It seems to be referencing the damage IRL that radiation caused, but this does seem more like a poison since it continues to grow and spread from person to person, infecting beyond those who actually were in the area of the explosion
Seeing Meruem regain his humanity in that moment is my favorite scene from the entire series. I'm a major sucker for redemption arcs so although I obviously disliked him for being ruthless at the start Meruem ended up becoming my favorite character after all.
The OST that plays at the end of episode 134, when Meruem remembers Komugi, is called "Elegy of the Dynasty". An elegy is a type of poem used as a lament for the dead, so you can interpret the name the name of the song as the "lament for the death of the dynasty". This is exactly what happens in that scene, because when Meruem remembers Komugi he fully embraces his human side, spelling the end of his dynasty as king of the chimera ants. He then leaves Poof behind, and goes off to die as a human. This OST also plays when he tries to kneel before Palm, which is very fitting as well.
3:26 "It's mad how deep this goes" That's called the writing of a masterpiece. Togashi by this time knew how to write an absolute masterpiece. Always sad to think we may never see it finished.
They made it pretty clear in the episode, but the Rose is a stand in for the Atomic Bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It meant to represent the absolute worst of humanity Evolution/Malice
People often say that Gon lost his humanity while Meruem gained it, however I have always considered that Meruem was evolving, mentally, into something beyond humans.
"he still hasn't beat her" You'd know if he had xD Komugi is a subconscious nen user who seems to have a condition that she'll die if she loses a game of Gungi. If she had lost, she'd be dead xD The rose is basically an off-brank nuke and the poison is its equivalent to radiation poisoning. Either Togashi didn't want to use an actual nuke because of the implication for Japan, or he was really attached to his "contagious poison" concept and decided to use an imaginary bomb because of that. Either way, the Rose stands in for a nuke. "there's no way the king would die to poison" Individual strength is nothing in front of a simple bomb. A cheap rose is as strong as a hundred kings.
Needless to say, the model for the Poor Man's Rose is "nuclear weapons." And poison can be replaced with the expression of atomic bomb exposure. Truly the worst weapon in human history.
Bro needs to think like why are you y’ell at pouf for not knowing that pitou is dead when the last time he saw gon he probably thought that he was no match for pitou so obviously he going to think that she is still in the fight
It was cut from the anime but in the manga they show that Gyro really became an ant with all his memories but his pride was so strong he refused to obey the queen and just left.
An ant who gained humanity and a human who lost humanity. Truly a masterpiece, alongside Welfin being one of the MVP
Meruem never felt any hate and Gon was consumed by it
From this episode alone Welfin low key became one of my fav chimera ants. Peak writing honestly
the poison is actually the radiation from nukes lol
Exactly.

@Andrew-qu7lq
That's how radiation in organic material works
@@Andrew-qu7lqits called radiation poisoning for a reason
@@hoorsbunker1250i was just about to say this
You're almost there
Watching in hindsight is funny lol. I thought he was going to figure it all out but man goes "Theyre going to drop another bomb?" Killed me

Nukes and nuclear radiation being OP in reality and HXH, please nerf
Pls patch before the US starts WW3

Narrator-sama paid off his 2nd mortgage with this round.
I love how part of why Welfin remembered Komugi was because his nose was running with snot just like hers 😭😭
Haha you're right!
I needa be reborn as a chimera because palm glowed tf up

Fully deep the last lines the narrator said, everything really came full circle and the King chose a side.

Netero died like a human (suicide) and Meruem died like an insect (insecticide).
