THE BEST EPISODE SO FAR!! | Hunter x Hunter Ep 47 Reaction

He didn’t bury uvogin face up, he buries him face down as a further sign of disrespect, and he only buried him to give himself time before anyone found the body, he didn’t want the mafia or the troupe to know before he could make further plans against each of them

​@@4myzelf yeah but hed still have to train to make a shovel. Thats. How the power system works. Just because you can do one OP ability doesnt mean you can instantly do any lesser ability. Unless youre YouKnowWho, because thats like, his gimmick. And this is especially the case for Conjuration. You have to know the anatomical, physical, and mechanical features of everything you create. I dont think Kurapika wasted like a week learning how to make a shovel but. Who knows lol

[@JavoZier]

I mean, the troop members SAW the chain when it took Uvo away. And yes, it was the spiders that killed Kurapika's clan. It's not a spoiler because they've been telling us since the beginning of the series.

[@luisjauregui2197]

What she meant by the whole "Maybe it wasn't the spiders" is that perhaps someone could have framed them for it. A wild theory without much foundation, but I don't think it was worth it to just outright deny it

[@HiImDaisy]

@@luisjauregui2197 I mean, I get it. It's not completely implausible, but "There was a bunch of them." line from Uvo could imply so many things. We already know Uvogin doesn't care what he does as long as he gets to have fun. Maybe raiding the Kurta village just didn't mean anything to him and so he forgot. It was just an order from the boss.

[@stanmarsh4566]

Spoilers: Reading the latest manga chapters, won't surprise me if they just took the blame to sound scary. It's a thing they mentioned in the new chapters. How they would pretend to be the villains. We have no idea still what Togashi is thinking. My opinion is, half of the members do remember what they want to do, while other half feel the thrill just like Uvo does when he fights. So maybe half of them have lost their way as they grew up, and other half just remember who they really are. In this case, the whole thing with Pakunoda in ten or so episodes. Of course anime hasn't caught up with the recent manga chapters, as I believe you do know. So Even her theory, wouldn't be come to question anyways.

[@revolution2762]

⁠@@HiImDaisyit honestly baffles me that she thinks it wasn’t kurapika’s whole village they killed just because he didn’t specifically say the word village. Idk about you, but to me him saying that there were a bunch of them in the middle of nowhere just means it was an isolated village.

[@deutschekartoschka2783]

The level of disrespect to bring a shovel to a fight. He was ready to pack him up XD

[@HiImDaisy]

They know Kurapika as “The chain user” because they interacted with the shadow beast and chased the car. Uvogin has already interacted with Kurapika, and once he escaped he met up with Franklin and Shalnark and exchanged info.

It's so freaking basic and they're over here trying to be the Hardy Boys solving a mystery that was already explained. Trying to nitpick Uvogin's words instead of realizing he has just killed so many people and never cared about them at all that a name didn't mean anything to him. It was seeing Kurapika's eyes that reminded him. Like... YES. YES, HE AND THE PHANTOM TROUPE KILLED THEM ALL. THAT'S LITERALLY WHAT HAPPENED. XD XD XD

Raul Julia as Bison was the only good thing in that movie

[@wawan3961]

Even after being up to date with the manga and bonus chapters, I still thnik there's a chance for the spider troupe being the scapegoat in this story. They definitly killed some of them but did they massacre the whole village ? Not so sure... However, it might make sense that they killed everyone because they just wanted as many eyes as possible. And they did it in a cruel way so all the eyes would turn scarlet just before they killed them. With how the troupe members are portrayed as people who don't care about killing randoms, it could be possible too

[@davenaldrich3985]

@@henrikbartnes8424 not really, to conjure something you have to think about it constantly, visualizing it, dreaming about it, making your whole life about the thing you want to conjure. Kurapika focused hard on those chains so he wouldn’t be able to just conjure up a shovel on a whim.

[@henrikbartnes8424]

@@davenaldrich3985 from what we’re given about conjurers and how it relates to the other powers he should increase his proficiency in conjuring in general when making something, so working to make the chains for months means he is better at making other things, also the chains are infinitely more complicated than the shovel, that is obvious, he could’ve worked for a week to make it if you want it to be that hard

[@yuzmanito]

My guy, it's not disrespect. It's the complete opposite. He hated that guy, but as this episode proves, time and time again, he hates killing people, he hates how it makes him feel.

[@MidnightLucario1]

As you guys see, the only risky act Kurapika did was try to face all the spiders as once...But in terms of 1v1, they're all goners. Kurapika pretty much fashioned himself into the Phantom Troupe's grim reaper

[@normalpeoplelikeme]

I don't know about that staying true for Chrollo…

[@pedrohenriquedasilvaroque1085]

It's hard to say, before they knew about Kurapika's abilities, he would be able to eliminate all non-combatants with ease (Shalnark, Pakunoda, Shizuku, Kurtopi) while members with offensive abilities would be difficult. Now even in a 1vs1 Kurapika is at a disadvantage, since all the members of the troupe know how most of his abilities work, in addition to the fact that Hisoka and Kurapika's actions made them more alert, making catching them by surprise more difficult.

[@ryanpalyo8181]

9:30 not true. He said you can't conjure UNBREAKABLE chains. 12:40 Uvo just said he didn't remember them, because they kill so many people. Has nothing to do with him not being there or only killing some. It was just meant to highlight that the Troupe does not care whatsoever for anyone that they kill. They mean nothing to them. 13:30 being a specialist itself is not op, it's just the category your nen gets put in if it doesn't fit into any other category. The ability he uses while he's a specialist is op though, yes.

[@Blewlongmun]

I was never a big fan of Kurapika because it felt like he got very strong offscreen and then vanished from the story but on re-watch I think he's significantly less powerful than he initially seems. Uvo was meant to test his strength vs someone in Zetsu but with that ability locked to the spiders Kurapika falls into the same category as the dude who cloned himself. The training with Bisky supports this, his Nen won't compound properly putting so much time into enhancement.

[@Bigtoor69]

@@Blewlongmun We can also kind of see that currently in the manga. I mean he almost died because he wanted to controll a mosquito. He is still very good with nen tho

[@Blewlongmun]

@@Bigtoor69 So was Castro and Hisoka made the point he’d ruined his own potential, I think Kurapika even knows he’s given a lot just to rush his revenge.

[@ErrrEok]

@@Blewlongmun You have totally misunderstood. Kurapika really is as strong as he seemed to you at first, even MUCH stronger (taking into account the current situation of the manga). Kurapika does not lose any potential, since he has two Nen categories, Conjurer and Special. Therefore, he has two Hatsus, Cadenas and Emperor Time. Kurapika uses both hatsus at the same time, where one of them (ET) allows him to use 100% of all Nen categories. He is not even remotely similar to Kastro, who developed a hatsu completely removed from his category. Regarding his improvement in Nen, on the contrary, Kurapika is the one who can improve much more. He explains it himself, his ability to control the other Nen categories increases proportionally to his own abilities. He only remembers the power that he demonstrated with less than 6 months of training, reaching the level of Ryodan, who are above the Elite. He imagines how much he could improve with all this time.

[@Blewlongmun]

@@ErrrEok But how does that correlate to training? Having potential doesn’t mean he has skill which is my point with Bisky. Training as an enhancer means training emition and transmutation 2nd and summoning and manipulation 3rd, even if he has the aptitude for it he’ll never overcome an individual of a certain category because they can focus their training around that ability. Kurapika has 2 hatsu, 5 chains, and 6 categories he needs to train equally, compared to just an enhancer he’ll fall behind in the long-run without some other equalizer. Consider Uvo again, Kurapika’s 100% Ko was by his words just barely stronger than Uvo’s pure physical strength in Zetsu. He’s not exactly like Castro because he does have the talent for it but his scenario itself will require significantly more training than anyone else. If not, that just puts every reason I dislike him back on the list, it feels real weird to place specific restrictions and then Kurapika magically breaks those rules off-screen.

[@MrNoubari]

When a friend of mine introduced me to Kurapika he told me that he was Sasuke but well made and damn he's right, he's definetively my fav from HxH

[@Naucturna]

To say Sasuke isn't well made is weird to me, a lot of people forget what ACTUALLY happened to him. Pawn him off as some edgelord like he didn't watch his parents murdered by his favorite person over and over again for 72 hours..let alone everything else. Just like Naruto is actually crazy thinking he can control other people and make them do as he wants versus what they want good or bad.

[@ryanpalyo8181]

other way around. Sasuke is Kurapika but poorly written. HxH came out first, and the Uchiha were directly inspired from the Kurta. Red eyes that come out due to high emotion and grant a power boost, so the Scarlet Eyes directly inspired the Sharingan

[@Brutalyte616]

To clarify, Emperor Time isn't as broken as it's made out to be. Kurapika is a Conjurer, so ordinarily it'd be difficult for him to learn Enhancer abilities, and borderline impossible for him to learn any kind of practical Emission or Manipulator abilities, because the overall efficiency of each one decreases by about 20% for each category you go over on the chart, and Conjurers and Manipulators have it the worst by being on the extreme ends of the spectrum, only being able to use the opposite category at 1/5th its potential. What Emperor Time actually does is let Kurapika use each category at 100% efficiency as if it was his natural affinity, which makes him extremely versatile but not a true master of any category outside of Conjuration as that's the one he's most experienced with, and it shows because his Healing Thumb ability provides incredible restorative properties, but he's using it as a healing item rather than a power boost like Uvogin would with his Big Bang Impact, and that's a byproduct of how Kurapika thinks; instead of making a weapon out of his chains that would be strengthened using the powers of an Enhancer, he's thinking like a Conjurer and creating an item out of Nen with special properties like a Transmuter would, which makes sense because he has a better grasp of Transmutation because it's adjacent to Conjuration. This is also why it's possible for him to become a Specialist; ordinarily Specialist is a category unto itself that can't be learned and obeys its own particular set of rules, but those most likely to be able to develop a Specialist ability or somehow become Specialists later in life are Manipulators and Conjurers, whereas it's basically impossible for an Enhancer to develop a Specialist ability. That being said, these are guidelines, not ironclad rules, and part of the fun of watching and reading Hunter X Hunter is trying to work out all the little details, as there are exceptions and peculiarities throughout the series, like Kurapika being able to temporarily become a Specialist and use a Specialist ability due to a biological and psychological quirk unique to him, although you're still right to think Emperor Time is really damn strong, because having access to at least 5 different Nen abilities is very powerful. If Kurapika was more self aware and willing to completely abuse this power to break the system or wasn't so single-minded in his quest for revenge against the Phantom Troupe, he'd probably be one of the strongest Nen users in the series.

[@montanawhisler1066]

Since it'll never be fully explained in the anime, Emporee Time does have a drawback. From what I remember, every second in emporer time shaves years out of his lifetime. Which makes since, considering that if you want more power, you need to put restrictions upon yourself.

It's broken somewhat, he can use full-mastery of all the techniques but he doesn't really gain any extra power. His 100% enhancer power against Uvogin's 100% enhancer power would get him stomped, but it gives him versatility. The conditions for chain-jail are what make it so powerful. Imagine gaining superpowers but then deciding to only ever use it against a dozen people or you die. There are also the drastic downsides to using Emperor Time, but Kurapika only cares about the revenge.

[@mordirit8727]

Condition. 99% of what will end up mattering when you consider the power of Nen is Condition. Kurapika is basically born with a Condition = Power setup in his own genes. Only if he is psychotically angry enough for his eyes to go red can he get access to his Specialist powers. It's highly likely that the Kurata Clan, even not knowing consciously about Nen, were unkowingly taking advantage of this very power, which is IMO the best explanation to why the Phantom Troupe, broken that they are, would have possibly rememebred them as a "strong opponent." Look at the way a single member of the Troupe mows through a literal army armed with guns and anti-tank missiles when wielded by non Nen users. The Kurata must have all been broken like Kurapika for Uvo to remember them as putting up a fight.

[@TheArcSet]

A possibility, but while their are bloodline affinities, I'm not certainly that a specialist affinity would make sense, as by definition either being/becoming a specialist, or obtaining a specialist ability is an abnormality that breaks the normal rules. Emperor Time is also extremely specific to Kurapika: he was obsessed with sacrificing himself to avenge his people; was told his biology was an obstacle to that; then awakened an ability that consumed his life to overcome his biology, with a trigger condition that required him to be in the state he associated most with his rage for his enemies. For all Kurta to have that ability would be a callosal coincidence.

[@mordirit8727]

@@TheArcSet sorry, I meant to say that they all probably have the burst of aura Kurapika has. With it they could at least fight the Troupe. Of course, without any knowledge of what it is and how to use it, they stood no chance, but it makes sense Uvo would say they were strong and put up a resistance.

[@mihaimorar2043]

Welcome to Emperor Time, one of the most bullshit abilities in all of Nen. Kurapika's chains are genuinely so busted. Even if you ignore Emperor Time, it's just such a versatile ability, offering physical weapons, healing, lie detection, among others.

[@Unspecifiedweeb]

It's really not that OP. The limitations imposed on the ability are pretty harsh. Kurapika only seems OP because he was really smart about it, and knew how to take full advantage of the ability while bypassing the limitations.

[@HiImDaisy]

Eh. I mean, 1. Chain Jail only works on Spiders. 2. Dowsing Chain is more of a information/support ability. 3. Judgement Chain is cool, but hard to do anything with if your opponent is faster or has anyway of distracting/stopping you from setting a rule. 4. Holy Chain is good, but I imagine it's worse outside of emperor time since Kurapika would not be as good with enhancer abilities. Plus, the downside of emperor time being Kurapikas is losing his life the longer he spends time using the ability. It's... a lot of risk.

[@Unspecifiedweeb]

@@HiImDaisy everything you're saying is correct, but your missing something most people miss... While emperor gives you 100% affinity for all nen types, it's limitations disallow you from actually developing a hatsu that makes use of said affinities. In other words, while Kurapika may be able to enhance his fist more effectively than a standard conjurer, he still wouldn't be able to have a really powerful ability that relies on enhancement the same way a natural enhancer might. All emperor time really gives him is a bit more options during combat. He's able to have an advantage over non enhancers in close range combat and maybe use basic emitter attacks... By itself emperor time really ain't a big deal.

[@TheArcSet]

​@@Unspecifiedweeb Manga spoilers, but that's not exactly true. I'd say it's the reverse, in that you develop hatsu you need Emperor Time to use and the cost of that is far higher than the anime ever explains. It's incredibly powerful, as it gives you potential that's overwise impossible, but the cost makes it never worth it.

[@Unspecifiedweeb]

@@TheArcSet yes that's exactly what I am saying. Due to the limitations, while he theoretically could develop a hatsu that uses enhancement or emition, it's not really worth it, thus the ability isn't that powerful. Even when not taking into account the effects on his lifespan revealed later on... just knowing that it significantly drains him is enough for one to realize that he probably wouldn't be able to make full use of the 100% efficiency when developing other hatsus. It's an ability that sounds way more OP than it actually is.

[@aku896]

Thank you azu

[@aku896]

enhancer alicia you always make my day 😄

[@FurogiKyuusui]

the truth is Kurapika's nen is conjuring the shovel and not the chain lmao

[@matthewpopow6647]

You joke but it wouldn’t surprise me. Like he had two skill points left over but couldn't put it in anything relevant so... shovel

[@brianmclain1955]

Thanks Azu

[@OneReallyGrumpyJill]

There is still a lot for you to learn, but I'll just say this for now - was I the only one who felt like Uvo was borderline goading Kurapika into attacking him when I first saw this one? It would be unorthodox, but man, you really should just do manga reaction to HxH after you are done with anime, lol - not like any of us living long enough to see season 2

[@playboitex5736]

I don’t think it will explain it in there anime but when ever he is in the red eye state he is a specialist which is whe looks so op in this fight

[@TopPigg]

Someone point her to CJ dachamp covering Kurapika xD

[@hellsing12]

I’m a big fan of this episode in the old Hunter x hunter anime. It’ll be cool if you guys check out that scene Sometime, I remember it hitting me pretty hard.

[@anderzdraconian1276]

You know...? I never realized that before, but yeah... It IS kinda fucked that Kurapika is already able to heal people when Leorio is the one going through medical school for that...

[@ryuddaeng6383]

Maybe I'm just dumb but Kurapika can just VIEW anyone as part of the Phantom Troupe or Spider and he is unstoppable. If he can do that I mean....

[@xzkilerymax8395]

no the have to actually be a member of the phantom Troup I think

[@Player15630]

Uvo my Goat rest in peace

[@theheavenlybuddha1859]

I really liked uvo and the rest of the phantom troupe, sure a group of murderers and psychos but shizu is bad as hell, and all the other troup members really mesh well with one another and it shows how expericed they all are

[@Krash2o]

That is not respect, you guys don't understand: He brought a shovel to the fight. He knew he was gonna put this dude six feet under so he prepared the tools to do it in advance. Actual gangster behavior don't ever even breathe in his direction.

[@alchemicpunk1509]

I am so glad I'm not using my headphones for this stretch of episodes, my misophonia would have me skipping hours.

[@team4star1]

A diggy diggy hole ⛏️😐

[@XxWARLORD10xX]

Well no more episode 48 of this on youtube Thanks for that comment section 😢

[@typhoonofsteel5425]

Are you guys planning on watching the hxh movies? Both of them are up on youtube for free if you want to download them beforehand :p

[@georgeide2337]

The information about the nen condition is very important not sure if you picked up on what it ment, Kurapikas chains during emperor time is only OP against the troupe members as per his condition, should he break that vow the chain in his heart will kill him. Kurapika is much smarter about nen than the other 3 but he is only precived much stronger at this point because of his abilites against the troupe.

[@pablox2139]

just chain jail

[@JohnCena-tp4gh]

Day 243 of asking Alicia to play Nier:Automata!!

[@RaeTekd]

Day 13 of asking Alicia to react to that time I got reincarnated as a slime

[@mranonymous00]

So you can force others to use zetsu ? .... How does that work?

[@luckluca8982]

Manipulation

[@TheArcSet]

I'm guessing an application of manipulation.

[@rippercyclotron3803]

OP? Those are not the only conditions he have. Its much worse than that

[@erikbihari3625]

And here i thought you're cool.

[@nyallleary1643]

[@VegaSlides]

KuraPeaka

[@snakefish18]

I hope she watches CJ Dachamp’s most disrespectful moments in anime videos😂
