Awww man, they skipped that scene with Gon fighting for his life while half dead.

Yeah, like Kurapika and Gon couldnīt just slay a bunch of measly snakes. lol
Finally downloaded the episodes and basically marathoned them all up to this point, and it's been a glorious ride xD. Everyone is as awesome as ever and I can't wait for the individual fights to happen after this *drool* I'm a little sad that the filler episode from the previous series that had the boat trial won't be making it here but I'll get over it.
I'm not finding a problem with any of the voice actors in this series, and the original hxh my favorite shonen series of all times. I have 0 problems with hisoka. I've never thought of him as batshit crazy. It's simply that he thinks nothing of taking life, can be overcome with bloodlust, and has these traits coupled with a clown type personality who likes to have fun. He's also principled and focused. All of these things are shown here, perfectly.

You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

Too bad Ponzu didn't make it through. She was cute.
Holding your breath for five minutes and then carrying three people out of a cave, still without breathing. That takes some guts.
Yup, all the more guts when you have a body that already suffered poisoning 2 times and some heavy beating, all of these events should have his stamina greatly depleted.
But them he carries the bunch altogether as if they were as light as feathers.
We already know they are incredibly strong and all, it's just they really stretch it a lot at times.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
Yeah, you would think he'd just make 3 trips, and catch his breath after each person. It's not like the snakes are gonna wake up any time soon.
I'm actually ok with the stretching they're doing here. In the original anime, there was a point where Gon was mad at some guy who was insanely powerful while he was essentially the Gon you know now. Gon grabbed the guy's arm, squeezed it like he was crushing an orange, and actually hurt him. That seemed to come out of the blue to me back then. But with these exaggerations, that kind of think will make more sense.

To expect humanly physical limitations out of shonen heros is a little naive.
To me the next episode is the cornerstone where i decide which version of the anime is superior. No spoilers

More like OUTSTANDING music!
But yeah, I'm really hoping that doesn't get censored a whole lot. Cause it's awesome.
It's not so much about humanly limitations.
Just they should have consistent limitations somewhere, or challenges are pointless. The hunter test becomes pointless.

People don't go linking to content from future episodes even if it's from the original anime. Thanks.
Anyways, yeah sad to see Ponzu go. Overall an underwhelming episode since not much happened. Escape from a cave, see who passed, and an interview which only had an interesting portion with Hisoka, the rest was boring. Looking forward to the next portion for sure though.
That's dumb, i clearly marked the link as from the original and most of us have already watched it anyway.
What you call boring i call character development, that was Gon having a taste of the real world.
Boring wasn't the right word, just nothing much happened in the context of a single episode.
Episode 19 aired!
