The arc is really fast-paced with great storytelling. Yorknew City Arc is perfect and doesn’t have any issues. Hisoka acts as a wildcard in this arc helping Kurapika. But Pakunoda breaks it thus gets killed but reveals the identity of Kurapika to others. In the end, Kurapika sets a Nen chain on Chrollo and Pakunoda. Later it becomes a cat and mouse with each side wanting to outsmart the others. Gon and Killua are captured by Troupe while Chrollo is captured by Kurapika. Phantom Troupe hunts Kurpaika without knowing his identity. But Kurapika captures Uvogin and then later fights him leading to Uvogin’s death. Shadow beasts try to stop them but get defeated. Phantom Troupe is introduced and they steal everything in the auction house. Kurapika joins the Nostrade family of bodyguards while Gon, Killua, and Leorio meet together. This arc takes place in Yorknew where Gon, Killua, Leorio, and Kurapika agreed to meet. The introduction of the Dark Continent was an amazing development. Also, we get to see Killua’s more emotional side, and his role as a friend and as a brother was great to watch.
The battle of wits between him and Ging were fun to watch. Pariston Hill is another character that is amazing just being in few scenes. On its own, it is really enthralling with two separate stories intertwined.
#HUNTER X HUNTER GAME ARC SERIES#
This arc is one of the most underrated arcs in the series often gets overshadowed by the Yorknew City arc and the Chimera Ant arc. Also, Gon finally meets Ging and Ging drops the existence of the Dark Continent. We get introduced to Alluka/Nanika and her powers. Parallelly, Gon is fighting for his life due to the power he gained by his resolve in fighting Neferpitou. Zodiacs are introduced which includes Ging and Pariston Hill. Notable Moments:Įlection Arc tells the story of the chairman’s election to decide the next chairman as Netero died fighting Mereum. The questionable morality of the main characters and the ruthless Hunter X Hunter world in this arc makes this a great arc. Also, the dark aspects of this arc and the presence of chaotic characters like Hisoka and Illumi make this an amazing arc. The arc doesn’t focus too much on the power level and the fights, which really helped the narrative. Tournament arcs aren’t my favorite things in anime since they end up underwhelming storywise usually but Hunter examination delivers by not having certain cliches. The first phase is a very long Marathon, the second one is a cooking phase, the third one is the Trick tower, the fourth round is a manhunt in Zevil Island and the last phase is a fighting tournament. They compete in the five-phase exam in which Gon, Kurapika, Leorio passes but Killua fails.
#HUNTER X HUNTER GAME ARC LICENSE#
This is the first story arc of the series which tells the story of how Gon enters the license exam and meets Killua, Kurapika, Leorio. The only interesting new characters are Biscuit and Razor to an extent and most of the other side characters are unforgettable that I didn’t even remember anyone’s name. Compared to Hisoka, Chrollo, Mereum, etc Genthru just isn’t interesting in any way. Genthru was a really underwhelming villain for a series that has some of the best antagonists in manga ever. But I think Greed Island happening on a real island is great and also the game elements aren’t emphasized too much which was good. Physically going to a game world is a concept that is difficult to engage with. This arc lacks the Hunter X Hunter feel to it. Gon, Killua and Biscuit defeat the bomber and Gon meets Kite. While playing the game, a bomber starts killing others for their cards. Greed Island is a real-life island where the players get transported when starting the game. Greed Island was created by Ging Freecs along with 10 of his friends. Greed Island arc tells the story of Gon and Killua entering a game called Greed Island.
