Has anyone else seen this? It's a neat take on the first two chapters of the manga made by studio Pierot (animators of Yu Yu Hakusho and Naruto I believe) 1999 vs 2011? This lil' guy game first, the original gangster of HxH animation

It never had a proper release outside of VHS in Japan I believe but if you poke around or note me you can find it subbed without too much trouble via the interweb. Shonen Jump does pilot episodes for a lot of their series to varying success at capturing the source material.
This is one of the few pilots where I actually like it as much as the two series we got in a lot of regards. The filler on the boat is kinda silly (and Kurapika's red hair oh my...), but I think it mostly falls in line with some of the other crazier animals in HxH. Just figured I'd create this post so people who didn't know about it can check it out, and those who have seen it give their thoughts on this quirky little pilot OVA.
