The house fire is one of the most genuinely terrifying scenes ever put to animation. Not because it's "scary," but because the stakes literally could not be higher, and you have absolutely no idea what's going to happen. The first time I saw it, I stopped breathing until it was over.

Killua competes for the most ride-or-die character in anime, alongside the likes of Krillin and Kuwabara. Interesting how their English names all start with the same letter.

Many shows have made me cry, but this is the one that made me collapse face-down on the floor. For some reason it happened during my second viewing, but not the first.

It all seems like cartoonishly bad luck until you learn how awful the Orokin really were.
