----------------------------------------
Ah we get some Welfin this episode. A decent built-up episode nonetheless.

Poor Youpi...I actually liked that guy quite a bit in this arc. RIP. But anyways, I'm anticipating next week or rather when the King finds out the truth. He already got another hint this episode with a Shogi piece. Kinda interesting how they pulled off that cliffhanger. Oh Pouf, I don't feel sorry for you at all.

I lost this episode, like, I fell asleep one hour ago and woke up only at the end of the episode. Thanks Obama.
Welp, did they animate THIS? (It's not a spoiler, so you anime only-watchers can open it too)

Did they show the missing Gyro scene from chapters 203/204?
Unless they do eventually, people are going to be convinced that Meruem is Gyro.
And Bisky is Gon's mother.

I'm trying to remember right now but I don't think so. Ikalgo talked about his past though when they were comrades.

It did animate that chapter even to the final part but I don't think the scene was shown.

Didn't expect Youpi to die. May he rest in peace. Looks like Meruem found one of those game pieces. Pouf coughing up blood at the end. I think he's gonna die soon.

Pouf coughing blood (hell yes), Youpi nose-bleeding, Palm saying that Meruem will die soon...so all of them got ''infected'' by something i guess.That rose bomb side effects? can't think of anyone else, seriously.It would also explain when Palm was talking about how much worse we are than CA...but then again, how would she know o_O can't wait to see next episode.As always.

So 2 episodes left huh...

Damn, the Royal Guard is getting killed one by one! What a crazy turn of events. And pouf is next, I was really surprised when Welfin took down Youpi, badass. Now I wonder how they will kill the king, he is basically indestructible against even the most powerful nen and physical attacks, plus he's fused with Pouf and Youpi.

It's probably radiation or something like that from the rose bomb, since palm alluded to it.

I'm just curious why only the royal guard is affected by it so far, only the king was at the site of the explosion.

edit: or since gyro is being brought up heavily, perhaps he had something to do with the effects on the royal guard.

Another amazing ep :D

I don't remember liking Palm this much in the manga but the anime is making me love her <3

Ikalgo was BA convincing Welfin by his Gyro talk. Still waiting for the Gyro story to be continued in the manga <_<
And nice going Welfin being courageous enough to challenge Youpi.

Damn Youpi's corpse looked like a messed up squashed insect :O And Pouf's reaction was awesome :D

Pouf's reaction to Meruem playing Gungi on the floor was priceless XD So screwed XD

And I can't help but LMAO when Pouf is begging for Pitou to arrive XD HE HAS NO IDEA XDXDXD

Let the count down to their deaths begin ^^ Loved how Palm was talking about how cruel they are being. Really hits in the feelz.

The guards were basically swimming in the radiation once they were looking for the king.

edit: They actually omitted a couple parts of gyro in the anime and i'm hoping they flesh it out in the later episodes. You could go the chapters 203-204 and see why he's such a badass if you want.

yeah I love this aspect of the chimera ant arc. Ultimately, their "animal" instincts were only really about survival, but what made them so dangerous and destructive was their human side. But they were no match in the end for actual humans when it comes to destroying things that affect their livelihood.

Unfortunately, no, and I'm really disappointed that they didn't, but hopefully like the Rose's backstory, they'll show it at the beginning of next weeks' episode which means I'll love it even more due to anticipation.

OT: Well despite what I said above, I still loved the episode, we're reaching the conclusion of the arc now, prepare your tissues ladies and gentlemen.

RIP Youpi, I shall miss you.

Although I'm a bit concerned, we still have 7 chapters to adapt and only two episodes left of the arc, which means it should adapt 3 and a half chapters for each episode, but I don't want to rush the ending, I hope it plays out perfectly

When a nuke explodes, the radiation doesn't disappear right away. Same thing with the Rose.

So main antagonists of this arc die from radiation. That's an interesting turn of events. I guess 'ants' are easily affected by it.

Amazing episode as usual. It looks like the guards are going down 1 by 1, and then it's the king's turn. There seems to be a lot of hope on Gon's side by now.

Errr guys are you sure it's radiation? What if King and Royal Guards are connected in the way that if one dies, the other weaken.. ? So, since Youpi died, a part of King died as well..

Ok maybe it's just as you suggested but i am just thinking of other reasons..

Well they definitely aren't ending it in the next two episodes at the pace they are going. At this rate looks like Episode 136.

Anyway, you got to love how Togashi turns shounen cliches on their head. This time its the "Enemy surviving an attack that should have killed them" cliche, by making the bomb kill them after all.

hurrhurrhurr
They didn't. Gyro's scene happened way back when Gon and Killua were still fighting Knuckle and Shoot. Gyro also had a small (2 panels) monologue about what he was going to do. I don't think Madhouse is ever going to animate it.

I'm surprised that Madhouse chose Palm to be the one who talks about the cruelty of humans.


Another awesome episode, but Palm and Ikalgo's convo had weird pacing. I think they were trying to make it really intense, so that viewers knew the impact of what they were foreshadowing... but it kinda failed (some pauses were just too long, imo).

honestly, it's the most likely, and it really fits in with the theme of the destructiveness of humanity. What could be a better way to end this arc than to avoid the usual shounen 'final battle' by ending the lives of the ants in such a underwhelming and depressing way? It's signature togashi.

youpi dies from radiation, welfin leaves, then once the king questions him he could tell him the truth, maybe even about komugi, but we'll see about that
