Review of Hunter x Hunter

I cannot get over how perfect this show is. I started watching it, because I had read everywhere that it is one of the best things that has graced this planet. I jumped into the show with really high expectations and was expecting a decent anime with too much over-hype. BOY WAS I WRONG! When you first start watching this show, it will seem sort of childish, or your typical Shounen animu. However, you will begin to receive little hints throughout the series that there is more than what meets the eye. This is definitely NOT a children's show. Thereare many subtle twists that nudge you along the way and then suddenly when you begin the Chimera Ant Arc from episodes 76-136, the show starts turning all of those twists and nudges into jabs and the show hits you like a Mack truck.

I am not saying that the show is not good until episodes 76-136, I'm just saying that that is the arc that no one can shut up about. The entire series is beautiful and is very very well paced with only 2 episodes of filler. The SUB voice acting is stunning and the art style stays consistent and is gorgeous throughout.

Overall, I would not only recommend this anime, but I would go so far to say that it is a show that everyone should watch at least once before they die.
