#i finished binging HxH

[eli-workshop]

AYO IT'S HUNTER TIME

[rabbitsfrommars]

Man y'know I lowkey miss my hunterxhunter era. I've had this blog for like 5 years or some shit but nothing will ever top my Leorio stanning era or my Kurapika stanning era.

Shout out to Leorio, if nobody got me Leorio got me can I get an amen 🙏

[chaisshitposts]

thanks for reminding me i can manifest them to be chill- i way too used to my strict parents lmao

THE JOJO REFERENCES GOES HARD FR

i haven't catched up with hxh manga but i did finish the anime and basically killua split up to protect alluka and gon wanted to meet his father so they technically couldn't stay together, there's a possibility that they won't appear in the manga again :((

don't blame me😭 the first thing i saw about kny was that episode and nezuko (there was so many nezuko edits oml), but first episode was like a 50/50 for me?? i'm pretty sure it's because i used to watch like really dark magical girls animes when i was younger and my cousins always made me watch the final destination series with them🧍🏻

OML TOJI I REMEMBER READING THE MANGA AND WANTING HIM AND MEGUMI TO MEET SDCNKSDJFBS and yuta is the literal definition of looking like a cinnamon roll but can actually kill you

I DON'T BLAME YOU ABOUT THE PROMISED NEVERLAND CUz Isabella's jumpscare in the first episode was😭😭🖐🏻 and yES PLS GIVE BUNGO STAY DOGS A CHANCE!

KATEKYO HITMAN REBORN?? I HAVEN'T WATCHED IT YET BUT MY COUSIN WATCHES IT A LOT

there's something so scrumptiously delicious about main characters who are weak but are actually strong and just humbles the people who underestimates them, like, sLAY

my sister recommended me mashle! it's on to watch list since i'm planning on binge watching animes in my waiting room and PLS TELL ME THAT ZOM 100 IS FINALLY COMPLETED, I'VE BEEN WANTING TO BINGE WATCH IT SINCE LIKE LAST LAST MONTH

i'm currently watching the apothecary diaries! It's so refreshing because the female lead is so smart and pragmatic, like she doesn't give a sht about the male lead and just loves medicine and poison tasting so much😫 the only thing i dislike is how she's being forced to be the male lead's partner but the plot is still good heheh

🐧anon

no problemo 🕵️ gotta help the homies out. everything in life is a jojo reference, even jesus.

oml nO wait I watched the whole HXH manga and know they split up I was just acting delusional 😭 and uGh I hope the manga gets finished one day... The creator has bad health-- wait a damn minute I can just manifest his health back wtf am I sayin' 🧐

PFFFTTT what a wild read— and oh god no don't even talk about final destination to me, I cannot drive on the freeway normally sometimes bc of that shit, everytime I see a truck with like oversized loads (especially the fuckers with the big ass steel poles on the back of them) I always get chills, even though I know nothing is gonna happen to me cause I said so 🧍

toji didn't even remember he had son.... deadbeat dad type beat. yuta and rika deserve better ngl

isabella and that other maid... they are nightmare fuel. and yes!!!!!! I will absolutely give it another chance for the adorable tiger boy with the fruity little haircut!!! bingeing anime in yer waitin' room??? bruh that's literally so big brain wtf I low-key wanna shift to all my favorite animes one of these days 🕵️ but I have this underlying worry about the version of myself being left behind to do my dirty work lmfao

also- katekyo hitman reborn! is super good, but I will say that I have been rewatchin' it for a sense of nostalgia on and off whenever I have time and god the first like--- 20 episodes are fuckin' cringe but the main character's awakenin' is satisfying 😭 he's like the og deku

I have no idea if all the eps have been posted for zom 100 !!!! I will check for you today if I remember--- I haven't had time to check after watching like the first three episodes on crunchyroll—

OooOo an anime with a strong female lead!?!?! I would absolutely eat that shit up oml gobble gobble gobble— ew that plot sounds cringey. man, I really want an anime with a stoic, underestimated female lead whos like majorly asexual... wait 🧍 hold on, I basically just described saiki k... I NEED A FULL THIRD SEASON OF THE DISASTROUS LIFE OF SAIKI K.

First time finishing HxH

I binged the end of the Chimera Ant arc to the end of the series. I think I cried a total of 6 times. It was such an emotional roller coaster. When I realized that was the end of the entire show, I just felt empty inside.

I just need more content.

Whelp. Time to fill that void with writing fanfiction!

[decembercamiecherries]

Hi hi! First of all, I'm sorry, I don't know how to make paragraphs in asks on tumblr T_T welp. I just wanted to say thank you <3 I found 'Waiting on You' through your summary of chapter 20 and I am so so glad I clicked. I'm watching HxH for the first time and forced myself to stop before the Chimera ant arc because I'm too invested and couldn't take the angst after binge watching, buuuut now i'm HxH deprived lol. Thanks to your fic though, I'm able to enjoy HxH without spoiling myself to (1/3)

This is such a kind and wonderful ask to get I'm so touched, thank you!!! I'm so glad you clicked on my fic too, I can't tell you how much it means to me that you've enjoyed the story and my writing! I totally understand the need to take a break from the Chimera Ant arc - when I finished hxh I actually had to step away from anything to do with the series for like a month to recover haha! It's so good to hear that this fic was able to provide you with the hxh content you wanted without spoiling too much for you ^-^ I'm really happy I picked this fic up and finished it also. It's been a joy to share with the hxh fandom and to receive such amazing reviews like yours <3 Thank you so so soooooooo much for reading my fic and sending me this ask!!! I hope you enjoy the last chapter of Waiting on You once it's posted on Sunday!

[yagamisdiary]

i just suddenly remembered…did u ever end up finishing hxh or nah LMAO tb to summer when i first started watching it damn

no </3 i’m sorry y’all i swear i’ll finish it one day but rn i’m in my modern family era so i’m binging that

[tobirama-seppuku]

Okay I finished hxh. Final thoughts under the cut. Tw for lots of blood and anime death gifs

I'm not fully satisfied w the ending. I think they meant to continue the series for much longer.

I mean, Gon and Killua's stories were wrapped up beautifully--I fucking love Alluka actually she has an adorable relationship with her brother, glad she's no longer a Fucking Prisoner--they don't need anything else, they were wrapped up perfectly. Even if I still think Gon should've punched the shit out of Ging that boy needs to APOLOGIZE for abandoning his son actually. But. I feel like. They could've done more with Kurapika and Leorio, you know? Especially Leorio. Comic relief character aside I think they could've given him an actual arc rather than him being stuck as a really good conman who knows his way around financial roadblocks with a heartwarming backstory. I think Kurapika's story could've been continued as well, with the Phantom Troupe still very much alive and wreaking havoc and his ultimate goal of collecting his clan's remains being continued offscreen, his friends unable to contact him because of his tunnel vision. They set up so much right before the ending that I think they truly had the potential to keep it going naturally for longer! Like, it hadn't reached the point of series burnout, I don't think. Yes, it REALLY FUCKING DRAGGED at parts, god I never want to binge this again purely because of the chimera ant arc being so fucking extended, but there are some really good parts of this series that I'd love to recommend people watch for if it weren't for the times where it lost its speed. You want to tell me that like 20 episodes in the ant arc were condensed into 3 in-universe minutes? Fuck offffff. But like. Ugh. Maybe it's just because I watched the remaster instead of the original 144p version made forever ago but there was still things I believe they could have done

Its biggest strength to me was that it made psychology actually work with the story. They understand the concept of mental fortitude and the human being's mental limits. There were several very real and very visceral breakdowns onscreen, human anguish and terror beautifully conveyed in a way a lot of series can't replicate while having a fucking magic system like this one. There were some scenes that were so gut-wrenching I really broke out in a sweat. It's captivating. I mean, the effect really isn't there if you haven't watched the series itself but it REALLY squeezes your heart because this is a fucking 12yo kid who doesn't know what to fucking do to help his friend in such a deep pit of despair and vitriol he doesn't even resemble the same person anymore. It's awful, it's hard to watch, and it's so well done it's incredible

One thing I didn't get is how it got so morbid and serious at parts but came across as a feel-good family-friendly anime the rest of the time. There were parts that got so fucking real and horrific-- IT'S LIKE

NOT TO MENTION child neglect and abandonment, selling human parts on the black market, cannibalism, mass human consumption, extreme poverty & capitalism, mafias & gangs, and the main character going so far beyond his physical limits that he turns into a burnt, mummified corpse on LIFE SUPPORT AT AGE 12

There are onscreen deaths the likes of which are so disgusting it's impossible to imagine the pain of. The sound design makes you sick sometimes. People are turned into meatballs,

they're wrung to death with blood painting the walls,

they're shot like 10 times and eaten piece by piece by inhuman creatures to where all that's left is a puddle of blood on the ground,

their heads are crushed with this sick, disgusting crunching sound that makes you flinch,

heads are removed every other fight scene,

necks are snapped faster and more often than you can humanly process,

and one character got punched in the face until their skull was so caved in it was actually literally just a puddle of blood splattered on the ground which I can't even FIND A GIF OF because it's such a low point for Gon that the community doesn't want to acknowledge it happened. He attributed to one of the most gruesome deaths in the series because he was so blinded by rage that he verged on inhuman. It was awful.

Maybe I'm just bitching because my binge is over idk but I really feel like there was meant to be more content or that the writers were throttled in what they could show and say. I feel like they were held back from going all of the way in either direction, maybe because the main characters were such young kids that they would inevitably attract a young audience, and didn't want backlash from parents. It's hard to pinpoint but someone decided not to go all-out and it caused this effect where it gets so close to rated R but just barely skims by because the dialogue is simple due to it being that of tweens and teens. It's almost fascinating. Idk but that concludes my thoughts on the whole thing

Review of sorts lol

Ok, finished the gay Joey anime! ...Very very fast lmao

What to say, what to say...

Um, ok, the happiest I felt was hearing Joey's voice. I dont hear it in anything. In anything new, anyway. I rewatch YGO a lot, both dub and sub, mixed, random, all Joey's are Joey, even when they're Jounouchi

So his voice in anything is also Joey... well, unless he does a really creepy role. But I expect that with Kaiba's voice lmao or at least I used to. Dudes been getting only hot man roles lately, literally has the voice women (and men no joke) are drooling over

Every single one of them is about Kaiba's voice. He absolutely skyrocketed thanks to Jujutsu Kaisen

But, like I said, my boy Joey and his VA aren't getting any roles at all.

So him getting a lead character role was very pleasant for me. Making it a gay leading role was a huge bonus. It came out in 2018 and then the movie in 2021, during the years I didn't watch anime, but I would have fangirled like fuck if I'd been watching it weekly like I used to watch anime

Outside of that... It's pretty, most of the time. The animation can be quite inconsistent, but for the most part its a good looking anime. The movie was very pretty, the budget was upped.

Now, here's the thing. There was nothing particularly special about this BL story-wise. In fact, its very run of the mill. If you've seen or read enough BL, there are absolutely no surprises here. Nothing unexpected. Its just that this one is about actors. Actually I think Love Stage might have also been about actors... I cant fully remember. But you could replace the actors with musicians, or authors, or doctors. And you will get the same story. My fave of these run of the mill BL's is Gravitation, an old classic. This one tops it for me not only due to nostalgia, but I still sing "Spicy Marmalade" from the show all the time. It has the tuuuunes. And comedy.

But yeah, they're basically all just... general romance stories. Where there's no actual plot. And I'm the worst at judging this stuff bc romance as a genre is not for me. I've made posts about how I like romance as a side genre. I prefer an action series with a side case of romance. Like, if you take Jujutsu Kaisen, its purely action, no romance. But....... there eventually could be? It happened in HxH, and created a huge OTP for me. That's my thing.

Strictly romance animes, whether gay or straight, usually fall flat on me. The straight one's I'll give props to tho are Skip Beat and Kamisama with his pretty ass Bakura face

Actually Joey's voice was in this anime, he was an annoyed gay man lmao but again, these are old

So yeah, I cant judge the story. Judging from the comments, and I'm assuming 99% of them were from female fans, or fujoshis as they are called, it was well liked.

I gave it a 7 like I do with all of these types of romance animes that dont have something truly outstanding happen but aren't bad and are quite rewatchable. I did like when they went to Spain! It was just... v pretty.

There is, ofc, problematic stereotypical yaoi moments. Where would these generic stories be without them? Finding a pure, BL story is quite hard. Doukyuusei and Given are what I would consider to be non-stereotypical, if anyone wanted to compare. Both of those are lovely

But yeah, I had an enjoyable day binging the fuck out of it, which means I have a lot of work to catch up on! I did this to myself

Eh, what can ya do

[kawouwu]

Read/watchlist for Sept onwards (when I get my computer back from the repairs shop)

homestuck reread bc someone on my dash is reading it for the 1st time and it's making me nostalgic

one piece reread and catch up bc my friend is writing meta to me and I don't remember jack abt it

i had more on my to watch/read but since this is gonna take me till December I'm gonna stop here lol

[miyaur]

Niceeeee!

I’m just sleeping and playing all day tbh cause I’ve got 0 will to study so… yeah.

Speaking of which! U got any suggestion as for watchlist?

Kinda finished the series I wanted to see

🐈‍⬛

oo for me im just binging alot of anime on netflix and going through valorant / hsr tip videos while i write or play, i may have exams next week but 0 will to study and just using stock knowledge, for anime im currently watching kny/demon slayer, oshi ko no, komi cant communicate, aand rewatched hxh again, the rest of my recommended stuff would be horror, im a big fan of the jigsaw movies, i dont recommend it if you arent fond of gore!! not that i like gore but im okay with watching it, other horror/mystery movies ive watched: come play, the circle, i forgot the rest | animes i love: spy x family, romantic killer, assasination classroom, and im currently watching jjk

[theheightofdishonor]

what did you think of jjk after finishing the manga?

hmm, it was pretty good. Good worldbuilding, good characters, I would say the flash back sequences were a bit long for my taste, but im prejudiced against long backstories away from the plot because they bore me.

The Shibuya arc gave me deja vu to hxh's Chimera Arc at times and I think it's where the hxh influences are most obvious. I had to pause at some point to figure out if the mangaka's admitted to being a fan of togashi (he has btw).

What else? I think with the anime, i liked the main trio a fair amount but after reading the manga, i'm actually less attached to them? Which isn't a bad thing per say, just interesting ig.

If I had to rank favourite characters, it'd go gojo,maki,nobara in that order. (also can we talk about maki for a second?????because asdfghjkl) I Get everyone's thing with Gojo now when i didn't really in the anime. Actually that goes for most of them, i understand fandom's choices to lust over the characters they do more that i have better context for it.

Oh, Gojo/Getou gave me younger Magneto/Professor X vibes though less so after we find out who we think is Getou isn't actually him.

Anyways, I'll probably be binging it every couple months rather than keeping up with it daily and i'm interested to see the direction it's going in

[omegahime]

YOU WATCH HXH 🥲🥲🥲🥲 omg im watching it and i just finished chimera ant arc!!

also may i be 🫶🏻 anon?

YESSSSS I LOVE IT SO MUCHHH i binged it in literally like 3 days nsnshdks chimera ant was PAINFUL THO we’re troopers for making it through

also sure ! <3

[kalofi]

you change between such wildly different interests seemingly so often and its inspiring

pls its so exhausting. i’m having a blast tho

[chaisshitposts]

I RELATE SO MUCH WITH THE JJBA ARTSTYLE BUT IT WAS WORTH IT

hxh is soooo good oml but i still can't get over gon and killua separating🫠 i genuinely had one of the weirdest impressions on kny when i saw the wisteria house scene of inosuke, zenitsu, tanjiro, and nezuko chasing each other💀💀 it still hurts cuz you realize kny is going to end soon😭

i still haven't watched jjk s2 yet, waiting for it to be completed until i can binge watch it! absolutely gonna cry cuz i know it's gonna destroy me when it's completed but all's okay as long as i can see yuta hihihi

LET'S BE NERDS TOGETHER

my fav animes are the promised neverland (i'm so sad that they didn't follow the manga for s2😭😭 i didn't see my fav characters animated :c), the apothecary diaries, bungo stray dogs, and moriarty the patriot! i'm obsessed with detectives and animes with smart characters ngl (heck even the books i buy are murder mystery genres lmao)

question: what is the first anime you watched?? Mine is ranma 1/2!

🐧anon

UGH ABSOLUTELY, NOW I TRULY UNDERSTAND THE JOJO REFERENCES !!! and no those two have never separated idk what you're talkin' about 🧍 and ayo... THAT was the weirdest impression you had??? Not the first episode of absolute CARNAGE of tanjiro's family??!?!? understandable. and bruh ik, I need to buy the fuckin' manga but I don't want it to end, my cousin bought all the mangas and finished it and oml 😭 !!!!!! I can't wait to watch s2 of JJK, I'm tryna see scrunkly man toji in all his animated glory, even tho I hate his English dub voice 🧍 I think dio fits him tho... and oOOh a yuta fan 🤭 yuta is such a sweetie baby pie who'd prolly kick my ass if I crossed him

YES !!! NERDS UNITE 🫡🫡🫡

promised neverland... I definitely tried to watch it but god it was way too eerie for me and that's comin' from someone who watched attack on titan and some other messed up junk. I've only heard of one of those!!! bungou stray dogs, I never finished it despite the pretty character designs ☹️ might give it another try if I remember— and omg ranma!!!! I know that one hehehehe my first anime was katekyo hitman reborn! it got me into anime in the first place and created a deep love I have for super weak protagonists who secretly have hidden powers within them or they appear weak and people often underestimate them until it's too late. I dunno what it is about the badass feelin' it gives but it's like a shot of caffeine

are ya watchin' anything currently or have finished anything? :D personally I just finished mashle: magic and muscles!!! I'm excited for the next season tbh OH and I am also watching zom 100 and it's actually pretty good !!! a lil' depressin' but still a very intriguing plot

[s1lver-soul]

I WANT TO REWATCH AOT SOOOOOOOO BAD

[surprisebitch]

me: damn it’s almost 1 am. just one more episode then i’ll go to bed

Hunter X Hunter: “Greed Island? off to Yorknew city where we meet Leorio and Kurapika”
