Ah Ging you and your decisions..not that I'm surprised.

At the same time, Pariston is acknowledged for his ability... We get some flashbacks again with Gon and Kite again as well. Ah Killua, I hope you will succeed in healing him. So much tension in the hall. I found Leorio's reasoning for becoming Chairman to be kinda amusing though.

I love how Pariston is just playing with the election. I hope Killua will attempt at healing Gon the next episode, so we can see him again.

Man, Hunter x Hunter will certainly leave a huge void once it's over, that I just can't see being filled by any other anime in the near future.
Another very nice episode, I'd say. Certainly love how they focus on the remaining participants, seeing how three of them (minus Cheadle) are genuinely interesting folks.

It looks like Gon is about to be healed next episode. I'm curious how the anime is going to tie all the loose ends of the arc together. Loved this episode. Words will not be able describe how much I will miss this show.

It was nice to finally see my favorite Leorio moment animated! In general a decent episode, though it's too bad they did cut out Ikshonpay's final comment, which definitely made me chuckle when I read the manga.

"And I lack all three! Hey, you were supposed to laugh."

I actually did laugh to that.

Leorio's speech was just out there. Amazing.
Can't wait to see the outcome of the election.
Also can't wait for Gon to be healed.

Looking forward for next week's episode.

Pariston is awesome. He is playing with that election like he s playing with little toys. Only Ging can really see through the bullshit.

Next episode will be intense, can't wait to see it.

Yeah basically LeOreo is confirmed to be next chairman, Ging x Pariston romance also confirmed and god do I need the next episode. This HxH addiction is as bad as being a coke addict, wouldn't mind the next episode right about now... But nonetheless I sort of want to find out whether Killua will manage to get Gon back T_T)

Well, it's a toss-up between Leorio and Pariston now, and I could honestly see either of them coming out on top. I find it interesting that Ging claims Pariston is the only one left in the election who carries on Netero's will. At that, I find it ironic that, while all of the Zodiacs (save Pariston) cared for Netero, they all hate Ging and Pariston, who are supposedly the most like Netero.

In any case, I'm guessing those leftover Chimera Ant eggs will be the basis of the Dark Continent arc I've been hearing about. If that's correct, I'm guessing that Pariston has a slight edge over Leorio to win the election for Chairman.

Decent episode. Hopefully we'll see Gon back to normal next week.

Only Togashi could make an election into a psychological and strategic battle of wits. And that's what we love about him.

From a non-manga reader stand point:
The election depends what Leorio says next. The voting seems to be highly volatile based on his actions as the independents don't seem to really take the election all too seriously if a minute long pep is able to sway them all over.

Whoever chose the Soundtracks for today's episode is stupid.
This arc is the second worst adapted arc in hunter x hunter with the first being the hunter exam.
Given the right situation , the right story , anyone can be shaped into Snake.

Just finished watching the original Greed Island OVAs so when the first thing I see this episode is Ging I was like "MAAAAAAAAN."

Leorio and Pariston were definitely the stars this episode. "Uh, forget the part about jerking off" that was gold. The way Pariston is toying with the election and just throwing everyone off balance is a riot. I almost spit water everywhere when he nominated Mizai and said "Cheadle lacks combat, Leorio lacks experience, I lack all three!"

I'm surprised Killua and Alluka are at the hospital now. I wonder if Gon will wake up before the election is over. Also saw Melody there which makes me want to see Kurapika already argh! Bisky's looking stylish as always.

I think Leorio is a bit too hot-headed to be Chairman.
I can't believe there's only 4 episodes left. I was sure this was going to be long-running like Naruto and One Piece.

The manga doesn't have enough content yet to carry on the series. It'll be back some day... provided togashi doesn't decide to go on a decade long holiday.

This episode brought a tsunami of tears over my face when Leorio gave that speech...

It was nostalgic because last fall my father went for surgery at Western's University Hospital in London, Ontario. Everyone had thought the surgery went fine, until he started to bleed out in the middle of his first night staying in the hospital.

Suffice it to say, after 5 blood transfusions and half a year of healing, he's basically back to normal now. But what hit me was seeing him so close to death, during my first year at university.

What Leorio said is exactly how I felt those 3 weeks of him being hospitalized. I wanted to be there more than anything, yet there was nothing I could do except visit him after my classes.

This makes it all the more painful to see the anime end at episode 148. I couldn't name any other series that has made me feel the electricity of life.

He's essentially fully recovered, however he stills sees a specialist once a year to get a test done on his kidneys, and the area that bled out to make sure it's functioning correctly.

Thanks for your concern <3, although it was a difficult time (for weeks he was as pale as Killua lol), kudos to HxH for breaking an anime barrier and effecting my emotions like that. It really caught me off guard.
