Review of Hunter x Hunter
i just finished this anime and as a shonen fan, this has to be one of the best shone i have seen. I will keep this brief and to the point. HxH has some of the best arcs and fighting scenes and impeccable writing. Wjat draws me in is the focus it has on character development and how well it does. I am very picky when it comes to it and if I see lazy char development I get annoyed but in HXH its damn well done. Ofc gon and killua are strong MCs but its not that they get strong suddenly, you see the effectthe training and the fights have on them, they are also not the strongest characters in the anime even by the end and it just shows how much this show has left to offer (holding hopes that it comes back).
Secondly the arcs are amazing, it starts off like ur regular shonen and it develops at a great pace, but the way hxh takes issues from IRL and makes it work.Im glad they chose gon and killua two adorable 12yr olds as mc's coz its such a big contrast to the shit that goes down, AND U JUST WANNA ROOT FOR THESE TWO ;-;
thirdly the characters oh my god literally I did not expect to be crying when the show ended or when gon and killua said goodbye. LIKE I WANT MORE OR ATLEAST I WANTED THEM TO STAY TOGETHER. their duo is one of the best I have seen and I love character duos like this. Its such a pure relationship ;-; i love everything about these two and they are prolly my two fav mc's in a shonen. THEN THE VILLAISN OH MY GOD THE VILLAISN ARE SO WELL WRITTEN. ITS NOT THE SIMPLE "let's create sympathy for this evil guy" ITS SO MUCH MORE COMPLEX. the characters feel like real humans like despite the power gon, killua, hisoka, illumi, meruem..like all the characters good or bad act like humans so its so gray (except maybe hisoka and illumi lmao) like u cant just judge them easily. ITS SO WELL CRAFTED
lastlyyy i need to say this and this is one of my fav things about this anime...NO FILLERS. this anime doesn't waste time, like every character had a purpose and every arc led to the development of the mc's. There were arcs lighter than some but they all mattered and I LOVED IT SO MUCH. fillers can be soooo annoying esp if not done right (ahem ahem) BUT THIS ANIME IS JUST...IT MADE ME SO HAPPY FROM START TO FINISH
