Hunter x Hunter 2011

so he ripped a ball sack out of his chest.

Haha. I thought the point was, in this anime adaptation, that he ripped also a piece of the man's shirt and the heart was inside it, like in a pouch. It surely didn't look like a bare heart at all.

But yeah, Killua kicks ass. I didn't remember Leorio sucked this much, though. He did achieve to get a handful of the girl's body, but that was only he, with the team watching from afar. Kind of unfair. I'm sure he still thinks it worth it, in any case.

Though, seeing Gon´s lack of a horrified reaction towards his murdering-in-front-of-him friend makes me like him less. I´m not even comparing old and new adaption, it´s probably the same for both. And you could probably argue something like "Gon sees no good or evil. He heard that the guy wanted a fight of life and death, and that´s what he got. So why should Gon be outraged?" Still, Killua murdered a guy, and Gon isn´t the kind of killer, so... oh well.

You shouldn't have such expectations in the first place. He's not that sort of a personality. In fact even Leorio shouldn't be. The Hunter exam has shown from the beginning it's not any boy scout club. It's a mission where you are constantly and consciously risking your life. If you accept risking your own life, you must accept others risking theirs as well, to avoid being a hypocrite.

I think of it more along the lines of dont expect anything less from Togashi, its in his style to write his protagonists to be somewhat numb to the death of people in general. Think of YuYu Hakusho.

Jesus Christ, why do ya'll want this trick tower part to be over so fast? Maybe there's some crazy-awesome stuff coming up after this that you can't wait to watch, i don't know, but damn, no need to rush that badly... jeez >_>

[Archangel]

HxH gets consistently more awesome, yeah.

[MFauli]

Yeah, it gets soooo much better with each new arc. And not really a spoiler, but there´s just one bit left of trick tower, so that´s why I thought they could have ended it this episode.

thank you very much, sir....
please remember that some people never have seen the original series.

[Dark Dragon]

I really am trying to like this series, but i just can't seem to.

One of the best thing about the original HxH is how well the director convey the atmosphere of the situation and the good use of music. Even the fillers in the original anime was excellent.

The random rock music during the intro of the mass murderer completely killed that scene. It was like watching someone introduced a wrestler or something. There are some neat stuff with the new direction they're going, but Gon and Hisoka terrible voice actors along with this general sense of generic shounen and excessive censoring is a complete deal breaker. Looks like i'm dropping this series as of this episode.

Speaking of music, a friend of mine pointed out that the ponderous music that plays during moments of doubt sounds eerily similar to the melody of the old song "16 Tons". Link for reference: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIfu2A0ezq0

Episode 12 aired

I've always been curious as to why anyone ever uploads to anything other than Megaupload or Mediafire. Everything else just plain sucks, and im speaking in general of everybody who uploads anything, I'm genuinely curious.

[DarthEnderX]

Hurm, the next episode looks like it's going to be a recap episode...

Money. They get paid for downloads off Fileserve and Filesonic. Fileserve pays $25 per 1000 downloads and Filesonic pays $35 per 1000 downloads.

Ah I figured it had to be something along those lines, didnt know they pay so much.

[Kraco]

What happened in this ep was actually such a nice way to solve a puzzle by thinking outside of the box that I even remembered it from the old series.

[Marik]

Episode 13 aired!

[Penner]

Really now, were only 13 eps in and already an entire recap ep... >_>

[Archangel]

Well... that's some bulshit.

[Carnage]

Are you fucking kidding me?

[Kraco]

The Japanese must be pretty demented lot to already need a whole episode long recap.

[David75]

Well, there's the shocking revelation that Mito-san might be Gon's father, when she's now a woman.
