...screw Naruto and Bleach and One Piece. They just can't compare to Hunter x Hunter lately.
I hadn't realized how much I'd missed it while Togashi was on break.
Because, well, fuck, a SHOUNEN JUMP series with a PLOT. And good characters. Including chicks who aren't all useless and incompetent at what they're supposed to be doing. And awesome character development. And good narration.
The Kimera Ant arc just ended, and I still don't get why so many people hated it, because while it involved a lot of fights, Togashi ended up developing the ants rather well, and there was always this part of strategy in the fights that made it so much more interesting.
Okay I'm biaised, I'm a shameless Koruto fangirl, and I have a knack for studying the difference in mentality between humans and imaginary species. Which Togashi does, though on a shounen level.
And the new arc? IS EVEN MORE AWESOME!!
It's full of politics! It has this new group of characters who seem really promising, and those two egocentric pricks trying to outwit one another, and even those who only liked the Spider arcs should love this one.
No if only Togashi would care a little more about his drawings...
Not that I personnaly mind, but it gets really frustrating to have people refuse to pick the series because it's not well-drawn enough.
