| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pretty intense match. The king struggling definitely was something of a sight to see. I liked Komugi's strategy where she came it up from years ago. About damn time Cheetu vs, Morel began though. I liked Morel's strategy tbh. |
 |
| I always loved this little fight and the clever use of cloud powers. The King also finally found a worthy opponent, the matches are portrayed in a very atmospheric way. However, I wish we'd progress a bit faster. These sections were a bit stretched in manga form as well and I had hoped they would tighten them a bit. |

| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
| That was an awesome episode, but I'm starting to hate Cheetu. In the manga he was somehow ok but now with that voice I can't stand him. Anyhow, I enjoyed the fight a lot and everything was well made. |
| Morel is 2smart4me In all seriousness though, I love Morel's way of thinking. He can keep calm in unknown circumstances and thinks of the most rational way to outwit his opponent. It was pretty funny when Cheetu created his claw/bow hyping it as a large power boost only to realize how useless it is when he really thinks about it in comparison to his speed Madhouse tapping into their Chihayafuru/Kaiji experience with the Gungi match |

| I was afraid Cheetu's derpface was going to be omitted, but it wasn't! *whew* By the way, the next episode might be only another 2 chapters, based on the upcoming episode titles...yup. |
| Always remember that anime is a niche medium in Japan. Manga sells way better |
| This is so good ~.~ the gungi match was the highlight of the episode :~ |
 |
| Good episode. Morel totally owned Cheetu XD Loved his strategy. It shows how much of a veteran he is. Never wasting a second ^^ The explanation of Knov's ability was pretty nice too. What a convenient ability that it hehe. Hagya's ability of borrowing powers to whoever owes him is pretty fitting for his personality. No wonder he wants to make the king owe him XD And as usual. Loved Komugi vs Meruem. The way Meruem listened to her was a nice first step for his development. And at the end on his throne, his character development has commenced :D...He's enjoying it. Loving Komugi a lot too. Dat PV!! Lots of stuff to happen it seems :P |
 |
| hahahaha.. it's amazing the king still haven't win even once against komugi.. Gooo Komugi.. |
 |
| Decent ep. IDK why, but the arrow scene was a bit more funny than it probably should have been for me. |
 |
| A bit less action this episode. It doesn't matter for me though, love to see morel's way of thinking. I'm was so scared that the king would kill the girl, I don't think he actually will do it. Still no update about killua :(.. |
| Honestly was afraid how they would do the narration in this arc. But it seems nicely done; quick and compact. Worried later on however as this arc is heavy with narration especially toward the 2nd half of the arc. |
| How old is Komugi actually? She said she invented that strategy ten years ago, but she looks so young. |
 |
| Hide and seek is too overpowered lol. When the King placed the 5 - 5 - 1 lieutenant general he seemed like Light Yagami ;). That fight between Morel and Cheetu wasa well thought out. Pretty nice episode, bur Leol's power is probably going to be annoying. |
| Just noticed this Preview of episode 104: http://i.imgur.com/xqMNfva.jpg Actual episode 104: http://i.imgur.com/Wa8TjSG.jpg Madhouse trolled everyone |
| supeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer cooooooooooooooooooool the atmospher is just majestic. |
| Haha , loved how he used his power to break free of Cheetu's power :D And yeah , I wish we would progress faster too , I can barely wait for the final battles. |
 |
| Good episode. Hagya's power is awesome. Most Ants seem to be Specialists though (I guess Cheetu is mostly a Conjurer, right?), not cool at all. |
 |
| Good episode. Shaiapouf is helping the ants to create their hatsu and this is becoming a big problem for the hunters. Cheetu is such a fool, they shouldnt even waste time on him lmao. I missing Killua like crazy now, hope he returns soon. Last few seconds of the preview for next week got me hyped. Gungi girl covered in blood, wonder what will happen :P |

| Shaiapouf:"It should have no significance.." Just you wait..!! |
| Keep moving forward |
| As always an epic episode. Combine an episode of Op,naruto,bleach and fairy fail together and 1 episode of HxH still will be 10 times more enjoyable. Loved Morel's fight and Knov's ability. Komugi is just awesome. The atmosphere in this episode was brilliant. |

| Cheetu's an idiot lol. Leol's ability seems interesting. |

| Nemerun is liking that Gungi Master??? Morel was awesome and he got out of that place. Dang Leo can "borrow" other powers. |
Canopus said: Hagya's power is awesome. Most Ants seem to be Specialists though (I guess Cheetu is mostly a Conjurer, right?), not cool at all. What makes you think most of them are Specialists? Hina is probably one (the manga never mentioned it, I think) as she is a nen exorcist. Leol is a Specialist too. But then there aren't too many others. Neferpitou and (probably) Meruem too. But they ARE special anyway. |

I got trolled. Great episode as usual. Gungi is oddly fun to watch. The King seems to enjoy playing against this girl, don't know what this will lead too but it will obviously be important. Love that ED <3. |

Because There can be no blood out of a smoke close. It makes total sense |
| Awesome episode. However, I miss Gon to Killua :( And I don't understand what the Selection is for. Is it something we aren't supposed to know yet or have I missed something? |

It's just that we have seen few ants using their hatsu and there are already 4 Specialists. But I'm just guessing since I don't follow the manga. |
|
| No Gon this episode :/ I'm getting tired of Cheetu. Hope he dies soon. The game was so intense. Even though I don't know the rules. :P I'm starting to like the Gungi girl. And I love seeing the King's reactions. Leol is a fool. In the preview the King loses one arm. :O |

| The wolf and crayfish are the two most boring hxh characters in the whole series. Shaiapouf seemed pretty unconcerned in this episode, I thought he would be more worried at this stage. |
| I sure love Morel's way of thinking. Also, if they kill me Knov I will get really angry, I swear. Btw, the King is such a tsundere, I bet he will start to like Komugi afterwards. |

Hina is actually a Enhancer she just happens to be one of the rare ones people suited to Nen Removel. Pitou, Leol and Meruem are the only Specialists. And you get that information from....? Because I really can't recall her type ever being mentioned and haven't found anything while browsing through the manga a bit. She is pretty strong in terms of physics, but that's all. |

| Too bad we didn't get to see Flutter get taken out. |
| Just occurred to me that the term 'specialist' is an oxymoron since they are good at everything x.x |
| There's two kinds of people you can't win an argument against: One - Too dumb to tell right from wrong. Two - Too stubborn to admit they are wrong. |
MonteGabar said: TheBigL said: And I don't understand what the Selection is for. Is it something we aren't supposed to know yet or have I missed something? Essentially the King gathers 50 million of the "lifestock" in the palace and proceeds to eat them. The occasional Nen user power will get transferred to him so that he becomes even more poweful, and he gets to enjoy a nice tasty meal as he prepares for world domination. Or something like that. Not by a long shot. Pitou will simply transform some into puppets like Kite to creat an arm with nen users |
| Great episode. Morel did a great job against Cheetu. Knov's hide and seek ability is pretty cool. Leol's rental pod nen ability is pretty interesting as well. |

| Hunter x Hunter sure has some of the most unique powers I've ever seen in a shounen, the ones most recently like, Knuckles and the lions especially. |
 |
| LOL at the end the King said "fuyukai" i've become sensitized to that word because of Kyoukai no Kanata. FUYUKAI DESU! P.S Morel rocks. |

| Been looking forward to this episode; I've been itching to see Cheetu's comeuppance. Morel proving once again why he's GOAT. kuity said: Just occurred to me that the term 'specialist' is an oxymoron since they are good at everything x.x They're not terribly good at enhancement, seeing that it's at the opposite end of the spectrum. |

| Cheetu lost lol and damn looks like next episode is gonna be life and death situation for that girl since the Chimera Ant King is serious |

The only reason why it's placed under conjurer is because conjurers are the most likely applicants to become specialists later on or something. Emperor Time is really the only skill that dwells on the 5 categories. Some of the other specialists we've met are also straight up useless in combat. The fortune teller chick and even Pakunoda who uses regular pistols and is probably good with them but still not nearly enough for a real nen fight. Specialization is more of a vague mix between the other categories rather than something separate from them. It's not to say that a specialists' power may not somehow incorporate enhancement into their hatsu - it's just that, on paper, it's far from being an affinity of theirs, and theoretically could never use it as well as a natural enhancer of the same skill. Notice how a specialist usually incorporates some degree of manipulation or conjuration into their hatsu? Seeing that they're the adjacent types, I don't really see it as happenstance. Also, keep in mind, that Kurapika's Emperor Time doesn't allow him to use enhancement as well as an enhancer; just that he can use it at the maximum aptitude that a conjurer is able to (which is still quite meaningful). |

| ha i knew it, i would like to here all those guys from episode 95-97 saying this arc would last around 30 more episodes tops, guess what with this phasing your wrong :) anyway 4/5 for me |

| My biggest regret is using my real name as my user name. The continuous pursuit of finding that genuine thing. |
| I feel I underestimated the length of this arc, I was thinking of ~40 episodes but it looks like it will be more like 50-60. The current pace is slow in terms of chapter count but that might be because all those chapters are dense in content. I like how they take the time to focus on Komugi VS King though, it was a good decision. |
