I still don't get why Phinks decided to wear that pharaoh thing to "revea" his disguise...he just looks like a tool :P

But f**k yeah, he killed Dalzollene in an awesome way.

I loved Uvo's rage too haha, he headbutted the rest of the wall in order to walk into the other room

^ aha, k~

As for the episode, I'm unsure about my feelings on the filler/changes, as well as shizuku's and kurapika's VA's expressiveness. (I like that kurapika's is more so than the 1999 one, but I really don't know whether I think it's overdoing it a tad or not... and it seems like she's planning on keeping at it from last ep)
...and does MH really like feitan or something?

and I forgot why I liked uvo so much, this ep was a nice reminder. x3

Really interesting episode this week. The Phantom Troupe really is a brutal gang of criminals, as evidenced by what Feitan and Phinx did to those two guys in this week's episode. The show's gotten way more violent and intense ever since they've been introduced! And I love it! Chrollo most be seriously strong if Hisoka's getting all aroused just by thinking about fighting him! XD Hopefully that fight happens someday. And now it looks like Kurapika and Uvogin are on a collision course! Hopefully they have at it next week!

Nice to see the Phantom Troupe in mafia suits.
The Shadow Beasts are nothing at all.

Uvogin finally got released... and cannot wait for another confrontation with Kurapika.
Can't wait to see the conspiracy plan of Hisoka and Kurapika to happen.

Here's the movie's trailer:


On Topic:
This episode had lots of OSTs, they jump from one to another, but I got used to them and they're really amazing.
I also kinda forgot that Phinx wore that Pharaoh hat (I was surprised that there was a guy like this when comparing the Ryodan's meeting with the old version).
Anyway another great episode this week.

Well, another nice episode. This adaption became really good, since the heavens arena arc.

Next may be the best yet, if it goes far enough. Still my most favourite scene in the manga.

In the original series, they were slightly able to torture Uvo. That sword didn't broke, they were able to push it inside his body from the wound in Uvo's shoulder.

I had thought that they censored that torture scene until I saw the death scene of the boss. What is going on? Why doesn't this show match up with the original series?

Because in the manga, Dalzollene was never able to penetrate Uvo's skin

It doesn't match up because it strives to follow the content of the manga, whilst the older one altered it to the liking of the producers.

HxH, oh how I missed you! Why do the episodes go so fast. ;w;

I was laughing so hard at Nobunaga stuck in the bag XD and Uvo's rage! That was impressive. I like the small fillers and changes; as much as I love the old series these work well too, if not better. The abandoned fairground was a weird addition but a cool place for Kurapika and Hisoka to meet up, it's just Hiso's style. I loved the insert with Shalnark's ability too, though that's just 'cause I love Shalnark. I laughed really loudly afterwards when the guy dropped dead and it just cuts to him smiling like, "lol you thought I was cute."

It was an amazing episode and well worth the wait. I don't see how people are still complaining about it not living up to the old series. I love the old series, this, and the manga... they're all brilliant, and honestly now the soundtrack has improved and the censorship is gone, this adaption is perfect, seriously.

The shot of Phinks taking out Dalzollene had some great cinematography with the blood and such.

I also loved how Madhouse changed where Kurapika and Hisoka met up to an abandoned amusement park/carnival. The creepy vibe fits well with our Pedoclown. Seriously Madhouse is hitting it out of the park with this series, it also helps how they have GREAT source material to work off of.

In my opinion I think Madhouse just needed to get a feel for the pacing/style of how they wanted to adapt this series with the Hunter Exam which is why compared to Heavens Arena and the Yorknew Arc, the Hunter Exam seems lackluster. But they have a good routine going now and we are in the good shit : P

An excellent episode. Nobunaga scene with Machi makes me laugh.
I really like the abandoned theme park scene. It's really creepy and suits Hisoka. I love filler for Shalnark too.

there is also another new look for the hunterpedia.

Woah, some stuff really felt fresh there. In the original, Kurapika was actually able to make Uvogin lose consciousness by tightening his chains, guess that didn't happen XP and I like the amusement park addition as well, Mad House is quite creative : D also loved the punch scene, in the original it just showed a shaking screen but I'm unsure if the scene felt a bit rushed. Can't wait for the next EPIC developments!

meh, I didn't like many things like the filler shadow beasts moments and ryodan moments although some made everything clearer , most of the soundtrack wasn't good and the waste of time recap after the break wasn't needed. They also changed most of what that sword guy did in the manga, like thrusting the sword in the opening near his neck but that's okay, they already showed so much gore I don't want to see this show getting cancelled and also his role, he was the one that noticed the others so that they escape

@Shaduge,

He didn't do a thrust like in the manga and swung the sword down instead, but the spot he hit was the same, not onto the wound :)

lol their always funny friends in the hunterpedia.

Kurapika continues to be amazing sword couldnt scratch Uva, but Kurapika's powerful punch managed to, awesome. The best scene was the whole amusement park one, something about just the use of the music, the imagery, and just the plot made it really memorable to me team up please! I wanna see them take down lots of these phantom troupe members.

In the manga, Hisoka's lines always end with Hearts, Spades, Clubs or Diamonds, so it's not a love heart I guess, I have no idea what it's supposed to mean and I don't think there's a way of showing it in anime since there's barely any text :P


But srlsy your name is Unknown can't you find the typo in that very screenshot! >.< nobody noticed

I noticed, but I don't think it's a big deal. On another note, I took at the language chart of HxH and translated the message to Japanese, I don't understand Japanese that good but I understood about the meeting, the funny part is that in the title Hisoka writes "Yakosoku da, Kori", Yaksoku da= It's a promise or arrangement or something like that, Kori = obviously Kurapika. :P Which shows how much of a creeper Hisoka is, in addition to the heart, and the heart is just Hisoka being Hisoka.
