  4. ^ It was a good way to introduce the outside world. Just one being out of the vastness of the outside world. He may be OP but he isn't going to be to strongest being. Lame? I thought it was a good way to kill the King seeing as he was ridiculously strong. You can't always have your way, hun. Again, one being that went into the human world. They had to kill him in desperation.

    And also, why would there be lots of filler. Since when has the new HxH episodes ever had filler? The story is progressing very fast. Anyone even know HxH?
