What Is A Chimera Ant? - Hunter x Hunter ep. 76-78: Media Club Plus S01E24
Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. Austin joins us for this episode where, at the same time as we learn what a Chimera Ant is, we learn about how devistating they can be if left unchecked. After meeting up with Kite, Gon and Killua are working with him and his team to track down the location of a new, potentially very dangerous, Chimera Ant Queen. Unfortunately she's taken up residence in a politically and geographically isolated island: the perfect breeding ground for the ants to grow and spread. Oh yeah, and they talk.

Biscuit Krueger, Nen Master - Hunter x Hunter ep. 63-65: Media Club Plus S01E20
Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. The magical girl we met turned out to be really mean, but it's OK(?) because she's really strong and she knows Netero and Gon's dad. It turns out the boys reaaally didn't know anything about nen, and they're getting a crash course (literally). And it's a good thing too because there's a guy called the Bomber who we heard about last time, except now he's killed a few dozen players. Remember everyone we met entering the game for the first time? They're all dead, pretty much, except this one nen exorcist guy. Also Killua leaves the game to try again at the Hunter Exam. I wonder how he'll do. As always we are brought to you by Friends at the Table. This season, we're watching 2011's Hunter x Hunter, based on the manga by Yoshihiro Togashi. In this episode we cover episodes 63-65, titled A x Hard x Master, Strengthen x and x Threaten, and Evil Fist x and x Rock Paper Scissors.
