5/5 for this arc. Couldn't have asked for a better adaptation of it. Madhouse ftw.

Bye Bisky!

LET'S GO CHIMERA ANT ARC. MY BODY IS FUCKING READY!

Oh great, the arc ended and it went straight into another cliffhanger.

Out of all the cards, Bisky took something so useless. I know that gem was the reason she went there, but damn, feels like a waste when she could've taken something like Breath of Archangel instead.
Well she is a Treasure hunter after all, what did you expect. She doesn't really need Breath of Archangel since she is so strong, and a lot of the other spell cards in the restricted slots don't really do much. I guess she could of done the same thing Gon did.
Yeah but you never know if she will ever need to use Breath of Archangel on someone else. Maybe someone she really cares about is gonna die and it would be the only way to save them. But now all she has is a stupid gem that she would end up regretting if such a situation ever came up.

Ahhhhhh, this episode. Perfectly done and they fixed the problems the manga had, namely the pacing. In the manga the end of Greed Island was way too fast for its own good!

AND THAT PREVIEW. They teased us so much in it.

Cards turn into objects again after 1 minute, and I don't think that angel can float around indefinitely till Biscuit finds someone who needs it.


Battera could have used it because he had a patient already.

A solid episode to end the GI arc. I haven't read the manga (a few spoilers here and there ;P) so I'm really looking forward to "an-arc-with-lots-of-action". On a related note, it would be great if they could bring back the Phantom Troupe; really want to see Chrollo and others in action again!

Wow, I can't believe we're here.
Watching this remake was nothing short of amazing. Seeing as it's been ages since I finished the old HXH, there was lots of stuff I hadn't remembered quite well, so I was happy.
Knowing Ging, I'm certain that that's not really him, and that it's just another of his attempts to troll.

Fuck, I laughed so hard when Gon screamed "NIGG!"

Gon x Bisquit CON-FUCKING-FIRMED.

It looks like Chimera Ant Arc will start by Gon beating the fuck out of Ging, and my insect phobia started going off the CHARTS at the preview.

Different theme, but I honestly enjoy Chimera Ant arc a tad bit more than Yorkshin arc. Both are still comparably good.

Could someone please tell me, how "dark" is the Chimera Ant Ac really? Is it at a similar level to something like Blood+, Gantz or is there more serious gore and violence? I.e. reasonably palatable graphic violence or is it borderline abhorrent? I just don't know what to expect and would rather not be underwhelmed if it's - you know - actually fine as opposed to completely full on, which is the impression I get from some people. Thanks


Dark as in gore and themes and atmosphere: there's a serious level of hopelessness, cruelty and insanity in the beginning of the arc...that freak out most of the readers at that time. The anime probably won't be able to capture that sense...because...well Togashi is just a master at this. I won't expect any director to come close to how he portrayed the cruelty.

Once the arc settled in (as in our Heroes regrouped and form a plan) it's gotten less dark. There's hope! There's training! Then toward the end it had another dark turn where our heroes had to deal with some horrible dark emotions. It's not a pleasant nor 'cool' arc at all. It's just...mostly disturbing and heartbreaking. Phantom Troupe arc is 'cool', while Chimera Ant is a 'nightmare'.

The next arc will be uber-long and will probably take a full year (possibly more, since they don't need to hurry the pace along to get past the retread stuff)

At the end of the episode, though nothing really was shown other than a shadow of the Ant Queen and the hat of the Nigg guy, his face wasn't shown. And part of the flashback that was supposed to be in the first episode with Gon being a little kid.

It its the arc with most gore and 'emotional darkness', things like selfishness and fear are explored to the max. I think it is the best arc so far, really like it.

Amazing! ^^

Great arc, I really liked it as it progressed (not so much initially).

I can't wait for next week's episode (have no clue about this 'Chimera-Ants' thing, as I've not read or watched the original).

5/5.

mangareader here, CA is a lot worse than yorknew. Yorknew is by far the best arc that was made in hunter x hunter. So it ain't really set in stone, some like it some don't.
