| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ----------------------------------------  Still want to be the King? Rammot? So we're reintroduced to the concept of how the user's will can affect Nen. Imposing your intent on someone can even be deadly and Rammot felt that first hand. With his new found aura, it made him conceited only for him to realize his place when Neferpitou's Nen touches him. I've always liked this part about the Nen system in particular and this'll be highlighted a lot more moving forward. To hammer the concept again but more likely to fill the episode they show the same thing happen to Hagya with Kite's Nen intimidating him. Hagya's supposed to be the head of the food chain but here he's fearful of 3 humans which is shameful for a lion. At least he's a rational thinker now that he's a Chimera Ant Um...... What a way to go Pokkle, wasn't expecting him to be naked like the manga and thank the lord we didn't see his brain silhouette. Atmosphere was still spot on with the sound effects and his twitching. Nice touch with the crimson lighting Satisfied with what I saw however I would've chosen a different track for Pitou's stride. I get what the piece does with the slow crescendo building up the tension, they did the same thing with Kurapika when he overwhelms Zenji in Yorknew, however I think Pitou's walk could've had more impact than it did Other Thoughts -"Nyaa-ruhodo" Haha - |

| wow, I thought you'd at least wait for it to finish airing before posting |
 |
| Perfect VA for Pitou, just how I imagined it. |
 |
| Some filler this episode but it helped to build the story and tie up things that weren't explained. Pitou finally comes out and she's a specialist. Next week is going to be really interesting. |

Good episode and indeed Neferpitou shows up: Dat face, ears, and tail. Btw, is Neferpitou a male or female? Whatever the case though, it seems to be badass. Next week should be good with more Kite action as well. |

| Oh I see. Most people refer as he or she though? |

Stark700 said: Yeah, even in the manga it's confusing since some chapters say "he" or "she" I think there were different translator for it.Oh I see. Most people refer as he or she though? But on a few sites it says Male. I'm hoping the anime can give us some closure. |

Envyus said: Stark700 said: But on all sites it says Male. I'm hoping the anime can give us some closure. You quoted the wrong person here. I never said that in my original post. Anyways, I just checked the wiki and seems to be ambiguous so also hoping the anime will shed light on this soon too. |
|
| hxh has common thing, confusion about female and male gender... like kurapika and most of zoldyck family... so i think pitou is male.. |
     |
| Neferpitou is here! |
| "Savage Pirate We Love You" |
| Neferpitou puts the "Nyaa" in "Nyaarhuhodo" ^.^ |

| A great episode - I had definitely been anticipating this one and it did not disappoint. Glad to finally see Neferpitou get introduced. I enjoyed his scene with Rammot where the latter realizes that he is just not King material. Also, as dark as it is, I love how they tease the fact that Pokkle is alive... only for that to be quickly subverted as he ends up suffering a pretty horrible fate. Anyway, next episode should also be very good. It looks as if they plan to show |
| The only thing I really give a fuck about from this episode is Neferpitou but that's really all there needed to be. I geeked out pretty hard seeing it finally introduced. |
| Neferpitou was introuduced, holy shit. I love her VA already, they moe'd the shit out of him/her We got to see a naked Pokkle getting his brain probed, the music for that was great as always |
 |
| Loved the episode, I was looking forward for this episodes. I was so freaked out by this part of the manga. Can't wait for next week! |

|
| Neferpitou is awesome, the queen's royal guard are pretty tough |
| Man anyone feel for Pokkle?! Sucks man, I'm sure he was concealing his aura...not well enough. I thought it was a little lame that the antennas ripped from some drone were used to force information out like that. Aside from that...great episode. |
Argentchan said: I don't know if anyone else heard- But when Neferpitou goes to try the water divination, I swear Pitou says 'Boku' (ぼく) when referring to themselves, quite clearly? Boku is a male pronoun! Yes he refers to himself as boku in the manga too, in many occasion. The translation I read (Chinese versions) all use 'he'. So I just always thought of him as male |
| Looks like Royal Guards are in a whole another league compared to other ants. I admit I had slight hope Pokkle would get away lol. |
 |
| fuck the ants are so badass.best ongoing anime |
| Cty Best mid |
| Well....Neferpitou definitely didn't fail to live up to expectations. Damn, talk about fucking creepy. Most intimidating character in the series thus far. What he/she did to Pokkle? And, the way they did the eyes with the whole zooming in and distortion? God damn. Loved the teaser of the King. |

| pitou is quite terrifying never seen such a evil aura around someone,once (she i still think it's a she) showed up i knew Pokkle was fucked poor guy I take it next week will be more Kite background |
 |
| So they learned they can make all the ants using nen by hitting them :O well for now its a good pace. |
IZEROII said: Man anyone feel for Pokkle?! Sucks man, I'm sure he was concealing his aura...not well enough. Zetsu doesn't necessarily make it impossible to be detected, only difficult for most. Someone who's highly perceptive can still detect someone who's mastered Zetsu. A previous example would be Hisoka detecting Kalluto after the dodgeball game in the GI arc. With Neferpitou, as you'll learn throughout the arc... |

| Pitou FTW! |
| finally pitou spawned at the anime <3 I know how ambiguous his/her gender is but I think the anime finally give us light about his/her gender: someone think it's a male because she used 'boku'? come on guys... it's already common sense that some female refer herself with 'boku', that's what you call a tomboy duh |
| Neferpitou is here!!! He is my favorite among the royal guards. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Damn. Neferpitou looks so intimidating. If he's that strong, I wonder how stronger the King will be. Poor Pokkle, beiing controlled like that. |
| pew pew pew |
| Wow what an amazing dark episode, it hurt just watching. Pokkle was probably already dead when they probed him. |
