BEAUTIFUL journey. This is one of my favorite animes I was happy to enjoy yall's reactions.

yessi

Not really. JJBA is iconic. It's like recommending someone who likes anime to watch Dragon Ball, Fist of the North Star, Naruto, MHA. The big names. And like I said, I liked the first 2 seasons. They might like the rest, as most of the world apparently does. They also watch shows I don't like much, like Haikyuu, YLIA, etc. Personal preferences. JJBA is good enough and a must watch. Just whether or not they continue with all of it is up to them.

JN

Been an amazing journey🎶🪄🎩

Hisoka

Thank you guys for this journey!! I can’t believe it’s finished, seems like yesterday for me when I watched your schwing episode I’m extremely sad bc I was looking forward to your hxh reactions every week, it’s one of my fav animes I’m excited about mha tho, idk what some people in the comments are talking about, mha has a huge audience I watched 5 seasons which means will catch up to the finale with you

Алта

Actually surprised about how excited they are about it considering that Ange just talked about loving adult characters more now that he's older. Most characters in MHA are kids. It is quite enjoyable though and I think they'll like it. But I'll have to agree, that character's redemption has got to be the most forced and worst redemption arc I've seen in anime and manga. It's very rare for me to feel this about a fictional character, but whenever I remember that character, a rage boils inside of me. That character also has the most punchable face and personality in anime.

Astor Lefflinker

it's really good in the first season, but it really falls off, and it's not like C&A can just drop it... but it seems they're really set on watching it

Martina

my hero academia is definitely for a younger audience and it's extremely predictable and cheesy, but still entertaining for the most part. i've watched most of what's out (i ended up dropping it after a character i hate started getting redemption) and i personally only care for a few of the characters and their stories

Marley

SPOILER ALERT PLEASE EDIT THAT PART OUT DUDE

Whammadoodoo

Did you miss the part where it's not a wish if Killua does it? It's a command. There's no side effect, no cost, no rules. Something, heal Gon. Something, heal Tsubone. Something, teleport Illumi. What side-effect was there? Please do tell.

Whammadoodoo

Not true. The anime ended at Chapter 339. We got the panel of Gon discovering that he can't muster any aura at Chapter 344.

Astor Lefflinker

extremely boring is crazy

Jeff

Gon not having nen is actually said in the manga before the anime finished. For some reason the anime didn't include the scene.

Arkeus

@The Great Santini I think it's fine to discuss it a bit since I already gave a big warning above, and it's also kinda of implied? Like in the reaction, Carlie asked if Gon is gonna climb the world tree without nen. Unless she was spoiled, maybe some ppl who only watched the anime kinda got the feeling too that Gon was only restored physically. Since Pitou did say that Gon was prepared to never use nen again, and I think that stuck in Carlie's mind. With that said, early on in the Heaven's Arena arc, Wing briefly mentioned that it's rare, but people can change their nen type. So the prevailing theory is that Gon will be able to use nen again someday and his nen type would change from enhancer to something else.

Astor Lefflinker

I guess I was scrolling thru ig reels and saw a fan fiction about it lol my bad🤣

mohamed rafee

I agree season 3 was decent initially in vacuum but season 4 and 5 undermined season 3 for me with its repetitiveness and killed a lot of its best moments in season 3 in my points

mohamed rafee

This is the main reason I am subscribed to 2 reactors on patreon lol

The Great Santini

Bruh how do you F that up lol

The Great Santini

Recommending a show you don't like is kinda... wild?

The Great Santini

Holy shit really? I figured he would get it back at some point in the manga. I guess they really do go through different MCs in the manga. That's kinda cool but not having Gon involved at all is just wild. Also SPOILERS. I'm not sure having this conversation here is the right thing to do considering a lot of people might still want to read the manga and there isn't a way to hide spoilers in these comments.

The Great Santini

Holy spoilers, bro. I was just thinking about reading the manga. I feel like your comment would have been fine without the last part you put in parens.

The Great Santini

Did you miss the part about the absolutely BONKERS side-effects those types of wishes would have? lol

The Great Santini

I think it's important for us to recognize that the show never once tried to convince us that Ging was a "good dad" or something. So, I think it's fine that he isn't "completely redeemed" because that wasn't the writer's intention. What we got at the end was great closure for Gon and us. I'm thinking about finally reading the manga after watching this series for the 2nd time with you guys. I REALLY want to see Kurapika take on the MC role for a bit.

The Great Santini

Season 3 has some of the show's best moments I'm not sure why you didn't include it. I agree about 4-5. 6 is good. Current one has been pretty good so far.

The Great Santini

After a weak season 4 they really hit rock bottom with season 5 and season 6 was the best one imo. Season 5 has to be one of the worst seasons I have ever watched without dropping the show halfway through because I wanted to get to the next one.

Phil

Even though the movies aren’t fully canon or depending on the person if they are good or bad. Personally I didn’t care since I really enjoyed HXH so much I really had to watch them because I missed the characters so much. Thank you so much for reacting to this amazing show 😍😎.

Jesus Rocha

Mha was an amazing show the first 2 seasons, it fell of personally to me after season 3. Season 4 and 5 were extremely boring except for few highlights. I had to drop the show after season 5 cuz I was so uninterested at that point. But i know after a lot of criticisms for season 3-5, the studio does a good job with season 6.

mohamed rafee

Yeah u r actually right

mohamed rafee

Nope, there's no arc about Gon's mother in the manga. You may have seen a fan fiction.

Astor Lefflinker

Great journey! I think one of the great parts of following the reaction contents is that I get to enjoy the series once more. I mean I was never gonna watch hxh again by myself. It was so reminiscent watching the show along with you guys weekly.

Decaf

An amazing journey

RoZiiii

They actually go on about gon’s mother in the manga, there is an arc about it

mohamed rafee

bro im so excited sheeeesh

Jeff

I watched HxH for the first time along with you two. Thanks for giving me the excuse to finally start watching it... it was recommended to me since like 2014. Definitely realize now I was missing out on a masterpiece for all this time. ---- MHA is a pretty good choice for a replacement. I think if you're looking for something in the future that's similar to HxH with the Nen and what-not, you'd HAVE to watch "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure." Throughout my time watching HxH, I noticed that the Nen powers were basically powers used in JJBA... but IMO written and used MUCH better than in JJBA. JJBA is also an international cultural icon and favourite of many for many reasons. I personally don't like it beyond the first 2 seasons (opposite to mainstream opinion), but IMO missing out on JJBA is like missing out on Dragon Ball. It inspired so many after it. It in turn was also inspired by Fist of the North Star, initially.

JN

@146 This was when a flip switched and the monster I thought Something was turned out to be a misunderstood cute and pure innocent child. This episode personally impacted me way more than the Meruem and Komugi episode. I'm surprised Carlie didn't need to reach for the tissues during this one. @148 The map of HxH is the map of the real world, but jumbled around. Like Yorknew City is literally where New York would be in the real world. North America is upside down in HxH. When they showed the bigger world in HxH... it's like when in AOT (SPOILERS) we discovered that humanity exists beyond the walls. A complete game changer and mind f.

JN

There's actually an update on Gon. (MANGA SPOILERS PROCEED WITH CAUTION) -He can't use nen anymore. Something only healed his body, but wasn't able to restore his nen

Astor Lefflinker

We'll never know if more HxH will ever be adapted again. I can say so far though, if it ever does, that you'll see more Ging, Pariston, Kurapika, Hisoka, Chrollo, and a slew of brand new characters! Sadly, no updates on Gon. And a bunch of new info about the "Outside World".

Ethan J Soto

The thing about the election arc is that it's mashed together with the ending of the first major arc (Finding Ging). But it's also the setup for the next big arc (Dark continent). It's kind of weird when you rate it by itself, but it's very relevant for the setup of the next bunch of people that will be involved in the story, and to introduce the politics and stuff that goes into the arc. Which funnily enough is mainly focused on Kurapika (up to this point). It is a huge shame that the story stops right before a huge huge battle (Hisoka vs Chrollo)

Seth Leloup

Loved the journey! Thank you very much. My favorite arcs from top to bottom: -York New (Best overall) -Chimera Ants (Best Peaks) -Heavens Arena (Schwing) -Greed Island (Dodge Ball) -Alluka (Something) -Hunter's Exam (made a lot lighter than the original, 1999 version would be higher) It would be interesting to know what your favorite Nen ability is. Is it Tsubone (Turning to a bike/plane XD)? Mine is probably Netero's. ACCOMPANY ON, MY HERO ACADEMIA !

Aizensalami

Come to think of it, Something could have ended every problem in the show if Killua simply asked. “Make sure the family never gets to take you away from me, make them forget about you if necessary. Make sure Leorio becomes a great doctor. Make sure Kurapika gets all his kinsmen’s eyes back. Make Ging and Gon bond and make it to the outside world together.” Wishes are pretty worldbreaking. Heck. they could even bring back Kite, Gotoh, and even Netero. World peace, end all disease, unlimited power sources - what wouldn’t Killua be able to do? It’s like having God in your back pocket.

Whammadoodoo

yea cause my hero is next my bad

Jeff

I can already imagine the excitement they will have while watching MHA. Based on the reactions I've watched from them it is definitely their type of show.

MJAnime

Some characters do but I don’t think an overwhelming amount did, even if they are quirky and entertaining. Gon is a refreshing protagonist though because he DOES feel like a real kid, with specific kid-like flaws. Leorio isn’t as fleshed out but he also feels more human. Killua and Kurapika feel more like the cooler broader-appeal anime characters, but not as grounded. Meruem was one of the best characters (not necessarily feels like a real human) but one of the more complex and fleshed out characters in the show.

Veya

Ging has worn a lot of hats throughout his life: explorer, hunter, student, mentor, Zodiac council member, archeologist, outdoorsman, animal handler, etc etc etc. He just has absolutely no idea how to be a dad, so any time he can interact with Gon outside of that relationship he's a lot more comfortable.

Jake Thompson

Yeah, and not just the characters. The world feels like a living breathing world too, because the story doesn't always focus on Gon the main character. It shows that the other characters are also living, with their own motivations and goals. It makes the world of the anime feel more alive.

Astor Lefflinker

When Netero died, Ange said that he would love to see the characters mourning him, and for weeks now I've been waiting to say that Pariston playing with the whole election was his tribute to Netero, so I was really happy when Carlie said it and used the term tribute too. As Pariston said it, he just wanted to play with Netero again, and the election was the last mission that Netero gave them. So playing with it was his way of doing that. But as Ange said it, there's obviously more to the election arc than that as new characters were introduced. The election is a setup for the next arc, which hopefully we'll get in anime form some years later, maybe when C&A is finished with One Piece (if we're lucky) lol As you said, HxH is really unique. As a shonen, especially. It's more of a mix of shonen and seinen especially when Chimera Ant arc started. That's what really got me into HxH. The current state of the manga is basically straight up thriller seinen, and I think that's why Togashi left shonen jump just like Fujimoto (Chainsaw Man) so they could write with more freedom and put more seinen/adult themes in their work. My favorite character is Killua. He's just legendary. His arc was really well written, and his abilities and personality is really cool. He can be the most wholesome character there is but also flip the switch and become a really badass coldblooded assassin. Also that last quote from the anime/Ging is really something that people, especially these days with toxic hustle culture being prevalent, should keep in mind. It's great of course to focus on your goals, but don't forget to treasure the side quests and the people you meet along the journey.

Astor Lefflinker

No they said they just doing MHA

Callum

There's not gonna be poll

Callum

Praying for the next season within my lifetime..some of the subsequent content in the manga is nuts..Kurapeaka greatness

Kaiser the Elitist

HxH is ony of my top 3 and I have to agree with your arc rating. Chimera Ant and Yorknew really were the positive standouts, end arc sadly negative standout. Already looking forward to the MHA reactions!

Phil
