It's ridicules how much time hunters need to take out the ants.
Compared to the Phantom Troupe's swift justice, they're like snails.
The situation keeps getting worse and worse all the time.
Watching Killua fight was just awesome this time!
I must admit I like him more than Gon..
The octopus was just LOL ^^"

Well, you gotta remember the Troupe went through one-on-one fights in closed spaces, and only one of their enemies was a squad leader...and they still had to go all out.
Trying to ambush them in open road when they have the numbers, sure is much harder. The Ants are deliberately avoiding direct fights as much as they can.

Note that almost every single named ant is a squad leader or higher, meaning they're all on the same level as the self-proclaimed Queen who was fighting evenly with Feitan for quite a long time. The other ants that the Troupe killed were just fodder like the ones Killua is tearing through.

Not even episode 100 gets a new op. They are really going for a single song for the entire run apparently. Am I the only one that's completely sick and tired of the song?

Since they came this far, I'd be more disappointed if they changed it after this arc.

LOL Ikalgo. It's no use freaking out over being called an Octopus. You are an Octopus. No matter how much you don't want to be.

Add to that that here the Hunters at work are short in numbers, fighting over an entire country, and planning on the long term to try and take out the King (so they're not going all out immediately like the Spiders did). A big part of the problem is that the Hunter association could probably wipe out the menace quickly, if they were to send the big guns (namely

Spoiler for Manga spoiler:


), but they don't because they don't realize the entity of the threat and they are still playing political games against Netero's chairmanship. Of course, were the King to defeat Netero's task force and succeed in his plan of awakening an army of Nen users, then the conflict would scale up and turn into a world war between humans and ants - humans may still win, but the number of casualties would be uncountably higher.

Those casualties would firmly secure the vice chairman's claim on the chairman's seat though.

Just to be clear, I also find this boring, but I respect their commitment if you can call it that way. It's starting getting funnier now that it's already 100+ episodes. Yeah, I know they still haven't top Salior Moon OP song but still.

Congrats to Hunter x Hunter (2011) on finally reaching 100 episodes !

@Manga Readers: Is there enough manga content left to last 50 more episodes at least?

We are now in volume 23. We still have nine more.

Hunter Exam arc was 5 volumes (38 chapters) covered in 21 episodes.

Zoldyck Family arc was 5 chapters all in volume 5 covered in 5 episodes

Heavens Arena arc was 3 volumes (20 chapters) covered in 10 episodes

Yorknew City arc was 6 volumes (56 chapters) covered in 22 episodes

Greed Island arc was 6 volumes (66 chapters) covered in 17 volumes

For Chimera Ants arc, we went through 5 volumes so far (nearly 53 chapters) and 25 episodes till date.

50 episodes took us about 94 chapters, that's nearly 10 volumes. So, I guess the content is enough for another 50 episodes.



Wow..................... so it'll be over in about a year of now?!

I hope you're right. The move to the late night slot could easily make them step up the pace and try to cram everything in 25 instead of 50 episodes. Let's hope that's not the case.

Damn, no more Hunter x Hunter (2011) after October 2014 ?!

Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if we had a few filler arcs? *gets shot* :X

If after reaching the end they want to make some - maybe asking Togashi sensei who at that point will have completely given up on drawing the manga and might as well share his ideas with the writers - I won't mind, since there's not going to be anything to ruin. But judging from the quality of the Phantom Rouge movie, I'd say I'd probably not bother.
Something I can't understand is how there is not a single decent writer in anime working on anime-original episodes of long running series. One would expect it to be the kind of task you'd give to rookies and youngsters, so you should get the occasional genius waiting to happen who delivers a great job. Instead they're consistently shit.
