It's kinda strange how the tone in HxH changes so dramatically once we hit the shin york arc (and basically have a protagonist switch). I think the new OP is fine and pretty in tune with the first op of the 1999 HxH, since it gives the fresh feeling of adventure that the first part is all about.
Edit: just saw the first episode. Animation is actually pretty smooth. Not a fan of the ending, at all. Kurapica sounds more feminine than he did in the 1999 version, and his eyes aren't green.
The pace is pretty good; seems like they want to get to the meat of the story fast.
