User blog comment:Mandy dee/HunterXHunter Version 1999/@comment-7388020-20140106125037

I felt the same way, how kiddy the show felt, and though I never watched the 1999 version fully, the 2011 version does get darker and more violent. I personally wouldn't have minded a filler episode every now and then in the 2011 version, but at the same time okay there wasn't one. Anyway, the music and voice acting is top notch in the 2011 version as well, so that's something to consider! :)
