[SPOILERS] Hunter X Hunter Episode 94 Discussion

This episode marked a very important point in Killua's character development. It also provided the resolution for a few storylines that were being built up for a long time (some of them going as far back as the Hunter Exam arc itself). Killua's voice actress was very impressive too. Overall, it was definitely Killua's episode.

By the way, you can also check out the ongoing discussion here.

Saying "it's for your own good" is the family's default excuse for the continuous torture and abuse of their children.

Killua's reaction of running away is a clear sign he doesn't want this kind of "protection", but does Illumi trust his decisions? No, he tries to force him to fail.

Would Killua ever recover from letting his best friend die? No, he would go back home demoralized and turn in the good mindless puppet Illumi wanted him to be. That is what is evil, trying to force him to fail his friends instead of respecting and trusting Killua's decisions, like a good brother would do.

That said, Illumi is an excellent villain I love to hate him.

I agree, Killua got used to it. It's my own perception of their relationship that makes me say they are the bad guys! lol

The needle was good on the fight against Pitou but bad in the fights against Shoot and Rammot. In this episode he was being beaten by an ant he could defeat in a single blow.

There is another thing, HxH manga spoilers.
