I actually prefer this version of Michi as I love the 2011 color pallet. I think that she's cuter in this version.

Also, if you have a fake tattoo, you prob wouldn't want a member of that troupe close enough to tell it's a fake. So the 2011 version is more believable.

As for the fight, it looked like we got more of it in the 2011 version.

I always found it funny how Hisoka is the scariest character in the story even though his Nen ability is one of the most basic.

That shows it's not about the abilities, but rather how to use it in a smart way.

i have to agree, one of my concerns was the color palette wich was adapted to a more darker tone since this arc started, i migth agree with the complain of the figth beign a little too prolonged but first: it followed the manga closely, and second: the animation of the series has been good overall, so these things make it understandable.

Just wanted to share THIS with all of you because, well, it's hilarious!

pinkprisoner: machi can tell that hisoka is naked.
basically his penis glows so hard that everyone for 500 miles around can tell that it’s out

amcraviotospeaks: His penis lights up the whole tower. Hell, the tower was built after his penis.

If you have a tumblr account, follow them. I know that it's the place for the crazies... mostly. But we're crazily fun.

New fans who didn't see the old anime (especially the manga) are advised to stay away. The spoilery images and crazy discussions you will find there are rampant.

Fans who like to bash either of the anime series for the reason of uplifting their preferred version are also advised to stay away. We don't want you there.

Fair warning: trash the manga and you will be eaten alive.

If you have a dirty sense of humour, I guarantee you will enjoy the community.

I'm assuming the second comment is a reference to the first ending animation.

Killua finally starts stealing the show. It's inevitable.

The new themes are pretty nice. From that little bit alone, it feels like an upgrade. Can't wait till they actually come up.

zeniselv · 2012-05-27, 00:39

very good episode, killua now showing more why hes such a joy to watch.

Kaioshin Sama · 2012-05-27, 01:17

Hisoka's theme is still the standout one of the show for me. Love the spanish guitar, it somehow fits him perfectly.

Dengar · 2012-05-27, 03:42

I totally forgot that Hisoka isn't the story's scariest character. It's Killua all along.

Albafica · 2012-05-27, 04:16

A bit disappointed by the OST 2 especially the Kurapika theme. I hope that there will be better track but well, the first OST wasn't really good so...

fanty · 2012-05-27, 04:17

Killua is like the coolest character ever.

And I found this bit...

...to be amusing to no end.

FlareKnight · 2012-05-27, 04:34

Holy crap Killua was scary as hell at the end there. I'm amazed that guy didn't pass out from total terror. Important lesson of the day, don't piss off Killua. Guy got greedy and it ended up biting him in the end. Someone with his skills and Nen is pretty frightening to think about. Well he definitely earned that first win even if his opponent didn't show up.

Guess the next episode will be taking down the rest of the trio. Picking on the new guys might sound like a tactical plan until you run into quickly developing monsters like Killua and Gon.

Keroko · 2012-05-27, 06:25

Gaaah! Why no creepy music when Killua threatens Sadaso? Music sets like half the mood, why leave all music out of what is otherwise a brilliantly creepy scene? Throwing a track like the Zoaldyck theme under that scene would have raised the scene another notch.

*sigh* My usual grumblings at this series handling of audio aside, great episode. I particularly like the detail that Gon's promise thread is actually shown broken before attention is focused on it. Good eye for detail there.

Another detail I noticed is that they also changed the video tape into a DVD. Logical change, considering videotapes are a relic of the last century. The series'd probably feel a tad weird to newcommers if they fell back to using video tapes.

Albafica · 2012-05-27, 06:27

Kurapika is the coolest for me

Cue people saying you're biased.

Nah, just because your opinion is in there doesn't make it a bad comparison.

SHINOBI-03 Senior Member Join Date: May 2012	Spoiler for Episode 33 - Anime vs Manga: The new series gave us a better look for the ten flow. However, it omitted the part when Wing described it as riding a bicycle. Since this is the 21st century and no one uses VHS tapes anymore, they changed the recording of Hisoka's fight to a disk. An explanation of Gyu was given. The effects were not the same as the ending theme. Looks like the studio has settled on one color for all nen methods in the normal circumstances. In Zushi's abduction scene, we see the full Evil Trio in the anime. In the manga we only see Sadaso and Reihlvert and we don't see them take Zushi's shoe off. In the manga, Killua was asking how Sadaso looked like. In the anime they changed to confirm if he's the guy with the one arm. When Killua asked permission to fight from Wing, he never says that date was his birthday, which was a lie of course (Between brackets in the manga), and Gon gives his date as well which he didn't do in the manga. And here comes the big moment. It was excellent by keeping the knife and the lack of music, but they've ruined the element of surprise when they showed Killua's strike before splitting the head. 8.5/10 Spoiler for Episode 33 - Old vs manga/New: Now we get to the old version and how it handled the same event. Unfortunately, the events were in shambles and it was hard to keep track on what's going on in the correct order. Episode 41: After Hisoka x Kastro fight, Gon and Killua goes to Wing to show Gon's progress. The aura does not show the improvement as good as the manga and the new anime. And instead of using the recording of the fight, Zushi practices gyo on Wing. The effects were not as "fiery" as the manga. But wait... there's a problem... if we go forward, and to be exact in episode 42 during Gon's fight with Hisoka, we see in a flashback that they've used the recording to practice gyo. And since they've been able to adapt the scene from the manga, that makes the previous one: But even that had its flaws. Gon and Killua were not able to use gyo and they went to do that later, as so are we. But not without mentioning that Wing said the recording was done in a special way by a nen user. The question here is: Who was that guy? And how can he give Wing the recording just like that? And How did Wing find him? That part was not mentioned in the manga and it was treated as if it's possible to record the nen aura in a regular video with no special ways. And are we going to see something new? No. We all saw what they've shown to us with the exception of Hisoka leaving the arena. Also notice that they've censored the shot when Hisoka chomps his arm. Back to episode 41: After the class, Gon goes out in the woods and practices gyo, and we see... the plants have nen? What?! Did they ever mention that nen exists in all living beings including plants? If that wasn't enough, Hisoka some how feels Gon aura from his room and decides to give a break and ignore his condition to win at least one battle if he wanted to fight him. Hisoka is easy on him here...! Also, this change doesn't make Gon deserve the honor of fighting him with real effort and not by fulfilling Hisoka's condition. Remember. This is the same Gon who refused Hisoka's help in the Hunter Exam and demanded to take his badge back, And yet, we see him accepting Hisoka's call to forget all about it and just fight him just like that? Let's ignore Gon and Hisoka's fight and concentrate on the correct path of events. Episode 43: After the fight, the Evil Trio were discussing about them and their goals. The line was originally said by Sadaso when he was alone in his room. Then we see a fight between Killua and a guy named "Dorado" ((Gee, I wonder what's the meaning of his name!)). This fight is completely filler and did not happen in the manga. Nippon studio is weird! They didn't have time to show us Hisoka x Kastro full fight and yet here they are wasting time with a filler fight? And look at Dorado's bright red color. I don't see anyone complaining about it the same way they complained about Majitani's blue color! Maybe because he's not from the manga, but since when the old anime purists took manga as canon? Anything different from the old anime is wrong for them! And look. Killua got slashed by the spear and he doesn't bleed let alone get a scratch on him! I though the old version was the "brutal, Not kid-friendly" version! I'd like to point this out. The announcers are over the top silly! Look at this one's facial expressions! They changes within a second! And what's the deal with the randomly falling tooth? Did they think it was funny or something? Then we get another filler scene where Wing was talking to Killua about his fighting style and not to follow others' shadows etc. When the Evil Trio stood in the Good Trio's path, Gon gave his date to Sadaso. In the old anime he didn't. When Killua knew that Sadaso broke his promise, he smashed a billboard and the windows of a nearby building. We see the repair in progress. In the manga, when Killua goes to check on Zushi, he watches Hisoka's fight to test his gyo. In the old anime, we see that both him and Gon were able to see the threads and figured out his abilities together. In the manga, Gon was only able to see the threads, but couldn't figure out Hisoka's abilities. They also took their time to explain Kastro's abilities. Howewer, they made Killua ask Wing as if he wasn't there when Kastro explained them in public. Of course, we didn't get to see that in the old anime and had to work it one way or another. Later when Killua asks permission to fight, he gives the date and says that it's his birthday, but we didn't know it was a lie. The old anime also made Wing aware of what's going on which was not confirmed in the manga. What comes after? A training montage. Note that they are practicing their hatsu. We will get to that due time. Here's a note: Killua's and Sadaso's names are written correctly in English instead of whatever language they use in their world. In Killua threatening Sadaso scene, they changed the knife to Killua using his claws. If you asked me, I say it made more sense. Killua's claws are already sharper than knives, so why would he need one? And where did he get one and how did he get past the security with it? Also note that the shading of his eyes were redone in the next episode recap to make it closer to the manga. Also note that Sadaso can indeed move his other arm when he was repeatedly clenching his fist. And again, more over the top reactions by the announcer.
