Kurapika’s gonna find out his clan came from the dark continent and turn into a hermit protecting his stash of eyes in his new homeland, chatting it up with Don Freecs before he abruptly dies from emperor time overuse. Don pulls a Naruto and replaces his eyes with Kurapika’s to ascend his Rinnesharingan by combining Freecs and Kurta DNA, giving him access to all Nen types and enough power to enact the merger, the fruits of all his years of research. Unfortunately he did not consider that Bungee Gum has the properties of both rubber and gum, tethering Hisoka to reality so he can off-screen Don and the collective unconscious.

The Entire Dark Continent takes place inside of Demon World in Yu Yu Hakusho after Yuskue's peace scheme lasted a while, and Gon's some distant relative to Yusuke like the whole mazoku thing. And the final arc is the demon world tournament.

What would be interesting is if gon somehow becomes a beast without Nen, or gains an ability that is not related to Nen. We know that Nen isn’t the end all be all of that world, there are magical creatures that surpass the use of Nen. This path is interesting to me because it would feel cheap if gon just gets his powers back after his sacrifice. This would also separate gon from all other hunters.

Gon getting his nen back is both inevitable and not surprising, it’s stated that sometimes your nen type can change albeit extremely rare. He just needs his nen aura nodes forcefully opened again or to train from square one with the basics and invest the time in mastering them and maybe this time around when he does his water divination test he gets a different result which would lead to new nen abilities

10% Ending- Hisoka kills the Phantom troupe before Kurapika can get his revenge, Kurapika attacks him in a rage but emperor times kills him before he can win. Gon never gets nen back. Killua returns to being an assassin and takes up the mantle of leader of the Zoldyck family, and one of his jobs is to go and assassinate Gon. And he does. Divisive ending (my favorite) - Kurapika gets back all the eyes but realizes revenge isn't worth it and abandons his plans to kill the Phantom Troupe. Hisoka kills the remaining Phantom Troupe members including Chrollo. Gon never gets Nen back but continues to be a world class hunter without it, the ultimate big bad is Gyro and in a complete subversion of expectations, Gon never fights him. Instead he convinces him that he's worthy of love and forgiveness and talk no jutsu's him into abandoning his evil ways and it works. 80% Ending - Leorio becomes the super doctor , and cures Gon's Nen condition. Killua completely abandons the Zoldyck family and lives happily ever after with Aluka. Kurapika gets the eyes back , gets his revenge by killing all the remaining Phantom Troupe members except for Chrollo, as Emperor time extinguishes the last of his life before he can land the killing blow. This causes Chrollo to see that he was as bad as the the traffickers that killed his meteor city friend and spends the rest of his life trying to atone for all the atrocities he's committed. Ging picks up where Don Freecs left off and continues exploring the other side of the Dark continent and writes the second book. Finally, Adult Gon with nen back faces off against Gyro in an epic battle, dies briefly and unlocks post mortem Nen to revive himself Hisoka style and uses that power boost to defeat Gyro. Then Hisoka pulls up and we get a Naruto v Sasuke battle for all the marbles as the final battle in the series. After a grueling fight, Gon barely manages to defeat him, and with his dying words a smiling Hisoka acknowledges Gon as his greatest opponent and expresses how happy he is to be killed by him and then dies. Gon returns to Mito and Whale island , marries his sweetheart, has a gaggle of kids, continues his adventures as the worlds greatest hunter and lives happily ever after.

Togashi really needed some help to finish the hxh story

What I really liked about gon and his contract to trade all that power, is how pitou identified gon as a rival to the king. I think gon's nen contract was so powerful it was felt from the dark continent. something that can rival the king can maybe rival whatever horror is on the dark continent. I think gon becomes a nen beast in the end, and it'll show how humans and nen were intertwined from exploration. Don freeces made a nen contract from the dark continent and promised the entity to there to produce something even more incredibly powerful. the entity formed the contract and promised to leave humans alone if they can produce something they have never seen before. I feel like the whole chimera ant arc was a huge foreshadow for the end of the show. gon trading his whole humanity for humanity to surpass the limits of nen.

What did Nick call Tserriednich!? 😂

SECOND biggest gather of HxH content, but would LOVE to see your and NewWorldReviews collab on some HxH goodness

"that's more than you got" ouch Nick XD

I think the improvement to the good and 50% ending would be that Gon only last second recovers his Nen and defeats the Chimera Ant army but the entire V6 countries are completely and utterly destroyed and devastated with only 10% of humans surviving still teaching a lesson in humility and hubris as now humanity has to rebuild again I'm mean whats the fun in a lesson if nobodies around to learn it.

A piece of me hopes that while on the dark continent, Don Freeces made a nen contract with an entity there to protect Gon and give him power if he ever needed it.

If the writer wanted he could easily do a time skip of 6 months or something. Jumping to a few survivors on the dark continen. That would cut a lot of time and be fine for the plot

I had an idea on how Gon gets his Nen back. I’d like it if it came from Ging finally deciding to be a good father. Somehow, Gon ends up on the Dark Continent. Ging is mortally wounded against some kind of monster and realizes he could use a Nen vow to save his life at the cost of his Nen. He could then escape and leave everyone else to fend off the monster. But then he decides to impart his Nen to Gon, knowing full well that he’s giving up his only chance of survival to do so. Gon then defeats the monster that wounded his dad

i haven't watched the vid yet but i'll leave my opinion here: i've always assumed that we are much closer to the end of hxh than we think. despite the succession contest arc being one of the most unpredictable shounen arcs to date (as in literally ANYONE on that ship could die), i still think that we will actually reach the dark continent (kurapika-less, but we'll make it there nontheless). i personally think togashi will keep a huge part of the dark continent unexplored, as it fits his style. i think gon will get his nen back, beat gyro with killua, take a trip to the dc, and after discovering the mystery of don freecs, that will be the end. of the three endings i presume this one to be similar to ending A (with the 80% satisfaction rate, as in a typical shounen ending)

Dunno how much of a hot take it is, but the first "10%" ending is honestly great thematically. HxH has always sorta been about the dilemma of choosing love and human connection versus choosing ambition, exploration, and lofty pursuits. The "10%" ending I initially hated. Everyone dying felt cheap and low key sorta stupid. But the more I thought about it, everyone dying because they were listening to their hubris and chasing their ambitions was fitting. That being said, I don't like them all instantly dying the second they set foot on the DC. We need to tie up all the loose threads (Don Freeccss, the DC, etc.) first before they die. I don't think I love it, but it really fits thematically, and is also the most efficient and realistic way to end the series. To tie up Pariston's 5000 Chimera Ants for the 10% ending, Togashi could add an epilogue with *basically what Nick theorized for the 50% ending*: Pariston taking over w/ them. It still fits thematically, because by choosing the Dark Continent (in turn, their hubris and ambition), they both lose their lives and cost the human world their lives. Speaking of the 50% ending, I like the idea of Pariston striking w/ the ants while the Black Whale explorers are away; it opens up a reintroduction to Gon and everyone else who isn't on the Black Whale. I feel like if the whole "Pariston striking while everyone is away and possibly dead" thing happens, it's gotta be preluded by Gon reflecting on his loss of nen and his mistakes, realizing his own arrogance, and growing. Then, he could be an ideological opponent to Gyro and Pariston. A combination of all of them would be satisfying. The explorers on the BW die due to their own hubris, leaving the V5 nations open to be taken over by Pariston and his ants. Gon learns from his mistakes, and him, Killua, and everyone who stayed behind face Pariston and probably Gyro, and somehow win. And maybe, getting a bit creative here, Gon unlocks this new, more powerful form of nen which is fueled by the will to protect the user's connections to others and their love.

I think it would be cool if it came full circle in a way, like Gon sitting with his future kid and there talking and then the kid says " I think I'll be a hunter". Then it shows to the kid entering the hunter test for the association. It would be full circle because Gon came back and was a legendary hunter and now his kid can carry the torch for his/her own name and then them becoming a legendary hunter like their father.

Yo what do you think of the new chainsaw man chapter

Morel is also going to the dark continent, just FYI

I really like that third idea, though maybe after that, Leorio uses his medical training to save Alluka. Also, Kurapika finds a sister tribe of his people on the Dark Continent, some of whom travel back with him to rebuild the village. At some point, Killua fights Illumi and/or Kikyo, perhaps after they become Chimera Ants. Maybe Gon goes back to Heaven's Arena and rises up the ranks to become the strongest non-Nen user ever, perhaps unlocking something related to the mystery of his "birth"/being a nen beast. As for the succession stuff, the baby prince is named the new king and his mom rules as regent until he's old enough to be king.

I'm surprised you haven't done a every Kakin Prince Ranked and Explained video yet It would be a long video, but I love long videos

tied between 50 and 80 percent ones myself it would be amazing just to see this manga come to its natural conclusion the optimism in me says yes the realistic side says he'll pass away like the other two greats of the last few years and it would and will be a sad day in anime history when he does go however as long as he is happy with what he created shouldnt we as well be we are fans of something he wrote and we should all come together to show the man who created something so beautiful a proper sendoff if it doesnt end well then it was one hell of an amazing run and maybe just maybe it could get animated so we could watch it as well

8:25 nick: "all of them are pretty awful" *cries in halkenberg*

Do you think it is possible that Pariston Hill is one of the disasters brought back from the dark continent? Maybe Netero had to bring him back

Endings for HxH, always fun to ponder. Togashi has given us such a rich world with so many characters :) I won't pretend I can guess anything that happens in HxH including even the plot's location as this man's imagination is endless, but thematically, I have wondered about how some of the main characters may reach their story arc end. I keep thinking about the Mobius strip. The lake is call Lake Mobius and there is a mobius strip on Don Freecs's book cover. It would seem somewhat poetic if the 4 main characters's arcs followed a mobius like path. Gon and Killua's already have. Gon starts on Whale Island without Nen, he ends on Whale Island without Nen... but it's an opposite viewpoint. Killua starts by leaving his family to travel with Gon, he ends by leaving Gon to travel with his family... but it is also a very much different viewpoint. How could this apply to Leorio and Kurapika? Let me try Kurapika first. One interesting fact dropped by Togashi is that unlike most other powerful Shonen story abilities where once a character reaches his physical limits and passes out, the power dissolves/disbands.... Kurapika's Emperor Time STAYS ON even when he is unconscious. So that would imply he needs to consciously turn it on and off. It is possible that when he has his "PITOOOOU" moment (presumably when he sees the head of Pairo), he turns on Emperor Time in some version of a showdown with the 4th Prince, but during the battle, he loses himself and becomes unable to turn off Emperor Time as his consciousness is fractured now. He may win the "battle" (with Togashi, one never knows what "showdown" we will actually get) but is now stuck in Emperor Time in a broken conscious state, battling his inner demons. He would need to make some inner choice at that point... join his clan in death with raging red eyes. Or... perhaps... ask Leorio (who presumably has trained under Cheadle for at least a short time and acquired some Nen Medical abilities) to remove his eyes, cutting off Emperor Time, and joining his clan in a different way, but then be finally able to move on beyond revenge. as with Komugi, blindness is not the end of your world even as a Nen user. He just will not have access to Emperor Time anymore. So in a sense, he also starts from the destruction of his clan, eyes locked in redness and brutally removed, and then ends with a choice that brings him back to that moment, but he stands at a very different viewpoint. This then could tie in Leorio's mobius strip path. Leorio's story started with him helplessly watching a friend die from a medical reason and he set his life path to becoming a doctor who would work for free so that this would never happen again. His rage in the Chairman Election arc was so real because he had spent ~10 years accomplishing every impossible milestone towards his goal only to be faced again with a friend dying in a hospital while he was helpless to do anything. Now, what if he were faced with the heartbreaking choice of seeing Kurapika in a state that he now CAN help, but he instead needs to make the decision to NOT intervene and let Kurapika choose for himself, even if Kurapika chooses to die. I think that could hit hard. With respect to Gon/Killua coming back. Gon clearly needs a hero redemption arc. While he could in theory journey onwards without Nen, the fact that Ging says he can still sense Nen in Gon would lead me to believe that Gon can and will get his Nen back. I have a weird theory about how the "two" halves of Don's book are really just one volume but requires some Nen trick to "see" the other half when viewing the first. And possibly, this could require Paladin's Necklace. While this may just be a fever dream thought, IF Gon could access the second half of Don's book, he may discover further secrets to getting Nen (or other powers) back and allow him to rejoin the story line. Even without the book, he can discover the "normal" way to learn Nen again. To demonstrate character growth, he can have an interaction with Gyro. I do not think they will fight. But it would be telling for Gon's character growth to see his REACTION to seeing a human who has chosen to abandon his humanity. To see if anything resonates with him when he reflects on his own choices made in the Chimera Ant Arc. And how Gon responds to this and his actions that result would perhaps be a way of telling his ongoing story. For Killua, the main unresolved issues still surround his family ties. All the Zoldycks are still alive and they still want him to be head of the family. Running off with Alluka has not resolved that part yet even though his character growth has been astronomic in this series. The easiest tie back to his family is through Gotoh. There would be no reason whatsoever to have Gotoh back in the story, die, die in secret, die at the hands of an integral character Hisoka and then have the family cover up his death, if this was not going to be revealed to Killua at some point perhaps in HIS "PITOOOOU" moment. As heart breaking as it may be, Killua's story would be more powerful if he had a "hero falls" arc. He does not need to reach rock bottom or turn into a new person. But he may need to return to his family and delve more into his assassin side to track down Hisoka and have a chance at a fight (even in combination with Gon). And through that process, he would then finally need to address his family expectations (however that ends, at least to resolve this). Since Gon and Killua have never started in the "same place" in their friendship, with Gon at the "top" of his arc and falling and Killua at the "bottom" of his arc and rising and then the two of them shooting past each other in the Chimera Ant arc where Gon hits his bottom and Killua rises to near his top (peaking in the CE Arc), their friendship was always unbalanced. In the above proposed rise of Gon and fall of Killua, it would create a storyline where they can meet each other in the midway again. And hopefully, with BOTH their prior and ongoing character growths, they can now catch each other and proceed on to a truly unbreakable life time friendship finally moving forward on the same level together :) Those are my general thoughts on the 4 main characters. Can't say I can even remotely guess what is cooking in the endless mind of Togashi for the piles of other characters (except that probably the phantom troupe's conclusion will be a tear jerker)! Look forward to seeing what others have in their minds :)

I feel like Gon can either re-learn Nen by having it awakened again by a Nen master visiting him on Whale Island or by the off chance getting it back through Killua and Nanika, then they follow Leorio and Kurapika to the Dark Continent after the Succession Arc with the help of Kite and the friends they made in the Chimera Ant arc after a quick off-screen training session to equip themselves to go there. On the ending though, I guess before going there Togashi might pull off a Tomino and lots of notable characters die before getting to the dark continent, much more once they landed, we might have a bittersweet ending that could be different yet similar from the first ending with Gon being a legendary hunter and having a grandkid.

I can see a mix between two of the possibilities being possible. Basically all the powerful people get wiped out and so does everyone else from the Chimera Ant take over. Lake Mobius becomes apart of the dark continent since everyone dies.

my thoughts on an ending before watching the video: after the expedition to the dark continent they group comes back to the main land, founding that everything has change. All of the governing bodies of the v 6 have all been crashed by gyro. Who well the strongest people in the world was gone, Gained power and grow a force that would burn down the world. However a group of hunters (don't have specific members, but has Ging.) this group goes to whale island to Gon. This group helps Gon get back his nen back, probably do to something from a the dark continent. After that Gon, Killua, and the group of hunters go to end gyro and after many fights it end with Gyro is defeated. then it would go to the future where gon and killua are sailing on a ship after exploring the dark Continent going back to there families. showing us a world where everything was change thanks to the two boys. saving the world from Gyro and giving everyone they need to colonize the dark Continent. After Watching the Video: Yeah I like the third ending! Didn't know I had the some idea!

Your ending that everyone hates I actually love and I think it would ultimately fit Togashi and us as humans. We are all insignificant to the greater universe we need to just live our life and try not to think we can go above and beyond. Very fitting for Togashi humor

OOOOO the more you talk about it, the more I love the dark continent death ending. I would love more exposition about the characters, but I can deal with not knowing about the dark continent besides whatever kills the crew.... also... tessierdnich? I've only head it as "sir ride nick" but I'm far from an expert

literally watch your videos while i ride the bike at the gym for cardio. Love your content ❤️

My preferred ending for HunterxHunter I think how it would best play out would be Gon getting not nen back but instead acquiring a new power that would involve him bonding with one of the creatures from the Dark Continent gaining new powers from this and having to explore the Dark Continent with his father with this newfound power and Ging having to treat Gon right cause Gon’s a ticking time bomb but in the end Ging learns to genuinely love Gon as his son and fathers up like he should have originally and with this final Gon and Ging arc resulting in the story’s end would focus more so on Ging as the main character instead of Gon which I think would be rather cool cause it could explain a lot about the mystery of his character and keep HunterxHunter subversive by not following the same character constantly and instead treating Gon’s growing power level as more so an antagonistic force. I have another good idea on how Kurapika and Chrollo’s and Tserreidnich’s arcs would end but even though I think such an ending would be a genius ending to their character arcs just maybe not to all of HunterxHunter even if personally I like it even more than how I think the overall story would end.

I like where your ideas are headed. Personally, some extra detail I would like to add to the story in the controversial ending is about Gon and Killua's arcs. Gon already has reason to hate the Chimera Ants, so I would like to see him further devolve into that monstrous side of his. Like a relapse, just that now instead of just Kite, its millions of people dying all at once. Then on the way through this journey, I would like to see Killua realise he must flip his role in the partnership he has with Gon, and become Gon's "light" as Gon becomes a monster and completing what has already been implied. The loss of Alluka in the process would add motivation for Gon to further his vengeance, now looking for the person who allowed this Chimera Ant invasion to happen. Killua would be distraught, but ultimately see how Gon is destroying everything around him and attempt to stop him. Now for the controversy: A. Killua and Gon fight each other. Now Killua is either outright winning when he realises how hollow Gon's effort is, or he is losing but he gets through to Gon and pulls him out of the dark with some good old fashioned talk-no-jutsu, like Gon did for him many times. Together they lead the remainder of humanity through what is left of their continent, and try to rebuild society, teaching us about how even with the worst happenings around us, we cannot lose the spirit of a good person. B. Gon fights Killua, whom he begins to view as an obstruction to his revenge. He wins, and while Killua hits him with talk-no-jutsu, Gon ends up killing Killua. Gon finally falls apart and grieves properly. After burying Killua, he finds and kills Pariston, and leads humanity through the struggle afterwards, ultimately retiring on Whale Island, as seen in the fourth ending. C. Everyone dies except for Gon, and he is left to his own devices, unable to grieve, as what was once the human realm is absorbed into the continent. Gon descends into what Hisoka saw in him, a powerful monster, who survives until he dies of old age, with nothing but grief for his choices, and the Dark Continent moral about human pride prevails.

ATP, TOGASHI'S TWITTER IS JUST THE LONGEST EDGING SESSION. MYGOD (i hope he's well, i'm just being funny)

So is there like a form to fill in to say which possible endings we would like ? 'Cause honestly I think I would like all 3 of them. Like the bad ending is absolutely unforgiving but that's what the monster hunter world is supposed to be. The 50/50 seems to be the hardest hitting one, like yeah seeing one group discorvering the dark continent while knowing everyone back home is fighting a loosing war feels devastating. And the 80/20 I mean yeah I like drama and I like impending doom, but i also like good endings, I like when the good guys wins So honestly I'd take whatever Togashi throws at me. It might be rough, it might make me sad, but that's what a good story does: it makes you feel stuff

What about an ending which is a mix of all of them? People go to the dark continent, but 99% die. In the meantime, the world in the lake is "destroyed", while in reality the second-strongest guys + "good" ants (like gon's girfriend :P) go into hiding. The 1% returns and with the ones in hiding win over the ants and take back control. Good ending, great fights, all the pros of the dark continent, while all the pros of the gon-gets-nen-back, but still realistic in terms of human costs (which is what lacked in the Chimera saga) and human reform (because the worst, like Meruem would define them, die in the war).

I need a time skip after they reach dark continent and when they come back (only few of them) they see the world which parstine is ruling and now they have to defeat him as a final boss.

I feel like the only problem with the bad ending you said is that Gon, Killua, and Leorio would still be alive. The story we be complete until the story of these three are also over. I like the theories tough

In the 80% approval ending if alluka dies it would be amazing if gon and killua team up and get revenge on pariston. Maybe killua makes a nen contract sacrificing his emotions for more power so he can take his place as the head of the zoldyke family but later down the line gon eventually gets his best friend back

Love the content. I do have to say, even though you probably don't care, but I think the 4th prince's name (tserreidnich or tse-rreid-nich) is supposed to be pronounced "T'say-raid-nick" not "Tessy-aired-nitch. It's like listening to a Naruto video essay and the person keeps saying "Naruto Saw-coo-say and Sakura" it hits the ears bad enough to draw attention away from the message.

I’ve always heard his name pronounced “Ser-IDE-Nick”

Hunter X Hunter is about characters. Their arcs, their stories, they need to wrap up. I'm fine with tragic ending when appropriate. We all know Kurapika isn't likely to survive. Gon doesn't have to regain nen, if he even can. Just let Leorio become a doctor. Let Kurapika get answers about why the Kurta were killed. Give use closure. Could he have Leorio doing emergency surgery on Kurapika after a fight with a large number of alliances hanging in the balance because they didn't make deals with Oito, they made deals with Kurapika with Kurapika realizing that he may have lost his home but he has made many connections since then making him want to value the time he has left and Leorio saving Kurapika allowing him to finally forgive himself for not being able to save his friend as a kid... would that be more satisfying? Sure. But as long as they wrap up, I'm fine. Despite what I said, I still do want Gon to regain nen, if only for one final fight against Hisoka. Gon has the Paladin's Necklace. If that worked on texture surprise it'd be the greatest callback in anime history. Also let Kite do something. He was a nen master even before being a chimera ant. I can only imagine how strong and smart he/she is now.

For the first time in many many years …. Togashi will give us more than 10 chapters which is beating a record. He just finished his 11th chapter manuscript. Something seems different with him this time because of his insane work rate. He’s running through making his chapters and posting everyday without stopping. Idk what changed and why this sudden spurt of content is happening but we are in for a real treat. We might get two volumes or dare I say more?

I imagine the end everyone would hate a lot would be something like the main cast survived the trip and brought back a plague that made everyone lose their nen. I would hate that, lol

I don’t think wishing the Chimera Ants away would be too much for Nanika but instead Alluka’s death would be Killua’s punishment for having a selfish wish. Killua/Whoever Alluka asks wouldn’t be able to complete her requests after such a massive wish and as such Alluka would (not of her own free will) take away the people he cares about most, which includes herself.

I would genuinely enjoy it he 10% idea people would be dying crazy deaths and it’s just like this is just reality you will never know everything, and hunter x hunter’s would seems so endlessly enormously we would never be able to explore the entire thing in a life time anyway I think it’s kind poetic lol

zetsu nick, the principle is called zetsu

I would want it to end that they find something that finds a way to get rid of everyone’s aura

I always saw Henrigh as an attempt to write one of the german names hendrik, henrik or heinrich

i truly love the first ending you talked about. it would shows the price paid by humanity for being too greedy in a gore/unpredictable style proper to hxh, as well as being actually able to get an ending to it (we could have nothing)

Honestly I was wondering why JJK wasn’t hitting that hard compared to others? Then I realized I’ve been a ‘Berserk’ fan since 14

the real ending is pronouncing Tserriednich

It would be criminal to build the story up to the Dark Continent and then yank the rug out from under it all. If they DO all get wrecked one way or another in the Dark Continent then we need to see their struggles in some way. Their attempts to overcome are the story. It’s okay if they fail. They should fail. But Togashi is playing with fire by potentially opening that all up and then nose-diving it. Someone needs a come-up, somehow, and that should be the focus. Gon getting his nen back and fighting off the invasion back home would be excellent, but there needs to be more stakes than just “save the world”.

i like the 50 50 one the most

I absolutely LOVE the 10% ending, because it just encapsulates what Hunter x Hunter is.

I don't really understand your proposal for the second ending. Why would the Chimera Ants be that big of a deal? Every character who was instrumental in the assault on Meruem's kingdom is still in commission except for Gon, Netero, and Knov. I could see the lack of Gon causing a huge issue, but Netero only fought with Meruem and Knov was more or less just a recon/strategist. I can't imagine Parastin being able to gain control over something as powerful as Meruem, so that negates the need for the involvement of someone as powerful as Netero. Not to mention since it would no longer be an international secret if Chimera Ants attacked the entire world, all of the lower and middle class Hunters would be kicking around to do grunt work, and they now have the extreme power of Alluka. The true ending is that Beans reveals himself to be God, and blows up the universe.

Do you think there will be an update for baby Kite ( the baby that Colt is raising)?

His back doesnt hurt , hes out here delivering via uber eats lmao

I hope togashi writes a secret novelisation for HXH and its ending, so we would still get a full HXH series even if togashi dies 😢

i hate how nick pronounces everything at this point, i feel like it's a covert strategy for farming engagement, but i can never really be sure

Honestly the best ending for me is Death because it makes the most sense and is dark like hxh

0 Specialist-Ability ever has been Directly Offensive/Harmful. Completly overlooked Nen-Rule, right there, seeing how theres no way thats mere Concidence

I like the idea that most of the characters on the Black Whale die on the dark continent from their hubris. What I'd want to happen is that Hisoka ends up killing the entirety of the phantom troupe, everyone but Chrollo. Hisoka would then accidentally chase Chollo into Kurapika. Kurapika would end up killing Chrollo, but die from his own injuries as a karmic punishment for his unending pursuit of vengance. The Black Whale would then land on the Dark Continent. Some time after landing, a Dark Continent monster would attack. Beyond would try to fight it, but be killed in one hit, never standing a chance. After this, all but a few character die survive the beast's attack, and the survivors flee the continent. Leorio would be the main survivor followed, and the rest of the survivors should be people who didn't come because of pride, but to protect or were forced to come. The survivors would make it back to the main land, and would end up spreading the 6th calamity. Other than that I don’t know, but thats what I would like for the crew on the Black Whale.

I never though i would hear about hxh

wanted to say a few things: - togashi isnt just leaking hxh’s return, it’s almost here. every recent batch is usually 10 chapters, and he's currently been going at a pace of 3 manga panels a day for nearly a whole MONTH. he's 3 more days from finishing chapter 410, and if we're going based off the last batch, he started publishing again around a month or two after the inking of the 10th chapter - the "shutting off all of your aura nodes” is actually called zetsu, not retsu - terror sandwhich (4th prince) isnt actually the benefactor of the heil-ly family anymore. he used to, but then morena staged a coup and killed all the other existing members. when 4th prince found that out, he decided that he would deal with her "personally" once he learns nen - in the "killing game" ability of morena, you actually get your own ability at lvl 21, not 20 - in a q&a long ago, togashi answered a question regarding kurapika and the troupe, literally stating: "they will all die" - even when you go back to one of the first arcs, yorknew, it is clear that togashi already knows what he wants in regards to kurapika and the troupe, thus i genuinly believe not a single one of them will make it off the black whale alive (especially kurapika, he's literally participating in a death game, where he teaches a class which also has its mini death game, surrounded by troupe members on board and even if he makes it past all that he got to deal with with dc)

Honestly I have two that I’ve thought since they told us about how humans escaped the DC. First is that Don Freecss is somehow alive and is actually part of a family that were the leaders or high royalty when humans were on the DC. It would explain how Don was about to explore so much of the DC and how Ging and Gon are high level Hunters (officially not the strongest but think of it has a bloodline like the Zoldycks) compared to the average human. My second is that their are people who are still on the DC and are godlike with power(imagine Netero is an average person in the tribe). As they find them the people speech the same language cause Don taught them. Then give them the rest of the books and in the books is everything about the DC and it one of the books is a way to regain your Nen. So they go back to get Gon or bring whatever will help to him. But that’s just me🤷‍♂️I’ve always wanted to know what the DC has to offer and it’d be awesome if not all humans fled.

Humans that fell into demon world from yu yu hakusho and just populated and evolved in the lake. Dark continent is simply demon world either before the 3 kings were de throned or way after.

The most important thing to ask is what is important to the story. Character like Kurapika will need to succeed in their goals, and in the case of Kurapika, lose his nen due to the conditions he put on it. Gon getting his Nen back makes so much sense since he is the MC.. It didn't make sense to me that he lost it for good, especially because of the wording of the wish that saved his life. He was going to get it back, it was just a matter of when that was. The bad ending where everyone is put down is the one I thought it was going, since it makes the most sense to the narrative. I don't hate it, but wouldn't want it. It would be unsatisfying. One thing that would be important would be that we learn something about the continent. We should meet Freecss, or at least find his remains or a place he stayed at and the information he has should influence the peoples' decision on how to move forward. It will tell them they need to turn back or meet a fate worse than they ever imagined due to what Freecss has learned. Some will turn around and others won't. The whole ants thing will get sorted out because of characters that stayed back stepping up and paying some pretty heavy costs. Gon will likely get his nen back for this. Things will get pretty rough and the battle will go on for a long time with various skirmishes until the people that chose to turn back due to Freecss's warning and come in to turn the tide of war.. People will decide to remain on the islands due to the dark continent being nothing but a pipe dream and a waste of life to send people too.

In the kindest way possible guys, can we try and make all the endings equally rated so nick can pull his hair out for the next part in this? 33.3% in each lol

I'm cot up with the anime can someone recommend me Were to find the manga

Quick answer don’t have a lot of time Timeskip after the blue whale, Gyro takes alluka gon, killua, and young kite go after him kite or killua dies (gon has to handle death correct this time) after beating Gyro then gon and kite or killua have to go and find aging again.

Why would Gon wish for the irradication of all chimera ants when he just learned Kite might be one? And the literal lesson of the ant Arc was the blurring of the definition of ant/monster vs. Human? There are probably a bunch of good people in those 5000 ants

My Ending everyone who went to the dark continent gets taken over by an ethereal threat, Kurapika, the Princes, the phantom troupe, EVERYONE. They make their way back looking for more Nen to absorb and we find out Parriston’s Chimera Ant Army wasn’t actually to overwhelm the world when it was at its weakest, but to protect the world at its weakest. The ant army holds back the dark continent brigade long enough for Gon & Killua to find Gyro and Zigg who help fight alongside everyone…even those weird rabbit things from the hunters exam would have to help fight. We get a killua & gon vs Dark Continent kurapika & Leorio fight. It all ends with Zigg being the last one left because he somehow found immortality in his time on the dark continent and he just goes back there.

Nick you posted this a minute ago but ik you cooked

"Gon met his father, it's more than you got." Nick's just been on a roll with these jokes lately😭you alright bruh?

I always held the theory that the Dark Continent was a land humanity went to after a super extinction event or a world war that got out of control. Its stated ruins are actually there so humans did live and thrive there at one point but it had to be before it became the abyss that it is now. I'd really like to learn more about it or see it in a spin off. But considering how the artist wants to wrap it up and take his due retirement, any ending he choses will do.

This is what I think the ending should be like: Well I think, the ending should contain death as well as fulfilment of dreams and purposes( a warning I’m bad at remembering names so forgive me and if the ending sounds bad I’m Sorry) Well let’s start where we left off so we see the sheep thing and all of these powerful guys are travelling to the dark continent, we see gon sitting on island without his nen ability thinking what he should do next because he will not be allowed to go on such adventures without nen, it’s like he wouldn’t be allowed to do so, then he remembers what his father told him about the world tree and his father is going there so he thinks of calling killua and getting information about the team going to explore dark continent, killua finds all the necessary information and gives it to gon and then we cut to the boat that is going to the continent we see all these strong princes and phantom troop Etc all of them are planing to assassinate each other before they reach dark continent because they have a perception the more the powerful people the more the trouble it will pose upon them, so while we see this, we gon’s dad thinking about his father that, he must be still alive and he must be completing the book on the dark continent, he suddenly remembers a few flashbacks from his childhood, the last words he had ever heard from his father before he left for dark continent, “he said if I don’t return early come find me with a smile” and the world tree was just a small layer, in reality he always wanted to meet his father, he always admired his courage and adventurous behaviour and most all he always wanted to show him how good of a man he has become after his departure, we see gon’s father submerged in this thought, we cut to gon and killua who are now together on whale island

The real perfect ending is that Gon just barely handles the dark continent with the help of Kilowa while finally learning that he can't win by being stubborn and that true power doesn't come from him refusing to fail or from him being angry. Then after the big fight the story leaves on Gon and Kilowa finally admitting that all they really want in life is each other's company(Gon never had a reason to be a hunter he even sold his license he just wanted to find his dad) so they promise to live together on the island Gon grew up on with Kilowa's sister and Gon's family(minis his dad) just having fun and being happy like kids should

The way i want to end HxH is gon gets his nen back and travel to the dark continent so we can explore the dark continent through the MC pov and see how our protagonist and co protagonist handles the situation we want to see gon meets the troupe again and this time they fight together to overcome the hardship that dark continent contains

never fully exploring the dark continent would be the worst outcome for me

Togashi has never actually finished a manga in his life, and he has no idea what the ending is. 100% isnt any of these though that is for sure.

I genuinely enjoy all the content on this page, thanks for what you do brother!

Exploring the dark continent is like exploring our seas down below. Iirc A lot of earth is still unexplored esp deep waters

IDK, if you're a HxH fan and you're here for subversion and things being more "realistic," then I would think 90% of us would hate Gon getting his nen back. Killua already saved his life and Gon didn't need to pay the price for what he did aside from losing his nen. Now he gets that back too and is stronger than ever? Sounds like some other manga.

i wouldnt mind the 50% ending but instead of info drop on dark continent beyond netero gets humbled kind of like his father who survived the dark continent but chooses to stay away just like his father did

I like your idea for the 10% approval ending, but I feel like it would drive the themes of hubris home even more if the Black Whale party is able to get further than anyone has before, uncover some mysteries, but awaken/piss off some calamity thats like rank S or SS which comes back and devastates the world

my only problem with the 10% ending and 50% endings is that narratively, they kind of feel like a waste of time. With Gon's story mostly resolved, Togashi really didn't have to do the entire Black Whale arc if nothing is going to come from it. I think humans banding together to survive against Gyro's army while their leaders are all off getting themselves killed manages to succeed in exploring both the idea of hubris being a killer as well as the power of the indomitable human spirit being able to succeed with what they have. It would send the message that leaders and people of power are transitory and there will always be someone to step up and take a leader or champion's place in times of hardship, as long as people continue to have that desire to survive. It would wrap up the ideas concerning worthiness that were explored in the Chimera Ant arc. But the whole succession contest thing is very silly and the world leaders need to realize that numbers/teamwork would've been great to have once they get to the Dark Continent.

I think a good ending would be for Gon to reject the hunter life in some capacity, even if he gets his Nen back he refuses to turn his back on his loved ones in pursuit of his ambitions, in the same way Killua rejects his generation trauma Gon escapes his by achieving some type of middle ground between his ambitions and the people he cares about. The whole reason why Gon left Whale island was to understand what life Ging choose over raising him, now he understands why Ging left him in pursuit of his ambitions but chooses a different path. Throughout the series we see that while Hunters are often Intelligent and goal driven very few could be considered as "good people", while many are capable of things good and bad they often do so for their own agenda, Netero killed Mureum because *he* wanted to fight a Strong opponent, Kurapika became a hunter because *he* wanted revenge, Gon became a hunter for adventure and because *he* wanted to meet his dad, and throughout the series we see Hunters make selfish choices throughout. I'd argue when Nen is introduced the problem is exasperated because they're basically given power for leaning into those traits, by reinforcing their wills and goals Nen offers them greater power, if Kurapika pledges to only use an ability on Spiders not only does that strengthen his desire to kill them but also grows his power. I think what would be interesting is if Gon got his Nen back but placed himself under a vow that made it impossible to abandon his family like Ging did maybe "If I ever abandon my family I can never use this ability again" or "I can only use this ability to protect my family" would make Gon essentially the opposite of his father. Rather than choosing the path of ambition and forsaking his family, he chooses to live more humbly, maybe he could even be a Hunter but a less active one, maybe he retires early, he does all of his goals in his 20's but unlike Ging he'd be willing to give up his life as a Hunter for his family for his child, throughout his decade as a hunter he saw where hubris, selfishness, and unbridled ambition lead many of his friends and rejects it.He threw his life away due to his ambition to kill Nefertipitou and then Kite survives anyway making his sacrifice unnecessary, Kurapika dies trying (and potentially failing possibly ending with Hisoka finishing the job) to kill Chrollo sacrificing his life in the process. Even Netero while he had the facade of an old man was genuinely making an organization where monsters like Paristan and Hisoka are emboldened and praised for their debauchery in the pursuit of strength and other ambitions, so for Gon to eventually choose to reject or retire from the life of a Hunter would be meaningful. He could even write a book at some point like Don and give it to his family, maybe choosing to include them in his life in some capacity like his father never did for him, if Gon got his Nen back i'd like for him to become more introspective and develop more complex abilities, Gon grew up worshiping his father and idolizing him only to realize he abandoned him because he'd rather go to the Dark Continent instead, he sent him with Kite because he was too weak to meet his son with his friends and supporters who may rebuke him for his actions, when the time comes later down the line Gon is willing to sacrifice his selfish goals for a selfless reason like settling down at some point and he is ultimately rewarded. Rather than suffering a gruesome fate, or bringing home a disaster from the Dark Continent, Gon dies in peace with his loved ones at the end of his life, he gets his Nen after a great cost (If he gets his nen back there'd need to be another sacrifice) and similarly to what Mitou desired he eventually gets a regular job, or even better maybe he sells something valuable he has (maybe his hunter's license) to support his lover on Whale Island as he begins his life with her, or maybe he starts helping others achieve their dreams, rather than focusing on his personal goals now that he found his father and has that Closure he can support others like his aforementioned significant other, or Killua as he will likely grapple with more loss due to his family ties. i think ultimately if Gon were to have kids in Hunter Hunter and they were to pursue the goal of being a Hunter i'd want them to know Gon personally and want to be like him rather than them searching for him. Ironically i'd like them to even be a foil to the Zoldycks and their toxic familly structure, Gon's ultimate reward is at the end of his journey is a fulfilling life, it may be simple, it may be complex, but rather than chasing Adrenaline high's and adventure til he dies he chooses to sit down and "smell the roses" so to speak and be content. He is the hunter who overcomes that greed and selfishness that often dooms the rest of them and he becomes the outlier in that vain.

I love the everyone dies outcome, it’s so real

Is this a repost? Some real deja vu with this video

I know this sounds crazy. I know you'll never see this. But still. You are my go to when I have a bad day. And I'm having those more lately than not. I love your energy and the how passionate you are. It helps me take pride in what I do. Just wanted to say thanks.

I think that I'd enjoy the 10% approval rating choice

i have HxH Chapter 342 Animated

I thought the only possible ending that would be hated by 90% of the fanbase would be one that's just completely unexpected because it hasn't been set up, but no you're right. If the whole thing just ends that anti-climactically it would definitely be hated despite being hinted at. But I only feel that way if they never make it to the DC in the first place. If the Black Whale 1 sinks before it makes it to the DC and that's it, the end, yeah I'd hate it. There are still a bunch of open storylines off BW1 and ending BW1 like that would suck. If they make it to the DC and we get to actually put into perspective that the stories we thought we were following were the stories of ants on the grand scale, then I wouldn't love the ending but I'd accept it. My favorite ending is the BW1 making it to the DC, almost everybody dies but a sentient civilization from the DC decide to wipe out humanity. The few survivors from the BW1 make it back to humanity to warn them and there's a brief but brutal struggle.

The strongest hunter was defeated by meruem. Ever thought that what if meruem( strongest being we know in hunter x hunter) WOULD BE A LITERAL ANT AND BE SQUASHED!! By what's ever on the Dark continent the moment he set foot on it. Think about it. It's only Logical and easy for my boy to write everyone to their graves and killua, maybe by making him sacrifice himself to save Gon or something.... Gon marries killuas sister and has to live with one arm or something Due to battle, gon rages again, gets saved again, can't use nen again Happy ever after😊

So because I want to see more of Leorio I had this thought: What if Kurapika becomes a disaster after surviving the dark continent. Probably due to disease or parasite in which Leorio, having became a doctor, must save his friendly rival Kurapika.

The best comparison I could think of in terms of endings would be one piece. With the dark continent being introduced, it's similar to the "New World" in one oiece where only the top tiers and stringest can rule and thrive. If we were to get the 10% ending it would be as if either the straw hats immediately went to the New World and died/failed, or never went there in the first place. There's so much potential with the dark continent that it'd be a shame if that's the ending we get

I’m so glad I dropped HxH on chapter 1, I don’t have to suffer with the fandom. I was genuinely bored with the first chapter and artwork so I didn’t bother to continue, I’ll pick it back up once the story is “completed”. Also I only read manga, I don’t bother to watch anime.

The 10% approval rate story sounds like the best ending, but we need to have Gon somwhere there or it would be more like 3%

What if jiro gives Gon his nen back?
