Hunter X Hunter: Phantom Rogue



Finally! An upcoming Hunter X Hunter movie that's worth watching. I was getting a little tired of the remake and this news is really making me excited.


I have watched all of the Hunter X Hunter series (the old version up to G.I. Final as well as the 2011 reboot) but admittedly I don't read the manga so I'm not familiar with the Chimera Arc. I do hope that the movie will at least explain bits of that arc as it goes on with the story of the movie since I don't have enough time to spend reading the manga. m(_ _)m

The plot of the story is an original one by Yoshihiro Togashi which revolves on Kurapika and his stolen scarlet eyes. I guess that would explain the bandage over his eyes on the image. Geneiryoudan's aka Phantom Troupe's member with the number 4 tattoo is also revealed in this movie. It's not stated, however, when this occurs in the Hunter X Hunter timeline.

The bad news is that this is set to show in Japan in January 12th next year. This means that it would take even longer for the DVD release. With FMA: Sacred Star of Milos and Gyakuten Saiban as examples, I have a feeling it would take at least a year before non-Japanese-speaking countries could see it. o(╥﹏╥)o
