u guys all have zodiacs so u can figure out what animal u are

Giulia Beonio

About the appearance of the zodiac, yes they themself modified their appearance out of respect for netero after he game them the name, but it wasn’t something that netero impose on them, they just decide that they wanted to do that for him, so ging and pariston (the rat) did’t do it because they did’t care, ging is always after enjoyment, he did care on some level for netero but he wasn’t gonna change his appearance just for him, and pariston simply didn’t care, he is just after his own agenda, always

John Acebes

First comment since becoming a Patreon member and for some reason this irked me enough to want to write down my reaction. 22:34 - "why do they always have an animal logo?" They're called the Zodiacs. As in the animal based zodiacs. Year of the dragon, rat, dog, etc.? I don't know if it'll be cleared up later in this episode but come on

arcv

I have watched Hunter x Hunter like 15 times, and I'm just now noticing the election votes were taken on my birthday lol

SoreDakeNoKoto

Lol, surely you've had time to realize how silly you're being? First, you're conflating "good design" with "cute". Then you say you like Cheadle's and the (very diverse) majority of the CA designs for whatever arbitrary reasons, but somehow dislike the Zodiac designs for equally arbitrary reasons, then make noise insisting "bad designs are bad designs". It's obviously perfectly fine if you find the Zodiac designs ass, but trying to transform your tastes into some sort of objective fact, is just silly, especially in something as hazy as rating designs.

GBuckets

Brigg is good at pissing off One piece fans, lol

GBuckets

because of game of thrones

botanbutton

I mean yeah OF COURSE, but I've heard people ask, why THESE animals? And I'm like "for real?". 😭 That's all I'm sayin'.

James Perrott

136 is such a perfect epilogue ending for the chimera ant arc, and the Reina scene is genuinely somehow as emotional as the King and Komugi dying, god knows how lol, They even somehow made Brovada lovable in the end

James Perrott

I frankly dont care if the designs are "creative" or if they are Neteros will, bad designs are bad designs. The majority of the designs from the chimera ant arc are just cool or good in other ways Cheadle the dog girl is perfectly fine and cute i like her, Pariston is annoying and his design fits, hes ok. Ging is ok but his hat is trash. And the bunny girl is cute but the rest? theyre actual hot garbage. The horse guy is possibly the worst design in all of HxH that is 100% unlikable and unredeemable

James Perrott

bunny girl cute but cheadle cuter

James Perrott

they dont grow on you though, Only Cheadle is good and pariston is annoying but interesting i guess, the rest are just straight up irelevant

James Perrott

bruh what do you mean no one notices theyre the chinese zodiacs theyre LITERALLY CALLED THE ZODIACS???

James Perrott

Meloreons cool though lmao

James Perrott

I just cannot bring myself to like this arc tbh. I like parts of itwith Alluka, and some moments, and i like the dog girl Cheadle, but this whole meeting is hot garbage i wont lie, it goes on way too long and the feel the need to explain in depth every single thought of everyone and every last process of the election its just way too much I also just hate the sudden tone shift back to old HxH after how dark chimera ant was, even the use of the old overused music i hate it It just doesnt work for me

Jyle

Yall underestimate a mother's intuition lol! Mom's always know!

Sasha

They have to get Jack a personal mic because I can't hear jack of him. Get Mckay one too.

Sasha

Carter "almost" canceled

Sasha

But even the rat guy didn't have as sussy look as Mckay had when the snake lady was introduced. Mic drop.

kingkoopa98

The anime was kind of put in a difficult position because plot wise Gyro isn't much of a factor in this arc, but they couldn't completely cut all of the Gyro stuff because Welfin's loyalty to Gyro and his connection with Ikalgo through Gyro were important for his character development. But the Gyro arc will probably never be written or adapted due to Togashi's health issues so I can see why the anime wanted to condense that storyline in the CAA as much as possible.

kiiturii

the thing with hxh is that pretty much everything will be against expectations, like with the shadow beasts before and now the zodiacs, elite high ranking members with a sick teamname, of course togashi will make them all eccentrics who don't fit that stereotype at all lmao, you'll probably get used to them, I remember you guys felt the same way about chimera ants and like Hisoka at first too

kiiturii

damn that's such a cool detail, I remember thinking on my first watch that Gyro would just end up being some bum and all his men overestimated him the whole time, they just set him up as *too* mysterious and we never learn anything about him lol..

Miriam Desu

Guys, is totally OK to complain xD I also wasn't a fan of the zodiacs and found this arc very interesting. Enjoy the rest!

Gaboxxy

Hisoka showing more concern for Gon that Ging is crazy.

Nathan

Something is coming boys

ssj4rit

I’m just wearing a tinfoil hat here, but IMO based on all the reactions I’ve seen of his, I just feel Carter considers HxH a C tier show in truth. But he can’t really critique it as much as he wants because sometimes fans go rabid online. It’s fine to not like a show of course, but you can tell with all his input he kinda beats around the bush or tries to dress up criticisms in a somewhat positive way (i.e. “The author is very creative, that’s all I’ll say”). He’s had a more tepid, tame reaction to this show than others. IMO this show is definitely not his taste. I respect that he doesn’t just blindly praise the show though, and it’s good to have variety in reactions else it feels fake.

Pavlo

“Thats his hunter form” legit that is not funny at all but ive been dying over that for 5 mins

kingkoopa98

Chapter 204 - also I was wrong they don't mention him going to Meteor City, that's just where Welfin thinks he is.

By any chance do you remember the chapter or roughly the chapters this part is shown?

Liam

They’re avoiding this question

Enma

My fault brother 😅😂

Fe

when will we get the next two episodes?

Christina Laegel

I’ll be super curious to see how you guys feel about this arc at the end haha. It’s definitely very different from the rest of the show

kingkoopa98

Regarding Gyro - in the manga there was a scene during the training arc where the narrator said that Gyro was reborn as an Ant with all of his human memories intact and that his willpower was so strong he was able to immediately leave the Ants. It was also stated that he was heading to Meteor City and that he would have an encounter with Gon in the future. The anime cut this part out, probably because it is set up for a future arc that may never be written due to Togashi's health issues.

Mitch

Brooo it’s actually so perfect that you bring him up because he’s the shining example of why one pieces character designs are so genius. I won’t spoil but I’ll say that he has a reason for dressing like that and it’s genuinely one of the best moments in the series when you find out.

Liam

When are the next two episodes coming out

why did jack get moved lmao

That's Carter not Mckay

I've always wanted to ask if this seating arrangement was chosen when you guys started the channel or if this is how you always sat together lol I hope Jack isn't in jail for long!

i just wanna kno more about don freecess'

Pavlo

“Jack is in jail”😭

Faris Alamin

22:32 - It says 'However, there are exceptions' with Ging in the background when talking about the Zodiacs changing to look like their code names. Ging is not meant to look anything like a Boar.

Colin Boehling

the zodiacs arent the top hunters in terms of combat. some are smart and some are strong. and a couple are just rats lol

Ammar gayal

I think he had many problems with the last arc kind checked him out of the show, but he has to continue watching for the sake of the channel and the others. That's why he is nitpicking on every detail. He said it is interesting that this new character (reina) is suddenly important before knowing who she is. This tells me that he is focusing and analysing the details from story telling perspective and not actually watching the show.

accomplice

Paris Hilton

Izaya

I think that was just Mckay saying, its not a shared opinion. But it is indeed curious how nothing seems to please them. There is always a problem. Its whether the pacing, the character design, whatever the hell it is this time... Nothing is ever good. I think JJK had an effect on them. The show where all characters look like modern day ticktockers with attractive bodies and pretty faces. But i guess 1 year ago these guys were literally anime haters and now they have an anime business. maybe the transition was too sudden. so maybe im being too critical. It just refreshing to see a story that strays so much from orthodox shonen archetype and has so much personality in it that is a little disappointing to see someone asking for run of the mill normal character designs. Not that its that important.

Gaboxxy

Pariston is supposed to embody the archetype of the politician. The code-name "Rat" is very fitting.

Ale

"Name somebody that is cool and doesn't look cool and don't say Melody" 😂

Izaya

ther eare ppl that dont even like the Chimera Ant arc...

Izaya

Another correction: The Zodiacs are NOT necessarily he TOP 12 strongest Hunters. Many of them dont even have combat capabilities. they are simply a group of people whose abilities Netero recognized to manage the Hunter Associasstion. And on another note, we've been through the reason why not more Hunters weren't sent to NGL so i think its pointless to go through it again a third time. Example: Morel could be a Zodiac. He isn't cause of chance or happenstance

Ammar gayal

One thing that I don't understand is that they say that chimera ant arc doesn't feel like hxh and now they said this arc doesn't feel like hxh. So what is hxh supposed to feel like ? To me each arc is a different genre with different feels. Hxh is not supposed to feel one thing

kai

ppl dont like the election arc for some reason but i love ittttt

Alan

Never mind just got further into the video haha

Elijah Slocombe

"my thing was that he doesn't" was pretty hilarious

Alan

AYO WHY TF ARE YOU GUYS IN DIFFERENT SPOTS

Delane Gill

Also they mention it abit earlier in the show but the reason why only Knov and Morel went with Netero was because the Vice chairman was making it very difficult to send any more help such as the zodiacs. Although Knov and Morel are pretty high ranking hunters they aren’t at the same level as most of the zodiacs in terms of pure Nen ability but it could also be said that their Nen abilities were very useful for the type of mission that happened

Delane Gill

Although I don’t feel completely the same way I do understand why some of the Geks aren’t a fan of the zodiac designs. I think in terms of them altering their appearance to embody their zodiac animal, I wouldn’t be surprised if they used Nen to drastically change their appearance somewhat and characters such as Pariston (Rat) and Ging didn’t really bother to because they didn’t care about it as much whilst the others held a great deal of admiration and respect for Netero

Soupy

When it comes to the Zodiacs embodying their respective animals, the narrator said looks and personalities. That would lean in more towards Ging and Pariston for the personalities because they don't have much of the look. "They are energetic, enthusiastic, and love to have fun" is a quote about people born in the year of the pig. I do think that Ging's hat with his frayed hair sticking out resembles a warthog though

Mia Malvik

yoo I'd forgotten how fine Ging is

Happy

Imo they gotta understand at the end of the day HXH is still a shounen right, meaning its not gonna be consistent in its tone even the titans in AOT have goofy aspects. So if they're looking for constant serious designs and stuff they should stick to seinen shows like vinland

ssj4rit

Yeah they should def watch the promotional vid, it would get them hype for new anime content in the year 2079. (There are 2 PV btw, one for overall HxH and the other for new content. Highly recommend both).

Diamantes 💎💎🇲🇽

Right, especially Naruto’s openings. Naruto has some of the best openings in all of anime

devakira

personally I really like Togashi's drawing style in the manga, it can be a very realist drawing (like junji ito horror's style for palm) to a very goofy/cartoon drawing (like Ikarugo). Also when you will finish hxh I recommend you "hxh promotional manga video" it's reaaally cool I love the aesthetic with the music !!

devakira

Wouaw time fly so fast I can't believe we're are coming to the end... :'^< The episode 136 make me so emotional each time between reina, burovda and kirua >:0

LeFlaneur

It’s unfortunate that the next arc hasn’t been adapted to anime. The new characters in the next arc look very creative, but still feel very “Hunter x Hunter”, unlike half the Zodiacs who feel like they’re characters that have been pulled from other series.

Josh

I love every time Carter says "he's so creative" LMAO. I don't like most of those designs either, and I think people need to understand that you can have a creative character design that's ALSO aesthetically pleasing. I think with One Piece, Oda legitimately wanted there to be 'ugly characters' amongst all the others, so they're sorta intentionally ugly. I agree that intentional or otherwise, having the bad/ugly character design + obnoxious and loud personality, it can be a bit much. Like the cow guy has a ridiculous design but he's still likeable because he isn't obnoxious.

Josh

next two will prob drop tomorrow

This !

Kamui

We finally finished peak, the election arc is pretty cool too can’t wait to see Alluka

Brian Perez Vera

I hate how they skip the intro! 😭💀 like I understand some anime’s give spoilers but they don’t always, the openings is one of the best features in anime

Empyral

always a good day when studio gek posts HXH

I’m Tired

are we only getting 2 eps this week?????

Osvaldo

Monta Yuras, kortopi, melody, top guy from heaven’s arena are some of the more weird ones prior to last arc.

LuvStarburst

I'm not sure how i feel about brig and jack sitting in different spots lol

PST3

You should use this sitting layout for GoT, the people that haven't seen it sitting near the camera and people who have away from it.

Nonos

Before watching the shows, I hated the weird looking characters in hxh and one piece too and it was why I didn’t start one piece for awhile but after watching them I grew to love and appreciate how unique and unpredictable their character looks were. You will have some of the sickest character designs in anime from one piece and hxh but also the most ridiculously looking characters in anime aswell. It’s fun 😂

Bingsu

What's with the seating arrangement 👀

accomplice

that actually sounds fire 🔥

Mitch

One piece has interesting designs but they all have a purpose and are usually fleshed out. It’s almost a guarantee you will learn to love one pieces designs. Theirs really nothing like them in all of anime

Fe

chimera ant arc is the best arc but the election arc is the most fun and interesting imo

Enma

Maybe there is a secret nen category we haven't discovered yet🤔 or maybe there is something better than nen that Ging learned/invented. 🤣

accomplice

A specialist is most likely or manipulator a bit far closer.. Manipulating the other nen categories and using it as your own.. that's broken! 🤣 his not Kurapika.. But' specialist is #1 spot his most likely to be, then manipulator would make sense.. 🤔hmm.. there's still something about it doesn't fit right..

Enma

I would guess he is a specialist given his abilities (kind of reminds me of Chrollo) and how he is considered to be one of the top 5 Nen users. However, he could also be a manipulator as you said and just have complete mastery over the other Nen categories. It's hard to say unless we see more or are told directly.

Sebastian G

Sure… they don’t have to like it but they shouldn’t be surprised. HXH world build is as bizarre and unique as they come.

boop

disagree i honestly kinda like the switchup keeps things fresh

Alex

They can have an opinion

Sebastian G

Y’all need to not have any expectations for this show lol Togashi writes and draws what he wants.. but that’s what makes him such a profound writer. In the case of the zodiacs, some were born looking like animals and some were not. The ones that don’t tried to resemble more of their creature out of respect to Netero. The ones that do were given their zodiac symbol based off their appearance.

Dakota

The zodiacs embody the different animals that are part of the zodiac. He gave them names and they changed their appearances and vibes to go off that. Ging and Pariston both embody their animals in personality, but their personalities were already that way, so they didn’t change anything. And as Jack said, the zodiacs are doing it out of reverence for Netero (not because he died, they’ve been doing it for a long time). It’s a sorta goofy design choice, but it’s to set them apart from other hunters. There’s a reason Netero chose them. Sure they look goofy, but they earned their positions.

botanbutton

@ssj4rit 😭😭😭😭😂

accomplice

Ging is the Goat! Pariston (rat) taunted Ging that his son might die, Ging look him the eye and said "Go visit him, he isn't going to die" in pure confidence with a smile.. Carter was on to something there, I notice that too when I first watch, Ging might have the ability to foresee the future, but I don't know the condition that power is too OP to be overly used! In the manwha Ging is not confirmed a - specialist or any other nen category by the author. Personally, If I were to gamble, I think Ging is a manipulator.. but then its complicated there's so many factors. He has all the traits of the nen category according to hisoka - nen personality test.. Enhancers: simple and earnest Transmutes: fickle and dishonest Emitters: Short-tempered Conjurers: High-strung and Nervous Manipulators: Argumentative Specialists: Charismatic and Independent Literally, just watching this episode tell me Ging hasn't done all that.. its crayzie! Those 12 Zodiacs are the Chinese version.. they have their own thing!

Kyosuke Kagami

1) FREE JACK, JACK DID NOTHING WRONG! 2) Zodiacs are awful (except the bunny girl, 10/10 waifu), but this arc is still 10/10. 3) JACK LIVES MATTER!

ssj4rit

If that’s true then Horse really fucked himself up for no reason, damn.

kuza

had the same thought about the zodiacs initially but theyll grow on you a bit as u accept some of them look strange 😭 some of them i cant get used to though 💀

botanbutton

lol leave the Zodiacs aloooone 😭 Togashi was just having fun! 😂 In all honesty, I didn't care for the Zodiacs' designs either at first. They grew on me. But yeah, they take after the animals of the Chinese Zodiac (i feel no one ever realizes that). And like Jack said, out of respect for Netero, they went out of their way to embody the Zodiac codenames by changing their faces, clothing, etc. BUT it wasn't a requirement which is why Ging (Boar) and Pariston (Rat) do not look like animals lol.

Shiv Bhakta

WOOOOOO

brog.

i havent watched yet but jack and brig being flipped is cursed

Manro

free jack he did nothin wrong!!! He ain’t a rat!!!

Jed

Massive!

Watch One Piece

One Piece has some ridiculous character designs but they are mostly irrelevant side characters. All the important characters have some of the best designs in all of anime.

Watch One Piece

LOL Jack is going through a character arc. Next video you should have him move up one spot on the couch, and then another, and keep changing it every video just to screw with people.

Guy

But Pariston is TOTALLY a rat tho, even if not physically

Manro

petition to free jack out of blabber jail

Alex

In some subs it puts (special case) next to ging and pariston when they are intorducing all the zodiacs because they didnt go out of their way to embody the code names

Cookie

why is jack there and why is brig there...this feels wrong

ssj4rit

HxH is weird because the character designs range from The Godfather to One Piece on ketamine. But that’s why I like it lol

Nrock23

But then they also have some of the most bad ass and sick looking characters of all of anime

Jacob Goldsmith

sucks that this arc was the end of the anime becuase its legit just the beginning of peak in the manga info wise.

happyfairyjerry

Yeah one piece really is on another level with the weird characters

Nrock23

HxH has always had weird character designs but yeah it’s no one piece

Jacob Goldsmith

also paristons the rat due to how he acts its not verymuch an endearing nickname

ssj4rit

I sense a great disturbance in the Force…as if millions of Jacksons suddenly cried out for their seats and were suddenly silenced.

Nonos

Bro that scene with Reina and the mom is so beautiful to me cuz of how the mother could tell, even from the smallest mannerisms, that this humanoid ant just had to be her child. Just shows how a mother always knows their child, and will love them no matter what crazy circumstances they are hit with. We barely know these characters but the scene still hit different to me personally. Great full circle moment with the very beginning to this great arc. Togashi is a goat 🐐 . Long ass comment but just wanted to let that out rq 😂

Enma

Might be the gray hoodie and short blonde hair, but Meloreon kinda looks like Brig to me 🤣🤣

Ashton Wizard

Not sure how far you guys have watched past this yet, if at all, but just to clarify something before it comes up. The Zoldyck family refer to her as “he” and “brother” but Killua refers to her as “her” and “sister.” He is correct, the Zoldycks are just assholes.
