Initially enjoyable universe, good buffness, good themes, but the series had production problems that led to major problems with the story later on. Characters are just dropped, stories cut short, filler... but it's passable.

First half better than second half but its not something I'd reread. It tries to throw in to many plot points after the Gourmet Olympics(or whatever it was called) midway through the story.

They just drop the main villain and all the tension, do a weird Food Illuminati subplot that goes nowhere and rush the story along. Then repeat the same mistake with the introduction of the final villain again.

If big dudes fighting monsters is what you want then the early bits are probably for you. After a certain point fights just turn into punch> zoom out to a full view of the earth with a big special affect on it> then the opponents reaction to the attack.

Make sure you read the manga. Everything is a steady climb of increasing hype until the around the late 20's volumes where it reaches maximum hype. After that it's a much quicker decline into a rushed mess of a story.

The anime butchered it. Watch the OVA and then read the manga

>First half better than second half
this kind of goes without saying for shounen manga, they blow their load early on and the mangaka runs out of ideas and motivation and keeps milking it

in fact the only shounen I can think of that has a better second half is FMA

You got me there. What I probably should have said was how it changed is what made it worse.

Since it goes from fairly basic action/adventure to Gourmet Illuminati and Ancient Space Demon Stands being the focus of the story

>>150675111
It's a shit series.

As everyone already said don't watch anime, its garbage. Read the manga instead.

monster hunter gone wrong, don't waste your time

read golden kamuy instead, it have both food and manliness and is way better than this

Sequel after db super right?
