Gon and Killua's friendship is so sweet I can barely stand it, I love it so. Whenever Killua looks surprised at Gon feeling the same, gah, my heart.

lmao I feel the exact same way.

As usual, great episode. Though, I think we've had "Departure" as the opening long enough. Oh well, it's a cool song I guess. I hope this anime goes past the Greed Island arc.

HxH BEST SHOUNEN NOW.. as a one piece fanboy i admit it..
i loved this episode..
we got some info. about the game.
Great pace + Great animation + Great story progression.
the only thing i disliked about this ep. Biscuit VA .. but i will get used to it ;p
5/5


Pretty much this.

I do enjoy OP as much as HxH, the only reason OP is my favorites series is just because I've been a fan of it for more time.

But anyway, nice episode overall.

Amazing episode. The pacing was faster than in the OVA but still it has the most important things, so it feels complete.
Killua's killer aura scene was awesome, he's still a Zoldyck after all.
The effects and sounds for the binder are much better. In the OVAs I could never stand that stupid sound every time
they used "book", it felt really out of place to me.
I have to say I didn't like Genthru's design for this version, he looks older and his face (the outline more specifically) looks weird at times.
The way they explained the rules is precise and doesn't feel dense, I think the first-time watchers appreciated the visual cues as well . I've seen the OVAs and read the manga but there were many rules I didn't remember, so my "I already know this" sense didn't go off that often.
The wait was worth it. MH is doing great, I think they will do this arc justice and CA will kick some serious ass.

Nah, since it's displayed below the 日テレ logo, it's probably just about the 60 year anniversary of Nippon TV, the TV network which broadcasts HxH. (It was established in 1953)

Genthru has those lines in the manga in the beginning though eventully
Togash stops drawing them. Genthru always had a very angular and
"weird" outline in the manga.

How old is Genthru anyways?

Beautiful beautiful episode! I love how Gon declined their offer; I have a feeling that they're bad people anyways ^0^

Gon and Killua work together so well, they're such balanced characters, makes for really good development.

5/5 - Kyaaa loved the new ED :) and is that woman in the picture Gon's mother...? o.o

Can't wait for next week <3

LOL

Anyway, this was a likable episode for me although there was A LOT of information being thrown around all at once. Just curious, but did any new viewers have problems keeping up with it?

Gon and Killua's interactions at the end was a nice way to end the episode and was pretty much the best part of the episode for me haha. I loved the watercolor effect that they used. Gotta say though, I'm just ready for the arc to take off and get to the exciting parts already. Based on the opening animation, I'm sure everything is going to be extremely epic! :3

This is a minor nitpick but I wish they would use more of the newer tracks for this arc. I'm bummed that the drums we heard from the Hunter Exam are still here after all this time U__U;

Most of the hardcore technical information about the game went in one ear and out the other.

Yeah, the OST from the Hunter Arc is just...terrible. They made up for it in the following arcs though.

This episode was nothing special, then again Greed Island has always been a nothing special arc for me so I guess this was ok. Not really better or worse than the other anime, just similar. The pacing is good though, the new series seems to move much faster through the storyline according to the preview for next episode.

Chill ya pansy, he was still engulfed in a pool of blood. Honestly, you'd think after Yorkshin people would stop complaining about the gore going into CA. It will be no where close to the manga's level of brutality, but it will still be brutal in its own right, just like Yorkshin was.

I don't give a shit about the gore, I was just pointing it out you cunt.

The mechanics of the game seem pretty cool, though I'm not sure if I wrapped my head around everything. Maybe I'm kind of like Gon in that regard, lol.

Hmm, that group that wanted Gon and Killua to join is suspicious, especially since they're trying to convince the players to leave all of their cards behind when they leave. I wonder what that girl is up to and if she will turn out to be a friend or foe.

It was heartwarming to see that Killua and Gon are so close now.

Saw that spoiler before saw the girl's age. I still hoping the girl ain't strongly annoying. Have a bad feeling about this.
Good episode.
I was shocked that Gon refused and Killua agreed to his decision.

god i was laughing hard at that guy in the dreads teleporting somewhere else! reminds of my childhood when playing runescape, when i'm about to get killed while pking i'd try to teleport like hell. anyways great episodes as usual.was not expecting gon to turn down joining the group and wonder what that little girl will do to them. and that was cute at then end when gon called killua you could see in his eyes he really cares about gon. I know friendship is done to death in shonen but this is a believable friendship. something that naruto doesn't do ( naruto claims sasuke is a very close friend but he was never much of one)

I like how they reveal all the information related to all of the cards and the power up's, etc. So gon chooses to go it solo instead of alying him self with the other players. Smart desicion because you never know exactly who is telling you the truth, you can only trust you self., I am sure ther is just tons deception in this game.

Some one is watching them :p

only 10 games exist

that should be a total of only 80 players.

That other group that try to finish the game in ''non-lethal'' way seem fishy as fuck. I don't trust them at all, that look like the perfect scam, to exploit newcomers.

Mmm, do that girl plan to seduce them to divide them? But if that ever happen, the bromance will triomph!

Gon is so innocent. That innocence will ends up hurting him at some point...

@Hinata You sort of got it right(it is Yugioh, but the manga) since "Magic & Wizards" debuted in late 1996.

Oh, snap! So GI invented "Trace on".
