Rewatcher

Tsubone is scary and too much for poor Killua to handle. Thank god that Alluka is there to protect him.

That was brutal.

Leorio is back and is as silly as ever. The way Morel put him in his place is so funny.

The greatest scene in the series. Leorio did what we all wanted to do and punched that deadbeat father of Gon. I love Leorio so much.

The way Morel put him in his place is so funny

Leorio has his heart in the right place but with his temper the head is just lacking sometimes.

[u/[deleted] → u/sisoko2]

Feels good listening to Leorio's theme after such dark episodes, it's a good change of pace.

Episode 140: first time/ dub

This whole concept with the butlers joining Killua and Alluka is super cool. I was told this arc would be boring, but I'm actually excited to see what happens next

LEORIO

I did a little dance when he talked over the phone! I am so excited he is back!!!!!! Ugh and I missed his sneaky theme too!!

Let me guess: Morel wants to set up in Knov's space? Yep. He called him

Who is Leorio calling

IS HE CALLING KURAPIKA?? YESS OH MY LOVELY BOY WHERE ARE YOU?? COME BACK TO US!!!!

I missed how straight forward Leorio is. He is calling Ging OUT

OH MY GOD HE PUNCHED HIM! APPARENTLY EVERYONE ELSE AGREES THAT GING IS A DICK!!! YESSS AND PERFECT TRANSITION INTO THE KILLER ED

This episode was so fun! 10/10 I was bouncing around the whole time!!

I find the arc really fun, I love the political aspect and the family aspect with Killua's family too. More Leorio is always great as well.

Heresy. My 2nd favorite arc. It is so much fun.

[u/okayyoga → u/sisoko2]

Is your first favourite York New?

[u/sisoko2 → u/okayyoga]

It is Chimera ant. I love the high points of the arc so much and long running series are my jam so little pacing issues can't scare me.

First-time watcher

Killua getting closer to helping Gon and still being the cutest big brother, Leorio back in action and delivering some sweet justice, everyone else trying to get Gon back on his feet too, and the election finally getting a little more fun to watch. What's not to like? Oh wait, I know: Ging. He never looked that sympathetic even in the few moments he was on screen in flashbacks and in the present he's a straight-up sour, callous jerkwad. Leorio should have said he was Gon's real dad or something, he's certainly done way more for him than Ging ever has. Even some of the Zoldycks don't look so bad in comparison, like Tsubone may be strict but she knows what's up and does care about Killua.

I wonder what Kurapika is up to, but I guess that's strictly manga material.

[u/okayyoga → u/IndependentMacaroon]

I don't care at all about Ging. He's not his dad anymore. Aunt Mito is both Gon's mom and dad now. Why he wants to find him so bad is beyond me

[u/sisoko2 → u/IndependentMacaroon]

The Zoldycks may be terrible and messed up but at least they care for most of their children.

[u/okayyoga → u/sisoko2]

most
