This episode was so cool :)! Making the king look a bit more human than the previous eps was a great choice!

F*ck Gon, f*ck Killua, f*ck super overrated Chrollo, (I still like second best boy Hisoka) Meruem is the most captivating character in this anime. To be fair, he´s probably the most interesting villian I have seen in battle shonen, and there are still 28 episodes left till this arc finishes.

The preparations for the palace raid are almost complete but there's still no sign of Palm as of now even after the Royal Guards were shown chatting with each other... Surprisingly enough, I think that I've started to warm up towards those three despite what they've done since they're such adorable weirdoes, especially Pouf. That doesn't mean that I wouldn't want to see them killed by the Gon Gang though.

Meruem having a mini questioning his existence moment over realizing that he still doesn't have a name that he's aware of was interesting.

Komugi awakening her Nen through playing Gungi made Meruem figure out how to awaken his own overwhelmingly powerful Nen but even though he initially had the resolve to crush her like the bug he thought she was, seeing her getting severely damaged just because of a stray eagle softened his heart in an instant and had him rescue her without the slightest hint of hesitation. That was touching enough to make me cry to be honest.

I hope Komugi doesn't get killed, I wonder if that would trigger something in Meruem. Honestly going into this series I thought he would be just another OP villain created simply to match up with Netero but I was wrong

Oh man what a good double bait and switch. The kings speech started off making you think he's gonna regret his actions and respect power of all kinds, but then he switches back to boring OP villain. But then you're baited again when he saves the girl he was going to kill.

Komugi really is something, it seems that the king is really learning a lot and as a consequence, changing as time goes. I wonder if somebody else beat him at some other field he's interested in, he would change even more accordingly.

I can not tell you how beutiful this episode was, the timing of everything is just to great, every episode to this point have built suspense for the last moment in the episode. I am just making this to tell you what a great episode it was, nothing more.

Awww Meruem likes her <33 (I would like him more if he wasn't so evil tho). I also thought it was weird that a random bird was attacking her lol

I knew from the start that Kmougi is secretly some Monster. She brought "the King" to his knees.

Finally, they gave the king a humanized look, his explosive personality was already a drug, in addition to killing and assaulting his own companions for futile reasons.

That ending scene was one of the best I've seen so far in this anime. Such amazing character development coming through and I love it. I also love how well HxH makes such enjoyable main villains. The King, Hisoka and Chrollo are some of the best villains in anime that I've seen in a long time. They're great characters with interesting developments and personalities, not at all like the regular generic villains from other shows.

I did not expect the relationship between the girl and the king to be so entertaining tbh. He certainly changes his opinion quite often on what power actually is.

Omfg Mereum's character is so consistently yet beautifully changing that it is astonishing , Unlike most 'Char dev' where either the char never develops or it just becomes unnatural , mereum is just so fucking real.

Damn. I think HxH has made me tear up a few times now.
Once at the end of this episode, and also a while back when Gon cried cause he couldn't defeat Knuckle and go to NGL. I'm sure there are more, but one thing I can say for sure is that this anime is definitely deeper than it seems.

I detest the ever generic Pouf, and his gay over the top dramatic nonsense. Violin, blonde string hair, butterfly wings, and all.

I hope Morel turns the fuck up and gives him the beatdown.


That last scene with the king was not only pleasing, but hilarious as he's talking to himself inside his head trying to snap out of it, while saying all these caring things to Komugi.




Pouf and Generic don't go together

That was such a beautiful episode, that ending was excellent. I'm so glad that they included one of my fav bits from the manga, which is Youpi's confused reactions to his fellow royal guard's strange antics.

For real, Meruem is definitely one of the most well-written antagonist ever, and arguably the best. His character development always leave me astounded.

Man... I loved this episode so much. Komugi finally revealed her name to the King and he understands his power as well yet he cares about her for some reason. I found it very fascinating. She's so precious and gentle. Also, I'm falling in love with Meruem's character.

What a great episode.

Oh jeez, now I'm starting to like this mass murderer of a king. Though when you think about it, he was just only recently born and has been acting on instinct with no real knowledge of the world and without any meaningful life experiences...


bad take, he Was born with knowledge of the world, and most people don't have the "instrinct" to commit mass murder.

But anyway, I am enjoying how things are going with him.
