I feel like they should just read it tbh, the manga is incredible

They haven't even reached the halfway point in Hunter x Hunter yet (getting close though), so we won't be seeing a poll to replace it in the near future. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see. I'd like to see them watch Monster, but it's not popular enough to win a poll. I'm hoping it gets a boost in awareness / name recognition when the Pluto anime comes out later this year (same author).

You pretty much answered your own question, Aj 😅

@Orr Malus Lol why are the shows getting worse and worse as they get crazier?

There's a process to this.
First we recommend the down to earth stuff like Monster or Death Note. Then we introduce them to more crazy stuff like HxH. Then once they're comfortable with anime as a whole we hit them with the "wtf am I watching" stuff like JoJo or Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Then final phase: Bollywood.

There's less than 100 commenters here. It's rare for a comment to get more than 20 likes. Meanwhile thousands end up voting in the polls. You really can't judge the polls based off the comments.
Besides Jojo's has lots of emotions you just have to read between the lines. Part 3 does have a lot of dull episodes though.

many people in the comments wrote they voted for Cyberpunk because it was the shortest (well i voted for it for the same reason since I didn't watch any of those anime). Jojo has many fans, I like some seasons of the anime (and I really enjoyed Steel Ball Run race in the manga) but it's not the kind of anime I want to see them react too tbh. Berserk I've read just the manga. To me Haikyuu makes perfectly sense because most of the episodes are entertaining, I don't think that's the case with Monster and Jojo. For example with HxH in 99% of the episodes there is at least 1 scene I want to see them react to, in the next episode there are 3!!! 🤩. With Monster and Jojo I can think about few moments...their comments after the episodes are always interesting but I follow them mostly to empathize with their emotions

I bet if Jojos gets on the poll it will surprise people like Cyberpunk did.

Nope but I think it's between Monster and Haikyuu and in my opinion most of people that never comment prefer Haikyuu . I'm here just for HxH but maybe I'll renew my sub too if Haikyuu wins the poll, they would be overjoyed and amused most of the time

@HgPt -- Did they say that? As one of the few humans who hasn't watched or read Hunter x Hunter yet, I've had to skip their HxH reactions (for now, at least).

The Eclipse is extremely satisfying. It leaves you wanting more.

i don’t think they have a problem with graphic content. It’s just not a highly requested show and it doesn’t have an ending that could be considered satisfying even if it’s not “complete” like HxH.

I think Haikyuu will replace HxH

I don't know where people get the impression the girls don't like Blood and Guts and Sex. They're enjoying Cyberpunk just fine. I used to think Berserk would be a bad fit but not anymore. It has a very similar theme to Vinland Saga but it's so much more in depth. Every character that's given more than a few lines is multi-dimensional and well written. Not to mention Griffith.
I'd vote for Berserk if it came up. It's short though so it should replace Cyberpunk. Personally I'm hoping Jojo's Bizarre Adventure replaces HxH.

They've talked about Monster being recommended a lot, so they are definitely watching it at some point in the future. I think they even put it on a poll at least once.

Yes! Gintama has some amazing arcs. I wish more people gave it a chance.

I obviously can't speak for the girls, but given the graphic content of the series I don't think it would be particularly high on their list, nor has there been a lot of demand for it in the comments. Still, never say never.

Does anyone know if they're planning to watch Berserk at some point? Would be awesome. Also Monster, but that goes without saying

Shybuia Incident Arc, Chimera Arc, Succession Contest Arc also have potential to be actually the best arc (Togashi is god in writing). There it should be at least one arc from Gintama also which is top tier and I never watched one piece, but it's possible to also have a top tier arc.

next episodes that you've already watched are amazing too.
In episode 58 there is a reference to Kurapika's past, if you want to understand it you have to read the story here: https://coloredmanga.com/mangas/kurapikas-memories/volume-00/chapter-001/

We can agree on this. YorkNew Arc is one of the best arc in shonen
