They have to consider moving this anime to an evening slot.

Ok episode, obviously I know this is in the buildup stage. I'm happy they fixed the art though, it was pain in the ass to read this story, it was so badly drawn. Hopefully they will remove or change other questionable chapters later on, especially the voicebubble chapter.

Wow his real art is very good, really gives the characters the feels they deserve, better than the other WSJ. I mean look at the ant.

In the anime she looks like she's made of Adidas fabric lol (that last shot from episode 76)



Amazing episode, that Phagogenesis was a really cool explanation for the being of Chimera Ants, wish more anime actually did that isntead of just throwing new stuff in our faces.

No. Just no. The left panel is his usual drawing... so no.

Phagogenesis is a made-up term though, just saying. It's still cool though.

To be quite honest I'm hoping this episode is the last to make significant changes
to the chapter. At least I hope they don't make it into a habit. Hopefully next week theye just stick to the manga. Adding filler is fine so a long as it fits in with the story and the characters and they don't skip stuff just to add filler. That's really annoying.

No it's not. Togashi's art style is usually more like the right side.
The left side is Togashi on a bad day (or year). In all likelihood
he was probably ill when he drew the pages but was trying to
meet his deadline.

Togashi obviously has the ability to draw well and to do
so on a consistent basis so to say his bad drawings
are his usual drawings is a bit dishonest.
It be like if Shaq got injured and had a bad season
and people said that's how Shaq usually plays.

Dude, that's actually really clever. We need someone to have a "boiling pot" nen ability .

Honestly, we can just eat the ants and solve world hunger since they incorporate so many tasty genes into themselves.

If we were to eat, say, Ant!Kurt would that be cannibalism? ono;

Haha yes. I bet just one of them guys can feed a whole village xD

Hmm.. interesting question for the last part. I would say no because it is a different species/no longer human. Still though, Ant-Kurt didn't look too tasty anyways lmao

really


Anime is about having fun, not fighting over things. I know Madhouse has taken a lot of liberties with things, but who cares? I'm a longtime fan of this series and I'm not angry or anything... Honestly, when I first heard about the remake a few years ago my first thought was, "WOO. ANOTHER HxH FOR ME TO LOVE. 8D" And I still feel like that. Three wonderful versions of a series I love. <3

It's disappointing to see how many people fight over which version is better or whether or not things were screwed up. ;n;

So true...or when he smiled at her knowingly and said, "sure." I held my breath as that ugly creature stood before them and watched to see what Kurt would do. Poor kid, never had a chance to wave that stick of his.
Well, at least him and his sissie were consumed together...but will they recognize each other now that they have been reborn? Will they know their mama before they consume her or take her to the Queen to be consumed?
Gonna be interesting and creepy cool to find out! Can't wait!

I'm going to be brutally honest here. 2 episodes into the Chimera Ants arc and I'm really not all that impressed. I mean there is slow pacing, and then there is abysmal pacing, and then there is One Piece pacing, and this falls somewhere between the first two. Nothing of relevance has happened yet apart from them two kids dying. Speaking of the kids; I think the writers where making fun of us, I mean the only possible way they could have made their deaths more obvious is if they put a big flag on their heads! Granted it was a dark scene, but I saw it coming from a mile away.
Well it is two episodes in so I can't complain too much, but still this is the first arc that I haven't absolutely loved from episode 1.

Oh and Jesus guys, I don't seem to be able to go anywhere in the world without reading a huge manga spoilers about a certain characters death, I was just watching the new ending song on YouTube and right there tons of people mentioned it. It is the same with the opening! No not the opening to this arc! I mean the video for the third opening (the YorkShin one) is also filled with comments about this. I mean please, have some restraint for people who haven't read the manga, if you want to discuss manga spoilers then there are places to go!

While it is true that the pacing so far is pretty slow, it is definately necessary for the content of this arc.

haha, if u don't want to get spoiled then don't read the comments, just watch the video.i mean, there's always some1 who wants to spoil especially in youtube. It's better here since we can use spoiler tab.
