Wow that was an incredible episode. I think that the placement of Gyro's flashback was an improvement as it felt more related to the events occurring at this time. I was a little confused though,...

Departure 4 Lyf yo.

The bees aren't exactly practical means of combat against a Chimera Ant. They are too slow and too weak. She would be long dead before they could do anything.

If you recall in the Exam arc, her...

The attacking of the Ants is shown when Welfin remembers his original identity. Get your facts straight Jam1 you are embarrassing yourself now with these crackpot reasonings for why Madhouse version...

How are they modifying the story? Everything they are showing is in line with the manga.
They are simply filling in the gaps of the manga, showing the stuff Togashi chose to leave off-screen.
I see...

That is exactly right. The name Zaikahal proves this as it references a MUCH later scene.

Seeing Gyro's commanders was my highlight especially knowing
who they become, aka my homeboys Ikalgo and Welfin

Also Pokkle and Ponzu relationship is well developed and it makes sense why they...

Loved this episode, really loving the deeper look at Gyro's army. Anyone else notice the two soldiers at the end?
Mr Eyebrows and his good friend Zaquail? ;) aka.
Ikalgo and Welfin

Not only did...

Gon will turn evil and be final villain for World Tree to fight

I think they look amazing

I read volume 30 in English, the translation of Meruem's final moments made me cry. So beautiful. Kudos Viz on a brilliant job done.

It will be Gon.

I definitely feel that Gon's determination is evident an strongly conveyed in Madhouse's adaptation.
Gon owes it to both Kite and Ging to give it his all.
Kite saved him and earned the respect of...

Gon's mother is the World Tree.

Yes I think it is being done very well.

I'd be interested to see it. But I'm not sure it is necessary considering how great the original was.
It is a different case to HxH which had a terrible first anime series and needed a second take.

I would love to hear Gyro famous words to Welfin. I am enjoying the expansive filler, it really adds to the series in a positive way.
That soldier certainly reminded me of him especially his...

So really I'm the only one who thought Gyro's soldier was
Welfin?

Did anyone else think that the human soldier was actually
Welfin
The mention of Gyro got me very excited. Overall a great episode that expands greatly upon the manga.
I am enjoying the bond...

I never understood the apparent 'lack of females' claim. To me some of the most well-written characters in the series are female. Also every single arc features at least one female character that is...

1999 had its own heart, it was not Hunter x Hunter as envisioned by Yoshihiro Togashi.
It was Hunter x Hunter as envisioned by Kazuhiro Furuhashi.

There are so many reasons why I do not like this...

I tend to dislike characters being put on buses, but for the most part have come to accept it is part of Togashi's style.
I still miss Genthru so very badly! Melody too!!

I like characters with a unique look to them, my favourites character designs in Hunter x Hunter are:
- Gon
- Hisoka
- Illumi
- Kite (both forms)
- Ikalgo
- Neferpitou
- Genthru
- Colt
-...

What the heck never seen that animal before.

Does anyone else think it is weird that Bloster isn't red? I mean.. he is like a lobster right?

Back when they weren't ranking TOP 10! ;)
Now they are given more slack from NTV as to what content they air.

What an amazing episode. The relationship with Kite is developing before our eyes and I'm loving it.
The parts with Kurt and Reina cut my deep, Madhouse made it even more sadder! Now how will they...

I'll put it plainly and simply, the Ant arc is about what is means to be human, what it means to have an identity and what it means to feel.
All of these are explored through out the arc with pretty...

Originally look like ants but so much crossing of genes creates different appearance for them.

It is amazing and should never change

Because he didnt know what his aura was. He didnt have any idea what power he had until getting information from Pokkle.

I think it is the best arc in the series and disagree with everything in OP

This is amazing, bring on the Ants!

After sleeping on it, I actually like it better. I was optimistic yesterday, now I am sure it will be good.

I actually think we will see the Whale Island flash back again when Gon thinks about it...

The same relationship is still possible to be established in the coming weeks. Kite has always been Gon's savior and even in this episode albeit filler saves him AGAIN.
I think that they are still...

I think that they will establish it as Kite is the one who always protected Gon even as a child while Ging did not. The same relationship as manga can be established in the coming weeks. Just give it...

One other thing I want to say. I didn't like how Gon, Kil an Kite all just assumed that everything that pretty much ever happened to them was some master plan from Ging. It felt too much... 'Ging...

I think that the encounter did not need to be changed at all. It could have simply been as shown in the manga but instead Gon already knows who Kite is. I feel that this adaptation is trying to make...

I must say though

When Kite dies, why would Gon be as sad as he is in the manga? In the manga Kite is more of a father to him than Ging ever was. I feel that this is a mistake in this adaptation.

I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed this episode and the way Kite was portrayed.
I have mixed feelings on the alteration that Kite did not reveal the truth of Ging to Gon as a child.
But I still...

The hunting has been done!

New video for opening, same song.

Toriko anime has good ratings because it is paired with One Piece and uses popularity of One Piece to become famous

Kite is the best, end of story.

Mamoru Hosoda the guy who made Summer Wars & Wolf CHildren (also Digimon and One Piece movies) got asked if he will make a Hunter x HUnter movie in interview his responses are interesting...

That is the best, I love Departure it suits the entire series.

If you look carefully you see that something try to attack Gon and Killua but Kite raises his rifle to save. So I think that a wild animal will appear to attack which will be reminiscent of Gon...

For the most part yes, but there are a number of differences.

Togashi frankly doesn't care about gender at all. In fact he often challenges the notion. Often instinctively we feel bad/digust to see a woman attacked or injured, it is just human nature and...

Come on mousiehamster are you really still going to claim that Nippon adaptation was better and that Madhouse version sucks?
How can you honestly say that after the 75 episodes of greatness we have...
