I'm rewatching Hunter x Hunter (watched a good portion of it when I was pretty small), and I am pleased to conclude yet again that I only enjoy my favorite anime more as I age. I have more developed taste and more literacy to appreciate my media with. The new delights far outweigh the slight fading of some of the other aspects that used to draw me in.

#delicious. absolutely delicious #for instance I am less *viscerally* fascinated by Killua's cool factor now. but I have way more interest in his psychology #I enjoy Gon as a comedic character more now AND I'm picking up more on the slow-burn horror of his transformation into something dangerous #I cringe more at the violence but I also have more ThoughtsTM about heroism and tournament-based story patterns so that balances out #overall I am actually enjoying this show way more now #(and I enjoyed it as a kid too!! it was just that I pretty much only was interested in the Cool Factor at the time) #although I was surprised and horrified to realize that Hisoka is a predator. did not pick up on that as a child and thank goodness #hunterxhunterblogging #just gonna continue my anime blogging tagging conventions I think #probably won't post much hxh at all but I had Thoughts tonight !
