Looks like Hunter X Hunter is getting a reboot. The upcoming television anime adaptation of the Hunter X Hunter manga will have a new staff and cast compared to the original 1999-2001 television anime, and it will retell the story from the manga from the beginning.

The anime will premiere on NTV on October 2 and run every Sunday at 10:55 a.m.

Hiroshi Koujina (Rainbow – Nisha Rokubō no Shichinin, Neuro – Supernatural Detective) will direct the anime at MADHOUSE (Death Note, NANA), and Jun Maekawa (Dragon Ball Z, Fresh Precure!) is in charge of the scripts. Takahiro Yoshimatsu (“Something Yoshimatsu” of Future GPX Cyber Formula, Slayers) is designing the characters, while Toshio Nakatani is producing. The cast is slated to be announced later.

Sweet. I didn’t watch the original Hunter X Hunter, looks like I can watch it soon!

    The anime series is quite a surprise to go with the resumption of the manga, which has been on another long hiatus since last year. The first series follows the manga quite closely, so I wonder whether this will do the same just like what they have done with Full Metal Alchemist. We shall see :o
