Path To Gorilla - Hunter x Hunter ep. 66-68: Media Club Plus S01E21
Added 2024-06-27 05:55:34 +0000 UTCWelcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. Killua's gone off to do ther Hunter Exam again, but don't worry: he'll be back very, very shortly. The Game is truly happening in this one. We learn all about trading and we also learn that the teams who've been in Greed Island are total scrubs who literally don't know how to have fun. You know who knows to have fun? Razor, the Pirate King/Gym Teacher who runs a beachfront presidential fitness course. Also Hisoka is here, more than he's ever been before.
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 66-68, titled Strategy x and x Scheme, 15 x 15 and Pirates x and x Guesses. Next episode we'll be covering episodes 69-72, A x Heated x Showdown, Guts x and x Courage, and Bargain x and x Deal,

You've got to show Jack the manga page when they find Hisoka bathing. One of the all-time best (worst?) manga panels. Amazing (horrifying?) use of a speech bubble.

2024-06-28 01:45:29 +0000 UTCI feel like you could localize the dice rolling song as like the way gamblers superstitiously talk to their dice like "daddy needs a new pair of shoes." I forgot how silly the "here we go just one more time" comes off

2024-06-27 15:31:41 +0000 UTCFun Dick Sakura trivia: it's a parody of Japanese electronics department store chain Bic Camera (and its one-time rival, Sakura-ya, before Bic bought it out). I'm pretty sure I bought my DSLR at a Dick Sakura in 2011.
