Considering he's following the same path as Uvo, things like an attack range aren't necessarily anything that really needs discovering or thinking. He can simply pick up a rock and throw it at a speed of 800 m/s. It would deal with any opponent that wouldn't need an awesome, thrilling fight.Originally Posted by shinta|hikari
Does everyone on gotwoot have Alzheimer's or something?
I don't know if it's actually going to be one of Gon's weaknesses since it's more like a shounen trope, but it can't be denied his special attack is far too transparent. Even if he can "surprise" more idiotic opponents by cutting it short and using scissors instead. But nevertheless the beginning alone is too obvious and undynamic. Kite's technique also required the opponent to grant him a moment to summon a random weapon in a goofy manner, but I don't think most of the badasses had any such weaknesses.
The obvious answers would be that he's standing still through the whole power up, which in itself takes a while. It's like a telegraphed version of the spirit bomb. Doesn't help how he's calling out the name of the attack, Killua already called him out on that bulshit last time.
Maybe that's why Bisque picked this training method, so they can have sort of a more explosive Nen? Or maybe for the technique to work instantaneously and in movement he just has to go at 100% all the time.
Did anyone noticed that the last royal guard has the same voice as kenpachi*from bleach? And he kinda reminds me of the guy. His entrance was very kanpachi-like.
The punch worked on Rammot since Killua paralysed him. Gon has to make his attack instantaneous, or develop one that will disable his opponents first.

Having to "realize" something is a stupid shounen training method. It will always be easier if someone tells you what you lack, especially if you actually trust that person.
If the weaknesses actually include something as obvious as attack speed and/or predictability, why doesn't Bisky just tell them that too?
Keeping them in the dark about the goal and effects of their training is also stupid. Gon and Killua are going to work hard and not cut corners anyway.
Peace.
Killua has his yoyo and Gon has his fishing-rod if attack range is what needs solving.
edit: had* his fishing-rod.

Have I complained about that yet?Killua has his yoyo and Gon has his fishing-rod if attack range is what needs solving.
edit: had* his fishing-rod.
What ever happened to that thing? Seems like enhancement could make that thing awesome.
He left it back at the island last time they went to visit.
And no, no amount of Nen can make a fishing rod awesome. Fishing rods are lame.
Not when it's flipping up concrete slabs to crush you!
I really don't care about the fishing rod much, but I actually want to see more of Killua's yoyo attacks. It's too cool to be just a one-off thing for him to use while his hand was stuffed in GI.

What the... who the fuck deleted my post? This fucking shit should be against the rules, if you want to delete a post you warn the user and justify your fucking decision.
ugh, slow pace strikes. well, no, this ep was necessary, but damn, bring on the real fight!
most emotional moment: when bisuke told killua, that as things are going heīll leave gon to die at some point. he looked so poor when he heard that
Yeah, it sucked for him. That outcome wouldn't be entirely his fault either. It'll be a combination of both Killua's practice of running away AND Gon's will to stay for the fight. If they would both run, then it doesn't sound as bad as it did.ugh, slow pace strikes. well, no, this ep was necessary, but damn, bring on the real fight!

Now the situation she's proposing now is that Killua fight with Gon - with the outcome being that they'd both live, or both die.
Funnily enough, Killua's matched up against the "coward" as well. I just hope it won't be a stare-off next week.

OMFG! I can't take this waiting anymore..
The anticipation is killing me.
The preview suggests that they both lost however.

I thought Killua's situation was exaggerated too much. Perhaps it's partially believable in the sense that Biscuit apparently hammened his weakness in pretty forcefully and thus he can't get over it, but otherwise it feels like the plot is forgetting he's a fricking assassin who has slain god only knows how many people. And it's not like he was a total stranger to more demanding fights either. Yet now he's suddenly too scared to stop his knees from shaking and can't take a step forward. If he really was consistently like that, we would have seen this behavior before. But it seems like it appeared out of nowhere in this arc.
In other news the much anticipated king looks like a clown. I expected him to look like a cool badass, but instead he looks worse than many of his underlings.
It does seem a little like that. I wonder if it has to do with the number of strong people that are coming up in this arc though. We've been introduced to Killua's way of assessing situations before. I think Pitou "shocked" him into running for his life, and the whole Gon thing is pushing him now.
Honestly his fighting before was pretty smart, and it prioritised being alive above all else. What it doesn't help with, is when you're trying to save the world, which protagonists tend to do. As a simple pay-to-kill assassin and fighter, Killua's doing just fine. A noble warrior, he is not.

True, but we have seen the Zoldycks are also hired to off quite powerful targets. Maybe they can afford to default once or twice against especially tricky opponents, but if they fail (run) too many times, that's it. Nobody serious is going to hire them anymore. But I suppose his brother wasn't even training him to be an excellent assassin, just to stay alive no matter the cost. It simply hasn't been shown too well in the show before this arc.
