| Aaaaand it's a wrap. Well done. Now for Greed Island. Originally 22 episodes, so we might see Chimera as soon as episode 81. Which is a bit sooner than people were predicting about 30 episodes ago. Good. I hope they blitz through it, it's probably my least favorite arc, with all the sillyness. |
| Kinda wanted a longer cat scene haha. Paku such a great character. Phinks staring at Gon almost made me believe he's growing a heart in that empty chest cavity I really liked the approach MH took with Hisoka v Chrollo - wrung out all the melodrama, truncated the scene to a really short one... pretty appropriate for a showdown never to be. And using the random animation technique was so funny. |
| Does the manga is too much far from the actual arc ? |
 |
| lmfao at Hisoka's expression.. Even it was a bit rushed but still a nice one.. Btw do you guys think the narrator was kinda a bit spoiler? mentioning G.I straight ahead like that lol.. |

| Oh good now we head into the Greed Island Arc. I hope it is as good as the Yorknew City Arc. Wanna see Gon and Kiluia power up again. |

Hybridbloodszak said:  Reaction to being screwed over by Kurapika  RUH OH! My favorite two moments of this episode- the two awkward moments. They were so hilarious, I watched them again afterwards. Too bad about the fight, though, I was hoping to see some epic battle. Really great episode, Pakunoda was very brave. I still don't understand why they couldn't kill Killua and Gon, so if someone could tell me by leaving a message or comment, I would appreciate it. I am looking forward to what's next. I may bring the rating back up higher like it was initially. 5/5. |
 |
| The flow of the episode is really something Next stop: Greed island and I hope they will animate the next arc too |
| Wow 0 dislikes 0 hated not bad this cap no? hehe ! really good |
 |
| Great episode to end Yorkshin arc. I was sad for Pakunoda's death. 5/5 |

I couln't care less if Hunter x Hunter decided to keep Departure or switch every damn episode. As long as the show stays good then who cares about the OP song. (This goes to EVERYONE complainig about Departure not just you) |
- Signature Removed - The signature seriously lacked "It's a Sony" qualities. |
| Just for the record, we already have Departure 3, another one would be v.4 |

PirateKingz said: Marhuto said: QUESTION: To all who've watched the original series... is this going further than it? Great episode again. No, not yet anyway. The original series stopped after Greed Island. The 2011 version should pass it eventually and get to the Chimera arc and maybe even the Election arc. Oh.. OK. Thanks :) |
| HxH is one of the best... I'm glad to see that it is moving on! Does Hisoka join up with the boys? He might as well. I'm not into spoilers & I haven't read the manga... |
| Next week begins the Greed Island arc!! YES!!! It was my favorite OVA from the original running. Can't wait to see it again. |
 |
| That was too rushed. I didn't feel any emotion during the hostage situation unlike in the original version, there was nil connection between Gon & Pakunoda. It was quite a disappointing ending. But Pakunoda is as awesome as ever. |
| i really have some hatred for spider squad, but after this episode, i really found out sympathy for paku ^^; damn |

| So ends one of the greatest anime arcs ever. Greed Island is coming up which should be good. |
 |
| I was a little disappointed in how this arc ended. I was expecting half the members of the troupe to die. I wasn't sure how they were going to pull that off, which is why I was excited to see it. |
 |
| Ahhhh what a great ending to such an awesome arc, one of my favorites ever. Loved Hisoka's reaction too haha~ But I'm really, really, really going to miss "hunting for your dream" as the ending. Everything about was perfect ;________; Vanisher said: Same here. The only reason I haven't given this series a 10 [yet] is because I fear how GI will turn out (wouldn't say it was bad, just extremely dull. The animation didn't help either). Let the real test begin!I wonder if i would be able to stand greed island this time. I dropped it in the 99 version. |

SteinsGate said: Well.... This arc has to be one of the best made arcs in anime industry. Suspense, emotions, fighting, great music, well-thought plot, amazing animation. Farewell amazing arc, 9/10 for this arc and instanly to the hall of fame for anime arcs. May one of the next arcs be half as awesome as this arc. Greed Island is a step down, but still really entertaining. But wait for Chimera Ant arc, it's pure epicness, a turning point in HxH. If Madhouse does a job as good as they did in York Shin, it will be glorious. |
Hybridbloodszak said: Reaction to being screwed over by Kurapika This! I laughed so hard.. Almost choked on the water I was drinking that exact moment. And as others have pointed out, it was indeed two priceless reactions this episode. Loved it. |

It was still a decent end to the arc but it just felt anticlimactic after all of the fortunes and Kurapika's planning. |

It was still a decent end to the arc but it just felt anticlimactic after all of the fortunes and Kurapika's planning. I think part of the brilliance of the arc is that it simply doesn't do what you would think a shounen battle series would do. One would think that our protagonists would fight each of the Spiders in one on one combat and the villains would die {the fortune was actually pointing towards that), but FUCK THAT Togashi says, lets turn it into a game of cat and mouse. It's fucking brilliant imo and even better because of how likable the troupe members turned out to be, even though they were still portrayed as cold blooded killers. I look at the scene where Hisoka thinks he'll be able to fight Chrollo in a climatic battle only to be told by the boss that his powers were taken away, to be a sort of joke by Togashi. Loved it. |

| Haha.. Hisoka's face when he learned that Chrollo can't use Nen.. haha. But I kinda feel sad when Paku died.. weird. |
| Incredible. This arc was absolutely incredible. Lol @ Hisoka's face this episode and oh his replacement is Illumni right? Anyways, nice episode and looks like Greed Island arc is next. Damn, I hope it will be as good as this one. Ha this scene cracked me up as well. |

Damn, I hope it will be as good as this one. Ha this scene cracked me up as well. I feel like the next arc is comparable to the Heavens Arena Arc. Overall, it's enjoyable and fun, like Heavens Arena, and is really important to build the overall plot. But the story or objective is pretty straightforward. It's not a bad arc at all, but it definitely does not carry the same dark/tense tone as the Phantom Troupe/Yorknew arc did. It's also thematically different, as are all the arcs of Hunter x Hunter. |
| awesome episode, the spider is great |
 When I saw this I thought Hisoka was going to go bonkers and start making orgasm noises about how his ripe fruit was spoiled. Anyway, that was an awesome arc and fantastic conclusion. Although Kurapika didn't end up taking straight up revenge on Phantom Troupe, I feel like the conditions he put on Chrollo were fitting pay back. Unable to use nen or communicate with the other troupe members, he's isolated from his "family" and has been rendered powerless. In a sense, he has been chained down. It was also hilarious when Gon and Killua ran into Feitan and Phinks at the auction, their answer put the question of them pursuing Kurapika to rest. With that out of the way, it was totally worth marathoning and I can't wait to see how Greed Island will turn out. |
