Yeah, HxH's rating will drop. I remember SnK being in the top 10 after it finished. Now it's 24th.
The difference is that SnK had short momentary hype and little content. Hunter x Hunter has grown steadily, score and popularity wise. It's better to compare it to another highly praised long running series like Gintama which has kept its place in top 10 for years now


Disagree entirely with this. Snk being popular is the main reason why it drop so much. It being popular means that everyone will give it a watch even people that are not interested in this genre. Look at gintama and look on the amount of members in it. it's doesn't have that many members compare to popular series like snk. So I know for a fact that the people that completed Gintama are fans of the series.

Same goes for hxh look at the members not that many compare to popular anime, plus it has over 100+ episodes anyone completing that will most likely like the series. 25 episode is a easier task to finish than series with 100+.

And that "momentary hype" that you said is complete bullshit! There is a lot of people that are looking forward to snk season 2. Looking at snk stats. over 90 thousand people gave it a 10/10, that's more members that's actually watching hxh at the moment which is around 84 thousand.

I'll advice you to shut up and wait a few months to see if this series will maintain this high score or will it drop score.

HxH has had quite some hype around it as well for a while now. Also has much less members than SnK, and the more members that join, the lower the score goes typically. After a few months it may very well drop down to barely top 20.

No. Attack on Titan is entirely hype no substance or quality. I know a lot of people who liked the show when they first watched it, and then after it was done said they were disappointed. That is why Attack on Titan keeps on going down lower and lower, because people realize it is not that good after you spend a minimal amount of time thinking about the show. That is also why the manga score keeps going down as well.

I don't think HxH will drop that much. It's still long and people will less likely start watching it solely because of that. SnK is a lot easier to hate as well, with its obvious flaws in the show even if it does other things very well.

The manga score is actually going down, because people want action! which snk at the moment is providing character development and world building atm. Which you don't know since you haven't read the manga.

When season 2 comes around we will see how right you're.

HxH wont drop since 1, it's not that popular, 2. it's has over 100+ episodes anyone not interested in it will likely just drop it, which will not affect the overall score.

If you're talking about obvious flaws which are not getting answers that's not a flaw.

I wont argue with the characterization part, because the first season really didn't give the characters especially the side characters that much development.

Edgy? What the fuck does this mean???? *Goes on google* Doesn't hxh has plenty of that as well? Especially with Gon??

I don't know how a series being hype can be a flaw. Well it can be flaw because it bring all sort of haters to the series as well.

That's the disadvantage with seasonal series, they don't get enough content to show the viewers the overall quality of the series. Just imagine hxh having 25 episodes? I would say the characters are one dimmensional, because they really never develop until later arcs.

That is mostly just because most have actually watched SnK, and few would be willing to watch HxH. Stupid complaints can be made for any anime.
A few I have seen though are:
- Gon looks so stupid
- So much homo stuff
- boring
- where are the explosions?
- just for kids.

Gon is hardly edgy, he is probably one of the least edgy shounen mc's. Other than for a short period of time he is mostly calm and composed.. Hunter x Hunter has no major pacing issues, other than Chimera Ant Arc you can't argue any of the arcs were slow because in comparison with other Battle Shounen arcs they're much smaller.

SNK has just about no pacing issues at all, whether you claim the recent arc to be world building and character development it just seems slow and dull in comparison to the rest of the manga.

Eren is extremely irritable and ill-tempered, so he is pretty edgy as an MC.

Actually, I don't think the Hunter Exams would even warrant that much. It's one of the least liked arcs (check the poll).

I'd rather not start a huge debate about this, but the anime definitely has pacing issues and I would only notice it if I watched it two times (which I did). It's definitely good as a show that you watch once per week, but it's quite slow if you watch it all at once.

Yea, I was talking about the chimera ant arc having slow pacing. Ok, maybe I don't understand the term "edgy" could you explain this term to me? is edgy suppose to mean it's bad or something?

This is what I found on google, "tense, nervous, on edge, highly strung, anxious, apprehensive, uneasy, ill at ease, unsettled, unstable"

I don't know what anime you watch, it doesn't apply to every* anime but it certainly applies to a lot of characters in anime. Gon was certainly acting edgy because he was quick to anger and unstable during the most of chimera ant but his personality overall is the total opposite. Edgy usually has a negative connotation to it, I certainly wouldn't want to be friends with someone who is always on edge.

It's a pretty good series, but don't hype it for yourself too much. That's like the perfect recipe for disappointment to what may otherwise have been a perfectly enjoyable show. Watching a show with too high expectations can, and most times will, work against its favor.
Watch it with a positive outlook, but be realistic and don't expect it to be the greatest thing ever.

It's not that logical to assume that though.

There's more reasons than just troll votes as to why one series might have more 1s than another. For example how polarizing the series is, how bad the start is, some sudden twist that turns a lot of people off, its popularity, its rank, its genre, its appeal, etc.

A 1/10 affects the score of a series in the 8.50-9.50 range much more than a 10/10. Mathematically each 1/10 is nullified by about 8 10/10s. That's why Lotgh and C;AS despite having 2.8 and 5% more 10/10s than Fmab versus 1% more 1/10s are significantly lower than it ( Not to mention that Lotgh should have a greater boost from 1/5th rule than Fmab due to more episodes.). That's why troll votes count more than fanboy votes.

OT: It has already ended and is in the top 5. Though I think it will be #1 or 2 in a few weeks/months.
