I hope it will be a good day today.

It's the simple things in life

That are the easiest to lose sight of

Tell me "good morning"
mata yume wo misete
Once more show me the dream

Keep on living just the way you are
Hoist the sails!
What are they trying to do?
All right. Here we go!
Right!
Go!
Hold on to me!
Y-Yeah!
Mister, are you all right?
Don't call me "mister"! I'm Mr. Leorio!
Looks like I won't have to worry about being bored
until I reach Dolle this year.
Good bye... Whale Island.
Seasick in these calm waters.
A big guy like that. So pathetic!
Happens every time.
By the time we reach Dolle Island, he'll be skin and bones
with nothing left in his stomach to throw up.
I wonder how many will make it this time.
As I take a look around, the one with backbone is...
Hey, come and get it!
Hey, look up there! Something's about to start!
Why you!
Get 'em!
I'll bet five silver coins on the smaller guy.
All right! I'm in for ten!
Damn you.
Oh, that's something.
That's enough, Katzo.
Get off.
Get off this ship.
W-What did you say?
W-What? Hey! Let go!
Do it.
One, two!
You are on my ship and you will all obey my rules!
If I don't like you, I'll throw you overboard!
Keep that in mind!
Humph. We're paying customers.
Got a bite!
Gotcha!
Hey, son. You caught a big one.
Not only that, a flying bonito is very special and rare catch.
Yup. I don't see it much on Whale Island.
The wind has died down. Not even a light breeze.
I wonder how long it will take to reach Dolle Island.
It's coming. A storm is coming.
Hmm?
Stop joking.
The sea's totally flat.
The air is getting moist.
And it's salty.
The sea cranes are warning each other.
Sea cranes?
Are you saying that you understand the birds?
Yup. But not completely.
Are you pulling my leg?
Son...
You got on at Whale Island, right?
Yup.
What does your father do?
He's a Hunter.
I only know him from photos.
But I respect him.
I see...
So, your father is also a Hunter...
Son...
What is it?
What is the size of the storm, and when does it come?
Sea cranes are saying it is really big.
Considering the speed of this ship...
In two hours.
I've been in this business a long time,
but you're only the second person who guessed it right.
I'm the second?
Guys! Lower the sails!
Get a move on!
Move!
Hey, watch it!
Well, sorry. My hand slipped.
I doubt it!
It's ten years too soon for you to test me with this thing!
I guess there are some prospective applicants this year.
- Look! - What's that?
St. Elmo's fire.
St. Elmo's fire?
It's a weather phenomenon caused by
the spontaneous discharge of static electricity
from thunderclouds or electrified clouds towards objects below.
Oh.
Finally, you spoke up.
I guess I should thank you for the scholarly explanation.
Among sailors, we have a saying that
if you see St. Elmo's fire, you won't go home alive.
That sounds cool.
It's coming, a huge storm...
Seems I'll get to meet some prospective applicants
who have all the makings to become a Hunter.
This is terrible!
Mommy!
Oh, wind, blow harder on the stormy seas~
Captain, we're taking in water below!
Damn!
Stuff the leaks with those useless asses lying around!
Aye ay, sir.
Hard to port!
Here we go!
Shameful!
And you all intend to take the Hunter's Exam?
What a laugh!
Here. Have some water.
And chew on this grass. It's soothing.
I guess it's the three of them.
A whale offshore is calling me~
You want to know my name?!
That's right.
I'm Gon.
I'm Kurapika.
I.. I am Leorio!
Gon, Kurapika and Leorio...
And? Why do you want to be Hunters?
Don't question us like that! You're not even an interviewer.
Just answer it.
What did you say?!
It's what my father does! So I want to see what it's like.
Hey, wait your turn. I'm still talking to this old man.
What's the big deal? Just telling him the reason.
I don't want to!
I will never tell you!
Look!
I never do anything I don't want, even if it means fighting.
I agree with you, Leorio.
Hey... How old are you?
Don't act like you know me!
It's easy to avert an unwanted question
by making up a believable story.
However, I consider making a false statement
is a most shameful action akin to greed.
Call me "Mr. Leorio"!
However, my reason for applying is too personal
to tell someone I just met.
Therefore, I can't answer your question at this moment.
Call me Mr. Leorio.
Mr. Leorio!
Get off my ship immediately if you can't answer my question.
You still don't get it?
The Hunter Exam has already begun.
It started the moment you got on this ship.
That's from the Hunter Association...!
As you may know,
there are hoards of people who want to get the Hunter License...
However, proctors have no time to examine all of those people.
Therefore, someone like me is hired to screen the applicants.
The ones who have been thrown off the ship
and the ones lying around here
are reported to the committee and disqualified.
Even if they go to the Exam Hall, they will be turned away.
It means that whether you can take the Exam or not
depends solely on me.
You'd better answer my question very carefully.
Geez... I have no choice then.
I guess I have to answer.
The reason I want to be a Hunter is...
I am the only survivor of the Kurta Clan.
Hey, I'm trying to talk!
I want to be a "Blacklist Hunter"
to capture convicts who have bounties on their heads.
The reason for that?
Four years ago, all of my brethren were massacred
by a gang of thieves, "the Phantom Troupe"!
I am determined to capture them. For that reason...
You want to be a Hunter?
All members of the Phantom Troupe are on the most wanted list.
Even the most experienced Hunter hesitates.
You may end up dying in vain.
I'm not afraid of dying.
The worst fear I have is that my anger will fade away.
I see.
Don't give me that important crap!
If you want revenge, you don't have to be a Hunter.
That is one of the most foolish comments I've ever heard.
There are places and information that only Hunters are allowed access to
and actions you are allowed to take only as a Hunter, Leorio.
I told you to call me Mr. Leorio!
Well then, what is your motive, Mr. Leorio?
Mine?
I won't answer your question just to impress you. So, I'll tell you honestly.
Money!
I will be a Hunter, and I'll make lots of money!
If I have money, I can get anything!
A huge mansion!
A great car. Expensive liquor, even women!
You can't buy class, Leorio.
This is the third time.
Let's go outside.
I guess the dirty Kurta Clan's man doesn't know about courtesy.
Take back your words, Leorio.
Remember, it's "Mr. Leorio."
Come!
With pleasure.
H-Hey, wait!
I'm not through with you yet.
Hey! Wait.
Leave them alone.
"If you want to know someone, know what makes them angry."
I like those words that Aunt Mito taught me.
It seems to me that the reason for their anger is very important.
You'd better not stop them.
What?! A crack in the main mast?
Aye... it should be taken care of right away, or else...
If you take back your words, I will forgive you, Leorio.
You do it first, Kurapika.
I have no intention of yielding.
Here I go!
You are quite good.
As are you!
Katzo, be careful!
Katzo!
Th-Thank you... you saved my life.
All right, pull it.
Gon!
That was so reckless!
Very reckless, indeed.
If we didn't grab you, you'd have been a goner too!
But you caught me, didn't you?
By the way, what happened to the duel?
Duel?
Ah, right. We were doing that.
Let me apologize for my rude action.
I'm sorry, Mr. Leorio.
Hey, don't be so square. You can call me Leorio, Kurapika.
Let me apologize, too.
I take back everything I said to you about your people.
The three of you have passed the trial!
Are you serious?
Yeah, I'll take you to Dolle Island.
Yippee! But can this scrap make it without sinking?
Trust me!
Hurrah! It's Dolle Island!
But how do we get to the Exam Hall?
Bus? What's a bus?
Next time on Hunter x Hunter:
Decision x Shortcut x Detour!
lt'll be fun!
Did you hear it?
kiitanone
The voices of the wind sighing across the land
daichi wo soyogu kaze no koe

What lies beyond the clouds that drift by?

You saw the future out there over the forest

Don't look back the promised home

Turn your overflowing emotions into strength

The sound of your footsteps running up and down

I'll search for them in the wind, on my own
