| awsum episode poor gon ;___; |
cronosteso23 said: i like this episode: 4/5 but one manga chapter for an episode of 20 minutes.... but i hope that the next episode will cover 3 manga chapters. It was 2 chapter. |
| Amazing so much feels,Gon VA did a great job especially when Gon was lost in his thoughtse,thath scene was heartbreaking and was directed perfectly,''I kill Kite..NO! it was Pitou! no it's my fault'' daaaamn. Also a big f** you Pouf always,ALWAYS he does stuff like that,I hope his death is painfull as it gets! Final note the scene when they open the door to where Kite is didn't seemed like I was watching a shounen rather,a psycollogical thriller with a bit of dose of horror,with the ost fitting perfectly,now that I said ost this episode had little ost's but was right on the spot. The preview was f** unbelievable,soooo hyped for the next episode!! Anger x and x Light! Goooooon! |
| Was Pitou lying??? Since "Komugi" was "saved" Couldn't heal Kaito because he's already dead. |
AnimeFan500 said: Was Pitou lying??? Since "Komugi" was "saved" Couldn't heal Kaito because he's already dead. Nope Pitou didn't lie. |
| Gon is right, it's all his fault. He brought Killua with him to impress Ging while bragging about his friend and shit which is why they got transported to Kite. This is what happens when you're gutless. |

Ruben_Jb said: Minagatachi said: Wow, that scene with Gon was awfully dragged. I was sad at the start of the scene but by the end I was just waiting for it to finish. Rest of the episode was alright. doraemon1992 said: I kind of agree. Kite and Gon haven't even spent much time with each other, and they didn't really share any happy memories or anything (evidence of this is the fact that 90% of Gon's flashbacks of Kite was just him killing shit, nothing sentimental in the slightest). I haven't been able to understand why Gon felt so strongly towards Kite; maybe it was guilt or maybe it was because Kite inspired him to become a hunter. Who knows "shrugs". I'm probably misunderstanding something though, hopefully someone will point it out to me. I always thought that this scene, where Gon is feeling guilty/sad over Kite's confirmation of death, is actually one of the weakest sad scene in HxH. Sure, it is portrayed really well, not to mention madhouse adapt it pretty well too. It's just that I feel there is really barely any or almost none chemistry between Gon and Kite throughout the whole series so far. You can say he's basically Gon's mentor, but they barely synch nor he gave anything substantial to Gon's growth. Okay, maybe Gon feels guilty for causing his death, but to the point of driving Gon into "that" state (next episode, hopefully)? It's way too exaggerated imho. I agree with you guys too. Though, Kite was a good friend of Gin and Gin acknowledges Kite, which was very important for Gon I think. Kite was like one of the few connections with his father and his journey to meet him. Now that thing is taken away from him. Kinda agree to this . And after all the King returning I felt kinda sad no one is mentioning Netero (that whole time Palm watching Pouf )other than Knuckle. |

Is there a certain quantitative measure as to how long someone needs to care about a friend? Or qualitative? Does saving one's life three times, setting him on his journey and just being a genuine friend not count? What about when you are blaming yourself for that friend's death? What about when you are also blaming someone else but are robbed of the ability to let it out? What about when the person you blame shows an act of kindness opposite to what was done to the friend, something he noticed gradually and developed hatred toward? And what if you experienced that all as a kid? I saw this whole show building up to this moment. Not solely the concept of kite's screen time. |
Candor said: Man that was a disappointment. Half of the episode dragging out 1 page while putting in some melodramatic music in there? Really? No I don't want fight already, that can wait, but this episode especially adapted one of the most striking moments in the whole arc, when Gon gives up on his "Kite is still alive" and is struck for a moment while being empty-minded just realizing the truth of the situation before going ape-shit, and what did they do, they insterted some melodramatic music to make things more "sad" and some dragged out flashbacks with repititive frames and animation. It's just.. that music.. fuck. What a way to ruin such a good moment. Pretty much sums up my feelings on this episode. Unlike most, I'm not overly anxious to get to the fight, I enjoy the episodes like this one where emotions run high and you can feel the tension in the air. Unfortunately, this one fell flat. Not as much because of the melodramatic music for me, but because of the drawn out flashbacks. In the manga, when Gon lost his shit, you could feel the guilt, the hopelessness, the despair, etc. All of that was there. With no disrespect to Megumi Han, as she did a wonderful job here, I'm not trying to take anything away from her performance but all those emotions weren't as strong in large part because of the drawn out flashback scenes. This scene was never my favorite "sad" moment from HxH, but it was one of the more captivating moments, especially from this arc, and to see it fall flat was disappointing. If they just would've done some things a bit differently the scene could've been spectacular. |
AnimeFan500 said: Was Pitou lying??? Since "Komugi" was "saved" Couldn't heal Kaito because he's already dead. Pitou didn't know what this "Kaitou" thing Gon was referring to really was. She was just kinda playing along to keep Komugi safe |
 |
| Think he/she was referring to saving komugi therefore being able go save kite. So was she lying when she said "i cant help him"? That's how I interpreted the question haha |
| Different and still good. Better than episode 125. |
 |
| Meh, 3/5 at most. But next one seems very promising with Gon and Killua fighting. |
| There it is. On the preview. So cannot wait for Gon vs. Pitou!!!! |

| Could someone tell me at which chapter of manga I should reading if I want to know, what will happen after this ep? |

| Wow, this was one of the best Hunter X Hunter episodes I've watched so far. The raw emotion of this episode was beautiful, the emotional struggle with Gon was absolutely phenomenal to watch. Pouf is such a strategic villain, in my opinion he is the biggest villain of this arc. Pitou was so evil when she began healing her hand, I felt so sorry for Gon when he thought that she'd heal Kite. Seeing the Kite flashbacks made me so sad, this was such a beautiful episode. I can't wait for Gon to explode on Pitou for what she did to Kite, he must avenge Kite. He shouldn't be blaming himself, it's Pitou's fault for Kite dying because she was the one who killed him. Gon better realize that and destroy Pitou! Next episode will be the craziest one yet, I hope The King will catch Pouf in his lies. I can't wait how the rest of the arc will play out. 5/5 for this episode. |

While it is true that they slowed down few last minutes, it is stupid to say it was bad. If you didn't like it, don't force your opinion on the ones who did. I for example liked it, so it is not a joke. |

RapeGod said: This episode was the best display |
| Lol people gotta realize that if they actually adapted chapters like they usually do then we'd only see half of the events that are to happen next week. I was actually wondering how they were going to handle this and I think they made the right choice. Instead of showing us something and letting it hang for a week, they made a very good build-up episode for what's about to happen. |
| People need to stop complaining so much, geez.. |

With how angry Gon was prior to this, it only makes sense that his entire world being shattered would induce such an emotional response. It'll make the fight (assuming there is to be one) all the more worthwhile. I really don't get the folks that said this was one of the more boring episodes. I'd say it's right up there with the gungi games between Meruem and Komugi. |
| Though the episode felt a bit dragged, the fact remains that this was the BEST decision the studio could make. Those who've read the manga know that, if they didn't extend Gon's pain and his flashbacks of Kite, the following events would be rushed and we probably wouldn't even see them all. Open this if you've read the manga (even though this says nothing specific) |
| I just want to see Gon vs Pitou..... How long will it fucking take? |
| Next Tuesday, most likely. |
| holy shit the pacing is too darn slow its annoying |

Open this if you've read the manga (even though this says nothing specific) That's pretty much what I just said. But our being manga readers and knowing that Mad House made a good move doesn't necessarily make the anime-only peeps' opinions (about it being dragged on) unacceptable. It did feel like it, even though I didn't really mind. Different strokes for different folks. Also, no need for a spoiler tag. Only idiots will be hating on what happens next week because they'll be seeing it as something it isn't. |

But yes, I can see the pros of stopping the episode where they left this week. |

| WUT!!! tht nevr hapnd lol |
  |
| wowzers pouf fuckin everything up |
 |
| well played pouf now finally Gon vs Pitou |
| Life is Fun! Yeah,try chanting that 10,000 times each day! it will mess with your head,and all your pain will disappear |
ichii_1 said: j0x said: holy shit the pacing is too darn slow its annoying Just adds to the theory that the anime won't end and will continue past chapter 340 :) This is impossible. Togashi won't be able to finish a new arc in such a short timespan. The anime would catch up in less than 10 episodes. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| God, what about standing up and fucking Pitou's ass hard ? RELEASE THE NEXT EPISODE NOW!! MADHOUSE |
 |
| Was Kite really this close to Gon? He acts like Killua just died or something. Anyway, looks like he's getting it on now |
Suitedup said: Was Kite really this close to Gon? He acts like Killua just died or something. Kite was the first hunter Gon met. He was the one that told him his dad wasn't dead but was a hunter and introduced him to what being a hunter is. He was a role model to Gon and the start of his quest to find Ging. This doesn't feel so in the anime as in the manga, due to Madhouse's decision to skip Kite's introduction until the Chimera Ant arc, but the importance of Kite to Gon is consistent with the manga. For evidence, check out chapters 1 and 64 of the Hunter x Hunter manga. |
