HxH - Eps. 130 & 131 REACTION *AHHHHHH!* ALL PATRONS

Comments

first time viewer typing my opinions as i watch. just finished ep 130 and havent seen 131 yet. but i didn't see it as pitou preparing for battle when she summoned doctor blythe. i saw it as her being genuinely remorseful and healing herself so that gon can have the chance to attack her while she's vulnerable as her way of apologizing and taking responsibility for her actions. because there's no way gon would be at the same level of strength to defeat her without her putting herself at a disadvantage. i think after seeing the king care so much about komugi, she realized that everybody has someone who they really care about and she took that away from gon. ok started 131 and was so wrong LOL. also omg ive seen a cosplay of that version of gon but i didnt process that it was still 12 year old gon, i thought it was from a time skip or smth, help 😭

I hate seeing him like this! But I felt it was needed for him! Almost vindicating in some sort. 💜

This is going to be me being fully transparent. I felt so much watching these two episodes the second time around then I did the first. I was so upset and brokenhearted for Gon. Surprisingly, I relate with Gon. When unforseen circumstances happen earlier this year (that I had mentioned), I lost it. I was no longer sane. I fell into a dark hole and I went back and forth. I still believe after all of that...it was my fault. I write this last sentence with tears in my eyes. I felt worthless, hopeless, incompetent, powerless, and dumb. My depression hit. I felt ugly. I felt so many things. Not too long ago, I laid down on my mat where I sleep and all of sudden, everything I went through this year played like a movie. "You are a terrible person, you messed up everybody lives, you were this, you were that." Those thoughts constantly arose. To be honest I was. I should have been what they say a parent is though harm i wouldn't do as they assumed. I should have not been so cruel in my beginning years to someone I called family. I shouldn't have sought out to be loved or be seen in some way. That maybe one person, JUST ONE, would notice me. See me. Know that yes I'm flawed but worth love. It's so sad to say it was grieving... I felt like I was decaying and I shrouded myself in a dark room mentally that no one could reach through. I feel tainted even now. Basically I don't care about the end. Maybe I deserve it so to see Gon's turmoil and grief, it brought me right back there. I knew then that healing is not linear. I'm reminded that healing is not linear nor simple. I hold much trauma of my past and after being dealt with such loneliness, betrayal and pain this year by places I thought I could trust, it broke me heavily. The only thing that kept me a bit is people in my life now and even on here in Patreon that gave me laughs and love. Hearing what you two went through with your mom bothers me and hurts me so much especially since I hate hospitals to the CORE after what they put me through and others I've known.. I'm so sorry about your Mom, who I believe is the greatest mother ever! You both are loved immensely and it's as if your Mom said let me show my love for you both through others. Us here on Patreon and those in your life. We love you! And I thank you for giving me a bit of peace through all the darkness I felt this year. That's why I will constantly give my love to you both and everyone on Patreon just like Killua does for Gon. Because maybe just maybe, it's not hopeless. Maybe...there is hope.

Gon didn’t aim to simply put up a “decent fight” against Pitou—he wanted to completely annihilate Pitou. His condition wasn’t about aging himself; it was a sacrifice of his nen and future potential to reach the absolute peak of his physical and nen capabilities as his body envisioned it... all to crush Pitou. The aging effect wasn’t the objective but an unavoidable consequence of his body containing such immense power without breaking apart. If I were to speculate, Gon might have been able to put up a strong fight and possibly defeat Pitou within 5-8 years, assuming he constantly pushed his limits and honed his skills. I'm only thinking.... I wish Kurapika never told Gon about Nen-Vows..

Flo

Bisky's situation is different because if you guys remember, she's old. So, she already achieved her body builder form from YEARS of intense training and just hid it in a small girl's appearance just because she didn't like how she looked. As for Gon, he's only 12 years old at this point...so it's like he fast-forwarded his body's power capacity to a state similar to a body who has had years of training.

Rheyia Pomar

When Gon said he's happy that he got to be just like Kite back then (with the severed arm), that really got me....he was feeling so guilty about Kite's death that he was happy getting injured the same way, as if being redeemed a little bit since he is suffering the same fate as Kite....which we can also assume that he's prepared to die as atonement for his guilt.

I was so shaken by that scene. Gon was relentlessly hopeful

gon hit pitou with a mortal kombat combo 😭

Watching this arc come to a close for the first time is so polarizing. There’s so much happening and for the amount of detailed information, the pacing is quite fast, making it hard to process everything on the first watch. If you ever re-watch hxh from the beginning, it will feel like a totally different experience; since you know what happens, you’ll be able to focus more on details. For example, watching Gon from the start and comparing his thought process with what transpires makes his character feel insanely vivid. If you pay close attention to his ups, downs, logic, and emotions, the line “I feel like… I’ve been redeemed some.”(ep. 131) is just brutal. Our young joyful, upbeat, optimistic adventurer has had his mind broken and been pushed so far past his limit; to the point where he’s equating having his arm ripped off (the same way as his father figure), to being redeemed for his lack of strength to protect/save/help Kite in the first place (as well as the role he played in Kite's death, which Gon felt guilty about). Moving forward things probably won’t go as expected, but believe me the show comes to a very satisfying close (especially since the manga is ongoing, started in 1998). Side note, some other cool characters/perspectives to closely analyze while re-watching: - Phinks, Feitan, Nobunaga, Machi - Zeno, Silva, Kalluto - Meleoron (and other Chimera ants) - Morel, Knov, Hisoka, Razor, Menchi - geography and the relations between all the different factions (Hunter assc, hunter groups and individuals, countries, mafia, phantom troupe, Zoldyks, ect.)

Similar experience, but it was because I ended the episode too early where it was revealed that Kite lost the battle. Having to watch Gon confront manipulated Kite for the first time while his Nen was still sealed by Knuckle broke me. It was horrifying to see Kite being manipulated like that.

krepostii

My jaw was on the floor when I first saw this episode XDD Also.. I miss Wing now

its_aliza

I agree with Angelica but he is a really well written character! I always enjoy watching Pouf so much

its_aliza

SO TRUE.. I can't hold my tears when Killua screams..

its_aliza

GOOOON!! 😭💔

its_aliza

also Killua screaming Gon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at the very end literally breaks me everytime, even after watching the episode over 20 times

ZedStar

Angelica, our resident Pouf hater lolll😂😂

Alpha

Exactly the same, this show aired alongside cartoons when i was like 11-12 years old, I eventually got back to watching it when i turned like 17 and kept up and learned how wrong I was to think it’s just a kids show

ZedStar

I always thought Gon meant it’s time for Pitou to sleep like Kite is already, but I like your interpretation more

ZedStar

I've been waiting 130 episodes for this one, the most famous episode and the best one, the emotions I felt during its air time are indescribable The eerie music is so off putting and incredible, the moment Pitou said that Kite is already dead his eyes got dark and empty, he lost it the moment it was said out loud, and then he goes through all the emotions of grief as you boys beautifully put it with your own story too, he doesn't care what happens because he's giving in to the rage Part of me thought Gon was gonna stay as that shadow-y monster during his transformation and that would've been so terrifying lol Also one last thing when Terpischore (the thing that was controlling dead Pitou) attacked Gon and Killua as Killua dives in to push him I genuienly thought that Killua was gonna get killed that moment, when the shot with blood on the screen showed I paused the episode and cried because Killua is my favorite character haha

ZedStar

Gon used a vow (Nen condition). Kurapika also did the same to fight the Phantom Troupe. We have learned that the stricter the rule, the stronger the power it will enable. The rule Kurapika set for himself was that if he uses his power against anyone besides the Troupe, then he will forfeit his life. When Gon said, "I don't care if this is the end." I took that as him not caring what rule was set or what he had to give up. After that, he said, "I'll use everything", which probably means that he is sacrificing everything he has to offer. As long as he could get the power needed at that moment, Gon did not care. I teared up when Gon said to Pitou, "It's time for you to sleep, too." WHAT DO YOU MEAN TOO?? It felt like Gon was saying that he would also die alongside Pitou :(

bjorken

Pouf is definetly the most diabolical, overthinking drama queen ever!

Angélica Hernández

Now, as I am hearing your guys's story I am both very sad to hear it, as I am also extremly thankful that you guys have enough trust in us to share it. I wish you guys all the best and I hope that you have the same amount of smiles on your face as your viewers have while watching your reactions! :)

Flo

Yes it was vow and covenant with himself, Gon essentially did something similar to Kurapika when he placed a Nen dagger into his heart to achieve a great power, in Gon's case he vowed to himself to use all of his remaining Nen for the rest of his life (when he said "I don't care if this is the end just take everything") to achieve a great power now so he could defeat Pitou. His words, sorrow, guilt, rage and intent to defeat Pitou enabled him to do this instantaneously which placed a very big burden on him.

Angélica Hernández

The anime made a mistake with Pitou's line. They're not supposed to say that Gon's power is equal to the king but rather "his fangs may reach the King". On the other side, Pitou just knows the Meruem pre-rose, not the current Meruem who is much stronger

Fe

True it was also mentioned that post mortem Nen can be considered a type of curse and its incredibly difficult to remove even by Nen exorcicts if it doen't kill the victim.

Angélica Hernández

These couple episodes broke me when I watched them for the first time especially as just looking at Killua's expression you can tell that this is all wrong and that it shouldn't have happened... On any case the show still goes on and the king is still out there stronger than ever, I wonder where do you think the show is going now with less than 20 episodes to go tbh.

Kiryuu Yona

true, but that episode is too far i dont think they will remember that

luma

Been waiting for yall to get to this episode since day one XD

That's Pretty Dope

When I first watched this show, I was expecting the vibes to be similar to that of a kids show, like Pokémon. Boy was I wrong. Ever since I watched this at early middle school, it felt like no other show can come close to this. It was truly unfair to watch a show like this at such a young age. Having most shows/cartoons that came after, feel like child’s play.

(The Real) Brandon

P.S :Post-Mortem Nen was mentioned by Feitan and Phinx when they meet Gon and Killua at the Yorknew auction after Chrollo had left the Phantom Troupe. It was given as the reason why they could not kill Kurapika, because it would likely kill Chrollo.

DubwoolWooloo

Gon drank some youpi juice then said "Let's take this outside." 😭

Snix

Pitou was being sincere when she apologized. You’ll notice that even during that conversation with Gon she was awakening. She asked for his name. And she recalled that he was there when Kite was attacked. You only have to look at her demeanour or her eyes from when she was born to now to see how different she is. The feral chimera ant she used to be is long gone. When she decided to fight Gon, it was purely out of duty to the King she served. It wasn’t like when she attacked Kite the first time just for the fun of it. She did what she thought she needed to do to protect the King.

Alpha

yes :D, its just amazing to actually realize what these experienced Nen Hunters actually felt, when looking at Gon. I definitely didnt expect THIS kind of monster to appear out of our jolly little Gon :D

Flo

Gon killed the armadillo and, crushed him to death

Emperor Nagrom

The series could've ended right here and I'd be satisfied

Jinx's Baby Daddy(Brandon)

There was lots of hints of foreshadowing about what Gon was capable of but Wing definitely called it. Don't forget other characters in the last 130 episodes also have commented on Gon being a monster but who could ever guess that sweet little boy would ever rage like this

Jinx's Baby Daddy(Brandon)

Exactly how you guys have guessed. Pouf used this strategy to imitate Komugi to let Pitou know that Komugi was safe. Pitous order was to keep Komugi alive at all costs! Pouf analyzed that if Pitou didn't know that Komugi was in danger, Pitou wouldnt have used her full strength against Gon, but would have rather found a way to escape in order to protect Komugi (as it was the King's order). By letting Pitou know that Komugi was safe, she would use her full power to defeat the enemy (Gon), instead of rushing to help Komugi. I would say that Pouf is definitely the smartest and strategically intelligent member out of all the Royal Guards.

Flo

Let us not forget after teaching Gon Nen ALMOST EXACTLY 100 episodes ago, Wing said "Master..I may have awakened an incredible beast"

Flo

Post-mortem Nen is a characteristic of Nen where the user dies, but the abilities continue to exist, and this Nen becomes much more powerful than before the user died. The ability usually continues to exist due to the person's grudge or hatred against someone. This Post-mortem Nen is overused in the manga, and will make an impression in the final arc. Pitou initiated Post-mortem Nen resurrected himself using his ability, only a few percentage of nen users can accomplish this feat.

HERE WE GOOO

Jinx's Baby Daddy(Brandon)

Alright, confession time, Jared and Jordan. When I first watched the chimera ant arc and Kite was "defeated" by Pitou, I have believed since the beginning of that arc that Kite was either still alive or could be "resurrected" by Pitou. I felt like the dumbest watcher when y'all were watching it and every other fellow viewer with you jumped on the wagon and told you the truth that Kite was dead. I legitimately was convinced Kite could be saved. This was my #1 drive pushing me through this arc, given how heavy many of the moments were. I let that RAGING, FALSE HOPE carry my heart through this arc, and as soon as Pitou admitted to him that he was just "animated" dead, I for real lost it. I was punching a wall and really felt for Gon. My personality matches him and Yuji almost completely, and I felt in such disarray. As he was breaking inside, I was holding my chest, pulling out some hairs, trying to keep it together. Never ever has an anime scene (besides Armin RIP scene) completely ripped apart my soul. I wanted Pitou completely torn apart because all that false hope burst out of its dam into merciless revenge and malice toward Pitou. As a note at the end of this, this is my second watch through, I've been told by elite viewers of the anime, Pitou was sorry and they did change. Pitou was just a young and bloodthirsty creature back when Kite was murdered, but after Komugi and witnessing how the King cared for her, Pitou HAD changed. That doesn't excuse them from their actions, but just to give a certain light here so we aren't blinded by our rage for Gon's broken soul.

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT

serenity

Gon’s transformation is a result of his desperation, anger, and immense sorrow. Gon makes a fateful decision to sacrifice his future potential in exchange for a power boost in the present moment. Gon uses his remaining potential, which could have taken him years of training to develop, and instead condenses it all into a single, concentrated burst of power. He effectively sacrifices his future life force and Nen abilities, which takes a massive toll on his body and psyche. This decision transforms him into a much more powerful version of himself in the present, but at a grave cost. I think Gon is 12 years old during this battle. So imagine he sacrifice his 50years or so future potential, nen and life force into this just one present moment. Nen abilities usually is vows and restrictions/conditions.

Sufiyaki Teriyaki

There is a very small but amazing detail in episode 131 when Killua saved gon from pitou's last attack. In the whole Anime it was the first time ever you could hear Killua's footsteps. Absolutely amazing detail

Mankichiro

I dropped everything as soon as the notification came up! Lol. I can't wait to watch your reactions!

Eb

So excited to watch this! I've been waiting for this!
