This series doesn't need a special. Needs a remake or OVAs.

Why a remake? It didn’t have any annoying filler.

Who's to say this won't spark renewed interest in the series?

Why would a non-YYH fan care about a special from a series from the early 90s? Hunter x Hunter got a remake and people who never heard of the late 90s version of it loved the new one, and it now has an enormous fan base. So it's a bigger win to make a remake for YYH.

It would be kind of great to see it with updated visuals just like HXH.

You are completely ignoring the fans anime is made for-- Japanese ones. HxH was so crazy popular in Japan before it's hiatuses it could sit alongside One Piece. You can not just say nobody cared about HxH in the 90's.

True. But the ending was rushed and the anime didn't follow the manga all the way through til the end. Also a remake can help this series gain more popularity.

Wauw really. That makes me happy, I really wanted this with the updated visuals.

Where was this announced? Unless you have a source, I don't think that's really credible, especially since many speculated early this year that we're getting a remake, but was actually just an announcement for this special.

I really like YYH, but I actually don't understand why they would remake the series. It's already a completed series, both anime and manga. They could probably adapt the manga more faithfully, but I doubt they'd remake the entire series than just making a few specials and movies that adapted how the manga ended. While YYH was, and still is, very loved (and rightfully so, it's a great series), they'd gain nothing from milking the series further to the point where they made an entire remake. HxH got a remake, but you could attribute that to the fact that it wasn't over, the original anime did not cover anything past the Greed Island arc. Renewing people's interest in YYH does not make sense when the series is over, unless Togashi is planning on continuing it.

I'd think them remaking YYH would be cool and I'd watch it, but we should stop constantly revisiting old series so much.

Now, if it actually is confirmed to be getting a brand new remake, I'd be wrong in their motivation to do so, but I'd still feel like it's not exactly a great move either

I personally will prefer to see a new work if they adapt the last arc.


Edit seems they updated it.I am.not sure but are they talking about the special or a whole new series?

I just don’t know about a remake. It has that awesome 80s style intro. That might get replace by a nipon justin bieber to be modernized. Thought, I dont know if I actually like the intro, or that it just got drilled into my head because they used the same intro for every episode. Which worked, because you knew exactly what was on.

Also, we’re currently in SJW land where PC police roam the land eliminating any sort of fun. There was a lot of dragonball type moments in YYH that might get ruined if it was remade.

Plus, HxH reboot was nice, but they gave all the mafia people iphones and shit. It was eh for me.

Could anyone tell me how much last arc in manga is different from anime?

Turtles_Hunter said:
You realise the manga end sooner, before the Yomi's son vs Yusuke fight. Togashi dropped that in the middle of an arc, if anything, the anime gave us a better and more complete ending than the manga did.

And I don't think this need a remake. Series aged pretty well, and the first series stayed pretty much true to the manga so... If they should do a remake of a 90's show, I would prefer a complete version of either Rave or Dragon Quest : Dai no daibokken (especially DQ:DnD, because man, I want to see the ryumajin animated).

JonasTheJay said:

The final fight between Yusuke and Yomi wasn't in the manga. So if they remade the series and stayed closer to the manga it would actually be worse LOL.

Dragon Ball Z didn't get a remake, it got a recut with the same animation, to remove the fillers. And due to the timing, we can assume they probably already were planning DBS, or at least were running test to see if the public was still there with a not so risky task. It's even more obvious when you know the whole DBKai was originally planned for 100 episode, which is even more clear when you see how the saiyajin arc is rushed. I think they didn't plan for it to work that well, and when they saw the numbers, they decided to slow the path a little and only go to cell with those 100 episodes.

Ushio to tora only had 11 OAV before the serie. Which make me think it didn't cover the whole serie. plus there is this 90's action serie remake trend that is currently running, but only for show that didn't cover the whole serie or took many liberties. the upcoming Hoshin is part of that, and there are a few other like this in the making. Maybe it's due to the lack of action show in new production RN, and that animation studio realised there still was a public for that.

Turtles_Hunter said:
What I think is not part of the discussion here. It's not about when it should, but when it does. I'm just observing that the show that got remake are either things that were heavily modified or not finished, either things that are so old that animation was a major gap for their appreaciation (like Yamato. I tried the 74 version, and it hurts to watch, I dropped the thing after 6 episode, and that was a lot before they even annouced the remake).

For DBZ, you have to not forget that the franchise was still pretty active and profitable (especially in the video game field), and that it was still the most popular manga/anime franchise in the world at the time. YYH is good, but in those field, DBZ is a category of its own. And once again, DBKai is not a remake. At best for YYH, what we can hope is for the show to get the DB treatment. And even that wouldn't give us a much shorter show.

For my opinion of the matter, remake should only be done if they give something more. If all a remake can bring is better visual for a few scenes, it's not really useful. And since YYH didn't age that bad, a remake don't feel necessary to me. There are a lot of other series that would benefits from a remake to spend time on those who don't really need it to please a small part of the community (DQ:Dnd to begin with).
