When the new series gets around to the episodes in the future, I'll go into more detail. But there are quite a few character traits significantly different present in the anime. Gon's flaws are overlooked and treated too gently by Furuhashi; he makes Gon an inherently good (and flawless) kid while solely attributing his failures to his disadvantage as an eleven-year-old. Killua is socially retarded and consistently cold (pay attention to the differences in how Gon and Killua become friends; Gon has to work to get Killua's name in the first anime, but Killua is the first to introduce himself to Gon in the manga). There are more, but I'd have to watch the episodes again to remember them all.
