Revenge × and × Recovery

Hunter x Hunter is easily one of the best TV series that has consistently brought its tone to its A game, and episode 116 is easily one of its best. For 20 minutes, this episode does an absolutely phenomenal job at building tension through Gon's confrontation with Neferpitou. It uses every single aspect of anime to its absolute best, and I love that this episode limits itself only to the confrontation.

As expected from Madhouse, the animation is wonderful. Megumi Han's performance as Gon for this episode was genuinely fantastic, she perfectly captures Gon's anger and despair. The editing is perfect, it made the visualizations' sense of flow even more perfected than the last few episodes. The interactions between the three characters are easily the best parts of the episode, I don't recall feeling so many shivers and dropping so many tears for a while.

This episode is the best outcome for the continuation of events, watch the anime and form your opinion on it.

I almost cried at Gon's passionate yelling for real.

After all, Gonnis just a child with lack of experience in life.. God, he's so childish in this episode.. the worst episodes in this anime.. This is happen in Kurapika story, but the experience in life make him wise enough.. not like Gon this time, too immature..

Easily a 10/10 episode, those who give it less than 10 are just mad because there was no fight, that's all!

This ep made me FEEL the INTENSE rage that was building up so powerfully! And the way it was recorded, Gon's voice,in Japanese.. woow! AMAZING
