Hunter x Hunter

I am very happy that they are redoing this. Great series the first time around and will be awesome to see it in better quality. I really wish they didn't take out so much of the storyline but the fans will know and those that don't wont really be lost.

The lack of interest surrounding Hunter X Hunter is somewhat enigmatic to me. It is a title that, by all rights, should have a huge buzz behind it. Not only is Hunter X Hunter the work of Yoshihiro Togashi, the creator of Yu Yu Hakusho, but it is also far superior to other currently running big-hype titles, the most prominent of which is Naruto. It manages to be enormously entertaining through its unique concoction of animation, characterization, and plot, without resorting to the cliches that have all too often ruined a seemingly novel show of a similar vein. And yet Hunter X Hunter remains little known.

I was reluctant to watch this anime, but I should'nt have been this has become one of my favorite! The story is fantastic with a great flow it makes you want to keep watching. Do yourself a favor and dont miss this!

Hunter X Hunter is the story of a boy called Gon who wishes to find his father. Finding out that his father passed the notoriously difficult Hunter exam at a young age, Gon takes the Hunter exam in an attempt to follow in his father's footsteps and find out where his father is. Along the way Gon makes friends and rivals.

The story is a fairly simple one, an adventure with a fights and puzzles thrown in. However, the writers keep the pace going at a good rate so that the story is always running at a good rate, which is especially useful for people watching who just want the anime to get to the bits of the manga that have never been animated, but doesn't in any way leave the show feeling rushed.

Gon is a pure hearted boy with a lot of potential and his charisma quickly wins him the trust of fellow hunter examines Leorio and Kurapika. Leorio is hot headed, finding it hard to keep quiet when he sees an injustice, while Kurapika is calm and collected; the brains of the trio. While Leorio at first seem opposites, working well as foils for one another, they both share an iron sense of morality.

As the story progresses, Killua, a young boy from a family of assassins is introduced. Killua is different from the other three in that he sees the Hunter exam as something to pass the time, already having a lot of experience in combat.

The music and the animation a pretty standard, and aren't really anything to write home about, they just do their job.

The story is far from over at this point but it doesn't look like it will be lagging. Hopefully the anime will continue to run for many years.

They have skipped over some of the unnecessary long parts that the old one had and also rearranged some of the scenes in the story line. But the artwork is better and I like the changes they made. I can't wait till they start the episodes that come after the ending of the first anime.

Though I know there are details in the previous version that are special and I really like, I am very glad that the new version keeps the characters' shape. (In some scenes of the older version, some characters looked like they temporarily morphed their faces.) Kurapika's eyes got an upgrade (I literally went "WOAH" when I saw them), the action s amazing, and Gon's hair is closer to what his hair is like in the manga. (Taller.)

The music gets into my head and sticks. It'll take a very long time for me to start hating them. It's just as good as the music in the earlier version, though I kinda wish that the ending had a little less of the screeching voices. That threw me off.

I love the pacing of the story in this version. I was very annoyed at the earlier version when it took four slow episodes just to just get to the Kiriko's house! But there are a couple fillers that I wish were in the newer version, such as the phase where the applicants are dropped off on an island that has the shipwreck graveyard and that old couple. (Not that I wanna see my favorite characters nearly die from drowning or bonks on the head.... What?)

The voice acting is nice. At first I had thought that the original seiyuu came back until I noticed Gon sounded a bit off, Leorio was a tad deeper, and Kurapika sounded a bit breathless (and after watchng High School of the Dead, I thought the voice sounded familiar). It actually took me a couple episodes to figure this out. (Around the time I heard Hisoka and thought I was hearing Fai from Tsubasa Chronicle.) The new voices are easy to get used to, unlike the English dub of the earlier version. (In which Gon and Killua's voice actors didn't fit, Leorio's sounded not-funny and a little more like he's smitten towards Kurapika, and their pronunciation of a lot of names made my lower eyelid twitch repeatedly. Gon's name is pronounced as 'gone' with a British accent, not 'geoun'! Listen to the way the original seiyuu say it!)

I liked the fact that in the first episode, Gon double-checked his suspicions about the storm. I didn't like this version's Catzo because it makes him look like a total klutz and that he falls over on way too many things. In the older version, however, Catzo was testing some of the would-be applicants and was very skilled, dependable, and trusted. When HE got thrown overboard, it shows that the storm is very dangerous.
I would get into detail of the other characters, but I didn't pay too much attention.

I don't know why I love this series, but I just do. There's something about the logic and storyline behind this story that makes me enjoy it so much. Usually I don't like these types of series but this is just great!

really glad they're making a new one though i felt like the killua in the older version was much better and same with gon, he used to be diffrerent in the old version. in the new one, he seems alot wierder!! other than that im happy

So far so good. I heard good things about the manga so I decided to check out the anime. It seems a tad bit childish like fairy tail, but the story-line is great so far.

It is going to be hard to like a child protagonist for me, but he is slowly warming up to me

I love this series and i am happy because its back on again and i hop it will be on this website ,it's a unique story and it has exciting adventures . Plz put it on this website plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz
