I've just finished the '99 anime and gotten up to date on the manga and I'm sorry. You were right. Hunter x Hunter is the ascended god king of Shounen, it's so good it surpasses Shounen to be one of the best worlds of all time in all mediums. No other Shounen can compare, they're rags compared to Hunter x Hunter.
Apologize after you've watched '11 instead of being manipulated into watching a filler-ridden butchery of the manga by "old=good" mouthbreathers on Yea Forums.
Landon Phillips
Yes, it's the best. Unfortunately, like almost all anime with the exception of Dragon Ball (because if you throw something at the wall 1000 times it will stick at least a couple of times) there are no good games.
Charles Hall
'11 is cheap looking trash, I refuse to watch it
Old IS always better
Jordan Parker
Yeah also this, '11 is infinitely better than '99 (which is also still good and transcends a lot of other shounen).
Matthew Wilson
HxH is too kino for vidya, even its current arc is more about psychological warfare than fighting.
Daniel Hill
The manga itself looks atrocious because Togashi's talent is for writing not drawing, so clearly you have no problem with cheap looking trash. Form your own coherent opinion you robot. '11 is the objectively superior adaptation in all aspects except for a select few scenes in Yorknew which is all '99fags cling to to support their cause.
Brandon Robinson
>No other Shounen can compare Psyren could, then it got fucking cancelled because of nips having shit taste.
>I >Are there any good Hunter x Hunter video games? Haha, no. But maybe if you buy the next JRPG adaptation of the great and almighty FAIRY TAIL by Gust, you might get a Hunter X Hunter game next. Maybe.
Why are you guys on a site that literally ends in chan if you don't like anime?
Cameron Barnes
I saw both and the old show is better
Thomas Young
You can like anime but not liking HxH, nigger
Josiah Cooper
I actually like the older series more because I enjoy the more somber and melancholy tone. But yeah 99 hxh< 11 hxh
Juan Brown
The first part of Naruto copies the Hunter Exam directly. Like even Itachi is just stolen.
Easton Reyes
not that guy but I liked the old show better brotherhood got boring fast I liked the sailor moon anime better than the SOULLESS original manga too
Evan Barnes
The problem is that HxH's strengths aren't easily adaptable to a game format, it's built on constant creative and unique turns, and is focused on storytelling rather than powersets and mindless battles. Sure you could dilute everyone's powers into standard video game fare mechanics, but at that point you're just reskinning existing games rather than making a game faithful to the HxH spirit. You could have e.g. Morel as a character who uses his pipe as a melee weapon and has a Deep Purple as an assist special attack, but what made people like Morel are the creative ways he solves situations, like beating Cheetu and Leol, which aren't predictable enough to be programmed into dynamic mechanics, and if they were to be scripted then why even bother making a game when it could be a manga/anime spinoff or new story.
People see HxH classified as shonen and immediately assume it's similar to all other shonen and that it should be like all other shonen, when what makes HxH so good is all the ways it's not a typical shonen. Another way I see this manifest is through people who are bored of the Boat Arc and think it's filler in the way of the end goal which is a promised Dark Continent arc, when the Boat Arc is typical HxH storytelling and is supposed to be more of the "meat"/core of the series, with the Dark Continent only there to string you along and make you keep reading/watching like Ging was until he was "resolved". HxH was never about mindlessly fighting mindless monsters, and its culmination probably won't be either. Good thing Togashi will never finish it so we'll never know for sure.
>aren't easily adaptable to a game format, Wrong, you can make a fucking entire rpg around it. World is already established with its mechanics and how things work. You don't have to use the manga's plot for a game. Just create your own character, go do the hunter's exam, then go on adventuring. That shit is easy to make, but as we know, nips aren't capable of doing that.
Christian Smith
and it does it better
Julian Miller
nice fallacy >World is already established with its mechanics and how things work. I know almost fucking nothing about the world.
Mason Clark
Wait a second... this isn't video games!
Xavier Garcia
>i WE*
Alexander Cook
>I know almost fucking nothing about the world. Then read the manga.
Logan Evans
There is literally nothing particularly exciting or interesting about HxH's world or mechanics on their own, they gain meaning when Togashi writes them and gives them meaning. The powers are "literally anything", the world is "literally whatever is necessary", the villains are "whatever Togashi wants". With how arbitrary and undefined everything is, you could easily make the case for an unrelated series like Dragon Ball being set in the same world and there would be almost no story conflicts.
Jose Harris
don't try to reason with OP or anyone else on this board, they're all a bunch of contrarian faggots just for the sake of being contrarian faggots
Henry Foster
Did you ever stop to think maybe the popular thing ISN'T good? Maybe the old thing really is better?
Not all the time, but most of the time it's true.
Alexander Collins
I always thought that Yea Forums & Yea Forums hated each other? Why is there an anime thread in Yea Forums? Strange times I guess.
Jace Carter
>11 >muh accurate adaption
Kayden Rodriguez
>dude, it gets better after 200 chapters, lmao yeah, no, fuck that
Easton Gutierrez
Based and true, I'd literally trade all other series just to have more hxh
Evan Smith
HXH fags are so fucking insufferable.
John Brown
>I always thought that Yea Forums & Yea Forums hated each other? Crawl back into your mothers womb, you fucking fetus
Jayden Murphy
Did you ever stop to think maybe the popular thing IS good? Maybe the old thing really is worse?
Not all the time, but most of the time it's true.
Joseph Foster
Yorknew is better in 99 but everything is better in 2011 except for the artstyle.
Christopher Cook
Hunter X Hunter isn't one such case, however.
Mason Cooper
I got up to the characters just learning about that nen or whatever in that battle tower in the '11 anime. When does this get good?
Joshua Lopez
Before that and after that. Each arc is very distinct. Yorknew City is the next arc and it's got a lot more intrigue and introduces some interesting new characters. Following that is a great adventure arc, followed by a conflict with nature turned on its head, then a training arc, then a bunch of madcap fighting with crazy rules.
Kayden Robinson
O-posting was my favorite thing to come out from that debacle.
Wyatt Edwards
FPBP
Christian Long
>Did you ever stop to think maybe the popular thing IS good? Yes, and then I compare it to the old thing and 99 times out of 100 the new thing is trash.
I know you're a room temperature iq, limp wristed faggot but "lots of people like it = it's good" is NEVER true.
William Russell
Literally die Fake hunterchad
Robert Bailey
>I-It’s a deconstruction of the Yea Forums sings genre!!
Chase Sullivan
You just outed yourself as a contrarian. The 2011 series is what the 99 series wanted to be but couldn't due to animation and budget limitations and being forced to use filler to not pass the manga. You might prefer the older style animation but it looked like it did not out of choice but out of necessity. The newer adaptation is a truer adaptation, the animation is almost always superior, the voice acting is better and the story is more streamlined.
Levi Ward
>is NEVER true But that's wrong. That's definitively wrong. If it wasn't good, lots of people wouldn't like it. What you're talking about is called "Personal preference" and "contrarian".
Lincoln Reed
>contrarian! contrarian! Popularity never correlates with quality. It's not a measure of how good something is. I'm not a contrarian, you're just a retard in the company of retards.
Grayson Gonzalez
>If it wasn't good, lots of people wouldn't like it Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Avengers, Star Wars etc.
Shut the fuck up you fucking sheep.
Nolan Rogers
Yeah it's exactly why I wasn't too keen on the Jojo games we got. Most Jojo fights were about how creatively they used they're stands to get out of a shit situation. There were a few times where they just punched their way out but a lot of times they just ran for their lives. HXH was similar. You can just apply typical fighting game rules to a few of the characters but most of them have abilities beyond a punch or a sword.
Leo Sanders
I like how you didn't address anything else he said.
Christian Torres
why did you watch 99 instead of 2011 you absolute retard
Aiden Adams
fuck yeah, Psyren was great and cancelled far too soon
Nolan Diaz
Unironically why would anyone would want to watch virgin '99 version instead of chad 20011 one?
Aiden Reed
Because it's not even worth a response
John Richardson
2011>1999 because 2011 has one of the greatest stories told in the entire anime and manga medium
It isn't. Its boring as shit painfully slowpaced and the villain is a child turned socialist. Ends with 2 asspulls and then followed by an arc with 2 asspulls just to revert one asspull. The other asspull introduces something that makes no sense to the world and is quickly ignored. Its a dogshit arc and anyone singing any praise of this dogshit series should be taken out back and shot.
>shitty DBZ clone arc >better than hunter exams, yorkshin or greed island peak shit taste
Michael Brown
yorkshin is the only acceptable arc in this whole manga the others you mentioned are also shit especially isekai training arc
Adrian Allen
HxH autismos are unironically the MLPfags of this age. Kill yourselves.
Xavier Lee
>Guy punches air for a whole year >Somehow ends up the world's strongest nen user and leader of some organization How does this make sense
Nolan Richardson
Well at least you acknowledge it now.
You are forgiv-
Nevermind. You're a filthy fucking casual who has no idea what they're missing. I don't even care about spoiling anything for you because you're such a fucking idiot.
Last quarter of chimera ant arc deadass most REAL SHIT I've ever seen
GOT DAYUM YOU JUST FUCKED UP
that feeling but then the next scene escalated it to the Fucking moon.
Bentley Bennett
>2011 >Looking better >Having better animation Kek, 2011 looks flat as fuck like painted on paint with zero effort and the animation and direction is non existant as 90% of the time they just use shitty close ups. All the animation effort is put into fights and they are full of cuts, speedlines, one colored back grounds etc. Literally zoomer tier adaptation for newfags in anime who don't know any better.
Jonathan Reed
Why pick 99 over 2011? >Amazing Direction >Beautiful landscapes >Amazing framing >Norio FUCKING Matsumoto >AESTHETICS >Actual Cinematography >Kino OST
2011 hardly has any artistic direction what's so ever. It's bland 1:1 adaptation of the manga.
Can’t handle the truth, you dumb motherless whore?
John Sanders
Jesus fuck the latest arc is pure shit. Literally 5 new characters are added every chapter probably just to be killed by meaningless bullshit. I miss comfy gon killua adventures
Camden Howard
I swear to God you faggots are the anime equivalent of Rick and Morty or the my little pony retards. Go jerk off about your favorite children's cartoon somewhere no one gives a shit
Dylan Ortiz
learn what an asspull is before you type dumb sperg
Brayden Barnes
this is an anime website fuck off
Aaron Adams
That looks like shit
Ethan Peterson
Everything looks like shit
Jackson Peterson
Yea Forums and Yea Forums had a tsundere relationship back in the day moron, fucking kill yourself and reincarnate 15 years ago
David Gray
Wrong board faggot, if we gave a damn about your stupid children's cartoon we'd be in Yea Forums
The fact that you ass eaters have to post in Yea Forums really shows how much of a basic bitch attention whore you are
Ian Jenkins
>Wrong board faggot This is an anime video game board, non-anime related video games are not welcome. Take your western trash elsewhere.
Liam Howard
>We
You and who else?
Matthew James
Until HxH gets a game prompty fuck off
Luke Williams
Kind of wish Togashi didn't head to the CA Ant Arc so fast
