Well then, that was a lovely episode. Justice for Kite
We’re up to episode 99 over on Patreon for anyone wanting to get ahead! www.patreon.com/carlie_and_ange
Are you guys planning on reacting to invincible S2?
Please watch classroom of the elite
Guys its a suggestion can you please react to grave of the fireflies
Its good ok thats all I can say but I am sure every one will love to see you reacting to that
Carlie's timing in these episodes though 😂
"I'm rooting for Pockle" - Pockle gets caught
"I'm just happy they didn't show it (Pockle getting killed)" - Shows Pockle getting a lobotomy instead
"Kite might be my favorite character"
💀💀
😂
Facts. Just a lot of monkey puppet shifty eyes when she opens her mouth...😂
JAJAJAAJ 😭
this is literally me :(
“Kite may be my favourite character” when I heard that I couldn’t help but laugh 😭
💀
*Sweats profusely*
@@CarlieAndAnge Speaking of Favorite, Before this arc ends I bet Knuckle will be Ange's favorite character...Just hoping cause he's my favorite..
@@markdelavega4953It will be one of the ants for sure. I am sure you know who.

“We’re getting one of the kings guard? I’m readyyyy”
No ange, we weren’t😭🤌🏼
“Carlie is drowning in an indescribable sadness”
🥰😍 HAPPY GUITAR SOLO 😊😛🎸
Queue to ending song
Carlie: *can't watch "that scene" again*
Ange: Here, I pause the image for you
Pitou's introduction is just so memorable. It really sets the stage and becomes a turning point in the story
I read the manga, that's my first time with the anime and I was a bit disapointed with the lack of good sound effects for Pitou's presence and moves, I get that the animation is old but they could have done a better job for sound. I recall feeling much more dread toward Pitou when I was reading the manga.
Maybe it's just my imagination that expected a stronger representation of her.
@@antoinebrg6299too much expectation with the manga. They couldnt do better with the Sfx in this show, all the intense Sfx, no anime has this level of Sfx yet
@@rainscents if I remember well, bleach had very cool sound effects and the anime is older than hxh 2011, even Evangelion had better audio, I think it's just choices being wrong, or maybe a budget thing
@@antoinebrg6299 " I was a bit disapointed with the lack of good sound effects for Pitou's presence and moves"
Do you really think she makes sounds when she moves? Have you never seen a Cat or Owl in your life? There is no sound when they are hunting, much less Pitou.
@@lucasljs1545 with the distance from where she can jump and her speed I would say making noises doesn't matter lmao, but even if they're not wanting her to make much sounds, you can still avoid cheap ones like they did or make great SFX that aren't supposed to be heard in the anime, sounds that only us viewers can hear.
Ange taking it back to the final scene with Pitou and Kite was absolutely DIABOLICAL 🤣🤣
He paused it too 😂😂
Bro was SHOCKED he needed to double check lol
I laughed and he just paused it for her there
I laughed and cried AAAAAAAA, i forgot how bad this part hurt 😂😭😭😭
The sudden death of kite is the author telling us "this shit is REAL, no plot armor, no power of friendship"
The stakes are HIGH
All the plot armor is used up for Gon.
@@nathanpapp432 Gon literally getting bodied every arc and you call that plot armor?😂
@@Accomplish305i guess he means the not dying getting his hands back etc
@@nicog_99 He had to pay a huge price for that though.
@@Accomplish305 I mean I love HxH but spoilers...
Gon being alive after this arc gotta be one of the thickest plot armor I've ever seen. Alluka came almost out of nowhere with next no foreshadowing with an insane power that just so happens to be the only way to save him. Also I think it undermines the whole idea of him giving into rage and sacrificing his life.
It’s so funny hearing Knov speak about states of panic.
Fr 😂
You are not alone Carlie, I cry too when Killua said "Gon you are light" that scene is very touching..
Agree! Me too!
I just can't help but think about the extreme contrast to Gon's "darkest" moment later on, when he doesn't really care about anything other than his revenge against Pitou, to the detriment of his own health/life.
@@sergio_henrique Contrasted by the brightest light, there's the deepest darkness.
Carlie: "Kite might be my favorite character"
me knowing what's coming: 😬😬😬
"the stronger the opponent, the better they are at hiding their strength" - Killua, beginning of heavens arena arc
I was gonna say this too good call back
I could have killed that old man - Killua on the airship.
Theyve never done anything with idea of hiding strength. All that was done was being able to detect nen or not
@@piusdoe8984 Wdym? What is that you’re implying exactly? (Sorry lol I just having a hard time interrupting what you’re getting at exactly… specially with the first sentence quoting Killua)
@@Austin.Kilgore Killua insults Netero's strength two times cause he never shows any overwhelming sign of power, but he doesn't know...
@@MrLocoSuave Yeah I get that… but it seems like they were trying to imply something else
Gon is an incredibly interesting MC, and it is mostly due to this arc. Honestly with how invested Ange is in Gon and what he becomes, it's making me even more excited for your reactions 😂
Interesting but the writing in regards to his obsession with Kite is very poor
@@piusdoe8984 that's fair enough. The reason why I don't think this as much is because of the 1999 anime/manga events of Kite meeting Gon on Whale Island.
He saves Gon, introduces him to the concept of Hunters and then drops a bombshell that his father is alive and not only is he one of these Hunters, he's one of the greatest. This man completely changes Gon's life. His whole purpose comes from this revelation, and Kite is the catalyst for it. Before even his own father who's abandoned him, Kite is the first father figure that Gon recognises. And it might be a lot from one encounter, but remember that Gon is a child and things like this can absolutely affect children like this.
I do agree though that the way the 2011 anime goes about it is not as justifiable.
@@BazMatazze the fact that they recognized each other immediately in the manga chapter 185-186 says alot about their relationship
@@killjoyenjoyer1Yeah, in an additional, Kite met Gon when he was 9 years old. Gon took the Exam when he was 12. And now they reunion as he is 14.
Their relationship, if Mito was Gon's mother figure, then Kite was probably his father or uncle figure.
@@piusdoe8984seriously?? How is that poor? Don't u understand how Gon is as a person??
Angelo : "I don't know if Kite can outclass her"
Me (Sobbing)
Carlie : "I think Kite is my favorite character"
Me (Sobbing again)
I feel sorry for Callie 😭
Just as I was loving him as a character 😭
Lol i loved him too, too bad he died like that. Its all gon and killuas fault they were there@@CarlieAndAnge
@@ronarazoro I'm watching these a bit late but I doubt it would have made much difference even if Gon and Killua weren't there. Kite had no idea what he was getting into. He wasn't similar in strength to Pitou in any way so I doubt he would be able to beat her or even be able to run away once she locked in
That scene where Pokkle gets caught is honestly terrifying. Just imagine being stranded in enemy territory, then one of them just casually calls out your hiding place and there’s nothing you can do but wait for them to come kill you
The insane feeling of dread and despair. You already know you are dead, so you count the seconds and prepare for the moment, yet those moments feel like an eternity and still when you are caught your heart succumbs. It's honestly a moment so intense for me for personal reasons, it makes me sick (in a good way obviously) every time I watch it, way more than most or horror media.
The beginning of the hunter exam, pre-exam: “Would you save your lover or your mother?”. There was another version of that question asked to Gon’s group. Gon was the only one unable to figure out the answer (silence) because he was stuck on the question. They have emphasized Gon’s innocence throughout the show, but also hinted with other characters of how much of a monster he can become (not in term of strength only, imo). Gon is a naive kid, everyone notices it but admires it. You’re getting(and going) to see his maturation, which comes from difficult unforeseen situations for a “pure” soul like him.
"Kite is my favorite character"
Saying that in the same episode he died is wild 🤣🤣🤣
Gon is a very emotional kid. He has his own rules and perspectives about the world, and if something challenges his viewpoint that's unacceptable to him. Also the writer's decision to kill off kite so soon seems infuriating on your first watch, but you'll realize soon what that lead up to 😅
One thing overlooked is that Neferpitou didn't even care to eat Pockle, a few scenes before there were still ants saying they really wanted to eat rare humans, but Royal guards are so loyal and focused she did not hesitate and even order them to give Pockle to the Quinn, most likely feeling the desires of other ants.
Thins plus the subtle way of showing the scale of powers in the show, with the nen radius and the decisions making are great on this episode.
Actually, how Gon and Killua reacted under extreme duress accurately portrayed where their characters are at the moment. Killua runs the moment he is overwhelmed (one which he was trying to overcome since York New arc), and Gon completely acting based on emotions without thinking about the situation he and his friends are in (same in the Zoldyc Family arc which he has been called out on).
12:03 Just to remember, Killua's Grandfather Zeno in York Shin had a radius of 300m with his nen. So we can pretty much scale him to like 3 times that of a nen master. Kite here is less than 50 meters but like they say he's been using the entire night so it is plausible to say Kite is a Nen master too or a bit higher even.
Now with that in mind compare that to what Neferpitou/Pitou did and found them and immediately and went to engage them. I know Kite death here stinks but it's also setting up a scale, which is kinda why Killua after looking at Netero and the other two still said "You guys are unbelievably strong. But I still can't see you defeating that thing...". Of course there is more to it, like glasses guy said to Killua for nen users fights, but just wanted to point it out.
Also this moment and others to come is one of the things I was looking forward to watching you guys reacting since you guys started Hunter x Hunter. I really like this arc in general and am really looking forward for the reaction to the rest of the arc. Great work you two!
Meanwhile, Nobunaga be like:
6 times actually. 300/50 = 6.
Zeno is a nen monster though, the only hunter we know to be on his tier is Netero. I'm sure some would say Chrollo but Chrollo's power is preperation, he's Batman.
@@Procrastinater Always thought the 50 meters comment was meaning diameter so the radius would be 100m for the Nen Master. So Zeno having a radius of 300 means his diameter is 150m so would be 3 times stronger.
Now I would have to go back and check if the 50m comment is meant as diameter or radius.
Regardless though yeah Zeno is a monster. Which just shows again the power of the Royal Guard and King in this arc
@@ettoreozzy9932 As far as I can remember, the only instances where En is not refered to by it's radius is when Pitou is shaping her En into tendrils.
@@sonmaianh7686tbf 4 meters is all he need because that's his instant attack range, he's about nen master level so he should be able to do 50 meters
In the manga, Pokkle's torture was a little more explicit, Togashi drew the scene in a way you can see his open head.
yea i thought something is missing
that's why I felt more dread when I was reading the manga during this arc. Pitou's presence was also terrifying in the manga, I'm a bit disappointed to see they could have done better in the anime with images and sound effects.
@@antoinebrg6299 This arc was already very much dark. Very freaking dark man, so much deaths, blood and some content that kids shouldn't watch. Bro this arc even traumatized me, a 19 yo teen.
@@NoksReaction lol I understand, yet they probably had to adapt the manga under more restricting anime diffusion rules
I think I read Gon's reaction to Pitou's arrival differently. Both Gon and Killua were horrified at Pitou, because of how thick with malice her nen was. In that situation, both went into fight, freeze or flight mode. Killua wanted to flee immediatelly and with Kite's order, he was able to act quickly in knocking Gon out. Gon, on the other hand, chose fight, but out of desperation, instead of bravery or rage. Because for him, she was a threat for the 3 of them.
Yep. You could literally hear desperation in his voice. Props to the VA. It's true that Gon was going to make a rash decision, but it wasn't that he was delusional with rage or anything. It was an inherent response to fight while struggling with the fear of facing that malicious aura.
Exactly! that wasn't rage, he was scared shitless but since running away was never an option for him (as he decided before) he had to desperately summon his all and his aura's color is already different
Kite's death was important BECAUSE he had so much more to be explored. Pitou took that away from Gon, Killua, and the audience.
The anime made it kinda obvious by making Kite suddenly giving Gon Gin's license (in the manga, Gon had it from the beginning), but that goes to show how Hunter x Hunter can be unpredictable, even if it needs to be anticlimactic.
Actually the license giving scene is 2011 anime only. In 1999 and the manga, we saw Kite leave Ging's license on Whale Island which Gon picked up, so this license scene in NGL never happened and his death was even more sudden.
I like how you guys really talk about what you think about
Good and bad
Many reactor out there , even if they don’t like something , they don’t really talk about it or elaborate about it.
Kite 🤝Nanami
😭😭 nooo
same energy
I think your frustration with Gon is one of the most defining characteristic traits- he's extremely instinctual. He doesn't ever think - > act. He just acts. He responds. But he's never calculating anything in his head ever, he's always observing and focusing on one task. He doesn't know any other way to exist.
But it's alright, cause he has killua. And Killua does the thinking for him. And he loves him for it
Carlie took nothing but L's this episode 😂😭
You guys are definitely one of the best reactors I have seen for HxH! Not only is the reaction fun, you guys actually pick up on the imp concepts, remember the lil details, have great understanding of the characters, the relationships and of the overall show. I think you will definitely enjoy this arc and what it has to offer by a lot, more so than some of the other reactors I have seen.
Chimera Ant arc may be a lil bit slow but to me personally its one of the best arcs of all time because of its absolute peak writing, the character work in this arc is something special. I have a feeling you guys will come to appreciate it just the same. Also want to add, I think it's so sweet how much you two adore Gon & Killua's relationship, their friendship is so precious and does wonders for Killua's character, and its nice to see others appreciate it the same way i do.
No wonder this arc is considered as one of the all time best
We call it Pitou, it's shorter and nicer. It has the best character introduction on the show. Top3 fav characters for sure
I like the man in white haired glasses says here, the nen battle is not just how much aura your opponent displays, its all about how to use your nen abilities.
Y'all are the best HxH reactors this far. Much love you two. Carlie you've got some good insight, good stuff 😂👍🏼
"I think I'm pretty strong"
"Kings going to have the biggest sack" 😂 I'm now rating hxh power levels via sack size thats a pearla
22:34 no way Ange was saying this to Carlie after her favorite character died the same episode she realized it😭😭😭😭 That had to be on purpose 💀
ange : gon loses himself to his rage sometimes.
ange was right, kite raised his death flag when he handed over ging's hunter license.
All the royal guards adopt the latter half of their names as nicknames, Neferpitou being shortened to Pitou, and the other royal guards adopt the same nickname style.
I was so excited with episode 85 because of Neferpitou and when the first time that I cried because of this show. That last scene with Gon and Killua just makes me tear up every single time. Calling Gon light, he shines so brightly, Killua had to look away. But still asking if he could be by his side. WAAAAAHHH! I'm crying while I write this.
carlie tearing up so hard during the scene where killua says gon is light itself was so REAL. felt those words in my heart 🥲
I’ll just say, if you are expecting typical shonen MC tropes with Gon you are in for an utter shock.
and this is where the materpiece all begins.... enjoy
What happened here has nothing to do with character building. Just like the previous arcs, Bisky, Wing, and other characters are mainly instrumental for the growth of the two main protagonist. There are no backstories for them whatsoever. This arc just wanted to emphasize the dark theme and the power play between the King's Guard which is this time Kite was used not only an example to demonstrate that level of power gap but as well as for Gon and Killua's character development.
Even with both arms, Kite will still suffer the same fate as Killua stated that even if Morel and Knov are such monsters (same level with Kite) Killua still dont see them winning against the King's guard on a 1v1. What happened to Kite is so sudden and sad but it is also one of those nerve racking writings which shows no mercy and offers no predictability.
2:12 be careful what you wish for 21:33
my favorite anime because it got me back into the genre ..
almost cry with carlie too, love you guys, thanks ❤
Love how upset both of you were, same here... But that's the thing Kite really did have so much more to give, and he's taken from us so abruptly because of the little dread cosmos that is born with Neferpitou, really taking things to a new level never seen in this series. And the fact that the boys feel the same only worse always crushes me
Maybe you guys didn't notice, but before the shot of Pitou with Kite's head on her lap, there's the transition of Pitou's surroundings where everything is pretty destroyed, and she herself appears with some scratches, so we can assume that they kinda had a fight. Kite wasn't immediately obliterated.
31:07 Carlie, the only person in the world who managed to make Kite's death laughable 🙃🙃🙃
When pitou attacks Kite, it was night. and when we see that Pitou has Kite's head it is already daylight, at least they fought all night.
I was young when I watched this the first time and I had to close my sister’s laptop. I dropped it for a while before I picked it up again. I could not believe what happened.
I always want to watch every reactors to reacted episode 85 😂
Kilua was right about measuring pito's power she's one of the top characters in the show that have big radios of nen like bigger than you can imagine.
I don't think Pitou is a she tbh, its either male or genderless
21:41 I love your reactions Carlie, so entertaining.
Ange also got shocked multiple times.
I may have replayed this video 5 times now.
I personally think it's good that kite died early, it showed the boys the seriousness of the situation (their mentor is not as strong as they thought) and it shows the viewer how dire the situation is and how quickly things can change/how quickly people can die. no one is safe
I think what makes the chimera ant arc feel so epic is not only the size but that it also kind of plays out in it's own three act structure; with Act one being about the discovery and investigation of the chimera ant threat and capping here Kite's untimely death.
"I think I'm pretty strong"
Hahaha, Poor Kite. He was Unarmed in that fight, no wonder he ended up losing his Head 😆
Was waiting for this reaction since u started this series 😈. I wasn’t disappointed! 😂
Everyone leaves unfinished business. That's what dying is. -Amos Burton
Carlie love your timings man HAHAHA
This is one of those episodes I’ve been eagerly awaiting 🍿
I've only started watching you guys when you started Haikyuu, but for Carlie to pick both Daichi and Kite as her favorites and for both to die is unreal
Carlie's got a superpower with these favorites.
Good job mate, you just spoiled haikyuu for me😢
Nice job spreading spoilers get tf outta here
I didn’t even know ppl could die in Haikyuu… I mean Haikyuuu is the Volleyball anime, right?
(Maybe it’s like due to a sickness/disease or like a car accident… something like that. Lol Because my brain immediately went to them somewhere dying during a volleyball match or as a direct result of one but as far as I’m aware the volley ball in the anime isn’t akin to dodgeball in HxH, so dying via volleyball sounds pretty implausible.)
@@Austin.Kilgore I’m not even sure if he does or not but I’m guessing this weirdo is a manga reader and they just love to spoil so I’m assuming he does die in someway imagine it’s by a spike or sum shit😂
@@Austin.Kilgore daichis one is a joke like when he got hit by the ball in a match and fell
I have been waiting patently for this episode:)))
Kite was my fav too 😢
85 is insane man !!! HxH is next level
I understand how you guys feel about what happened at the end there. It is very shocking, and feels unfinished. But after watching what comes next, it makes a lot more sense to me. I am interested to see if you guys feel the same.
Great reaction as always, can't wait to see more 😁
Remember when Gon fought with Hanzou, it is very difficult if not impossible to change his personality😶
kite gave the license originally in ep 1 in the manga, it was just catching up here cause they skipped it... also for me the value in missinig so much about kites possibilities and what he could have done or his abilities is to show that it is not a telegraphed show where you can expect a character to be squeezed before dying, anything can happen to anyone and this was the result of gon and killua getting in over their heads here... not sayinng kite would have won but he wouldnt have started missing an arm just to save gon and killua
in other words its not a tale about how killua and gon develop, but a story about a world in which they are are a part of but there is no plot armor here
as ange said it feels like our time with him was cut short... thats the idea, thats how you feel when someone close to you dies unexpectedly
Looking back at this one gives me Jogo vs Nanami vibes
Been looking forward to this episode for a lonnnngggg time :)
Shit was absolutely hilarious when Ange rewinded to the scene
Ange! Always saying Gon needs growth but you all forgetting that Gon is a kid who had a happy childhood and still straggling with the evils of the worlds he I’ve been always emotional since the beginning! comparing to Kilwa who were an assassin who knows when to stay and when to run. But As soon as I saw Kite’s Head as much as how terrifying that was I was so excited for this arc and so scared of the king! And when I saw the king I was just 💀🥲💔
Nen affinity is innate. You dont have to be an enhancer to force someones awakening, and the affinity of whoever awakens you has no effect on the awakened persons affinity.
Been waiting for this one
Your reactions made me reminisce the first time I watched the Chimera Arc, it is my favorite Arc.
12:16 "Maybe Kite can take this chick" Bro said it too early 😩😭
Great reaction!
Killua is sensing amount of aura (based on what they output at rest, he can extrapolate what their aura output in combat is. Of course it's not a 100% accurate technique, just like he said about estimating strength back in Heaven's Arena, they could also be purposefully reducing the amount of aura they exhude although there's not really a reason to do that. Or they could be out of shape and at their lowest and be actually stronger once back into shape, etc... so many ways in which that estimation could be flawed), he doesn't know their ability but he has a good grasp on how much aura they have at their disposal and strength is pretty linearly tied to aura. So what he's saying is that Neferpitou has so much aura, he doesn't see the three of them standing a chance. Of course that doesn't take special abilities and experience into account but that does mean that on a purely "stat" level, Neferpitou alone has way more raw strength than all three of them combined, at least in Killua's estimation (which once again, could be flawed for a number of reasons). And she's only one Royal Guard.
"We didn't even get to see them fight" it probably wasn't much of a fight tbh. At least Kite got scratches on her, that's pretty fucking insane already. Neferpitou literally made a 2 km jump in a matter of seconds, Uvo is a baby compared to her!
"it was a very anime setup" good call here xD The scene is actually completely different in the manga, there's basically none of the death flags on Kite beside his bad feeling. No "I'm giving you words of encouragement and something precious: Your father's license" (iirc, Kite gives Ging's license to Gon in chapter 1). In the manga it's was made much less obvious that this was coming.
"The writer thought Kite gave Gon the license so it's okay" Nope, as mentioned, Kite gave the license in chapter 1, years before the start of the story. His role in the story was genuinely to be a somewhat known and valued figured slaughtered by Pitou. That being said, his death doesn't mean his influence won't be felt longer! His role in the story might amount to more than this. Similarly all the part where Killua praises Kite is not canon, that's just anime filler. In the manga, they make the lion run away, and next scene Kite feels Pitou, there's nothing in between. I suspect that the anime felt like it needed to add this scene because it removed Kite from the first episode which was stupid. They were forced to add some cheap dialogue to increase Kite's relevance because they introduced him out of nowhere instead of having him being an old friend, not only to Gon but also to the viewer, that got organically reintroduced.
The Arc truly begins 🫵
BEST reaction channel, love the content
Such a shocker to see after Gon's reassurance 😢
I love this arc, and I do think it deserves the praise it gets. But there *are* problems (the pacing being probably the most major one).
Pretending its perfect and can do no wrong is silly. I'm glad you guys are honest with your feelings!
There are issues with pacing but they haven’t reached that point by ep 85
also love this arc and I agree the lows hit pretty hard. Pacing and some parts that sometimes seems to drag a bit. But I think the highs of the arc are one of the highest highs of anime arcs in general which ends up being overall worth it to me.
Seeing your reaction to his head was great.
When I saw the title of the vid I literally hear it in angelo's voice
would love to see y'alls reactions to Madoka Magica! it's only a short anime with 12 episodes + 1 movie!!
Dont worry Ange Gon wont dissapoint you
''gon loses himself to his rage sometimes'' 😭
That last scene of Ep 85 was basically when you know, shit has hit the fan - this arc is gonna be about kill or be killed.
My favorite character finally comes to the world
I KNOW RIGHT
21:00😭21:29😭
nice reaction
Ange: was that a good roll???
carlie: NOOOOOUUUUU ITS A STICK!!! 🤬
ange: *laughs his balls off* 😂
Dark as!!!! this arc is truely special
I think Togashi really set this world up where he shows how dangerous and unpredictable situations can get for hunters. Sure, it might make sense to have Kite offer more for the series, but it seems like those kinds of narratives don't fit so neatly in this world. You have named characters get lobotomised and butchered, or shot and eaten, or have their heads decapitated and played with. The standard anime tropes and narratives aren't held so sacredly in HxH.
Carlie is a master of foretelling now
Kite dying is just the spirit of the show, it isnt the classic, where the MC looses, then falls back and then comes to win. Kite dying just shows how strong Pitou really is. just like Killua said "this is the real world". And i really like how they showed the childish innocense of Gon, where he still belives kite would survive that, the show really did well reminding us, that these are still childeren. Kite dying is terrible, but the second Pitou jumped towards them, there was just no way, he, Gon and Killua could have survived that togther, it was either he or them.
27:40 Ange has seen the future 😂😂
i think one of many reason they let us see kite lost in the beginning to inplant to you the "idea" how brutal and strong the chimera ant is, thats why in 2 episode we can see how neferpitou behavior and killua was saying that 3 of pro hunter including chairman netero was no where near her and scene when she killed kite, to make the audience realize how big the final in this arc is, you will know when the last battle came closer.
I'm glad you liked Kite so much. It makes the rest of this arc better.
