I mean Togashi's art style is kinda good imo.
And let's not forget that Togashi stated himself that he had a lot of stress from Yu Yu Hakusho so hence why his art style is full of scribble in HxH.

Sorry, but that's just massive bullshit.
OP is just objectively worse compared to HxH in every single category outside of worldbuilding and consistent artstyle.
That's not a knock on OP (I love OP and wouldn't be here, if I didn't), it's just a fact.
OP isn't even deep. It's just as cliché as almost all other mangas/animes. Even freakin Ecchi mangas/animes have themes like racism, rich vs poor, high class vs lower class etc.
Not that HxH is a literature masterwork with thousands of layers either, but its writing is in fact far more nuanced than OP writing.
Just look at the arc structures. That alone should be more than enough to understand it.
With one piece every single arc follows the exact same pattern.
Oda thinks of one overlaying theme (racism etc.), slaps it on the arc and then it goes like:
1) SH reach a new island.
2) They have an adventure and meet the local hero, most of the time a young female.
3) They learn about the problems of said heroine and what's wrong on the island.
4) They clash with the villains for the first time.
5) SHs either lose or the fight gets broken up/suspended.
6) Tragic flashback of the heroine incoming.
7) SHs vs villains round 2, SHs win
8) Banquet and departure to the next island.
Literally every single major OP arc has been that way. HxH is way more unpredictable and diverse here.
As for your "simple and boring HxH explanations": I understand when someone doesn't like that style of writing. However, one can't deny that at least everything makes perfect sense in Togashi's universe. I prefer such detailed explanations over the countless plot conveniences and inconsistencies we get in OP any day of the week (and no, those aren't just conveniences because "the reader has to interpret it on their own").

I really don't get this entire stall plot of Luffy & Co. trying to reach the top.
Luffy could literally just activate G4, fly up there and smash through the fodder in the air in like 3 seconds. Heck, even Sanji could use moonwalk and assist him.
Him needing to "conserve" his energy isn't even an argument, since he already used G4 for some fodder earlier on Onigashima. Those few seconds would make no difference and he could be face to face with Kaido in a matter of moments.
That alone is some massive PIS stuff.
To make matters worse, even if we accept that kind of writing, they still have Jinbei with them. This dude just casually smashed through a whole floor in order to climb up to Luffy & Sanji. Yet now he suddenly forgot about the fact that he could do that with basically every floor (-> easy way up for them) and they're all running around like headless chicken instead.
It's just really so frustrating to see such writing ...
