EDIT: oh wait, I just looked at the 2ch copy pasta in the link. Here's the (supposed) staff listing: Director: Kawajiri Yoshiaki Assistant Director: Masuhara Mitsuyuki Series Composition: Hanada Jukki Character Design: Minowa Yutaka Chief Animation Director: Abe Hisashi, Miyamae Shinichi Music: Ike Yoshihiro Animation Production: Madhouse Holy shit... It will also apparently air at 9am Sundays. Competing with Toriko? Or is Toriko being canned on Fuji TV or being moved to a different slot?

As soon as I think about tapering my anime indulgence I gotta here cool $hit like this...
My only hope and or potential gripe is if they draw the new series in the same Yugioh-esque style of the previous final season...The earlier seasons were super gritty, which was great...The last season, while still entertaining, was more of a kiddie card game...I hope this new series will embrace the darker tone of the first seasons...

^The second season when Kurapica turns...I'd put that up against anything in shonen-fighter...Yu Yu Hakusho is still better IMO for varying reasons (One being it has perhaps the greatest villain of alltime in Shinobu Sensui--who it seems Geinen Ryodan's character design was lifted from in some ways--the other reason being it actually concludes), but Kurapica vs. the Spiders arc had some of my biggest holy $hit moments in all my shonen watching days...In terms of following and incorporating a very strict power-level based system...It has no rival (Maybe Naruto, but Naruto's chakra based system can never be explained in as exquisite fashion as the Nen-system, nevermind the fact that the strictness to that system disappears for shonen-coolness) ...

If anything, this news makes me hopeful the ant arc will come to a close soon in the manga, perhaps even during Togashi's next run starting next month.
Not sure I'll watch the new anime as I didn't like the ant arc that much. It will at the very least be worth watching to finally see that story decently drawn. About half of the ant arc consisted of scribbles in the manga (thankfully it's gotten better lately).

I find it hard to believe that it is replacing Toriko. That timeslot has long been held by Toei Animation for the past two decades. In fact, I don't believe that a non-Toei anime has ever aired on there since Fuji TV started using it for anime.

^Different shows have different concepts and different prisms to achieve their vision...HxH was for more diverse and complex in it's adventurous nature and worldview...And again it's power based nen system is probably the best explanation for the usage of abilities in all of shonen-fighter, but YuYu hakusho was more than just the many epic fights...It was one of the most expressive shonen-animes of all time...It's expressionism just can't be rivaled IMO, and the revelation that the descendant of the most powerful demon was the hero of mankind while the chosen hero of humanity fought for the realm of the demons was one of the most shocking turnabouts in the genre's history...It's something that's never been done in shonen-fighter (Well unless BLEACH tries to steal it one day)...
Now you take this character who was meant to be a protector of the human world and have him turn on mankind in such a sharp almost divine way and you have one of the most compelling showdowns of ideals in this genre...HxH while a great journey, never had that layer of involving all of humanity... I'd say YuYu is a big step up from a show that, while I loved, it's final impression is that of Noah Kaiba's CG card game world in yugioh...Chapter Black has that beat IMO... I do hope this new show isn't as upbeat and aesthetically pleasing as the last series and OVA...HxH is best with the darker tone...

Airs on Nippon TV at 10:55am on October 2nd. Confirms Madhouse is the production studio as well. The rumors were more or less spot on then, with the only difference being the rumors had 9am rather than 11am, which isn't that big a difference. This ups the chances of the rumored staff being correct as well. EDIT: Officially confirmed to be a complete remake. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/inte...ory-from-start Real staff listing: http://www.madhouse.co.jp/news/news_...#news2011_0802 Director: Kohjina Hiroshi (Rainbow) Series Composition: Maekawa Atsushi (Prince of Tennis, Bakugan) Character Design: Yoshimatsu Takahiro (Kuruneko, Slayers Great, Slayers Return, Supernatural, Trigun, Nyanpire) Producer: Nakatani Toshio (Death Note, NANA, Kaiji)
