There are just few good ways to look at this situation. Certainly Ponzu could seen as having it easier than most. At least she was dead before she likely even knew what happened. Though still completely willing to say it was more tragic because she was cute and had a nice voice.
It's a terrible situation all in all. Giant bugs killing and eating people, it's just...not good.

Anyway, from the episodes I watch so far, they seem like foreshadowing that our friend Kite will run into deep trouble. His advice to Gon & Killua to “leave me when things go south” kinda prophesied something bad if we look at the nature of this arc  . |
Yeah, I'm pretty much ready to bury Kite as well at this point. From that line, I just can't help but think he's going to get killed off and be the main source that the King is drawn from. Heck could also draw that Gon and Killua not running away (from something) will actually be the cause of things getting worse.
