Good episode. Lots of funny Kirua's reactions. Especially was funny to see him taking 'Red Pepper Chalange'! xD
And lol at the end part... seems that poor cub has received a little bit too much Nen xD

I agree. Killua is so cute, especially how he reacts. But i thought the foxbear cub's dad had the funniest reaction.

he's killed many
trained at a young age
took the hunters test and would have passed
learned the powers of nen
but even killua can't defeat the GREAT "RED PEPPER CHALLENGE" *DUH DUH DUUUHHH*

Very nice episode. :) I really liked the whole atmosphere of it and everything!

... But WHAT!? Killua doesn't like red pepper? I love red pepper. Wimp! Eat your veggies! :P

Whale Island again. I guess this'll be the turning point for the next arc, which should be at York New City.

I think the music really made this episode as good as it was. As well as Killua seeing what a normal family is like, I kinda feel sorry for him..

So I'm watching the old version hxh, and here I am watching this beautiful episode, the end totally catches me off guard.
So nice, laughed quite some :D

Poor Kilua...he really had a crap childhood. I love how he's letting his guard down around Gon's family and starting to learn what a loving family is supposed to be like!!!

Most people wanted power. Killua is powerful, yet he wanted to be loved (I think)

This episode is amazing. There are many things to say about this episode.
However, Gonta's reaction to his child practicing nen is the best!

What a nice episode. We get back to whale island and Killua is starting to deviate from his normal arc, which is good. The music effects are on point in this episode.

This was refreshing on its own.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

That was cute, Killua experienced the true love of a mother, even though she's not his or Gon's mother. The end with the glowing foxbear was great, seems like he'll be a nen-user soon ^^

We need a spin-off in which the foxbear cub takes the hunter exam.

Not that much happened, but the contrast between Killua and Gon’s life highlighted. Does Mito really tried to damage the license? hahahaha. The bear cub using nen in the end.

Such a good episode. I feel bad for Killua in some parts tho. The huge contrast between how they grew up is sadge.

Fantastic episode, especially great development for Killua.
Also hilarious ending with the cub glowing with aura, surprised Konta was able to see it (Konta confirmed Nen user?)
