How Cheetu got handled DAMN!

You've been asking this question for a while now. My suggestion would be to wait. Maybe keep 1 month worth of episodes before watching them if you think the pacing is horrible.
I personally don't think the pacing is bad at all. The exception so far being that episode that mainly revolved around Meleron (114?).
If you didn't like the previous 2, you won't like this one either.
Next week is speeding up a bit. Not that I did not enjoy the hell out of every single slow episode.

Cheetu, lol.
This 3 minutes stuff is why I rate CA so poorly among arcs in the series. There are cool moments for sure, but everything feels so dragged out. The change in narration style doesn't help either, especially in this adaptation where I have to sit through every exposition flashback. At this point I'm largely watching so I know what people are reacting to each week.

Well that was dull.
Yes, I do.
Would it be considered a spoiler to guess at how many episodes this arc has left?

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
Knuckle noped out of there so hard near the end there lol
People have been asking for an estimation pretty much every week ever since like, episode 100. I'm not really sure why it's such a hot topic!
A hyper-active mind could potentially deduce some events if given a deadline.

I think we all had to know that this would be a connecting/establishing episode, that's the flow of these things, not really sure why some people are disappointed the pacing was still a lot better than some other recent episodes.

According to my probably wrong calculations ~ 15 ( for this arc)

I liked this episode. Like always, this show keeps me entertained without fighting all the time.
Last week was certainly more intense, but this is the ride. I never felt bored or looked at the clock and wondered "just get to it". I'm loving the journey man. It would suck if died tomorrow though, lol.
Was disappointed though one person was only there for one awesome thing, haha.

Too much time is wasted in this anime on pointless characters for litrally the fifth week in a row. We didnt care about, Youpi, Shoot, or Knuckle five weeks ago and we certainly dont care now, especially with the main attraction finally getting some screentime.

Explosion visuals did look kind of fantastic.
Speak for yourself chum.
"Chess is only interesting when pieces are taken, dude!"
I do think there are some pacing problems (some stuff you can get away with in comic form and not so much in real time) and I believe the "we have to build up to a climax every 20 minutes, and if that means recapping very recent events or slowing things down, so be it!" format doesn't help at all. Apart from that, I have to agree: everything that happens matters and is (was, when I first read it) interesting to me.
Why even bother?

Didn't watch this week episode yet.This arc is kind of dragging on but not to a point where nothing happens, it's still interesting enough. Also, if people are expecting battle + battle + more battle then they sure weren't watching this show.
The Chimera Ant arc will end on the anime and then Togashi will resume serialization
. Believe.

Knuckle's a beast and he's voiced by Wataru Takagi. I don't know what your problem is.

The time elapsed is made more apparent in the manga, and personally I think the anime is executing it fairly well, but a couple things could be cut out. Next week's episode should be pretty cool though, if I remember the manga correctly.

Youpi either transforms or Netro v Meruem starts right?
It's possible, but so far I feel like the anime doesn't strictly follow the order of the manga.

I would watch a Zeno and Silva buddy cop movie. straight to blu ray.

Is it confirmed the Chimera Ant arc will be the last arc for the anime?
The one after it, where the manga is right now, would be a perfect way to end it.
It makes no sense to end at the end of this arc (in terms of future DVD revenues and such.) Better to just finish it out.

When the King walked past him.

Thought so. But couldn't it have also been when Meruem was carrying Komigu toward Pitou and the narator said they all froze? Either way I assumed one of the scenes. from when they confronted the King.
Curious as to what Killua has got planned with all that time to kill. Maybe he'll go help Ikalgo? Doubt he will get involved in any of the other 2 fights.
Aww poor Cheetu. I like how Zeno was considered the "warm up". Pretty sure Zeno would've annihilated him faster than Morel.
The previous stuff with Knuckle/Shoot and Youpi was OK, but good stuff this week. I liked how confused Youpi was.
Hope Netero vs. the King and Pouf vs. Morel starts soon. Interested to see what Killua does too.

That scene with Cheetu was one of my favorites in the manga and it was definitely executed perfectly here. Spent a good minute laughing afterwards.
