay I give up. The episode before this bored me to fucking death, I wasn't even able to watch it fully and I skipped around it. In this episode Gon fight was good and all but nothing else I care for happened, it's still just build up 3/5.

I'm gonna just put this on-hold until episode 115 and then marathon it or better yet wait till the arc is almost finished, better than hating on one of my favorite series. I hope the second half of the arc is great and makes up for a lackluster first half.

Big step up from last week.
The fight was pretty good for a fodderfight... but that doesn´t mean much. The technical shit was nice, but apart from that nothing too crazy.
The second half was much better. While I bitched hard last week about the story just not progressing, this time we finally got interesting dialogue again. The political background why some hunters weren´t sent was very interesting.
Now I just hope that we don´t get another bad episode again next week xD

I would have preferred a different Animation Director for the next episode...it'll be the same people who did Killua vs. Rammot. :/

They do alright with closeup shots at least (these next few chapters have a lot of that), so this may be an exception for the team in a long while, hopefully.

agreed, the build up is to slow. if transition is in this consistency this arc might consist at least 50 + more episodes.

Gl w8ting this arc to finish XD, i can a sure you that it last at least a year


the author can still relax he has a minimum of 2 years more before this arc and election arc to be finished.

"Filler" is still the wrong term. You can rant all you want, but that won't change the clear definition of a filler, which obviously hasn't anything to do with this episode.

Also the episode consists of 3 COMPLETE manga chapters. That's perfectly fine for an adaption.

Uh... no lol.

For starters, we probably have about 30 episodes left of this arc. Second, the election arc is only 22 chapters which would equate to 10-11 episodes, basic math skills tell us that this show doesn't have anywhere close to 2 years left. Third, yeah Togashi can relax because regardless of if he returned tomorrow or in 2 years it won't make a difference, this anime will either end at the end of this arc or the arc that follows regardless of what he does and nothing can change that fact.

why?
let's assume you're right and we only have about 30 episodes left...
next arc will be very short since it's only 21 chapters long
if all goes well... we have about 1year(?!) left for this

maybe togashi will pick it up again in the meantime?
maybe he'll start by the end of the year.. and we'll get a chapter/week
who knows what might happen then? why would they end this anime if togashi finally gets off his lazy ass?


there is also the possibility of the anime continuing without the manga
togashi could tell the team how he envisions the story to go on

anything could happen, but this whole hiatus-thing is definitely annoying... i just want to continue watching Hunter x Hunter ._.

It's not really about stating the truth or anything. It's a "discussion" (like the thread says, only the topic broadened). There's nothing wrong with that, because many people enjoy that kind of sharing their thoughts and so on.

Lmao, get real buddy. It's ironic that in trying to condescend in such a manner you are entering the category of "everyone here who thinks they know everything about nothing" that you oh so much despise. Congratulations there pal.

Anyhow, I didn't state anything that wasn't already an obvious observation. Togashi has been on hiatus for almost 2 years now. In his strand of writing the Chimera Ant arc, he took several hiatuses that accumulated into an 8 year long arc. Let me repeat that... it took him 8 years to finish one arc. This current string of chapters he released before going on this hiatus was the longest uninterrupted strand of chapters released and it only lasted for 30 chapters. As stated earlier, he has been on hiatus for almost 2 years now with no sign of return in the near future.

Tell me where this anime is going to get the material from to continue past either the CA or Chairman Election arc? Even if Togashi came back and started drawing tomorrow, his longest uninterrupted period of releasing chapters is 30. The best one could hope for is that he makes a dent in the following arc in the next year and by 2015 they get the chance to adapt maybe part of that arc. So explain to me again, where are they exactly going to get the material from?

This isn't even taking into consideration the timeslot change, which history has proved, for anime that make that drastic time change shelf life isn't too long over in Japan.

Well, instead of speaking in absolutes, one should better speak in likelyhoods. And in that case, one can say it's extremely likely that the anime will end at the Election-arc. The parent poster was right in pointing out the hiatusses and the average writing-span of Togashi. Regardless of my admiration for the mangaka - and he sure has strokes of genius - one must acknowledge he's a lazy bastard. (Or, at least, has shown little activity the last 8 years).

So, there are only three options:

1)They end it more or less where it's ended now, at the Election-arc.
2)They continue with it making things up (some anime have done that)
3)Togashi suddenly gets his shit together and writes like he's never written before, and finishes another complete arc before the anime catches on to him.


Of all 3 options, the former seems vastly more likely than the latter. And imho, the second isn't very likely neither, seen the past history where that did NOT continue while making arcs up (aka, with the old anime).

Now, concerning the eternal dispute here whether it's just a forum for discussing random (anime) things, or people should say something sensible... I guess that depends entirely how an an individual subjectively views it. What, indeed, is the purpose of a discussion in a forum?

At the very least, it's an expression of thoughts. Agreed. But I do not believe any opinion is as much worth as the next. Well, as 'mere' opinions without any argumentation given, they might be equal, but as a whole, the opinions that are substantiated by rational arguments and logical reasoning are clearly superior to those that don't. Therein lays the true value of a stated opinion or claim, and the less an opinion is substantiated as such, the less value it has in any objective way. Whereas, as an expression of pure subjective thought, all opinions are equal and worth as much, even diametrically opposed ones (aka, they're actually worthless to establish anything that pertains to deal with reality).

There would also be another possibilty. Which is that Togashi starts writing again (consistently) and they have a weekly anime that mixes filler in from time to time before catching up to the manga.
But that would also kill the anime for me and I would immediately switch to manga only (apart from it being unlikely).
But yeah... my guess (and hope) is that they just end it and hopefully pick it up once another full arc is finished

I really can't understand the complaining over Gon's battle this week. Of course, it's an opportunity for Meleoron to guage and observe Gon's prowess in battle, but also an opportunity to show his growth and ingenuity in combat; that's kind of important with an ever-expanding storyline with more and more perspectives being introduced, and less time for Gon himself to take the spotlight.

That aside, showing Killua's progress in alerting the country and the intrigue involving the Hunter's Association is all necessary buildup for what's coming ahead - this would all be a sloppy, poorly paced rush-job, otherwise. Aside from the needless justification, I thought it was very entertaining, despite. The writing and animation are rock-solid as always, and even in these more "mundane" episodes, I generally find HxH to be largely more compelling than the other weekly offerings.

i would happily make a bet on you guys that this arc would last longer than 40 episodes. if they stop making all the nonsense scenes. i bet the next episode is another fight against noob ants.

and seriously gon's ingenuity and growth in combat? he has done so many amazing feats in so many battles, and what growth didn't see anything at all? seriously there was nothing special. they just prolonged the arc.


i like fight scenes but not like this, if every fights against low lvl ants is ganna take this long. it would drive me crazy, theres killua gon, netero ,knuckle, shoot any many more. theres going to be tons of battle and tons of other shit thats needs to be shown. it was a waste of episode making his fight last 15 minutes. gon alone has tons of fights ahead of him. so im really annoyed very annoyed.


and lastly they made me wait 10 freaking days (was about to toss my monitor when i finished watching, i can't believe that was it) . not satisfied rated it 2/5.

I think you are missing the point... You say Gon has had so many amazing feats, yet he really hasn't. He has had a few, sure. The show has stressed multiple times that Gon doesn't have enough combat experience and while he has spent a ton of time training, he can't really use it well if he can't apply it. You also seemed to miss that these "low level ants" weren't a push over. It helps develop and push the threat of the arc. I don't want to see a 2 minute scene of Gon steam rolling low level ants, it wouldn't add to the show at all and THAT would be a waste. Personally, I enjoyed the strategy used in the fight as it made it more interesting to watch - I'd rather not have HxH fights turn into generic shonen fights where only the main baddie puts up a tough fight, only to have the lead character power up to beat him. It's almost like you want him to one shot every little guy until he gets to neferpitou -.-

Maybe the fact that I've read the manga and know where things are heading helps. Also, Gon does not have a "ton" of fights ahead of him.

and seriously gon's ingenuity and growth in combat? he has done so many amazing feats in so many battles, and what growth didn't see anything at all? seriously there was nothing special. they just prolonged the arc.

I would debate how much Gon's actually done up to this point in actual combat. Of course, his reckless gambit against Genthru at Greed Island was impressive, but that's been about it thus far. Aside from him knocking around a couple ants near the beginning of the arc, we haven't seen much from him in the way of high-stakes battles.

As for the fight itself, I just couldn't help but be entertained by how the battle played out, and impressed by the quality of animation; that's a selling point to me right there - nothing seemed throwaway to me about it.

You would assume.

and lastly they made me wait 10 freaking days (was about to toss my monitor when i finished watching, i can't believe that was it) . not satisfied rated it 2/5.

Not sure where this sense of entitlement is coming from. Honestly, I think much of your anger is coming from expectations; largely stemming from the perception that this is just another formulaic battle shonen. Togashi should have displayed by now that he likes to defy conventions. Give the series a little more credit, and enjoy the ride. If one episode per sitting isn't enough, it might be better to just wait and watch 2-3 at a time a few weeks later.

maybe i should, well all past arc was very enjoyable and awesome.i was expecting the same or even more in this one. didn't turn out the they way i thought it would.
My biggest regret is using my real name as my user name.

The continuous pursuit of finding that genuine thing.

I prefer the previous ED much more, but I guess it was necessary to introduce the new character. It seems like this arc still has a long way to go... I'm going to hang in there, I don't want to catch up with the latest ep as I don't want to wait a week for a episode, but well...

First half was meh, Gon has the power to create a gust of wind just by swinging a tree? Really? And again, Gon can move while activating his Jankenpon? If that's the case then I don't see the channeling period as a weakness anymore. Second half was okay.

New ED, the song is okay, need time to get used to it, but I like the ED sequence, Meruem and the other person. The part with Gon and the fiery red background caught my attention, his stare, that was awesome.

These past 2 episodes are making it even harder to take the show seriously.

New ED is ok. Maybe I'll like it more as I watch more. Looks like there's a bunch of spoilers in it.

Gon is getting better at his strategies in combat.
I'd like to see the scissor ability more.

Yeah, I'd like to see scissors more too.

Hearing about the political side of the Hunter Association was interesting. I hope Gon and Killua haven't screwed up Netero's plan too badly.

Like the internet before, I now find myself semi-surprised that there are tanks and jets in the HxH-verse. (Not to mention the nuclear weapon Kil mentioned in the last episode.) I hope Killua can handle them.
