I'm really liking it!! I love how chaotic all the fights. Nothing went as planned, and everyone having to improvise as fights spill over into other encounters is pretty awesome.

Also, 'Menthuthuyoupi' is quite the name

Episode 124... wow we're 30 minutes into the assault! Time flies when you're having fun!

I haven't mentioned Ikalgo, but his little side adventure has been kinda cool. I just wish it didn't take up so much time to show.

thoroughly agree with this. i never actually disliked an ikalgo scene, but god they took up a lot of time!

I wouldn't even know where to start guessing, besides like maybe guessing that the 3 royal guards will die (I could actually see Yupei surviving, or even see him and Pouf fighting). I feel like everything else is so up in the air, it's almost like anything is possible still.

I have to say, this 100 Palm Bodhisattva thing Netero has is extremely cool!

Episode 126.... wow. This fight between the king and Netero had some great animation. At times beautiful and horrifying. I got some Junji Ito vibes from some of the scenes there. The only thing that dampens this is that obviously Meruem survives all of that, perhaps with a "heh, nice one gramps" line.

Netero v Meruem is a top-tier anime fight. Honestly might be the peak of the entire show as well.

I remember I was wanting to get to Gon and Pitou one night, but it was 4am and I had like 6 episodes left to get to it... decided "Fuck it" and stayed up.

I ended up just watching the rest of the arc and called into work the next day.

Worth it.

Best episode is very, very difficult to pin down, but it's definitely somewhere around this range.

Personally I have to say 135. For reasons.

Man I hated that part. So much build up in Knuckle's arc for him to flush it all down at the end if the fight. I hate how Togashi has to put an anti-climax at the end of everything even when that's not good writing.

I think a lot of the encounters in the later half of this arc have been great, but this one was particularly amazing. I think Chimera Ant will easily be my favorite HxH arc if it sticks the landing. Yeah sure the training section in the middle sorta sucked, but theres been a lot of good before and after that.

idk man i thought it made total sense if you look at knuckle as a guy. he was hoping he could reach an understanding with the ants before the mission even started

i really like the way things work out with knuckle. guy kinda seems like a meathead but his special ability is super-bizarre and involves trickery/deception, and his biggest moments come not from violence but from humanity

tbh a lot of HxH, especially the chimera ant arc, works that way though

Episode 127:

Wow, they're really trying to get me to believe Meruem is dead... think I'm stupid or something? No way I'm believing that. That "body" is either a cocoon or a weird statue or he shed his skin or something. No matter how awesome it would be that he actually did die there, I'm not falling for it!

It is really interesting to see this intense, almost cold-blooded side of Gon. This is not something we've seen before, but of course none of Gon's friends were ever in the condition that Kite was. This kind of anger, I suppose, is exactly what I imagine would be needed to get Gon transform like he does. Soon, I think it's going to happen soon....

gon is kind of amoral. he reminded me a lot of young goku, who was just obsessed with fighting
