after more than 10 years, Hunter X Hunter (2011) returned with a remake. the characters remained but with a slightly changed storyline. the anime followed the adventures of a boy name Gon. he wanted to become a Hunter, knowing that his father Ging was one of the best Hunter in the world and might be still alive. he set out on a journey, met with Killua, Leorio and Kurapika during the Hunter Exam. very few will pass the exam to be recognized as a Hunter. they had to find treasures, defend themselves against weird creatures, and sometimes, even fighting among the candidates.
instead of making a continuous season, they decided to remake the original season. making it more beautiful, more detailed, yet fully reminded us of what we would expect in Hunter X Hunter (1999). but unlike Hunter X Hunter (1999), it focused less on the battles, and more on character developments. since the anime started out right from its beginning, it didn't matter if one didn't watch the original season. but like its original season, Hunter X Hunter (2011) may looked innocent and battle oriented, but in depth it has a darker theme to it.
