Synopsis
Kurapika reveals his power's cost; a cryptic message forces Gon and friends to rethink their path.
After reuniting with Gon and his friends, Kurapika opens up about the dangerous burden his abilities place upon him. As the group ponders their next steps in the wake of recent events, a mysterious message arrives that upends everything they thought they knew. Faced with an unexpected turn of events, Gon, Kurapika, and their companions must make a difficult decision about how to proceed in their ongoing quest. Based on the manga by Togashi Yoshihiro.
After reuniting with Gon and his friends, Kurapika explained to them the risks he bears because of his abilities. Believing that his target of revenge is no longer alive and the search for his fallen comrade's eyes could truly begin, Kurapika soon after receives a message informing him that all the Spiders still lived. After much discussion between his friends, Gon, Kurapika and company decided to hunt after the one Spider member who's ability could ultimately result in Kurapika's defeat and death. Based on the manga by Togashi Yoshihiro.
