    I can't believe the pacing of this fight compared to the previous series.. no boring moment.
    Funny that even though I know what's going to happen, I can't wait to see the next few episodes. (not to mention that after GI 'new' stuff comes along)

    I never got this part in the old show either, why didn't Biscuit just kick the Bomber's ass herself?

    Thats what I was going to complain about.

    It´s still nice watching it, BUT there´s absolutely no tension, no moment of fear involved in these fights. Well, except for Gon´s.

    The plan of their´s makes no sense. Had Bisuke fought Genthru, Gon would have had about as much problems with the black-haired guy as Killua had with his opponent. And Genthru would have stood no chance against Bisuke. Safe victory. Instead, they make this confrontation artificially dangerous by having Gon fight the boss.
    Though I´d also like to complain about Genthru´s comrads being complete wusses. Do you want to tell me that there are no other nen-users inside Greed Island that could match their strength? But Gon and Killua can? Come on.

    Still enjoying it all, but this battle is kinda forced in ways.

    Perhaps she knew Bomber would take on Gon since Gon challenged him earlier. They wanted to separate them out because as a team, Team Gon was weaker - divide and conquer. The idea was for Killua and Bisuit to take on the weaker guys and win (the weaker guys would take on Killua because he was still injured, and Bisky because she was tasty). Gon was supposed to lure Bomber into a trap right? I won't remember if the trap involved Biscuit and Killua's involvement at all.

    I really enjoyed the soundtrack that played while Killua toyed with his prey. He's definitely in my triad of favourite HxH characters.

    As if a villain like Genthru would keep around lackeys even remote as strong as he is. He needs his comrades both weaker and stupider than he is because they are all greedy backstabbing bastards.

    Weak? The black haired guy took a punch to the face from Bisky and survived. The red haired dude took a 50 kg yoyo to the back of the head and remained conscious....

    Bisky may also want this to be a learning experience for Gon.

    What? Nuh uh. I mean, sure they'll backstab people, but probably not each other. They've shown significant care for each other when they had that argument about who should use the risky dice. They get to speak their minds freely too, so the relationship seems more amicable than that. Them being weaker than Genthru is probably their own fault.

    There's a power level page somewhere around the internet ( official ) and it set her pretty high. I think she was just a little behind the president.

    All things considered I think that powerlevel chart simply measured the extent to which each character mastered the six special abilities or something along those lines. Because it placed several characters fairly close to uh, lets say ridiculously strong characters.

    I think its probably best to compare characters to the troupe, or the Zoldeycks. Comparing anything to the chairman isn't really fair.

    They can appear like that precisely because there is a difference in power and wits between the stooges and Genthru. As it is, they can act quite freely and in amiable manner within their group because the setting is fixed and unambiguous. Probably Genthru can even count on the two dudes not having too big ambitions to try and reach his level. Right now Genthru gets two "friends" to spend time with, formulate more complex plots with, and with whom he can laugh at their victims. The two followers probably got much of their training from Genthru and with him they are sure to be able to pursuit loftier goals than alone. So, both sides benefit. But if they were all at the same level, they would constantly need to wonder how long one party needs the others or if the others are planning to backstab to claim it all. Because of the similar level of power, they couldn't help but worry as a fight could end any way. Now, however, the lackeys know they would lose, so they wouldn't normally even dream of trying, and instead concentrate on helping Genthru.

    Gon has had strong help when needed to learn and hone his skills. Biscuit probably is part of a plan to have Gon grow in an incredibly powerful monster. Biscuit judged Gon has enough skills to survive Genthru, and the angel breath is probably a failsafe to have Gon survive just in case something goes wrong, like shit happens even when you're strong enough.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Kinda cheap that Gon could just heal his hand like that. Took away from the gruesomeness of it.

    Also, not killing Genthru is pure bs. Wonder if they at least hand him over to ... well, the nen-police, lol.

    finally getting to the end of greed island. should be fun.

    Well, ever since we knew about that card's powers, it was obvious there was room for higher bets.
    Regarding that card, I guess asking it :"Please heal everyone around us" or the like would not work?
    I know they have to get rid of the excess of such cards, but it was really a waste they didn't even explain why that would not work.
    I guess it only works on 1 player at a time then.

    They aren't any goody two-shoes boy scouts wanting to right all the wrongs in the world. They are neutral and always doing what they want to do personally, getting stronger in the process. That's a good thing about them. Sure, very often they end up fighting the bad guys, but that's natural since bad guys themselves end up fighting anyway, including other bad guys, not only heroes. Gon simply has a few principles he honours, but that's it. Otherwise his only goal is to meet his old man and hang around with his friends. It's quite refreshing shounen wise that he's not there to judge people like Genthru, jamming his own values down everybody else's throats.
