Prob not. That was too fancy to be a censor plus the official subs supports the animation. It's actual content. And showing arms getting ripped off and blood would elevate this to TV-MA in the US. Not happening imo as its too colorful. This is a 13+ title imo.

I liked how they handled Hisoka's entrance =03. If this was youtube, I'd make a "Thumbs up if you got excited why you saw Hisoka screw that random guy over", which would get a bunch of thumbs-up. A few things different from the orig anime, but certainly more consistent(the computer guy is a good example).
As far as the flowers thing, I don't think it's a big deal; I mean, he IS a magician. I can't see it being no different than "transforming" a person into an animal; it's supposed to be a magic trick. |

old anime > manga > new anime. And Hisoka's and Killua's seiyuu suck. Ichijou from Kaiji is being cast to every major role nowadays it seems (Fate/Zero + HxH) and while he's not bad he's far from getting close to Hiroki Takahashi. |

They did a good job for ep 3. Well , there's still a "censorship" but this one is better than before. So it's a good thing. Still need blood after.
Another things , they introduced Tonpa very well , faithful to the manga. Same for Kirua & the first examinator. But i'm looking for more Hisoka's voice , currently i prefer the first. And i don't like all the colors , HxH is darker. Otherwise , hope they'll do great for after , one of my best part. And GI's look. |

HxH TV ratings so far:
Ep 1: 4.4% Ep 2: 3.8% Ep 3: 4.0% HxH seems to be doing good. It had a bit of a drop from 4.4(1st ep) to 3.8 in the 2nd ep. But it's gone back up to 4.0 for the 3rd ep. With those ratings the series may go on for quite awhile. It's doing better all recent Shonen Jump anime adaptations except for that one ep Beelzebub recently got 3.9 which beat ep 2 HxH, Madhouse should be happy with the ratings HxH is getting right now. |

Damn.. a good Hisoka woulda let most of my nitpickings disappear, maybe he'll do better later, especially with his laugh, but for now, so sad.. I just imagined his voice much more whimsical, yet filled with madness. His voice now just seemed like your everyday killer, which he is far from. And the little guitar music in his introduction, I dono, maybe it'll grow on me, but just didn't fit too well. HxH broke away from the mold of typical shonens, by taking expectations, and turning them on their head and especially in the Anime the voices play a big role on your impressions on those characters. Just disappointing. They also talk about the atmosphere and the people there being completely different. But it's all so brightly lit.. I'm harsh, but, oh well. I don't have my hopes that it'll get much better, seeing as how I loved the manga and original anime, but will still stick with it. Last edited by Tsukou; 2011-10-19 at 15:25. |

Ep 3
Hisokaaa~ I can't believe Daisuke Namikawa (Fai, Prince Baka) is voicing him! I don't mind a new version with deep voice and red hair. Killua on the other hand... I'm really attached to his aloof attitude and past VA, not this cheerful one. Also, I dislike the BGM. I preferred the 1999 one (different interpretion of Kaze to Uta melody). >_<;; But I still love HxH!! he sotry is just so good.

As Toto y Moi showed in his comparison review, that's something to be chalked up to the first anime's portrayal of Killua's character in the initial stages of the Hunter Exam, rather than the voice actors' performances. Mariya Ise is perfectly capable of sounding aloof, but that's not what the character originally acted like in the manga.

Speaking of the new cast, it seems Aya Hirano will join the crew as Menchi. Along with Masaya Matsukaze as "Gittarackur".
Source: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/inte...sukaze-to-cast Both sound like good picks to me. Plus I think the latter is criminally underexposed so it's nice to see him landing a decently prominent role. |
