The animation is exceptional, the colors so potent and the characters all look very creative and fascinating. There are so many fun characters of all varieties, from comical to dark and intensely thought-provoking.
The beginning of the series grabbed me right away as it gave off a vibe of cheeriness and fun that was very potent. Yet as it continues the story gets even more broad and takes so many turns that are very unexpected. There are so many fun and interesting side adventures, and even the small moments of the show stay with you. I found myself enjoying nearly every moment that the show went along out of pure glee and anticipation for what comes next. The cheery atmosphere of the beginning isn't to be mistaken for how the show always is, for there are definitely some intensely emotional and dark moments that are equally as intoxicating.
All around this series was a huge joy to watch. It outdid itself as it went along and really shined throughout. Such a wonderful and imaginative show with a plethora of adventures and characters to really get immersed with.
Taking a journey with Gon as he tries to become a hunter, find his father, and make friends and enemies along the way was well worth it and was time spent extremely well. I find myself thinking about this story time and time again and almost wishing I could watch it for the first time all over again to relive the experience.
