Alicia: *Saying how badly she wants to see Gon snap*
Well, you wanted it, and it sure happened
Be careful what you wish for I guess
*one finger curls on the monkey's paw*
Yep. Here's the murderer she wanted so badly. Super important to her that a CHILD become a MURDERER.
@@friendlyneighbourhooddegen4739 we won't be seeing Gon for a long time
@@friendlyneighbourhooddegen4739 Of all the times Gon reaffirmed to both Alicia and Azu that he doesn't f#$% around with half-measures, you'd think they'd have learned by now that wishing to see Gon snap wasn't exactly the best thing to wish for.
As far as what the Nen deal is, "I'll use everything." Best way I've heard it described is that Gon wrote a blank check on his soul.
Basically yeah "give me the power to crush her, I'll take whatever consequences are needed to make that happen".
Damn, "wrote a blank check on your soul" goes unfathomably hard
Bro sacrificed his MC status with this one lol
Kurapika is literally the current MC of HxH manga
@@dvl_jhoThe only other mangas/animes ive seen permanently switch MCs is Akame Ga Kill and JJBA(even though in jjba its a temporary switch
"Did Gon snap?"
"Yes."
"What did it cost?"
"Everything."

Alicia: "Man, I hope Gon snaps already, I want to see he go nuts."
There you go Alicia, you got what you wanted. The only problem, is that you forgot how Nen works, because nothing is free in HxH, just saying.
Nothing free just in general. No great power fantasy here, just the harsh reality of what usually happens when you go off the deep end.
Good time to remind people that a rule or covenant is what makes nen multiple times stronger. Just what rule has gon set for himself? What did he mean when he said "I'll use everything"
@@viniciushenrique6672 Can’t wait for “Hot Take: I want her to die.” to come back.
@@NoNo-vn8debasically used up his entire lifespan and his ability to use nen in order to reach his full potential temporarily so that he can garantee killing pitou
@@mastouriedam5845I'd guess it was something along the lines of (unconsciously) "I will give up my ability to ever use nen again and my life force for enough power to easily kill Pitou, and only until Pitou is dead." That would be an incredibly powerful, specific, condition.
The Chimera Ant Arc, where a human becomes a monster, and a monster becomes a human.
exactly
Alicia then : Gon needs to snap
Alicia now : Killua u need to stop him
lol
She was still laughing about it right up until there might be consequences, then suddenly it was a problem. Like... Whaaaat? You mean there might be consequences for a 13-year old DESTROYING HIMSELF in order to KILL SOMEONE? But who could have foreseeeeen thiiiiiiis! 😱
@@jessicawhitmore5350 yeah same thing happened with Komugi remeber Alicia said that she is in favour of killing komugi in previous video
Shingeki vibes 😂
In case you forgot, nen can linger after the user dies, and in some cases can be stronger(thats why they couldnt kill the bomber in Greed Island). Pitou basically programmed her nen to do a final attack after she died to try and kill Gon.
Yeah, she puppeted her own corpse with her post-death nen curse.
It also mirrors the very first tiny chimera ants we saw, that bit Killua even after being shot
She filled the conditions to trigger post mortem Nen, thanks to having an intense desire to protect the King and kill Gon as she died, so her Nen remained and tried to accomplish that.
To explain Gon's transformation:
Gon went into a covenant with himself. He gained all the power and potential that he will ever have in his life, but at the sacrifice of his life when the power burns up.
Basically: "I don't care if this is the end, so give me everything I will ever have."
Yeah exactly, in the manga it says like "I will use everything I'll ever have", not sure why he doesn't say it in the anime.
@@Grisak_Probably cause the line feels pretty awkward. It makes more sense if he doesn't know exactly how it works. I can't see Gon of all people planning to do that but doing it on instinct makes way more sense for him
Plus his aura output is still the same since increasing it requires training.
So if he fully matures naturally to the point he obtains the same amount of total aura, he'll be at least a dozen times stronger .
That's without even counting the advanced technique he'd develop by then, since this was just a basic jajanken.
@@Grisak_ The "everything I'll ever have" is the interpretation in the official translation made by Viz. The actual Japanese line is closer to "So I will use everything." The Viz translation isn't necessarily inaccurate, as they're clearly just trying to make what Gon is ultimately doing more obvious, even if they have to change what Gon actually says.
@@Regu269 He was definitely relying on instinct, rather that rigid rules, that's even why he's still alive. If he'd relied on rules he'd have just specifically created an ability that took everything in exchange for power, but since it was more of an instinct-based ability than a purposeful one, he was fortunate enough not to have to sacrifice his entire life for it. He just wanted everything he could get (his peak power), in exchange for anything and "anything" turned out to be just short of killing him instantly.
I know Hisoka mad as hell when he saw gon Transform to his adult form 😭🙏
Hisoka: What do you mean there was an invation of giant ants?? I knew I shouldn't have gone on vacation
Yeah true, he'd actually just lose interest because he threw away all his potential. Nothing to look forward to anymore
@@kamyabjafariYou are completely correct but the joke is that Hisoka only likes kids 💀
@@BonfireAKAGhostsaltchannel oh god I didn't think of it that way 💀
@@kamyabjafariAlthough what you said is the actual cannon explanation
8:41 Thing is, Pouf is a royal guard and incredibly overpowered, just like Pitou and Youpi. It makes sense that this kind of subterfuge is being used now exactly because he is weakened and desperate, as he probably did not see the need for it beforehand.
True full power pouf would probably stomp the squad.
We needed Gon to go Daddy mode to kill Pitou and Killua's Godspeed was only good enough to slow down Youpi.
Heck, a weak clone of Pouf almost managed to kill Komugi before Killua fried him
@@furiousdestroyah9999I keep forgetting that he gave up like 97% of his power to the king cause of how powerful he is
@furiousdestroyah9999 Pouf is by far the weakest one of the royal guards (and it isn't close), but he's been the biggest pest due to his annoying clones and intelligence
Also, you can pick any nobody from the Hunter Exam, and they'll turn Komugi to dust. Almost killing her isn't a feat
@@hewhoshallacquirepowerando1266 almost Killing under the protection of killua is the real feat for pouf
@@hewhoshallacquirepowerando1266 I mean, he was absolutely created as an equal to the other royal guards, and while not nearly as battle oriented as Youpi, he theoretically could be a problem even for Netero at full power (as stabilished earlier when comparing Pitou to Netero).
Nen is super complex and HxH does not lend itself easily to powerscaling (thank god), but it is stated that all the members of the Royal Guard were problems to be circumvented, not bruteforced through.
Even if he is more of a trickster/manipulator archetype, at a base level those three stand firmly above the best humanity has to offer, and that's what makes them such an interesting obstacle.
With Gon's inner monologue about blaming himself and Pitou, I wonder if his transformation was a way for Gon to punish himself and Pitou at the same time.
That's my interpretation too.
I think he was just in a very dark place and this time without Killua there to snap him out of his emotional and self destructive behavior. That's just how Gon acts, he didn't want to punish himself with Genthru to be willing to blow his arms off, and he still thought Kite was alive when he was pushing to fight Pitou and would have potentially sacrificed himself and Kite (as far as he knew at least) if Killua wasn't there to remind him what their priorities were.
To me this is just what his depression looks like, he wanted to snap back in the tower but the situation didn't allow for it. This time there's no Killua to set him right, there's no hope for Kite being recovered to worry about, there's no Komugi to confuse his morality, there's just him and the monster who killed Kite. So now he can just let his darkest emotions take hold.
Aight I was waiting for this episodes, they’re so good
For a bit of explaining on Gon, think of Kurakipa
He has one chain nen ability exclusively for the troupe, if he uses it on someone else then he dies, by this deal his ability gets way stronger
Gon did something similar but way dangerous, he made a “nen deal” but left his part of the deal open, essentially he says “give me all the power, take whatever you want”
That’s why killua was so worried
Gon had the potential to possibly become one of the strongest nen-users in the entire planet, and now all of it is gone
@@luisjauregui2197 yes indeed, all for revenge, just as desperate as using a nuke to win a war
Gon and Meruem passed each other going opposite directions on the road from human to becoming a monster. Look back and you'll understand Gon was ALWAYS destined to become a monster. Also you thought Kurapika's Nen restrictions were crazy.... Nen never said you couldn't literally risk it all.
This was not a shonen power up. This was the "If I lose, then you're going down with me" moment.
I hate myself for making this comparison, but the title reminded me of a meme
"Oh no! Our baby! It's broken!"
I remember when Alicia first started watching Hunter x Hunter, I remember she said something along the lines of them being so cheerful and the thought of “there is so much trauma we can fit in there”.
I’ve really enjoyed watching throughout all these weeks. Thank you for bringing me along with your experience of such a beautiful story.
It's finally here!!!!! MENTAL INSTABILITY FOR EVERYONE!!!!
24:56 ik someone already messaged this but imma reinforce it. Yea this is an infamous mistranslation, what pitou really says is “his fangs can now reach the kings throat” meaning Gon became powerful enough to potentially kill Meruem by himself but not be an equal.
In equal in power, not equal in itself buddy
FINALLY! It is time for Alicia to watch her little baby boy grow up before her eyes.
Alicia at the start: "I can't wait for this beautiful little bean to murder people."
Alicia now: "I regret it! I regret everything!"
I'm sorry you had to see one of your babies hurting like that I hope you'll be okay and can still enjoy the rest of Hunter Hunter. Love your reactions and hope you feel better soon. 👍
I hope she'll learn to stop wishing for terrible things.
We did it boys and girls, we reached THAT moment.
This moment is why this show is a god damn masterpiece, the foreshadowing through the entire series and the build up in this arc are just masterfully constructed then deconstructed
Built different.
Constructed alternatively.
Put together in an unorthodox fashion.
Fucking GON(E).
11:49 When I first watched this I was stressed af and scared for what would happen to Gon, but now I smile uncontrollably watching others go through the emotions I went through.
The fact that gon was literally getting a mental disability from his sorrow and rage is just the chefs kiss of writing
I was tired of MCs beating the shit out of scumbag enemies during rage moments then calming down and talking to them (looking at you, Naruto). What makes this even better is that Pitou isn't that evil even though she was mad disrespectful to Kite, and there isn't an inner demon or an alter ego controlling Gon, this is all his doing. This feels like a true rage moment
The story of how the king became more Human, and how Gon became the monster.
Chefs kiss
The build up to gons transformation and then the pay off really was done perfectly. It gets so underrated when people compare it to other anime transformations, but honestly I think this was THE best one out of all
It can't be beat in my eyes cause the show literally teases the entire ant arc with it then I shows itself in a big way
It is one of if not THE BEST anime transformation because it's not just the HYPE ... there is no transformation as emotionally well built and morally conflicting as this one . Atleast not any I have seen .
A great way to get in Gon's head is think "If I have nothing to live for, what am I willing to die for."
alecia made the monkeys paw wish... she wanted gon to snap... but got gon snapping...
edit: gon got to the point where he can comfortably kill pitou using a nen-restriction... which means THIS IS THE HIGHT he couldve reached naturally in his adulthood btw. goes to show just how broken the 2 kids are...
One detail that's amazing is that this is the only time you ever hear Killua's footsteps the entire show 😭 This is easily the greatest two episodes in anime. The writing, the music, the animation and pacing, the voice acting. Everything was done to perfection
36:24 peaked the mic with the sadness
Gon snapped and got the rage power up exactly like the viewers wanted him to. But Nen is damningly fair
Killua's final "Gon!!" is surely a great scream
I think they forgot what Nen is... it's not just having powers, it's literal life energy. Every living being has it. Losing it doesn't make you normal, like how it was for Ichigo, it literally means exchanging your life for power.
WE'RE FINALLY HEREEEE and she even asked for it,, yeah and this show is just complete peak man it still so exciting watching this again and again it's so good.
Death always plays weird with Nen. Nen is deeply tied to the resolve and strength of will of the user. If someone uses a Nen power, then dies in a way that is in any shape or form linked to the resolve they had in mind when using the power, there is a very good chance of the power doing the same thing Gon did in this episode: "oh, this is the last time we'll ever use Nen, so let's put EVERYTHING into it."
Even if the circumstances of your death aren't 100% related to when you used the Nen power, if you just think of it or if it's a deep grudge you're holding, it can do that. For instance, the Phantom Troupe is terrified of moving against Kurapika until Chrollo gets the blade removed from his heart, because nobody knows what kind of horrific thing Kurapika's Nen would do to Chrollo if he died bearing such a deep grudge against the Troupe.
Pitou used her Nen on herself, thinking she had to protect the King. Then she literally died in the first attack of the fight. Her resolve to keep Gon away from the King made it so her body kept being puppeteered by Terepischora after she died, all for the purpose of trying to kill Gon and, if all else failed, at least keep him occupied until his suicidal deal went fully through.
You wanted the Gon Freak out? Here it is.
the... Gon Freecs out..😆
I'll see myself out now😅
@alexaltenberger7324 Like father like son
The directing for this arc is so goated. The story moves at a snail's pace, but the way the show lingers on moments as if time is almost frozen does so much to ramp up my emotions. Even the narrator reading everything like a book contributes. Everything from fear to excitement to dread. It's so peak.
2 fun fact about Adult Gon:
1) The Japanese fans call him "Gon-San" which roughly translate to "Mr. Gon"
2) he is single handedly the reason why i started going to the gym, when i was 16. I saw him and thought to myself "i want to become that"
Gon is tired of looking for his Dad that he decided to become a Daddy himself.
Every single time this entire series that you guys were like "I cannot wait for Gon to snap, he HAS to snap," every single one of us was thinking the same thing. The moment we all knew was coming. The Monkey's Paw can be a cruel thing. Absolutely love to see it
This really puts into perspective when he says "I don't care if this is the end, I will use everything" just a little bit earlier, when we didn't know what he meant exactly.
This entire scene is really really well done. Definitely my favourite scene out of any anime - although, my 2nd fav scene of this anime is coming up really soon as well.
The monent we've all been waiting for. Our broken baby boy is growing up in a blink of an eye.
I hate how the anime didn't show it, but kite was more of a father figure to Gon when he was much younger. Knowing that, it makes sense why he snapped.
Pitou didn't lie even once during these 2 episodes, and even in general only ever omitted verbal information once.
And a quick note regarding the "equal to the king" line, metaphorically/allegorically correct translation but literally it's "his fangs have reached the King's throat", a callback to a couple of episodes earlier. Important distinction because "equal to the King" and "capable of killing the King" are two different calculations.
Final Edit: Azu's the GOAT for catching Killua's feet making a noise.
And so it is. The end of Gon, destroyed by his own hatred, just like Alicia wanted. At least we get Killua as the MC from this point forwards.
Meruem and the royal guards are all technically new borns so it’s interesting to watch how all their personalities end up.
Pouf didn't really have a reason to use the shapeshifting abilities before, not sure what opportunities you're referring to. He couldn't really pretend to be any of the Hunters because he would be discovered instantly since he doesn't know anything about them or their personalities.
Adult Gon isn't as strong as the King, nor is it what Pitou implied. They just said that his willpower could reach the King, not technically defeat him
I feel like part of the reason Pitou was so willing to be honest with Gon is out of respect for Meruem, Gon's compliance allowing the king's will to be enacted, Gon allowed the most precious person to the king to live. At the same time, she couldn't return the favor to Gon, instead delivering the bad news to Gon that she just prevented the king from having to receive.
well... Alicia got what she wanted, gon snapped.
Can't wait till she gets to one piece in kuma backstory
Fear when a series that has used the same soundtrack for its entire run barring a couple character themes busts out multiple consecutive unique tracks just to score a single event
The sounds Hisoka would make if he saw Gon’s full potential would reverberate throughout time and space.
Killua screaming Gon's name breaks me every time. What a scene. The voice actors are second to none.
God, Kil crying out for Gon right before he lands the final move gets me every time. T_T This whole sequence is so beautifully done. I'm glad that you got these two episodes together, because man, it'd be insane to not pair these two.
I feel this is the best directed episode in anime history. The sound of Gons footsteps, the terror in his and Kiluas voice, the use of silence, and that quiet end to the outro music i dont think can ever be topped. I've seen a dozen or so reactions to these episodes, and what sends it home is that you couldnt react at all, and really nobody else did either. That silent awe is something that even though i have seen it before, through a channel like yours its something we can actually share together. I really appreciate you giving us the chance to share it with you, and you were waiting for the Gon snap for so long, your own actual reaction series got its payoff in a way i doubt you saw coming. That is Hunter x Hunter.
Gon really went "STOP! YOU HAVE VIOLATED THE LAW!"
And this, kids, is why bargains are not accepted during the Bargaining Stage of grief.
When mothers raise their sons to be crashouts, then start crying when they get shot. "He's a baby!!!!"
Nahhh that's a grown ass man. 🤣💀
Bro commented under the wrong video 😭
You know none of this woulda happened if people just remembered that bungee gum has both the properties of rubber and gum
If I remember correctly, there was a movie that takes place before the chimera ants that explains what power gon was using. The power is called “On” and you make pacts to use it. I.E: enough power to kill pitou in exchange for his life. I think.
So, what do you get when Gon spends literally all of his limitless potential in one moment?
A *MONSTER*
The moment I waited for when I saw she started watching hxh has finally arrived! And the reaction did not dissappoint!
Didn't expect them to reach that episode that quick, but yeah it was intense as hell
I thought it was an interesting way to finish things up with Pitou, after validating that she hadn't been wrong to be afraid of Gon, that he is a threat. She goes so far as to turn her own body, even in death into a puppet to try and kill him to protect the king. In some way, mirroring what she did to Kite in the first place.
I think it was interesting that Pitou was one of the only Ants to recognize the threats of Humans from the get go, and not from messing about and finding out.
As for what Gon did, not easier to see the next time around. The baby, he didn't deserve so much trauma. Killua, up to you buddy, up to you.
One of the greatest moments, and also one of the saddest. We as an audience knew (or at least should know) Kite was dead, but having to come to that realization for Gon, it's rough.
Is the first I see soneone wanted to see Gon snap, the thing about that is there is consequences for doing so, been in real life or fiction.
Is never a good thing to snap, not even for the sake of encouraging impact or epicness in a scene.
Gon not just sacrifice himself, but also risk everything, his family and friends will lose him, his goal is completely gone, he act recklessly without thinking of it and when is done there is just sorrow for the people who cared about him.
Killua got all the weight because of it, he made his best friend watch him die, that's for me the most sad part of the episode.
Is truly a piece of art.
This was the most incredible and horrifying transformation I ever saw in anime
Even knowing how much i watched this show, it can still just draw you in. I love this show, good reaction.
Gon was already a Grade A, genuine, hall of fame crashout. Before this arc. I didn't even consider he could somehow crashout even more
"He's becoming a monster!"
that's it, that's the arc.
The fall of gon
The rise of Killua
The real story of Hunter X Hunter
27:10 As I said before, Gon isn't like other Jump protagonists
I’ve been waiting for this episode but didn’t want to comment about my excitement in case she saw it and remembered that something happens on episode 131.
24:03 Specifically this part and beyond.
Great reaction! My top 3 anime rages... the black and white is where they stayed true to the original manga artwork. I just triggered me that Gon says, go to sleep and not die... which show he's still just a kid that doesn't understand the concept of death.
We making it into therapy with this one 🗣️🗣️‼️‼️‼️‼️bro thought you could make a cake and eat it too, let's see the ingredients used‼️‼️ oh no⁉️⁉️⁉️
THE EPISODE ENDING WITH THE SOMBRE SONG, IS THE PEAKEST PEAK IVE FELT GROWING UP
oh no
the first time I heard Killua scream I teared up
The page of Gon's breakdown is just as hard hitting in manga too, Togashi really hurt us with that
And makes sense why Gon is so strong, adult Netero we saw in start of his flashback was quite weak in comparison to current Gon. If Gon trains like hell for a decade, yeah, he is leaving Netero in dust, at least the aged up Netero we have now
Gon followed what kurapika did. he gave himself a restriction and covenant. His restriction was he will only use his power to kill pitou. His covenant was that after he accomplishes that, he will die.
ONE OF THE BEST FREAKIN' POWERUPS IN ANIME!
AND ONE OF THE BEST BEATDOWNS OF A ANTAG!
No it isn't, this is a tragedy not something to cheer like a mindless drone.🤦♂️
Chill out dude. I've watched the anime since the 1999 version. I've felt the sadness of this scene, numerous times because it's my favorite of the arc. So take your shit attitude somewhere else.
This is peak anime, anime transformation!! This is why hunter x hunter is my all time favourite anime!
A question hardly anyone thought to ask... If Nen's power grows exponentially with conditions, what happens when someone with a lot of talent and potential decides to go "you know what, I'm using Nen for the last motherfucking time in my life right now, gimme all of it"? Well, you get this fucked up shit
NGL I kinda wanna see Alicia react to episode 1 of the 1999 adaptation. One of the most unforgettable 1st episodes to me when I was young.
25:38 you KNOW its f'ed up when pitou says "i must STOP him here" not "i must KILL him"
she acknowledged that she has no chance against him, so she wanted to do all she can to keep him away from the king as much as possible.
The legendary 131 of Hunter x Hunter is always so pleasant to watch 🧐🍷
Its so strange to see people happly laughing during all of this episode, its not funny nor hype... its just sad. its the culmination of gon's fall. This "transformation" is not a good thing, all this arc is to show how gon's mentallity is NOT ok and this "yes lets fucking goooo, snap and get revenge" is no health at all kkkkkk
Edit: And im not saying everyone should get this the first time, im just saying is weird to see all the laughing as the shit is happening xD
It is absolutely baffling how giddy Alicia gets over the concept of children suffering life-changing trauma and becoming literal murderers. She calls all these characters "her babies", but then wishes the worst possible fates on them. It's bizarre.
Gon don't need Ging, he became his own Daddy.
the candle of Gon's life became a towering flame, taller than the trees... what will remain when the light fades?
we did it boys we reached its absolute peak
Remember when he said “I’ll use everything?”. He just made a Nen contract with himself, sacrificing everything himself to do that. And when he says everything…well you’ll see.
I feel like her not being able to heal kite was obvious and not her just lying if that was the case she wouldn’t have cared so much about komugis injuries if she could just revive her from the dead 🤷♂️
there are very few mad with anger/grief scenes that live up to this
Killua screaming for Gon at the end makes me cry every time
Other shounen: mc gets stronger to protect their childlike innocence and ideals
HxH: mc is slowly worn down as others try to protect his innocence, but life is cruel and no one has the strength to protect innocence until they've lost it
We are just about at one of the coolest parts of HxH
Im so excited haha
Scratch that, this IS the moment
@@Budd3r4dawinindeed and literally tears every time I see it
What are the best depictions of Despair in anime I've ever seen
This form of Gon is the representation of his biggest flaw. His simple mindedness. Gon was so stricken by grief, he completely forgot there are others around him to live for like Killua or Mito. And because the only thing on his mind is Kite he thought he pretty much lost everything which makes him pretty much suicidal. Had Gon just thought a little harder that that's far from the case, he could've avoided these results. But at the very least he saved everyone else from Pitou.
You were asking for Gon to snap; whole time I was thinking "Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it"
Everyone say hello to Gon-san and be polite to him.
one thing I hate about the wording chosen for this episode is that when Pitou says "he's willing to never use nen again", it's the same as saying "he's willing to die for this", cause they've mentioned before (I think) that if you use up all of your nen, you die, and by saying "he's prepared to never use nen again" lessens the impact of his choice, he basically traded his life for that form, not just his nen, it'd have so much more impact if it was just worded that way
Too late to realize that this isn't your tipycall shonen, this episode is not a bad ass power up moment, this is a sad moment where the protagonist really snaps
