Nen is literally life energy so I imagine you can sustain yourself on it for extended periods of time. Anime logic.

knowing so much of everything that happens so swiftly is really something i'd like to see more from anime actually because of HxH, i dont want big energy waves i dont want countless bunches, i want details~~~~ little moves, some thoughts, some character developments, well unless you make it emotional then it's a whole other story

You're definitly right about that, but what about Neteros flashback. He threw the punches, then slept and repeat. At least drink some water, man.

I cant tell you much about the details and im not acurate but I think this is a reference to a legend where a monk was able to survive years without eating and gain pure enlightenment.
Even Neteros ability (The Statue) is based on the religion the legend is rooted in.

yeah it might be weird for some people but i liked it :) since what kept happening from now on was so chaotic ya kinda needed it to be on the same page

they had more than enough stuff or atleast potential to have that stuff inside knovs nen ability and for all we know netero could have been back shortly when we didn see it to refuel really

Sooo do hunters need food/water like normal people? I'm guessing no, since Netero somehow hasn't kicked the bucket yet

This episode is when HxH became a visual novel, so much narration and exposition! It's cool the second time around, but it really bugged me first time, probably because I had the wrong expectations for the pacing
Lærke
2018-08-29 14:49:00 +0000 UTC
And I agree in part.
I.e. I find it was unnecessary to show netero bitchslapping pitou twice in ultra slowmotion

Alot of people didn't like the heavy narration on this arc, I enjoyed it though.

They keep bringing up rts mechanics, I wonder if they clicked with the idea that en is basically acting as a literal fog of war.

Yes we've had it from the beginning, but never this heavily. Usually it's just introducing the episode, and closing the episode out, with an occasional scene in the middle here or there. But now, he literally has the most spoken dialogue of any character in this arc, and is speaking from start to finish.
People are obsessed with how they handle the narrator, because this is one of their favorite shows, and they really want them to love it too, but they are well aware that a lot of people get turned off by the sudden increase in amount of narration, and are worried that they may also be turned off by it. There is nothing worse then hearing that someone doesn't like your favorite show, so they worry is completely justified.
Derrick, "arguably" is the best way to put it, lol, because most people fall into one of two camps, it's either "the most important part" or it's "the most useless part" and really, there is no "right" view. Everyone views the series in a different way, and wants different things out of it.

It's arguably the most important part of the first dozen or so "palace assault" episodes. So many subtle, little things are occurring SO quickly and in a weird way, it would sometimes be more awkward to have a character think or say it themselves; which is usually how critics suggest solving the narration "problem". I'm with you, I love it. The narrator goes from being the usual "necessary background info" to a full fledged fly-on-the-wall character, as far as I'm concerned.

That's so weird. We've had narration since episode 1, and this arc doesn't work without it.

Love how Caleb almost immediately picked up the importance of narration/exposition. I remember I was a bit annoyed it at first, but after you realize how freakishly fast the events in next 15+ episodes go, it really is needed.

It's one of the most common complaints about this part of the story. It gets really heavy on the narration on what everyone's doing/thinking/thinking of doing next and you name it. Personally I love it because it just fits in my opinion but a reasonable amount of people don't enjoy it as much.

Why is everybody obssessed with how they handle narration? The whole show has been using narration.

Its slower because the things are happening so fucking fast, thats why Togashi is using a narrator.
