Hunter x Hunter has previously won Anime Trending’s Decade Awards in the 2011 Grand Run-Off Polls.  

Viz describes Togashi’s manga series as: 

Hunters are a special breed, dedicated to tracking down treasures, magical beasts and even other people. But such pursuits require a license, and less than one in a hundred thousand can pass the grueling qualification exam. Those who do pass gain access to restricted areas, amazing stores of information and the right to call themselves “Hunters.” Can Gon, a country boy, follow his father and join their ranks?
