Signal x to x retreat is the best ending Yorknew arc could get. Kurapika's character arc came to an end. I love how Kurapika completely change. His change kind of reminds me of Thorfin's from Vinland Saga. He stopped caring about revenge and focused on the people that are dear to him. He really became a ''true warrior''.
I can't help myself but enjoy how humanly Phantom troupe members act and talk and how they care for each other. We really get some empathy for them.
In this episodes we witness the first Hisoka's defeat. The scene where Chrollo realises that he is no Phantom Troupe member and tells him about his Nen is wonderfully pulled off and it feels unique in it's own way.
The Nen power system works well. Viewers can try and predict what will happen next but the outcome is still unpredictable. This is what makes it so special.
There is one thing that I can't stand in this series and it's it ridiculously long dialogue. One of the rules of storytelling is ''Show, don't tell''. In some episodes the dialogue is alright, all cool. But in this episode it felt like characters were reading some song readings or a book. I guess that is suits the atmosphere but it still annoys me and I am probably the only one feeling it.
There are still a lot of themes I could try to explain in this review but I feel like there is no need to do so.
9.0/10.
