Banned. I liked Greed Island, but I also thought it was kind of weird and out of place. The villain and her are both pretty boring. Nothing sexually just talking. While it had a lot of uninteresting ants, there were still more interesting ants than Phantom Troupe members and the cast of protagonists was a lot more enjoyable to watch. Not to mention that HxH is definitely more "lets put a camera on this kid and see how he interacts with this world", than "lets see this kid accomplish his goals". I think Genthru's role overall is to reveal things about Gon. Same goes for Killua and his Hatsu. It was produced and sold by Marilyn Inc. Intended for the exclusive use of Hunters, its 5.8 billion price tag is the highest ever for any video game; there were 20,000 pre-orders for only 100 copies.

It's placement is hardly it's fault or is it valid point in criticism. Oct 25, 2017 22,814. Amana (アマナ) was a infamous female game player on Greed Island, and she is also a part of Team Asta. On the other hand, Biscuit is fairly well liked by most the fandom, fans in general seemed to enjoy at least some of the fun times and the love for the dodgeball match is pretty unanimous. The action is still great and there is a lot of it. Zonic. What is HxH's plot? I love the greed island arc i found it fun and relaxing not boring. Always make that mistake. But them going around collecting cards is so boring... zzzzz. Little does he know that the crossing is part of the test. Greed island and Hunter exam are like a 6 at best. Not only does GI has the displeasure of being sandwiched being 2 of the most critically acclaimed arcs in the series thus far, but GI could be summed up as a bullshit training arc with grossly underused lore. Nov 12, 2017 #6,002 Time to watch my Bebop Blu-ray . I guess Greed Island arc like a lot of people here. The Greed Island Arc is one of the most exciting ones in the anime; it involves Gon and Killua's adventures on Greed Island, the game invented by his father, Ging, and a group of his friends. In the Phantom Troupe/Yorknew City arc, the only … After its initial sale, the game disappeared from the market. I watched HxH with a friend and we both were bored by this arc and just wanted it to be over. The actual game arc itself was dreadful, pathetic, bloated, uninteresting, lackadaisical in terms of creativity and mechanics, and while it does serve as a training arc in a way, as well as show hints of who Ging was as a person, man the pacing and narrative was rough. Oct 25, 2017 17,694. On my first watch of the series I liked more than Yorknew City that change in future viewings tho but I still love GI. The end of Greed Island and the Razor battle were great. 2.

Along with being the best arc, it is also the… Also there is literally nothing similar between it and Yu-Gi-Oh besides the fact that there are cards. I loved how Killua was all about meeting Aunt Mito. Feel free to follow C.J on Twitter @SeaJayMaffris Gon and Killua go to the Southernpiece Auction for Greed Island. Offline ... been anti-stream and whilst CR somehow after all these years coaxed One Piece outta them it was just for most recent arc. Honestly, I keep thinking the main reason it gets so much shit is because it's right between the two arcs that are considered best and most drama-filled. Member. In the Greed Island arc and at the beginning of the Chimera Ant arc he wears the Paladin’s Necklace, a Greed Island card with the ability to purge any external effects to a card the wearer is holding. I believe the purposes of the Greed Island arc were: Training Gon to become stronger. Others didn't enjoy having a whole arc inside a game because other than getting Gon and Killua stronger it doesn't advance the plot all that much but I thought the actual gameplaying was fun and engaging. Only arcs 8/10or higher are Yorknew and Chimera ant >All villains are likable Not true with greed island and the Dark continent expedition. Hello, gaming and anime fans! Most series, though not all, also fall into the action category, and focus on fighting. In fact, to me, it was the most upbeat arc of HxH. The good is mostly the cast. 1. Press J to jump to the feed. Zoldyk arc is like a 5. Genthru is a terrible villain and the worst main antagonist of HxH for a given arc. Gon searching for his father. The arc itself has some weaknesses, for me the most valid criticism is that it has arguably the least interesting villain Genthuru and besides Bisky I didn't find any of the characters introduced in this arc appealing. Several heartwarming scenes here. I truly like greed island. Readers and viewers think that after the Yorknew City arc, the quality of future arcs will be on par with the Yorknew City arc or probably even higher. I enjoyed the Dodge ball match and Biscuit is an awesome character, but the arc overall was a drag. They expected Greed Island to be a badass arc like the Yorknew City arc. I feel if yorknew came after GI then GI arc would be seen in a better light but timeline wise that wouldn't be possible. First time watching Hunter and its really fun to watch but this arc is so boring. However, I don't think Genthru is a terrible villain, especially we're comparing him to Hisoka, Chrolla, Meruem, etc. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. Theres an argument to be made about any arc "advancing the plot". Munkus Beaver Registered User, ClubPA regular. Do people actually make that comparison?

I am not a fan of video-game based anime but this arc actually really grown onto me to the point that it became my favorite. Is Genthru, AKA the Bomber, the main villain of the arc? The Hunter Exam is tunnel-through-the-mountain boring! New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast, More posts from the HunterXHunter community. Which I think is unfair personally I liked the arc it's one of the most important arcs in the series with gon and killua mastering nen under bisky and introducing killua yoyos my favorite weapon in anime lol. The exam is just one fake out after another. To change the mood. After a brief run-in with Feitan and Phinks, the auction for Greed Island begins. So personal taste influences a lot. It's definitely a less tolerable training arc than Heavens Arena. Undoubtedly, the greatest arc in Hunter x Hunter is the Chimera Ant arc. The Big Bad of Greed Island was boring as dirt. Chimera ant arc is the best for me. After that came the ants, that I disliked. hxh arcs flip flop between being good and bad. Grexeno. I think people give GI flack because it comes right after Yorknew's anticlimactic ending and feels like a bit of a mood whiplash. 01) Greed Island took place after the Yorknew City arc. Gon lives on an island, so must travel by ship to the mainland. After the auction, they ask Battera and his assistant, Tsezguerra, if they could enter the game for him. How does the York Shin and Greed Island arcs of the new series compare to the first series/ovas? i had really fun with greed island really. I been seeing greed island arc get criticised a lot since I joined the community, people saying it's bad and boring, or it a rip off of yu-gi-oh. Nope, I liked the Greed Island arc. I also didn't like the Daily life arc in Katekyo Hitman Reborn!, it was just plain boring and the comedy was cringe. He gave us someone to root against and was a good first fighting opponent for Gon after he had developed the Jajanken. In 1988, Battera offered to buy the game for 17 billion and 50 billion for the clear data. fun night overall actually. The Greed Island arc of HxH is better than all of these . It was fun from start to finish. You also run into redundancies. The early stage of them finding a way to get into the game and the Killua Gon characterization moments were nice as well. "Rip off of Yu-Gi-Oh" is probably the dumbest criticism of it I've heard. C.J Maffris is an editorial writer for Toonamifaithful.com. Otherwise, if you're more of the fighting/racing/action guy or not a gamer at all, I'd imagine you'd find it uninteresting though. Few things I like from there, but the MOST the MOST that I like from the ant arc was the bad guy playing and talking with a girl. Not to mention Razor and that whole dodgeball game. It's number two on my HxH favorite arc list. Which is a shame, because I think the arc has a lot of good substance to it. Even I couldn't finish the 2nd season. While the two recap episodes are cleverly disguised, it still doesn't change the fact that they're recap episodes and thus have no value whatsoever unless a person doesn't have time to marathon the show and thus may forget important plot details. The Greed Island arc had some decent moments but it's not even close to the best arcs in HxH, Yorknew and Chimera ant arcs are FAR better for me. Though enjoyed by people of all genders and ages, its target demographic is boys, ages 12-18. lmao dark continent isn't even the current arc. There's just innocent joy and no wishy-washy feelings. going to be pretty great with Super entering its first actual arc, JoJo hitting it stride, and Greed Island coming to a close. Gon Freeces, while not terrible, isn't that interesting or complex of a main character. It gets painfully boring, has horrid pacing, terrible enemy designs(though greed island's villains didn't look too cool either to be fair) and bloated with too many characters. I believe Togashi intentionally made the Greed Island arc a bit lighthearted so that the readers and viewers would go nuts when they read or watch the Chimera Ant arc. The Greed Island arc is probably the one I re-watch the most out of all the arcs. it's the succession war/black whale arc. It's not my favorite arc and I do have some critiques of my own, but I definitely appreciated it. Still a good arc though. If you're an RPG guy like me, you'd find it verrryyyy interesting, as it plays with a lot of RPG tropes. Let's dive in. I believe this is one of the reasons why some readers and viewers were disappointed with the Greed Island arc. 3. Any form of entertainment, information, or discussion centered around the world of HxH is welcome here. On my first watch of the series I liked more than Yorknew City that change in future viewings tho but I still love GI. The foursome is back as well has their past masters with Wing and Zushi from the heaven's arena arc and Biscuit from greed island. Gon badly needed this arc since at the end of the Heavens Arena arc, he wanted to be much stronger so he could reach Hisoka's level. Nanika one is a 4 Election is 7 at best. If so, he's boring. Some people complain a lot about the extended focus on the training but I personally loved that. The perfect anime arc especially catered to you has finally dropped on Netflix! Cons: Greed Island arc is a bit of a downgrade from Yorknew City arc; collecting cards was a boring objective; Genthuru was a lackluster villain. Yeah, he was the weakest main villain in HxH, but he served his purpose well. Err... well maybe a little but it's important to Gon and Killua because they are training to master their Nen ability on that arc. They introduced 100+ cards and I just do not give a shit. Rather than attempt to directly obtain it, Gon and Killua planned to let someone else buy it and then enter the game for that client. After Greed Island Gon and Killua have to face the Chimaera ants creatures that can evolve like the animals they eat 8for examplem if they eat … Jan 7, 2018 #86 Skyless said: I liked it very much. Togashi wanted to show us that Nen's potential is limetless, it can be used with almost everything. Dean Musgrove / The Orange County Register via AP Strong Santa Ana winds in Chatsworth, Calif., blew across power lines causing them to arc and transformers to explode. However, … >SnK’s fanbase will die after the anime is over. i imagine this is kinda like how older readers felt back when they thought greed island would be the arc right after yorkshin, since greed island was their goal at that point. Yep GI arc usually wins as 'least favorite' HxH arcs polls. Also, HxH Greed Island question. All arcs have this goal in mind to varying degrees and arguably the one that has it in the foreground to the most extend is GI and the one that has it the most in the background is CA, so it advancing the plot or not is barely even an argument. I love the bomber and gon fight it's a big moment for gon in the series, Dodgeball game was awesome one of my favorite parts of the arc, New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast, More posts from the HunterXHunter community. This subreddit is dedicated to the Japanese manga and anime series Hunter X Hunter, written by Yoshihiro Togashi and adapted by Nippon Animation and Madhouse. This was a transitional volume, effectively setting up the Yorknew City arc while planting the seeds for the Greed Island arc down the line. December 2019. The enemies Gon and Killua fight are not at all interesting, and their character development seems to be focused on “power levels”, as nothing really meaningful happens to their “character”. No, it wasn't. The training moments with Biscuit weren't too hot either for me though I do understand their necessity. Just going to enjoy the rest of this arc while last. In other words, it is much more a world bulding and character driven series rather than a plot focused series. From what I remember those arcs had no filler at all and looked great. I been seeing greed island arc get criticised a lot since I joined the community, people saying it's bad and boring, or it a rip off of yu-gi-oh. it was a good detour but i much preferred the arcs with higher stakes and larger scale conflict, in that regard yorknew and chimera ant were definitely 10/10 I think the problem most people have with this arc is the villain. It sure is weird that this an arc that just decides, "You know, it'd be cool to just turn this show into Yu-Gi-Oh Online for a bit." Oct 25, 2017 1,052. I agree with you, but the dodgeball game and Gon vs Genthru are amazing though. I love the greed island arc i found it fun and relaxing not boring. Do you feel greed island gets unfair criticism or is the criticism deserved. No but compared to the excellent York New before it and the masterpiece Chimera Ant arc after it just kinda gets overshadowed.
