The Zodiacs don't really have to give a damn though, they aren't the authorities of the association, Netero just asked them to oversee the election, and they're his personal advisers or something, but I don't think they have any more actual power or authority in the association than any other Hunter.
Killua was crying because he was sad for Nanika/Alluka and wanted to protect her.
Illumi left because Killua didn't pose an immediate threat to the family anymore.

What does that even mean? Are you telling me HxH just started and all of this was just merely a "prologue" and Togashi is now starting get into the meat of things?

Depends on the growth of wisdom teeth, as well as the situation of the bones in your jaw. If yours is as good as it gets then yeah no problem. For most people out there it's terrible. They could be impacted. They might have to chip or cut the teeth piece by piece. The teeth might be too lodged into the bone. Your nerves may get damaged and cause permanent numbness to your entire lower jaw.

So I guess I'm going to have to start reading the manga now. I don't know why, but I like that it says everything feels like a prologue until now.
I remember a bit of confusion at the time of the chapter too. Specifically some of the wrong interpretations in this thread popped up then, definitely.
It's the kind of thing that makes a lot more sense when you have the entire picture. If people are still confused by the time the arc's over then that's where I think manga readers should offer explanations.

Hisoka is so good,
Worst part of the episode was that the distance and time travelled made no sense.
Sad the show is taking a break. I wonder how long till they decide to make more episodes. I guess it means I can finally switch to the manga

Nibel X Hunter 143
Finally a small glimpse of Pariston's true nature; I really hope that this arc might show more of his true self before the anime ends. Ging being replaced by a panda was great as well.
Seeing Killua cry because his own brother doesn't accept Alluka as a family member (or even as a human being) was sad. The reveal that Alluka needs to touch someone to heal and that she sleeps afterwards gave scumbag Illumi enough reason to stop bothering them, and I must say I expected this arc to be a cat-and-mouse game between Killua and Illumi, but based Togashi surprised me again.
But one thing needs to happen now: they need to be at the hospital the next episode because Hisoka made it to the Hunter HQ in no time and killed that dude. If I remember correctly, the hospital is pretty close to the HQ. Otherwise him arriving there much faster than the others would not make sense.
And yeah, Hisoka is fantastic as ever; this dude does not give a single fuck about anything else than fighting strong people that come close to his insanely high level.
Pretty decent episode.
BTW, I love the ending theme and keep it running every time a episode of this arc finishes. Does anybody on which soundtrack the song can be found or isn't it released yet?

It's "Hyori Ittai". It's just the second half of the entire song. The previous ED used the first half.

Oh, I didn't know that the second ED was part of the second half of this song. Makes me appreciate it more. Makes it sadder, too.

I'm certain they'll eventually make another season once Togashi gets a considerable good distance in the manga from his last hiatus. Madhouse is by far my favorite studio.

No sense what soever.
Yes, very nice. This music has such positive vibes I love it

I can only imagine that the airships are the slowest mode of transport in the universe, but still doesnt make sense how all the hunters leave HQ and get killed before the airship arrives and how the butler gets to the meeting place so quick.
Apparently we're really close to the manga, like only 2 volumes or so behind. I've also heard that the current arc in the manga is setting up to be the longest, so I doubt we'll see more animated HxH in a long while. Maybe 4 years or so if we're lucky and the author doesn't take more breaks.
This is indeed the case. We're really fucking close. It'll take quite a while for the manga to create enough space for another anime, especially with the current arc in the manga, as you said.
Kinda doubt we'll be that lucky, considering they just said today that he's taking 2 more weeks off due to back pain

.....at least HxH isn't Berserk.

OBVIOUSLY he had already set up his nen at the HQ and then did the same thing he did in the fight with Gotoh so that he'd just be like "nyooooooom" and arrived quickly.
Obviously
Yup, too damn close to even make the minimum 13 episodes that'd be required. Then let's add that said new arc is being setup to be huge and I wouldn't be surprised at it being as long or longer than the Chimera Ants. Then there's also the inevitable hiatuses.
... Yeah One Piece is totally gonna finish before HxH.

Vol 3 (Ch 18-26) / Episode second half of 9 - Episode 15
- Loved the padding on Leorio's pervyness, lol
- Gon never suggested to bet on if he was an old man or a teenager in the manga
- Johness was never confronted by the fake Phantom troupe guy (who got slammed into the wall by Johness in the anime)
- Killua's badassness was censored
- Hisoka was censored once again
- The manga just skipped over the 50 hours of waiting while the anime almost dedicated a whole episode to them in that room
- Tonpa and Leorio never started fighting in the final room in the manga
- Gon got the idea of breaking the walls from the taskmasters (Johness [breaking the wall with his fingers]) and not by Tonpa and Leorio attempting to slash eachother with axes but instead breaking stone when they missed each other
- Gon never wrote a letter to Mito

With the end of 143, I think I can safely say that Hisoka has crossed over to my top 3 favorite villains
A bit less striking a connection, but Pariston's voice actor used to voice Hisoka in the first animated adaptation.
Yes. Watch the dub, best shit-talking ever.
Yes, it's great. Much simpler than HxH is, but it's one of the best in it's genre. And yes, watch the dub.
Absolutely...a shonen classic.
YYH is SOOOOOOOO good. Smile Bomb is my favorite opening ever.

I still haven't finished YYH because of Toonami but I thoroughly enjoyed it when I was watching it years ago.

Pretty much the only negative I can come up with for YuYu, is that the last arc is much weaker then the rest of the show/manga. Problem was that the arc seemed to be very rushed with it being only 17 episodes/22 chapters (compared to 40 chapters of the next smallest arc).
You didn't miss much with the last arc.
I always thought the Seirin dudes seemed pretty weak, but this episode just confirmed it LOL. Also didn't know Morel was a sea hunter and that he didn't consider himself a fighter/strong.
Dammit....I wanna know more about the little baby ant/Kite! But this Alluka stuff is pretty interesting. Kinda over the election bit itself though. Although Pariston is growing on me, he sure is amusing to watch.
Yuzu released a single with both Hyori Ittai and REASON on it. As well as some other HxH related songs. From memory it was pretty cheap.
Hey cool! Not that I really remember what the original Hisoka sounded like.

I missed the other arc too.
The Seirin are part of a splinter group of Hunters? They're not the same group that Netero was part of. Pariston just sacrificed those hunters just to get pass that threshold; evil bastard.
