#palace invasion

IN THE SUMMER SILENCE, I WAS GETTING VIOLENT

one thing that really infuriates me is all the Knov slander i see regarding his inability to fight during the palace invasion arc.

it’s made abundantly clear to us toward the beginning of heavens arena that should one be unprotected by nen when facing another’s aura they will at the very least face serious injury if not die. Hell, Wing even said as much when Gon and Killua were being blocked by Hisoka from entering floor 200.

But Knov? He wasn’t even facing an opponent at Hisoka’s level. He was facing YOUPI (fake news it was actually pouf)! who’s aura is leagues more concentrated and sinister. Yet despite that even after experiencing Youpi’s nen while Knov was in zetsu the worst he came out with was PTSD and hair loss, AND HE STILL DELIVERED!!!

not only did he have one of the most unique and versatile abilities but he straight up tanked that shit yet tall have the GALL to call this man a coward DISGUSTING

It's always so wild watching the Chimera Ant Arc in Hunter x Hunter, like the palace invasion begins in episode 36 of season 5 and currently I'm at episode 42, so 6 episodes of about 22 minutes each, and so far only, according to the timeline online (because yes I looked it up because I wanted to know how long it had been), it has only been 2 minutes 37 seconds and 1 millisecond, the team storms in 96 milliseconds after the day first begins, and most of the rest of the season is used to cover the day, which ends at episode 59-60 so if we're being generous that's 29 episodes to cover a day but most of those only cover the time period of almost 11 minutes and 40 seconds

Like that is fucking insane
