Synopsis

Hunters devote themselves to accomplishing hazardous tasks, all from traversing the world's uncharted territories to locating rare items and monsters. Before becoming a Hunter, one must pass the Hunter Examination—a high-risk selection process in which most applicants end up handicapped or worse, deceased.

Ambitious participants who challenge the notorious exam carry their own reason. What drives 12-year-old Gon Freecss is finding Ging, his father and a Hunter himself. Believing that he will meet his father by becoming a Hunter, Gon takes the first step to walk the same path.

During the Hunter Examination, Gon befriends the medical student Leorio Paladiknight, the vindictive Kurapika, and ex-assassin Killua Zoldyck. While their motives vastly differ from each other, they band together for a common goal and begin to venture into a perilous world.

Yoshihiro Togashi's Hunter x Hunter has become one of my favourite piece of fiction.It starts off as a lighthearted Shounen adventure series that slowly transforms into a Seinen and just blows your mind away with its storytelling that's focused on grounded realism mixed with adventure and some of the best characters ever.What I loved most about this anime is the fact that it trusts it's viewers intelligence it doesn't try to over explain anything it trusts us to figure things out by ourselves which is very entertaining as a viewer and kept me hooked till the end.The story takes us places we never even imagined.

I know that filler episodes exist. But now, a whole filler arc!?
A bunch of hideous creatures, a lot of new unimportant characters, whole episodes that focus in the same conversation between the same two characters, fights that last multiple episodes, slow motion important scenes with the narrator describing every detail…
Why the main characters Leorio, Kurapika and the ...

A generally beloved piece of media.
But the show suffers fundamentaly at several levels.
Like a castle made on sand.

# Plot
•Simple plot of a young boy venturing into the unknown with a dreams and making friends alongside. (Nothing new.)
An abrupt story divided into arcs which seem more like random jigsaw fitted without prior planning.

• The other major problems arises from instantaneous nature of writing.
At time arc is concluded without giving proper conclusion.
