You know, I reeeeally donīt get why HXH never became the most popular shounen series ... which it deserves/deserved to become. Why are Naruto or One Piece more popular? Makes no sense to me. HXH is shounen done right and done in perfection.

Or the pace, I think I remember the original is a tad slow paced.
Also, it's not very flashy with attack names and lights coming from everywhere with power over 9000.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
Yeah. HxH has basically no girls except one arc wonders. That must have also mattered in the popularity contest. HxH has interesting plots & world, good action & fights, worthy adversaries, quite solid development, but that only goes so far. If you want to aim for the top spot, you need to cover all the major bases. However, even if this isn't the top series, it's still better the mangaka rather did what he wanted and not calculated everything to artificially boost the popularity (like Bakuman teaches).
My heart sunk a little while reading that because I know just how true it is. *shakes head*
"You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

Because Ninjas and Pirates are more interesting concepts to base a series around that Hunters, which is basically just a catch-all for "guys with powers".
