Review of Hunter x Hunter
I went to see this work thinking it was more of a generic Shounen that everyone liked, and what I saw... One of the best works ever made. I had already been impressed by Togashi's other work, but this one managed to make me have a very different view of the author. The way everything is built and the characters, especially to get to the final arc. In which the entire development and message of the work is demonstrated in the best arc of all anime. We see Gon as a happy and cheerful boy, Killua as a killer without feelings. And in the end,what we see is an entirely different shift. The final arc demonstrates a lot about the 2 sides. There is no right side, but one that will win. While the Hunters are trying to invade the place, another development of the ants is done. Gon is only there for one reason: revenge. and Killua is assisting him. And in the end we see the happy arrogant, and the sentimental murderer on account of his best friend. The action scenes, happiness, sadness are all connected. The fury of the happy, the feeling of the killer, the underrated Netero being the flame of this arc, very good characters, and a villain that is certainly one of the best. The sacrifice of the happy to fulfill itself, the sadness of seeing a friend leave, the monster becoming human, and a human changing him. We see the represented form of the infinite potential of humans. From evolving in the smallest of ways, the King had the strongest power in the world, but he couldn't kill her. The strongest of the Hunters didn't stand a chance against the King, but he had from the start, Checkmate in his hands. He managed to avenge Kaito, but what good was that? I want to protect my friend, but why did he do that? Why do I have feelings for a human? And because of her, now, I want to change. All sacrifices were made, but something was missing, the King's fury and rage. He just wanted something... Even though he was destroyed by the cruel power of humanity, he became human, staying until the end by the person's side, which made him change... Best anime arc, and one of the best works ever made.
