Plot:
Hunters! Those who travel in many places! Those who hunt for treasurer! Those who hunt magical beasts! Those who hunt men! But all this, is equal with one word: Danger. Yet danger cannot stop the boy named Gon, for he wants by all costs to become a Hunter. That way he can find his father who being a hunter, has disappeared long ago leaving Gon with his aunt Mito on Whale Island. He meets his father’s apprentice telling him that his father was alive, which Gon believed as being dead. He is an an accomplished Hunter and Gon believes if he could also follow his father's path, he will find his father and reunite with him. But becoming a hunter a license is required and the success rate to get one is very low. Yet Gon is determined. When he reaches the age of twelve, he leaves his home to enter the Hunter exam. There he befriends Leorio, whose dream is to become a doctor; Kurapika, a boy filled with hatred and revenge towards those who exterminated his clan; and Killua, an ex-assassin, who later Gon becomes best friends. With the help of each other they will pass any obstacle, even though sorrow, fear and death might be before them.
