My boy Knuckle getting the praise he deserves

Knuckle is basically Leorio if he was a character that fought

I've always said Knuckle and Shoot were such underrated characters...

I had always related to Knuckle a lot during this arc, as he's initially depicted as a Kuwabara(YYH) or Okuyasu(JoJo) style punk but is slowly unwrapped as someone who could be considered one of the most human characters in Hunter x Hunter. He's not a strategist, he's someone who fights with his heart and cares about others so much that he would jump towards a city destroying Royal Guard because he wants to get back at him. We all need a friend like Knuckle. Great Video!

Knuckle is kinda underrated. He really gives his all in the chimera ant arc, he deserves more respect. He's one of my favorite characters in Hunter x Hunter.

"There’s a big difference between participation and empathy."-Togashi Yoshihiro Many thanks for the video

When Morel, Knuckle, and Shoot showed up , I didnt think i would like them. Morel seeming like the cocky and arrogant type, but it shocked me how considerate and caring he ended up being. It makes even more sense why morel would choose knuckle and shoot as his students considering their personalities with their fights with gon and killua.

Honestly though , the sacrifices Knuckle made during this arc and key decisions truly did allow the plot to shine bright.

It warms my heart every time Knuckle tries to make it seem like he is a tough, uncaring guy. "I'll kill ya, fool!" You're not fooling anyone you adorable dummy.

I would never fight a Knuckle hater Why? Cuz I don’t think they exist

Dragon dive on the capital is one of the best scenes in the whole show

I would love to see an interaction between Knuckle and Leorio.

Before watching this video. Just some thoughts on Knuckle and him having a big heart vs. his warrior heart: I've seen a lot of silly reactors not understanding Knuckle stopping APR against Youpi. Thought it was pretty obvious. He didn't want to see his fucking master die in front of him. He choose Morel over the fate of the world: the exact thing that was introduced a bunch of episodes before when Youpi X Shoot and Gon X Killua were talking about the greater good and letting the ''few'' die to save the many. Next to that we learned about Knuckles big heart through his connection with animals. So it made perfectly sense he couldn't fight with Chimera Ants who he couldn't see as a foe anymore. The guy has a kind heart for living beings. He even trained Gon while he meant to defeat him to go to NGL. Gon even said out loud how gentle Knuckle really is. Knuckle also has a warriors heart though. He has his code as a warrior. First, he wouldn't stand with Shoot being humiliated by Youpi and Youpi ignoring them. Then he respected Youpi because Youpi showed him respect as a warrior. The code of a warrior obviously means a lot to him as well.

I remember his introduction. Him walking through the city yelling for his opponents to come out and face him with a megaphone. That was when I realized he was going to be favorite character.

Knuckle is so wholesome

Anyone who says they didn't cheer when Knuckle landed all those hits on Youpi is a liar!

Totally agree with you regarding Knuckle. His character is crucial in highlighting the aspects of the human identity that are explored in this arc. Great character! Love the Hunter x Hunter analysis, keep it up!

Just another thing to love about Togashi. He makes amazing unique characters, but he’s also able to take very popular archetypes(the “delinquent with a heart of gold” in this case) and make them work arguably better here than whichever anime or manga from which they originated while making it his own. We’ve all seen authors of, say, the over saturated Isekai genre who are all too happy to plop in archetypes that have been tried and tested by many writers before them and do nothing particularly original with them because they already “work” well enough for the casual viewer. Togashi just never allows that to be the case for HunterxHunter. No matter how familiar or simple a character may seem he ALWAYS has something important to say with them, thematically or plot-wise, and this works in combination with the unique and specific world he’s crafted to make something both organically fresh and comfortably familiar to us. THIS is how you show respect for your literary predecessors while having enough confidence in your own writing to expand upon their successes to progress the genre.

Now this is what I like to see when I open youtube

As soon as Knuckle picked up the dog he instantly became my favorite character. How can you not love him?

knuckle appreciation week is every week

Excellent video. Knuckle is one of my all time favorite HxH characters, and definitely helped keep the darkness of the arc from becoming too overpowering.

Ahh Knuckle, the Kuwabara of the group. The “Human” side of the group.

Knuckle Bine. My emotional king

Knuckle = underrated Knuckle = my favorite character in HxH thank you

Just finished Hunter X Hunter last weekend so I can finally watch all of the high quality videos about it especially about one of my favorite characters in the show.

This is a wonderful celebration of one of my favorite characters in the series. Knuckle is probably right behind the main 4 as my favorites for his sheer heart, good will, and almost illogical optimism. I think this is even reflected in the ability he chose. He didn't choose an offensive-style weapon. He's a good fighter, but he chose a weapon that, ultimately, has the main priority of stopping violence from occurring. That has the main priority of resolving problems in as peaceful a manner as possible. With his strength, he could have easily gone for something that would amplify his power and turn him into a killing machine; instead he chose the ability to make one's Nen go bankrupt for a while, get them to a state where it would be possible to talk them into a better path rather than maim or kill them. Knuckle truly and whole-heartedly deserves the title of Hunter like few other characters achieve. His sheer love for and need to protect life are immensely inspiring.

btw bro love the content, these character thematic breakdowns have helped me get through a lot so keep killing it!

Knuckle went on multiple personal missions that would almost certainly end in death just for his friends. I wanna find a friend like knuckle

i like knuckle since he reminds me so much of josuke. both are good at heart, not willing to use brute force unless necessary, pompadour haired, both are extremely underrated

I love the moment when Palm is about to attack him with a knife, but he eats her food, allowing her to see his past, and immediately gives up... I wonder what she saw...

Knuckle is best boi in both HxH AND Sonic the Hedgehog

"How dare you not kill my friend?" Knuckle,probably.

Man I really loved knuckle’s character this arc is just so beautiful and I’m only an anime only.

Knuckle is honestly one of the bravest and most kind hearted characters in hxh he's basically how I imagined an adult kuwabara would be like

When I think about it, if Gon wouldn't be the protagonist of this show, Knuckle would. Just because of his good-nature character that always wanted to fight the bad guys despite his powerlessness against a strong opponent.

Finally, a video on one of the most lovable characters in Hunter x Hunter

the moment where knuckle finds that he is gonna die while fighting youpi was imo just too gr8

Yess more HXH!! Bruh i want the show to come back just to watch it, but also to see what videos u can make! Always great

His voice actor and Okyusasus voice actor are the same. Gotta love em both.

Can we talk about how Knuckle is just Okuyasu with a fully functioning brain.

This exploration of Knuckles character gave me a better understanding of who Knuckle is, as your videos always seems to do. More than that, it moved me. Thanks again for an incredibly entertaining and insightful video, looking forward to the next one.

Finally, it's out! Thank you for making my Friday better Aleczander :)

AJ keeps making my fridays so much better! Keep up the great work!

Two well thought out character analysis back to back, on characters incredibly different. Thank you, for your good work.

The puppy and Knuckle scene had my heart melting

its always fun waking up to a new aleczandxr video

I always thought he was a good guy regardless of his decisions, I could even go as far as to say I didn't think his decisions were stupid or worthless, probably because I believe that doing what is right is more important than doing something you don't believe in or something obviously wrong just for the potential benefits. What's the point of saving humanity if you let everyone around you die in complete despair.

I love your work. There are so many characters and stories unexplored, and your content reminds us of that

DUDE I was just binging your videos last night and I woke up to this! Your videos are fantastic, thank you so much. Keep up the great work!

Knuckle: Oi Josuke, I used my HANDs to copy your hairstyle. Ain't that wacky?

Your analysis videos are always so good explained, thank you.

finally some praise for hxh's best man

knuckle had to go throught the biggest dishonor to help Youpi understand what Honor really is...

Thankyou so much for making this!! I already loved knuckle so much because of his kindness and compassion and ofc his cool APR hatsu, but you made me understand him way more in depth :)

Many thanks for making this and all your other videos! I watched them when i was younger because i liked hxh but now I'm back older and hopefully I've grown wiser. The messages in these videos reaches much deeper than they ever did before and it increases my appreciation for the managa and its author, this content and its creators, and this life and its humans. Have a great day everyone

I always like your Hunter x Hunter videos, it helps me to appreciate the show even more than I already do.

I'm so glad I found this video!💕 I really loved Knuckle the first time he showed up especially the part with the dog 🥺 Such a genuine and wholesome character 🤧👌🏻

I was hoping you would make this video. Thank You!

When Aleczanxr or SuperEyePatchWolf drop a hxh chimera ant video, you know it finna be heat.

Honestly every single one of your videos feels like a really good college lecture and I love it, thanks for the commentary on one of my favourite characters in the show!

seeing you post a hunter x hunter vid is such a bliss

Opened youtube to watch one of your vids while making some ramen and this was the first thing on my home page. Always a pleasant surprise, love your analyses man.

Love the content, especially on hxh. You helped me understand the complex individual character and plot development as well as the intricate progression of the story as the anime advances. I would love to see a video on hxh as a whole as well as demon slayer and why they are such great animes. So happy u managed to reclaim your videos as they vividly show hard work and dedication. Keep up the amazing work :)

YESSSS OMFGGGG IM SO HAPPY YOU UPLOADEDDDD

Awesome work as usual!

Banger video OP 😤. Knuckle is one of my favorite characters ever to exist so thanks for the video.

Me: **seeing Aleczandxr new video* Also me:*GOD SPEED*

dude finally! knuckle made a impact on me in the arc. there is not enough content about him! and coming from my favorite youtuber? pure BLISS.

Seriously the best deep dive videos on KZfaq.

HUmmmmm that Radiant Historia ost... My man know his stuff. Great video by the way!!

Nothing like a cup of coffee and an Aleczanxer video in the morning

I really love that the two kindest characters in HxH, Knuckle Bine and Leorio Paradinight, are both Emitters. This shows that the most caring individuals belong to this category :))

I love your Hunter x Hunter videos they're always a fun watch.

whew.. i had wished for this content when i saw your video about Shoot & Knov cant wait to watch this. one of my fave characters and fave nen xD Thank you!!

Thank you Aleczandxr, for always rekindling our love for this anime.

This gets my sub. A great look into a great character. Had me tearing up tbh.

This was so good! Thank you for giving me even more to think about when it comes to this arc. And if that sneaky Trails music was any indication of things to come, consider me excited.

I've been waiting to see you do a video on him, thank you so much for showing this precious bean some love man. I'm hyped as hell to see what you gotta say on him!

Knuckle, Killua and Leorio are intrinsically good boys with bad boy facades

I feel like me watching all your videos are the same as me watching the chimera ant

Mathwiz and Aleczandxr uploading Hunter x Hunter analysis videos on the same day? Truly a golden experience.

Finally you talk about Knuckle!! I love his character so much, and your videos too. You look into every possible detail and explore it amazingly! great video man.

Im continually amazed by the complexity of the charachters in HxH Amazing vid, keep it up

Still love your videos man. Keep up the great work.

I've said it once and I'll say it again. These are some of the most amazing character analysis videos I've ever seen. Characters aren't talked about like this much on this platform and I'm glad I found somebody who can not only appreciate what a great character is but one who can also put why that character is so well written and necessary to a story into words that I'll never be able to do. Perspective is everything when it comes to character analysis and you've got a talent with how you can put that analysis into an extremely well written video. Cant wait for the next one

Fantastic work as always! Always thought Knuckle deserved more love and respect. Glad to see you did him justice. Keep up the great work!

Finally An analysis On one of my Favorite Underrated Characters of HxH. Knuckles kinda reminded me of Leorio as both start off as some typical hot head characters but then are revealed to have a pretty big Heart. Honestly Knuckles and Leorio help represent the Greater aspects of humanity in their respected arcs( Knuckles-Chirma Ant Arc and Leorio-Chairman Election Arc) and this was a great video, keep it up Dude!

I’m currently at Ep113, and OMFG this arc is just so majestic and beautiful. Knuckle reminds me a lot of Kuwabara.

Knuckle was one of my favorite characters from the Ant Arc and it makes me happy to see a video about him :D

We've been waiting for it, and finally... there's another video

I wonder what melody would say to knuckle if she heard his heart. Seeing that leorio’s sounded so good imagine knuckles, who I think is an even nicer guy. One of my fav characters from hunter x hunter even though he came out so late.

I'm just so glad this channel exists...

all ur hunter hunter videos have so much passion behing them

Love the HxH vids, keep it up💪🏻

I love your takes in the directions on the mindset of the writer's in specially Togashi

This made my day

Your HxH videos are the only thing keeping me sane during this record-approaching hiatus.

*It's time, adding interest*

Glad that you explored into knuckles character man, you've enlightened me as always. He really did represent the good side of humanity. His priorities don't seem right to most people but it makes sense, it's his identity and he can't live stand straying from what he believes is right. Hes so compassionate and empathetic and can see the humanity in even the darkest things and can love unconditionality. Love this man so much, he definitely someone we hope to have in our lives and also look after and guide. Great video as always man 🧘‍♂️❤️❤️❤️
