the royal guards cant use telepathy, they said it a while ago (probs too biologically different from the previous generations of ants). they used cell phones to communicate with the other ants like leol

Pouf said downwind because even though smell has to travel on the wind for you to smell it, the wind was going from Gon towards Pouf so there would be no way for Gon to smell him. It was mentioned to show how alert Gon is, he sensed him through zetsu and without being able to smell him.

He didn't kill them because of the respect he has for them and the way they "teached" him and pushed him to evolve and learn to use his nen and control the anger in him. To this point both Pitou and Youpi evolved and changed the way they think of humans. They are getting more humane, love the contrast though the ants turning human and Gon becoming a monster as Meleoron said when he first met him.

youpi matured, he was grateful in a sense to how much his enemies influenced him. he now sees the nuance in things after he learned to control his anger better and transformed. that part of him led him to spare them, but also his natural instincts as a royal guard is saying "kill them" so he's irritated at how much he's changed and cant see things in simple terms anymore. the most moronic looking of the guards has changed so much, he now thinks "turning back on a promise/deal would have been equal to defeat, so i'll let them live since i respect them" - love what togashi did to his character lol that's the most human thing ive seen of the ants so far imo since it's in direct opposition to what's best for the king

Grim

They can't use telepathy.

One of the main changes of youpi is that he learn to detach his rage from him and store it in that shoulder thing. Imagine someone who was from the beginning so full of rage, now doesn't feel it and can think clearly, that make him a whole new character in an instant, I feel thats is the main reason of this sudden change.

Togashi is really a genius

fyi the royal guard are too 'intelligent' for telepathy, as all the other ants did not have the ability to speak regularly thus developing the ability of telepathy. I believe the liutenants or squad leaders were capable of both but not the royal guard. So Pouf 'talking' to Pitou was just an inner monologue narrating his intentions and wants of the discussion from Pitou

That's right, let Togashi COOK!

This is incorrect You cant smell something if you are up wind of it. The smell has to travel on the wind for you to smell it and the wind was going from Gon towards Pouf so there would be no way for Gon to smell him. It was mentioned to show how alert Gon is, he sensed him through zetsu and without being able to smell him.

ChocoBoshi

Lol, you edited your comment and just copied mine XD Your previous comment "Pouf said downwind because thats how Gon noticed him. Gon ended up smelling Pouf even though he was using zetsu to conceal himself and making no noise. Most people couldn't smell someone approaching but Gon is nice with it like that. "

I think when Knuckle was saved by Killua, that was kind of a plot armor moment (even though in retrospect it seems very intentional the way things lined up there), but this seems like just the opposite. If Youpi hadn’t gone through all these developments, he really would’ve killed Morel there, even after making that deal with Knuckle. But this is Youpi’s character now and it makes sense that he doesn’t feel the need to kill them at this point.

ChocoBoshi

The way I interpret Youpi's maturation in this episode is like this Initially, like you said, Youpi didn't like having to think to solve problems but in order to fulfill his prime directive of protecting the King he had to evolve both physically and mentally. As it turned out he was able to appreciate the process of evolving in these ways and because of that appreciation he gained respect for the people who, even though they are inferior to him in multiple ways, were able to push him to the extent to which he was required to improve himself. I think its fair to take his decision to not kill them as arrogance because he essentially says "I can kill you whenever I want" which is something people usually say to assert dominance over someone else or to show off. I think in this case though, as evidenced by the narrators remark that "if Youpi really had the Kings best interest at heart he would kill them all on the spot" I think because of this we can infer that Youpi had a different reason to not kill them because there is no way he would betray the Kings safety because of personal arrogance. That reason, to me, is because in addition to gaining respect for the Hunters he also gained respect for their ideology which had gotten them to this point. The ants are willing to sacrifice even their own comrades lives in order to fulfill a mission but Knuckle was willing to give up the mission and his life if it meant saving one person. I think that Youpi was showing respect for Kuckles resolve and willingness to put someone else's life before his own (something Youpi can relate to because of his relationship to the King) and proving himself to be their better as a combatant, intellectually and ideologically by not killing despite having every right and reason to do so. One of my favorite quotes from Schindler's List is "Power - is when we have every justification to kill, and we don't"

Both Naruto and hxh are about to explode at the same time 🔥

It's very recommended to read the manga after watching the show, especially like this Youpi's part, it's much easier to read from the manga even though the anime did a good job, it's kinda hard to pick up while watching so no worries.

defnotdai

This is my comfort anime for so many reasons. I love how things can be interpreted and looked at from many different angles. The development is never night and day, you have to pick up on the subtle details and characteristics of a character basically since first meeting them and going forward, to fully make sense of their arc.

Usher

I really hope you mean in addition and not instead of the anime

Usher

Who would've ANTicipated that Youpi would evolve so much?

Happy

3:45 holy hell Ron that was a very good catch I never realised this in all my rewatches

EnzoTorales#1Hardenfan

Knuckle is my favorite man he is one the most kind hearted I ever seen on anime

ShaquanVirse

We're finally Mwahahaha here

ShaquanVirse

Oh and y'all plan on reading the manga? I can say the chapter the anime ends at if y'all do

GentleCrank

Next episode is going to be wild 👌

GentleCrank

They said after the show, so after they finish watching it I assume

Aiyuu

I guess you can interpret it as plot amour, but for me, i would only consider sth plot armor if the plot takes a weird / sudden change just to save a certain character and i don’t think it’s the case here. Youpi’s mental maturation, though surprising, isn’t sth that comes out of nowhere. It has been demonstrated many times before chimera ants are capable of change both mentally and physically and they can do so at a very fast rate. It has been shown to us that compared to humans, they learn soo much faster so it’s no surprise that Youpi could evolve so much in such a short time fighting wiht Knuckle. This is genius writing because even if you’re surprised by the change at first, when you think about it, it actually make sense.

Joshua Lopez

Good discussions. You guys are doing great reactions to the show. There's a lot to talk about in terms of development in Hunter x Hunter in this arc, that's why I like it.

Daamon

This is pretty subtle. But Youpi being the only guard with no human traits, just magical beasts traits, actually speaks volume and means more than one would think. Of the three royal guards, he is probably the least ruthless and cruel (ironic isnt it? The one without human genes being the least ruthless), despite his size and evil looks. So for him to let them go isnt really plot armor imo. Youpi might not have a lot of screen time but his change has been there and it's just sometimes too subtle to notice, which happens in HxH a lot.

Tre

Definitely some plot armor going on lol I get that he changed but for him to just let them all go was pretty dumb to me if I’m being honest , just not realistic

Boosted Inferno

Actually they cutted some of the dialog at the start with killua. In the manga Killua said a Japanese term( an honorful way of suicidal of two individuals together) when he was asked what would the worse that could happen to both of them (gon and killua). So killua is once more prepared too throw his life away only to be helpful for gon.

Happy

Just because characters survive/don't die doesn't mean it's always plot armour. If its been bulit up and makes sense it makes sense, Youpi has changed and gained a respect for from fighting these guys. If it were to happen ALL the time then I could understand. But it doesn't in hunter hunter

2024-02-25 18:14:15 I think the downwind thing is more of a bad omen for pouf and I believe that’s how some shows or anime depicts someone that has maybe “luck’s favor” in the moment or that the odds weren’t in Pouf’s favor. Like when Hisoka projected his aura towards Killia and Gon and how they could be seen as “downwind” in a way. I think it’s supposed to be just a quiet message saying “turn back” without saying it. Also pouf seems to be someone that reads people and signs so I think it also made sense for his character to pick up on that kind of thing.

You don’t gotta throw a fit man I like hxh I just can admit to it’s flaws that it has

kirk poss

The royal guard cant use telepathy, all Pouf can do is read emotions and mental states not the thoughts themselves. Thats why he said lead me to it. If he said a correct statement and Pouf's mind was positive and happy that would be affirming it.

King G

it’s not a flaw it’s just characterization. if it was constant then it’d be a flaw

RPMizu

What you said about Youpi about the "appreciation he gained respect for the people who, even though they are inferior to him in multiple ways, were able to push him to the extent to which he was required to improve himself" is so true, and it's exactly what happened to the King with Komugi too, but in a much deeper way.

I'm sorry I can't stop laughing at your reaction to seeing Knov (20:42)
