#it moves at a slower pace but like not in a Bad Shounen way#in a tone and character building way#that added arc in the hunter exam where they have to escape the island before the storm kills them?? brilliant#it feels like it should be filler but it’s actually so big for kurapika and so many other minor characters?! and ponzu/pokkle cuteness?!!#also yeah kurapika and leorio feel so much gayer ngl. i can’t even point to any specific changes i just know it#gon…… gon my friend gon…… he’s one of my favorite characters ever honestly#rewatching hunter exam with the hindsight of having seen chimera ant arc is. crazy.#so many seeds planted of neuroticisms and obsessions and flaws for gon#it’s crazy that the manga was only on yorknew with this show started because the foreshadowing is fucking crazy#like i remember being like ‘okay but there is something actually wrong with this child’ on my first watch but like. holy shit.#also hisoka’s nen being described as like.. pure unadulterated bloodlust. because they have no explaination for it otherwise#and just in general his presentation oh my god… literally gave me chills i fucking hate him !!!!!!!! (lying unfortunately)#but yeah. crazy how truly offputting and unhinged gon comes across as from the very beginning everything makes sense#like i already Knew That but like on a rewatch it’s mindblowing really what an incredible character he is#hxh#frogs.txt
