this is explained in next episodes by the narrator and by some characters. It's not a helpful correction, just lack of patience

Remember how Knov was the one nagging killua for running away like a coward, good writing right there

Neferpitou aura is red and their En can expand for a long distance, Pouf aura is blue and his En has a short range

I mean, we've seen borderline pedophiles in the show, but for me there has never been a thought of "oh, this ability would be perfect for abducting/graping children" wtf?

He didn't judge Killua he was teaching him. If Killua got salty (like you are) he would have never learned the lesson. Thats how a lesson goes in one year and out the other. Its more important to understand it then to get salty about little things. Specially when its coming form a pro hunter that is 100 times more experienced then you

my comment was towards that pouf's intentions are evil and worse we haven't seen him do anything so saying he's worse than PITOU at this point is huge spoilers my guy
Salvatore
2024-02-23 16:13:58 +0000 UTC
@Notkorra you dont know what a spoiler is my dude.... this has been established Pouf is using his en while Pitou is healing the King. thats why this is an opening for Knov to infiltrate the palace in the first place. not a spoiler, definitely a helpful correction to those that didnt realize it.

People get more mature with time obv, you may grow to understand such a character the more you grow and have diffrent expierences in life but it isn't a must you can understand a character and never think they're intersting so there's that (:
Salvatore

Knov only spoke up after Killua said none of them could beat Pitou he didn't mock Killua for running or being afraid like Morel, hell he even told Morel to stop after Morel called Killua a loser

Yeah but Morel isn't a hypocrite.

Knovs infiltration and breakdown is definitely a highlight of this stretch of the arc. Incredibly tense and perfectly acted
Darrach

True but Knov still judged Killua without having full information still.
From: "Go lie in bed, we'll take from here."
To: "How can you bring yourself to fight?"
Hey, I'm not faulting Knov. I just admire the contrast in his perspective when the arc started compared to now that he as first hand experience of the Guard's presence.

It was mostly Morel who gave him a hard time in that scene lol

Remember when Knov gave Killua a hard time for running away from Pitou because of her immense aura? I did. 😼

There's nothing scarier than taxes, that is true.

I've heard this over and over again, yet it makes no sense because Knov didn't actually come in contact with Pouf's En, he only saw it and sensed it from up close. Had he actually touched it, then Pouf would've been alerted by his presence.
Gaboxxy
2024-02-23 02:39:35 +0000 UTC
I mean, weird observation but ok lol
Gaboxxy
2024-02-23 02:37:33 +0000 UTC
@ForeignKarma if it's smaller than Pitou's, then it's objectively weaker. The whole point of En is to occupy as much space as possible. To say Pouf is weaker or stronger in other aspects of nen is another discussion.

Liking Knov more as you've grown older is kinda sus.

his nen tho (:

no shaiapouf this episode ):
Salvatore
2024-02-23 01:55:04 +0000 UTC
i actually think his nen is more malicious than pitou's since his intentions are worse, pitou's is more like a powerful wild animal, which is intimidating for its possibilities, but not necessarily evil like pouf's

2024-02-23 01:54:59 +0000 UTC
he was using hatsu so no not really
Salvatore
2024-02-23 01:53:28 +0000 UTC
knov's scene not only adds a lot to his character but it reminds us the viewers of how serious the situation is, since the king started playing games the enemies may have looked less intimidating but this episode gives that feeling back again so we can understand how hard it looks from the hunter's side.
Salvatore
2024-02-23 01:51:44 +0000 UTC
Knov didn't touch Pouf's nen. He was at the edge of his en but could feel how powerful and awful it was without even touching it. He later says how Gon and Kill actually touched it.
He's just not built like our boys.
Shivering King Banana
2024-02-23 01:37:45 +0000 UTC
I wouldn’t say it’s weaker nen it’s still strong & has a scary presence but pitou nen is just straight up malicious and diabolical

"Knuckles ability name doesn't sound like a real thing" Chapter 7 bankruptcy which turns into IRS is very real. Going off names alone Knuckles has the scariest ability out of anyone.

2024-02-23 01:11:27 +0000 UTC
Remember when Wing-san told us that facing nen threats without defending yourself with your own nen is like walking around naked in a storm? That was pretty much what happened to Knov. He was using zetsu to conceal his presence, and then his body was left unprotected, so he couldn't defend himself from Pouf's nen.

Knov's ability would be excellent for a human trafficker.

Slow episode but I can’t wait for the next one tbh. The dude with glasses wasn’t that interesting to me the first time I saw him and I wouldn’t mind seeing him go either lol but his ability is very useful.. I will give him that.

and now imagine knov actually saw pitous aura 💀
Addie
2024-02-23 00:09:55 +0000 UTC
Just for those who didn't realize it, the En that Knov saw was actually Shaiapouf's, not Pitou's. Pitou's En is red and goes much further. Pouf was using his weaker En while Pitou was healing the king, which is why it was only up at the staircase.
