The second reason that a Hunter X Hunter Season 7 anime announcement seemed unlikely was due to the manga series length, or lack thereof. If a Hunter X Hunter return were to be teased it wouldn’t involve Megumi Han and Mariya Ise recording new lines for Gon and Killua. Reoccurring character Kurapika is involved as well as the Zodiacs, but, notably, Gon and Killua don’t play a major role yet.Īnd that’s why a Hunter X Hunter Season 7 announcement seemed unlikely even before the escape room game was officially confirmed. Then a war of succession begins between the princes of the Kakin Empire. It was a great stopping point the next major Hunter X Hunter story arc shifted the focus to a different set of characters for an expedition into the Dark Continent.
Her first major debut in a voice acting role was as Hunter X Hunter’s Gon, which is what she meant by her “starting point” comment. Megumi’s Instagram post solidified the fact that she was working on recording lines for a Hunter X Hunter 2021 project. I think we can let you know about it soon.” She also tweeted on Twitter,” Megumi wrote. Megumi followed up that tweet with an Instagram post where she teased Hunter X Hunter anime fans even further. On February 5, 2021, Mariya tweeted out, “I had a great recording session today! On the way home, I was happy to see my buddy! I can’t wait to tell you about it, but I can’t show you yet… so I’ll put a mosaic on it! (What is it? What is it? I wonder what it is!)” So when voice actresses Megumi Han (the voice of Gon) and Mariya Ise (the voice of Killua) began teasing fans about working together it was hoped that they were referring to a Hunter X Hunter 2021 project, maybe even a TV series or a new Hunter X Hunter movie. On October 2, 2021, it will be the 10-year anniversary of when the Hunter X Hunter 2011 anime first aired on TV.
