Revisit the Most Legendary Anime Battles from a New Perspective with Unique POV Fan Art

Hello, anime fandom. I'm going through something right now. Maybe it's nothing, or maybe I'm close to actually losing my mind. All I know is that I finished Hunter X Hunter (2011), immediately felt a void in my soul, attempted to fill it with Hunter X Hunter (1999), and am yet again back to feeling empty. The next thing on my list is naturally to start reading the manga, but I'm already pre-dreading the experience of catching up due to Togashi's long hiatuses.

I spend an absurd amount of time on YouTube listening to the many, hours-long video essays that analyze plot points and characters from all sorts of new perspectives. Something I never expected to run into, though, were unique visual perspectives on the battles in the series. No, I don't mean theories on how Kurapika vs. Uvogin would've played out differently if the latter was a transmuter. I mean gorgeously executed Matrix-level POV fanart by Japanese illustrator @itukazuuu. If you've ever wondered what it would look like to get Yo-Yo'd by Killua, look no further than these incredibly creative digital drawings.

If they ever re-animate Naruto, they should hire this guy to be on the creative team. If I'm gonna watch another adaptation of the same manga, I'd love new crazy new perspectives.
