      That is one of the reasons hunter hunter is so unique. Togashi thinks the story over and over and over while he's sick. He purposely writes himself into corners so he can wreck his brain trying to figure an way out during breaks. I'm not going to say I'm happy for the breaks, but the manga would be very different without them.

    • @steak5599

      I think Togashi wrote a pretty lengthy essay decribing what's going on inside his head when he draws his manga and he can not take up any of those ideas suggested at the end of this video.
      He said he suffers from anxiety and still felt very bad at Failing his fans on Yu Yu Hakusou.
      Despite the respects he got from fans around the entire world, he himself fears disappointing his fans more than anything else was the reason he would not hire someone else or even let his wife draw his manga.

    The first calamity that came back from the dark continent was Nen itself. Much like gon and killua through at heavens arena, an expedition had their Nen nodes forcefully awoken by something on the dark continent and when they came back 500ish years ago they brought Nen back, introducing the potential for any human to become a disaster for others around them. It's interesting that so little people have healing abilities, suggesting it's far more aggression oriented.

    • @xSeulgi
      @xSeulgi 3 месяца назад +67

      I feel like it has alot to do with personality traits and intentions when developing a technique. I also feel like people SELF IMPOSE bad terms to their techniques as well. If people were more diligent in the rule around their nen id imagine someone like kurapika woukd have the potential to take the wolrd over. That restriction could have possibly been less severe.
      feel like people in this series limit themselves to A particular skill instead of attempting to learn a few more and develop potential useful techniques like healing self or others. Most people can easily make a self healing technique on purpose I feel like it's a intention thing when training. Not necessarily a restriction on nen itself. I think if there was more people who actually ACCOUNTED for having that skill under their heel then that point would be invalid

      @@JEMA333​​⁠​⁠the reason kurapika has the restrictions he does is that the conjured chains would be much weaker if he didn’t have such a strict set of tenants for them. with nen-conjured objects especially, though this applies to all uses of nen, having a very narrow use case makes something exponentially more powerful. think about it, with the limitations kurapika placed on himself, he can only use some of his abilities on 12 specific people. if someone like Knuckle could only use his ability on 12 specific people, it would be fucking insane, but the way his technique works would fight against that because the power of his technique is that it is equally bad for everyone who gets tagged with it.
      people trade use-cases for strength. nen vows are like steroids for nen users, bad side effects, but the sheer power that comes with it often far outweighs having a generally good ability that wouldn’t match them.

      I think that the series just didn’t focus very much on the non-aggressive side of nen, since it is a battle Shonen at the end of the day.
      For a more lore-friendly theory, I think that the majority of people who become Hunters are selfish in nature and aren’t focused on helping other people, so it just so happens that the majority of nen we see is aggressive. Considering that the characters who developed unconscious nen (Neon Nostrade, Komugi) didn’t have aggressive abilities kind of reinforces that point, maybe?

      I think humans were the original threat to the rest of the world. Lake Mobius is a prison disguised as a safe area. It also supresses our nen exponentially. Watch Don appear and demonstrate this by killing the Guide and eliminating the calamities from the island; with the exception of Brion and Zobai which were weapons created by ancient humans.

      I started reading at the same time! My local library had them… but that means I not only had to wait for him to release more, but wait for which ones were in stock and read them over and over to memorize them… I love this series so much and it’s so hard to explain to people just how deep it goes when you read chapters over and over. 🥲 I’ll keep waiting and appreciate what we do get. I care more about the mangaka’s health. He’s been through so much, we are lucky to have what we do anyway. So many people are so unaware and unappreciative of how hard he worked to put out what he has. Asking him to just “give it to someone else” to finish is such a slap in the face to long time readers. Like, just wait a few years… he’s got this. Or he doesn’t. And that’s ok. It’s a gift either way.

    I think that the chimera ants specifically were probably at the bottom of the food chain in the dark continent and they were only considered powerful due to being in an environment where they became the apex predator. I feel like the 5 calamities could also follow this pattern especially for some of them, where they are almost bottom feeders or scavengers on the dark continent and are really not powerful at all compared to what exist there but they are compared to humans, but I think definitely Byron and maybe some of the others are some kind of bioweapon created either using nen or that just has nen.

      That the ant queen manage to become human sized and gave birth to humanoid ants, was something, that never happens before.

    A couple potential issues I see with this.
    1. As far as only hunters learning nen, the guy who was teaching Gon about nen in the beginning was also teaching another non hunter child the basics of nen as well. Not to mention the arena where Gon and Hisoka had their fight is full of non hunters who know about nen.
    2. As far as the multiple ant king idea, Merium was a unique existence created due to a spacific need and situation. On the dark continent there might not have necessarily been a reason for an ant king to be created or they might have been wiped out prior to being able to evolve to that point each time they moved in. Considering the dark continent and the number of people who would have been living there using and studying nen, you would almost have to assume that the people of that time were far more powerful in nen than the curent nen users. This would also explain why survivers tend to become more powerful, they would be able to learn small portions of the knowledge of the old kingdom to help with their own nen abilities.

      @@snowman9631 zushi might only be one person but it's still an example of a non hunter learning nen, and there are still a lot of the people in that battle tower who know nen but arnt hunters. The point was to show that his assessment of people being intentionally kept from learning nen unless they were a hunter has a flaw, nothing more than that. Who knows they could also all have learned it illegally but yet no one chooses to go after them, there's a lot of potential options there.
      As far as the chimera ants, you are right, untill merium they were driven purely by instinct. However, instinct is a situation and need based driving force. They needed food so they eat, they need to get stronger so they evolved to get stronger, but once they were the strongest in their area the need and there for the instinct to grow even stronger beyond that would go away because it would then be more beneficial to expend that energy on reproduction over getting even stronger when there is no need (look at evolution in our own world for examples of this, an apex predator doesn't continue to evolve and change to gain even more advantages in its environment, untill something comes along to provide the presure to continue to evolve and adapt anything without higher intelligence and thought process will stop evolving). There is also the chance that the nen users on that continent were far stronger and able to wipe out any ant invasions before they got to the point of an ant king. The creation of an ant king requires the consumption of a human, considering the power of the things on the continent the nen users of the time were most likly far more powerful, even Nettaro came back stronger meaning he learned something while he was there, something that would have been more easily learned and more accessible to the ancient nen users of the time. So let's say the average nen user was as strong as Nettaro, would a non evolved chimera ant have stood a chance at taking down and eating a nen user of that era to be able to create an ant king? And even if they did what would it matter when he would be an example of an average to weak nen user and they could have just turned around and sent another group of highly trained nen users to deal with it

      @@BMac57 It's kind of a long story but basically ever since yu yu hakushu, he couldn't write it the way he wanted to so he kind of fell out of love with the series, he doesn't want Hunter Hunter to become the same, he knows his drawings are not the best but that's kind of the point. he wants his story to be written by him and drawn by him, I recently watched a video on the topic so maybe you could find it cuz I don't think I really explained it as well as I should, sorry i don't articulate very well sometimes.

      I think there’s something to letting togahsi continue to draw. Long shot. What if they turned the quality of the artwork into an advantage? The more characters in the story we know get killed off, the “lower the quality gets”, or rather more authentic to whatever togashi can produce. This way, his artwork is portraying his story, in turn possibly increasing the number of chapters and also symbolizing the conclusion of his story. Only downside is…people(including publishers) probably wouldn’t be too accepting on the “quality”(art). Is this a (nen) condition we can live with?

    This could explain Issac's character. Maybe he started off disappointed in humanity. Since leaving the dark continent humanity in his eyes had gotten weak. We seperated ourselves from the natural order of kill or be killed.
    But after his visit he learned there is no thrill in simply surviving. Unfortunately he wasn't able to pass this lesson onto his son.

  • @montablanc1

    My theory is that because Mankind was so saturated with Nen on the Dark Continent, nature itself evolved to meet these new conditions. As evidenced by the ancient cities and structures, mankind was able to prosper at some point. It would also explain how so many creatures came to be hyper lethal towards humanity specifically. I believe that this would also explain the great treasures that everyone wants (Nitro Rice, Unmanned Rock, etc...) When a living creature dies, it is returned to the earth and feeds nature. What would then happen if people/animals saturated with Nen were returned to the earth and absorbed by their surroundings? What if thanks to mankind, the flora and fauna were able to accumulate Nen the same way a Bald Eagle accumulates mercury from eating fish? With that in mind, the Chimera Ants are the only creatures THAT WE KNOW OF, that can absorb Nen through the consumption of a nen user. Thanks for reading, this is my theory.

    (tbh i get why he doesnt want to compromise his creative vision, its not about doing the art himself, its that opening yourself up to collaboration inherently means having to listen to and let other people influence your art, overtly or subconciously.
    and he understands that what made hxh so beloved is how much freedom and experimentation he did with it.)

    I was wondering how much postmortem nen affects the story. For example, I wonder if the nen script we see a few times in the story is someone's post Morten nen. It's said that the script is more effective at boosting weak nen users (that's why that boxer guy in Greed Island used it), so maybe the whole system is the result of a weak nen user who had a nen writing ability and died cursing the strong.

    I wish that Togashi would just write the script and only draw things when they first appear. So, any time we’re introduced to a new character, a new location, a new object, etc. It won’t even be a panel. Just a reference sheet. And then a team can take those and create panels from them with the script/dialogue that Togashi laid out.

    If Togashi wants to proceed, then write a novel instead. Or have an apprentice do the drawing. He already had bad health and should at least minimize how he works.

    My take would be:
    Known world Humans are more likely refugees from a war torn world of continous evolution..
    And Nen is the tool they used to get out of the dark continent...
    For the gate keepers, i think they're the people who decided not to join the refugees on building a new world and just focus on self growth in an isolated area near the dark continent but far from the new world..
    There are still decent number of humans on the dark continent that adapted to the continous evolution but they are living as travelers to avoid threats or they have a massive walled cities in hi areas to protect themselves.. and Nen is a normal thing for them...
    Someone or several people in the association have gone back and fort in the dark continent secretly even in recent times, they were tasked to map the whole mobius lake and the whole continent shore but avoid direct contact with the natural inhabitants..
    Netero brought back the travelers guide in his secret last voyage to the dark continent and gave it to the v5 as a token of the association's work.. Netero met the old Don Freecs and advised him to limit the v5 from traveling to the continent to avoid senseless deaths..
