I'm expecting this series will also slow down once it passes the point the old series ended as well, but that's a lot of great stuff in the meantime that's going to be heavily edited.
Yeah that just shows that they consider people who are already familiar with Hunter X Hunter as a big part of their target audience. Keeping that in mind, speeding up the pace of this portion of the story is a good compromise.
