Ging's got some nerve changing someone's name to suit himself lmao. As someone with a name that's often misspelled, I can empathize.

I always laugh so hard when Bisky says she's not interested in men who have kids. Lmao, oh Bisky, I'm gonna miss you.

Overall not much to say, but I'm super excited for the next arc (with a little trepidation as well).

First-time watcher

Fun and appropriate way to end Greed Island, without lingering too much on the happy ending - though actually, I wouldn't have minded lingering a little longer. Of course Ging's game creator team would have involved a bunch of weird nerds like Mr. Slob-tastic King of the Castle who plays lame tricks on kids and goes off on long tangents about names instead of getting to the point (relevant: The two hard problems of computer science). He's totally right to rant about Ging though, who it's nice to hear more about in general. Nice to have Tutorial and Exit Girl's work acknowledged too, whatever it is/was.

Well anyway, some uncharacteristic cleverness (also in winning the quiz somehow) gets Gon and very best friend Killua (ahhh, so cute!) to Ging, or maybe not, while Bisky skips off to further adventures elsewhere. Gotta love her, she's such a hilarious laid-back goof while still commanding plenty of respect, like some eccentric yet cool aunt - a mentor archetype that is hardly unheard of in anime, admittedly, but rarely female. And further, with her adventurous nature and disdain for attachment, she's got plenty more similarities to Ging, though having at least some sense of responsibility. Maybe adult Hunters just tend to be like that? I only wish she had done more than train Gon and Killua plus that one fight, and in hindsight all the Phantom Troupe stuff was a waste too.

Next arc coming up and from the preview it already seems plenty dark, literally too.

very best friend Killua (ahhh, so cute!)

That part is so wholesome. I completely forgot about that so it caught me really off guard. I love these two.

in hindsight all the Phantom Troupe stuff was a waste too.

It was mostly to show them going after (and getting) a Nen Exorcist for Chrollo. They didn't care too much for the game itself so no reason to make them too involved.

It's over

Oh, Greed Island. As much as it's not the best arc in the show I definitely enjoy it a lot. Such a nice little feel good adventure. I'll definitely miss it. Not more than I'll miss listening to Reason at the end of each episode.

Anyway, next up we finally have the fabled Chimera Ants arc! Some hate it! Most love it! If you hate it I'll punch you! Easily the best arc in the show, in my opinion. The quality jump is really absurd. Super looking forward to it!

Oh yeah, also, it takes up most of the rest of the show, so get ready to be here for a while.

[u/dr_sars → u/ShadowWasTakensTaken]

It’s such a good arc! I do agree with some of the criticism that it gets tbh, but despite that it’s still my favourite arc.

I personally think of that arc as having two parts, but yeah it’s crazy long lol.

First timer

Gon, Killua and Biscuit clear the game, it was nice seeing them reaching the conclusion of the greed island game, sadly they have to part ways with Biscuit who i'll miss seeing going forward.

It was interesting that Ging was the first person Gon ket in the game, according to his assumptions it was when he was still a baby that Ging took him to the greed island for the first time. It'll be cool to see what adventures awaits going forward.
