HxH is made with the idea to not catch fast to the manga, and like I said, the story is simply fast paced, so even if they animate only 2 chapters, it still feels okay. If you want example for your defense, then that's Bakuman S1, it covered I think only 35-40 chapters. But it still felt slow at times. But S2 and S3 of it, covered much more. So you could say it had slow start, but then went faster.

In reality, Nanatsu anime can also end after Armor Giant arc with open ending like: to the Kingdom to save Elizabeth! and a sign to be continued, and year later, to make another season.
