This episode is packed with Nen lore and principles. You’ll get lost watching casually. Hisoka’s scene gives your brain a break from all the Nen info. After that, it’s back to Nen class. If you don’t get Nen now, future episodes will be tough to follow.

A good episode that keeps building on Nen training while showing more pressure on Gon Freecss and Killua Zoldyck. The fights feel more intense and make their growth more satisfying to watch

This was a great episode. Hisoka still gives me the creeps, lol, but I love how Nen was introduced. It was handled in such an interesting way that it really makes you want to keep watching.

Things are getting more interesting. Watching the two MCs discover a much bigger world beyond what they once knew is amazing, and the way it’s delivered makes everything feel engaging and natural.

Honestly, the way Nen was introduced was very intriguing. It gives you that feeling of wanting to learn more—you just can’t take your eyes off the show.

The early explanation of Nen is important to understand and luckily it was explained and easy to follow here. Please watch if you want to understand how nen really works in the world of HxH.

In Episode 28, the four exercises of Nen are explained so clearly, it’s easy to follow. Plus, seeing how Hisoka doesn’t let them pass really shows the power gap and how strong people at that arena level are. I just wish his aura felt even more intense.

EPISODE CONTEXT

Arriving at Heavens Arena in the preceding episodes, Gon and Killua now formally begin Nen training with Wing — the single most important power system introduction in the entire series. This episode cements the foundation that every future arc relies on, transitioning the show from pure adventure into its strategic combat identity. It directly sets up their push toward the 200th floor, where mastering these fundamentals becomes a matter of survival.
