Their relationship, its complexity, their personalities will blow your mind. I love the phantom troupe even though they ruined my dear Kurapika's life. If you're a villain kind of person or any kind of person, you won't help but fall in love with the villains Togashi created. What amazes me is how I still remember every person even though it's been a year since I last read/watched Hunter x Hunter. When you have a huge set of characters (I already mentioned tons of names), you worry they'll be ignored, background decor, forgotten. I'll talk a little more about the characters before moving to the plot:
Plus some other great characters who will steal your heart like Meruem and Alluka. We'll meet some outstanding fighters like Biscuit, Kite, Zeno and Silva, the greatest hunter Netero (the chairman) and some wicked villains like the beautiful Pitou, Feitan (I really like him even if he's evil) and Chrollo. No one can guess how our main characters will transform. Gon always finds people put in his way to help him to be stronger.
And well, who can blame them?Īfter watching the whole series, the exam looks so easy, honestly.
He also encounters Hisoka, a creepy hot weird magician, and a very strong guy. Not just any ex-assassin, his family is the most known in this field and unluckily for him, he's the favorite promising child.
And finally, Killua aka my favorite character and my anime crush, a former pro assassin. He also meets Leorio who wants to become a Doctor but unfortunately, needs money, so the Hunter exam seemed like a great opportunity to help him achieving his goal. One of the seven most beautiful things in the world. His people were massacred by the Phantom Troupe after stealing their scarlet eyes. He wants to avenge his people by becoming a blacklist Hunter, hunters who track down the most dangerous and wanted criminals. In his journey, he befriends Kurapika, the last survivor of the Kurta Clan. After discovering that his father is the best hunter in the world and despite his aunt Mito-san's complaints, he's going to pass the exam and then do everything to find his father, Ging. It all starts when Gon Freecss decides to take the Hunter exam following his father's footsteps. They have many privileges and can do some great achievements like discovering new species, capturing the most notorious criminals and discovering ruins.
Minor spoilers of the first few volumes, nothing major. Hunter x Hunter tells the adventures of four young friends: Gon, Killua, Kurapika and Leorio. Hunter x Hunter is my favorite thing in the world. After watching it about 3 times (twice 1999 and once 2011, however, I watched some episodes of the latter multiple times), I decided to read the manga. Rating of the whole manga: all the stars in the world. Status: on-going/currently on damn hiatus.
Number of volumes: 33 Number of chapters: 360 Status: on-going/currently on damn hiatus. And once they get there, will they ever leave alive.?. Having survived the terrors of the high seas, Gon and his companions now have to prove their worth in a variety of tests in order to find the elusive Exam Hall. The Hunter hopefuls begin their journey by storm-tossed ship, where Gon meets Leorio and Kurapika, the only other applicants who aren't devastated by bouts of seasickness. Despite his Aunt Mito's protests, Gon decides to follow in his father's footsteps and become a legendary Hunter. Gon might be a country boy, but he has high aspirations. Those who do pass gain access to restricted areas, amazing stores of information, and the right to call themselves Hunters. But such pursuits require a license, and less than one in a hundred thousand can pass the grueling qualification exam. THE DAY OF DEPARTURE Gon mig Hunters are a special breed, dedicated to tracking down treasures, magical beasts, and even other people.
