EPISODE REVIEWS

Light episode, but key build up for the next one. Gon, Killua, and Leorio doing arm wrestling matches for cash. Steady pace with crucial info you’ll need later. Hisoka also try to find the opportunity to fight with Phantom Troupe leader. But not today episode.

A bit slow-paced for me, and nothing much happened that gave that usual thrill. However, story-wise, it was still significant. It included a character backstory, strategic business elements, and subtle moments that added depth to certain characters, making it worthwhile.

I like this episode. It was somewhat so-so in terms of excitement, but still undeniably important to the story. My favorite four are almost coming back, and I already miss them! This episode delivered a tense atmosphere that feels like it’s gradually building up to a major event.
