Review of Hunter x Hunter

I don't normally like long-running shounens, but when I do, IT'S HUNTER X HUNTER To be honest I don't really think I'm one to judge these kinds of shows, long running shounens...because I haven't seen many myself, out of the long and popular ones like One Piece, Naruto, DBZ, Fairy Tail and the like, the only ones I have seen out of that bunch is DBZ and just a pinch of Naruto. But I honestly don't see why this isn't up with those shows, HxH is a classic. It takes a simple concept, a boy wanting to find his father, and makes it a brilliant show. Since watching pretty muchmost of the DBZ universe, (Except for DB and DBS) I've watched Dragon Ball Kai, and DBZ and almost all the movies, um, I pretty much used to the formula of "Someone wants to take over the world, let's train and stop them"

And while I did enjoy DBZ, it's fights I have to say....well, they are dragged out and don't have too much....creativity to them, I haven't watched DBZ in a while, so they are probably a few exceptions but that is just what I'm used to.

But I'm really happy HxH kept it fresh with very well-thought out battles and excellent moments where you get to see just how powerful some people are. Overall it is just really fun to see the characters interact with the side characters and watch them grow.

So overall, if you have some time, and in the mood for an entertaining shounen, I highly recommend this series, it has excellent animation and music btw XD

The only reason I haven't given it a perfect 10 masterpiece rating, is probably because this show suffers from what alot of shows normally suffer from, a disappointing arc, and the occasional plot holes. Now for me and the scale on how I rate things, 9 is a pretty impressive score, 10 has to literally be a perfect show, and while this shows does have those occasional flaws, it's definitely a gem you should not miss out on.

Thanks for reading!
