Was glad last weekend to see a few of us get talking last weekend in the One Piece thread. Lemmy is way too dead when it comes to anime and manga talk. So let's see what we need to be talking about.

What have you been watching, what is it, and why do you think it's worth watching?

I recently finished Spy Family, which I really loved, and then I started another rewatch of Hunter X Hunter and I only have about 20 episodes left. I realized at some point that the guy who wrote it also wrote YuYu Hakusho, another favorite of mine, so I started a rewatch of that too.

My One Piece first watch has been on pause for a bit. I did a hard grind all the way to Dressrosa but I haven’t started the arc yet because I was getting burned out

    Are you watching the 2011 version of HxH?

    I'll probably try out the '90s anime for my next rewatch, since I've watched the new one five times by now.

    Yeah the 2011 version with the Greed Island, Chimera Ants, and Hunter Association Election arcs. I’ve never seen the older one. I love the old school animations but it only goes up to Yorknew City and the Underground Auction arc so I’ve never actually taken the time to see how different it is even though this is probably my 5th watch of the 2011 version

    I didn't know the HxH guy was the YYH guy. I'll have to watch YYH all the way through sometime then. I caught pieces on Cartoon Network in the day, but never saw it all the way through.

    Spy Family has been a lot of fun, though it's gotten kinda serious at the present point of the manga. If you read manga, Sakamoto Days has a similar but slightly more serious feel.

    Yeah I was surprised as well. Watching YYH again, the similarities are amusing. I like trying to guess the Nen types of the YYH characters. Yusuke has gotta be an emitter. I like to think Koenma showed him the spirit gun just to save him wasting time trying to figure out his own type. Kuwabara might be a transmuter or a conjuror depending on how his sword works. The show isn’t 100% consistent on whether he can drop it or not so who knows. Kurama is a manipulator for sure since he controls plants. Hiei might be an enhancer
