| The chimera arc is over, so far this is the best story I've seen in my live. I already read the manga many years ago but this is beyond my expectation, thank you madhouse. You can't experienced Roller Coaster ride like this often when watched an anime. The story, the phsycological, the character development, the action moment, the ending, the everything is perfect. Maybe i'm bias but I believe there are many person who also agree with me I've watched and read many series but only found three that have the same level as Chimera arc, though still below it : 1. Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood 2. Berserk Golden Age Arc 3. Pandora Hearts 4. Vinland Saga Ketil Farm Arc (New Edited) So, can you recommend me any other series/arc that can show perfection like this? |

| I actually didn't like this arc. But it had a very good ending, so I have to give credit to it. I could recommend you like a 100 other arc from other anime, since I didn't like this arc. But we have different opinion so I wont even bother. |

HungerXHunger said: So, can you recommend me any other series/arc that can show perfection like this? None as far as shonen go, in my experience. I'd say the Golden Age in Berserk as far as "arcs" go - the CA arc is superb, but far from flawless. The Golden Age from Berserk is about as conceivably close to flawless as you can get, in my opinion. I hear great things about the Kyoto arc in Ruroni Kenshin, but like many other things I've yet to consume, I haven't yet gotten around to it. I doubt there'll ever be another arc in shonen to give me the tearful feeling of catharsis that CA did in the end, though. If you want to consider "Steel Ball Run" an arc, rather than a whole separate part of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, I goddamn loved that as well. |
| My favorite shounen arc of all time, no exceptions. The only manga arc that I've read that is on the same level as Berserk's Golden Age and Lost Children arcs. But, since this is obviously about anime and I think Chimera Ant definitely got the better adaptation, this edges out Golden Age for me. |

| The Golden Age arc is the one in the Berserk anime right? Is that really Berserk's best arc? Was that only half the arc or something? I wasn't impressed to say the least, yet a lot of people heap a lot of praise on Berserk as 1 of the best manga. Can't say that arc alone is enough to give an idea why that is. As for OP's question, different people have different opinions. The CA arc was my second favourite in HxH, so I think there are many more that can match up. |

Well, I think the arc immediately after it "Lost Children" is the best of the series from what I've read. But, yes, Golden Age is the best regarded arc in the series and for good reason imo. I think it's much, much better in the manga but, if you didn't like it in the anime you probably won't in the manga. |

Time to quit anime everyone, let's go watch overrated Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones There's no everyone in this, just you yourself alone can quite anime, because not everyone actually think it's the best arc in anime history, nor it's even close to being one. btw thnx for reminding me, I haven't completed game of thrones yet, going to watch it right now. :D |

| Lol Breaking Bad and overrated in the same sentence. Lol This will forever be one of my favorite arcs in all of anime. Although, I'm sure there's others that are just as good, if not better. |
| legend of the galactic heroes... you wont find anythin better than that |
| I'd say the phantom trope arc is slightly better than this arc but I've gotten more emotions from the ants compare to the spiders |
 |
| not in shonen although if Togashi does ever write the end of Kurapika's story line then maybe but in the next 5 years atleast(10+ this is Togashi were talking about) |

Asfaria said: Shinsekai Yori and Death Note are all I can think of that you haven't already seen I would second Shinsekai Yori. It's one of those stories that really make you think because of the profound concepts and imagery thrown around. If you liked the motifs and brutality of The Chimara Ant Arc then I would expect you to really like Shinsekai Yori. |

| This arc is excellent and it is one of the best of the anime (yorkshinn too). Berserkhas the best art but the story has slow pace BUT THE BEST OF THE BEST IS: LEGEND OF GALACTIC HEROES (but i didnt like the end so much) - aboe said: Cooking festival arc from toriko is equal to marineford and chimerma ant arc seriously? - Marineford is the most common plot of the shonen: Zero character development and just a bunch of pirates fighting against the government while they are screaming ¡Dad, Father!. - Toriko: I don't think so |

| Thank you guys for the responses and recommendations. I know besides HxH Chimera Arc there are so many good anime and mangas out there, but mostly I'm already watch or read it. We have seinen like Vagabond and vinland saga that is the best example of main character development and philosophy action, Berserk that have REAL dark fantasy plus really good art. Naoki Urasawa's 20th Century Boys, Monster, and Pluto that have different level of storytelling. Also we have many others Shonen like One Piece, Naruto, Deathnote, FMA, and many others. Or solo anime like Steins Gate, Code Geass, Fate/Zero, Psycho Pass etc. From what I got, there are all good. So best and bad it all depends on personal opinion. For example, HxH Chimera Arc is the best series for me, I don't care about other people opinions. So, I want to know is there any anime or manga that have perfection like this? And from many response, almost all the opinion says the series I'm already know. My point is, the anime industry is declining. Mostly the series that I can classified good were from below 2010 like HxH, one piece, deathnote, FMA etc. Very rare anime these day can impress me like the old times, anime like SNK is the best they can offer now. Even Hayao Miyazaki dissapointed with the thing he has proud of in the past. tsudecimo said: Nope. I recommend quitting anime and manga, and finding another hobby.

| This arc was one of the worst arcs in hxh. For me. I think the only arc ant arc beat is the greed island arc, other than that, nope wasn't impress like what the majority says about this arc. I give the ant arc 6.5/10. Thank god it at least had a good ending. Yorknew city arc is a 10/10 best arc in hxh. |

I know the anime would obviously have a different feel from the manga, but can you talk about specific elements like characters, plot, action, etc? |

| Right off the bat, the highest rated arc in the big 3 is a 7.something or an 8 out of 10, so out the window, other shonen follow, Golden age arc or Lost Children are as good. Mod Edit: Removed quote of deleted post. |
