Hunter × Hunter
Before the first anime television series was created, a short film adaptation of "Hunter × Hunter" was shown as part of the 1998 "Jump Super Anime Tour" alongside similar adaptations of "Seikimatsu Leader den Takeshi!" and "One Piece". Produced by Studio Pierrot and directed by Noriyuki Abe, it depicts the early events of the manga up to Gon's ocean voyage from Whale Island.
Sorcerer Hunters
"Sorcerer Hunters" was later adapted into a 26-episode anime television series by Xebec, which was the studio’s first production, and aired on TV Tokyo from October 3, 1995 to March 3, 1996. In North America, the series is licensed by ADV Films.
