Is gon a psychopath?
>>
Still the worst looking transformation in shounen jump history.
>>
>>282862922
why is adult gon in the manga has zoomer face?
>>
No, he clearly displays a capacity for empathy and remorse for his wrong actions
>>
>>282862922
he was driven by anger for losing his loved-ones killed by bad guys, similar to kurapika
>>
>>282862922
Gon is kinda crazy in his own way but he's also too caring to warrant such a label, especially compared to actual psychopaths like Hisoka or Tserriednich
>>
>>282862922
Pretty much

Gon is the best written child in any manga, ever. If you look at every single decision he makes and the way he acts, you'll see that he's acting perfectly like an actual child. Every single shonen series has children or young teenagers making decisions that would be well beyond their own thinking, constantly acting as rational as possible and coming up with solutions an adult normally would. But Gon is a selfish, stubborn entity that constantly gives in to his emotions. Even his ability is something a child would come up with. "Oh, I want to shoot projectiles and make a sword from nothing!". He didn't even have a name for it until an arc later. But people are too used to a regular shonen protagonists that act like adults. Always making rational decisions, with their emotions only ever serving as some sort of temporary or permanent powerup when they need it. Gon got his power up too, but unlike every other shonen protag, it cost him everything. Because he's a child that was basically shown how to use real magic. He's not a psychopath at all, no. Just a child.

well said

Why is out of the story after teasing such a strong power? It's annoying.
>>
>>282864709
Its not the kind of shonen with endless escalation into more transformative power ups.
The nen system having limitations is a good thing from a narrative perspective.

The hunter association is a mix of illuminati and the mafia, everyone in it is evil or at least amoral. The only good people in HxH are the nameless background characters who get killed.
