Review of Hunter x Hunter

Hunter X Hunter is a one of a kind masterpiece of a show. It's just does so many things right that a simple conclusion doesn't give it justice. Story (10/10): The story is fairly simple to understand. Most of the time the premise is very straightforward. But the amazing part is the detail to the story and how it takes every characters thought processes and makes them intertwine with one another. It feels like the antithesis of the concept "show don't tell", but works so effectively. Art/Animation (8/10): The art is very standard shounen style of art. Very simple and easy on the eyes. The animation qualityis very good, although that is to be expected form Madhouse. The fight scenes are very well choreographed and outstanding display of animation quality. Emotions are well portrayed by the lighting and facial expressions of the characters

Sound (10/10): Perfect sound design. Nice balance between classical and rock music. The characters personal sound tracks are always a joy to even just listen to. Very nice attention to minor details (Whenever Killua walks there is very little to no sound, implying his assassin habits).

Character (9/10): Very simple characters at first glance, but as the story progresses so does the complexity of the characters. Gon's character growth (or regression depending on how you see it) is explored to great lengths. Killua, despite being an assassin was such a powerful emotional pillar for the latter half of the series. And those we're just the two main characters of the series. There was also a lot of character exploration for the supporting characters and even antagonists at some times. It probably rivals One Piece in terms of character exploration and development

Enjoyment (10/10): It's just so binge watchable, and very re-watchable. The fights are so good, and the show itself makes you think. It challenges the mind and makes it so much more enjoyable. You can re-watch the show and still find something new or see a scenario or situation in a different perspective.

Overall (10/10): It is a literary masterpiece and a cinematic experience. No other words can do it justice
