Viz Media licenses Hunter x Hunter (2011)

[Mach Rider]

The wait time for these sets is definitely pretty horrendously long... It reminds me of when Viz would do six month waits inbetween the 13 episode uncut Naruto sets. So while waits this long are unusual, they aren't unprecedented.

[NJ_]

That's what happens when a new show hits Toonami, you wait until sometime after a certain amount of episodes air for disc release dates with the only exception being Buu Kai (and all the older shows that came out before their Toonami premieres or re-runs).

At least there's another movie to look forward to with The Last Mission should Viz announce it this year.

[Chisel]

Yea going to have to blame Toonami on this horrendous wait between sets. I'd rather it wasn't airing on TV and we get the sets faster. At this rate it'll be forever before we get the whole series.

[Animefan1995]

Considering they are releasing twice the amount of episodes as the earlier sets it only makes sense the time between them is doubled.

True, but I would like if Viz starts releasing them every 6 months instead of having to release a new set 8-10 months after the last set. Besides, the 3rd set came out almost 1 year before the Heaven's arena arc aired on Toonami and the 4th set is around 11 months before the Greed Island arc began. It's just a Deja vu I'm seeing all over again.

[GingaDaiuchuu]

It's a totally reasonable request to get one cour every three months or two cours every six months, especially when the series started being released five years after its Japanese airing and the dub is obviously available since it has been running weekly on TV well ahead of the home video releases even before they slowed down so much. As has been mentioned, that last point unfortunately seems to hinder the release rate more than helping it, but eventually you'd think we'd be far enough behind and they could start releasing them at the standard rate so we "only" stay behind by the same amount.

These Hunter license replicas are based on the ones in the series, are made from thick, durable plastic and are roughly the size of a standard credit card. Be sure to snag yours while they last!

[Buckeye]

It figures that another hunter license was in order for the GWP. They are keeping things consistent, which is a good thing.

[russ869]

A little ridiculous though considering in the context of the series the hunter license is supposed to be one of the most rare, valuable, and sought after items in the world, and yet the person who buys these sets now has several of them! I guess they do make mention in the show of people pawning their license for money...

Can't believe it will be seven months after the 4th set was released in June but a year and one month since the Chimera Ant arc began on Toonami.

Guess we will be waiting another 7-8 months for Sets 6-7 to come out with the final one coming out by 2020.

Ugh, they're really going to drag these releases out long enough to take the same amount of time between the first and last as it took for the entire series to air originally, even though it will be six years since the series ended in Japan.
