Hunter x Hunter Episode 70: Guts x and x Courage

Season 2· aired 2013-03-10· canon

Gon is unable to hold onto Razor's throw and is sent to the outfield. He uses Back to return, but Hisoka is also injured and the situation looks grim. However, Gon has an idea for defeating Razor, but he needs Killua's help to pull it off.

Full recap

The match against Razor reaches its most dangerous stage, with Gon’s team battered, outnumbered, and scrambling for a way to keep the ball in play. By the end of the episode, Gon, Killua, and Hisoka have formed a last-ditch plan centered on Gon’s trust in Killua’s strength and timing, setting up a decisive counterattack.

The episode begins in the middle of the dodgeball game on Greed Island, where Razor’s throwing power continues to overwhelm Gon's side. Razor launches a brutal throw that sends Gon out of bounds, and because the ceiling counts as an extension of the floor, Gon is considered out of the game when he leaves the main area. Gon uses **Back** to return, but the situation remains grim because Hisoka is also injured and the team is under heavy pressure.

Razor keeps pressing the advantage with powerful, deceptive throws. At one point, Goreinu tries to strike back by switching places with his black ape to hit Razor directly, but Razor’s devil catches the ball before it lands and quickly retaliates, knocking Goreinu unconscious. Razor then sends another difficult throw that curves toward Killua before changing direction toward Biscuit and Hisoka, forcing both to dodge. One of Razor’s devils appears near Hisoka, catches the ball, and sends it back at him, and Hisoka manages to block it with **Bungee Gum**, though he is still injured by the impact.

The tension rises as both teams struggle to control the ball. While Razor waits for the ball to come down, Hisoka uses **Bungee Gum** to seize it and send Razor out, forcing Razor to use **Back** to stay in the game. Biscuit then helps by eliminating the last devil on Razor’s side, which simplifies the field but leaves the fight still centered on Razor himself.

After this, Gon realizes that brute force alone will not be enough. He comes up with a plan that requires Killua to hold the ball steady while he powers up a decisive throw. Killua agrees despite his badly damaged hands, showing how much trust Gon has in him and how determined Killua is to help. The episode ends with that plan in motion, as the team prepares for Gon’s counterattack against Razor.
