Hunter x Hunter

The first couple of episodes might seem kinda corny too some and yeah they are somewhat generic, but stick with it. This isn't some kids show, it's actually very mature and dark(just the right amount though) It has an excellent story and doesn't have to rely on explosions or huge breasted women to keep going, it has a bit of everything really it's like a more modern version of Dragonball, an adventure. But instead of being all about Gon other characters get the spotlight for a good while too everyone get's an adequate amount of character development, even people who die shortly after appearing. Seriously give this a go, I have no idea why it's not as popular as the likes of Naruto and One Piece it's way more interesting than both in my opinion.

- WRITTEN WHILST STILL WATCHING, AT EPISODE 65 - The first word that comes to mind when I think about Hunter x Hunter is undoubtedly: VARIETY. With everything from insane, heart-raising action to comedy so ridiculous that I laugh alone in my room on numerous occasions; Hunter x Hunter is an anime that quickly shot to my number 1 favorite and only secures it's place more determinedly with every episode. At this point, although still ongoing, I'm roughly halfway through HxH and I've loved every single minute of it. That's because in this show, every minute matters. You can't look away without missing something crucial, hilarious or just generally entertaining. I was a late comer to the HxH bandwagon and after around 10 episodes, I was sorely angered with myself for leaving it this late. All I can say now is thank heavens I finally gave this anime a shot. NEWCOMERS. DO NOT BE PUT OFF BY THE LENGTH. WHEN YOU START WATCHING; IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER ANYMORE. Where I first found myself concerned as to whether I'd have the time or motivation to catch up with this anime, I now find myself worried about catching up and having to wait a week for each episode! And man, do those episodes fly by. The best anime are the ones that make it impossible to say 'okay, that's enough for now'. The array of interesting and unique characters is what really makes this series. HxH is not afraid to go with the cliche, make fun of the cliche, experiment with the dark and creepy, the light and fluffy, and everything in between. With 2 adorable yet terrifyingly powerful protagonists and their ever-changing company, you're guaranteed to come across multiple characters that you love, hate or just plain can't get your head around. But even without the constantly growing cast, Gon and Killua really do make this a special anime. Watching the two grow (albeit quite quickly with the pace of the anime) and experiencing all the WONDERS OF FRIENDSHIP AND SELF DISCOVERY is easily the main reason for my love of this anime. Not forgetting, of course, creepy-ass perv Hisoka on the side is just the cherry on the cake. Overall this anime is just plain fun. It's addictive, interesting, varied and entertaining in every sense of the word. It really is an anime that has something for everyone. WATCH IT.

The storyline itself is complex with a huge cast and amazing world building elements.This anime has large acclaims of continuing the storyline after the Greed Island Arc. Overall a fantastic anime series that has just bought to be shown here on Crunchyroll

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.
