I don't know. But surely giving Hunter Hunter 9/10 whilst calling it overrated seems fishy...

It's like a trick, the moment you ask if 'X' anime is overrated you'll have like hordes of replies but still you can't complain if you yourself are replying.

Now back on topic, for me it's a 9/10 and completely deserves the rating and appreciation it receives.

hmmm i don't can answer that.

because outside of the anime community it's actually quite unknown.
Ghibli movies, Sailor Moon, Dragonball, Pokemon, One Piece, Naruto are far more well known even for people who doesn't know about anime.
only when you enter the anime community you will stumble over Hunter x Hunter after some time.

and yes, inside the anime commuity it's simple overloved, i don't get it, i just heard of a arc that should be good (chimera arc) but i dropped it after episode 26 or something.
i didn't like the characters, i was not interested in the story and dropped it for good.

Unfortunately it is. Is not something bad or mediocre, but, consider it a masterpiece is a huge exaggeration.

Not really, no. Even if you consider it overrated, there are many shows who are waay more overrated so HxH is not even up for discussion in such a list.

It is. That's not to say it isn't good overall or lacks absolutely great cases of plot points, theme exploration or character writing, but the quality between arcs (the problems in its internal consistency brought up in the Greed Island Arc and the contrived resolution of the Election Arc in particular) prevent it from being anywhere near as great as the fans make it out to be. It's far from being the best Battle Shonen, let alone a top tier anime in general, but it's still good and unique enough to stand out from many more contemporaries of its kind.

I mean does it even matter if it's so called "Overrated", just watch it if you like it and don't watch it if you don't like it...
Then rate it whatever you want.

Also fix your grammar.

Actually, I think that Hunter x Hunter is underrated.

Oh, the OP is a Shingeki no Kyojin fan, it explains a lot.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

Watch more movies, please.

The Nen power system alone is a masterpiece, by the time you add the costantly expanding, consistent worldbuilding, well choreographed fights and some excellent, standout characters I would understand why somebody would call it HxH a masterpiece.

You say the best battle shounen ever created is overrated, while you still have some battle shounen trash in your favourites like Fullmetal Alchemist, Attack on Titan and Gintama. Hunter x Hunter is the most balanced battle shounen in writing from through the power system, well-written characters both protagonist and antagonist, world building, good fights with organized strategies and also tropes. No comparison to any battle shounen including Togashi's other work, Yu Yu Hakusho which is trash too

In my humble opinion, HxH is underrated compare to Medicore 3 and other battle shonen garbage ,including Aot and FMAB.

It's because of replies like this that makes Huntrash x Garbage overrated.

"Huntrash x Garbage". Wow. Did you come up with that on your own? Incredible, you're so clever and smart, thank you for sharing your opinion, I will frame your comment and put it on my wall because your thoughts matter to me very much.

I would try to discuss with you if only you didn't have AoT in your favorites. That anime is far more overrated.
