They didn't have any confidence in this show lasting more than 26 episodes. Hence the first 26 episodes have two recaps, censoring and skips backstory.

The show gets a lot better after that. They realized it was going to last and stopped appealing to such a young age.

Oh, there's another recap episode later? I thought I saw someone say this was the only one.

"And then they expected us to savagely kill each other but we just broke the rules instead of becoming murderers. Isn't becoming a Hunter swell?"

I thought that was the case. It is kind of funny the series is so packed with content but the recap episodes are frontloaded and then it is all canon.

Man, I don't know if I'm fatigued or what, but even looking at a recap episode in something like Hunter Hunter makes me more frustrated and drags the show down for me than Shit pudding or One Piece dragging episodes.

i forgot to mention this earlier.

I don't know what Genos' JPn voice sounds like. And it may not fit his 'cool' design, but Genos' semi-robotic English voice seems comedically appropriate if he's as socially inept as he was in 2nd episode.

Yep and it's episode 26. They are just filler to end each cour. After they get pass the original two cours they were scheduled for, they don't try it ever again.

Yeah I figured the recap(s) had something to do with early run uncertainty with money/show success and whatnot.

These recap episodes aren't even in the blu ray releases from what I've heard. Pretty sure we're getting the broadcast episodes and not the home video versions.

I wasn't to sure about the voice before, but it's fitting for Genos. He's acts awkwardly when he's around other people and when he's paired up with Saitama.

So Viz is once again going to give us the inferior version of a show?

There's some small edits here and there but nothing crazy. It's the same for the most part.

I'm more worried about what it means for future Viz shows though. Imagine if we get the TV versions of JoJo with black bars everywhere lol.

They'll be in the English Blu-ray. Japan just skips them for initial DVD release because who wants to overpay for a DVD that only has 2-3 regular episodes and a recap?
