Jul 01, 2024Hunter x Hunter Volume 1 is an exciting start to a brilliant series that doesn't hold back its aurora off for a minute. From the jump, you know this is Togashi's opus and creative peak, and he never holds your hand to tell you that you are in his world, a natural one. One that gets on with itself and just embraces what it is. Togashi no longer feels held down in his writing by expectation or limitation; he realized and opened the doors to limitlessness in his writing, a true sense of whimsical wonder that makes one realize they are in for the ride of their life. Hunter x Hunter, Volume 1 is like a burning sensation that hooks you in and makes you itch to read every single chapter you can find after, thanks to Togashi's biting vision, personality, and freedom that he will never let you forget.
