Bisky talks generally about what she knows of Killua's personality. And she knows him. Morel talks about one specific situation he knows very little about, and generalizes from there to Killua's personality. He also does it, not for his own good, but just to pick stoke his own ego. Please also notice she said A, B, and C could beat D if the circumstances were right. E couldn't, not on his best day. And the circumstances against Pitou were definitely not right. And really, look at what Morel's doing. Is he charging in to finish it as soon as possible, trusting his vaunted experience is all he needs against the Ants? No, he picks his ground and moment. Well, that wasn't an option for Killua, was it? |

Killua's way of thinking was "there's no way, get the hell outta here". Really..not the same thing. Had Killua said, "I was at a disadvantage and had to regroup to find a way to beat them", Morel would certainly have another impression of him. But no, he just heard him basically giving up. |

I cannot believe I never knew Hunter x Hunter (2011) had a forum on Animesuki... Time to rectify that.
Episodes 1-89: I have two words to describe this anime... Fantastic Shounen! I have to say though, after reading most of the forum, this was a good anime to get off-topic on... |

Damn! I did not see Knuckle's ability coming. It is just so unlike his personality. And as a Math-fanatic, the first half was very entertaining. Which does not speak badly of the second half because Killua's curse is very intriguing. Can't wait to see a resolution to that.
And the King is born... Next episode on Dragonball Z! |

Gon's still at it...
It was about time he dealt with Knuckle. That guy sure had a cute, yet dangerous power up his sleeve. It's totally ROFL how math defeats Gon so easily ^^" Wow, Killua's opponent really had an interesting power. Don't know what was going on with him, but Killua was acting weird. Guess the whole chimera ant thing was put on hold this time..

First part with Gon's fight was meh , adding numbers in this aren't that great , hope the future fights won't be around those numbers...
Damn Killua , to surpass your fear , just take a kunai and stick it on your leg like Sasuke |

I really felt for Killua. I recently tried to redo my sales pitch at work (retail) and its hard trying to go against a technique you've used for years. I understand why he felt so frustrated.
Also Knuckle's Nen ability is friggen hilarious: delinquent who likes dogs and uses money metaphors to fight. |

I thought for sure Knuckle was an enhancer given his personality but it turns out he's got one of the most intellectual ability seen in the series (actually, it's not that complicated... but his explanation sure made it seem that way).

Should be emission. He projects his aura out of his body and lends it to his opponents. And now that I read it again, the emitter definition fits Knuckle: Emitters are impatient and not detail-oriented. Many of them are quick-tempered and hot-blooded. They resemble the Enhancers in building their impulsivity, but the difference with them, they probably tend to calm down and forget easier.

Was as lost as Gon in the beginning, but never thought Knuckle was a numbers person. It is an interesting ability though. Wonder what that cage is in Shoot's ability. Tough for Killua to break his curse. Both are in a pinch, wonder if they'll turn it around. So the king is born next ep.

Most of the numbers Knuckle was giving were just his method of estimating Gon's maximum capacity. Which isn't entirely relevant, but it certainly made it sound more impressive! A psychological attack indeed. Actually, given that his power basically encourages him to stall for time until the opponent goes bankrupt, having a really long explanation could be considered part of his battle strategy. The amount of interest he earned while explaining was enough to ensure that Gon could never pay it back normal hits. And even with Jajanken it would take at least three clean hits.
