@@ellie7252 "So the boss NGL found Netero's balls and then proceeded to fight American President for Jesus' corpse using them? Man, HxH sure took a turn"
Netero must have held some very complicated emotions in his final moments. I mean think about it from his perspective, he has dedicated his entire life to martial arts, something that is beautiful and yet all the power and potential he could muster was nothing in comparison to what a cheap bomb made to kill people could accomplish, it's a dark irony showing how insignificant our individual efforts are in the face of humanity's collective will, and how the ugliness of humanity overcomes that which we find beautiful. Netero must have desperately wanted to win through the beauty of warriorship rather than the twisted ugliness of humanity, but he had a duty to do and held pride as a human too, not just as a warrior, hence why he admitted defeat as a warrior by telling Meruem his name but still mocked him as a human. Also, Gon and Killua putting their experience in the Yorknew arc to use here, with the whole hostage deal.
Netero already knew his power was nothing in the grand scheme of things. That's why he forbid people from going to the dark continent, because the powers there go beyond a physical fight.
@@ShiveringEroticKingBanana That was before he did any of his training, and he only says that it was a different kind of strength than what he was seeking, not that it was way beyond him.
@@angrashadow2958 You're right he never said he coudn't handle it. But still I don't see how he could handle any of the Five Threats of the Dark Continent. Ai I assume is the species Nanika comes from. Brion is labeled as an A class threat when Meruem was only B. Netero could surely defeat the victims of the Zobae Disease but how can he fight a disease itself? You can't slap germs. The Hellbell and Pap look like he could Physically defeat them both assuming he could force a confrontation.
6:2029:35 In Brazil (where is located the bigest japanese comunity outside Japan) there is a poem which after was musicalized and became top100 brazilian music of all time by its importance. Rose of Hiroshima: Think of those children Mute, telepathic Think of those girls Blind, inexact Think of those women Tattered, altered Think of those wounds As warm roses But, oh, do not forget The rose, the rose The rose of Hiroshima The hereditary rose The radioactive rose Stupid and useless The cirrhosis rose The atomic anti-rose With no color, no perfume No rose, no nothing.
Just i quick thing to notice here: the amount of people that the use of miniature rose killed is around the same(actually superior by a few hundreds of thousands, but the same in millions) amount of people that the Hunters had to(mostly, Killua saved some) let die to be able to eliminate the king and the ants.
Just a small coincidence that I really liked: There's a Brazilian poem called Hiroshima's Rose, that was made in 1946, it's a protest about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I always thought Togashi might have read that poem and named the Miniature Rose after it.
Netero disappeared as soon as the bomb exploded. No living being resists that impact. Meruem was charred only because of the impressive Nen that his body has, otherwise there would have been nothing left.
I share Milena's feelings regarding Gon's actions so much. The truth is that we don't know what would have happened if Pitou hadn't gone with him or attacked him. Beyond what he says, we don't know what would have happened.
i disagree gon only killed that one soldier that provoked him by talking about how he likes to eat guts while people are alive. then threatens to kill komugi i dont think he would really kill her but thats headcannon cant really prove it. meruem killed way more for way less tried to kill pitou but she happened to be stronger than normal way different.
@@ybfromoblock3381 I understand the urge and I even agree with some of the message I too have seen the gon and meruem comparison video essays but people definitely take it too far they really have Milena and Lola just waiting to condemn him instead of just reacting without expectations
@@tyruswillier7358 I am talking about current Gon not when he was in NGL. And Gon was resolved to kill Komugi here if Pitou decided to pull some mischief again. If the resolve wasn't concrete, it wouldn't be as strongly reflected in his ren and Pitou wouldn't feel threatened like she did.
@@disprofundis3477 well thanks for spoiling bro I should've told you I didn't read the manga. thought I did guess that was a different comment still disappointing. Managed to avoid spoilers for years and you ruined it hope you feel good winning our little argument here. And Is it stated anywhere about that nen thing you claim being a lie detector? or is it just how you Interpret nen? Cause I thought his resolve was powerful enough to kill her that's why she was scared and he was willing to threaten komugi maybe he was willing to kill her was it confirmed in the story or did the author? Or are you just asserting it cause that's what you think?
One of the things that makes this entire thing so heavy is that we have no idea what gon's thinking, literally. We can hear Killua and Pitou thoughts fine, but nothing on Gon, not even the narrator gives us insight to it. We don't know what's actually going on, it's all how the characters and we, the audience, react to him. Did he really knew Pitou was bluffing with the three hours or was he just impatient? Could he really tell that Pitou had finished or was it just a happy coincidence? Was he bluffing when threatening komugis life or not? Is all up for us to make our own conclusions...
Berserk 97 reactions WOULD go hard, idk why everyones bringing it up here, maybe you mention it in the video (haven't watched yet), but I would love it!
I don't think my boy Gon needs defending any more, but just in case I want to say two things: - As others have said, this is a war. And I believe that whatever questionable decisions Gon has made, he has always done so with the success of the mission in mind. In other words, I disagree with the many fans who think that Gon is out on a personal vendetta alone, that he has no room for anything but hatred for Pitou who killed his dear friend; that is certainly the case, but at the same time he is aware of the gravity and the stakes of the mission. It shows in his keen observations of the battlefield, and the enemy, from the very beginning of the palace invasion. I guess what I'm trying to say is, that Gon is no mere child throwing a tantrum, but a war veteran in the making. I got that from the first episodes of the arc, when he saw the brutalized remains of Ponzu. The look of disgust on his face was a first in the series. He had seen brutality before, but never like this. And it only got worse from there. - Unlike universally loved Killua, Gon has never killed an innocent being.
He's mostly on a personal vendetta alone but his goals happen to match the mission's, that's why the others members of the Alliance never really stopped him. If he was really stuck to the mission he wouldn't fight Pitou alone, since their odds would be higher with more allies (and yeah even though Killua had said in this episode that it would be a risk if he went with Gon, it was more him coping than anything else. Meleoron and specially Knuckle would also help a lot).
Yep, Gon's shrewd decisions from time to time prove that he has the mission and wellbeing of his comrade in some corner of his mind as well, with the personal vendetta being the driving force behind the resolve. He is not a cardboard struck to singular pattern of functioning. I also laugh at people calling him mentally broken or some shit, like try living between extreme life and death situations and people would call your smartest of decisions as unhinged or psychotic.
I agree that he's aware, but I still think he's mostly only using that knowledge to ensure his personal vendetta goes well. His stake in this is primarily Kite, so Pitou comes way above his disdain for ants in general. But in fairness, he does also specifically call out Pitou as that "thing", so I'm sure there's a good amount of general hatred towards the "evil" ants in there, too, so yeah, it makes sense for him to be acutely aware of every aspect of the situation. As for the Killua comparison, I've never considered it too fair. It's fair to hold Killua accountable for a chunk of that, but he was to an extent literally mind controlled, and the remainder was a lot of brainwashing too - his present character retains little to none of that. After the Zoldyck mini-arc, he was... completely innocent. And still leaves plenty of room for growth too. In contrast, Gon begins as the innocent youth, and, well... trauma. He absolutely loses himself in many ways, and I'd be wary to come close to excusing most of what he did in this part of CA. I know you aren't doing this, but treating his vendetta against Pitou as somehow ok is just a massive no - very reminiscent, as Lola's pointed out, of Mustang lashing out against Envy. But yes, there's still *more* to him, fine. I don't think it's fair, nor compelling to look only at net results and be like "Gon's only killing people who deserve it". That's telling of the actions, but we have the benefit of seeing a lot of the emotions, too, and they're... not ideal. It's not like we're looking at anything close to a war general, he just shares the mental acuity of one. He is absolutely still a child. Tantrum isn't fair either of course, mind. You say he's making "questionable decisions... with the success of the mission in mind". I don't disagree, but I think that's deceptive wording. It's a technicality, and undermines his mental anguish. I mean that sentence alone could apply to somebody totally calm, collected, calculating, and rational. Gon doesn't fit most of those. I agree that he doesn't need defending, but because there's no defense to be given. He lost himself in this arc, and his final showdown with Pitou is anything but a massive win. It's possible I'm misinterpreting your intent, or conflating your take with many others who completely and entirely stand by Gon as if there's any sane person there to stand by. They root for what Gon *does* and ignore what he's *become*
Gon had the plan of taking Komugi as hostage and making sure she saves Kite, so, i think he cant be serious when he said dont delay me or I kill Komugi, i think was just to controll Pitou, has her under his control (Ironically, just as she has done with Kite and others, and you have made a good reflection on this, every time she thought something, Gon beat her to it).
@@liamace1107 no he would have killed pitou right there with her broken arm if he can kill her in a few minutes he could have done it in that room he's just trying to get kite back still thanks to killua calming him down and reminding him but if he knew or thought that to be impossible he would do what he ends up doing fighting pitou
so basically, this whole arc is a metaphor for war, touching a lot on World War 2, with Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Gon and Killua being innocent soldiers with a positive outlook at the start, only for it to end with them in despair like many soldiers at end of WW1 and WW2. Gon and Killua started arc as kids but are leaving it emotionally broken.
But they quickly go back to being their regular selves, Gon and Killua really tested their limits, physically and emotionally but I don't think their nature changed much.
@@uwotm8634it indeed changed. Now ofc they won't be having PTSD or personality changes because of a 1 hour long mission, when they have already been in such life and death situation many times before. This makes sense for Killua, his trauma is associated with the straining of his relationship with Gon. And we do see the aftermath of it, the decisions Killua after chairman, saving his sister, achieving his own complete identity, returning Gon's favour, equalling their status in the friendship and finally separating with him. As for Gon, his trauma is associated with the mission itself and is evidently reflected in the state of his body following the arc. While for psychological changes, we see that during his first meeting with Ging when he starts crying. This shows the true nature of his pain behind the rage and it is soothed by the much important conversation with Ging. Lastly, after seeking forgiveness from Kite and Killua not blaming him further relieved him of any guilt. He also lost his nen and learnt a valuable lesson of what's important in life. Later in the manga we do see very subtle changes on his outlook of his journey, things that have changed. There is a big room for redemption for Gon that might be explored later.
@@disprofundis3477 True, yeah on second thought I think Killua has learned a lot about friendship and not letting people walk over him, he was mad at Gon and made him apologise. This whole anime basically had the most changes for Killua. It seems now in the manga the focus is on Kurapika and Gon will eventually return and they will show his changes.
@@uwotm8634I think Killua changed after this experience, especially in relation to Gon. I'm not saying they aren't still close friends, but Gon's dreams aren't his dreams anymore. He found something else to live for and also began to seek his own purpose. Killua realized that he couldn't live entirely for someone else without considering his own feelings.
@@libellum7085poor Killua just wanted a friend and an equal. But he somehow outgrows Gon who also learns super fast. Killua is more sensitive, he's objective too, he always look reality in the face. Killua has more experience dealing with his own inner turmoil, he was so incredibly lonely during childhood, and that solitary nature makes him so indestructible. The amount of suffering he can endure is off the charts, inhuman. supernatural. And Gon is, well....not that welltrained. He's all raw and rugged and wild. Their friendship is so natural, I believe after healing from the traumas both of them will come back together stronger. And it makes sense for them to live their own lives. They need to do their growing up alone from time to time. Their friendship cannot be tainted. ❤
21:24 interesting point and it feels like a parallel to Gon : losing your most important person in the most evil way makes you loose your mind and Youpi's response is "Let's kill them all", pretty much smth the PT would do ...so Gon imo is pretty good in comparison 😅😅
gaah I hate how that adaptation removes you know what, it really removes such an important and relatable part of Gut's character.. but it's the best anime adaptation there is for it, so I will tolerate..!!
I believe that Gon’s threat is clearly false because, if not, the logical sequence of events is quite absurd. Think about the following order of events: Gon kills komugi, Pitou no longer has a reason to hold back and kills him and the rest. Lol. and I think that Gon, no matter how angry he is, is smarter than that.
Gon came here 100% prepared that he would either defeat Pitou himself or die trying. Komugi was A wild card. So even if she is killed, Gon would still follow plan 1, irrespective of the possibility of him losing. That's why he gave her A warning first, instead of outright killing Komugi, considering the number of stupid stunts Pitou tried to pull off during the healing.
It’s people from Patreon who have early access to episodes. You can also pay for it if you desire to. Most reactions you’re seeing on YT are made way ahead except for some shows i would guess.
You should check the image of the person with radiation exposure. Please remember that this anime was made in a country, where a nuclear bomb was dropped.
Why r y’all always the last to get to the best show the boys and house of the dragons are playing and y’all still watching shows that barely get any views
gon threatens to kill komugi is a nice comeback to the moment he asks chrollo how can he kill people who have nothing to do with him...
I don't think he was going to kill her, I think he was just threatening Pitou so she can obey him and fight or smth

Gon had the plan of taking Komugi as hostage and making sure she saves Kite, so, i think he cant be serious when he said dont delay me or I kill Komugi, i think was just to controll Pitou, has her under his control (Ironically, just as she has done with Kite and others, and you have made a good reflection on this, every time she thought something, Gon beat her to it).
Sit this one out pal 😂😂🧠
Gon is in pure rage here, he isn't thinking clearly and absolutely would have killed Komugi had anything pushed him further
@@liamace1107 no he would have killed pitou right there with her broken arm if he can kill her in a few minutes he could have done it in that room he's just trying to get kite back still thanks to killua calming him down and reminding him but if he knew or thought that to be impossible he would do what he ends up doing fighting pitou
Oh. After this episode will be "that" episode
I've been waiting to see this for a while, I love how much Gon was a menace here.
The King was Aramened 😂, you get it!
A nice, chill episode 🙂
Loving the reactions as always my girls ❤
so basically, this whole arc is a metaphor for war, touching a lot on World War 2, with Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Gon and Killua being innocent soldiers with a positive outlook at the start, only for it to end with them in despair like many soldiers at end of WW1 and WW2. Gon and Killua started arc as kids but are leaving it emotionally broken.
But they quickly go back to being their regular selves, Gon and Killua really tested their limits, physically and emotionally but I don't think their nature changed much.
@@uwotm8634it indeed changed. Now ofc they won't be having PTSD or personality changes because of a 1 hour long mission, when they have already been in such life and death situation many times before. This makes sense for Killua, his trauma is associated with the straining of his relationship with Gon. And we do see the aftermath of it, the decisions Killua after chairman, saving his sister, achieving his own complete identity, returning Gon's favour, equalling their status in the friendship and finally separating with him.
As for Gon, his trauma is associated with the mission itself and is evidently reflected in the state of his body following the arc. While for psychological changes, we see that during his first meeting with Ging when he starts crying. This shows the true nature of his pain behind the rage and it is soothed by the much important conversation with Ging. Lastly, after seeking forgiveness from Kite and Killua not blaming him further relieved him of any guilt. He also lost his nen and learnt a valuable lesson of what's important in life.
Later in the manga we do see very subtle changes on his outlook of his journey, things that have changed. There is a big room for redemption for Gon that might be explored later.
@@disprofundis3477 True, yeah on second thought I think Killua has learned a lot about friendship and not letting people walk over him, he was mad at Gon and made him apologise. This whole anime basically had the most changes for Killua.
It seems now in the manga the focus is on Kurapika and Gon will eventually return and they will show his changes.
@@uwotm8634I think Killua changed after this experience, especially in relation to Gon. I'm not saying they aren't still close friends, but Gon's dreams aren't his dreams anymore. He found something else to live for and also began to seek his own purpose. Killua realized that he couldn't live entirely for someone else without considering his own feelings.
@@libellum7085poor Killua just wanted a friend and an equal. But he somehow outgrows Gon who also learns super fast. Killua is more sensitive, he's objective too, he always look reality in the face.
Killua has more experience dealing with his own inner turmoil, he was so incredibly lonely during childhood, and that solitary nature makes him so indestructible. The amount of suffering he can endure is off the charts, inhuman. supernatural.
And Gon is, well....not that welltrained. He's all raw and rugged and wild. Their friendship is so natural, I believe after healing from the traumas both of them will come back together stronger. And it makes sense for them to live their own lives. They need to do their growing up alone from time to time.
Their friendship cannot be tainted. ❤
21:24 interesting point and it feels like a parallel to Gon : losing your most important person in the most evil way makes you loose your mind and Youpi's response is "Let's kill them all", pretty much smth the PT would do
...so Gon imo is pretty good in comparison 😅😅
spot on! ❤
2:11 I'm happy in advance to hear it ^^ this is gonna be so good !!
reemember....
Gon is dangerous, his mind its broken
I mean, the bomb was inside Netero, so...
Need them to react to Berserk (1997)❤
gaah I hate how that adaptation removes you know what, it really removes such an important and relatable part of Gut's character.. but it's the best anime adaptation there is for it, so I will tolerate..!!
Not worth it, the anime ruined the best moment of the manga.
Watch Nana or Fruits Basket (2019) next.
広島と長崎を知ってくれていて嬉しく思います
hopefully, everyone knows. it would be too sad otherwise.
Can't wait for the next couple of episodes
34:10 The way Meruem was seemingly wavering between animal and human, Gon threatening to kill Komugi can also be seen as him wavering in some ways
"can be seen as wavering" yeah in that moment hes just a monster, no wavering necessary
１８分で４１６３回視聴 … Σ(ﾟДﾟ)
まぁ、この２人の反応面白いもんなぁ。
15:50 the 1st time i hear them saying very wrong
I truly enjoy your post discussions ❤
I believe that Gon’s threat is clearly false because, if not, the logical sequence of events is quite absurd. Think about the following order of events: Gon kills komugi, Pitou no longer has a reason to hold back and kills him and the rest. Lol. and I think that Gon, no matter how angry he is, is smarter than that.
In this scenario Pitou doesn't obey Gon, and will obviously kill him and others so killing Komugi is just to spite Pitou
Gon came here 100% prepared that he would either defeat Pitou himself or die trying. Komugi was A wild card. So even if she is killed, Gon would still follow plan 1, irrespective of the possibility of him losing. That's why he gave her A warning first, instead of outright killing Komugi, considering the number of stupid stunts Pitou tried to pull off during the healing.
How are all the comments from 1 month even thought this video was released 18 minutes ago-
I don’t know how but they are re-releasing episodes they watched over a month ago
It’s people from Patreon who have early access to episodes. You can also pay for it if you desire to. Most reactions you’re seeing on YT are made way ahead except for some shows i would guess.
Dudes right it's Patreon. It's another site most UA-camrs use. Basically you just pay them for more stuff than the stuff on UA-cam.
