19:44 "like... no offence to the wolf, i'm sure he has a purpose here"
*quote of the century*
He has one of the best scenes in arc, so she is right
@@shamgun8750Yeah, that scene is so underrated. Both Meruem and Welfin's absolute development peak
@@shamgun8750 And that scene is literally a parallel to 116.
@@disprofundis3477 is not parallel lol
@@asmodeos6938 Media illiteracy is strong in this one.
"You have it easy, Killua... Since it means nothing to you."
Probably the last words Killua wanted to hear from his best friend.
Kinda curious to think that Killua must have killed more people than Pitou.
Translations a little off too. He specifically says "...since this doesn't concern you". The original translation sounds like Gons saying Killua doesn't care enough but really Gons saying that it doesn't concern him specifically as Kite was someone close in relationship to Gon (because of his father) while Killua only new Kite recently.
@@K-J-A Yeah but we don't know if the people Killua killed as an assassin were innocent people or evil people because I can't imagine Killua killing innocent people even back then.
@@FrostandFlame89On chapter 182 (end of GL) Killua confirms that he killed people that "never made the choice of risking their lives"
@@FrostandFlame89 I would say that that's because we tend to think about the Killua we see throughout the show, but the Killua we see in the Hunter exam, who is already drifting apart, still has the attitude of someone who definitely did... And, well, he confirmed at the end of Greed Island.
Bro, the amount of fear that Lola experienced in this ep was crazy
The contrast between the pre opening expressions to the end of the reaction😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
the trauma
they r not ready for whats comin
I agree with you here😂❤
The exact reason why i love watching them react to things LOL
In this episode were 4 injuries: Komugi, Killua and LM 😅
Pitou instead of Komugi, since Komugi didn't get injured this episode.
gon is hurt too,hes the only cried there...
I empathized heavily with Milena's tears at min 16:44. The words that Gon reserved for Killua were truly filled with disappointment and rejection, emotions that Killua absolutely DID NOT deserve from Gon, And the fact that Killua "took that hit" so silently by his best friend, makes those words more and more heavy.
However, the context obviously makes Gon's sharp reaction understandable and pitiable (in a positive way). Gon was literally first overwhelmed and then broken by a tsunami of emotions that no twelve-year-old could have handled.
crying at an anime your life must be pathetic
@@MJfromdaO Yes, in contrast to yours, which must be amazing. Judging by the fact that youre attacking someone you dont even know for getting teary eyed in a really emotionally packed scene from a show.
@@dejardinero2602 Wilbur Saragunaraj
@@MJfromdaO ????????
One of the best scenes I've seen in anime. The writing, animation, voice acting, OST... Absolutely brilliant.
For real. And completely opposite to the usually cheery, positive-minded protagonist we know.
Another thing, Pitou said "she is the reason the king is who he is." This relates to her response to the king's name "the most important thing is his feelings." Pitou is the only Guard who cares about how the King feels beyond his physical safety. She is the only one who has shown a certain degree of empathy, taking into account that she was practically just born.
This is considered one of the best voice actings in anime history, Megumi Han who is the seiyuu of Gon, did an amazing work in this scene.
From Gon's perspective, he has had to wait for months and months for this moment, and everyone around him enabled him bottling up his emotions instead of talking about it, including Killua who, by the way, specifically told Gon to focus entirely on Pitou and disregard even other people being killed right in front of him, but now that he finally gets to have that confrontation, he is told he must wait even more for the enemy's convenience... Pitou never waited for them back in NGL, so why should he? Why should he trust that Komugi is even an innocent person at this point? Killua trying to stop him now just comes across as hypocritical and insane from the perspective of the mission as this would be the perfect opportunity to kill Pitou instead of risking millions of lives. That's not to say that Killua is wrong for trying to stop Gon, but I dislike the way many people frame him as the paragon of morality here when he is mostly uncomfortable with the idea of Gon not being the "light" anymore, as well as concerned with how Gon might feel about this after the mission is over, I highly doubt he actually cares about Komugi when he was literally planning to sacrifice innocent people in the city to distract the Chimera Ants back when Gon had his Nen sealed. Killua is a child just like Gon and he is acting out of emotions just as much, he feels like he is losing what Gon is to him and because he attaches his worth to their relationship, he is stuck between not being able to confront him about it and watching him descend. He has fully committed to the role of support while Gon burns himself out (think of the Dodgeball game) instead of actually expressing how he really feels.
Gon also has a lot at stake here, it's not just that Kite is a friend, he is his savior and the person most connected to Ging. To make it worse Gon feels responsible for what happened to Kite. If he can't save the man who saved him, he would feel worthless as a person and undeserving of being with Ging, so he must prove his worth, hence why he says "fight me so I can get Kite back" in that order; in his mind fighting and defeating Pitou is the trial he must pass first before receiving the reward of restoring Kite, if Kite is brought back without him having done anything he might as well have failed the "test". I really dislike when people make it about Gon being a "monster" here when he is just a kid with extreme self-esteem and identify issues who is being pulled in opposing directions by everyone around him, and is now forced to confront one of the most uncomfortable situations imaginable. It is, as he says, just unfair.
I don't think the way he said it was appropriate, he was unfairly lashing out at Killua, but there is some truth to the fact that saving Kite is not something Killua has to care about much, he is here because Gon is, and he cares because it affects Gon, but from Gon's perspective he is all alone in the rage and anguish he is experiencing, and that is truly one of the most frustrating feelings one can feel, it's very invalidating, like he is is suddenly being made to be the bad guy in the situation for having feelings (a healthy way of communicating this would have been something like: "I'm frustrated because it feels like I'm the only one who has to deal with this pain right now and you're sending me mixed messages").
The tragedy here is that both Gon and Killua have very valid feelings about this situation but neither of them is equipped enough to have a conversation about it and communicate the issues their relationship has due to their trauma (Killua feeling like he will be abandoned if he isn't useful, Gon feeling like he will be abandoned if he isn't strong), it is not the one-sided conflict that people think it is, although Gon's mistakes are certainly more direct and hurtful.
At first I wanted to disagree with you a bit but you actually captured perfectly what Gon and Killua are going through. Nicely worded
Really well said - I think people are quick to frame Gon having this 'monster' moment because we have had it told to us so many times that Gon is 'a monster' or 'like a monster' or 'scary/terrifying' - now that he is exuding so much ferocity, it's easy for shonen fans to get lost in the tension of it all.
The 2011 version really has a 'show, don't tell' issue in that it is mostly always spoon feeding its audience the feelings and surface level nuance of what is happening - I found this episode particularly egregious with the "pitou said...the truth" and many more instances. To me, this is where I am unable to even open my mind to this level of media literacy analysis and thought about the show that you are displaying here. Something about the show (but more obnoxiously the narrator) telling us everything that is happening on screen and every emotion being felt in ludicrously prolonged sequences instead of letting the audience have time to think and ponder on their own perceptions just makes me brain completely shut down and just enjoy this arc for the bits I can - the phenomenal VAs and phenomenal storyline. Always makes my heart wonder what an original '99 would look like, or a remake even.
TLDR thankyou for writing out stuff like this, gives me angles that I can't usually get to on this arc as I struggle immensely with the narrator and the storytelling, despite the story being, in my opinion, one of the best shonen arcs in history.
Very interesting, let's see "Read more" oh hell no
y es
Talking about gon for 400 lines and only mentioning ging once is ridiculous. Gon is depicted as a selfish child, as a bad person, he always has been. There is absolutely no moral justification to his action, even within his compass, that’s basically what the whole scene means. Blaming people for thinking so low of gon after this scene is just beyond stupidity, it is exactly what the author wants us to feel.
I be forgetting how well these guys understand this show so well sometimes
We are on their patreon for a reason. Love the girls
@@karabomasibi2331 I watched like up to 50 HxH reactions over the last 5 years (not all complete) and they are already at least in my top 3.
They are smart and catch alot of details, they dont just rush the recaps like so many others do and are funny on top of it.
They make other reactors look stupid Ngl 😂
@@dididyo2253 you know filmbuff he is awesome aswell imo the smartest reactor out there. Watch his aot reactions mind blowing
youre joking right?
This episode is a work of art. It shows the depth of Gon and Pitou's personality. Killua realizes that ants are not just murderous monsters, but that there is a human feeling.
Still pitou did horrible things to kite so gon's rage here was on point
Of all people Killua as an assassin is probably the one knows the most about how Pitou as a character is
Honestly, one of the best discussions I’ve seen for this episode. I seen a lot of people reacting to this episode, and almost no one made the connection that Gon’s rage is largely due to his abandonment issues from Ging, a lot of people don’t really understand Gon’s character. Goes to show that you guys understand the character well.👌
What abandonment issues?
@@PlanetaryPluto He was abandoned by his father and his whole life motivation was to understand WHY he was abandoned.
I think it's very interesting to see how different male and female reactors deal with moments like this. The guys usually projects their own anger issues and repressions and end up getting hyped when a characters loses his composures, on the other hand the women have a much more nuanced and mature approach to it. This moment is hinted throught the whole show, Gon is a kid and is completely unable to deal with frustration and with his own shortcomings.
@@PlanetaryPlutodid you even watch the anime?
Ging never abandoned Gon.....He knew as a hunter, he was not really capable of raising a kid....So he chose whatever was best for Gon.......Ging literally set the whole life of Gon into motion right from the start through various means....If Ging really wanted to abandon Gon, he would have never brought him to the Whale island to his home and family.....He already did way more than many of the anime dads out there
This episode is so good. The emotions from both sides, the voice acting from Gon's voice actress. One of the best episodes in the show imo, but a few more of my favourites are to come. Great reaction guys!
I agree with you here is amzing episode keep going Queen l fell şad for the cat girl here too save the poor girl that king care for her 😢 have nice day my friend
Shout outs to Killua VA, that part when she does this sound when you are about to cry but you have to talk and it feels like you have something stuck in your throat wow, she nailed it perfectly
@@DavidHernandez-dg3jd so glad you mentioned that part. Gon's VA absolutely kills it. But that moment where you can hear Killua try to gather himself and hold back that cry/choke is so powerful, I felt that!
1:03:05 You remember this pose from Hisoka, when he was waiting for one hour until Gon and Killua were learning Nen in the Heaven 's Arena arc
(Edit: i call this the HunterxHunter's "I'm waiting right here" pose)
@@moonshapedpool they didn't see this scene yet
“This isn’t fair, damn it!”
Greyness doesn’t exist in children. Most can rarely comprehend the complexity, chaos and most importantly contradictions in the ‘real’ world and in humans. This is Gon’s first taste of pure grief and he responds like any child would. Add Nen to the mix and all the potential and … well you get this.
Togashi is a true master of storytelling and character. And Gon is one of his best creations. And all he needed to do was write a realistic child.
Then he wasn't realistic before? Gon was "above revenge" when it comes to Kurapika. He's just a hypocrite.
@@marodonthemorone yes he's a hypocrite and that's what makes him human. Expert writing
It's not just about children. Psychology shows that, for the most part, regardless of how we intellectualize our emotions, everybody has that pure emotional side that doesn't care about reasonings.
Inner child work is a massive facet of therapy, we all have an element of that in us
A child with immense power who was able to do what they wanted, when they wanted, and very few people could tell them otherwise.
@@marodonthemoroneexactly, childs are selfish and hypocrites, thats the point in that scene, kite himself foreshadowed this scene when he describes gon mindset as dangerous.
I hope Pavle got paid well for all the work they’ve done for HxH
Lol they died laughing. Next Pavle I meet I am lmao
I heard paplo at fisrt😂😂😂😂 pavle is good tbh is close to "parle" in frensh wich means "talk" and the only narrator do is talking and talking.....
@@Idkexactly Ayyy I thought the same thing 😂🇫🇷
Why you write they? It's obviously a he
@@tristan7720 I disagree with the idea that Pavle’s pronouns are obvious. I’ve never heard Pavle share their pronouns, and I don’t want to make assumptions about how Pavle identifies, so I used “they” to respect Pavle’s freedom for self-identification
the weird moment people somehow believe Pitou knows who the fck Kite is.
She just says yes to all the requests, cause she has a mission to accomplish. a mission requested by her king.
she literally has no clue of who kite is
I mean, the royal guards are superior in most aspects, Pitou is nowhere near as smart as Pouf, but she assuredly have better than normal memory. She might put two and two together if she recognized Gon as to who Kite is.
i mean she probably remembers gon and killuas faces from when she killed kite,plus they know they lost kites body to the hunters
@@Exile97 She only remembered them when she was Kite's corpse. Ep 130
@@disprofundis3477don’t spoil things like that man
@@ZingarolhoGamer His typo/incomplete sentence helps with the spoiler tbf.
Megumi Han 👏👏👏 we are not worthy of your talent!!
Her portrayal of Gon throughout the 2011 HxH is an absolute standout in the medium of anime. Any time a clip of this episode is on my Twitter feed I have to stop and watch it.
What an absolute masterclass of voice acting! Happy, joyful, kindness, rage, cold fury, deep sadness, confusion, pure hatred. Her Gon is a triumph. She stands with the greats.
she's incredible
her performance in the Crybaby adaptation of Devilman was so good, too! even if the Devilman manga is better..
Megumi is a girls name lol
@@kc_h7h yeah, she's a woman.
@@kc_h7h Wow a girl with a girl name, how surprising.
Yes, Gon's rage comes from the relationship that Kite had with Ging so he connects him to his father somehow, plus he was the reason that Gon wanted to become a hunter and also he feels guilty and he is scared that he will let Ging's down. Remember he didn't wanna lose to Raizor because of this.
Legit the only people that I've seen who actually go in depth of the reason behind Gon's rage and sadness, you guys have such good grasp on the characters it's amazing
Gon's voice actress was formidable. She gave her all! There's so much hurt and so much rage. I always get chills
Gon is voiced by a woman??? Wow, she did an amazing job
The best anime reactions on youtube easily. You guys have such a good understanding of characters, themes of the show and the story the arc is telling. I just finished watching Studio Gek watch this show and they would just complain 90% of the time because of "slow pacing" or 'So boring there's no fights". Such a breath of fresh air watching reactors that aren't tik tok brain and actually want to see story and character development and not just fights 24/7.
they are some of my fav but try filmBuff trust me
yeah I watched studio gek too and was shocked at their lack of understanding and the only times the entire raid they got excited were the two "major" fights. Watching these two comprehend deep implicit stuff about all characters and appreciating even the side ones is just 👌
@@szucchetti4667 filmbuff is on a tier of his own.
@@wassimazmy4023 So true!
Haylo&Kiss are great too!
Yes, Kite is very important to Gon.
Kite is the reason why Gon didn’t die in the forest, and Gon learned through Kite that he has a father, and that said father is is still alive.
Back when Gon & Killua returned to Whale Island,
Gon showed Killua the place where Kite saved him, and he told Killua that Kite is the person who inspired him to become a Hunter.
The anime omitted these important scenes.
I think it goes deeper than this, I think Gon hated the feeling of hopelessness when they first met Pitou. He's mad that he's ready now and not back then. Gon has something dark inside of him imo.
I know it is a very unpopular opinion but imo the 2011 anime omission on Gon-Kite relations doesn't change THAT much the significance of these moments in Chimera Ant's arc. Like people told them to watch 1999 anime first ep and I don't think it was really necessary
@@cielrms It doesn't make a big difference but it adds so much more
@@cielrms unpopular for good reason
@@cielrmsit doesn’t make it terrible but worse. And people logically prefer better version to worse one. Same thing with Leorio, anime make him clown too much
been waiting for this since episode 1, i still get teary eyed even if I've watched it more than 10 times
Shit gets REAL from here on too
This arc is full of messages that spark those deep conversations and analysis.
Tying Ging and Gon's abandonment issues to these scenes on your first watch is really great. It's something that a lot of fans disregard when they watch this episode and end up simplifying Gon's actions in the process but Im glad you guys are looking more into Gon's mind beyond just "he's a monster 😱"
One of the best parts about Gons character is despite how obvious his actions seem on the surface what makes up his thought process is usually kept in subtle details and connections
That last part is like the stairs scene with everyone frozen when Dragon Dive hit. Gon does a simple thing , running forward but it's packed with reasoning. Gon has always been instinctually intelligent, I love the character consistency
Exxactly. I hate that misconception.
Remember when Kite asked what Gon would do if one of his enemies worried about his own comradess? Well, here's the answer. Gon was going to kill Pitou without caring if Komugi died in the process.
That's why Kite said Gon's way of thinking was dangerous.
And I'm going to say it, Pitou is not evil, at least no more evil than a house cat.
gon still a kid that lived in the woods with out much morals and after that all he did kinda worked out with not many consecuences, people forget it
killua is just a different breed, dude was build to be an assasin but was teached little bit of common sense, kinda. gon is more like a beast than a human. he acting on his emotions all the time. both dont act the way a kid should but god is way worse than killua. he isnt like the other main characters uwu
why would gon trust that komugi is a good person tho ? according to his pov
I love that the comments in your videos are always mostly just as thoughful as you guys. When we see comments and reactors with hxh always have a lot of people misunterstanding this characters or calling gon a monster. This is really refreshing. Nature is healing 🙏
40:40 Yes! Each time I watch this episode, the Gon-Nobunaga confrontation always comes to my mind. We could see how Gon would react to situations like these back then already.
I'm 100% here for my boy Gon. Despite all the bad things you'll hear and read, I think the first thing about him is that he has a heart of gold, and he values relationships, friendship above all else, because that's what he's lacked his whole life. He had no father and no friends before the Hunter's exam. So after meeting Leorio, Kurapika and Killua, he did all he could to protect them. We saw a lot of Gon, many times giving everything for his dear friends, without hesitation. I find it hard to believe that people forget that this is a key aspect of his personality.
For a good part of the series, his friends, especially Killua, didn't need to be saved or protected by Gon. Then came the Chimera ants, and Gon's inability to save Kite broke him. Kite was a friend, a comrade, and something more. What more exactly, depends on which version of the show you watched.
Here, in this scene, he is at the limit of his trauma. He is on the verge of breaking down. He hates Pitou immensely, but he also hates and blames himself for not being strong enough to save him.
Gon has many problems. He has lacked proper guidance for far too long. He is reckless. He focuses like a laser on what he wants because he's always used his will and his abilities, fully and freely immersed in nature (also because he's Ging's son). But he's not inherently evil, and please, don't be the person who compares him to the likes of the Spiders. He is not a cold-blooded killer, he will not kill people casually because they are in his way. For the Spiders, killing is Tuesday. For Gon, being about to kill is the worst day of his life.
It's also great that Killua is starting to learn his self-worth here. It was about time. Still, I have Gon's back 24/7.
Me seeing the thumbnail. Me seeing the length of the video.
Oh yeah, this makes sense 😂
13:05 , a testament to the writing, she LITERALLY gets chills during this scene!
It's great how they analyze the episode. They are the best. This episode has it all. 10/10
Something i really like in this is the throwback to the arm wrestling with Nobu, Gon said something along the lines of "how can you cry for a friend after the people you've killed ?" with such indignation, he flared his aura enough to win the match. KIllua knowing that he must abolutely not tell gon that pitou is actually doing something nice after the horrors she did to Kite is so telling. The poor boy is so black and white in his visions of stuff, the idea of the monster he spent months hating doing something so selfless after taking away his mentor/replacement dad figure is way too much for him.
There is no black and white vision here. Gon was right in saying that to both Nobu and Pitou. Although in Pitou's case, this was her first instance of ever coming across a feeling called empathy.
Yeah but Pitou isn’t doing this out of kindness she was ordered to
@@disprofundis3477 It's definitely a black and white vision. It ain't that hard to comprehend why murderers or criminals in general can still care abt friends and family and why this is something normal. Gon himself has this type of bias
@@cielrms It's not a black and white perspective from Gon's end. That's a poor take on the rather emotionally intelligent character like Gon. Gon questioning their hypocrisy of not being able to extend their care to the people they have killed, does not mean he can't comprehend how serial killers can feel that emotion at all. Gon knows it, he is just annoyed at this straight up injustice. Don't know how this translates to black and white vision. It's just a misinterpretation of Gon's morality for judging people based on their present actions and behaviour.
@@jolien5858 ordered to by someone she cares deeply for, wether that care is truly her own now, or just a by prodcut of her being a royal guard is part of her being complex as a character.
"imagine we planned to watch the next episode and we see the fucking cheetah" What a great fucking unintentional call lmaoooooo (they are already ahead on patreon so this ain't a spoiler)
Gon lost his purpose in life because of Pitou, how can he face his father now when the only student his father ever had is dead and Gon thinks it's his fault?
Gon thinks he'll only be a real hunter when he finds his father, but he doesn't want to see his father anymore, so what is he living for now?
Longest discussion yet!
yet 😂
until they watch EP 131
I@@simokhaoua9496i find this ep more complex. 131 is a masterpiece for releasing that build complexion and tension
"I miss when we were watching the wolf in the elevators" LMAOOO
Thank you for the Pavle laugh it was the perfect balance to the absolute weight this episode has, easily top 3 episode and reaction paired alongside
Honestly, you guys handled this better than I thought you would.
Looks like Meruem is not the only one oscillating between a monster and a human. Gon and even the Royal Guard are doing it.
There something in your message thats s minor spoiler fyi, unless they are already past that point when this vid was uploaded
The Dragon fly without Zeno because that was a Emitter attack, just like Gon's paper works. Stop if the user pre-set a distance to this or reaches the "destination" that the user sets or stops when that dont have the energy to go any longer( just like when Gon was training with Biskye to make a small ball of nen reach the rock)
And let's not forget that Gon kept just a tiny little bit of innocence in him (that he trusted Pitou was able to heal Kite) even during extreme anger, without which he would have killed Pitou on the spot.
He couldn't have killed pitou right then and there without being in his adult form...remember if gon were to actually attack pitou there, pitou would probably prioritise her life and use her nen on gon and killua, and in that state gon and killua wouldn't even be able to scratch pitou
@@rajdeepdey5080yes he could have since pitou wont stop her ability she can’t take out gon without nen
@@rajdeepdey5080and gon would have also probably kill komugi
@@jolien5858 who said pitou wouldn't use her nen? You think pitou is that stupid to just let gon kill her with her just sitting there, she would've stopped healing komugi to kill gon
@@rajdeepdey5080 kirua talked about it, she wouldn't have time to get her aura out and when Gon started his jajanken, she didn't stop the healing, she was just panicked, and even in this form, Gon is no joke, that jajanken would have kill her on the spot
16:44 you know this episode is full emotion when you take the time to animate the feels of Killua after Gon said one of the most painful phrases to him. It was shocking, but he must answer to his friend that is totally out of mind, taking a breath and gulp for recover his composure, but finally it was too painful for Killua (shown after when he face to Palm and cry inconsolably).
Really sad episode.
Before crying Killua vents it on Youpi lol.
I always enjoy watching from Japan.
By the way, "baka" means horse and deer in Japanese. It means that you are like an animal. It can be a strong insult. Please be careful when using it.
However, if you have a close relationship, you may use it casually. In that case, it's not a big problem. Japanese is difficult.
I may have said too much. please do not worry. I look forward to continuing to post videos.
People need to understand, before this Gon lived a happy life, he is loved for all his life by aunt Mito, he has never truly experienced real pain and real loss. It turns out if you throw kids into trauma inducing situations they have to grow up really quickly and that creates lasting scars on the persona. Children who are forced to mature before they should, often find themselves with a complex web of mental issues to work through, which is depicted on this episode really well. Killua on the other hand is the exact opposite he has known nothing but pain, because of his harsh assassin training thus he has the.... I'm trying to find the right word but let's just go with "tools" or the "capacity" to work with dealing with these issues. Also let's not forget that Killua's family kinda f*** him up, early in the series he has a dead view of the world because of all the trauma he's gone through it's only after meeting Gon he kinda found that spark again.
bisky in episode 89: "one day, you'll leave gon behind to die"
killua was sure that'd end up happening, his self worth relied on how useful he was to gon. he was sure that removing the needle was the solution to their problems. but now, after hearing gon's words, he steps back and leaves him behind
Damn. I didn't think about that. wow
this is false. he stepped out after hearing pitous request for an hour.
@@EziixPked we see later that meleoron took killua out after seeing how sad he was, not to mention the attitude killua has in the next eps regarding gon staying with pitou. it was all intentionally written as killua stepping out and leaving gon alone
@@b_delta9725exactly.... It's something totally different from leaving your friend to die.
He just needed some space to compose himself, at most...
And I believe that I don't even need to discuss that Killua would definitely come back to die with Gon if a fight were to start there between Gon and Pitou.
@@b_delta9725 stil it is not what Bisky was talking about
Regarding Killua knowing about his granpa's ability...a normal person can also see the energy from nen attacks. The nen is invisible only when the nen user applies "In" (not to be confused with "En") to their ability. For example, Hisoka uses In to hide his Bungee Gum, and Kurapika used In to hide his chains when he tied up Uvo. But In can be seen if you use "Gyo" and focus it on your eyes.
日本のファンの間でも、なぜキルアがゼノの能力を知っていたのかが議論になっていました
キルアはゾルディック家にいた時は念の存在を知らず、それならゼノの能力を知っていたというのはおかしな話になるからです
そこで色々と思い返しながらこの問題を考察してみると、グリードアイランド編でキルアがハンター試験を受けに行った際、ついでにキルアは実家に帰ったのではないかという考えに行きつきました
何故ならキルアはハンター試験を合格して、グリードアイランドに戻った際に、ミルキ特製のヨーヨーを持っていたからです
試験を合格したキルアは、兄からヨーヨーを貰って、その際にゼノの念能力を見せてもらった、だからドラゴンダイヴにキルアが気づけたというのが腑に落ちると考えてます
更に考察すると、ネテロとゼノが空から降ってきたときに、ゼノがネテロの百式観音の解説をする回想がありましたよね
あれ、ゼノは一体誰と会話していたのだろうという疑問がありますが、それはヨーヨーを貰いに行った時に、キルアと会話していたのだろうというのが私の結論になります
It might be plot hole. But it can be explained by illumi special nen needle. U can say anything about illumi but u can't say he feels strong emotion for killua. I think illumi has ability to manipulate memory and control some one on subconscious level hance killua leave nanika in jail.
I think it's just a plot hole
things like that could happen in any story
@@user-vq3bd6lw8o that's really interesting, it makes sense too!
Wrong, non-nen users can only see things created with Conjuration. Zeno is an Emitter so only a Nen user could see it.
Loved the theme of this arc
The monster turning to a human
And the human turning to a monster
I’ve been waiting for this for so long 🥹
on 8:20 my only thought was "oh how beautiful and sad it is to witness someone's final moments of laughter". anyway, since your reaction episode 1 I've been waiting for this particular moment, my favorite episode in the show. from now on, you'll start to see a lot of "gon became a monster" takes, and I don't agree with them particularly. I think he's more human than ever, especially because he's showing realistic emotions of a child that has a lot of difficult feelings on his plate to deal with, and he doesn't know how to process every single one of them. truth is, they shouldn't have gone through all that in first place, lacking so many emotional management skills - Gon is suffering, and he doesn't know how to reason his anger and grief together with his merciful nature - and that explains why he's wavering.
Loved their realization of why long episode series like HxH and one piece work 🙌
enjoying these reactions as always 😎
This reaction didn’t disappoint
Like I literally was waiting for it since killua and gon first scene together 😭😭😭
That moment of "IF YOU SWITCH SCENES ISTFG" u r so real for that x'd LOVE how u feel the episodes, not just watch but you FEEL them. Bless u gurls
Gon's attitude can be seen as hypocritical for giving killers like Killua the opportunity to grow, yet he couldn't blame him. He knows the direct victim, Kite, and that changes how he can objectively analyze the situation. Victims of traumatic events can't be expected to empathize with their perpetrators; that's what the police and courts are for, theoretically impartial entities tasked with resolving the matter considering both sides. But here, Gon can't see the bigger picture because the case hits close to home. He didn't know Killua's victims, perhaps why he doesn't make the distinction
I totally agree with u here and I'd like to add that a even better example is how Gon quickly forgave Genthru in Greed Island's arc, even though he was previously VERY mad on him for killing people and messing up his father's game
someone would even say he is as selfish as a .... kid!
if he doesnt like someone he doesnt give af. he will destroy them, he will find a reason to hurt them.
if he likes someone he will forgive almost anything.
if he can gain something he likes or wants from someone he will be forgiving them too (the red haired murderer from greed island , binolt was it?)
@@reignmans I still don't understand why it's so bad to say hypocrite. People ask Gon to have a moral height that no character in his universe has. hxh it's never about black and white or most things that happen are gray
Maybe because hes a kid ? Kids would love criminals for giving them chocolate and treats them nicely, but would get pissed and grumpy if their mothers punish them.
And both Gon and Killua are just kids , you can't judge a kid when they had shitty parents to begin with, especially when kids are capable to change and grow to better people.. exactly like killua : )
@@sweetberryOuOno one is judging him. They're just analyzing Gon's character and throwing in some facts. All of us are less likely to be objective about situations that hurt us and those who we care about
This episode was so well done I feel very bad for both gon and killua
good news is Togashi has officially announced he's working on the manga again
Btw, "Since it means nothing to you" is a mistranslation, what Gon really said was "since this is none of your business". Gon was not saying that Killua has no capacity for caring, but that this wasn't his fight in the first place, which is arguably even more hurtful to Killua who wants to be a part of Gon's journey and support him. He was conforming Killua's worst fears that he does not want or need him right now.
As for Kite, he represents many things. He is the man who saved Gon's life and taught him his first lesson about the way the world works. Gon felt ashamed of his weakness in that moment and it stuck with him throughout the series, he feels a debt to Kite and that he needs to show him that he has now grown strong. Kite changed his life and inspired him to get this far, he is a Hunter who earned Ging's respect, which makes him the ideal Hunter, Gon idolizes him and believes he can make no mistakes, and wishes to become like him in order to feel a sense of self-worth. That's why when Kite ends up that way, Gon has to cope by blaming himself and taking responsibility because that's easier to accept than Kite not being perfect, which would mean he could never become perfect and thus never gain Ging's respect (in his mind at least).
About Ging, you are definitely on point with how he is affecting Gon, the story doesn't go out of its way to tell you directly, but it is absolutely there in the subtext.
God, why do they have to go and mistranslate some of the most crucial lines in the show lol. That's a completely different meaning.
3:27
Killua knowing about “Dragon Dive”:
Never thought about it, but I can think of 2 answers. SPOILERS AHEAD.
First option. You don’t need to know Nen to be able to see it, someone as talented as Killua could have seen it before without understanding what it was, just like Machi seeing Renko’s Nen. Maybe he saw grandpa training, at work or maybe grandpa used to take him on Sunday trips riding “Dragon Head”. Now, this could create another problem, because it would be normal for him to want to learn about this power, but it’s possible that after Illumi planted his needle on Killua, he was just controlled to ignore anything related to Nen, Killua suggested that it was because of the needle that he forgot about Alluka. A good reason for them to do this, would be that they noticed Killua wasn’t going through the path they wanted, so they decided that it was better for him not to learn about Nen and forget about anything related to it so he wouldn’t become independent. After he took off the needle, he was able to remember everything and connect the dots.
Second option. Before deciding what power to develop with Hatsu, he did a lot of research. Just like with the fight between Hisoka and Kastro or Leorio punching Ging, you can see the Nen abilities in a recorded video. So, maybe, when he got his yo-yos from Milluki, he also asked about the abilities of his family members or found some recordings of their training, fights or a “Top 10 best grandpa hits” video. He has a very inquisitive nature, so he would definitely investigate other people’s abilities to come up with a very powerful one.
Anyway, it could be that it was just a plot hole, but I just came up with these ideas on the spot, maybe there are many other options.
I love that discussion so much ^^ I knew they would absolutely love this show and I'm not disappointed can't wait for their reaction to specific moments, especially the Ging scenes 😆
I'm not lying in saying that this is one of the most EPIC moments in anime in general.
The utter silence from y'all as the episode ends 😂 lmao that's good stuff. This episode is incredible.
Would you consider watching Fruits Basket? it's amazing. It's my favorite show of all the time. I am sure you will love itt
Clicked faster than light this is my favorite episode but wasn't expecting it today
Togashi Sensei is crazy genius. I can't think of a scenario where you come to defeat the monster that killed benefactor and find that monster desperately trying to heal a human.
You guys are hilarious. "If I saw the fuckin wolf, I would've thrown something at the screen". That actually made me laugh.
God knows how much I've been waiting for this episode's reaction!
You have finally reached my favorite episode. I been waiting for this since you started the series!
my personal favorit eps in hxh
the king has sat like gon did at the end when playing gungi
Maybe it is intentional or maybe not but it's somewhat iconic to see one evolve into a monster that's willing to kill and the other evolves to someone more human that shows an act of humanity and learns to preserve life.
@@ozzcoremidmx8287It's definitely intentional is this arc, there's a lot of parallels, like Meruem's name being the light that illuminates all but he is shown a new perspective by a girl who can't even see anything but darkness.
Hisoka also in heaven's arena!
@@ozzcoremidmx8287 I think it's intentional. I think Gon's and the King's character arcs in this arc parallel each other, but like in reverse. While Meruem starts as a monster and becomes more and more human, Gon goes in a dark path, losing more and more of his humanity and releasing that "beast/monster" inside him, that's been teased throughout the show.
That’s major spoiler bro
the writer is still writing the show he's getting better but he said he'll take his time, i guess it will take like 5 to 10 years to end the manga, i hope... it's the greatest anime in my opinion
I honestly never realized that part of the reason gon was so angry was because of ging I am so glad I came across this channel it made made me see many things differently things I probably wouldnt have noticed otherwise thank you for such amazing reactions.
I love how you guys really try to break down this anime . HxH behind its battle shonen facade is so a deep and realistic in whatever it wants to show , everyone and everything is so grey in this show as it goes on . I am fascinated by shows that have writing like this .
57:36 Actually a great point about One Piece. Secondary characters have amazing complete stories that enriches greatly the main one. And that is some of the appeal, some stories finishes, others starts and some continue, very entertaining.
one of the best part in here was the silence scenes and Kilua gone at the end of episode while the music started playing.. that makes me so sad
One of my favorite episodes of ALL TIME. And your reaction didn’t disappoint girls! Keep them coming!
lol the reactiong was so good. This arc is art.
i like watching both of u react to this episode, u guys can feel the emotions of this episode, not like others
16:27 The infamous spinning wheel of death from Crunchyroll brings me nothing but anxiety from when I'm immersed in a show
The level of emotions that this chapter manages is impressive. Tension at all times. Gon completely overwhelmed and Pitou demonstrating his evolution as happened to the king with Komugi.
Some people don't understand why Gon does all this for Kite... The fact is that the anime didn't show all the moments he had with him unlike manga❤.
I am really glad I watched your reactions you made me realize that every thing comes from somewhere everything we do has a reason and I realized how truly amazing this show is I completely missed the fact that the reason gon was so angry deep down was ging thank you for giving us these amazing reactions
I think they sould REALLY watch Parasyte, it's a short anime, but the focus is about that "human stuff"
I really like that show ... But I've never been more like "Who's side am i really on , are there even sides" in shows that try to do this than I've been on the later half of the Chimera Ant arc of HxH .
u don't know how much i waited for this ❤
Ging lives rent free in their heads . God damn.
i've been waiting for so long for this episode, the emotional impact was so complex when gon felt conflicted on Pitou's predicament.
I definitely think the relationship between Gon and Kite and its relation to Gon's abandonment issues is quite fair to assume from the show. I've seen many people talk about it. The thing is Kite was more of a dad figure to Gon than Ging ever was too and Gon's character is more about how Ging being absent shapes his character and how he interacts with other people than really what he feels about Ging. Ging just needs to stay a bit mysterious and at the same time ever-present for this to work. The idea Gon has of Ging is more important than what it would actually be like to know more about him. I think that's also how HxH does thing. Characters are always shaped by their past and ideas but not completely defined by them. Like Killua and the abuse or Kurapika and his clan, we don't need to know exactly how it happened to know it happened and impacts them to this day even if they are not the same person anymore.
Even though there are gonna be so many incredible moments in this arc, I can't wait for their reaction to THAT punch
I've been waiting for this reaction since you started this anime ❤
Gon's descent into an animalistic, base creature. And Meruem evolving and learning about his humanity. The parallel lines.
Kite didn't just tell Gon why his father left him, he was the one that told him that he has a father in the first place and is still alive, Kite literally changed Gon's life and impacted him in ways that no one had ever done before. Also, Kite was like a father figure to Gon, since Gon never had that in his life. So yeah, Kite is really that important to Gon.
The first mistake of the 2011 versione was not showing Kite in the first episode, the second one was the show making Gon not even remember him. In the manga after they meet, Gon doesn’t forget Kite and mentions him throughout the story more than once. Unlucky
@@koenma932that's called storytelling lil bro. Write your own story without "mistakes" if you are so smart.
@@marodonthemorone I don’t need to, the manga did it right, 2011 had to simply adapt
@@marodonthemoroneread the manga lil bro
@@morganadays3530 first, why should I read it when the anime exists? Anime is superior medium, not manga. They changed it because author asked to, Kite clearly was never that important to Gon before his death.
Man I've waited the whole series for that, this episode is pure art 🥲
People hard pressed on a goal tend to push themselves into isolation.
...or people who're grieving or depressed 😥
Just to give some numbers, Pitou alone has killed around 530K people in 2 months 😅
The answer to the question: How was Killua able to see Nen when he was young? The answer is simple because it has been said in many episodes that a person who is naturally gifted can use Nen and see it without realizing it. For example, Gon was able to use Zetsu before he knew anything about Nen, and also Gon was able to He felt and see Hisoka's aura during the Hunter Exam, and Killua was also able to see and feel Illumi and Zushi's aura. As for the most clear answer, at the beginning of the episodes of the ant arc, when Buckle was fighting with the spider ant Pike, Pike was able to see and hold the nen arrow of Buckle and also Zazan, despite their lack of knowledge of nen at that time, and the rest of the ants were unable to see the nen arrow, and Colt was able to come up with the answer that they had the abilities. Only talented people can see this aura, so Killua was obvious to see Nen when he was young, but he thought it was a normal ability, like his ability that replicates his form when he fights someone
Kurapika also dodged his trainers attack in the forest too...
Great explanation but honestly to me it's simple. Zeno told him stories, he just saw it in action and it clicked
Tbh I never really cared much for trying to explain this inconsistency away because it honestly doesn't change anything, even if Killua didn't recognize Dragon Dive he would have still been later than Gon in realizing the situation, and eventually would have met Zeno anyway and put things together the same way.
It's just a plot hole bro, don't need to write a tesis to justify. It's ok 👍🏼
@@jbriggs06that scene were filler btw. We never saw how Kurapika met his teacher in manga
The eras concept shirt is 👌🏽
I am so happy to see your reaction, you never disappoint, you are so smart
HERE IT IS the ep that makes all the HH fans love kilua more than gon
