By the time the big gold statue came out I was past the point of caring and wanted the fight to be over before it began. I was expecting more from it since there was the aggravating amount of times Netero's arms went blurry as if he was going to do some badass stuff but nothing really happened. And then there's Netero's fight with Meruem which is basically a giant gold statue making a bunch of gestures. Kite's death isn't shown, which is stupid. There are other complaints I have, though the last I'll mention are the anticlimactic battles. I couldn't believe how many times I was getting spoon-fed characters' emotional states and plot developments. I think it single-handedly turned this arc from being possibly one of the best in anime to just so-so. Holy hell, the narration was the worst part about the arc. Most of them I didn't care about for a majority of the arc. Another thing that is pretty bad about the arc are the side characters. But, again, it takes forever to get anywhere. I can see why this arc is considered the best of Hunter x Hunter since Meruem's development is one of the best of any antagonist. It wasn't until Meruem met Komugi that I found interest in the new antagonists, and it wasn't until the last two episodes that I found the viewing experience rewarding. No amount of payoff could warrant its length. It also takes forever to get through and I got Fairy Tail vibes from the egregious time spent on certain things. It has a very slow start after the GI arc.
