Nah fr. I just started this shit and dog. I used hate on Hunter but this shit is realistic ASF . I'm team mureum all the way lmao

I dont necessarily agree with you here. If Netero ended the fight sooner, that means he would have to die so it makes sense why he prolonged the fight because just immedietly suiciding a fight he could possibly win is just VERY STUPID. He either wins the fight and doesnt need to die, or he's going to die anyways so the nuke is the backup plan. The nuke in itself is what defines the malice of humanity, not Netero's ability to end the fight sooner as humans have evolved since they existed, but not all humans are good. This is why nukes and guns exist, as humans have used technology to offset their weaknesses in good ways like fire stoves for more efficient cooking, but also in horrendous ways as people of power use these weapons to maintain their power. Humanity could live in peace without the need of bloodshed against their own kind, but they dont because evil humans exist and they'll do anything to exploit it. That's the real malice of humanity, the ability to evolve to create peace but instead evolve technologically destructive weapons and etc instead.

Sadly this version doesn't have "He had me in checkmate from the very beginning." The dummies at Netflix used "Had me defeated" instead.

@@greenlegsanddamn9784SMH I didnt realize Netflix butchered this line so poorly, what a disappointment on there end

yup he had in control from the very start he just prolonged it of course believing he could beat meruem without using the bomb

I mean i dont really get shocked at this fact because if meruem took the opposite limbs then people would've said "the limbs meruem took from netero were the same ones netero DIDN'T use against gon and killua😱🤯" Yk?

if you watch the opening you can see he hide both those limbs like and easter egg of what will happen

@@pininja4981Well he could have gone for both arms or legs

@@pininja4981I think it’s to show that he favoured those two limbs, which meruem was smart enough to notice this tiny bias

⁠@@pininja4981the reason you could read into that is because it implies his tendency to favor them more/less than the other two - which is the mistake that allowed Meruem to find the sub optimal holes in his rhythm. This would apply subconsciously which is why he did the same prior

its netflix...

FR.☠️☠️☠️

Nah, it was in there. Like right after he killed himself

Dang I was wondering where he's watching this since the subtitles were so bad lol Thought it might've been some sketchy piracy website but even KissAnime's subtitles aren't this scuffed 😂

I was actually gonna comment this too, the subtitles seem very different from what I remember

It's definitely Netflix, I remember years ago when I watched HxH first time there. I remembered it was different from the other places, never knew why

I was going to comment the same thing. Wtf are these subs

also the screw up on the translation is not only bad its actually makes the entire battle different. the moral lesson i guess for the ant king was to never underestimate humanity's infinite potential for evolution and destruction. the bomb being a result of this which easily took out the ant king to near death and even then still kills him. though the thing is meruem isnt arrogant he is just ignorant.

I think he meant human ability to accumulate knowledge and continually improve (evolve), and the nuke is one of product of humanity cumulative effort and knowledge

Yea I love this episode. As fearsome as the ant king is he was never a threat. They just wanted to beat him without too much collateral. This was just one small cheap bomb. They knew the ants were at the palace they could have launched multiple megaton nukes on it if they wanted to. Meruem never had any real chance of ruling the world. Great story

The association could've just send an even bigger bomb through Knov's portals in the palace, or drop it like a nuke, they didn't do it because of the civilians outside the palace; all this plan from the hunters that we've been following was to save those civilians, because victory was long assured, the ants stood no chance

@@nickgiotis6206 This is what makes this arc my favourite in anime/manga. It's ultimately about this newly-evolved species coming to learn that they aren't nearly as dangerous as they think they are. Besides the obvious threat of nukes, Netero himself explains that he's not even the strongest Nen user any more. There are the three triple-star hunters, of which there are at least two who are more than likely stronger than Old Man Netero. There's phantom troupe members like Chrollo, Nobunaga, Feitan, Phinks and Bonolenov who are arguably strong enough to kill the king and/or have Nen abilities that would do harm beyond their combat abilities. Phinks in particular is the standout, as his ability has potentially infinite application. Then there's Nen users like Ging Freecs, Beyong Netero, Linn Horsdeouvre, Maha Zoldyck, Silva Zoldyck and Tserriednich Huy Guo Rou who are all speculated to be as strong or stronger than even prime Netero. There's also Zigg Zoldyck who hasn't been confirmed as alive, but if so is likely as strong or stronger. There's also Alluka, who you could get someone willing to die to ask to kill Meruem in exchange for their life. There's the potential for Nen contracts like the one Gon made to become as strong as the king. There's also potentially Nen-infused items that could do some serious harm to the king. Humans were never in serious danger. The arc was ultimately about the ants figuring this out. This is why I love this arc and it's implications.

@@iceseici mean in dub he says you know nothing about the bottomless malice within the human heart which is wayyy better than the infinite evolution thing

Hahahahaha wouldn't shock me

Netero is Gandhi. That's why he nuked his main opponent.

Yeah believe he's never seen them 😅

Wdym?? Did he miss something? He forgets names. That isn't a big deal for first time watchers

It's a children's cartoon, relax 😂😂😂

@@pininja4981He means that this guy has never been spoiled for any anime he’s watched. In his eyes he basically has lived under a rock since he never watched any of these anime before.

Children? Children can watch it but half of the characters will go over their head. HxH is more for mature audience people who appreciates good characters and growth instead of animation fightings and huge boobies

i feel like there's no way tot ranslate it in dub, but in sub, they should have wrote malice/evolution

@@gizel4376 that would look stupid and ruin the moment.

6 years. It wasn't 40. But yeah ig if you count the years between 52 yo netero and 112 or something, It would be around 60 years of praying every time he used his ability

it's because Netero found an extremly powerfull way to devellop nen ability, we all know about condition and resolve, but many assume death is like the ultimate cost for a condition, but it's not, dying is not that hard, there's a few thing more powerfull than death, Netero pass many year proving his resolve, he pre-emptivelly fullfill a condition stronger than death, another exemple would be spoil... . . . . Gon getting curse by something worse than death

​@a4981 fun fact, we don't know for how long he was praying, he started at 46, then we see him when he's 50 still throwing punches , then the scene in the dojo happens 60 years before the present, which makes him at least 110 years old... however Beans (the guy that looks like a bean) says at the beginning of the manga that Netero has been saying he's 100 years old for the last 20 years, so he probably spent far more than we thought up there, at least 14 years I'd say...

Tsuna-KKKuuunn

@@YourVirtuousSultan Ciaossu

Exactly.... I remember another important subtitles they changed but forgot which specifically it was

In the manga it was "You know nothing of the bottomless malice within the human heart", but the word used for malice in japanese is very similar to evolution

Because the the original word used in the manga can mean both. It's really irrelevant, just use the word you like best.

@@b_delta9725 the word is malice but with something added it means evolution so thats why evolution is the right one to go. but it really means both its not a mistake but you cant really show it in the anime because it would defeat the purpose of Infinite evolution and malice being 2 sides of the same coin

@@StraightBleach I know it's irrelevant but to me. It just feels like for the scene and the message his trying to convey, evolution just doesn't feel right. Malice or cruelty like I remember it, feels like it has more implication about what humans are like.

are you talking about ep 131?

Yeah, I mean if this episode isn't goated then that one truly is. I'm expecting a lot of "YOOO":s lol. The Zoldyck's vs Chrollo has to be 3rd.

@@Sandlund93 thats a good one also.

It's more of its own thing inspired by it than it is a reference.

I mean, people connecting with different characters is sort of the whole point but I don't get why he thinks so highly of Meruem. Ohh well, he hasn't seen everything yet so.

I don't know if it's the fact that he juggles so many different reactions simultaneously or if he just doesn't pay attention very well. I mean, he was still calling Frodo "Fredo" by the end of The Fellowship of the Ring. Considering how many times that name is being uttered across those 3 hours, that shouldn't be possible lol.

Many people start late. He is a new anime watcher in general. New ish

Netflix subs SUCK i swear there's been hundreds of comments telling bro stop watching hunter hunter on Netflix because the subs suck and are inaccurate but I don't think he reads comments

​@@TalkingPigeon642 Who tf watches anime on Netflix

Hahahahaha

He seemed to be implying that a human Nen user can somehow top a nuke. Well, I guess he will learn the truth eventually.

You lyingggggggg

Thank you hahaha

ur putting a bad name on us db fans

i cant even watch it your reaction is fucked up bc the subtitles are so bad..
