SOS Bros React - HunterxHunter Season 1 Episode 9 - Spiders Are Officially Evil

That episode was a bit slow, BUUUUT we got some awesome insight into Kurapika's backstory in a very clever way. We are also getting "fights" that don't necessarily involve fighting, which is a breath of fresh air. And did that Phantom Troupe member on the far right look a bit like Hisoka??

I understand your disappointment. For me, these episodes in this tour are certainly the worst of the entire series. Just my opinion...

Kyle

yeah these are the worst 3 episodes in the whole show, don't let them rub off on you too much.

Kyle

The Phantom Troupe is brilliant, in comparison to the Akatsuki that Jacob is familliar with they shove them in the dirt writing wise. I can't wait!

Princess Paladin

Also: Please don't hype them up for stuff that hasn't happened yet/hint/etc. Just let them get there on their own. They're going to watch the show. There's no need to try to entice them by telling them how awesome it will be. XD

Princess Paladin

Just so you guys know in advance, and can skip them, episodes 13 and 26 are recap episodes. They don't do anything clever with them, unlike Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. They can be skipped.

Tife

Let me tell you guys one thing, Hunter X Hunter is full of those dramatic pauses and explanations for things happening, that's why sometimes the fights can get very long.

Ace of Blades

Hopefully they read this. It'd suck if they watched it and then we get one of the two weekly episodes being just a recap.

Them sick burns on Bleach though XD

Kyle

I know, I just love the PT. I agree hints are unnecessary but I didn't give any ep numbers or future references.

Kyle

If you even count them as episodes. I don't think anybody actually watched those.

Salty Jacob! Bring on the sodium!

i hate how everyone shits on the hunter exam arc and says its so bad... like sure maybe its not as good as the later episodes, but its still better than a lot of other anime. if they're as bad as everyone says they are then why did you watch 20 something episodes in the first place, obviously it was good enough to keep you interested and hold your attention. i enjoy the exam arc don't let others opinions get you down. :)

Kamolak

I feel like 99 version handled the early arc or two better

Kyle

The Hunter exam is phenomenal, but eps 9-11 are just really bad and way too dragged out. They don't set the tone for the arc so it's very easy to look over when 12-20 is so great.

I've been reading all your comments and seriously, thats awesome that you payed to be here and all.. but if you really watch their videos they specifically said not to say stuff that you are saying.. just let them watch it lmao..

Shawn

One thing might worth noting is that "phantom troupe" isn't a perfect translation. I don't know but maybe something like "brigade" is better than "troupe" because, as far as I know, there is nothing like entertainers/circus-like stuff implied by the original name.

Zacke

I wouldn't say very long.. there are not that long compared to other long running shounens imo. (freaking bleach, one piece etc having fights lasting 10-30 episodes)
