Fodder and unimportant characters were around too long, boring training arcs, misplaced flashbacks which don't serve any purpose at the moment, plot holes, too much exposition, even gon's rage wasn't fleshed out,...it seemed he got too angry and over reacted when kite died... Kite was important to his dad and kite also saved his life... However he didn't even know kite that well for him to sacrifice all that for revenge.. If it was let's say someone like aunt mito who died.. It would have had more impact... The only plot point that was actually interesting was Meruem and Komugi's relationship... That's why the ending was beautiful (barring a few inconsistencies) Overall it was a good arc.. I saw what the author was trying to do and the story he was trying to tell. That's why I see it as the best arc in hunter x hunter, but tbh the arc was a rough mess and could have been condensed to about 30 episodes.. You alright bro , you are giving all possible spoilers.XD |
| I don't think it's worth watching at all. There's nothing that makes this arc stand out from the other shounen except from the lukewarm twist toward the end. Moreover there's a lot of unnessary and dumb things happening and there's pretty much nothing satisfying to look foward to. |
| Lamo , HxH haters are quite active. @lelouch4britanni then delete it and write again. Hope you know how to delete.... |

Either you must have something against these kinds of shows, but if you do, then why judge on your own perception and not whether it was immersible and made sense for the people to who it was targeted to? |

Can't believe you are using mal since 6 years and don't know him. He has wrote 100 of threads calling HxH - "hUnTarSh x gArBagE". |

I don't dislike shounen tropes it's just that I don't think the payoff at the end was satisfying. It's the lack of cohesion with the overall story of HxH that made this arc disappointing. Almost all the events occured during the arc never was foreshadowed nor had any impact with anything else in the story so it's hard to feel invisted and rewarded when the events are of temporary importance. There's also how the fights are pretty much all unbalanced so there's not so much satisfaction in watching a one side dominating the other. Well that's how it feels to me because I also hate it when it happens in One Piece despite being my favourite manga. So I don't have anything against Huntrash x Garbage specifically, it's just that everything it tried to do resulted in disappointment from me. |
| @Grunbeld_ emporary importance ? Agree CA were not foreshadowed , but saying 'Almost all the events occured during the arc never was foreshadowed" shows that either you haven't watched the show or you were using 0 brain cells. Cause big events like all are foreshadowed very well. Chimera Ant Arc itself is a big foreshadowing. One sided fight =/= unbalanced fight. You have to come up with something new. You do realize the arc is 60 episodes long and most of what you said happened toward the end of the arc and had basically nothing to do with everything that happened since episode 1. However, it has always been like that since the first arc. We get introduced to new mechanic that had no purpose in any new future arcs. Some things obviously stay relevant, but for a 148 episodes long anime that likes to explore new concept it's quite annoying to see those concept washed away the next arc without having proper time to flesh them out. Also lol 'big event'. Because finally something is happening in the arc it's now a big event. But sorry I'm not really good at explaining my thought especially when I don't have much time on my hands. |

| Man, don't you just hate it when you get a Cell ripoff, Ants that doesn't even look like ants, a furry, Kim Jong Un and a low-budget Okuyasu from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure from this wacky arc? For a series often acclaimed by its originality, it sure doesn't seem like one. |

| @Grunbeld_ So the events in CAA impact the arcs that aren't in the anime except the one that follows it? Wow such a great arc and anime indeed. I never said the anime NEVER foreshadow things, I said it's an apparent problem in the anime. Gving some example is not contradicting what I said. You even edited my post so you could play with words like that and strawman me. When I mentioned the unbalanced fight I was talking about the whole anime and not just this arc. But I'll be honest among the fight in CAA the only ones I remember is Gon vs Pitou and Netero vs Meruem and they were both boring to watch. |
| I was bored around 90 episodes but then later on, it instantly became one of the best arc. PS. I still didn't liked |

| 10/10 the best arc in all of anime |
_spoon_ said: best arc in all of anime it gets way to much hate Most of the hate it gets is from most of the praise the arc gets. Do u know how many times on MAL i have seen best Shonen arc😂 i honestly think it gets more praise than hate, I understand the ending was good but the arc just has discontinued moments, a lot of narration and etc and the nos of deaths in this arc my own personal nitpick, togashi killed so many in this arc but the most important death that should have happened 'Kite' didn't happen |
Cestlavie_ said: yea the poll as well is proof that more people love it then hate it. but the minority that hates the arc is extremely active and vocal especially on the forums _spoon_ said: best arc in all of anime it gets way to much hate Most of the hate it gets is from most of the praise the arc gets.

| "King of Ants! You have no idea, do you? Of the bottomless malice within the human heart!" this single line and scene made me fall in love with this arc. The writing was extremely beautiful in chimera ant arc |
