Woo-hoo! Time to start the plot! |
Today's episode marks the end of the Hunter's Exam arc. There is a bunch of talk about how Illumi was a dick, how Killua may have been hypnotized into killing Bodoro, what exactly Hisoka said to Kurapika, and so on. Really, it was mostly just a summary of the loose ends still dangling and the characters who might matter going forward having one more moment before Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio get a move on with the plot. In this case, the plot is searching for Killua, which means it's time to visit his home. Which is in a faraway country and ends with them running past a bunch of people stuck in traffic as a montage of the Exam plays, putting a nice bow on things, and signaling that it's time to move on.
The big takeaway from this episode between all of the talking was that Gon's father is a big fucking deal. When one of the new guys tried to look up information on him, it was behind a security wall. And even one of the examiners wanted to meet him. What I'm getting at is that maybe there was a good reason for him to stay away from Gon and have no part in raising him. My guess is that I'll find out about Gon's dad sometime in the next twenty to two-hundred episodes. Unless we go full One Piece and it's closer to five hundred. And I just felt a chill run up my spine.
