Akanezora said: Agreed - when it comes to battle sequences, and the creativity of nen, no one else I've read is as similar in that regard (or done done as well); a reason Jojo and HxH are in my top 3 favorite shonen.Wow, just wow. This episode made me feel like Togashi completely embodied Araki's style. You know, the rules for the fights; the thoughts of the enemies about their foe's power; the mind game ect. |

| Enjoyed it as always, even tho not too much happened in this ep. Anyways really liked that gungi game and Komugi seems like an adorable character :D ...tho that snot dripping from her nose kinda disturbs me XD But great news if the manga really continues this december, even tho I decided not to read it until the anime ends/goes to a longer hiatus. Can't wait for more. xP |
| Life left to go |
| i wonder what her true power is |
| Been waiting for this, Komugi destroying the King. Also, one of my favorite parts, Morel vs Cheetu in that space. I really love that Morel is so relaxed. Ahahaha. |

| Komugi's voice is really annoying, the anime is already making her unlikable to me. The voice actress is waaaayyy overacting and her really fake and exaggerate cutsey loli voice really make my ears bleed. also way too pandering to otaku. My impression of Komuji in the manga is that she should sound more natural and genuine, she should be an eccentric from a poor background (lacked grace) who geek out on her passion (should also talk faster, because she should be overtly exciting about her subject). Not overt cutsey and 'refined'. TOO fake. But I guess Japanese just love these fake sounding loli voice that no real life girl can honestly relate to. I'm very disappointed |

| Meleoron's invisible tears were really adorable! He has a lot more in common with Knuckle compared to Gon haha. Knuckle/Meleoron team ftw The pacing is just fine with me. I want as much Gungi as possible, and Komugi's play is essentially Komugi is supposed to be a humble character and a little simple minded about things other than gungi. She quite aggressively prostrates before the king/puts herself down in the manga too so I dont feel there was overacting. I think it's supposed to be an idiot voice, not a cutesy voice. What she sounds like is not cute, it's what she says that's sweet lol. |
| I like where this is going. Someone powerful like the king is facing defeat. I'm sure his character will get some good development thanks to Komugi. |

| Always remember that anime is a niche medium in Japan. Manga sells way better |

I'm very disappointed Now THAT is what I was fearful of. To me they all sound the same. -__-;;; This fake loli speaking isn't cute at all, it's too pretend, too acted. so predictable and so surface. I hated that they ruined the character in the anime like that. A more natural, unaware, unpretentious, geeky Komugi would come off way more 'cute' in a genuine way. Komugi has a lot of fun expression, yet the voice actress sound so retrain, trying so hard to maintain her voice as high pitch as she can, and the try too hard 'look how adoooorable I am" act...argh. but then Japan (esp anime) never celebrate natural acting in general anyway and the anime crowd tend to have a limited idea of what 'cute' is. I thought Killua's voice actress did a good job to come off sounding like a regular person, despite how emo his lines could come off, yet he didn't sound predictably 'anime'. |
| Yeah I'm not liking Komugis VA at all either, it's so unfitting. |
 |
| The thing about animated Komugi is that her snots moves, and rather realistically, everytime she breathe/talk. They never seems THAT gross when they lay still in the manga panel. |
| This episode was incredible. It had a certain something, between the slow pacing and the introduction of the Gungi master, which lead to a extremely interesting situation. Meruem's head must be boiling right now with the sudden realization that, apparently, he's not perfect. The selection is about to start and we know nothing about Killua. Togashi is a marvelous storyteller. |
 |
| Her voice is cute and all but very unfitting. I was expecting something more like Kuroko from the Railgun/Index series. How old is she again? I always assumed she was pretty old because others called her loli grandma |
 |
| That king getting mad, maybe excited too? This girl probably has some some power to her or something like nen. Can't wait to see where this goes. |

I always assumed she was pretty old because others called her loli grandma Not knowing how old she is, what makes you think her voice is "very unfitting"? It doesn't sit right with the voice -you- imagined reading the manga? I'm confused. She's at least 16-20 years old (or up). Even so, right now her voice sounded like a generic anime loli, which in no way sound like anybody would sound like in real life, there's nothing natural and genuine about her that make me feel anything but fake and annoying. She at most sounded like a 4 year old minus the natural and genuine infantile quality. |
| Madhouse, you're so fucking awesome.. HXH turns up to be my favorite show so far after one piece of course, everything is getting better and better, thank god that I didn't read the manga that far so I can enjoy the weekly episodes like that.. And yeah, Komugi is so moe. I also liked the foot-guy new ability (forget his name again) I was missing the ost which played when he activated his nen ability... I was like yeeeaah.. Tell me what you can do because I want to know..lol MCAL said: ValeBreck said: I don't really understand why they're going so slowly, not even 2 chapters animated with this episode... Hunter x Hunter manga confirmed (99% sure) to restart in December. That might have something to do with it. EDIT: Also this leaves nine chapters for the Day 6 part so an even three chapters per episode. That will be so awesome if what you says is right and I doubt it. |

I do not mind her voice personnally, could have been a lot worse. |

| i love it the first slow paced episode i actually liked. 4/5 |
| My biggest regret is using my real name as my user name. The continuous pursuit of finding that genuine thing. |
| So the king is a genius that learns everything in an amazing rate yet he is taking too long to manage to beat her in a game. So is she a genius he can't beat or maybe he needs more games? Also it's fan how she doesn't get afraid because she can't see him. SetsukoHara said: Saraph said: Holy fucking shit, looking at that girl fucking disgusts me. Why? She is so moe!

I do not mind her voice personnally, could have been a lot worse. This 'fantasy show is not real life' argument s just lazy and cheap. It's jarring when every other character sounds natural, believable and fitting for their characterization, then you have this fake unnatural loli sounding moe clone where you can't feel any genuine human behavior and emotions, I just can't find her 'believable' as a human character. That'd just would ruin a good portion of the story. |
| OMG Gungi master!!!!!!!! Epic!!! |
| Loved komugi character so much. . morel look so calm even though he is not in full strength to fight cheetu... |
SetsukoHara said: Saraph said: Holy fucking shit, looking at that girl fucking disgusts me. Why? She is so moe! If you ever saw someone leaking from their nose, you'd freak out. It's not moe. |
| The Cell Games have begun! |
| Pretty cool game between her and the King, I hope that's skill and not using some power when he speaks his move or something. , and I'm really interested in what Morel will do. 5/5. |
 |
Suitedup said: The Cell Games have begun! lol. |
 |
| "the other has no eyebrows".... damn I didn't notice that!! lol Shoot must've shaved them. well that kid was awesome but then I think the other players didn't win because they were afraid and fear makes one lose focus... |
 |
SetsukoHara said: Saraph said: Holy fucking shit, looking at that girl fucking disgusts me. Why? She is so moe! Lol, I experienced the same thing when first seeing Komugi's snot in the manga.. XD Maybe because I have developed an immunity so this time I am only seeing the cute part of her lol ... |

| Gon's side was amusing, especially the tears. Lol @ the girl's snot, accent and the stuttering. Hope to know more about her later. The "her aura changed when she gets serious about playing" adding up with Meruem's comment almost got me to cringe. Oh well episode was alright. Edit: How do you play the Gungi, from what was shown, it seems like you can stack with the opponent's piece. ~.~ |

| Great episode. Really wonder what the King will do. Also would like to see one of the Squadron leaders defeated. |
 |
| I like Komugi. She reminds me of Netero for some reason. Morel seems like he can handle Cheetu. I hope this doesn't throw things off too much, though. I wonder how Meleoron and Knuckle will get along. Meleo was tearing up himself. |
