And this is the last arc covered by the anime done in an OVA.

Gon, Killua, and Leorio return to help Kurapika at the end of the third story arc, after which Leorio and Kurapika leave again, returning the focus to Gon and Killua. The fifth story arc concerns Gon and Killua's adventures on Greed Island, the seemingly-magical video game that sucks its players physical bodies into its own world. It is later revealed that the game is actually set on an island in the real world (the physical game set is actually just a teleporting device), created and ran by a group of powerful Nen users who are led by none other than Gon's own father Ging. The Greed Island story arc is very video-game-like. The game Greed Island runs on a complex card-based gaming system. The goal of the game is to collect a number of set cards, although almost everything in the game, from food to money, can be turned into cards. There are cards capable of doing anything, from making people pregnant regardless of gender, granting wishes, and magic spell cards that can warp you to specific towns. Inside Greed Island Gon and Killua are joined by Biscuit Krueger (nicknamed "Bisuke"), a 57-year-old woman who looks like a 12-year-old girl, and is a master and experienced teacher of Nen. She continues the Nen training Wing gave to Gon and Killua during the Heavens Tower arc.
Also during this arc, Killua's little brother, Kalluto, joins the Phantom Troupe; replacing Hisoka as member number 4. (See Miscellany section of this article for details regarding Kalluto's gender)

whee as a hisoka crazied fan, I must say that was my favorite arc among the whole series. The best part of it would be Killua's yo yo fight and the dodgeball game. Of course, when they recruited Hisoka was even better XD

It was interesting indeed.

i haven't seen this arc yet... but everything i hear makes me want to more and more. ^^ i heard though that Bisuke actually tries her hardest to break up Gon and Killua's friendship... and when she realizes she can't... that's when she agrees to teach them.

Yeah, that was her original plan. But she didn't give up and start teaching them because she wasn't able to break up their friendship. She got ticked off at their lack of experience and finally couldn't take it anymore. xD

oh... really... I heard it was okay to put up the things... the anime and stuff as long as it wasn't licensed here in America.

It was. But then people started getting picky, I guess. They probably think it's better to keep their tracks covered. I can upload the episodes onto Yousendit or Megaupload if you want, and then send you the links.

As for my thoughts on Greed Island, well, I like it. The whole card system was pretty interesting. Some things could have been done better, but what can you do?

Oh, and I can officially say that List has forever captured my heart. He's so pretty... heart sigh heart

List is a minor character that appears in the last episode of GI Final. I won't say more than that, because it would be a major spoiler, and spoilers are no fun. I will ive you a pic though, cuz that won't spoil anything.
