By the way, Pitou was just exaggerating. Gon is still no match for Meruem.
His fangs probably could have reached Netero's throat

But she said he had reached the king level. Do you have proof otherwise ?


Pitou didn't see the new king with his new power


I know he can't reach the new king. But I am talking about the old king.

And TonyTonystark i know that his arm was cut off but it was a cheap shot. maybe if his aura was protecting him he would have resisted her (and potentialy resist the nuclear bomb like meruem). He beat pitou rather easily who is only weaker than netero and meruem. I don't see why he hasn't reach the king.

Amazing episode. Wing told gon to not follow Kurapika ( vows and limitations.) http://i2.mangareader.net/hunter-x-hunter/123/hunter-x-hunter-325571.jpg

But he did it anyway and in his limitation was even stronger.
It was so sad Gon sacrified everything to win only one fight :(

The killua/Pito/Gon scene was amazing. So much violence. Poor Pito Rip.
She was even stronger death exactly like Phinks said about what might happen with Kurapika

Earlier in the series, it was explained that sometimes Nen remains even after a user's death, although this is probably the first time we see it first hand.

Nen can exist and get stronger after death, so by activating Terpsichora before dying, it reanimated Pitou's corpse to "finish the job", instead of just disappearing.

True, but this is how Yorknew resolved. The troupe feared that Kurapika would act much like Pitou did and his nen would attack the defenseless Chrollo in someway.
Kurapika's emotion is vengeance and pitou's was love for the king though.

Intersting: 1999 ova had filler about Uvo and Paku haunting Kurapika :)

Just saw the cruncyroll stream and man was that a great episode.

The animation, the music, the directing. Everything top notch.

Gon's adult form was rather scary, looking like a character straight out of Jojo's, the episode man sure to remind you that what Gon was doing was not a good thing. This wasn't a glorious transformation to beat the villain. In fact Pitou actually attempts to give Gon a fair fight. She waits for Gon to be ready and apologizes before taking a stance. Again paralleling with what Youpi said a couple of episodes ago and honoring her opponent.

In a typical Gon fashion he kind of cheats. It's totally a Gon thing to do. Hanzo kicks the crap out of him, Gon decides to just not give up forcing Hanzo to give to avoid killing.Loses an arm and his throat to land one hit on Genthru. Gon feels guilty about Kite and vows to kill Pitou, he doesn't care and just sacrifices everything to do it.

As for Gon being stronger than the King, I agree I think he did reach his level. Gon had extraordinary potential, something even Pitou said. This was all of his potential and future progress released at once. It's the result of decades of endless training. Not to mention Gon's other abilities which are probably just as based.

This was really over hyped, I mean the fight if you can call it that slaughter seems more
appropriate, received several episodes of buildup and people hyping it up like it was going to be a freaking epic masterpiece, but it just felt so short and underwhelming especially coming off Netero vs Meruem. Pitou was stated to be stronger than Netero, but she was almost completely curb stomped by Gon. The royal guard before this were outclassing hunters way more experienced than Gon and then he suddenly turns super saiyan and easily dispatches one like it was nothing it felt like an ass pull.

Hehe yeah I can understand Solomons view on it since it was alot more controversial in the manga version since we had alot of hiatus to build the hype up even more for years. Even though it does follow the HXH nen rules established previously it does still feel slightly "ass-pully" but ehh I feel it was justified since we knew Gon was extremely irrational since the first arc so making an incredibly ridiculous vow and limitation fits his ally.

It's not an asspull since it's was establish a long time ago with the rule of nen. It isn't ridiculous that if he sacrifices everything in the vow then he gains everything (I don't know if you understand what I mean by that).

I am crying now, only when the ED credit started to roll. It was painful to watch. I think I didn't blink my eyes for most of the time during this episode, I was so scared to miss anything. Glad Killua mentionned Bisky, because I also thought about her.

The OST was amazing, loved how the use of chant (sound like something I would hear in a buddhist temple).

And really, Megumi Han is AMAZING!

It is called vows and Limitations like Kurapika. He sacrified everything his potential/ his nen/ his future to win this one fight. He don't care if it is over after this one fight. He gain temporary all his potential.

Nah I knew what you meant and I completely understood that it followed the rules established in the manga. (I did it write it in my previous post to solomon)I was just sharing my sentiments with solomon that even though it is following the rules established it does feel like gon slightly "cheated" but I counteract my point by mentioming only a character irrational as Gon would create such a ridiculous creed and limitation.

Why some people dont understand the Nen:

Vows & Limitations
Self imposed restriction, Vows and Limitations.
Being a product of the mind, Nen responds to the goals, strengths, and desires of individual users. As a result, a student of Nen can increase the overall power of an individual skill by stating a self-imposed restriction that forces even more conditions on it.
Example: Kurapika vs Ubo
Gintama: "The blade is not to cut down your enemies
Nor is it to cut away your own weakness
A sword isnt meant to protect your body
A sword is meant for protecting your soul"

Damn this was a great episode from the action, gore, and music alone. Those feels. Had to give it a 5 even tho I still feel conflicted about this fight and how this whole arc ends. Everything felt so anticlimatic and the hype just kind of dies for me. Gon's powered up form looked just as goofy as it did in the manga. From the ridiculously long hair to the crop top. Lmao.

You can put a vow on your nen.The strongest is your vow, the more power you will gain. Kurapika made a vow to gain a new power. This vow is very strong because if he breaks this vows he dies.
This time gon vowed to sacrifice everything : "I don't care anymore so I will use everything". He sacrificed many decade of his life and the ability to use nen to reach his maximum potential ( that's how gon would be if he was at his peak).
