That infiltration scene is one of the most terrifying scenes in anime. Amazing writing. Interesting you mentioned how he is a gambler because that whole scene was Knov testing his luck, seeing how close he could get. Fortunately he cashed out in time lol
Not to mention the amazing voice acting during the mental breakdown.
hank jones considering the show hadn’t pulled any punches up until then, all bets were off. I don’t think I’ve ever been as anxious watching an anime scene, since probably FMAB. It was that good.
Many don't get that Knov used Zetsu when he was facing PItous Aura. So it basically means nothing.
Also, Knov is a dump name. Objectively!!
Isnt it totally Weird how no Zodiac was taken with Netero to the NGL?! Did he even take this thing seriously?
@@slevinchannel7589 None of the Zodiacs were taken to NGL because Pariston interfered apparently. Also Netero had already planned to leave the Association to them, so he didn't want any of them to die.
@@doctorpygmy6020 But would they have died? Seems unlikely, doesnt it?
Poor guy. He had a real nice head a hair too.

@@ryderls2729 Then remind me.
@@slevinchannel7589 look it up
@@ryderls2729 What?
Yo. not gonna lie. when I first watched the infiltration scene, i was nervous af. knowing how HxH treats their characters, i was lowkey expecting him to get wrecked. I was freaking relieved after it was all over.
Yeah, same 😅
even know when i watch that scene im still scared if hes gonna die or not it like i just get brainwashed
my fucking hart was going faster than koro-sensei, i near had a panic attak when the ant came
hahah same😅.
Knov's breakdown after feeling the evil En is more disturbing tha. His probability of dying during infiltration, props to Japanese VA
I wouldn't even say it's trauma that stops Knov from setting foot on the Dark Continent, it's just him choosing to learn from the past and not touch it. Not courageous but certainly smart.
As they say when the going gets tough the tough get going
Ah L the greatest detective of all time
knov doing the mission all alone and still pulled it off, what a man.
This is a breakdown of Knov's breakdown
Ahahahah, well played. 😂😂
hahaha nice one
ahh another intellectual
Don't let it distracted you that bungee gum possesses the properties of both rubber and gum
Bravo!
Knov's breakdown has to be one of the most underrated moments in the chimera ant arc not only the moment itself the voice acting was perfect seeing a normally cool calm and collected character absolutely breakdown in tears was pretty much heartbreaking and i was speechless during that scene
The breakdown I could understand. But the HAIR? that's brutal.
@@jugemujugemugokonosurikire4735 he was so scared he went through chemo
Knov has the the nen abbility i want to have the most XD
His ability is f*king dope.
Pervert
alexander abes huh?
@@alexanderabes9328 That's not being a perv. He'd need to place a portal to teleport to the place he wants before doing something naughty.
@@alexanderabes9328 As a true pervert, I'd prefer the girl's Manipulator Nen ability from the YorkNew City arc. The one where she makes anyone she kisses, her love slave. I would abuse the fk outta that power.
Damn. This character. This dude shows me that the Ant Arc actually had legitimate weight. I paused my watching sometime into it, but this video pushes me back to being interested. Thanks man
I took a break during the Chimera Ant arc as well. It's a long investment...
@@NewWorldReview at some point through it I had seriously begun to wonder if I was watching the same show or if there had been a mix up on the video player. It's a whole nother genre for a while. I'll slog it out for these character arcs though
I really googled to see if it was filler and i could skip. I was pleased to find out that there is no filler 😂
Can you imagine having his ability tho. You're never have to pay extra for luggage!
screw that, you don't have to pay rent! or car garage
I would just live there. Free real estate.
Man, his ability would be useful for quarantine.
You could legit never get caught
Knov after hair goes white
Palm: I-
Palm got so beautiful while knov lost hair 😅
Palm: *"Let me lend you some of my hair"*
Ahahahhaha
I didnt like Knov at 1st but he definitely grew on me. Even after being scared shitless he forced himself to finish his mission for the sake of everyone else.
I laughed when I read that Knov would help on the expedition but wasnt stepping foot on the dark continent.. who can blame him?😂
How about a HxH101 on Pariston? If you haven't done one already
A person has done an analysis on pariston on YT. I'm sure this person will do one as well
what a stand up guy defo agree with thos
Knov was talking shit about killua and then he only felt pouf aura and he literally shit himself, bitch ass nigga
Alistair Kaname who can blame him though? He basically felt that shit naked.
Steven Walker I think he only got traumatized is bc he was using Zetsu in the palace so when Pitou nen came back he was defenseless to block it. 🤔
Honestly, Knov has such OP ability, that it was correct from narratative perspective to somehow keep him from action. Technically he can kill any enemy with single attack, just by trapping part of enemy into his hatsu.
You cannot give him long and dramatic anime fight. Or he defeat opponent fast, or enemy has to take him out even faster.
Innersoulwithinme exactly only way to make limit him was to pull so bs out the ass to stop his ability from being a one shot
Knov+meleoreon vs meruem I'd still pick knov
@@kkuwana meleoron completely erases his presence, so basically, if knov and meleoron were to form a team, none of the royal guards or meruem would even know what’s happening, allowing him to kill them allx
ZA HANDO
@@ainucradle The second one of the royal guards or the king get hit they would notice something is wrong and would completely destroy the place, including Maleoron and Knov.
Not gonna lie, If I were to choose of all the abilities in HxX, I would've chosen Knov's
i would've chosen Chrollo. then make a plan, then go hunt knov, then steal his ability
It’s free relestate
He gave up his lucious hair to stop the chimera.
Honestly I feel the only reason he wasn't part of the raid was cause he could insta kill everyone with 'scream' using God's accomplice
Kram Setnom Exactly! Togashi had to get rid of him somehow! Or it would be a plot hole on his part. He could literally get rid of their heads in one attack! But credit towards Togashi for realizing this and getting rid of him in an incredible way with his story telling!
@@Zoro-cp9bj You really believe those Royal guards and Meruem would be killed by that !!!!
i think the Royal guards wouldn't let alone Mereum,
just the moment knov use the ability they would suddenly see another dimension, they can evade or even blast everything around them killing meleoron and heavely injuring knov
i think reading and watching HXH so far we can be sure of one thing there is not a single ability that's OP or broken, everything comes down to, The user"s mastery of nen, his intelligence, and the Situation
Tensai Tensai with gods accomplice I don’t think they would see knovs scream attack. Although with melerons ability he has to have “trust” with that other person and it wasn’t developed with knov and meleron at the time.
Tensai Tensai Chimera Ants are vulnerable to damage to the head.
All Knov would have to do is use Scream on Meruem or any of the RG's heads and they would be killed instantly.
Combine that Meloreon's God's Accomplice and you have a tough to beat duo.
@Hans Hanzo lets take it one step at a time
1 knovs and meleoron uses gods accomplice
2 They go close to meruem he doesn't notice even if he uses EN
3 now Knov activates his ability Scream; So far mereum is setting 1 meter away from them still he doesn't notice
4 Meruem's head is inside Knovs portal
So now what do you think meruem is seeing and what do you think the Guards are seeing
IMO because no one see the attack but can feel the effects of the attack
The Guards see Meruem without a head , and meruem sees the other side of the portal
now do you think Knov can close the Portal before Meruem moves or blasts everything around him ?
knowing that Meruem pulled something like this
ruclips.net/video/k3UkIa-1Ck8/видео.html
what I like in HxH is that side characters gets to shine. It’s not like “I’m gonna send the most OP team and have them deal with it”
knov's power directly tells about his character.... he needs a safe space to hide and his another ability is scream. he is calculative and cares for other people lives that is why he is so scared to die and others too. he got a great "metal gear" moment. he looks like sakamoto and his hair turned to white like kaneki (i think it was based on a real life condition when humans gets so much stress). he will be relevant in the future arc because of his ability to transport objects and people. he is probably the most hated hunter in the story. he could have also killed Mereum with Meleoron's ability.
Why is he the most hated hunter in the story? Do you mean by fans, or in-universe? I didn't read much of the manga past where the 2011 anime ended, so I'm not aware of anything afterwards that involved Knov.
@@hansnase364 ppl think he's a pussy
how would he kill Meruem? The guy can just activate his Ren once he senses someone's coming and break Knov
john hiskings Not sure why. Knov's reaction is realistic.
@@0816M3RC yea but they compare knov to gon and Killua because they didn't freak out only because they weren't using enn
Knov is such an underrated character, I absolutely adore him
His ability is truly my favourite hxh abilities of a time. I mean i want that shit, which is also why it's so sad to see him being 'destroyed' when seeing more of his potential would be hella cool
i loved the way they portrayed the scene of knov breaking down, i feel the v.a. nailed the performance
Just IMAGINE if Chrollo was able to steal Knov's ability.
I really like Knov. Its so interesting to see someone break from a traumatic experience.
His move "Scream" could have killed Meruem!
Change my mind
Meleoron + Knov ultimate combo
there are other abilities that could have killed meruem, too.
// such as?
@@senyaclips knov's scream? shalnark's and illumi's abilities? chrollo's cloth? baise's ability? mizaistorm's ability? and etc.
I remember a lot of people including myself thought of this back in 2014, hence why he probably had to be written out of the infiltration arc lmao.
I'd like a breakdown of pariston
Popular guy. You're the second person on this video to ask for Pariston~
@@NewWorldReview please pariston
I love Knov! Wish he had more fight scenes, would love to see more of his fighting skills.
He was able to bring his eyeglasses inside ngl by putting it inside the dimensions..
What I like about Knov is his Hatsu.. being able to create a room dimension where he can escape anytime anywhere.. Exit or enter into a place where he created a portal. So cool!
The whole time Knov was getting closer and closer to the palace i was begging for him to stop. I kept saying, "dude that's close enough, they're going to kill you." So glad he survived.
knov one my favorite character from chimera ant arc、the other is knuckle and morel they so cool personality and soft inside！meleoron and knov coolest duo in hunter x hunter and maybe feitan and phinks
This is the nighteye we need
Lol, both shared the same VA in Japanese dub
Knov was the one hunter I really wanted to see in action the most, a shame what happened to him had so much potential
so ur telling me he isn’t mr wing i literally went through the entire series thinking that knov was gon and killuas teacher
😂😂😂😂😂
I don’t know why this made me laugh so hard
@@annabelpeter8163 i don’t wanna talk abt it
@@matthewjames1800 lool thats funny, wing was an enhancer XD
Dude aged 40 years in a day
Better off than Worfin- he aged a hundred years in a second.
i hated how they made him give up, a nen master so terrefied yet everyone else was totally okay about sensing that aura. he deserved more bravery
Infiltration scene was scarier than any horror movie today
When I saw someone as badass as knov get terrified when he felt pitous aura. Ooo it was wild.
It's Pufu's en that he felt !
I was infatuated with Knov. He is cool and good looking, his hair was so sleek that I even thought its a wig. Then he went bald and did fidgets like Palm like Student like teacher.
I loved Knov's mental breakdown in the anime
I can’t be the only one who wishes he fought alongside the extermination team after seeing the aura instead of just being the one who helps after Shoot and Morel can’t fight anymore. His style and everything was one of the best characters in the show
I love Knov-san. The first time he was shown I didn't particularly like him nor really cared for what he did. However during the infiltration of the palace I changed my mind. His power is very impressive and hella cool! I mean do you understand how much aura you need to put into making a 4 story pocket dimension? If Knuckle was to use APR on him, I don't know how long it would take him to bust. And what happened to him when he came in contact with Pouf-san's aura truly touched me. I can't believe he still had the courage to eventually go back to help the others. He truly is one of my favourite characters from the Chimera Ant arc.
I like to believe that everyone here is a intellectual person
Knov was supressing his aura hence lower protection and I don't think anyone can withstand aura like royal guards with only physical power
And there always the chance of getting caught hense instance death .
you are a little wrong on one fact: En is an application of Ren combine with Ten, so yes it was Ren and Knov could have die touching it, but he didn't touch it, he haven't been expose
His ability is one I'd like to have no doubt. So cool and useful.
The underrated char on HXH :) i like him and his nen ability
This might not be a character request, but could you do a video on The Dark Continent?
A other good vidoe dude keep it up plz makke a vidoe about chrolo lucifer plz
i’m definitely a touch late to this vid, but i LOVE how togashi wrote the infiltration scene. the high tension, little to no music, a fully experienced nen veteran still having to go through the panic of invading that hell hole, and the realistic mental struggles of dealing with the unknown with very little information whilst knowing the extremity of the danger
Knov has a key to backdoor of Shadow Realm xD
People forget that Knov was using Zetsu. So he was basically naked against Pouf's overwhelming evil aura.
Atomsk ThePirateKing he never touched it nor felt it he pussied out the situation
LostCrow1997 he literally witnessed pouf’s malicious aura. Pouf is a monster and psychopath who is 10 times stronger then knov, of course he’ll be scared.
Navier Richardson in comparison to what gon & killua ACTUALLY felt which was malicious killing intent ren at a close range(he’s a pussy) no one else in the series pussied out especially two 12 yrs old he doesn’t get a pass in my book
@@LostCrow1997 ok clown
@@LostCrow1997 Dude was also defenseless, if Gon and Killua were in Zetsu, sure maybe. He also completed his damn mission and gave the team a huge advantage
Omg the episode really was so intense. Knov is also way stronger than he seems. It was so sad that he had to face the vicious en of pouf.
i dunno why some of people on reddit called Knov a coward.
he completed the dangerous mission.
Knov must have stashed his eyeglasses into his pocket dimension upon entering the NGL border. He’s the perfect smuggler.
That scream hatsu's pretty OP if you ask me, the moment it touches anyone, it's game over
man this is a great channel i love your videos
Knov: *sneaks in his glasses to the NGL*
Netero: *Sneaks in a nuclear bomb*
I just watched Hunter x Hunter for the first time in my life, when I first saw Knov he immediately became one of my favorites maybe because he looks kinda like Arima from Tokyo Ghoul but when I saw his transformation caused by the trauma he had I was too broken and was the scene that touched me mostly, although I expected much more of him
Knov's ability is my favorite
I love your Hunter X Hunter 101 series! I'd love to see you give this treatment to My Hero Academia!
R Bry that anime’s ass
thank you for this! i like it
I think the writer decided to do this for a couple reasons. First it really pushed forth the concept of how sinister the royal ants are, and also Knovs power was broken. If you combine his power with meleureons, he could've easily taken out any of the royal guard or the king himself.
My favourite ability in all of Hunter hunter!!
He has more of support nen ability(still incredible) , and they send him to that mission, you can't blame him for losing hi mind lol
It was recently just confirmed by Togashi that Knov is an Emitter.
Which really throws a wrench in everything we thought about his ability. I still feel that Knov's ability can be performed by a Conjurer. Due to general relativity, every portal would technically be in physical contact with the Mansion at all times. And the Mansion would be in physical contact with Knov at all times. Thereby negating any need for Emission.
Exactly.
I also don't understand the shift from Conjurer to Emitter. Knov qualifies as conjurer not just on hatsu but also on Hisuka's personality type (high strung, serious and stoic). I guess opening and closing portals is an Emission ability but to conjure nen spaces requires Conjuration mastery on which an Emitter with 40% mastery of Conjuration would find it difficult to do.
@5:10 Knov's face... If you google knov memes you'll find that someone edited gollum's face (Lord of the Rings) onto knov's face
I think the hatred of Pouf for Komugi, because meruem ripped his his off, made his aura became that terrifying
I love his nen ability it's by far my favorite...I was kinda disappointed when they turned him into a scared bald dude. Dude was cool
Does he have a compartment especially for body parts in his pocket dimension where the severed part go when he kills someone with his power?
an interesting point to note is that he most likely smuggled his glasses into the NGL via his portals as well as morels pipe
Great video 😄
Cheers! :D
What's the name of the music that always play in your outro?
I was hoping more screen time on Knov
I'd love a feature on best spider Pakunoda.
I wonder why Knov isn’t going on the expedition to the Dark Continent? With his Nen ability, he could create instantaneous travel between the human world and the Dark Continent with just one full-length trip.
Nevermind I forgot about the last sentence before the fun facts. Shame he can’t set foot on the Continent tho
I wouldn’t mind having his power considering the housing problems where i live. Free living space, just no windows though
Great video
I would be that paranoid too when 3 royal guards and Mereum are the ones your trying to infiltrate
Yes knov did got scared and cried
But
Bruh, just look at him, his cool as fuck
And let's be honest He became a fan favourite in only 2 episodes
Can you make a video on all men abilities that can easily defeat Mereum and the Royal Guard?
Knov obviously used hide and seek to smuggle his glasses across the NGL border.
Grandline are you a fan of the manga Black Clover or the manwah Solo Leveling
imagine having not to worry on house rental 😅 he can just live inside his multi-level condominium
I've seen the comments around saying that I'm the infiltration Knov was either in Zetsu or In. I think I can confidently confirm it was Infact In.
The reason being zetsu prevents the user's aura from seeping out of their body, concealing them in a crowd and improving their body's healing.
In is also a means of stealth but in this case the user's nen is concealed from general senses without restricting men flow. Only by using gyo can it be countered.
Knov himself stated as he was breaking down from the encounter that "One look is all it took,.to break my will" and right after he acknowledged that Gon and Killua must had been even closer to the royal guards (Pitous) aura, even touching it (which they did!).
So when Knov encountered Pouf's aura at the stairs I'd say he's actually only seeing it, and that alone was enough to make him beeline. If he used zetsu we'd have to explain how he can use nen at the same time (yI think that's ko). Apparently zetsu also prevents the user from seeing nen around them.
Bottom line is nen's complicated.
Man the rent money I would save with this nen ability. It's either this or kamui or the door door fruit from one piece, bluno had a sweet hall way lmaooo. Hell, I'll even live in the dangai hallway from bleach. As long it's free and I can teleport 😂😤
I really hate that people call knov a pussy. He stated clearly he wasn't afraid of death he was so afraid of what would happen had they decided not to kill him and instead had "fun" with him.
I actually really liked knov and was upset that this is the way he had to go down he was super smart and had a tuff nen ability.
I always thought knov was more worried about losing palm’s amazing hatsu than he ever was about her.
Can you do a Palm Siberia explained? I feel like she is highly underrated
One of the best animes
Can you do Morel and his nen ability?
Reminds me of night eye from MHA
If he had control on time as well, it would be perfect. Then the chimera ant extermination group palace invasion, would last even longer and the narrator wouldve said `1 second has passed` after 40 episodes
I'd like to know if Knovs ability has a range. Imagine a direct portal to the dark continent once he sets it down :-) that is if he manages to get up the courage to do it.
Sidethought: would a greed island console be a quick way back once you found something on the dark continent?
When I saw knov first I thought he was wing cause his glasses looked like wings’s glasses
I wonder what temperature his rooms are and if I can install plumbing and wifi. All I need.
Correct me if im wront but isnt conjuror can only conjure item? In this case isn’t knov create a dimension? Shouldnt he be specialist instead ?
Knov's Hatsu is one of the most versatile and useful in the series, and one I want above all others shown thus far
Why did I think he was Nighteye from Hero academia at first? Loool
4:28 OOOS
Sir Nighteye
