Well I'm still assuming that's what he's going to do, use Something's power to free both Gon and Alluka of whatever's binding them. I can't think of a better way to do it.Originally Posted by DarthEnderX
How else would he "free Alluka" other than unbinding her from Something?
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Makes sense. But how? Do you that he's allowed to wish for two outcomes from the same wish?
Cause if not, that first wish to heal Gon still seems like it could kill a ton of people.
"Hey Something, leave Alluka alone and take Gon's curse with you."
"Hey Something, free everybody in this room so they're no longer possessed."
Something like to that extent.

Good idea if it works.
Honestly though, Alluka and that daughter that Kurapica had to guard kind of annoy me. These people with no concept of what Nen even is having these insane Nen abilities seems contrary to Nen the way it's presented by the rest of the series.
It's too bad Chrollo doesn't have his powers anymore, or he could totally show up and take Alluka's power away.
Not necessarily. Though I agree it's better they are as rare as they are. They might be just extremely natural nen users, with not a small touch of insanity making it work. Nen seems like something a genuinely insane person could boost to the absolute maximum, even if they they were rendered largely useless by the madness otherwise. Kind of like the image of an autistic person excelling at something beyond most, yet being otherwise a compromised person. In fact it's not so far from willingly setting a condition like Kurapica (and apparently Gon) did. In Alluka's case her ability to use the power is extremely limited as she can't even decide herself what it's used for but instead somebody random gets to make a wish.
Since Chimera Ants were able to use nen without any proper understanding of it, I have no troubles accepting Alluka. And since these types of nen-users are, like, super rare, it feels like natural evolution at work - sometimes creating freaks.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
The ants can do all kinds of things they shouldn't know how to do. Like fight like master martial artists despite being a month old. And they DO understand it, and are at least aware of the fact that they have it.
Alluka's an untrained little kid and what's-her-name is a shitty spoiled teenager. And neither one of them even seems to be aware that they HAVE an ability. It's fucking dumb.
That's what I thought at first too, but now, with Leorio suddenly being in 3rd place, and knowing how Ging Xanatos'd the shit out of that notepad incident:I think this is probably what's going on. Not so much Leorio winning, but at least making sure Pariston doesn't.
I wouldn't be surprised if he not only took the hit, but provoked Leorio into attacking him in the first place, all knowing what the end result was going to be.

That was the best episode in a while.
"After all, I am strangely colored."
This wouldn't be the first time a person that can't use nen uses nen unknowingly or even have a specific ability. When Gon and Kiluha raised money to buy the Greed Island game they discovered that some of those artist used nen unknowingly despite never being trained in it. Also that fortune telling mafia daughter. She even had a own ability that told the future, even though she couldn't use nen herself. Is it really hard to believe Alluka could be the same? Isn't telling the future also out of this world crazy magic? Maybe not as much as Alluka but still.
Which was explained as a person pouring a lot of their heart and soul into something. And leaving a sort of, psychic imprint on the thing they were focusing on.
Neon doesn't give two shits about what her powers are doing. And Alluka doesn't seem to be putting any conscious effort into hers either.
nice episodes.
It's been a long time since I used my studio headphones and it was the right choice for that ep that had quite a good audio track. At least a lot better than most anime, with nice sounds music and everything well mixed.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
Just realized that between 4:23-5:03 for episode 141, did the animators make a mistake with counting?
Linne Hors-d'oeuvre should be #12, not#11.
Loupe Highland should be #14, not #13.
Oh yeah, that was another thing.
Apparently, there are 3-Star Hunters too.
And not only are the people Netero brought to fight the ants not 3-star hunters, but even Ging isn't?
I wonder what the requirements are.
Who knows. But considering lots of nen users wouldn't go around flaunting their exact skills, evaluating a person's powers could be difficult, so those stars might not have much to do with that. Perhaps they are like merit badges for people who have done a lot for the organization. Though I do have to wonder what Ging would have bothered to do.
They seem merit based if Morel was to be promoted for defeating Ants despite the organisation not know what he did exactly.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Ep 142 is out!

Shit, these eps are too damn short!

im not buying this. why would gotoh focus only on the coins? thats such beginner behavior. someone his level would always take into account everything. weird. oh well.

Yeah, it was pretty strange. In the first place, if he suspected the coins would be launched remotely, he should have jumped to another location first. Perhaps he has some skill to fake his death. Although you'd think Hisoka wouldn't be careless enough to fall for such a thing.
I wonder what good those airships are if you can follow them on the ground. Why use them in the first place? The world is pretty strange for not having fixed wings aircrafts, but to make the airships so useless as well is even stranger. Are they only meant for crossing seas and oceans, barely faster than ships?
Gotoh died, there's no faking that. He was a pretty cool butler, but I suppose his ability was a bit limited. I don't remember him being able to fire on the move, for one.
The spin move was pretty well done though, but I suppose being a butler means you get used to protecting masters instead of killing like Hisoka does.
Perhaps the other question would be where Tsubone went. She was the obvious butler threat but disappeared while Amane met up at the airport. She's still somewhat an ally of Killua's so it's better than having her killed off by Illumi at least.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Probably tracking them magically.
Peace.
