| Wow, great episode! Made me really excited for the auction with all these different scenarios playing out :D |
| I'm happy with all the troupes voices expect for Shalnark way to high pitch, also got to love how they added a Puu keychain to Neon's phone. |
| Great build up episode. This Kurapika blood lust arc is gonna be EPIC. The great thing about HxH is even when theres no action every episode is still entertaining. |

Normally I'm okay with Hidaka; but yeah, I agree on this one. I hoped that Shalnark would have a nerdy male voice, something like Sakaguchi or Kakihara, but oh well. And who doesn't love Puu? ^_^ Anyways, back to the VAs. I was expecting much from Kappei since I didn't like the '99 voice. I'm not that impressed for now... BTW I definitely love Uvo's VA. Perfect villain voice ;) |
| The big brown fox jumps over the lazy dog |
| The Phantom Troupe is here. Does anyone saw Puu's strap on that loli boss? Another Yu Yu Hakusho cameo. |

| Where can I find those "Hunter Card Reader" devices? :) It is good that they easily found one of them in an ordinary local internet café.  I think, hunters should carry a "HunterCard-to-USB" adapter with them. They may not find those devices everywhere. LOL! :D |

Anyone notice Rider from Fate/zero in this episode? |
 |
| I knew I had seen Neon's keychain somewhere, wonder if that's a sign of things to come. Yu Yu Hakusho remake would be awesome. They probably would have if the manga wasnt already over but a man can dream lol.. |
| Ahahahaha maybe I was just too happy to see him, but I didn't find anything wrong with Shalnark's voice. He sounded suitably cheerful... I guess it depends if it gets toned down later on. Sometimes he just needs to sound composed. Uvo was perfect though omg. Neon's so cute here it's unreal. I have to keep reminding myself that this girl collects body parts. Going inside the Hunter website was a good way to keep the animation interesting while they found out about Greed Island... even if the light coming from the screen prompted a "what". It probably makes sense as well. Even if a license was stolen it wouldn't get you on the site unless you knew Nen, which is mostly reserved to Hunters. So excited for the rest of this arc aaaaahhhh... |
| so it begins cannot wait for the upcoming battles!!! |
| That was good ep , but Shalnark's voice pissed me.Uvogin again lika a boss.Can't wait for the epicness. |
 |
 Same voice as  This made my day. |

| One Word. Disappointment. The phantom troupe voices... just... just.. they ruined them ;-; and i had big expectations for this arc. >_> but good episode. |
Your life is just little part of this world... |
| Miyano Mamoru voicing Chrollo o_O Oh and Uvogin's new VA totally suits him. |
| Hearing the Troupe's voices was great, everyone but Shalnark's voice is fine but I'll get used to it. Wished they used a male with a higher voice for him like Daisuke Namikawa's voice in Level E when he's being sarcastic. |
| It was so dope to finally be able to see the Phantom Troupe in this episode! Their voices sounded great to me, and the OST used during their meeting was perfect! Can't wait for the Kurapika vs. Uvogin fight! |

| I was waiting for this ep to come to hear Genei Ryodan's VA and wasn't disappointed with them. Uvo's voice sounds the best so far, and although I was a bit sceptical to Miyano Mamoru voicing Chrollo (It's not that I don't like him, he's a great seiyuu but I was afraid if his voice would suit the character) but so far so good. Maybe without any fireworks for now (except Uvo maybe) but the stage is set for my favorite arc. I got chills listetning to the part when they all assembled and *BAM* and of episode. Waiting for the next one will be a tough job. |
  |
| They did a great job this ep! Shalnark's voice was eh, guess I need to get used to it. Loving how Machi and Nyon look though. So much nostalgia and chills, can't wait for things to heat up! |
| I have high expectations for this arc. I loved Uvo's voice the best, and I'm actually psyched at the fact that Miyano Mamoru is voicing Chrollo. |
| Pretty good episode~ Good to know hisoka is still looking pedo as usual~ That guy with the open coat (Lucifer?) Creeps me the fuck out. Dx on a side note, i noticed someting in one of the shots, with Neon's phone. I swear to god i've seen that...penguin thing somewhere before. :/ |

|
| With all the build-up finished, it's time for things to start moving. Yay~ |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
 Feitan and Shalnark (seems like a clone of sorts of Kurapika design?) are my favorite of the Phantom Troupe. Though Feitan could have had a better voice, I think. The rest of the troupe are alright. The leader, Lucifer, has a great personality, though if he even excites Hisoka, I cant even begin to imagine just how powerful he is. The nen sticking lady is probably the better of the female members. I hope no more threads open up in the plot it seems like a lot is about to happen with the plots, Kurapika's and Phantom Troupe, Phantom Troupe and auction, Diviner girl, Neon, and Auction, and Gon Killua and Greed Island and Auction. If people have to clash I guess Phantom Troupe will be devastated by Killua, though maybe Kurapika will also be successful in his endeavor. Hunterpedia had a great moment, of course Killua is better at attacking Gon. |

| Finally the Real Shit has begun :) ROFL at Hisoka's Face Turning up on Chrollo Uvo Voice was a Beast Feitan Faaaaaaaaaaar Better than 99 Damn Chrollo is just Kira waiting for more lines of him :D :D |
| Pretty good episode. Can't wait for this arc to pick up. I was surprised to hear Light Yagami's voice [aka Mamoru Miyano ] as Chrollo |
| We've been getting YYH references for the past 4 weeks, 1 more to go :P Feitan's voice is epic...can't wait for that moment xD Everyone sounds great, except for shalnark who sounds off even when taking his personality into account |

| Loved Hisoka's look when he saw Chrollo. Shalnark's voice resonated with me in a strange way. It's one of the strangest voices I've heard. Not dissapointed though, liked all the voices. Chrollo's was serene and almost hypnotizing. The epic music after he said "I give you permission to kill them," "Kill whoever interferes." was beast. Uvo's voice was perfect and Nobunaga's voice was great as well. Feitan sounds better, in my opinion. He's more laxed and monotone. I believe most of the voices were better (except maybe Shalnark's but I still didn't mind it, just was weird). |
     "There is someone that I must meet again. And until that day... not even Death himself can take my life away!" |
| Great! episode. All the Phantom Troupes voices are perfect except Shalnark... it's probably going to take some time for me get used to his voice lol. Favorite voices in order 1. Nobunaga 2. Ovogin 3. Pakunoda 4. Chrollo/Feitan (draw, I cant decide who's voice I like better!) |
| The episode was good. In all i wasn't bothered by the voices much. Shalnark isn't that bad IMO. But i still need to hear more lines from him to get a better opinion. The next coming weeks are gonna be really good can't wait. |

Anyone notice Rider from Fate/zero in this episode? I agree. Shalnark isn't supposed to sound like a...a kid. I think a Firo-like voice would suit him better (but that's just me ^^). Also, does Shalnark's color scheme seem off-color and pastel to anyone else? I mean, pale highlighter yellow hair, pale green eyes, pale purple outfit... For Neon, her color change was fine. Pink hair was nice but blue-purple hair works too. Rider is also Captain Kyouraku from Bleach! Looking forward to Romi Paku's performance as Pakunoda. Franklin is Oshitari (Hyotei's) from Prince of Tennis! XD Feitan is Ranma and Inuyasha! As much as I enjoy Mamoru Miyano's voice work, all I hear is Light. Him voicing Chrollo will take a bit getting used to. In fact, I'm still getting used to Miyuki Sawashiro as Kurapika. I keep imagining Celty speaking. Fun fact: Shalnark's seiyuu voiced Kurapika in the Jump Tour '98 OVA HxH pilot. |

| A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more. |
| Looking at Neon's cellphone strap... it is Puu from YuYu Hakusho. Love the episode... though Shalnark's voice is of a brat. His voice is suppose to sound like a nice guy! Damn. I hate it! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Eww, Shalnark's voice is horrible. And also, Feitan looks kinda.....weird to me. But that's fine. Just glad to see him again. He's awesome. |
 |
| Not much happened action-wise, although it looks like the next few episodes will be filled with that. Lots of new characters, too. 4/5 |
 |
| OH MY GAWD!!! THE PHANTOM TROUPE FINNALY APEARED!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS FANGIRLING THE WHOLE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! most of thevoices fit exept shalark! ywhy did they use a women!? ,omg kuroro looked so sexy!..lol and puu keychan ,that was a nice touch! |
 |
| Fucking chills. Everyone and more that I wanted this new anime to do with this arc. OST's and animation is totally in line with the vibe this arc is setting. |
| I'm a bit bothered with Feitan's appearance. I always thought that among the members, he has the most "bandit-like" look. But here it's as if he has flu. I'm pretty happy with Mamoru Miyano as Chrollo since I always find his voice charismatic. ♥ |
| Isn't it crazy they united the voices of L, Light and Near from Death Note? Not to mention putting Tobi's seiyu and Blackbeard's all into one badass villain group. Though I also think Near's voice for Shalnark seemed off. The last guy who voiced Chrollo did a better job as well I believe, but hearing Light say KOROSU again brings warmth to my heart. Here's the scenes if anyone cares to see it: |

| Finally, my 2nd favorite arc is beginning! I honestly just want to see Kurapica's badass moments but I also love the Genei Ryodan. I'm sure will see more of them once Togashi continues with his manga (hopefully sometime soon though I doubt it). |
