I never knew that it was one of the less liked arcs until I joined this site since where I'm usually active(Gamefaqs, Millenium forums etc) people really like it. So why's that? Is it because it's sandwiched between two masterpiece arcs?

Can't speak for everyone but I will just say that it's because of different opinions. Maybe more people on the forums you mentioned enjoyed it more than people here :) and as you say since it's stuck between two super serious arcs which people find more interesting it became underrated

People just don't really care for the lighthearted arcs of HxH as much as the dark ones.

I can't remember anymore -,-
I found it to be quite interesting though, with the old lady and shit, really interesting.

Because it is the worst arc. While there is some character growth in Gon and Killua everything else is boring as fuck. The villain there is pathetic and that dogeball match was pure retardation. The action is general was really mediocre.

I actually really enjoyed it, and it introduced Bisky who's one of my favorite characters.

I love it as much as the other arcs.

^ Which I thought was a necessary downtime.

It's not bad, but as you've said, it's stuck between 2 fan-favorite arcs.

Basically this.

Personally I prefer it more since it was more of a traditional type of arc (for battle shounen standards) Liked the training part,liked Biske as a character ,the villain had enough of threatening factor while not going completely overboard in terms of power scaling (*coughMeruem) ,the doge-ball part was fun,had the right length to it.
Just a overall enjoyable arc,shame that it went all downhill afterwards...

While I admit that part of my disappointment comes from it, being after Yorknew, and when I watched years ago, I thought the phantom troupe story will continue in it.

I still think, it's an underwhelming, boring arc on it's own. I think I've started to dislike Gon in it.

A lot of the aspects are pretty uninteresting, that's why. The villain, most of the secondary characters and the conflict. It doesn't help that it follows Yorknew either.
