There's also aleczandxr, his fav anime is HxH as well and he gives you some of the best HxH content in RUclips. They are old videos but old. You should check out - Shaiapouf one of the greatest antagonist video. If u like Shaiapouf you will LOVE IT, if you don't like Shaiapouf you Will LOVE IT because he was so full of complexities and emotions
They can never make me hate the Chimera ant arc. It accumulates everything they learned from the Hunter exam to Greed island. What you said about Gon and Mereum switch was great. Darkness and light. It’s an amazing story telling, which shows how dark it will be getting from there on. It’s an amazing arc.
Kalluto (not alluka) is the youngest Zoldyck :) Can always remember the order by their names (illumi milluki killua alluka kalluto) where each name starts with the 1-2 last letters of their next older sibling
I understand the hate tho ngl cause a lot of the time he’s explaining to the audience exactly what we can see, at times he just adds nothing and ends up being annoying
@@swervyghost i mainly watch the dub, i tried the sub but gon and killua just sound too old, they are supposed to be kids but they got voice actors that sound 20
At first I did not like Hunter X Hunter, thought it was too slow and did not flesh out the characters enough, but it's like a slow burn, each arc getting better and better, and the Kimera Ant Arc was just so damn perfect. That arc I have re-watched a few times and Meruem is one of my all time favorite characters with the most amazing growth for a so-called villain. And watching Gon delve into darkness and near death, while Mereum saw the light and humanity...flawless.
Is bring filled with anger and revenge not a human emotion? Im curious when i see this said, as if humans dont also have a dark side. I see Gon finally seeing the other side, the opposite to his always happy go lucky character. I see Gon finally becoming truly human. The feeling of giving up everything to have what you want. The sacrifice, even if viewed through the wider lens and seeing it as a stupid move, it was still a sacrifice. Idk, just a different take.
12:07 two things, first, and I know this was on accident, but you said kurapika instead of killua tore a heart out of dude's chest... But secondly, I didn't notice this until my 3rd or 4th viewing... Killua doesn't put the dude's heart in a bag at all. It's just the piece of torn shirt from when he reached in to grab it. If you look, the "bag" is the exact same color as his shirt or poncho. Honestly, that kind of attention to detail and masterclass world building is just one of the few reasons I fell in love with this show.
Love your vids! They’re actually such good quality and you can tell you put so much effort. PLUS YOUR UPLOAD SCHEDULE IS SO CRAZY TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF 🫶
I loved the Hunter Exam arc, they were all so cute and innocent back then. I disliked the Greed Island because I found it boring as heck and plus there was no Kurapika :(
28:05 Meruem wasn’t being altruistic in this scene, he was basically telling Netero most humans would serve as food while a few special ones would live in a quarantine zone.
@17:10 1 thing I noticed u said wrong was that Hisoka started killing the Spiders before his battle with Chrollo which isn't true. He only started to kill them when he realized that they supplied him with their abilities and was a way to attack his emotions and make them seek him out at his advantage. Hisoka killed Shalnark first becuz of the receiver ability he loaned Chrollo then killed the 2nd one becuz of the Another ability. Hisoka also was able to fight Chrollo as a reward for finding the exorcist that helped get Chrollos nen back after getting it sealed by Kuripika in York New city
I believe the chimera ant arc needed to be long for setup to have one the most amazing payoff i seen in an arc and it's hard remove anything in this arc (maybe the phantom troupe stuff but i love that intermission)
@@patrickbarney7054 not really. It's the breaking of the elevation of threat. The bomber squad was a little bitch compared to the phantom Troupe. Can't have such a massive drop.
I just left a comment and said the same exact thing. Every time I hear ppl talking about HxH and they put Greed Island up to the top I question to myself "Was it just me?" That arc was so long and boring
@@deecool47 I think the main issue was that it came right after York New which was such an intense hype and interesting arc that Greed island felt like a severe downgrade. I feel like if this was BEFORE that, it wouldn't be remotely as bad.
Good vid. Yorknew City is one of my fav arcs in anime…but I kinda hated the Chimera Ant arc. I dropped it 3 times before I got through it. To each their own!
Yes yorknew arc was just perfect for me , every episode had something new and added a suspense to the next episode while the chimera ant arc had a slow start and too much unnecessary characters i didn't like the chimera ant either
i dont care that Greed Island is one of the big three of the anime (for me PERSONALLY) Succession Contest already blows it out of the water BY FAR. Yorknew and Chimera Ant are still at the top but Succession is very close for me. Now that's probably an effect of me actually enjoying the infodumping in Succession Contest (one of the reasons i also like jjk) and Tserriednich is a STELLAR antagonist, arguably the best in the series (or at least up there with Meruem). More Kurapika is always welcome and we will (assuming it gets continued) finally get to see more of Ging. I agree that an arc can't be truly judged until its done but i believe in Togashi's skills as a storyteller to make this arc at least top 3 in the series even if he needs to wrap it up fast. So yeah, mostly agree with the entire list EXCEPT Greed Island and Succession Contest, would personally swap the two
You shouldn't even rank it without it being completed. If the ending sucks that completely changes your perception of the arc. I fully believe Kurapika vs 4th prince has the potential to be the best fight in the series but it can also come up short.
@@davidndukwe1986 There is no way i believe the prince is walking away from that fight alive. Either Kurapika kills him or they both die. The other antagonists had parts to play in the story. The king / royal guard died from the effects of a fight. i'm betting the troupe are gonna die from Hisoka. When their time is up, a fight is more likely than something else
This video reminded me how incredible the chimera ant arc and hunterxhunter were. Been awhile since i watched and now i remember why its one of favorites ever
I'm just now watching HxH for the first time, I've been slow rolling it 2-4ep a week with a friend and it's killing me to not binge, I just got to Greed Island, so I will be revisiting this video when it's all wrapped up!
12:40 would agree Hisoka isnt an antagonist really... More like an anti-hero (like deadpool without the humor) with his own ambitions but has no reservations on carrying out violence to achieve it. Also the Hunter Exam Arc reminded me heavily of early Dragonball when it came to it's time being so light with minor fights and building friendship/cast
I like imagining the utter absurdity of watch the assault on the Chimera Ant stronghold from the outside. Everything happens so fast but through time dilation we can see it in slow motion when the fighting begins, lulls briefly, and then reignites. It was look like a nuclear bomb (two even) basically just went off out of nowhere.
But you're "3 weeks ahead on content" you said on pod, so you Knew we would want more of this, and that's why you've already made another video to release about it to release in the future.
The correct ranking is 8. Hunter Exam 7. Zoldyck Family 6. Greed Island 5. Chairman Selection 4. Heavens Arena 3. Yorknew City 2. Succession Contest 1. Chimera Ant
We need more RUclipsrs to help build up hunter X Hunter's reputation, someone that i know literally said that Tanjiro could beat Gon because Gon is just a ten year old with a fishing pole
I feel Chimera Ant arc feels worse than it actually is because it comes right after Greed Island which also people weren't thrilled about. So instead of the build up being from there, it felt like building up from the literal York New arc. It's still extremely slow (but i think that's because of the time period when it was written) but its not entirely it's own fault.
Chimera Ant is amazing and I understand the love for it. Gon and Meruem have the best parallel of any protagonist and antagonist in fiction. The depth and themes behind each character but specifically Colt, Gon, Netero, and Meruem were amazing. But I also understand the critics. The pacing was very slow and a few parts were unentertaining to say the least. My favorite, and my second favorite anime arc ever has to be York New City. From the suspense, to the ruthlessness, to Kurapika’s motivation, to seeing the Phantom Troupe and learning of the darkness of the mafia world in HxH, it was perfect.
*NCHammer* 🏴☠️🌊 Ayooo, I *LIKED* One Pieces’ Punk Hazard arc! But, I enjoyed the Dressrosa arc *MORE,* which most people absolutely hated. Man, I really need to get into Hunter X Hunter. 🤦🏻♂️
Chimera ant arc, for me, is when hxh went from a good anime to one of if not the best anime ever made. Sure there are some slower or less impactful episodes, but the sheer quality of the character development, the consistant emotionally driven story elements and the genuine subversion of anime tropes, just raises it to a ridiculous level. Its the only shonen ive watched where ive actually felt something for the character besides "damn bro he punch good"
Man if ppl think 2011 Hunter exam was slow yall shoulda seen the 10 EPISODES it took to get to the hunger exam in the old one (I binged the old one thinking HxH was on its One Piece shit… I just watched all the arcs twice)
" Really? When I met you, I had exactly the opposite reaction. " " huh? " " I could immediately sense an inhuman beast lurking deep within you. That’s why I wanted to team up with you. Because we’re not all that different, you and I. "
I don't have any objections with your rankings however, you forgot to highlight the phantom troupe dismantling the Chimera Ants in Chimera Arc. It's the first time Togashi showcased the Nen ability of the Phantom members. Love it specially the last fight against the queen.
I enjoyed Hunter x Hunter and I can't disagree that the Chimera Ant arc is the best in the series, but I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the best in all of anime. I don't think there is a greatest arc in all of anime.
Nick the reason Hisoka and Chrollo had the battle, is repayment for Hisoka's help with finding an Exorcist. Hisoka lost and came back to life. That's when he started killing Phantom troop members. He specifically killed the members whose abilities Chrollo used in the battle.
I really love the chimera ant arc but idk if it’s objectively perfect. I can acknowledge that a rising action is obviously slow, but GODAMNN there was too much setup
Nick: whole cake Island is just about saving sanji. Me (an intellectual): -Recovers another poneglyph -Lucy learns in depth how to use observation haki -we learn Luffy can solo an army if he's willing to eat food and stay replenished after beating one of their generals. -the importance of being kind to weirdos like Lola, for without the big mom vivre card more horrible things would've happened than did -sanjis beginning to personal growth, by facing the horrors of his familial past -JIMBE JOINS THE CREW OFFICIALLY, FREEDOM FOR FISHMAN ISLAND - also accidently blowing up big moms chateau because fuck her. -Don't piss off a mink during a full moon. Plenty of things happen if you don't nitpick the same things you highlight in your favorite shows.
You have no idea of the amount of respect you just earned from me, by stating that the Chimera Ant arc is one of the best arcs in all of anime. True. Period. It's a god damn masterpiece.
AlluKA isn't the youngest sibling, KAlluto is (I highlighted KA bc the names of the Zoldyck kids are connected in age order, so IlluMI - MIlluKI - KIlluA - AlluKA - KAlluto)
no hxh arc is bad 1.ant arc 2.yorknew city 3.election arc 4.greed island 5.hunter exam 6.heavens arena 7.succession war arc(could be fav once finished or get animated for whatever story we have) 8.dark continent 9.zoldyck family
what is so great about york new city and chimera ant is that it feels so unlike shonen. sure greed island also had some darker themes but all the other arcs feel essentially shonen (imo) i think togashi who prior to hxh struggled with expectations and limitations of publishing yu yu hakusho in the shonen jump really shines when he gets to venture outside of the classic shonen format. you can see this in how both arcs aren't really centered around gon who is a very stereotypical shonen mc. york new primarily focuses on kurapika and the phantom troupe and while chimera ant features him more heavily the focus is more on the ants themselves. also both conclusions don't end in "the mc finally overpowered the bad guy" usually shonen arcs are mostly about how much hype can you build until the antag is defeated by the super strong mc
good to see someone is helping The new world review (Liam) keep HxH alive, the man has been carrying all the hype on his back

what is so great about york new city and chimera ant is that it feels so unlike shonen. sure greed island also had some darker themes but all the other arcs feel essentially shonen (imo)
i think togashi who prior to hxh struggled with expectations and limitations of publishing yu yu hakusho in the shonen jump really shines when he gets to venture outside of the classic shonen format.
you can see this in how both arcs aren't really centered around gon who is a very stereotypical shonen mc. york new primarily focuses on kurapika and the phantom troupe and while chimera ant features him more heavily the focus is more on the ants themselves.
also both conclusions don't end in "the mc finally overpowered the bad guy"
usually shonen arcs are mostly about how much hype can you build until the antag is defeated by the super strong mc
Also! I love to tell people that Bisky is the only one uninjured by the dodgeball game lol. That’s in her base form as well
you have the right way of opinion, the one that i agree with
