Remake of the 1999 TV series of Hunter x Hunter based on the manga by Togashi Yoshihiro. A Hunter is one who travels the world doing all sorts of dangerous tasks, from capturing criminals to searching deep within uncharted lands for lost treasures. Gon is a young boy whose father, a Hunter, disappeared long ago. He believes if he can follow his father's path, he might one day be reunited with him. After becoming 12, Gon leaves home and enters the Hunter exam, notorious for its low success rate and high probability of death. He befriends the revenge-driven Kurapica, the doctor-to-be Leorio and the rebellious ex-assassin Killua during the exam - their friendship will prevail throughout the many trials and threats they come across as Hunters.
