Yeah it's so depressing meruem the perfect hero died of poison oh my god I'm crying so bad😭 f*** that piece of sh** netero who tried to protect humanity with his life !!!!!!!! He's the one who killed innocent people continuously and used them as food stocks really this netero guy should be in hell. He even killed a father and a mother of a child in front of his eyes and then immediately after taking the life of that child 🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿 you're all sick in the head.
Something I wanna point out is the fact that Meruem ended up becoming blind like her and needed Komugi's constant reassurance, a nice reversal of their initial situation. And then, wanting to be held, he lets Komugi touch him, something he hadn't done before besides the very tip of his stinger and his hand when he was worried after he killed the bird attacking her. For all Komugi would have known, Meruem could have been human, but upon holding him in their last moments, she would've known he wasn't, but she still held him and accepted him. The line between Monster and Human truly has blurred by the relationship between a Monster and a Human.
It’s such a tender moment, suspended in time. Knowing that they are at the end, all masks come off and the honesty hits so hard. “Hold my hand” ,”call me by my name”. That’s all we ever really want, companionship, comfort, someone to hold because the world is scary, and everyone is scared and confused. At the end of his short life, when he was the most wise and humble, somewhere between king and beggar, he got to die the way we all would want to. Feeling loved
What makes this so much worse for me is just remembering how old Meruem is. He came to this conclusion about his life having experienced so little of the world. He's literally days old, He's like an actual baby. His whole life, he's being told what his purpose is and what he's meant to do instead of choosing for himself. And once he learns what love is or what gives his life meaning for him, it's all taken away from him.
Except his development, both mind and body were growing at an astronomically quick pace. I think maybe he was using his nen all along at an absurd rate, like how Gon upgraded his body, but Meruem didn’t know the technicality of it, and his body’s instinct to desire for power as “king” used nen. I personally believe that even if it weren’t for netero & the poison, he would die early. He was meant to only live for a short time.
What I haven't seen any reactor talk about this scene is Meruem's increasing vulnerability. He once had En greater than anyone in the world. He made Nen lights to light up the room they're in. And when his life began to fade, so did his nen lights and his vision. But the ultimate show of vulnerability was him constantly asking Komugi if she's still there beside him, not wanting to be alone. Edit: Wow, over 250 likes. Thanks guys.
Also the development of him constantly asking Komugi if she’s still there which is a drastic change from when nothing enraged him more than having to repeat himself. HxH is a masterpiece.
I forgot how hard this point of the arc hits emotionally. And everytime I watch this arc something new is revealed to me that I didn't appreciate before
Very hard to find one, Darling in the Franxx and Tengen Toppa, especially Tengen Toppa made me cried too back then. Very hard to find anime that has this feeling when it's also has action in it.
After I finished this show I got so depressed thinking "this is as good as it gets. I'll never find a better anime than this". There are other good anime's that I've found now, but this one is a different kind of special
been saying this for years, we need a theraphy group or something. There is still amazing art out there, but nothing gets even closer to HxH. Berserk it's beautiful but hopeless, vagabond and vidland saga are a beautiful journey too. But HxH its something else.
i feel what makes this scene even more sad is that at the end of hxh komugi and mereum dead bodies are holding hands with their chips by them. but there really is no other anime like hxh its like how there's no other anime that can come close to ouran host club even though they've been around for a very long time now
Huge props to the producers. The symbolism, pacing, lighting, scene orientation, it couldn't have been done any better. Especially using a still frame and unique art for that last shot, christ it hurts so much. Thank you for uploading the HQ reaction as always :)
Even after all these years this scene still gets to me I have read and watched numerous shounen manga and anime but this is the only one to actually make my eyes water.. crazy.
Why this scene always made me tear up a ton even I already watched it hundreds of times. I watched several tear jerking scenes in animes but this scene hits me the hardest. Second one was Reina reuniting with her Mom. The other anime that made me tear up was Grave of the Fireflies. I think it's because of the message.
You know this trash ant with his hack engine was killing people for fun and used them as food stocks he even killed a father and a mother in front of their child and then killed him immediately after 🗿🗿🗿🗿
speechless, no one anime like this arc and that scene, that drawing became immortal for the future generations, really thank you Togashi-sama, please be safe with your health to complete your masterpiece of all time
It's rare when I stay frozen speechless in front of the screen after consuming a piece of media, In this arc alone it happened three times and each time surpassed the other, I always remember this scene of Komugi holding Meruem with fondness and regret thinking about what could have been, witnessing their final moments felt like an honor.
HxH really is one in a million. Meruem was born to be a monster, culling and consuming humans so he could stand on top of the food chain; in meeting Komugi, he found and accepted 'humanity', gaining feelings for another person who, outside of playing Gungi, doesn't GIVE him anything tangible, yet despite that, she becomes to the most important thing in the world to him. Gon started his journey, and spent most of it, as a boy who always did, or tried to do, what was right, helping anyone he could and never helping himself at another expense; then, after losing Kite, he changed, too. His spirit became hardened, and his sole focus, which started as simply rescuing Kite, turns into obliterating Pitou for what they did to Kite, even going so far as to almost risk Komugi by attack Pitou mid surgery. The biggest monster in the world became, emotionally, human, while a boy who seems to have all the good in the world inside of him forced himself to turn into a monster of destruction. Also, this scene will never, ever, let my eyes stay dry. I can keep the 'bad' crying in for most of it, but the second it Komugi says goodnight and that she'll be with him soon, I bawl.
Its been nearly a decade since the first time I saw this. Ive seen the whole show 14 tines and because of reactions and clips Ive seen this episode and the last scenes at least 50 times, and it STILL messes me off half the time I see it
Yeah you guess it, I watch every single channel who does a reaction/reaction mashup of Chimera Ant Arc as a training to not cry at this scene. Uh? I lost again? H-how would you know that? I have watched it hundreds of times, surely I'm stone cold by this point. Why would I still be crying at this jajaja 😭
man, i just watched it again ,i watched it many many times , and i will finally say that chimera ant arc is the greatest arc in all animes, the brilliant writing and the unpredictability of it, togashi the great please finish HxH,,, im a grown ass man and im not ashame that eveytime i watch this,i cry a lot
this short love story from an anime that isnt remotely about love was somehow still more touching and heartwarming yet heartbreaking than half of those romance animes . they need to take notes from hxh author fr
I remember seeing some people argue whether their relationship was just friendship or romantic, and I disagree with both because you really can't put a label on them. What they have is simple, but really deep and profound, the raw sense of pure companionship that I think is found in soulmates. (I don't know what I'm yapping about anymore but they make me so emotional even after almost a decade. God...😭)
You are witnessing here the peak not only of shonen or anime in general, but fiction. This is writing at its best. The poor health state of Togashi, and the death of Kentaro Miura Miura (author of Berserk) is two of the worst things to ever happen in art and literature history.
I watched this when I was in middle school and didn't really understand what's going on. Today I just realised that Meruem felt Komugi happiness, which he never have such kind of feeling before. Truly the best story of all anime.
Am i allowed to be so happy? Can many wonderful things happen to someone like me? Knowing her story and the emotion of how she said it and you kinda reflect it to your life also. How she accepted her fate.
Best arc of all time. Humans turning into monsters and monsters becoming more human.
Is see this comment in like every hxh reaction for this arc and I think to myself that it’s true every time
I mean it's great but I also think that it's too long
@@justsomeguy2718yeahhh good thing one piece isn't a thing right
Best way to put it
@kkuwana it really is tho, unless you grew up watching OP. As a new anime fan, I heard great things about OP but it's just too long
It's been close to a decade, but I still cry everytime I see this scene.
didnt this come out in 2011? It's already been more than a decade, time really flies lmao
@@Dell-ol6hb hxh started on 2011 but chimera arc was around 2013 if im not mistaken
The first ep started in late 2011, and was mostly a weekly release. This ep was then released in june 2014.
Yeah it's so depressing meruem the perfect hero died of poison oh my god I'm crying so bad😭 f*** that piece of sh** netero who tried to protect humanity with his life !!!!!!!!

The last music played during their last moment is called "Understanding" because of the reason you said 😭 HxH will always be Masterpiece

Dude. You're making me cry. So well put
Meruem lived his last moments as a human. What a beautiful story.
The ants became more human, and the humans became more like monsters.

@@SOA_yt it was probably less nen usage and more the physiology of chimera ants
He’s not human bro, his mind develops 100x faster, his maturity was probably at a young adults level
@@kababmichips1767 Yeah, some animals are basically almost adult when they are born

No because he got blinded from the poison
@@_Cfocus That's part of what I said. He lost his vision as his powers began to fade.
When in the beginning, he killed people left and right. So poetic.
Also the development of him constantly asking Komugi if she’s still there which is a drastic change from when nothing enraged him more than having to repeat himself. HxH is a masterpiece.
😢😢😢
I forgot how hard this point of the arc hits emotionally. And everytime I watch this arc something new is revealed to me that I didn't appreciate before
Meruem's final moments and Meruem and Komugi's ending are so beautiful. I have yet to see another show that could top this. It's something else.
Sameeee!!!
clannad made me cry way more, idk if you saw that anime yet
Very hard to find one, Darling in the Franxx and Tengen Toppa, especially Tengen Toppa made me cried too back then. Very hard to find anime that has this feeling when it's also has action in it.

If you didn’t cry once during this episode I want to know what kind of superpower you have
If you didn't cry I think you're a psychopath 😂
I didn't
I didn’t cry its just that someone was cutting onions 😅
I didn't cry because I don't want to
Still sad af though
It was sad, but I didn't cry until the next episode with Reina reuniting with her mom.
Huge props to the producers. The symbolism, pacing, lighting, scene orientation, it couldn't have been done any better. Especially using a still frame and unique art for that last shot, christ it hurts so much. Thank you for uploading the HQ reaction as always :)
I'm surprised no one said anything when Komugi was touching Meruem's face, "seeing" him for the first time. And how it didn't change anything🙂
Or how he was using “en” to see her after he went blind
😮😮😮
thx god he have a human face otherwise...
ohmygod
dead ant 🔥🔥🔥🍷
I have never read or watched an arc that ended better or more impactful than this.

Same here lol hahaha watched it more than 10 times from full episodes to reaction and it still gets me every time
Me sucede lo mismo, es algo tan vez inexplicable pero me hace derramar lágrimas esta escena tan bella

This part of the episode always brings the waterworks. Kamugi was meant to meet Meruem.
That last, "fuck", from the bottom left reactor is really how I feel, the ending is too sad.
My heart is constricting every time Meruem asks "Komugi, are you there?" 😭
最後の軍儀のシーン何度見ても泣ける
途中から駒を置く音が無くなったり、目の前にいるはずなのに何度も「コムギ...いるか...？」と確認するのはもう目が見えなくなり、手も動かせなくなってるからなんだよね

そいや、人が死ぬ時は聴覚が1番最後まで残るんでしたっけ
This is why HxH is the GOAT, making grown men cry with the death of the villain

I keep trying not to cry and i still can't hold it😭
11:55 DUDE I WAS SO CLOSE TO TEARING UP AND THEN BRO JUST SAID THAT
omg cant believe i cry again jesus, thanks for the uploads!
Choked up every single time. I don't understand how you cannot cry watching this
I`m glad people actually appreciate Meruem`s perfect character.
Easily one of the best villain in all fiction.
Yup@@louayker4249
the contrast between Gon and Meruem in the beginning of the arc and now...
Gon become the monster while Meruem become human
Thanks for this anime Togashi, you'rea genius. Best arc of all time
Best ending to a character

I binged HxH only recently and my god this scene broke me. I was ugly crying 😭
How I wish I could forget this arc just to watch it again

That last "FUCK..." before the video ends is just perfect.

This had me in pieces to this day nothing will ever top this anime nothing even comes close to Hxh
I cried so much for pitou meruem .... Sister and brother dead in human. Pufu was the real antagonist of this arc
I swear.. its near impossible not to tear up when watching this scene..

when i first watched this ep i cried so bad like this was really sad and beautiful
komugi at the start of the arc: gross looking girl
komugi at the end of the arc: gorgeous
My favorite moment in anime. Legitimately
I watched this when I was in middle school and didn't really understand what's going on. Today I just realised that Meruem felt Komugi happiness, which he never have such kind of feeling before. Truly the best story of all anime.
Protect Togashi at all cost!
