in comparison, nippon's version was a lot more faithful to the manga in the introduction of the ryodan. note: i don't think being more faithful is necessarily better and i will maintain that point to the end. but the 1999 version has always been castigated for even the most minor changes. i expect consistent standards.

If I recalled correctly, Gon was planning to purchase a pager in the manga/old series right? Now, its replace by a cell phone and I was bit stump about the beetle design phone, that they decide to keep.
Big and ew Can't wait for action, next week. Edit* lol it was not a pager, it was a cell phone. Man, 1999 wasn't back than enough to use a pager yet... maybe 1990? haha

Since the Madhouse anime premiered, this thread had been mysteriously invaded by about three new members trying to convince everyone that this was bound to be the superior adaptation from day one, so don't be surprised by those biased "comparisons" that are more like opinions (and omissions). |

I agree with you when you say that faithful doesn't necessarily mean better but for fans of the manga who watch the remake(which is said by Madhouse to follow the manga as close as they can), they want to see Togashi's story not the director's which is why they mix up faithful with better If you have the time check out http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=472517 I actually go into detail about that topic |

Reunion with Leorio was nice, and got them a good deal too ^^
They brought him up to speed about their recent quest as well. Gon arm wrestling to raise funds was a typical Leorio idea. Kurapika having a heart-to-heart with his companion was pretty unusual for him. Interesting episode. Lots of promise of action next time.

I thought Shizuku was drawn a bit cuter in Nippon's adaptation of
Spoiler for YT link to nippon's arm wrestling, but side videos are spoilers (>.>):

Now that I've got my comparison and other things out of the way in four forums, I want to discuss two important matters. First in production-wise and the second story-wise.
-First Matter: Am I the only one who thinks things started to get backwards between the two studios? In the past we've praised Madhouse's adaptation for being the closest and most faithful to the manga. But as of Whale Island arc, it feels Madhouse's quality is getting off track by making unnecessary scene alterations,deleting scenes and lines and adding a lot of filler scenes, and that's started to get on my nerves! If this goes on, the quality of this arc will get lower and it'll make Nippon's adaptation the closest to the manga in a complete contrast to how it was at the beginning. -Second matter: How do you think Leoreo learned nen? As seen, he only knows one practice. Did he try to learn it on his own or by a teacher? If he learned by a teacher, then he got himself a bad one if he didn't teach him everything! That, or he went the slow way. Cause as we all know, there are two methods to learn nen: The first is the quick way which is opening the vents by another nen user like what Wing did to the boys, and the other way is the slow way the same as Zushi who took months till he reached his current level that we saw in Heave's Arena arc. |

But oh well. I think this episode didn't have as many needless creative liberties as the previous ones, so who knows, maybe things will get better as we progress further into the arc. |
