Step 1 - (1999, ep. 12) KILLUA: "It's like cutting the throat of a rabbit."

Step 2 - (to Killua, OVA#1) MACHI: "If you wanted to kill me, you should have aimed for the head."

Episode 94: !????

Step 5 - PROFIT.

The rabbit one doesn't actually mean a lot, I mean, he could have designed Rammot just to fit that line, or it could be a coincidence

But the surprise attack part of 112 is a WHOLE situation, which is brilliant even if it did not mean he planned it back then; it'd mean he has created a WHOLE well-written situation JUST to connect that part, to me that's better than foreshadowing.... Spontaneity = talent > planning = hardwork :P

rant off xD

^I was bullshitting right from the moment I included the 1999 filler that is episode 12.

Killua acts as though he's Gollum from LoTR in that whole nonsense... XP

Overall good episode! I couldn't appreciate the switching back and forth between Gon's date and Killua getting pounded, but after that, Killua's emotional scene, damn, that voice acting was good, the OST was good, but I want to know how did Killua do that, what's up with the thing Illumi planted in Killua. I also disliked the transition from emotional and serious Killua scene to comedic Palm scene, the content in itself is fine, but the transition.. Palm got too serious right there, luckily Knov is back to tame her, and make her his bitch again, it was cute, I guess?

Yay, more fight, Knuckle and Morel vs Cheetu, but both the musclemen don't really have enough speed, hmm, let's see how they take the self proclaim Speed King down.

P.S. Lame Rammot is lame. His time is over at least.

Been awhile since I last watched this.

Decent fight for Killua. Not that exciting compared to his other fights.

Loved when Palm's attitude is twisted. Very funny right there.

Finally the road runner is going to fight some two guys.

3.8/5 Alright episode

I love this episode, for some many reasons.

Firstly, the pacing and intensity allowed me to temporarily forget that I was still awaiting lots of stuff, like finding out how Shoot defeated Killua (and perhaps, what that cage is about?), and seeing how the other "sub-kings" that left to form their own Chimera Ant colonies fare (I mean, so far, they don't seem to actually be trying to settle down at all, they're just moving futher from the nest whilst causing some relatively minor mayhem).

Secondly, Killua being a secret protector (reminds me of Akuma no Riddel just a bit)... I hope he decides to still support Gon, even if it means adjusting his promise to Bitsy. I guess both he and Gon have to get a lot stronger, but now that Killua pulled out that control pin from his forebrain (! how did he even think to perform neurosurgery on himself in the middle of a fight ?), he might be a totally different (or at least, unrestrained by his brothers's "smothering love") person, so I am excited.

I wonder if Gon knew that Killua was protecting him all that time? He does have keen senses, after all....

Killua is one of my fave characters in any series....

Thirdly, we get to see Morel and Knuckle fight against a strong (or at least, super fast) enemy. This could be interesting, we know what Knuckle's power is but with someone that fast, it might not be effective... Morel, though, is still a bit of a mystery. Smoke and bunnies worked before, but, that was against large groups in a forest, and there must be a lot more to his capabilities.

So I really enjoyed this one, and look forwards to the next.

Fourthly, something I was thinking about -- is Knuckle capable of cancelling APR before the 30 day limit is up? Perhaps he would not want to, in order to give Gon time to reflect and do basic non-Nen training, but with the Chimera Ants on the move, seems they could use ever capable fighter. A lot could happen in a month. Anyhow, I anticipate seeing if Gon does any crazy training with weights or whatever.

Oh, but of course, Palm's pscychotic break (or can it be called a break if that is her normal personality) really takes the cake, for me....

So. Many. Knives.

Great episode. Killua's battle with Rammot was the highlight, and it was very touching. It was also intriguing that Rammot actually hesitated to kill him. I guess that's because of his more human like side. And man killua busted his head, reminds me of hokuto no ken what with heads popping and shit. The moments with palm and gon were a bit awkward though imo with killua fighting for his life. Still fun though.

It was so funny when we transitioned from the scene of Gon and Palm admiring the tree full of fireflies to Killua getting his ass kicked xD
But Gon sure is so smooth with things xP
Palm on the other hand is a psychopath..

ahhhhhhh I wanna see Kaito and I want to see him being fixed too! I hope they can do it!

Things have finally started to move a bit faster it seems.

Oh yeah well done to Killua for finding that needle and getting rid of it (y)

I agree Killua's fight with Rammot seemed a little subdued in intensity compared to the manga, but it was still super awesome to watch.

Palm is absolutely perfect. Her reactions, facial expressions, and voice-acting are so funny!

Seeing Killua struggle so much with his fear was painful to watch : the voice acting was great and while the whole needle in the brain felt asspull-ish, I could still buy that sort of resolution.

Lol even the narrator realized there was something weird with a 22 y-o woman going out on a forced date with a 12 y-o boy. Palm is a complete mess, I like her. Sort of.

So we'll get a Knuckle/Morau vs Cheetu next ep ? Cool, cause he's easily my favorite Ant with Hagya so far.

Palm is just too creepy. e.e

Ahhh, so it was one of Illumi's needles. I thought Killua was struggling awfully hard there. The needle makes sense.

I hope Kite can be saved. Still, won't this take away from the impact of his "death"? Idk.

ok this time i dont have anything good to say about the ep, hope we dont have to see Palm that much anymore
the fight was very bad an wth? i thought Killua only escaped from stronger foes or enemies who were just as strong as him but now he was trying to escape from the bunny who was clearly trash even with nen, he killed the bunny with one hit, why d he need to escape?

I think it was because he was actively resisting the needle. If he wasn't thinking about overcoming his fears, protecting Gon, etc., it likely wouldn't have kicked in this time because yes: the bunny-ant does seem weaker than him.

They left out a part where the rabbit guy imbues his feathers with Nen, turning them into blades. But, that wasn't too significant.

The needle part was so emotional, Killua's VA did such a great job ;_; I'm gald Killua is finally freed from Illumi, can't believe it was all due to the needle that Killua's had to suffer so much.

And wow, Gon is just amazing, the way he planned out the date, and giving Palm the most beautiful flower in the world. So romantic.

Would've been better for Kilua to use electromagnetism to draw that needle out of his head instead of jamming a fucking finger in his brain. Or maybe not, the needle might've become superheated from that.

Anyway I'm glad he's over his pussy phase. Killer Kilua is back baby!

I wonder what caused Palm to become this crazy in the first place. Something really messed up must have happened for her to act like this. But then again it could just be the fact that she's a pedo that caused her to be like this. I want to see how Kite looks now, he's probably all sorts of messed up. Him and Palm might get along lol. And if they can't beat Cheetu they have no chance at fighting the King. 6 episodes left in this arc and I still have no clue how this is going to end.

Let's see how that leotard will react to his Nen technic. Also, Morau must have an hidden technic, something stronger and more interesting than a mist.

Gotta agree with this. Although there obviously was something psychological happening there, it was really undermined by the needle. Definitely would have preferred some sort of soul-rocking realization xP

That being said, I'm glad this is over and BA Killua is back

I thought that it was obvious that the main reason was psychological(how could it not be), the needle is there to amplify the control and keep him in check probably for moments like those. Why would people believe otherwise, dunno.

Killua finally took care of that wascilly wabbit, also it seems Palm just goes through the cycle of stalking someone then going out with them then the relationship has a messy end and she moves on to someone else and the cycle begins again

Although it has to be said Gon giving her that firefly flower was genuinely romantic of him, didn't expect that since their date was being played for laughs most of the last ep

And that pulling out the pin scene damn it was so good to see my favourite scene (Illumi and Killua in the exam specifically the 1999 anime version) get an epilogue of sorts

Next ep looks like Kuwabara and Toguro vs Cheeto or whatever his name was

So Killua was pretty much bottle necked throughout all the experiences? Or when did he have that implement? Really interesting though and we finally also see his "true" power he showcased with the exams again.
