Most likely yes, they complaining about Netero flashback so this one is coming without a doubt. Haters of the series will see it as their chance to attack the show ect. But who cares about haters.

What I don't understand is why Yorknew fans and Chimera ant fans are always at each other's throats. We all love the same series -_-

I don't get the hate, it's one of the best moments in the entire arc. A total slap-to-the-face to every Shonen cliche. Those chapter made me go from hating Pitou to loving the character. I was actually sad when Gon kills her/him. The same people that always bitch will bitch so w/e.

i personally love this arc. and i love the pitou gon "fight" but everyone in the anime forums is hyping up to be this epic battle no matter what you tell em. although i think the netero and king fight will be much better animated. i just got done re re re re rereading this arc lol and once the fighting really gets going the narration dies down alot so i think that will take care of some of the narrator haters out there. but as long as these anime fans can keep their expectations low we'll be alright.

I don't read the manga, but at the moment, I think Yorknew City arc is better. Remember I said "at the moment".

There's a key difference, a lot of the other times those are seen as positive power ups with no consequences that the MC's can use for the future(Super Saiyan, Kugi Utensil #XXX, Natsu Fire/Lightning Combo,)

Gon's was cast in a negative light with very harsh consequences which was a one shot no turning back deal that isn't compounded onto his combat repertoire. Also how is Gon using the Oath/Restriction system that was introduced all the way back in Yorknew random(albeit to an extreme degree)?

If anything people are gonna call BS on
since Togashi set up all the rules pertaining to it

I think you got the wrong chapters in mind. He is talking about Gon DEM powerup, not his first confrontation with Pitou.

Even then what do you mean by 'slap to the face to every Shounen cliche'?

But they were not DEM or asspulls aside from Natsu's. Kaioken has negative effects, just sayian.

Ohhh... we'll definitely get a shitstorm. Let's see how the anime-only fans fare with regards to the stuff going on in chapter 305/306. And if that wasn't enough, the Alluka stuff should be enough to add fuel to the fire.

another issue is that it was a rather short squash match too. Certainly will be glorious looking in the anime no doubt, but will definitely disappoint those who hold the series up as a work that involves a higher level of thinking when it comes to battles.

all of this arc about emotions
even battles were about emotions
Togashi don't like stuck in same story and same way to present it
so every arc he changed the way that he present his story
