Damn that fight was so good despite being short

The scene wasn't as intense as it was in 1999 :(


I totally agree.
Inb4 great episode, 5/5


Depends, the part before being discovered up to the point where Nobunaga looks at Killua goes to Nippon

Everything afterward goes to Madhouse (except the leg scene, in Nippon it was more brutal and his leg was torn off and you see flesh and blood coming out)

Great episode. They conveyed the atmosphere from the manga pretty good.

I really hope they don't mess up with the music in the next. No jazz or happy-shounen tracks there, please. The jazz-track (as much as I like it) playing when they were sitting on the table, was the only thing off in this episode.

Damn looks like Gon and Killua are no match for the Troupes. This pretty much means that Kurapika is far stronger than them now.

I agree with you on the music. (Though I didn't even notice the jazz track until it ended)


I rated this ep 4/5. I didn't feel as much tension as I did when I read the manga, but then again I was sorta looking forward to seeing Paku more than anything.. which is kinda unfortunate since I really do like the trail scene.
and I gotta say, Killua's expressions were great in this ep. (Gon was plain cute as always)

Dang, Gon and Killua got schooled by those Phantom Troupe members. I was hoping for them to put up more of a fight against them, but it's whatever. This makes them more legitimate as villains I guess. The tailing scene was really tense. You could really feel the tension in the air as well as the sense of danger. I wonder what's gonna happen now that Gon and Killua are basically trapped in the enemy stronghold. Will they get tortured or something? That would really suck.


Gon and Killua only know the basics of Nen, while the Phantom Troupe are experts. As they mentioned in the episode, Imagine they were versing a bunch of Hisokas

I accidently voted 4/5.... I meant 5/5!!

AWESOME episode!!! It was kind of light at the beginning but towards the end there was so much tension in the air. And then when Nobunaga made eye contact with them... BOOM! That gave me goosebumps all over.

This is the first time I'm seeing this in the anime, but I've read it in the manga. It gave me the same tingly feeling. I can't wait for the next few episodes when

it will definitely get the top 100 and if yorkshin arc didn't may be greed island or chimera arc it just need a pack of epic consecutive episodes ... and it's not necessary top 10 may be top 50

I think this HxH will be around 8.5 later on, and about 8.8 when it's all over.

This episode got really good once Gon and Killua were noticed, it was really cool in my opinion. I also liked when they were tailing the two troupe members, and the thoughts of the members. I think compared to other episodes, this is a 5/5. I am looking forward to the next episode, it looks like it has a lot of tension, being in the hideout.

Fucking tense is the best way to describe the second half of the episode. Madhouse was clearly the right studio for the job.

What an intense pursuit. And Zoldycks were hired! Tsk tsk... this will be awesome.

And Killua is badass ever! Would love it if he fought more longer with Phinks. This series is really awesome! Been a while since I feel this excited watching an anime :)

fuck that tension was golden
im so impressed with this show right now. i mentioned before that i was afraid the group couldnt be brought down realistically, so i was happiest with how scary the tailing situation was and how effortlessly the boys were outclassed. cause yeah, they're 12, and these people are on the same league as hisoka - worldclass criminals. its interesting how kurapika is way stronger than them, but hes sacrificed a lot for that. usually you wait for the main character to save the day, so im lovin this turnaround.
i have no idea whats going to happen and thats how i like it. also may have internally squealed when i saw zoldyk and the exam master being hired, id like nothing more than to see a match between pros.

The tension was on MAX this episode! So the mafia has hired Killua's dad and grandfather to go kill the Troupe members!! woahh! now I see why Gon and Killua haven't met Kurapika yet, so they wouldn't know about the chains and all, that is a good position to be in right now. I'm guessing Killua's daddy and grandpa will save the boys from the Troupe maybe? I'm so excited! Onto the next ep!

Damn gon and killa got them selfs in deep now. The tension in this episode was just amazing. I was constantly glued to the screen wondering if gon and killua would be seen or not. Now they are the mercy of the entire phantom troupe, just how the hell are they going to escape this.

Oh and holy shit, the hitmans are some really powerful characters. Zeno is practically royalty when it comes to nen abilities.

Craaaap. Gon and Killua got caught. It's a good thing Kurapika has avoided them so far. The entire tailing scene was very well done. I wonder if Hisoka will make any sort of acknowledgement of knowing them.

I'm interested in seeing the Zoldycks fight some of the Phantom Troupe. If the father even had trouble with them, the mafia must have paid top jenny to get them.

My interest is definitely caught.

Damn, they really are in a shitty situation. They really got beaten on that one and now they're trapped good. I really wonder how they can escape that situation.

It's funny how Killua become someone totally different in a dangerous situation. He have some incredible instint. Not surprising we often see him as a cat.
