[Schadenfreude]

Double Giant Rasengan!

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Finally, we can continue this!

Let's GO!

 

[Man God]

Bad Guy McSatan died.

 

[cntr]

It's time to smile again!

 

[ShinRPGamer]

I could lay out how all of this will likely play out because it's so telegraphed... and I'd probably be right... but why bother.

One can hope it's at least done in the most over the top edgy way at least.

 

[BatDan]

I just realized this is the first episode since the announcement that it's coming back for a brief moment in Jump. Neat.

 

[Raxus]

Oh yea, back to HxH and things happening!

 

[MetatronM]

I imagine it's there because there was no other place to put it.

Japan's infrastructure is also such that it doesn't make much difference. Getting to JFK from my apartment in Brooklyn can take nearly as long as getting to Narita from Tokyo does.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

SILVA BRINGING THE HOUSE DOWN!

No more Transformers.

Not if China has anything to say about it.

 

[Morlas]

time for some flashy ansatsu. also zeno and silva, those would be a pair of main villain names in another series.

 

[Crocodile]

Huh. I don't remember those glowing orbs from two weeks ago. That bit of the fight was super DBZ like

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Meanwhile elsewhere!

 

[MetatronM]

By the way, I believe this episode approximately marks the end of the original '99 anime series.

 

[Zonic]

OH SHIT

MORE OF THE KILLUA FAMILY?!?!

YOOOO WHAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT

 

[cntr]

RAIN.

Japan's infrastructure is also such that it doesn't make much difference. Getting to JFK from my apartment in Brooklyn can take nearly as long as getting to Narita from Tokyo does.

To be fair, it probably takes longer to get between places in Tokyo than it does to get there from Narita either.

 

[TheOGB]

Last time some crazy shit went down

This week: probably more crazy shit

 

[Shard]

This seems like a bad idea.

 

[cntr]

I bet things are going to turn out...unfortunate for them!

 

[ckohler]

"You guys are probably going to die."

 

[ShinRPGamer]

So all these guys are dead men walking basically.

 

[BatDan]

You're all going to die.

By the way, I believe this episode approximately marks the end of the original '99 anime series.

Apparently the cool thing to do now is shit on the 2011 anime and say the 1999 one is superior.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

Except you're in Hunter X Hunter so you'll die anyway. Because you're in Hunter X Hunter and that's what you do.

You die.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

I'm sure this won't be a dark misinterpretation of the fortune.

 

[Shard]

The Ten Dons, the apparent heads of the mafia?

 

[Schadenfreude]

I love Weekend at Bernie's!

 

[Xe4]

Oh, hey it's Killua's brother.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Another form of Illumuni's nen needles.

 

[Mik317]

ded

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Oh dey ded

 

[cntr]

Illumi got them needled!

 

[Man God]

Illumi

 

[Raxus]

Killua's theme really is the best.

 

[TheOGB]

Ohhhhhhh goddamn

Dunno why I didn't see that coming, honestly

 

[Morlas]

woops it's kil's onii-chan.

 

[MetatronM]

RAIN.

To be fair, it probably takes longer to get between places in Tokyo than it does to get there from Narita either.

This is also true.

 

[HStallion]

Apparently the cool thing to do now is shit on the 2011 anime and say the 1999 one is superior.

I do like how the 99 anime handled certain things. The tone was a lot more somber and the mood a bit darker from the very start. Even Mito's reaction to Ging was a lot more negative in its depiction in the 99 version which felt a lot more weighty and added some real gravitas to things from the start.

 

[BatDan]

Fun fact: In the manga, Killua's great-grandfather is present in this scene.

 

[Crocodile]

Wait so are the Zoldcyk family in cahoots with the Phantom Troupe?!?!?!?!

Oh just competing hit contracts? I guess that makes more sense.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

SWEEEEEEERVE

 

[Grexeno]

So the Ten Dons hired half of the Zoldycks, and Chrollo hired the other half.

 

[Xe4]

Yeah, he's not dead. No fucking way,

 

[Shard]

With the Goldyck family, everything is business.

 

[ckohler]

I hate Illumi's stupid looking face.

 

[Moaradin]

Wait so are the Zoldcyk family in cahoots with the Phantom Troupe?!?!?!?!

Only Illumi

 

[cntr]

Assassins: not very loyal.

 

[Man God]

Bad Guy McSatan has main character protection.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

So the Ten Dons hired half of the Zoldycks, and Chrollo hired the other half.

That's... huh.

 

[HStallion]

Only Illumi

And Kalluto.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Oh snap.

 

[Zonic]

The more I watch this, the more I can't believe I held off on checking this series, easily the one I look forward to each week.
