When Gon gives up finding his daddy, he becomes daddy

Just want to say, y'all did a fantastic job editing this one. This episode is pretty tough for reactors because the whole episode is such a banger that it's hard to cut it down for fair use.

7:00 It makes me so happy when reactors lean to the left to look over Pitou's shoulder trying to see Gon.

Do you think Gon needs his arm to punch? His punchs come from his heart.

Thankfully the hype didn't prevent you from having a great reaction 👍

8:45 Abi: "Oh kitty cat, I hope he rips off your arm." The rest of us: "Uh . . . not exactly"

NOT Spoilers. Gon went the 'Kurapika route' of sacrificing something in order to obtain power. Gon created a convenant; sacrificed his ability and and potential growth. A restriction; only able to wield all that Power till he defeated Pitou. In return, he received all the power obtained if he trained for his entire life usable in that fight only. Regarding Pitou being able to 'fight' after being dead. That is her Nen activating according to her previous emotions, which is her desire to protect the King. Remember, one of the reasons why the Spiders did not kill Kurapika was that they were afraid that the curse bound to Chrollo's heart would still kill the boss. In this case, it would activate according to Kurapika's previous emotions which is revenge for his people.

It was so sad to see how Gon lost himself. From the beginning he was always this happy, outgoing kid and to see him like this was truly heartbreaking. To me this is definitely the best episode of hunter x hunter.

Pitou wasn't lying about Kite. Also she's a royal guard, her entire reason for being is to protect and serve the king. He doesn't have to tell her to do anything, she's just doing what she was born to do. Also this episode was lit your reaction didn't disappoint lol

Pitou wasn't lying; she didn't know who 'Kite' was. She only recognised him once they were infront of Zombie-Kite, because she'd never heard his name before. I think she was genuinely feeling sorry for Gon, but her devotion to the King was more important to her. Gon made a condition using his nen: he sacrificed his future to kill Pitou. Since he's an enhancer, he did this by forcing his body to mature.

The artistry in this episode is just too perfect, and if nothing makes you cry that piano will.

post death nen is a really high level nen concept in hxh that hasnt been fully explained we just know it is superpowerful and is capable of extraordinary things. even supernatural things.

When I first saw that transformation, one of my instant thoughts was, “where’s Hisoka”

And there we go. The saddest ultimate powerup in shonen history. I haven't clicked on anything faster. It's fine to cry for Gon, Imon. This is a sad one despite the victory over Pitou. But yeah, Abi, all this time you were calling your son a demon... Well there ya go. He basically took all of the aura he would ever accumulate over the rest of his entire life if he trained constantly for decades, and pulled it all down into himself in that moment. That's why they were saying it drained his life energy and he'd never use Nen again, because he took all of his future potential for getting stronger and gaining power and used it all just to kill Pitou. This episode is why Chimera Ant is so long. It's been 45 episodes since Kite died; almost a year if you were watching weekly. All of Gon's frustration, waiting for this moment to come, all for it to finally pop off in this one intense emotional episode. It's amazingly good. And this isn't even the most intense it gets; since you're three weeks ahead, I know you've seen what I'm referring to, and that's the one I've actually been waiting for...

7:02 has me in tears, they did it, they also tried to look over pitous shoulder to see him, my life is complete

I just realized this was symbolic of losing your innocence as a child a becoming a “man” because of war

Imon: I don’t like this song Gon: I don’t care 😭

Pitou doesn’t need the king to tell her to kill Gon, she sees Gon as a serious threat to the king so she needs to kill him, she was devoted to that back when she was healing Komugi. She isn’t totally bad, and I’m not justifying her actions to be ethical or anything, but she truly felt sorry for Gon but she “must” kill him cuz he posses a threat to the purpose of her existence it’s only natural

I'ts a contract, he said "i dont care if is the end" and then " so i will use everything" He exchange all his potencial for full power. It's a death contract, tha's the explanation of the power up.

Pitou deserves some respect. she did her duty as a royal guard till the end. her loyalty to king is just unwavering and is pure unlike self centered pouf who is more loyal to the idea of "ant king" but not the ant king himself

Shout out to Togashi !!! Totally appreciate how part of the fandom is like “nah don’t be worried now! You wanted Pitou to know pain well she knows it, and look at what it did to Gon!” 🤣😂 sometimes the comments can be hilarious

9:28 turns out thats actually what it sounds like. Thats not the studio being dramatic. The manga described it as a saw being drug across steel wires.

I saw this many years ago, I saw a lot of reactions, and I'm still crying watching this chapter

pitou considered Gon a threat to the king, thats why she said "I was right" because she sees what hes capable of. She wasn't evil, but only in the perspective of gon. Remember shes another species and doesn't look at people as equals kind of like people with a pigs.

7:05 Without fail, EVERYONE does that little lean of their head trying to see around Pitou ahaha I did it too

I think i started following this channel for your reactions of HxH last year. It's crazy how we get already here, it's been a really fun journey with you, you are awesome

7:00 I like how every reactor I've seen tilts their head when they're looking over Pitou's shoulder lol

IT'S FINALLY HERE ODMDHSJHD YASS

I've never seen Imon in more desperate need of a hug than when this episode ended rofl

Its Restriction and Covenant, like Kurapika's powers against the spiders, Kurapikas restriction is that his powers can only be used vs the troupe. Gons restriction is that this he traded his future for this power that will only be used vs Pitou. The kind, ambitious, pure-hearted, fun loving kid sacrificed this entire future, his chance to meet his father, his future friendship with Killua, everything, all for revenge. It's heartbreaking. Also I love that you guy weren't like the majority of reactions to this episode being hyped about 'Gon going beast mode' but instead actually seeing that this is a very sad thing.

Abby's character development is pretty consistent since episode 85. LOVE IT!

You two are SOOO underrated!!! One of the best reactors ever!! Been waiting for this and you definitely did not disappoint! Much love

"Is this like a horror film?" *flashbacks to Killua's arrival* I'd say that's a fitting genre for this episode. Also the black and white scenes with the bright red blood reminded me a lot of Quentin Tarantino's films.

Y’all are some of my favorite reactors fr. The emotions y’all display are always what I hope people will have when I watch the shows you guys do. Glad y’all were able to watch this unspoiled

Hisoka would be "screaming" XD

7:02 nearly everyone who have seen this scene for the 1st time tries to look over the shoulder

Bye Kite, Bye Pitou, Bye Gon.

They're struggling so hard not to thirst on my boy Gon lol

I cant believe you guys were worrying about your reactions, yall did a GREAT job ! Loved this amazing and emotional ep

The episode that breaks everybody. Also I LOVE in stories when you reach a point where you have no idea what could happen next. A testament of great writing

Now you guys know why everyone who meets gon, is terrified of his potential. He could have been this powerful if he trained hard for decades. He used the same technique as kurapika to unlock this power. He sacrifice all his future potential power while restricting it to only be used on pitou, that is why he became so powerful

When y’all started Hunter X Hunter I was waiting for this arc. This is just a tough episode to make it through. Gon is such a wholesome character and to see him with this much despair and pain is difficult.

Loved this reaction. I cried when you guys did, goes to show how attached I've gotten to you two.

Loving this new Intro design. Thank you for the reaction Abi and Imon. I’ve enjoyed watching hunter x hunter and other shows because of you guys. Much love and positivity to you guys 🙏🤍

8:48 "I hope he rips off your arm" Oh, the irony...

The intense atmosfere around Gon almost this entire Arc, the soundtrack, the visuals, a lot of feelings and things to understand in the same time, just remember about the conditions of Nen, is a thing the Gon know very well since Kurapika in Yorknew, he sacrifice his own Nen and life energy, he already know Bisky so as a enhancer he did the oposite of her and said: "I don't care anymore, I use everything". Great that the hype not ruined this reaction, this was awesome and congrats in the edition.

This is just one of the best arcs in anime history. Can't wait to see you finishing it up. Great reaction! Ours tears are always welcome for this!

I swear this episode gets me every time I watch it. Even when I think to myself “ I’m good. I’ve seen this before”, my emotions just can’t be contained... My to favorite characters in probably all of anime in a tug of war with who they are. I’m so glad you both got to experience this moment. This was my favorite anime moment of all time. And after seeing it again years later, it still reigns supreme. Great reaction video 🙏🏾

Gon: FIRST COMES ROCK.... The girls: :o :o Amazing reaction!!!

Real fans cry! Thank u for ur honest reactions through all this years. This episode is just the best. Thats why we waited for it

Been silently watching you guys take this journey. I cried my eyes out the first time I saw this episode... cried my eyes out when y'all did. Y'all created an awesome community here. I came for the feels and stayed for the love of the crew posting with me. Love y'all... job well done and now we can be all cathartic and cry our eyes out together.

Literally my two favorite people with the most satisfying reactions.

YES I have been waiting for this👍🏾❤️

13:02 My thoughts exactly Abi! 🤣

this transformation always manages to bring to me to tears idk why. just the music and the emotion behind it is amazing

one of my favorites episodes, the feels get so real at the end with Killua screaming and the explosion afterwards. Your reactions was priceless

I think those of us who had already watched HxH in the past were not at all worried about you guys not having a good reaction to this episode. If you are emotionally invested in the show and characters it's pretty much impossible not to have a genuine reaction to this episode. Also, the show itself builds to it very obviously so even though people told you guys in advance that the episode was going to be big, the show does that anyway. By the time you get here, you know something big is about to go down one way or another even without being told by outside sources. So there was really never any doubt, at least in my mind, that you guys would have full blown emotional reactions to this episode just like we all did the first time. Excellent reactions as always and I hope people don't use this episode as a reason why it's okay to spoil the episode number of the high point of a show in the future, because even though it doesn't mean much in this particular case, it's still not cool.

¿Qué si valió la pena? Ha valido cada maldito segundo

I've seen your reactions to other shows this was definitely the best one I've seen so far it was perfect and even I've seen this scene several times I actually felt watching this with you guys like it was the first time.

Beat reaction BY FAR, like you guys are super sincere and don't act like you own the shoe (as the other reactors do). Great vid, glad you enjoyed this!

When Gon said he was happy to be like kite, he meant during when Pitou cut his arm off.

Holy crap that girl really hates Pitou lol.

Yall did a great job editing this episode and making the video A lot of other youtubers kinda struggle a little bit with this one

Oh boy I have to keep up with you guys through the next few episodes. One of my favorite episodes in anime of all time. The slip of Gon into insanity. The arguing with himself about what is really happening and where to direct his rage. Then the emotion, music, and animation are amazing.

" I hope he rips off your arm." *Pitou plays reverse uno card*

IMON, baby girl!! This chapter is so emotional, I get teary eyed every single time. I really felt the "What have they done to my boy!?" but yeah, Gon totally lost it.

my god..and your reaction made me cry too lol! loved you guys as always

"His power is now equal to that of the king." Throws plushy in visibile confusion, anger, and genuine concern...lol

12:15 one of the few reactors who caught it. I don't know about after this series, but Togashi don't write lose ends. This episode touch on the Phantom Troupe arc, and Green Island, etc. You get a clear cut example why the Phantom Troupe can't go after Kurapika, and you seen why Wing told Gon not to follow Kurapika way.

He's an Enhancer, so while having a breakdown the mind took over and gave him what he desired most at the time. He wanted power, and the mind made his body grow to a point where he can have that power.

Loved your reaction, and how smartly you commented on what was happening. May the 4th be with you.

That black and white scene with Hyori Ittai instrumental playing at the back gets me everytime :"

You are the first reactors who realise the pain going through Gon.

Gon: I don't care if this is the end, so I'll use everything. That is 'Contract & Limitations'. The following is a excerpt from wikipedia. "A Nen user can enter into a Contract (誓約, Seiyaku) where, by pledging to follow certain Limitations (制約, Seiyaku), their abilities are strengthened in relation to how strict they are."

Oh god! I discovered your channel just in one of my favourite anime episodes of all time!

I can watch this episode thousands of times and I still get excited like the first time 🤧

10 seconds after post and already 10 comments. Nice

By far the most tragic thing about this reaction was seeing those stuffed animals fall

I love how emotionally open you are. :) I cried too .

Your reactions were genuinely good, girls, you are so focused on the details, I love it

Gon Freecs transformed in to UvoGon!!!!!

This is one of those episodes/moments no matter how overhyped still far passes the hype. Also for mindfuck y'all were having, y'all still followed along pretty well good job. Now watch it again then think about all the foreshadowing moments throughout the series with gons character development and it will blow your mind even further. There's Actually some good character analyzation videos on gon and other themes for HxH that I strongly recommend y'all watch after finishing the series. There's reason why many put HxH in their top of all time

I actually really like when reactors cry even if it interrupts the show. Like the time you did so for walking dead episode waaay back. I personally always watch people who analyze but also show extreme emotion which is why you two are among my top 4

Gon sacrificed ALL of the nen he has ever had or will ever had for this moment. That's how he was able to be as strong as the King

Remember back when this was a story about an innocent boy just looking for his father?

I like that there's a very brief instant of pity for Pitou in the face of Gon's brutality. God damn, hits me hard every time I watch it

This is one of the best episodes in anime's history. The philosophy behind this episode is amazing. The meaning. Sometimes it's a little bit confusing when people see it for the first time, but I think you guys will be able to understand in the near future.

Great reaction as always, love you guys!

"well first of all, kill her" I love the priorities. Made me genuinely laugh.

when u realize gon is 3x bigger than his dad lol

You see. Even knowing it was coming YOU WERE NOT PREPARED! Love to you both x

Gon did what's called restriction & covenant/pledge. Same thing Kurapika did, but gave up more in order to achieve more power.

Is it only me who's favorite character is killua and after killua my second favorite is meruem and the royal guards.... I mean gon is like number 10 In my list after hisoka and korapika. Netero and the zoldyks hahaha

Abi: "I hope he rips off your arm!" Me: *hysterical laughter*

Ayyye love the reactions lol when I first saw this transformation I was shook beyond words..

I was waiting for their thirst of adult gon but they were feeling all kinds of emotions😂. Man these episode is so good!!

Jesus they never know what’s happening lol

Some of u post comments about u liking pitou and all and that she got voted as one of the beloved character in hxh while u admit u dont like seeing Abi hating on her. Meanwhile here I am, just like Abi, not liking pitou as well lol. Pitou is made as character that u either love or hate and its fine. So dont just leave comment on why u like pitou or try to convince everyone to like her character. Everyone has their own opinion for a certain character.

Imagine bacxk then when it was airing, you see this ending and has to wait a WEEK not knowing what happened... It was gut wrenching...

One of the best episodes of television I ever had the privilege of seeing I love this episode and I love seeing others reactions to it it’s just such a powerful moment it really defies the series
