@@rexibhazoboa7097 The manga has volume covers as well as colored spread in the Jump. Most of it is in B&W but we have enough official colored art from Togashi to know everyone's color scheme. That being said, I'm not sure Hisoka has an official hair color as he keeps dying his hair, he's had yellow/red and blue hair in official art for example, I don't remember if he had the pink ones too or not in official art but it's possible.
@@rexibhazoboa7097 Maybe they got that from the covers of the manga volumes that featured him? I'm curious, not stating that as a fact. I grew up on the 99 version, so I don't know what the canon manga color of hair is for Hisoka. I'm still struggling with the fact that Kurapica's eyes are brown and not blue like they were in the first animation of this series. Colors are such simple things, you'd think they could be consistent from one media to another.
It makes sense in confines of the series, that Alluka’s abilities have a lot of stipulations to them. If not, she would be near unstoppable force. Like Miss Morgan, I love seeing this softer side of Killua, the last image of him and Alluka was very sweet.
If alluka asked for a request i'd try use jokes to save my life... she wants my organ, I give her a piano...She ask for a hand, i'd say "what do you need a hand with"...she can't kill me because technically I did do what she asked
If I'm correct (you can correct me), Alluka's requests doesn't count as "3 requests" if she says "Brother". Because that's Alluka. If he was called Killua, that's where the actual request counts. And I think I actually get the other twist on Alluka/Nanika's power here that only Killua knows. Cause the way Killua asked Nanika to kill his mother, it isn't exactly a wish.
This confusion is actually a translation error. in the original Japanese nobody but killua uses gendered language at all for alluka. The family doesn’t view her as human and so doesn’t assign her any pronouns. They’re actually using the word Kyoudai which means siblings. The translators chose to call her male based on the 2004 data book which lists all the zoldyck children as male. But here’s the problem. Those data books are notoriously unreliable. They’ve been known to differ and outright contradict the manga on multiple issue. On top of which togashi loves retroactive continuity. He may have just changed his mind.
hunter ex hunter is all about stretegies and deep mind and thinkings and every character even minor one can become center of story if togashi want it.. I know y'all didn't like our critics about ants arc
Y'all do not listen to @jasonwilbert . He consistently comments anti LGBT things and spreads misinformation. Togashi has been writing queer characters since the start of his career. He even picthed a queer baseball manga called Trouble Quartet where the main character was a person of trans experience. Some notable trans characters in his orher series are Miyuki from Yu Yu Hakusho who stated that she may be a man in body, but she is a woman in her soul. Mikihisa in Level E who is a trans man who struggles to find love and ends up fully transitioning with the help of alien technology. Other notable queer characters are Sensui and Itsuki from YYH and Gel from HxH.
@@DisProfundis lol it's ok if you don't get it. The great thing about Togashi is that he writes for all reading levels. If you didn't get it, I'm sorry for you. Just means the surface is all you can manage.
@@alexandriteqween9760 Lmao we can see who is stuck to surface level when speaking about writing in a show. What can I say, keep up with the cope if forcing representation makes you feel better about yourself.

The debate surrounding Alluka's gender in Hunter x Hunter has sparked various theories and discussions among fans. Here's an expanded exploration of the theories regarding Alluka's gender: Mistranslations: One prevalent theory suggests that confusion surrounding Alluka's gender stems from mistranslations in the manga or anime adaptations. Translating from Japanese to English can sometimes lead to ambiguity or loss of nuance, particularly regarding gender-specific language. Zoldyck Family Tradition: Some fans speculate that within the Zoldyck family, regardless of an individual's biological sex, they are referred to using male pronouns. This theory suggests that the Zoldyck family adheres to a strict patriarchal tradition, where all members are addressed as male to reinforce the family's hierarchy and power structure. Cultural Context: Another explanation delves into the cultural nuances of the Japanese language. In Japanese, pronouns are often omitted, and context plays a crucial role in determining the intended meaning. Some argue that instead of using "he" pronouns, characters might have been referring to Alluka using gender-neutral terms like "sibling" or "child," which could have been translated into English as "he." Non-Binary Representation: With Alluka's character displaying traits that challenge traditional gender norms, such as fluidity in expression and identity, fans have proposed that Alluka may be a representation of non-binary or genderqueer identities. This theory suggests that Alluka's gender ambiguity is intentional, serving as a form of representation for individuals who don't conform to binary gender categories. Authorial Intent: Ultimately, until creator Yoshihiro Togashi explicitly addresses Alluka's gender within the story or in interviews, fans can only speculate on the character's gender identity. Some argue that Togashi may have deliberately left Alluka's gender ambiguous to provoke thought and discussion among viewers, emphasizing themes of identity, acceptance, and societal norms. These theories highlight the complexities surrounding Alluka's gender portrayal in Hunter x Hunter, inviting fans to engage in deeper analysis and interpretation of the character's identity within the narrative. Sorry for the long post. If some of you have more to share feeling free to expand. thanks chatgpt for fixing my bullet points.
@@78alJ0vle Togashi is a grown ass man his opinions can change, transidentity is a common word in a lot of the mangas and togashi like to create gender ambiguity, Karuto for exemple is officialy a man even if he looks like a girl. As for Alluka: -The official databook lists Alluka's sex as male. -Two of Alluka's brothers, Illumi and Milluki, refer to Alluka as their 'brother'. -In flashbacks, Zoldyck servants call Alluka the masculine "bocchan" or "bocchama -Killua refers to her as his sister and she look like a girl" If you are smart enough your brain should understand what's happening
