    Nevermind. I checked the episode and it was voodoo.

    Leorio is totally going to win the election now!
    I'm guessing this is "All according to plan" for Ging.

    Actually, I theorize that was the second request, the first being "don't bully Killua anymore"; hence the difficulty raising for the second request, and meaning the butler oba-san is now only one (request) away from a wish of her own...

    The person who fulfills the request doesn't have to be the one who gets their wish granted.

    Alluka also referred to Killua as Onii-chan so I don't know if that would count as a request.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Killua seems acutely aware of what is and isn't a request from Something. So if it was one, I'm sure they'd have mentioned it.

    I thought him recognizing that (my theory) was why he was upset at what the butler did.

    But yeah, I forgot about the name change thing...

    This is a pretty good deal for Hisoka even if nobody else. He only cares about tough, exciting fights and the buttler(s) ought to offer such. Plus he can work towards making sure Gon and Killua will continue to grow into worthy opponents. Using Illumi's uncontrolled bloodlust to warn Killua was a pretty funny scene, considering Hisoka's expression.

    I can kind of see why Killua likes his little sister so much, despite the danger. I hope she won't die.

    Illumi´s bloodlust scene was the best. Have we ever heard why Hisoka doesn´t fight Illumi? Seems like a strong "prey".

    Alluka is just super cute. Makes me want to get a plush version of her for cuddling purposes.

    Tsubone keeping up with Killua´s god speed annoyed me.

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court

    During this whole episode (arc) I noticed that Im not missing Gon at all. This could be sacrilege but I wouldnt mind having him out of the show for a long time.

    I feel that there are tons of more interesting characters/relationships than his "father issues" (and all that "im a good guy that can go crazy killermachine mode when angered").

    Crazy Zoldyck family, Spiders, Hisoka, surviving ants, Gings plans. I even feel more intrigued about some of the candidates to chairman, their jobs and their stars, and even what "factions" could be found inside the hunters guild.
    The path of excess leads to the tower of wisdom

    It could be that Illumi occasionally tips Hisoka to powerful opponents, so its worth not fighting him in order to have a consistent supply of adversaries.

    Hisoka wants to fight strong enemies and live.

    If he just wanted to fight then die, he could have come to Netero anytime.

    And died.

    @Edort - I have to agree. Gon is not exactly the most interesting character out of the lot.

    Alluka's flabby smile made me jizz.

    Hahah, Leorio is in 3rd place. That would be some crazy shit if he really did end up becoming Chairman.

    I doubt that Hisoka considers the Butlers to be of the level he's actually looking for. I'm sure the reason Hisoka is even friends with Illumi is because he wants to fight the Zoldyks themselves somehow.

    After all, he wanted to go one-on-one with Chrollo, who was able to fend off two of the Zoldyks for awhile.


    I always wonder if Hisoka isn't hiding some other power, because for someone who's probably one of the strongest characters in the series, Bungee Gum seems like a shitty power.

    Just going back to Leorio's ability, I remember now that the boxer had a small radius of effectiveness, and also needed the Nen symbol on the canvas to boost his ability. Leorio's seems to have more range, even if somewhat slower and visible.

    You know this entire mess may actually be averted if Killua told the family about his plans to get rid of Alluka's power. The assassins are powerful enough to protect themselves anyway without Alluka's powers so it's not like it'd be such a big loss to them.

    If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~

    Well I'm still assuming that's what he's going to do, use Something's power to free both Gon and Alluka of whatever's binding them. I can't think of a better way to do it.

    How else would he "free Alluka" other than unbinding her from Something?

    Makes sense. But how? Do you that he's allowed to wish for two outcomes from the same wish?

    Cause if not, that first wish to heal Gon still seems like it could kill a ton of people.

    "Hey Something, leave Alluka alone and take Gon's curse with you."

    "Hey Something, free everybody in this room so they're no longer possessed."

    Something like to that extent.

    Good idea if it works.



    Honestly though, Alluka and that daughter that Kurapica had to guard kind of annoy me. These people with no concept of what Nen even is having these insane Nen abilities seems contrary to Nen the way it's presented by the rest of the series.

    It's too bad Chrollo doesn't have his powers anymore, or he could totally show up and take Alluka's power away.

    Not necessarily. Though I agree it's better they are as rare as they are. They might be just extremely natural nen users, with not a small touch of insanity making it work. Nen seems like something a genuinely insane person could boost to the absolute maximum, even if they they were rendered largely useless by the madness otherwise. Kind of like the image of an autistic person excelling at something beyond most, yet being otherwise a compromised person. In fact it's not so far from willingly setting a condition like Kurapica (and apparently Gon) did. In Alluka's case her ability to use the power is extremely limited as she can't even decide herself what it's used for but instead somebody random gets to make a wish.

    Since Chimera Ants were able to use nen without any proper understanding of it, I have no troubles accepting Alluka. And since these types of nen-users are, like, super rare, it feels like natural evolution at work - sometimes creating freaks.

    "She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
