Story: The story is about a boy who's 12 years old in the beginning named Gon, in the broadest view the show is about Gon's goal which is to find his dad, and in this journey to find his dad he comes across other situations which he must overcome in order to full fill his main goal, it's basically little goals setup to the main goal which explains why this show has multiple arcs on the different situations which he must over

come.
The story however doesn't just resolve around gon only, Gon throughout the show meets up with 3 other major characters, one of them being Killua who becomes Gon's best friend. Within each arc we see these major characters trying to reach their goal. One thing i love about the show is how it doesn't always make the good guys look good, in many anime's we see the show try to make the villain or antagonist seem extremely bad so we don't feel bad for them if they die. In this show it's different and the reason we should all love this anime, instead of making the antagonist look bad they show their opinions and their view in the world. This way we better understand them and feel different towards them.
The story mainly consist of a tournament which is always fun to watch, adventure, background stories, competition involving many fight scenes, and protection of the wealthy such as prestige characters which we see Kurapika doing who one of the 3 major character gon meets.
CHARACTERS: With Gon and Killua it's pretty basic and probably something we've seen before, Gon and Killua are both prodigies which means that although they're young, they have extreme potential. Some example where we see prodigies are Full metal alchemist, Shokugeki no Souma, and even naruto having Sasuke being full of potential and promise.
Although Gon and Killua follow this trait they are still extremely unique and special such as their background story and the way they deal with situations. An example could be with Killua's train of thought in combat situations.
All the characters in the show are unique and has a great variety, i personally can't find any character good or bad that i hate, i may dislike one character cause they're in the way but you can't hate any of them. Even the villains have so much characterisation you come to like the character such as Hisoka. Most if not all the characters we've seen comes back into the story and plays apart in it, we don't see a character in one arc and disappear for the rest of the series. instead they reappear which emphasises HxH efforts in characterisation.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
-throughout the show you might disagree or dissatisfied with how an event took it's turn, an important note to take is to trust the producers and the story writer because in the end, you will be satisfied with it. Basically you need to trust the producer and story teller because they will find a way to make you comfortable with the ending of a scenario.
-if you don't like the anime keep watching it until you reach about episode 10, the first couple episodes are sorta misleading because it's mostly the setup of the main show such as introducing 2 of the 3 major characters in the anime.
-If you are discouraged by the cover and don't wanna watch it because it's about younger protagonists then you need to keep in mind that HxH age recommendation is 17+, this show was not made for younger viewers.
CONCLUSION: This anime is probably the best i've seen, the main story of finding Gon's dad isn't really exciting but it's the journey that makes the show 10/10 with all the teaching Gon and Killua learned. One reason i binged watched this show is the characters because i wanted to see more of them because of how unique each and everyone of them are. Almost every episode leaves with a tiny cliffhanger just enough to convince you to watch one more episode. If you love anime with tournament and competition along with concentrated fight scenes this is for you. If you enjoy any of the following: Naruto, Full metal alchemist, or even fairy tale this show is for you.
Things you can take from this anime:
-Everybody deserves a friend.
-Only takes one friend to change your entire life.
-Be nice to others because they'll return the favour.
-Give and don't expect to get.
-Respect your opponent such as sports.
-Defend your beliefs.
-Never abandon a friend.
-Trust your friend.
-You don't have to have similarities to be friends.
-Never judge a person's personalty by it's cover, its about experience with that person.
-And appreciate the people who are with you now and what they have done to get you where you're at.

Before I say anything I will mention that this is no kitty Anime, It's an anime with deep meaning and is very serious. It starts off slow but if you get pass 5-7 episodes i can guarantee satisfaction, i considered dropping in episode 3 but that would of been a grave mistake. No one regrets watching this anime.
This anime is enriched with quality characters and a thoughtful storyline, it cover concepts and elements such as: Extinction, Survival of the fittest,human race, superpower (forces), the common good,superior species, and government. read the description for a better insight on the plot itself cause I could possible spoil ...

"What is life without happiness?"
Before I start this review I should first point out that this anime wasn't suppose to a action or an overly suspenseful anime, instead it's suppose to be a show about ex inmates from a disciplinary school and their life after being free. So if you're disappointed in this anime because it moved from the addicting setting inside the school to a more of a slice of life, drama anime outside of prison then you are disrespecting this anime since the anime wasn't intended to be about them in disciplinary school but out of ...

Golden Time is very unique due to its differences from other romantic comedies, what makes this one better is its ability to deliver a actual decent story for being a Rom Com. What made me really like it is how it's set in college/university which is really rare. Anyone who is coming into age of college or university will very much enjoy this one!!
Another thing i really love about Golden Time is its maturity, you don't see romantic comedies often that's mature and somewhat serious and still have jokes in them that can still make you laugh so hard that you snort XD. It's sorta ... |
