Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. At the same time as we learn what a Chimera Ant is, we learn about how devistating they can be if left unchecked. After meeting up with Kite, Gon and Killua are working with him and his team to track down the location of a new, potentially very dangerous, Chimera Ant Queen. Unfortunately she's taken up residence in a politically and geographically isolated island: the perfect breeding ground for the ants to grow and spread. Oh yeah, and they talk.

As always we are brought to you by Friends at the Table. This season, we're watching 2011's Hunter x Hunter, based on the manga by Yoshihiro Togashi. In this episode we cover episodes 76-78, Reuinion x And x Understanding, Unease x and x Sighting, and Very x Rapid x Reproduction. Next episode we'll be covering episodes 79-82, titled No x Good x NGL,  Evil, x And x Terrible, The x Fight x Begins, and Kite x And x Slots.

Featuring Keith Carberry (@KeithJCarberry, @KeithJCarberry), Jack de Quidt (@notquitereal, @jdq) Sylvi Bullet (@SYLVIBULLET, @SYLVIBULLET) and Andrew Lee Swan (@swandre3000, @swandre3000)

Looking forward to this episode! Thank you for the screencaps as I've not got around to rewatching so they're a great blow by blow

I'm very curious what Jack thinks about how fast the ants show up given the absolute LENGTH of this ark

Begemott

It's finally time to meet the ants....

A conservative amount of screenshots this time

Live your truth. I enjoy matching them up to what you're discussing in the episode.

Austin mentioned the Cell arc in DBZ being a major inflection point but I’d argue this arc shared DNA with the King Piccolo and Frieza arcs for various spoiler reasons I don’t want to get into. Can’t wait for you all to get further in this arc.

If you look very closely at the third to last screenshot with the royal guard eggs, they’re actually breaking out of oversized ‘normal’ ant bodies on the ceiling. The rest of the eggs are the same way but it’s so dark that it’s hard to see. I think the queen gives birth to giant six-legged ants that then metamorph into chimeras.

John Bradley

I think those are structures on the ceiling that the eggs are suspended from.

They’re REALLY hard to see, but hanging from the tip of those ‘stalactites’ are ant bodies that the eggs have seemingly burst out of. There’s a head and legs visible on each. They’re easier to see if you take the screenshot and really crank up the exposure.

This episode was so good. I love the layers of conversation about structure and ecology and the themes that have built up for us to get here. So excited to hear everyone’s thoughts on this arc!
