Ayo…. 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

Btw you can sense people far away with En, but En is actually pretty hard to do unless you’re a Nen master or train it specifically (or born a Royal Guard like Pitou lol). Zeno has extraordinary En (300 m) for a human, Kite had great En (50 m), but even Nobunaga who is a good Nen user has only 4 m En, some other characters have 10 m - 15 m En, and some Nen users can’t even use it. Also it’s a very draining technique as Zeno said in Yorknew.

Sasha

Ending conversation started going insanely sussy. I even thought "edgerunner" would make a comeback.

Sasha

True. But I really hated her when Gon turned her down and went berserk. That was too much but before and after that she is best girl.

Sasha

Funniest thing is that octopus actually looks like Brig.

Sasha

Cannon's face cannot lie. Everytime Carter's new favorite character is on the screen he has the facial expression of utter disgust.

Ramennn

I just remembered when Knov said about when facing the unknown, people tend to lose perspective. Anyways, almost thereeeeeeee ^__^

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

Yeah, but it's not really up for interpretation, they were specifically talking about En, that's the thing. There was nothing vague or broad being talked about the two characters that could be left up for interpretation, the dialogue went basically like: "It sucks that we have to use my En instead of yours, Pitou, as mine is not as effective". They were not talking about strenght, they were not talking about aura output or power, they were purely talking about EN. Killua literally can't use En, it's a weakness of him. Do you think he is weak? Do you think his power is "nothing" compared to Gon's, considering the latter can at least use En to some extent? One character having a more effective En than another is not necessarily a clear indicator of the first being stronger than the latter.

Maraka

@Shiro I think Kite was referring to Killua's aura intent, which is what got him detected. BUT you are right on Zestu not being an undetectable power! There was also an instance when Hisoka was able to notice Kalluto spying on him even though he was using Zetsu (Machi even told Kalluto that his Zetsu was perfect but that Hisoka was being extra persepctive since his last fight with Gon and Killua). Zetsu is not full proof for sure, but it would be still be dumb for someone not to use it when they're on an infiltrating mission, when else would you use it then lol

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

I feel that he just really likes HxH and is more hooked on it than with any other show.

ffltscat

I feel like Jack is talking more than before. Did he get a mic or smth? I'd love to hear more from him.

ffltscat

Wow Brig W take on Morel's fight. "Trash Taste" had exact the same take on these fights in their recent upload rating top ranked animes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oduDmZv9iJY

celery

Ikalgos such a cutie I love him sm

leah

no you

leah

bro we gotta get six eps a week from here on out... we're less than 10 away from the peakest of all peak

Mysterious Figure

dont worry Cannon has looked worse XD

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

@Shiro I actually was thinking about that as well, and you're right, but according to that same logic they would also instantly notice if a big aura just entered the palace out of nowhere considering there were only like 9 people in total in the palace. It's not like in Heavens Arena where there were dozens if not hundreds of nen users, so a single nen user can blend in. That said, it's true that if he were using Zetsu and stopped, even if for a couple of seconds just to use an ability, they should've noticed him considering how Pitou was able to sense Kite and the crew from like 3 miles away without using En, so Knov without Zetzu would be instantly caught. In conclusion, I feel like this has to be a mistake in the writing, because him entering the palace without Zetsu should be impossible, but it should also be impossible for him to stop his Zetsu without being noticed, unless he had a way to use his abilities without deactivating Zetsu.

ssj4rit

You always look good dw

Christina Laegel

🤣 it’s not that bad don’t worry. Could be worse lmao

ssj4rit

@Shiro (Spoilers) Yeah so far only Tserriednich has been able to use an ability while in Zetsu. However based on Uvogin’s explanation that no abilities can be used if a user is in Zetsu, it feels like a clear contradiction. It’s basically like if someone is able to heat up eggs on a stove when you turn the stove off. The fire is blocked so the heat shouldn’t come, but somehow it does. Tserriednich is basically doing that which is rule breaking, but given Theta calls this out I think there will probably be some explanation for it that will be interesting to see.

Shiro

@ssj4rit (manga spoilers) I don't remember much from the manga since it has been a while since I last read these chapters, but isn't what you mentioned Terror sandwich's Nen ability? If that is the case, wouldn't it only work for him? Though I must confess I don't remember him using Nen during Zetsu, but I do remember he could freeze time or skip ahead in time, something like that...🤔

Shiro

@Gabriel, there is another thread in the comments section that is discussing the same thing, and @Maraka suggested Knov may be going in and out of Zetsu to which I replied the following (I will paste my comment here as well) - if I remember correctly in Heaven's Arena, when Killua goes to meet Kastro, he uses Zetsu when he enters the floor where Kastro's room is, and Kastro is able to detect Killua and I think he tells Killua something like whenever someone with a strong aura goes into Zetsu, it is natural to feel nervous. Assuming Knov also has a strong aura, wouldn't his switching back and forth from Zetsu alert the royal guards? Moreover, why would he go into Zetsu if there is no En being used in the first place? I think En is capable of capturing both Zetsu and non-Zetsu, so would it make sense to go into Zetsu? (I may be thinking too much into this😂) But you are right, he was in an immensely stressful situation, whether he was in Zetsu or not!

Shiro

@Maraka, however, if I remember correctly in Heaven's Arena, when Killua goes to meet Kastro, he uses Zetsu when he enters the floor where Kastro's room is, and Kastro is able to detect Killua and I think he tells Killua something like whenever someone with a strong aura goes into Zetsu, it is natural to feel nervous. Assuming Knov also has a strong aura, wouldn't his switching back and forth from Zetsu alert the royal guards? Moreover, why would he go into Zetsu if there is no En being used in the first place? I think En is capable of capturing both Zetsu and non-Zetsu, so would it make sense to go into Zetsu? (I may be thinking too much into this😂)

McKay Carter

The hate continues

McKay Carter

Carter did me so dirty in this thumbnail holy

ssj4rit

Yeah and meanwhile Meleoron sees the darkness in Gon, saying there’s a monster within him a few eps ago. (He’s not the first to say this too) “The brightest light casts the darkest shadow” (Berserk greatness)

ssj4rit

@Shiro I agree with you, however (manga spoilers below) It seems Tserriednich can use his ability while in Zetsu, so not necessarily true. However even Theta finds this impossible so there will probably be some explanation provided in 100 years when the manga returns. But yeah 99% of Nen users can’t use their ability in Zetsu.

Schwifty_Ant

Like I said it all comes down to how you took the word effective I was just giving my interpretation

ssj4rit

He says his En isn’t as effective as Pitou’s, not his aura or power. Basically Pouf was using En but it only went up to the top of the stairs, while Pitou can enshroud the entire palace.

ssj4rit

Togashi predicted Epstein’s island damn

Gabriel Dent

Not controversial. It's just the truth

Schwifty_Ant

Go to the 34 minute mark on the last video and pouf states it’s nowhere as effective ig that could mean its range but idk it all goes down to interpretation

Schwifty_Ant

If I’m right I think when she starts healing the kings arm

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

Usually, but not always. When Gon and Killua were tailing Nobunaga and Machi, they were using Zetsu and yet nothing in their body indicated that. The thing is, why wouldn't he use Zetsu? I just can't think of a good reason as to why he wouldn't conceal his presence when literally infiltrating the enemy's base. It just woulnd't make a lot of sense.

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

Omg! how can you say that? You're so gross (she is, though).

Dobriv

Yeah I don't think he was using zetsu. There's usually a faded glow around their bodies when using zetsu and it doesn't show on knov

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

I'm not even claiming that Pitou ISN'T stronger than Pouf, just saying that we simply don't have enough information in order to claim that Pitou is significantly stronger than Pouf.

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

Multiple times? There has only been one time that Pitou has been mentioned to be stronger, and by a character that wasn't even in East Gorteau or the mission so how would they know? I can't name the character because it would be a spoiler. And yes, it has been mentioned that Pitou's En is the largest, but that doesn't necessarily mean she is considerably stronger. I mean, Killua literally can't use En, that doesn't mean he is not strong and talented as hell, and is not like he is weaker than Gon just because the latter has better En. For all we know Pitou might have a lager En than even the King, but that wouldn't mean she is stronger than him.

Darren

you guys should try watching to your eternity

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

when did he state that it's nothing compared to Pitou's?

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

He probably just, you know, briefly deactivated his zetsu to use the ability? I just don't see why he wouldn't be using it given the circumstances. But regardless, he was in a very stressful situation nonetheless.

em1uni

Controversial: Palm is a baddie 🤷‍♀️

em1uni

Pouf literally says his en isn’t as strong as Pitou’s in the episode where the king rips his arm off

Maraka

@ingkoopa98 and @Shiro Yes, he definitely stopped using Zetsu while creating the three exits, but that doesn't mean he wasn't using it for the rest of the time haha To lace the analogy that I used above, just because you put on a coat for a few second on three different occasion doesn't mean you won't be freezing cold when staying in a blizzard for an extended period of time

celery

Please 😭

Kyosuke Kagami

Bizeff: "ok, you can go, I'm done with you now" had me IRL loling

Bandit

Yall probably didn’t notice but Killua called Gon light back then but now, after meeting Ikalgo and learning it’s okay for him to have friends as a killer, he finally became the light he sought to find which is why he started glowing in Ikalgos eyes❤️🤧 Killua is now someone else’s light

SoClose

Knov realizing the 2 boys are absolutely batshit insane always makes me laugh.

Brandon Diaz

ikalgo the goat

Keiji

Palm best girl

kuza

next week 😈

Extrasauce

Knov’s ability was so op they had to nerf him with PTSD 😭 💀

Shiro

But was he in Zetsu though? How could he have used his Hatsu (setting up portals) if he was in a state of Zetsu? When Kurapika captured Uvogin using Chain Jail and forced him in a state of Zetsu, Uvogin was unable to muster any aura. So how could Knov use Nen if he was in a state of Zetsu?

Shiro

You are right @kingkoopa98, how could Knov be able to use his abilities if he was using Zetsu? Wouldn't that nullify his aura??

Schwifty_Ant

Another thing to point out is that wasn’t even pitous aura it was pouf’s and he stated it was nothing compared to pitou’s which is crazy to think about what knov would have felt if he saw pitou’s aura

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

I feel like you are underrating Knov a bit because of his breakdown, but put yourselves in his shoes: he was completely by himself in the enemy's base, in a state of zetsu (completely vulnerable), probably less than a hundred feet from the most powerful entities that he has ever known, and with the constant fear of Pitou's En returning and not being fast enough to escape, which becomes a more likely possibility the closer he gets to them. He was in a high risk, highly stressful situation, and coming so close to Pouf's En served as a remainder of the danger he was in.

Cookie

Excited for next weekend

Nrock23

Nah they point out multiple times Pitou has the best and biggest En from the ants. That’s why is always covering the whole palace in it to watch out over it

Gabriel Machuca Wegermann

I mean, who knows? It's not like Pouf is less malicious than Pitou, probably the contrary, and nothing indicates that pouf has a weaker aura than Pitou.

Shiv Bhakta

WOOOO

ssj4rit

He came back later to redo all the art in the volume editions though, some of the pages are truly beautiful esp in second half

John

This, and because Knov was in Zetsu, he becomes 100x more vulnerable which amplifies the fear he was feeling.

Nrock23

Yeah the Red En is Pitou and the Purple/Blue en was Pouf so Knov didn't even feel the menacing en of pitou like Gon, Killiua, and Palm did. if he would've seen that he probably would have had a heart attack right then and there lol

kiiturii

dude I love knov so much, such a great character

JayPierlis

Sadly not. But all this was before ppl started review bombing shows anyway

Pam

Really? None of the PT arc is in top 10?? Not even lacrimosa ep what?

Pam

It's so realistic on how some soldiers feel in wars I guess and how they don't want to keep going but some don't have options, but also on how not everything goes according to the plan, unexpected things can happen in anycase specially war missions, I just find it very reasonable and realistic

Pam

Yes is like a torch that is pass along, when someone changes another is soo humane and cute 💛😁

Nrock23

You guys need to get some new subtitles cause these aren't the official ones lol, they saying different shit

kai

i appreciate knov sm cause baby i wouldve been scared asf and said fuck them portals

Ash

LOOOOOL

Izaya

Palm still needs the crystal ball to see the target but right now all she needs to do is make eye contact with the Royal guard and dip so she can see them at anytime back at base. She doesn’t need the crystal ball right now

Laura 🦋

LMAOO IT IS BRIGG 😂😂😭😭 that’s foul

Kyle

jackson the most correct once again

Poragami

wtf

kingkoopa98

But Knov used his Hatsu when he killed the Ant and when he placed the portal right? Shouldn't he not be able to use his Hatsu when he is using Zetsu? Or was he switching back and forth between them?

Amine Belhoucine

I can't wait for the next part the waiting is torture please upload more

Joydan Bri’an

if i was knov i wouldn’t have even made it to the stairs and he took that ant down with the quickness. when i first watched that episode, everything was clenched lmao i was nervous for him.

Laura 🦋

“he has his own nasty music” 😂 he certainly does, cannon

T.Yaseen

😭💀

Masta Jags

💀

Michael H

@Wiame That’s my bad. The comments hadn’t refreshed when I replied, so I didn’t see that you already clarified. Somebody made a great point further up that Knov was also using Zetsu when he saw that En, so he was pretty much as defenseless as you can be at the time.

Empyral

so am I

T.Yaseen

Peak is coming

Pitou

Cause, you weren't there to stop me, boo! 💔🥺

Michael H

Togashi was having major health problems during this arc, so he relied heavily on his assistants for some parts, which is why, while this arc rules, it is one of the most uneven of the series.

Michael H

This is definitely the best point regarding Knov and the en. Makes such a huge difference him seeing it while using Zetsu.

y are you mad

@Wiame oh ok cool and yeah i can agree with that 100%. I just want their power levels etc. to still be a surprise for first-time viewers. :)

Wiame

Guys I’m Talking about HIS EN 😭😭

kivu_king

to be fair knov was not protected by nen cause he was in perma stealth zetsu mode, he was basically naked, while gon and killua were defending themselves even if they were overwhelmed

Michael H

Do we know that Pouf is the weakest?

HeavenlyR

They clowned him for Killua saying that none of them could beat Pitou because of her aura, they were still right Knov for example could kill Pitou if he caught her off guard with his portal and took her head. People seem to think Knov lost his will because he saw how powerful the aura was but he actually lost his will because he saw how evil the aura was, which was most likely the most evil of the royal guard and a different one from what Killua saw.

Wiame

Noo my bad i didn't clarify , i was just talking about his En not his overall power . he said it in the previous episode that his En is nowhere effective as Pitou's *

HeavenlyR

Knov breaks down because of how evil the aura is not because how powerful it is. Pouf might be weaker but is also probably the most evil of the three

Maraka

I just know that next week will leave you edged to the max, and not for the same reason lol Cool thing to know regarding Knov's breakdown is that the whole time of his infiltration, he was using Zetsu, which nullifies completely your aura. Remember at the start of heaven's arena, when Killua and Gon were overwhelmed and frozen by Hisoka's NEN barrier? Well it's because, when you don't have it around you, you're simply defenseless, like a naked child in a blizzard (you can still get overwhelmed without zetsu, depending on the strength of your opponent's NEN, and your own mental state). So yeah, Knov was twice as vulnerable at that moment, but it still makes Gon and Killua's will to fight very impressive. Glad you noticed that Morel is really practicing what he's preaching. I find it funny that, for such a big buff dude, his battles and the way he fights mostly rely on strategy and NEN adaptation. I also agree that his last battle was a bit disappointing in terms of stakes at least. It seems like Togashi had better plans for Leol and didn't really know how to conclude his character. But still, I will always enjoy myself in a Hunter x Hunter battle not only because I love to see the different ways NEN can be utilised, but also because of their pace and structure. We all know by now the famous trope that is 'Anime Time' and how you'll hear every character's thoughts in a matter of seconds irl. I'm used to it and like it when it's well done. I mean, heck, if Death Note managed to make interesting a tennis match just being L and Light's inner monologue, I can handle it. The only thing I require it for their thoughts to actually give us real infos, I hate when they just repeat what they're thinking but in a slightly different way lol Same thing goes for when the characters stop fighting to talk. If the dialogue's productive, I'm good. But if it's just for punny lines or empty insults, it just bores me (Naruto does that a lot, I started rewatching it and oh my God how frustrating it was, without even mentioning the countless flashback insertions). I can't wait for next week and to hear your opinion on not only the upcoming events, but also how they're presented. Won't say more :)

y are you mad

How do you know that pouf is the weakest, judging from what we have seen up until now? We have not seen any of these three go all-out in a fight, so this is just a baseless claim. I could go more in detail about whether I agree or not, but that would just result in spoiling things^^

Shiro

Knov's breakdown was tough, and yes, it gives us a perspective on the determination of Gon and Killua. Also, Killua is Ikalgo's 'light' just as Gon is his 'light' (that is what he says to Gon in episode 85 I think). Such a character development for Killua from a cold assassin to a fearless hunter with a warm heart

Antique-Item

Yall really need to appreciate the build up

LK

I really feel for Knov. With his reflective and cautious personality, it makes sense that he broke down. The plan practically hinges on him being able to pull this off, and he knew what would be at stake if he failed. And he was alone. In a palace of beings probably hundreds times stronger than him, and Pitou’s En could’ve reactivated at any moment. I’d break down too 😭

McKay Carter

Why’d you kill Kite

Wiame

idk if you noticed but it was Pouf's nen because Pitou was healing the king (his nen is purple while Pitou's is red) . and let's not forget that Pouf is the weakest . if Knov felt Pitou or Youpi's En he'll be suicidal. unlucky for Palm she got to the stairs the second Pitou activated her En again

Mia Malvik

this was so satisfying on the second watch lol

Mia Malvik

Killua needs to drop the ab routine

Mia Malvik

Water looks blue because it absorbs red and yellow light, but scatters the blues on the colour spectrum. Particles in the water also plays a part! But you're probably right about why it's orange here

y are you mad

Pitou

No, you absolutely nailed it!

DAI

you guys remember when Killua met Knov and Molau for the first time? Killua was in shock of how strong Pitou's aura was and told big 3 that they won't even be able to reach the king. Then Molau told him not to estimate the result of the NEN battle based on the aura, and Knov jokingly cheesed him like "Stop it Molau, he is just a child." This sequence of Knov hits differently if you factor in that moment too and also realize how determined Gon and Killua is.

OldeSkoole

Remember when Knov, Morel and Netero first showed up? Knov and Morel were like clowning Killua for feeling defeated by Pitou's aura, now Knov gets a taste of royal guard aura and breaks down even harder than Killua did.

y are you mad

This is not a spoiler since all the information for this was already said in the previous episode. But knov actually saw poufs en and not pitous because she said she can't use en while healing and pouf then said that he will keep an eye on the area with his range-wise inferior en (and the color of the en was purple and not red). so maybe gon and killua would think differently about fighting them if they saw poufs en but that's just speculation on my end.

Elijah Slocombe

knov might be damian lillard

y are you mad

nice uploads tho!

ssj4rit

Morel chads stay winning
