Wow, can't believe i've been missing out on a remake of this. Downside of never visiting General Anime anymore. Best news since i heard about the Berserk remake. I'm more excited about this remake then i was about FMA:B.

Well the sushi round was basically useless. Only thing it was good for was to display how Hanzo is bad at keeping secrets and his cool. And a part of that got baked in to the pig roast part instead. Also in the original Bansho got suplexed by the wrestler which i didn't like at all. He's a Hunter. Non of these wannabes should even get close to touching him except Killua, Hanzo, Hisoka and anyone else who is on a similar level. So i was happy that the wrestler got bitch slapped all over the courtyard. Good change IMO.

Like most said, changing Hisoka's swamp scene sucked. But changing the first examiners movements however was a success IMO. Never liked that "take half meter steps very slowly and still outrun everyone" style. This was both a little humorous and it showed how superior he was to the others. I also liked that they cut away Leorio failing and getting trapped by Tompa. In the old series i never felt like Leorio should have made it as far as he did. This way he doesn't come of as a complete loser that should have failed the first exam. I did not approve of changing Neteros looks either. I was surprised that they cut out Anita. Was that a filler? If so that was a good filler. Was a little sad they cut it out. I didn't start reading the manga until Greed Island so i only have the first anime to refer to.

As for the VA's. Nothing was bad so far except one. Hisoka. Damn it makes me cry just hearing him. Leorio was actually good from the start, and Gon, Killua and Kurapica just needed some time. When i was done with episode 8 i didn't even think about it anymore. Can still sound a little off but nothing that makes me clinch my teeth.

BTW is there anyone in here that hasn't seen the original series or read the manga? Saw that some people was afraid they would spoil. Not that i plan on spoiling but it seems unnecessary if everyone has seen or read HxH before to keep up the charade.
