| That was quite a sad episode plus we got to see Ging. Next episode has Hisoka I see. Finally! I miss him and his pedophile comments. |
  |
| So, this is the last arc before the anime ends? The anime's story it's too close to the manga, it will end soon. I give it more 14 episodes to end, 20 at max. |
| WTF Meruem's brother turned out to be the reincarnated Kite ... as a girl ? XDDDDD Yay no more ants and Hisoka is back. |
| The Zodiacs seem to be an interesting group. I'm more interested in the method Killua will employ to save Gon. |

| dem feels. This arc is gonna be great. jreginald said: RedRoseFring said: The Zodiacs seem to be an interesting group. I'm more interested in the method Killua will employ to save Gon. With the power of the Dragon Balls. but with much higher risks. "give me your fingernail". I'm just saiyajin. |
| That chimera chick that can eat nen curses I think she will cure Chrollo if that other dude didn't work out. New ed next ep I hope and new op animation :) |
 |
| The mother/daughter reunion was beautiful, Kite being reborn as a little girl was odd, Ging appearing at the end of the episode made me scream like a school girl. Very satisfying episode and now I'm hyped for the election arc. |
| "Try to not die before you die" quote of the month Woah, Ging?! |
They pulled a Fate Stay night.. |
 |
| was a long ride but the ant arc is finally over had a blast seeing all these great moments! just have to say i love the set up so far for this new arc already kite an kid now killua is set on saving Gon Zodiacs are here and they look mad weird Ging is fucking here! Hisoka is fucking here too! |
 |
| Is my beloved Hisoka going to make an appearance in the next episode?! Yay! Hisoka, darling, you've been gone too long. My body is totally ready for you!! A true mother's love...there's nothing else in the world like it. The reunion scene with Reina and her mother was absolutely beautiful. Looks like a little bit of Kite still lives on. Though, I would've prefered it if that little piece was in the body of a boy. Morel's reaction to that revelation was priceless! Sent with Mal Updater |
 |
| Kite's alive, that was unexpected. I just couldn't hold back the tears when I saw Reina reunite with her mom, I agree there's nothing like a mother's love I'm so happy they got back together, I hope Colt does as well now. I can't believe Ging is here! By the way if someone doesn't mind explaining (I must've forgotten) who are the Zodiacs? |
| Shitload of goosebumps at the end. Great episode. |

In the next episode, there will be more explications about them. |
| You have to feel bad for Hisoka, he's probably going to fall into a deep depression because he never got to fight the king or the royal guard. |

| Cty Best mid |
| nice to hear some different OST's and and a sick ending reveal next episode looks fun also Hisoka returns hype |
 |
| So looking forward to the next episode to see more of Ging. And btw, WTF KITE WTF JUST HAPPENED?! |
 "Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?" |
| I feel like a lot of the surprises in this episode were dulled for me... but oh well, still an amazing episode. The scene with Reina and her mother had me choking up. :') What a touching reunion. Also, all those flowers lined up outside the palace... Shiet. I don't like Hina's voice. Did they change the VA? I don't remember her voice sounding so... forced. Her voice didn't match Hina's character, and it sounds like the VA forced herself to match Hina's cheerful, childish tone. I didn't really like Kite's voice either. It was adorable... but not what I was expecting. I expected Kite to sound more like a child (considering her development so far is equivalent to a young child), perhaps even a little tomboy-ish (she is Kite, after all)... But... Aahhh, I'm really just nit-picking now. |
| for people that are still confused remember back to what kite rolled with his Nen technique shortly before hes death and why it wasn't explained |
|
| So much emotion in this chapter that conclude Chimera Ant Arc next Election Arc who is kinda short and finally Ging returns |
| Such a heartwarming episode !!! OMFG KITE :D Ging has finally made his appearance The ant arc is now OVER !!! |
 |
mca said: The ants who abducted and killed thousands of people can now coexist with humans. Ironic. Keep in mind these were former humans reincarnated as Chimera Ants. |

| I can't have been the only one to shed some tears when Reina was re-united with her mother. That scene was just so goddamn intense :'( I wonder if there will be a change in the ED, considering the new arc won't last longer than 10 episodes (or so I've heard) |
jirico said: This episode was amazing, but... we need a new and epic opening. I have watched this season NGNL, Sidonia no Kishi, Black Bullet and all have nice openings, HxH is much better than these but the opening song sucks, time to change that!! They're not changing it. The opening is a reference to Smile Bomb from Yu Yu Hakusho. |

| I'm 100% sure the opening will change next week. This is the end of the ant arc, a new arc will start next week so we need new opening. I hope Hisoka is in this opening. XD |
| lol everyone is confused by the baby chimera calling herself as kite, well I was like what on earth xD, another damn great episode, another damn touching episode, so kurt (colt) is not going to join reina and his mom? and where is palm? killuas' eyes, damn scary .. the best anime so far, it wrapped nicely this episode : 5/5 this anime : 10/10 |
| I'm just glad to see Killua again. Seriously, I got so used to having him and Gon being our main pair that it's been tough not seeing much of them ESPECIALLY when the episodes involving them were the best in the arc. Hoping for more Killua-centric stuff. I've heard about what happens later but... I don't want him getting the Leorio/Kurapika treatment dang it! |

| Loved the calm atmosphere this episode. There was a noticeable lack of tension as well, which after the intensity that came before was a more than welcome change. I'm pleasantly surprised that Togashi took the time to give closure to characters as minor as Brovada and Reina. It brought the arc full circle and provided for some genuinely touching moments in the episodes first half. It's especially amazing how much I've come to like Welfin; he was just kind of 'meh' when he was first introduced but has really grown on me. So...Kite was reincarnated as an Ant? Not exactly sure how I feel about that, and I'm a bit confused as to how its possible, and more so, what's the point of this particular story development? I think I'll put my thoughts about this on hold until I see a bit more regarding this revelation, since it was kind of left hanging there. Killua's scene in the hospital stole the episode for me. It was great, almost completely flawless in its execution. I'm glad that Killua finally acknowledged how abusive his relationship with Gon had become. Throughout the series it was always Gon being the idiot and Killua being the voice of reason that looked after him. This was often played for laughs and was seen by both as perfectly fine. Gon even told Killua directly back in the Yorkshin arc that Killua's job was to correct Gon when he screwed up. Which he did, but this time Gon has crossed the line. Like many other habits and actions Gon had done before the Chimera Ant arc, this one took on a serious undertone and as we can now see, Gon's selfishness had dire consequences on himself and his relationship with Killua. It makes sense that Killua, whose entire life is built around his relationship with Gon, would be so pained by this. The two displayed such great companionship and teamwork in Greed Island, which makes its destruction in Chimera Ant that much more devastating. It's interesting to note, though, that Killua was already being abused by Gon somewhat by the time of the dodegball match in Greed Island. Killua agreed to holding the ball as Gon powered up to punch it, but Gon himself insisted that only Killua could do it, completely disregarding the severe burns that Killua suffered. This crucial flaw in their friendship has been hinted at for the whole series, and I'm excited that it's finally getting the full brunt of the narrative's focus. Bring it on, Togashi. That ending though...the Zodiacs seem like an eccentric bunch, looking forward to their character interactions. And Ging is finally here in the flesh. We've seen flashes of the kind of person he is over the course of the series, but I'm looking forward to a more thorough characterization. |

| Keep moving forward |

That was one awesome-as-hell way for MadHouse to have him enter the stage.Btw, I've got to say I'm pleased with how Madhouse rearranged the events. In the manga the Zodiacs were shown right after Meruem and Komugi's death, which imo was not optimal placement. Placing it at the end of this episode was much better, imo. Yeah, that was really cool. Though I have to admit I liked how he was just non-chalantly sitting at the table with the other Zodiacs in the manga. I had to do a double take there, lol.I was like "wait, what?" |

| Time to start the Election arc! Pariston's face is quite annoying in the anime too. Hahaha. |

| Wut. Was that Ging in the last scene? Yay, Hisoka in the preview. I hope we'll see the whole Phantom Troupe. Chimer Ant arc sucked. It was not bad until Meruem was born. It was so fucking boring since then. |
