This is my favorite anime of all time. This is the definition of greatness. This is the best shounen anime and no one can convince me otherwise. This is what people will remember how great a medium of anime can be.

This is the anime that makes me watch more anime back in the early 2000s. I remember watching the 99 version and I was amazed at how dark it can be, how cool the character was, how vibrant the world is, and how goated both the protagonist and antagonist in this series. Each character serves a purpose and the character development of each and every one of the characters is amazing. Despite the nostalgia part, i do think the greatness of this series is reflected through a brilliant mastermind in creating a world full of adventure, excitement, and lots and lots of emotional moments that I can't mention one by one. Once we start the anime, you will immediately be involved and dig down deeper and feel a connection to all the characters; you can feel their emotion, you can feel like you have an adventure with them, and you will cry, smile, laugh, all in one sitting.

Even though it came with a very slow start, but it serves a purpose in building up the story and set relationships of each character, and the story just getting better and better. Hunter exam arc is a good arc to begin, despite the boring Zoldyck arc, but once you get past the first 3 (three) arc and when you enter the Yorkneww City Arc, this is WHERE GREATNESS BEGAN, and Chimera Ant Arc is the best shounen arcs ever made with so many emotions, so many tears, so many laughs, so many fights, so many cruel antagonists, and guaranteed to make you entertain despite the slow start.

The 2011 HxH is the peak of any shounen. Madhouse has successfully created one of the best manga adaptations this industry ever witness. Honestly, the manga design is not as great as you will expect it to be due to Togashi's inconsistent drawing even though it came with a very very great story, however, Madhouse upgrades it to a whole new level. The attention to detail, upgrade on the character design, and they do give justice and this is like the best tribute to Togashi as the original creator. The opening song is so memorable and it has become so emotional for every fan, all the endings and theme songs fit really well with the overall theme of the series. The 2011 version has successfully adapted 2 (two) of the best shounen arcs ever created and the animation is so crisp, clean, and very clean. The voice actor acting are out of this world and they deliver their best in portraying the characters and we can feel every emotional moment become so alive with the seiyuu great performance

What makes Hunter x Hunter is so great and memorable is not only the story and beautiful setting. It's about all the characters that are unique and has strong personality within each of them. Togashi is a brilliant mangaka that beautifully crafted all the power scheme, story, plot build-up, incredible world-building, various mystical land and creature, and the best character interaction and rivalry I've ever seen. Some of the fights are also cool to see, the complex antagonist really uplifts the series, the protagonist is not also as naive as it seems to be, and the plot build-up is as good if not better than series like One Piece.

Hunter x Hunter is not just an anime; its an experience to be remembered; it's one of the comfort anime to watch; it will make you appreciate how far human imagination can go;

Its a must-watch for every anime fan. It's a timeless classic that will make you appreciate the industry of Japanese animation for creating such a brilliant work
