      The biggest flaw is the lack of a time skip during Greed Island before the Chimera Ant arc. Gon and Killua should've been on that islandd for a few years to make their power increases more believable, and would've added to the more mature theme of the later arcs. They're too physically young and it's kind of jarring.

      @emilytobar5300 Před 5 lety +434

      Uhhh wow people missed your point. I didn’t realize it til I read this comment but you’re right. Leorio goes out of his way to portray himself as selfish in the beginning of the series. And even as it goes on he doesn’t understand when his friends won’t consider their own needs over the needs of others, especially when those are people he believes don’t deserve consideration. But as the series goes on, he doesn’t completely lose his shit like all three of the other main characters do. I mean their shit left the planet and all realms of existence as we know it. That’s especially jarring when it happens to Gon but by golly it happens to Gon of all people! However I haven’t read the manga so I don’t know if Leorio has some traumatic story arc later on, but as far as I know from the anime, he’s a pretty consistent character.

      Eldergaming1 I have a bit of a story related to that. I was a huge, huge fan of the 1999 anime and then started reading the manga, quite a bit before the 2011 anime came out- so I was surprised and excited to have an excuse to consume more HxH stuff. But when it got to the fight and Killua *didn't* crush his heart, I stopped watching for awhile, because I thought they were pussying out by taking out the gore. It honestly nearly ruined it for me. However, when I read a comment later, it changed my view entirely. Basically the comment said, it makes the action more ironic (and I suppose you could say more cruel) because he just packages up a *dude's heart* in a neat little thing, and when he asks for it back, Killua does give it back- obv fat lot of good it does for the guy by that point, but he does *give it back*. So now I appreciate the more subtle interpretation; it doesn't have the same visceral impact as the original depiction, but it involves more thought and is worth it in its own way.

      @2triedforthis830 Před měsícem

      For me, it’s when a series makes me go read the manga right after is done, then have a meltdown when you realize it’s called hiatus x hiatus for a reason…
      But if I’m being fr, it’s when a series has an unshakable hold over me, when I’m literally addicted to seeing content of it, I love the cast of characters, the deigns, when/where I’m watching it, I know everything about it, and if I wanna know everything about it. A series could be emotional, soul crushing, but if it’s just that, idgaf, when there’s a character that has never escaped your mind for years. (Kurapika I literally don’t understand why)
      I just feel it when something is special to me, which is what hxh is. One piece as well. I wanna say alt, bc I did read the manga before the mappa adaptation, but it doesn’t have the same spark as it did in pre time skip. (I’m one of the people who don’t care about the ending until I think about it more, which makes me hate it).frieren beyond journey end, and other pretty amazing series that I can’t name on the top of my head. But hxh is definitely my most special favorite and everything about it makes me happy.
      Btw happy hxh bc there’s gonna be new chapters coming out soon!!🎉

      I suggest you guys to check the 1999 version episode 2 x 7 are fillers but they connected to the story Really well specially the episode 7 and it has a darker tone and more mature Characters(not all of them) specially the youknew arc and kurapika

    One small thing I like about the show is how it sets up a plot point and delivers the goods. Shonen has a tendency to lead you on, setting things up and then giving you bits of anticipation but afraid to really ever wrap things up. I think this is a bit of insecurity... Like if you get the full payoff you'll stop watching. If in another anime you had the "Hisoka face punch/ Gon badge" plot point you would be waiting several seasons for a payoff. Instead you get it the very next season. I thought Kurapika wouldn't even encounter the phantom troupe till the closing acts but in very early on in the run he actually gets a taste of his revenge. Such a good show. Probably never would have watched if not for this video.

    6:02 - "He is not the chosen one"
    Well, since his father is Ging, I think he is. I mean, at least half of the events of the story were more or less caused/influenced by Ging, all to turn his kid into an incarnation of hunting. The point being, he is not chosen by God to save the world, rather, he is chosen by a hunter to hunt (the hunter), hunter x hunter.
    Plus, don't forget that both he and Killua are super-geniuses of nen, basically Mozarts of aura manipulation. And Gon has, from day one, instincts and abilities of a wild predator.
    I think the "chosen one" motive isn't what differences Gon from the rest - it's just that he is chosen by a different thing than usually, and chosen to do much different thing than usually the chosen ones are chosen to do.

    Hunter X Hunter is my favorite anime. It might just be the best anime as well. For the first couple seasons it has this familiarity that makes it really pleasant to watch. The characters are well written, the story lines are interesting, and the animation is excellent and consistent. It’s of high quality all across the board. It here’s the thing, once we get into season 3 where the Phantom Troupe faces off against the Shadow Beasts something happens. The show shifts gears from high to off the charts. As we see Uvogin poisoned by Leach and we’re lead to believe that Uvogin is about to die all of a sudden I can’t blink. I can turn my head. I’m stuck watching as Uvogin proceeds to bite a chunk of skull off his opponents head and spits it out as a make shift built to kill 2 of the Shadow Beasts with one move. It’s unprecedented in the battle manga genre which has been over saturated with content for nearly 40 years. Who thinks of that? How is this a scene in a cartoon? Wow! And this is only the beginning of the build up. This is only where it starts to get unbelievably good. From here it is nothing but kick ass top notch peak anime right thru to the shows conclusion. Including the much underrated Greed Island arc. And that climax in the Chimera Ant arc is unrivalled. That’s peak of the peak. So yes I see where Eyepatch’s “well made but average” thoughts come from. Because they were mine too. But once you realize how great this show is you can go back to those “average” episodes and realize that they are pretty great too.

      @@danoliver8989 Man... nothings come close in recent seasonal anime. Or at least- there are some shows I'm watching but they haven't had that payoff from average to great yet. I'm gonna try not to spoil anything.
      I'm looking forward to Jujutsu Kaisen, it had a strong premise but I just finished the season and I'm kinda left waiting for more. Only time will tell. Kimetsu no Yaiba (Demon slayer) was pretty good- but it really jumped the shark with its ending. I'd say when the anime catches up the manga- just jump ship when the battle is over.
      One punch man is good~ in manga form? But its also in hiatus along with mob psycho 100, That writer does both and he's pretty good.
      Hmm... One piece is good of course. in manga form. If you've watched one piece anime- you'll really end up hating it. the animation is some of the worst.
      Gintama is actually good. It's got a lot of comedy elements- but when it hits a serious arc those slap.
      Dorohedoro is a really Great anime I'd recommend. The ending to the manga was actually satisfying and I'm looking forward to the adaption. This might also be a preference things- since the CG and blood might be offputting.
      Speaking of CG, Land of the Lustrious is killing it in the manga currently- not with any big battles but with slow kind of psychological mind shattering- kind of elements. the animes a good adaption, visually stunning.
      Made in Abyss is going to be one of those ground shaker anime... the manga is beautifully detailed and the upcoming story looks promising. It also had a movie recently but I wasn't able to watch it. The chibi artstyle definitely is a lure for darker plot but that's not really a spoiler, at this point its kind of expected in the genre.
      Talentless Nana- is good. ITs a big jump from HXH which develops its nensystem meticulously, to go straight to plot for no reason... but the first couple episodes are pretty decent. And you can even solve some of the mysteries early on because it sets up those elements in advance. Manga kinda dragged its feet, but its recently introduced a new character that makes it feel worth it to recommend.
      Trigun?
      Konosuba...
      Its hard to recommend shows for HxH the tone and genre aren't close to matching, mostly because HxH is that kind of show that can be goofy kids one episode and human murder machines the next episode.
      Welp I've talked waayy to long for this.
      TLDR: Dorohedoro, Made in Abyss,

      @Original Both versions are pretty good, but if you want to more ''complete'' story, I'd advise you start with the 2011 one (it stops two arcs later than the 1999 adaptation, and the ''end'' of the show can almost pass for a real ending).
      Now, the 1999 version adds filler scenes/episodes, some of which are quite nice, but it can also slow down the pace a bit (as it does, with fillers). That being said, if you prefer the more early animation style and don't want to miss on some added content, you can always watch the 1999 version and the Greed Island OVA adaptation , and then switch back with the 2011 version for the Chimera Ant arc.
      (If you watch the 2011 anime though, I'd recommend you check out episodes 18, 19 and 20 from the 1999 anime as a ''bonus'' ; it's only filler, but there are some gems well worth a look.)
      Either way, hope you'll enjoy it !

      @ Darkstander Gon is an extreme optimist. He strongly believes that everything will be fine and that he can mold reality. Though this quirk of his make him an unbelievably capable individual, it blinds him to the depressing aspects of reality... At the Chimera Ant arc, he could not save Kite, and even more so, he had contributed to his death. And that destroys him. He is really complex, actually. Perhaps a more realistic version of typical shonen protagonists.

Whether it's about anime, manga, movies, cartoon, wrestling and other stuff. I feel like everytime I watch eyepatch's video the mood, the theme of the day started to change. I feel enlightened.
    The first vid i watched from him is about Perfect Blue and i love how he tells the story of it. Since then i crave for more and more of his videos. Graphic vids sure. Heck even Gantz and Berserk that have those sexual moments i still continued to watch it. Eyepatch's vid opens me up to new manga's and anime to watch. It's not something i would consume and leave after.
    Thanks man John (i think he said his name in Berserk vid that is almost 2 hours long) for making this videos. I feel bad cuz i really love your content but can't help supporting you on patreon....

      I agree, well for the most part.
      I felt that thw Chimera Ant arc would have been perfect if it wasn't so drawn out. I felt that a few things could have been kept out to make it less jarring and more well paced.
      I loved all the scenes about Meruem and Kumogi, but as for the build up with the Captains, I could have used a little less of that. I wasn't as invested in those fights, let alone those captains. The only Chimera Ant captains that were intresting were Colt, Meleron, and that one scorpion chick (only because I loved the fight with feitan and I love the phantom troupe.)
      I wasn't as connected with pouf or yupi as much as Pitou but I rather see more of them than Cheetu or Hagya.
      Anyways, I think I'm done with my thesus.
      tldr; Yorknew is best arc and Chimera ant arc was too drawn out, but still good.

    one of my favorite fights of gon was with him vs. genthru. genthru clearly had the upper hand the entire fight, he even blew off one of gon's hand and severely damaged the other. genthru only lost because gon literally outsmarted him, dousing him with gasoline and sealing genthru inside a crater so he doesn't escape.
    Also regarding the villains, this anime has got to be one of the shows that i watched that i was more interested in the villains than the protagonists. take the phantom troupe for example, when pakunoda died you'd assume the one of the members of the spider would've gone after gon and killua because they're related to the chain user instead two of the members just thanked the two protagonists and just left them alone. i've been dreaming for years on a spinoff movie/mini arc that expands on the troupe's background stories.

    I watch this video sort of on a whim, mostly due to boredom and I heard random good things about HxH, on the same level you might hear random good things about something like Baccano. You gave it some pretty high praise so I was a bit sceptical but I gave it a go regardless.
    Even throughout the Hunter Exam arc, it had the merits of an incredibly high quality shounen. I was really enjoying it, especially thanks to Hisoka. It hit me that this series is something special when I got to the "Rescue Killua" arc. It was almost a blueprint step by step of every "invade the fortress to save a character" arc seen in other shounen (Retrieve Sasuke arc, Soul Society Invasion arc), and while I was having fun, I did rather roll my eyes since I figured I knew how this was gonna go. Gon and co fight enemies of increasing strength blah blah. And then after the first encounter it just...ends. Killua just leaves, Gon and co participate in a strange coin game with Gotou and they just move onto the next arc.
    This moved it from a highly entertaining watch to a thrilling immersive adventure that actually would keep me guessing. Of course I had no idea at the time. The Nen system is probably my favourite structure of anime magic, keeping the unique ability traits that make Jojo stands so fun and timeless, but the addition of "conditions and restrictions" was the icing on the cake. The fact that every character has an ability that not only suits their personality, but that they can even adjust the power of the ability over it's general utility is just another way to show a character's personality through their abilities. It's something they designed for themselves rather than a god-given ability.
    Then the Yorknew Arc happens and I just can't give enough praise. It was unpredictable, exciting, every character was engaging and interesting. The aesthetics, the drama, the action were all just top notch. The second ED, "Hunting for your dream" is one of the greatest EDs ever and the 'riot' sequence was just beautiful in it's horror. The series does take a little step back with the Greed Island arc, but it's the kind of step back where the show goes back from being a 10/10 to a 9/10. That was thankfully fixed with the second half of the Chimera Ant arc, which is possibly the greatest chunk of episodes in effectively any series I've seen. Blowing even the near perfect Yorknew Arc out of the water. There's too much to say about it.
    Having finished it a week ago, I still can't believe how good this series is. Even with all the expectations and good things said about it, it still blew me away with the quality of it's action, drama and emotion. The only real fault I can give is just that it's not complete. So thank you for making this video, cause I don't think I would have watched this series otherwise, and I would have missed out of one of the best viewing experiences i've had in years.

      I just wanted to share that during my first watch through of the series, I had a very similar experience.
      I kept hitting points where I thought I was being hand-held through a genre-staple that I was comfortable and content with experiencing, and then every time I was grounded in that the show threw me the biggest curveball and floored me with its twists and turns.
      Since the first time I watched I've rewatched the entire series already and am working through reading the manga. It is bar-none one of my favorite shows of all time.

      @@jjuunniioorr8778 If you saw his Bleach video you would know that he likes Bleach. Kubo's best quality is art and dynamic character designs. Giving his character's strong and dynamic personalities is not one of his strong suits. You can criticize a show and still like it. I used to be a huge Bleach fan years ago and even I knew the show had that problem.

    Seriously, there’s something about this anime that makes it special. I don’t know what it is, but I realized that I’ve never seen any anime that compares to this one. I’ve seen great ones but nothing is like Hunter x Hunter
    Edit: Update: after rewatching this show many times over, I really think that it’s mastery stems to gon and killua’s relationship. This is such a strong bond, but it is so delicately set up, and killua’s redemption arc is magnificent. He goes from a scared kid who can’t make bonds because of his horrendous circumstances to a confident young man who is able to make his own decision and find what he wants. Throughout the whole story, it may seem as though he’s just going along with gon, but in reality, the benefit he gets from following gon on his journey and dream is what leads him to his passion, and to something that he truly cares about, his (sister) alluka. By following gon and being able to grow close to him, he is able to extend this to the other people in his life and begin to find what he wants.
    I also think it a noteworthy that he learns what true friendships are. In the beginning, he constantly feels a great debt to Gon for how he saved him, but as he develops these bonds and grows smarter, he realizes that he doesn’t owe him, because this decency is what friends are supposed to show each other. He finally begins to have confidence, and this allows him to learn the true meaning of friendship.
    Lastly, at the end, as killua grows brighter and gon spirals into darkness, Killua is unable to save gon like gon saves him, gon practically kills him self, but killua has a redemption arc of his own, an arc where he saves his imprisoned sister, frees her from her horrible life, and is able to save his best friend. In the end, gon and killua saved each other, not just one way around, their friendship is one of giving AND receiving on both ends, and by the end of it, Gon’s arc is completed, and while he looks to find a new passion and goal, killua’s goal begins. As ones journey ends, the others begins. I think that this is one of the most genius lyrics written character relationships in anime history, and is the best thing to look at when watching Hunter X Hunter. It is truly magnificent.
    However, damn, the chimera ant arc and yorknew arcs are amazing.

      Gon’s arc far from ended bro. He’s never gonna find closure from killing Neferpitou, nor will he when he exerts himself too far for another friend. (Hopefully) he learns that in order to save others like Killua he has to save himself

      @hydn4574 Před 3 lety +15

      IMO HxH is great because it reflects life. The slow start showing Gon beaming with innocence, and lofty dreams of adventure. To making life long friends along the way who shape and mold you. Tackling adversity and showing how to get back up when knocked down. To the complete loss of innocence at the face of a dark, unfair world. Then realizing good and evil is often very blurred and complicated. Then before you know it as in life, best friends go their separate ways....you quickly realize life is about the journey and not the destination......

    keep coming back to this video every time I finish a rewatch. tears. It's so hard to talk to people who reiterate that hunter x hunter is bad, I watched 3 episodes, episode rule, they should have got me interested already its bad. Nuance takes time. I feel bad for Togashi cause he's here observing and writing his work he'd enjoy and has to deal with or use to deal with people telling him to hurry to the "popcorn" climax. His last arc is full of his complete development as a writer yet he's overlooked cause his back issues etc. Yes some writers can write at his level with less time, but im impressed he did it with mostly his brain and little outside influence, or at least less than normal.

    Lets compare that to other WSJ series and their respective chapters in Issue 2,2016 of WSJ (which typically releases in DEC 20).

      So, I powered through the first few episodes and am now already blazing through the series in the middle of the 3rd season. Easily one of the best "deconstruct" shonen animes ever. If you are reading this comment and are unsure about the series after listening to what "One-Eyed Wolf" was saying, DEFINITELY check this out.
      Its a slow start but by the middle of the 1st Season (episode 13-16) things begin getting interesting in a real way.

      He's hardly a villain. Phantom Troupe - yes, they are villains, and the fact that they can cry over companions etc. Makes them worse than monsters.
      Yes, Hisoka is crazy. But did he really kill anyone? Like go and kill someone? He kill when he fights and opponent know that. He only goes and want to kill Phantom Troupe. Sad that he are left with "I'm going to kill you all" as a clifhanger for over a year.
