Well, I said that I did enjoy the fight between Hisoka and Gotoh and the result of the fight was pretty obvious to be predicted, yet I feel bad for Gotoh, he was introduced in the very beginning of the anime and he died for no reason in such a place like that. that's somehow sounds lame to me. What did he die for ?


the butler never was a relevant character, same thing as the archer kid an the bug lady that died in chimera ant arc, they got a few eps an then got killed like trash, you should have gotten used to this after the previous arc

Dying doesn't make them irrelevant regardless of when it happens or how much/little they glorify the death.

Great episode. Hisoka doesn't seem extremely strong, he is just always one step ahead.

Because you cropped out/ignored the subordinate parts of my sentence.


So let me generalize: How was he irrelevant?

I guess Illumi is the main villain of the arc. Too bad Hisoka is just his pet.


Even if you can't see them you can actually hear the brakes being used on the curved parts.

Edit: actually the rumor is for when the motorbike accelerate but then it should be a conseguence of it being slower a moment before.

This is the same guy that thought Kite was irrelevant. I don't think you'll get anything out of him.


im pretty sure all i did back then was question wether Kite was strong enough to measure how dangerous the chimera ants were (an ultimately only 4 chimera ants can be considered a threat), i also remember saying that i thought he had some good tracking skills but nothing particularly impressive when it comes to combat... never mentioned anything about how relevant he was, an to be honest i wouldnt compare how important Kite was to the story with the butler guy

I would say Hisoka is stronger than he lets on. Especially if he has already fought with Chrollo and survived (This is obviously still unconfirmed as to what is going on with Chrollo. I wish we could get some info about him soon).

It's been stated that Hisoka hasn't shown even close to his full power, Hisoka wanted to fight Netero and wants to fight Ging and he isn't suicidal. I doubt Bungee Gum is the only power he has.

wat. i never thought that hisoka would lose, but i was still shocked that gotoh just died like that. i grew to like him after his little spiel about deception to gon during the killua arc and he was still just as likable when he came back for this arc.

but i guess after reading previous comments about that archer kids, this isn't something that i should be too shocked by. still sad though.

and it turns out that amane isn't just a stick in the mud. her "real" personality turned out to be pretty fun~

Hisoka needs to stop posting spoiler, I'm sure there will be more "95-100" enemies he can fight there, right now he's just screwing around bored with no real challenges, I can relate.

We don't know if Ging is an enchancer or not.

Plus Hisoka seems good at rating opponents, So he probably rated Netero like 150 lol. Nd he still wanted to take him on, Hisoka is definitely holding out on some serious power.

Seeing Illumi's bloodlust and Hisoka fighting really revved me up for HxH ever since I caught up to current. It looks like they're on an entirely different level (probably from honing their abilities during the Chimera Ant arc).

Hisoka's confidence made shivers shoot down my spine!!

R.I.P Gotoh. Of course Togashi killed off the most likable butler...on the other hand it does succeed in establishing Hisoka as a threat again, which hasn't really been the case since Yorkshin, or Heaven's Arena for that matter.

Great episode overall, but it's the kind that's mostly self-explanatory. Lots of psychological mind games, as usual, and a fantastic build-up of suspense for what happens next. I did particularly enjoy seeing a different side to Amane and Killua's conversation with Morel, where we see the full extent of how much Killua loves Alluka and the level of hatred he holds for Illumi, something the latter is almost completely oblivious to. Also, the way Togashi effectively tied the Election arc into Killua's arc was brilliant, a really clever way of turning what had been two mostly unrelated stories into one.

Rip Gotoh I always liked him but he didn't stand a chance against Hisoka. Loved the scene when Hisoka delivered the finishing blow. As for Serin group plans, don't know if they brave or just plain stupid for going after Illumi. Probably stupid though...

Damn I can't believe how much I missed this show.
