HH24 Reaction

the father was genuine, he just thinks killua will come back

This is the reason I love this story so much. All your theories about episodes of the gang trying to save Killua and Killua trying to fight out made me laugh, not because they were bad, but because of just how much Togashi ignores conventional storytelling for the sake of his characters. It’s probably my favorite thing about Hunter x Hunter, it also reminds me of shows like Better Call Saul and The Sopranos, where the plot takes a backseat because it’s the characters the writer wants to focus on. We could’ve gotten a long arc where Gon and the gang have to get past his family somehow to get Killua back, but none of it would’ve been as effective at showing Killua’s relationship with his dad and his dad’s perceived control over Killua as the two simple conversations we got. Togashi’s mastery of his craft shines so brightly in these moments.

To add to another comment on here in regards to the Zoldyck sibling names , there is a pattern in their names.The younger sibling's name always starts with the syllable that the previous one's name ended with! Illu-mi to Mi llu-ki ,to Ki llu-a , to (unknown sibling) to Kallu-to which then restarts to the first sibling To mpa. That last one is just a joke LOL

idk if you noticed but some major characters like hisoka or leorio have their own background music, just listen to hisoka's one is the best in my opinion

HxH is def an unpredictable show. You never know what is really coming, this and other things makes it the best shounen ever (for me)

Make sure u don't watch the filler episodes

The scary thing about Silva is how manipulating he is. It's heartbreaking how the only time he sits with Killua and acts like a "good" father figure, is just another play pretend, and plot to control him even more. He trusts Killua to mess up and betray his friends, and be so devastated by the notion that he will come back to them just so he can tell him "I told you".

Yes, Silva is subtly but very deliberately manipulating Killua with those blood vows. He definitely expects Killua to fail as a friend in the future

The way you are both confused is so funny🤣🤣

Them talking about the upbeat music after some depressing thing happens already is hilarious because of that one episode we all know that everyone comments on 😂

Rewatching this show really makes me appreciate the brilliance that was already there, even during the earlier arcs. This episode is another example of classic HxH, where it brilliantly subverts expectations of the shonen genre.

I don't know if you girls noticed but there's a pattern for the siblings names, other than the "llu".

Yeah, HunterXHunter doesn’t tend to follow any generic anime trends. That’s why I love this anime so much lol

Don't forget to skip Episode 26. It's a recap episode.

I forgot how great the music was 😊

Just checked to see if it's up and wow I got lucky lol, thanks for the vid.
