This was a packed episode, we learned three new Nen concepts but they're simple when you think about it.

Ko- Gather all of your nen into your first (Uvogin's Big Bang Impact)
Ken- Holding Ren for better defense
Ryu- Using Gyo on certain parts of body in real time to defend

If those are hard to take in I'll just say later in the arc Gon and Killua will use these concepts a lot so don't forget!

Gon and Killua "Strenghtened" in the first half and in the second half the group we saw earlier a couple of episodes ago was "threatened" I find it awesome yet terrifying how for Genthru's ability to activate he has to tell them how it works/disarm O.O Still powerful but not OP.

Lol at no transition into the ED was just kind of sudden btw, things are finally ramping up! We have Hatsu training, Phantom Troupe and more progression with Genthru next week : D

On the contrary I'm somewhat surprised they showed a disembodied head
in a bag on a show that airs in the morning in Japan.

Training episode. Gon and Killua are quickly becoming stronger as Biscuit teaches them more about Nen. At the end they begin to learn more about Hatsu, first one being Enhancer.

Poor Killua.. he had to watch Gon training most of the time.

Yeah I was surprised when they suddenly went to the ending. I mean I knew it was coming because the narrator was there.. but where was that music leading up to it?

I'm going to ask this here because I'm not sure how many people are going to check the forums for Episode 1 or any forum from the first arc... But was the mask in the intro (see spoiler bellow) the same one from Jojo's Bizaare adventure (except made of Gold instead of Stone)?

New nen concepts. Ko, Ken, and Ryu.
Finally Bomber is revealed! It is Genthru.

Hopefully, we will get to see Gon and Killua's special moves. It was nice to see Bisuke in just a ponytail.

Hahaha. I love how Shalnark and the others invade the Greed Island in real time. Razor also will finally make his appearance next episode!

I was surprised as well, seems like Nipponland isn't that anal in censoring gore. I am curious to see how CA arc will turn out to be.

Ken - Unlike Ren, Nen isn't leaking out because you add Ten to the formula, basically it's a much thicker Ten.

Gyo and Ko, Gyo redistributes the concentration of Nen. You can focus more aura into one body part. But if you're using Ken, the same percentage would have more Nen. Ko is Gyo, Ren in your hand while using Zetsu on the rest of your body. Technically it's just like Gyo with a 100:0 Body part:Body ratio

Good thing we got the remake because I forgot all that, now let's watch the rest of the episode :P

Why was Puhat's head still intact when it exploded? Just not showing the scene would've implied that so :/ fuck

Also it was Abengane (black guy) who realizes the heartbeat is linked to countdowns.

And Killua's joke, Biscuit says "Rock paper scissors was used in ancient times" and he's like "says the ancient one" >.<


There's something seriously wrong with Genthru's chin, hope it's just a drawing hiccup in this episode.

Other than that the episode was great.

True but by not showing it you can have all sorts of fun
imagining how and why the head did get severed.

Can you imagine

"Let's bring Puhat as a warning to those fools"

"the whole darn body?"

"Hmmm...Nah just the head will do."

Genthru's chin has always been amazing.

I really enjoy training in any kind of manga/anime so I hate to see them speed this up, but they did it in a good enjoyable way so I won't hold to much of a gruge. It was overall a good episode, but I still havent decided if they are speeding up too much by shoving the phantom in there at the end.

Bad news: There isn't much of Phantom troupe to see all the way until middle of the next arc.

Good news: GI is still great and entertaining without the spiders and Kurapika.

^ fail. where exactly did it say or imply that it's been 2 years? remember that at the time that gon and killua was being recruited to join the large group (that was screwed by the bomber), they estimated that they will take 3 months to collect all the cards. they only need 10 more cards to complete the game before bomber revealed himself. based on this, it was close to 3 months since they entered the game.

Thanks for the break down, I was honestly a bit confused about this. Got it now, though.

Oo, Phantom Troupe about to enter this directly huh? This should be good. Well I don't see all their members though.

Anyways, the bombers part got me interested and wondering how the others will deal with them.
