Thoughts: When I was still in grade school, I used to watch anime shows aired in a TV station ever afternoon. That includes HxH. From back then, this anime was one of the best anime. From the idea of the plot to the animation. It was one of the favorites of my mom. Yes, My parents were anime fans back then that's why I am here now in this fandom. Anyway, that time I was not able to understand the full story cause I haven't watched the whole series. Watching this anime in it's new version is a good idea after all. The characters are well-built. Gon and Killua has the best friendship award. This anime involves deep connection through friends and family so it somehow touched my heart. 

Their powers were really thought about by the producer and the tactics were really planned. It was a great anime. The only thing that it made me bored is when waiting for a fight scene to come and when a fight scene came it lasted just a couple of minutes. But that was one of the things that made me stay for watching the whole series. It makes me hooked up every episode.

I intend not to post Gon's power cause it's a major spoiler.

Animation: 10/10
If you are going to compare the old version of this anime to the new one, of course the 2011 version was better (obviously). I am too observant when it comes to animation and this anime has my taste. That made me say that this is one of the best anime in history. My favorite fight scene was with Chairman Netero and Meruem. It was superb to the point that I was screaming "WOAAAAAAAH!!!" in the whole fight scene. beside from the animation of course the clashing of their ultimate powers is overwhelming.

Soundtrack: 10/10
YES!! YEEEESSSS! I love the soundtrack of this anime. It fits perfectly with the scenes. If the producer wants you to be tensed along with the situation in the episode, the music makes you feel tensed. The background music somehow manipulating your emotions or feels as you watch the series.

Overall: 10/10
I would recommend this anime to anyone. But ofcourse this anime is not fit with kids because of it's some semi gore/ bloody scenes in the anime. Besides on that this anime is perfect!
