| I always thought that it was obvious that Pariston had a big hand in the death of Netero. The invasion could have ended differently if Netero was able to use all hunters for the mission. For example he was forced to pay a huge price to get Zeno on board, that sugest that he knew that Morel and co were not strong enough but that he couldn't get other hunters. Ofcourse Netero regretted nothing and he had a good time fighting Meruem, the fight he was looking for but thats exactly what Pariston knew and used to get rid off him. The only thing that is missing is a motive, he clearly doesn't want to be the next chairman. |

Exactly what I am trying to say , seriously each time Pariston plans something he does it in a Xanatos Speed Chess Gambit style , in which he forms a plan in which he wins whatever the outcome is. That is what I could see him doing there , Especially including the words said in Episode 99 and also supporting them with what we have in the manga. I do not believe that Pariston was doing this out of mere troll. |

That was my question. Maybe my english isn't good so there's some miscommunication. But I see the way you look at the whole thing. |

| I got way too emotional in the episode and started crying when Nani ka started crying. :( Also Pariston...I can't figure that out. AND WHERE THE FUCK IS KURAPIKA ?! |
| I can see what will be in next two episodes. It is really unbelievable that HxH is ending. But still, it is ending just as I am about to go to college, so this is a really nice farewell gift. |

| And here I thought nothing could outbest the episode of Leorio, it just happened. Simply amazing episode. Ging and Gon's reunion was quite touching and I kinda revauled Ging. Also, Something's "I love You" and the conflict in-between Killua was the icing on the cake, I lost it there. |
 |
| I finally caught up to the series (started watching about 3+ weeks ago and haven't been able to stop) and just in time for the last two episodes to air. I'm so depressed that this series is coming to an end but there is just no manga material left. I'm glad to see that we finally got that classic Father and Son moment/reunion in this one or at least a completely warped HxH version of it. However, I'm still more of a fan of how the Zoldyck family hashes out their problems :) |
 |
| I laughed so much at the beginning of this episode but i got sad at the end :c . Only more 2 to go :CC |

| This was my favourite part in the manga. Seeing Gon bawling to his father, and then Ging being scolded by the crowd of hunters on his parenting is just so hilarious. And despite how many times she's been mentioned in this arc, this is first and only time people get to see both Alluka's and Nanika's real personalities. |
| The reunion between Ging and Gon was better than I expected, totally worth the wait. Didn't think Gon's first words to him would be all that crying about Kite lulz. Ging's reactions were priceless and he actually did act fatherly a little too. Beautiful. The scenes with Killua and Alluka were cute too. Nice conclusions on both ends. |

| Wow these last few episodes have been amazing. I found the first half to be hilarious while the 2nd half was both beautiful and very emotional. |
| Awesome episode MH. It's crazy to think that(even though I've already read this) in the first half of watching the episode, I was laughing. Then a little later after that, I was almost bawling(I literally did look away from the screen to hold back the tears) Damn feels T.T Killua, suki. And that talk between Pariston & Cheadle was what made me like Pariston a lot. Or even more. :) Next episode will be interesting, but honestly I have mixed feelings about it cause... That said, 2 episodes left. -_- |
| This was the episode when Gon met his father for the first time in his life and it felt so anticlimactic. Heck, the feels between Killua and Nanika saved this episode. |

| My favorite episode of this whole Election Arc so far. I loved the scene between Killua and Alluka/Nanika. Gon and Ging's encounter was also pretty cool. Pariston has really grown on me. After this and last episode, he has really cemented himself as an interesting character for me. Can't wait to see his role in the next arc whenever Togashi's back heals. I'm assuming a few months after Dragon Quest Heroes is out. Hey, just saying. I do wish him to get better soon in all seriousness |

 "For the sake of humankind, I forsake my humanity." - Cherry |
| Brilliant episode, the scene with Alluka and Killua really hit me in the feels. Surprising, considering how short the time we've known Alluka and Something was. Gon and Ging's reunion was suitably anticlimactic, as was everything else this episode. It was touching and revealed a lot about both; Ging was actually flustered and nervous about encountering his son after so long, and Gon was of course heartbroken over what had transpired and full of guilt, as he was before what he did to Pitou, ironically. I like that, as it shows that in the end murdering Pitou as brutally as he did didn't give him any closure, and in fact made everything worse. Gon went down the path of revenge, and it gave him nothing. I did like that Ging showed a more responsible side when he he gave some actual advice to Gon, like a father should. Of course, saying that Gon needed to be stronger isn't the best advice, as it was Gon's thirst for power and strength that set him on the path he eventually took. However, I like to think that Ging means to become stronger responsibly and for a greater purpose; not to have power, but to protect those you care about. Hopefully Gon heeds that. Pariston's abrupt resignation kept with the theme of anticlimactic endings this episode. All the preparation and complex mind games were for naught. Pariston showed actual vulnerability for the first time this episode, as we see that he was genuinely heartbroken over Netero's death. This was already foreshadowed in Ging and Cheadle's conversations a few episode ago, as Ging pointed out that Pariston was the only one truly carrying on Netero's will. This episode makes it clear, I think, that in the end Pariston was trying to have fun with the election as Netero was no longer there, and perhaps even try to make sure it went in the right direction. His threat to Cheadle seems genuine enough. He actually cares about what happens to the Association in Netero's absence, revealing a more sympathetic side to him, even if his reasoning isn't exactly sound. Tbh, I didn't care much that Killua healed Gon so 'easily.' Yes, I can see how people can dislike that since Alluka's overly complex rules and conditions were emphasized a lot throughout the arc, but then again so were the politics and strategies of the participants of the election, and in the end the winner just resigned and made Cheadle president, which means all her planning and complex mind games weren't really necessary. As Ging would say, though, it was a load of fun and great entertainment, so who cares? The theme of 'games' and 'fun' has been very prevalent this arc, in the form of Ging and Pariston, who ironically enough are enemies of sorts. I think it's fitting that the arc adapted such a tone, since it was done as a tribute of sorts to Netero, a man who thrived off of having a good time. Alluka and Killua's scene was moving. In the end, Killua was trying to do to something what his family did to him, and to Alluka as well: oppression for the sake of safety. Killua was so focused on saving his sibling from his family that he almost shunned Something forever, just like his family, showing how easy it is to slip into the same types of errors, regardless of who. Togashi was going for a message with Killua and Alluka's scenes, and his earlier emphasis on the conditions and rules was a misdirection, concealing what really mattered in the end: Killua's respect for Alluka as a human being, and the beauty of the relationship due to that. It was what made the scene where Killua commanded Something to hide away forever and them subsequently apologized after being scolded by Alluka so powerful. Something was just as human and vulnerable as Alluka. They were two separate beings who really weren't, two people who loved Killua. Killua almost forgot that and was about to shun one of them, and Alluka scolded him for it. Wishing to protect someone does not give you the excuse to abuse them. It provides the perfect contrast with the twisted relationship that Killua has with Illumi. What Killlua has with Alluka is the love and compassion that could never truly exist in its purest form with a person as sick as Illumi. Poignant stuff all around. |

| Didn't expect Pariston to resign so suddenly. Seems like he really did care for Netero. Who knew Nanika could be cute haha |
Antanaru said: You got that right. He's the weakest of the main characters in my opinion.Yup, this episode confirmed once again that Gon sucks as a main character. He barely qualifies for a sidekick. |
| Wow that was really sad. I was on the verge of crying during that scene when Something and Killua were hugging each other. :'( |
| that reunion between ging and gon was epic also it was nice seeing a different side of pariston |
 |
| lol Ging need to learn how to act as father. |
 |
| HOLY SHIT Pariston is the #1 troll of the year! And then Cheadle's wrath LOL Gon meeting Ging was awkward and disappointing.. |
~my list

| Lol, Ging kicked everyone's ass after getting yelled at by everyone. Whataguy. |
xAvengerx said: Stark700 said: Hunter x Feels Wow so much tears, that was almost to much for me. The Scene with Killua, Nanika and Alluka so beautiful. And when I saw Tsubone was also crying ;_ ; I think Pariston really liked Netero even if it was only to make fun with/on him. Omg 2 episodes left? Really? I can´t believe it :-( |
 |
| Definitely wasn't how i thought the reunion would go. Killua and Nanika's scene well and truly out shined the entire episode. |
kitten320 said: I really don't like this whole "Kite is a girl now" scenario... it is simply stupid and kills whole drama we had till now. Neither does it make any sense to me... Alluka yelling at Killu was probably the best part for me cause it shows how much she cares for Something despite all the troubles she went through because of her. And looks like Something is not evil, it's people negative influence that makes her that way. Why it makes no sense to you? There is the possibility the queen ate Kites brain (we only know that Pitou reassembled him). Then there is another possibility that Ging insinuates that Kite had a Nen ability that makes him reincarnate when he doesn't want to die, or sth along those lines. |

| Nanika changed from creepy to moe. ^_^ Qans said: Saraph said: I really hate that they call Alluka's other side "Something". It sounds incredibly dumb in my opinion. "Did you make Something cry?" What the fuck? Why couldn't they just name it somehow? :P Lol yeah they were extremely uncreative about its name The translators are more stupid for translating it and not even putting in in brackets. Nanika is her name. So they should have left it as Nanika and not write the word "Something". Names don't need translation. Japanese names usually mean something anyway but it would be stupid to translate the meaning. Sakura means "Cherry blossom" but you didn't see anyone writing sentences like "Hey, Cherry blossom when did you get here?" It's stupid. It's a name. You just write Sakura and the same should be done with Nanika. |

| I like the name Something. So no problem for me at all -.- |
