It will most likely end up in the TOP 10,but I doubt it will be the first.

If the 1999 anime didn't exist, this remake wouldn't exist...

On the contrary, it's because of the 1999 anime that most people who are watching HxH 2011 are familiar with it, and thus its score is higher because most of the people watching it are the original HxH fans who love HxH to death. There are probably a good amount of newcomers who are watching it too, and judging by the scores given thus far it's safe to say a majority of them like it too. Besides I'm very confident it will reach top 10, and the 1999 anime wasn't that bad either, I personally like the 1999s portrayal better than 2011 although I love them both. To me 1999, despite the same material, had a much darker and serious undertone which really gave it this unique feel especially for a shonen anime.


You make a good point and i agree with most of what you said, but you're the perfect example of what i mean by my comment. I feel that a lot of the 1999 anime fans don't give it a higher score to the 2011 version because of the personal belief they had for the earlier arcs in the older series and i dare say their "attachment" to it. You can see the majority of people who didn't rate it highly are 1999 anime apologists.


I wouldn't be surprised if there were some 1999 fans who do that; however, I plan on giving 10s to both series because I think they are both great in their own way. Yes, I agree that the image they had of earlier arcs or "attachment" can skew their liking for 2011, but by and large I still think the overwhelming success of the 2011 version is largely due in part to 1999. It's the presence of the 1999 anime and the support of the fans that have made 2011 so prevalent now, rather than just some reboot. Even though MAL rankings count for shit, I'm still happy seeing it's pretty much going to be in the top 10 after it finishes airing. Also, having both 1999 and 2011 provides two different points of view on the series which I think gives 2011 its real strength. If there was no 1999 I feel that 2011 would be more polarized with fans either hating it or liking it, like a normal series. I'd even go as far as to say there would be more haters for 2011 or down votes. But seeing as how 2011 is a remake, it gives fans and newcomers a different portrayal of the world of HxH. This creates less bias in the ratings because someone can compare 1999 and 2011 and make a more accurate judgment of which they like better. It's not surprising more people like 2011 than 1999, I mean 2011 has better animation and art, not to mention they adapted more of the manga than 1999. It's all a new and fresh look for the series. I think more of the 1999 anime apologists should look to 2011 as a different view of the series rather than worrying about which is the definitive version.

You're definitely right and hit the nail in the coffin. Now that i think about it the 1999 anime did help HxH greatly when it comes to exposure.I said that comment mostly because of the nostalgia fans.

I just changed it to an 8. It's not bad, it's still very good. But in comparison to Hunter x Hunter 2011 it's not worth shit.


8 is very good.... like.. next to the 8 it says "Very Good".


No I changed the rating system cause I couldn't differentiate in my mind between "Very Good" and "Great". So mine goes: 6 = okay, 7 = good enough, 8 = good, 9 = very good, 10 = amazing.

And my average score is 8.1 so 8 is slightly below average.

The ranking doesn't matter, in my opinion this Hunter x Hunter is probably the best long running Shonen anime I've seen in years. In terms of overall quality it's as good if not better than FMA:B.

1+ the same thing happens to no game no life, although you never know it may just continue going up, well only a few more weeks is left before it ends.

The advantage hxh has over other anime is that it doesn't have that many troll votes compare to other anime, so it's 50/50 on it dropping or increasing.

ehh the difference between 9.09 and 9.15 or so is massive in actuality if you take a look at the respective stats graph and how the ratings are distributed

Also, HxH fanbase is bigger than Gintama's (and gintama-fanboys are not a bad fandom, actually, so I don't think they will be like One Piece and Naruto ones bashing the hell out HxH).

I actually expect the score to jump a bit higher in the next few days, given that there's quite a few users who only rate animes after they've completed it. It only comes down to how they rate it, then. Let's just see whether it'll be enough to get into the top 5 - if it does, rank 3 is definitely in sight.

The Hunter x Hunter ranking is more reliable because of the sequel effect the Gintama franchise has. That Hunter x Hunter is ranked above the original Gintama is proof enough.

My favorite "fighting" shounen anime are Gintama and HxH
In my opinion it's really stupid give a low rating to any anime just because you are a fan of other anime.

HxH: 9.09, But it could be higher

pd: The manga could be one of the top ranked if Togashi would have drawn better from the beginning.
Gintama: "The blade is not to cut down your enemies
Nor is it to cut away your own weakness
A sword isnt meant to protect your body
A sword is meant for protecting your soul"

I wonder why the HxH art is so bad. I mean, I've read the Yu Yu Hakusho manga and I didn't think that was badly drawn at all. HxH though....
Togashi probably just doesn't give a shit anymore.

well of course you'd have to compare it to the original Gintama, however what rating HxH has literally the day it ends isn't very much in the way of "proof"

give it a few months and we'll see what happens

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

It finished airing and thus the 1/5 rule kicked in.

1/5 rule being that you have to have watched at least 1/5 of a series for your score to count after it has finished airing.
