    I'm like seventeen episodes in and I still don't know why Four Eyes is the leader.

    To be fair, neither does he.

    I do like that he does the anime thing and pulls the best out of his squad, but he's just pretty one note most the time

    Is it just me or is the animation in that show really reminiscent of old, cheap anime?

    I mean, it's made by Toei and it's pretty in line with their other work IMO.

    I’m reading HxH for the first time and Greed Island is such a chore. Yorknew was good though.

    It’s honestly shocking how ugly Attack on Titan got after MAPPA took over. I know the character designs shifted closer to the manga (which is also hideous) but there are some moments that are genuinely like what the fuck, you really want to go with this? The overuse of CG doesn’t help either.

    anyway I like the ending. I get why a lot of people despise it. Seeing it animated somehow makes it feel less rushed but overall worse?

    whatever, anime should only be about girls starting cool bands

    I started it during Covid when everything shut down and I needed something new to check out. It was my first anime since I was a kid and got me back into the medium.

    Play the Yakuza series

    MY MAN!! Honestly loads of people praise that arc but it’s hands down the worst arc in HxH

    Maybe not worst but still bottom 3 for me. It’s just such a jarring shift after the Yorknew arc

    Hisoka playing volleyball is a gift.

    It definitely has its moments but the villains are super underwhelming

    Hisoka is one of the most interesting parts of HxH. Sucks we’ll probably never get his fight with Chrollo animated

    And yeah the penultimate dodgeball death match was a way better part of Greed Island than the final fight

    It’s a strange ending and I would have done it differently. Eren had never actually shown romantic feelings towards Mikasa before then, they didn’t really land on their feet with all the time stuff, it’s confusing on what things were Eren vs. what things were Ymir, the Ymir “love” thing (and how that connected to Mikasa) could have been fleshed out way more

    I feel like it would have been far more straightforward to simply have it as: Eren’s #1 goal was always freedom, both for himself and those he cared about - his family. First the hurdle to that was the titans, who he made his goal to destroy. Then when he found out about the outside world, he (in his mind) was left with no choice but to destroy them as well in order to save his family. Passing down the founding titan was not an option because it would have meant shortening the lives of his family. He was not doing it in a nationalist way to restore some grand empire like Floch, it was just purely out of personal, knowingly selfish desire to save the specific people he cared about. And since he still cared about all of them, he simply chose to not use the Founding titan to control them (ie leading them to lose their freedom) and let the cards fall where they may in the end
