Is it just me or HxH 2011 is more fast-paced than HxH 1999?

And those scenes from the old series that are not shown in the current one are actually filler scenes? If yes, IMO they did a great job back then on the fillers as they were great additions to the first anime version.
yes yes and yes

you should totally be watching Hunter X Hunter though. You said you liked Yu Yu Hakusho (I think?) and it's the same person who made this and it's like that except an overall better shonen series. And it's only at episode 15 so far.

I'm actually interested in watching a Sailor Moon-like show at some point. Partially because why not?, partially because it's another anime genre I've never seen much of before, and partially because it would be fantastic research for my fanfic meethinks. :p Any actual good reccommendations?
I took a look at HunterxHunter pictures on MAL...you serious? o__o I know it's not right to judge..but it doesn't look that cool, especially for a fighting shonen series

It's better than 90% of the shounens. And it's close to seinen, actually. It's more of a psychological thriller IMO. I am now rewatching it for the third time and am not regretting.

Yeah, from what I'm hearing it's a standard generic shonen, I probably won't bother

Also, I know you dropped shana, but I suggest you watch the 4 part ova series anyway :P

Yep, trust someone that just heared something and not someone who watched it several times xD. It's NOT a generic shounen, don't be making random assumptions.

Sorry man, I ain't ever going back to Shana.  That shit has gone to the deep-end.  Is this the last season? I might watch the last couple of episodes, just because I want to see closure with Shana and Yuji.

This changes quickly. Like right when the episodes get to double digits quickly.

Also it gets...pretty creepy later on.

The chimera ants arc on HxH is sometimes too violent to be a shounen. And there's barely any fights in the York Shin, it's mostly deductions and tatics all over the place. Genei Ryodan is like a bunch of Gin's together. But with way more instinct and Kuroro(the boss) is seriously overpowered.

HunterxHunter is awesome. The York Shin arc gets a little tedious, but the characters make up for it.
