I have a quick question about HxH (2011) if anyone knows the answer. It isn't super important but it is bugging me. I've finished up to episode 100 but I think this specific thing happened in the early 90s.
So Killua had a needle in his brain that told him to run from strong foes, and it activated during the fight with the rabbit ant... but then once he took the needle out he wrecked the rabbit in one move? Why did the needle activate against a foe that Killua was blatantly stronger than? Maybe it was set to activate for anyone beyond a certain Nen threshold even if Killua had surpassed it, but that seems dumb too since then it wouldn't activate against anyone below that threshold even if they were stronger than Killua. It doesn't really matter but if they're going to go with a physical Nen needle instead of purely psychological fear, the needle needs to make sense!
This incredibly minor nitpick aside, I'm still enjoying the arc. Biscuit coming back was the best and Palm has been great too. ---
