The results of this poll are depressing.

Recency bias at its finest.

Or maybe we just like it better. And when you post a poll in a 2011 forum, what do you expect? I doubt I'd ever even check the 1999 forum unless I had a very good reason.

The Basic thing that people say is



Hunter Exam and Zoldyck arc: Better in 1999 anime

Heavens Arena arc: Better in 2011 anime

Yorknew arc: Better in 1999 anime

Greed Island arc: Better in 2011 anime

Chimera ant and Election arc: 2011 since it's the only one that adapted these 2 arcs

I watched the 99 version thrice and 2011 version once, but still I'll go with the newer version. While I do agree the 99 version amazingly showed more darker and mature version of the series, the newer version has its own charms for being more twisty. The 11 version nature and aims to appeal to broader audience actually made an interesting setup, namely twist. In 99 version, no matter how hard or clever the series tried to cover it, the nature of the series made us knew that some sort of strings are being pulled in the back and it'll trigger several actions which will lead us to nothing sort of calamity, while 11 version nature of being a bit lighter and colorful will lead unsuspecting viewers into the twist better, it's so effective that someone who had read the manga before still got left in an awe. I might have a bias or two toward twist in general, but that's what I find so appealing about HxH and the 11 version did it better for me.

I do agree the 99 presented Yorknew better than 11 version, however 11 managed to animate one of the best scenes in the history of tv anime, namely Phantom Trope Requiem better. The cinematograpghy, music, facial expression, gimmicks, you name it, was so well made it was as if the god himself doing the works.
11 version also presented Heaven and Greed Island arc better.

Phantom troupe requiem was done so much better in 1999 though. It made the whole scene way more human and gave build character instead of simply making the villains seem like super powerful evil villains.
Unfortunately the blogs are still down, I wrote a whole thing about Chrollo's part in that scene in one of them.

A lot of 2011 feels like stuff's just there because it was in the manga, and the creators didn't quite know why it was there but they just animated/voiced it anyway, 1999 actually seems to know why scenes are taking place which makes them work way better by giving them the right tone and incantations.

The 2011 version adapts much more of the manga without filler and it's just better in general but the 1999 is nice to watch it you are already a big hxh fan cuz u get to see some of the events in a different way and the filler isn't that bad.

The 2011 adaptation is way better.
It's not even a competition.

The only thing that the 1999 does better is the first 2-3 episodes.

Nah, Gon is a shit character on the 1999 adaptation and the art and animation sucks.
It seems most people agree with me by the votes and scores.
But i guess that someone that likes old anime's like you (by the favorite list in your profile) would prefer it.
I can never understand you old anime's fans.
