arguewithatree and I have spent the last few weeks watching Hunter X Hunter

Don't spend a few weeks watching Hunter x Hunter.

It's terrible and sucks you in regardless.

Great anime. The only one I'm actually very upset about binge-watching. I wish I had taken more time to just take in all that it was haha.

When I first watched it I thought I had more episodes left when I got to the end so I was very shell shocked by the sudden end

The writer of the manga took an indefinite hiatus, so instead of trying to wing it without the writer they just ended it.

I definitely think that's for the best; it just caught me off guard because I thought the anime included the Dark Continent arc. Meriadoc and i have been trying to figure out how you build such an elaborate world. It's massive and awesome.

My biggest criticism though is the lack of female characters. Nothing would change if either Gon or Killua was a girl. And a lot of the female characters suffer from being the same basic shell with different hair. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's true though, look at a piece like One Piece. I mean the world is unbelievably massive, and intriguing.

I think that is a larger criticism of popular anime/manga as a whole which I do agree with.

We're in season 5 now and... Gotdamn they just jumped the shark so hard I don't know what to say.

I know that the anime ends kinda meh especially because the manga has come to literally a standstill (I doubt it will ever pick back up to be honest)
