Just finished catching up all 144 episodes of Hunter x Hunter 2011 over the last few days. Felt like the early stuff was too fast in the reboot, but once it hit original content it dragged out, especially late in the chimera ant arc. There were many times I'd click forward 20-30 seconds to skip re-hash or annoying wails by the royal guard members.

The current arc feels odd, almost forced, but I'll go with it.

Have you heard that it's down to the last 8 or so episodes? It ends after the Chairman election arc, which is after the Chimera ant arc. Reason for that is the mangaka decided to go on hiatus again, though the current manga arc is generally agreed upon as pretty good. Get ready for the conclusion of the Chimera ant arc to be boring and draggy as hell. The studio basically had no choice but to stretch it out to keep pace with the manga, which is sad. As a whole the series is still great.

What a cliffhanger in the latest Hunter episode.

So for the first time, I think I'll actually watch a currently airing anime: Grisaia no Kajitsu. The VN is one of my favorite VNs and while I know that while VN -> Anime adaptations usually suck, I'd like to see the anime be somewhat faithful to the VN. What people don't realize is that Grisaia is a trilogy and that Kajitsu is just the first part.

Anyone else going to watch Grisaia?

Re: Grisaia, I think this VN adaptation would be no different, sucky, I will stick to the VN.

Sword Art Oniline 2: From here on I would think it as the sucky part of the season for the 2nd cour of the anime, the first part was nice and rather refreshing though Kirito is such a dick in so many ways.

This season: Last season sucked so compared to this, Fall is gonna be so awesome. Like 2-3 seasons ago, this one has a lot of "travelling" type fantasy titles which is my favourite genre by far. Also the pilot for Fate/Stay Night is by Ufotable is so awesome in the technical aspect, they really might be the only studio to bring a game to reality in animation.
