When all the best parts of the original series turn out to have been filler, that doesn't say much for the source material.
The manga isn’t as good as you thought it was because it didn’t have Hisoka and Kurapica’s skirmish? What else did you miss in the new anime? Leorio taking the bus? I’m sure that’s a moment to remember… Or a woundless Hisoka attracting butterflies that follow the scent of blood?

Togashi is recognized by the most impartial manga fans as the most talented mangaka working for shonen jump. Yes, even above Oda. He wrote YYH, and his now on his second successful manga. You think a guy like that would write something that isn't good? ”. It’s true that talent comes with a prize, and that’s that Togashi is lazy as fuck… reason why he’s always taking breaks. But even through he treats his fans like shit, everytime a volume comes out, he makes tons of money. The sales of HxH are better than bleach and other mainstream (which HxH isn't) mangas.
