Why do you think episode 75 will air on April 21st?

I think there are still 2 episodes left of Greed Island, 74 and 75.



And CA arc will start on April 21st, episode 76.

Madhouse Sakuga animation ftw... God episodes like these and the dodgeball game remind me why they are one of the few animation studios who could do this adaptation justice or a long running show justice for the matter

The Bombers may be a little generic but that doesn't make them less intimidating. They're pretty intelligent and their skill over Nen isn't to be trifled with. Can't wait to see anime only viewers reaction to Bisky. Killua being boss as usual XD

Another thing I like this series emphasizes is even though Gon and Killua are prodigies and have incredible raw strength like so many other Shonen heroes, that does not make up fully for lack of experience. What Genthru said about Gon will be key in later stories in how he has a good Ren but hasn't mastered control of his aura to his fullest.

Hell yeah to The Emperor's Time and Killua's Character song making a return

I've been waiting so long for this confrontation. Killua's Experiments and Bisky's true form were pretty awesome. I can't believe they left the episode on a cliffhanger. It's going to be hard to wait a week for this.


Gon decides not to fight according to their plan, and instead fights Gethru head on... Typical Gon

Three dope fights in one episode. This is why I love this series.

Animation was great. I say for an episode that's mostly fighting
this is the best as far. I think Hisoka vs Gon is a little bit better
but that was just five minutes of pure gold while this is like half the episode of pure win. (Of course the other half is good too. Poor Battera.)

Butt great animation aside...DAT ARTWORK.
Genthru looked intense in this episode.

Can't wait for next week!

...As usual ;)

I'm a little amazed Gon didn't give them all away earlier on considering some of his earlier reaction to things. But of course, he did do something crazy in trying to get Genthru to use his ability. xD Of course the other fights were great as well. You know my favorite has got to be Killua trying out all sorts of things.

Indeed that was a great episode too but I say this one is better.
To be fair I like these Bomb Devil fights better than Kurapika vs Uvogin
because the former are actual fights and not a one sided murder.

Now of course Killua and Biscuit completely owned their opponents
but the key difference is that Sub and Bara were able to legitimately
fight back and could, had they been clever or strong enough, have won.

Uvogin stood no chance because he was pretty much caught
in the metaphorical web from the get go. Kurapika was only
toying with him to get to spill the information on the other spiders.

Not that makes Kurapika vs Uvogin "bad" in any way.
I mean it's certainly awesome. It's just a matter of preference I suppose.

At the same time I thought the quality of this episode was
better than Kurapika vs Uvogin which isn't to put Kurapika
vs Uvogin down but rather just to say I really liked this episode.

True. It kinda reminds me of Heavens Arena with Gon and Killua vs Gido and Riehvelt
but on a grander scale and with more formidable opponents this time and Biscuit too!

Though I think part of the reason the battles are so good in HxH is that
the big fights are spaced out so that it gives them time to work on them.

Plus they probably got a pretty good budget.

if only Fairy Tail anime has the budget of Hunter X Hunter we will see a lot of sakuga battle scenes lol but they will not have enough time to animate a lot of sakuga scenes though like you are implying

since you are a manga reader does the Chimera Ant arc will have more battles or just the usual rare one episode full of battle scenes like we are getting now and in the past?

Though isn't Fairy Tail have a fairly good budget?
I don't watch it so I wouldn't know but I thought it had a decent budget.

Chimera Ant arc is definitely the most battle packed.
However a lot of them are more short skirmishes.

But battles in HxH naturally tend to be short.

This episode was great, Killua's new weapons are great, though, I wonder what would happen if he screwed up and hit himself.

And I guess the KEIKAKU DOORI was 10/10

It's weird for me. Why the weakest member of Gon team (Which happen to be Gon himself...) has to fight with the strongest of bombers, when a lot stronger ones (Bisky and Killua) confront the sidekicks? Their plan has no sense for me.

Plus, they had a plan, so it's not like they were expecting him to beat Genthru by strenght.

If Gon would have followed the plan he could have got an easy win like the others, with little damage. But he is stubborn, and he wants to make Genthru use Little Flower.

The reason is Gon is the one who hold card number2 and75 and its main targets for Genthru group.
This is why Genthru said in this episode, he take the black hair kid and Sub Bara take the other 2.
So Genthru is the one who aimimg for Gon, not Gon team

I admit being confused by this too at the begining, and I didn't like it because it's a big shonen cliché ( the main character ends up fighting the strongest vilain and everything).
But then I remembered that HxH isn't youre generic shonen and I started thinking about it.

First, it was Genthuru who decided that he would take on Gon, the guy with the black hair would go against Bisky and the red haired guy against Killua.
But then, why did Genthuru choose this distribution ?

From his point of view, it was clear that Gon was the leader of Gon's groupe, he was the one who had the important cards (if you want something to be done right do it yourself). Plus Gon was the one who challenged him, not Killua or Bisky.


Now, form Gon's groupe's point of view. How did they know that Genthuru would choose this distribution ?

First they made it obvious that Gon was the leader:
- He was the one who challenged Genthuru.
- It was Gon who was wearing the Palladin's necklace.
- It was Gon who refused to join the big groupe of people who wanted to clear the game at the stat of Greed island. And Killua just followed Gon's "orders".

Second, they kinda had no other choice. Remember that Gon's groupe spent the last 3 weeks training specifically to counter Genthuru's abilty "Little Flower".
- The only person that could simulate Genthuru's speed was Bisky.
- Killua couldn't train because of his hands. Plus he is the smartest in the groupe, so he focused on developping a strategy.
- and like Mehpz said, when Gon decides to do something, you can't talk him out of it.

Hope this will be helpfull
