Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 

 

There was a point in time in the past where I was looking around for another manga to read. As I had money to spend on manga and figured I would get to it eventually. I actually have the first four volumes of Hunter x Hunter. I finally have gotten some time to read Hunter x Hunter Vol 1. Thus far I am still on the fence concerning this manga series. I also know I am getting caught up on Shield Hero so I will need to pivot to something in the future.

There will be spoilers in my review of the Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 manga book. Gon is a country boy in this fantasy world where he is raised by his aunt. His father is a famous hunter and Gon wants to follow in his footsteps. So Gon leaves home in Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 to take the hunters examination test. Very few people even make it to the test. Let alone pass it. Numerous characters come back every year to take the test again and again.

Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 contains chapters one through eight. The cost of Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 was $9.99. I feel like this manga book is a bit shorter and lighter in terms of content than some of the other ones I read. Hunters must be able to discern true intent in this fantasy world. For example something might look like a human but actually be a monster in disguise. Can you tell the difference.

The issues families can have with Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 are violence, bad language, false gods, and more. There are numerous characters that are killed by monsters in Hunter x Hunter Vol 1. I suppose it is magical beasts in Hunter x Hunter Vol 1. To me they are monsters. There are some crazy odd animals in Hunter x Hunter Vol 1. I tip my hat to the creator for that level of creativity.

I am honestly not a big fan of the art in Hunter x Hunter Vol 1. To me it is not as good as many of the other manga books I have read. Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 feels like Dragon Ball art to me. I am talking about the original and first Dragon Ball as well. The art in Hunter x Hunter Vol 1 is not so bad that I want to stop reading it. I feel like the Hunter x Hunter franchise would make a really good role playing video game.
