Ahahahah I laughed so hard when they mentioned Ging in that list ahahahahah
Hisoka someday will be fucked because of his play, I also don't think he's able to deal with the strongest Star Hunters. Also Illumi doesn't seem to be much stronger than Hisoka, they seem to have the same strength.
Gotoh is going to... Well, it's against Hisoka so I guess everyone knows what will happen with him even without reading the manga =)

Good episode.


Maybe Hisoka will give us a hint to how strong he really is vs Gotoh :)
But I doubt he will even have to try lol

I love it in general when Hisoka is in an episode, but Killua/Alluka interactions made it so much better :'D They are so adorable TT I love this caring side of Killua. He's from a family of assassin but has this wonderful soft side... ♥

He is wearing heels since the beginning of the arc.

He was wearing heels when he fought Gon. Hisoka is too fabulous to care about social rules.

I can't believe I'm saying this but the manga version > MH version, also 1,5 chapter for an episode doesn't work for me.The pacing is too slow for my liking, shame because this will be my last HxH I will see for a while and I was really looking forward to this episode.

3/5

Also its nice that Togashi balances out Hisoka, Chrollo and Illumi power levels. Fanboys used to say that Hisoka > Illumi didn't try to kill Gon after Hisoka told him not to. 300 chapters the vice versa happens and Hisoka is the one to back down. The truth is that a fight between those 3 can go either way.


I think you're right that we're unaware of the true power of these three characters. As far as we know, they might all be near each other in power. The truth could be that one of the three could be a lot more powerful than the rest; I guess we'll find out as the story keeps progressing.

I do find your analogy a bit flawed. Illumi was seriously considering killing Gon due to his potential; Hisoka basically told him to back down or he'd kill him, and Illumi took it seriously. This time around Hisoka was trolling Illumi solely for the purpose of alerting Killua; his face said it all (not to mention he's acknowledged Killua's potential as well if memory serves me right).

Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details.


You're a real dick do you know that? You didn't have to write that at all. You didn't even have descent comment on the episode. Just threw out a spoiler like it was nothing.

That has been blocked for awhile now. Surely you didn't click the spoiler?

I think the mod edit should have made it clear that it was indeed a spoiler.

I wonder if Alluka knows she's being treated as an object/not part of the family. Oh well, I think Killua's love is more than enough for her. Just look at that Alluka face. Kawaii ne.. :3

And Illumi asking Hisoka if he did provoke him on purpose and Hisoka replying, "masa ka" was priceless lol. Also, I laughed real hard when I saw Leorio on the 3rd spot and Ging on 16th. I mean, that's just...lol.

So then, next week's gonna be Gotoh vs. Hisoka. Damn, I admit I'm worried about Gotoh. If Hisoka's serious about killing him, then he might really die. Gotoh, you have to fight for your life. T_T

Crap! It really sucks to wait every week! Maybe I'll let this arc end before watching them all. After 142, maybe? Argh, this is so hard.
Episodes like this makes it even harder to watch other anime shows too. -_-

No, he actually is a Single Star Hunter right now. You are right that they mentioned he may become a Triple Star Hunter after the Ant incident, though.

Other notes with the list:

Pariston Hill's name is an obvious pun.
Cheadle is referred to as a female. I saw someone say she was a guy.
Leorio is the only rookie in the top 16.
Ickshonpe lives in the "digital world". This could be a potential future setting.
Bisky is a Double Star Hunter, which actually places her above Morel at this point.
Sanbica Norton... is a Star Virus Hunter. Wow. >.>;
Loupe Highland is the only non-rookie, starless Hunter in the ranking.
Ging is only a Double Star Hunter. I didn't realize this before.

You are way off on this one. You seem to have forgotten how strong Youpi was, the royal guard who seems to be the weakest among 3 according to you (it could easily be the opposite). The guy had the ability kill Morel, Knuckle, Shoot in one solid punch if they weren't playing the distraction game on him. All three guys who can hold their own or even kill some Troupe members. He also was the most durable of Royal Guards, zero damage after engaging in a battle against 4 (Killua included).

I like how tsubone is actually following killua altho hes using godspeed, just makes me wonder how strong is she


Hmm, this bugged me quite a bit. Youpi couldn't even see Killua when he was using gods speed. Tsubone can keep up with him. I guess Youpi was just incredibly slow? If so, could he really defeat the bad asses of the Troupe?

I was guessing that Speed of Lighting isn't as fast as Whirlwind. Whirlwind acts on Killua's instinct so naturally it would be faster.

Well I don't think Youpi was able to follow his movements even after getting hit a few times. Tsubone just knew that he can move fast without never actually seeing the ability before, and she was able to react to it/follow him.

Yeah, that she knew about it was important. She can keep her distance and just predict the most possible Killua's run away route so she doesn't lose too much distance when Killua run, she experienced after all.

Killua bonding with Alluka, so freakin cute, i can't take this.

Tsubone can keep up with God Speed? Wow, those Butlers really are something!

The interactions between Illumi and Hisoka are sooooo interesting,i just love these 2

HOWEVER:

If you know something can move fast (speed of lightning, perhaps) that does NOT mean you should be able to keep up with it automatically.
It bothered me that Tsubone could keep up with Killua after what Killua did to Youpi.

I do not like this Tsubone character at the moment.

I also did not appreciate the long car crash, however, I understand it's importance in the plot. I get it.

But overall, just awesome feels with illumi, hisoka, killua/alluka. Really good episode.

If you didn't read the manga, the only thing i can say now is maybe that's her speciality(chasing and stalking), that's why she assigned for this kind of job. Next episode probably will make you understand.

Tsubone wasn't really keeping up with him, she was either fallowing his nen or seeing glimpses of his lightning to keep tracking, plus she probably already knows where he is going. Tsubone has to be faster than the other butlers though, but Killua was still blowing her away, and when he sensed her she was probably really far away.

Actually...

Tsubone's Nen ability is called Rider's High. It is stated to be a form of Materialisation Nen and it allows her body to materialize into various vehicles. This vehicle form then uses the aura of her rider/s as propellent, meaning she can't use this ability without a rider. Furthermore, when the number of riders increase, so does the speed of the vehicle. This far, Tsubone has only revealed two forms of this ability. The first is a motorcycle form that can run at incredible speed capable of overtaking Killua's "Kanmuru", the second form is a glider that's capable of flying over the sky clouds.


Taken from the Wikipedia itself. It's actually capable of overtaking Killua, but I imagine that it would take a while.

Oh come on that's like an easy one. Tsubone says she knew about the ability beforehand so she made preparations. Meaning she probably used some sort of a nen ability, I mean didn't anyone notice or find strange that she covers one eye to look with another? I don't read the manga but that's just like a logical conclusion....

The car crash was mostly just filler extension.
In the source material, it was just one quick, brutal BAM - now they're right off that mountain.

Though, anything to highlight the fact that Canary is a badass, I suppose.
