THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS
There are many good arcs in this anime such as York New or the hunter exams but one that caught my eye was the Chimera Ant Arc. I first hated it due to it's pacing and I dropped HxH but after rethinking it I decided to pick it back up and that was the best decision I could have made. First of all it has one of the best antagonist I've seen along with three amazingly written royal guards. What makes me love this arc so much is that It really makes you think if what meruem did was wrong. And most
...
people would say yes but I think no, this is because we, humans kill inferior beings every day. Meruem was doing exactly that and I like how this arc makes you question morality and if it's subjective or not. I also love the parallels in this arc including how much more complex gon became. As gon lost his humanity meruem gained his humanity, even if komugi was blind she opened up meruems eyes. This arc is so beautiful and I could talk about it for hours, days even.
There are also many other good examples of great wrtiting throughout the series such as Kurapika and Chrollo's parallel, there many other parallels in the series but this was one of my favorite ones. I'd also like to bring up the power system which in Hunter x Hunter it is nen. Nen is such a balanced and well thought out power system which makes it one of my favorites in anime on par with alchemy. There are also so many good characters such as Chrollo or even Palm, Palm is a very overlooked character with so much more depth than people put her out to be and the same goes for Gon. I've seen countless rants that talk about how gon has no depth but in reality he is an amazing mc. All and all this series truly is great and I could say so much more, I barley scratched the surface with this review but I'm way to lazy to actually go in depth into the symbolism and writing in the series.
