HI3 and literally everything Mihoyo makes is mid.
Mister Liam, do you think if togashi died the shounen jump would continue the story ?
This title is a seriously inconsiderate spoiler. Very disappointing.
This guys ability to pump out hxh videos during these hiatuses is a nen ability on its own
S tier Conjurer for sure.
@@ryancollins8837 It also somehow makes people watch it. So maybe conjuration + manipulation?
Hxh is actually underrated
Nah this is a specialist hatsu
Hahah good one
Togashi wanted to but Hisoka stopped him because “it wasn’t time to reap the fruit yet”
i read 'reap' assss something much worse for a second- i cant read-
@@wolfie705woah that’s a whole different genre mate
don't let that distract you from the fact that Bungee gum possesses The properties of Both Rubber And gum.
@-perfume and the gum is fruit flavored.
“I must wait patiently for the fruit to ripen.”
"No better example of this than Gon"
Yusuke Yurameshi: "Hold my beer, i'mma die in the first episode"
My prediction has always been that Gon already died. Because when Alluka power is used on him, they wish that he goes back to normal. But the vow he made was too powerful. So instead of removing the vow, she just kills him and brings him back to life, effectively “resetting him back to normal”. That would also explain why he lost his nen, but Ging says he could get it back. Because instead cured, Gon was actually “reset”. And this time nen won’t come as easy to him, but because of this, his nen and hatsu are wayyy stronger because he has to work harder and use it smarter. Which would effectively change his whole character and give us a new protagonist.
I actually really like this
This needs to be canon, it has to be
Unlikely death is undoubtedly more powerful than a binding vow I doubt nanika has power that let's her revive someone. Removing a curse is likely less powerful than reversing death
@@klipklapklop3359 so you’re just guessing, just like I am.
But in HxH, when someone dies, their nen become much stronger, not gone
Man, thinking back, gon stealing hisokas badge without knowing any nen was an amazing feat and deeply humiliated hisoka.
Hizoka is a cunning powerhouse but when he gets too distracted by his bloodthirst he can miss some details or the bigger picture.
Deeply humiliated isn't how I'd describe how hisoka felt in that moment, hes really just kind of surprised and pleasantly surprised at that.
Not humiliated, just surprised and horny imo
Yeah, you can see how impressed he is after it happened, he was lost for words. Also really excited.
@@thelatenightowl3079pleasantly aroused too
‘…is he dead?’
‘He’s Gon :(‘
Hehehe
💀💀
lol
Gon and kurapika i feel both have a 95% of being dead by the end
Killua is 50% imo. I dont feel like he should but i wouldn't be surprised if he did die
Leorio has a 10%. I feel he is most likely to survive, but if non of the others die i can see him becoming Collateral in the others self destructive behavior
Kurapika is 100% togashi said in an interview that he will kill off Kurapika in the end
@@Polar45870plans can change yo
(prolly wont tho)
Killua def wont die
@@Polar45870 he did not say he will kill off kurapika, he said that kurapika and the phantom troupe will all die. I wouldn't be surprised if kurapika does get killed though
I've got a theory that togashi reflects his own health to write and drow on gon's physical status
Everytime he took a break from drowing the manga gon was hurt bad specially his hands, i mean togashi took the longest break when gon was almost dead and came back with no nen, that indicates to me that togashi was not in health needed to write or drow the manga.
*draw not drow
HxH is truly one of the very rare few stories where there is so much layers the more you rewatch the better the story becomes. Absolutely a literary masterpiece
I think he's a little more cruel with Kurapika, because Gon gets arm injuries in place of dying, Kurapika is basically forced to do things he REALLY doesn't want to in order to achieve his goal of returning the Kurta Eyes. Like, his soul is steadily dying because he can't let go of the past, and he can only do things like protect the wee baby prince to keep what's left of his humanity.
Given the current story, the only main character death that would make sense is that of Kurapika. It seems to me that Gon’s arc should be finding his purpose as a hunter. Furthermore, Gon dying would not have as great of an impact given that he’s already had a close brush with death in Chimera Ant Arc.
Still it's equally possible for gon or kilua to die as well
The entire plot point for Alluka healing Gon was actually for Pariston's plan. Gon actually being healed was an additional happenstance that really bore no effect on the plot.
We love a new episode of NewWorldReview. Lets goooooo!
Facts fam
There's a strong implication that if Gon had stuck to the plan with Genthru he wouldn't have been injured at all.
yes, but who knows what Genthru might pull off. He could have kicked Gon off while he was charging up his jajanken while they were trapped. The only reason he couldn't think of it in the actual scenario and resorted to surrendering was because Gon had fucked him up mentally by his insanity.
Lol, that's true.....he would have had a way easier time if it weren't for his desire to prove himself and trying to Force Genthrou to go all in and refusing to go all in until he does so.
@@disprofundis3477 He could still fuck him up mentally with his insanity. He could have started ambushing him with throwing oil at him and triggering the trap immediately and then going Jajanken on him because he couldn't use little flower without burning and couldn't get time to explain his bomber ability without getting pummeled while talking.
@@saparapatepete That was going with the plan and Genthru knew that. He got fucked the moment Gon sacrificed his arms and kicked him in the face. And then when he went with the plan later, it became a perfect combo leaving Genthru with no options.
When did Genthru surrendered? He was only crying surrender to escape a very lethal punch he was in no position to dodge.@@disprofundis3477
Been playing with the idea that Gon gets killed off and triggers post-mortem nen, gaining all his abilities back and more.
You heard it here first.
I always thought that Gyro would be a threat to Gon (whether that be by being an enemy of humanity or personally threatening/killing his aunt or something similar) so Gon decides to seek out how to activate his nen again. Though the idea that he gets killed by Gyro (or someone else) and that activates his nen is interesting.
I have no idea until you point that out.
Damn I never even thought of this I often fucking wonder how he becomes so powerful at his peak fight with pitou because uvo wasn’t even NEARLY as impressive as maxed out Gon I really hope we just get a strong and credible explanation as to HOW he can become that strong ….. post -Mortem nen would be the BEST explanation
My prediction has always been that Gon already died. Because when Alluka power is used on him, they wish that he goes back to normal. But the vow he made was too powerful. So instead of removing the bow, she just kills him and brings him back to life, effectively “resetting him back to normal”. That would also explain why he lost his nen, but Ging says he could get it back. Because instead cured, Gon was actually “reset”. And this time nen won’t come as easy to him, but because of this, his nen and hatsu are wayyy stronger because he has to work harder and use it smarter. Which would effectively change his whole character and give us a new protagonist.
@@drakobby6418isn’t it stated somewhere that the nen contract Gon made pushed Gon to the absolute peak his body could reach? All it means is Gon’s peak is higher than Uvogin’s.
I was going to say, this mindset absolutely creates the very real tension experienced by the characters and therefore the viewer/reader! Such an awesome world building tactic, this is inspirational.
Couldn't have said it better myself, here's to another fantastic video from NewWorldReview!
Can you link the interview where togashi mentions he writes alternate arcs where the antagonist wins? I wonder if he’s go as far and drawn out the alternate ends and has them stored at his house? I really hope he releases a book with all the scrapped HXH ideas and alt endings.
Getting these occasional double doses of Liam review videos in one week seriously makes my day every time, i miss dude in a room toobjt i can see why hes been on a hiatus from those, i mean he has to sleep sometimes lol. I also wnjoy the blue banana podcast but im not into the podcast format as much as these highly polished single subject deep dives and only r3ally catch the podcast when im going on an extra long walk with my dog or something. Keep up all the absolutely atellar work as always Liam!
It's like in Prison Break it's clearly written with the intention of Michael Scofield getting caught. Writing yourself into difficult to seemingly impossible corners and then writing yourself out convincingly is the hallmark of masterful writing
It would be crazy if Gon's next nen teacher was hisoka. Who would slowely groom gon into the ultimate prey or challenge. Taking the time to refine the attributes of Gon he would find most entertaining. Though Gon has been reset it doesn't mean he has lost any of his potential. The training and lessons would also be more brutal and sadistic to engrain rational fear and consequences into gon by breaking him down both physically and mentally. The culmination of his apprenticeship being to kill hisoka before hisoka's lessons kill gon or worse.
thanks for another fun video liam!~ definitely cool to see how togashi writes, i really do wish he could heal but i know thats up to Nanika
That is such a smart way to write a story!! Never thought of that possibility, it is so smart and creative!
To be fair I’m pretty sure gon having to get hanzo’s or illumi’s badge would have been much worse senecios. Hasoka likes gon, so it all worked out. But that’s all hypothetical of course.
The dichotomy of you uploading two videos of the life of a one child and the death of another in the same day, is quite conflicting mister internet man.
I commented something like this on one of your videos 5 days ago. I’m happy to see I’m not crazy.
9:28 Ayyyyyyyy!! It’s Ax-hand Morgan and St. Shepard Ju Peter as a farmer in the background
Right when I think “There’s no more content for this dude to make videos for” he makes another captivating and tantalizing banger. Good job you.
I actually didn’t realize that Gon always gets a broken arm on his main fights 😂
he kind of story I've grown to love over the years, more then the standard one where we follow one main character all thrugh the story, is one where there is an overarching story, maybe even multiple ones, but the main character changes every so often, so a new one takes the spot for each part, very much akin to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Although I did enjoy this format long before I knew of JoJo or had even watched it.
If you are familiar with games like World or Warcraft, or Elder Scrolls, this is what I mean. Where it's one overarching story, with many different chapters and side stories, and the main character changes each time. Sometimes an older character may show up once again, but since they are no longer the main character, they can get killed off if needed.
I wish more stories like these would be made.
No thanks. Those are nice and all but they are different for a reason. If every story was like that it wouldnt be special and annoying. Also alienating people who like the traditional consistent main character of a story line.
I loved the Hisoka theory video you did last and this one being a Gon one hmmmmm something nefarious going on 😅
That last shot led me to believe you like HxH even more than One Piece. Good boy 😆
what a masterful look into this type of writing.
What if Wing restricting Gon's nen in this season was a for telling for now? Remember wing told him to just practice his basics but the moment nen is used the charm will snap. Maybe something similar will happen soon if he does not attempt to use it eventually it will come back with the basics of training.
I mean his nen was already sort of returning when he was climbing that tree, sensing its lifeforce (nen) to navigate, wich is the first step in learning nen
You should make a few videos about the dark continent. Like who you think is actually going to get there to begin the exploration, are there actually people there besides don freecs, what type of nen we could see
I just realized that hisoka is shounen freddy kruger
You mean more like it the clown from that Stephen King movie
@@laquanlucas6953 nah, it isn't a pedo. Kruger is
@@ODDiSEE_ hisoka act like that fam
I wish there was a way to instantly create content lol because I want a razor backstory. He’s so got damn powerful but we don’t get to see him show it for real
"But if you leave the camera rolling"...
This may be quite random but I never noticed until this video that they reversed the color of gidos tops and his robe, the older 90s run had red and yellow tops with gido being mostly black/grey. lol I wonder if that was done to make him standout more against the darker backgrounds
Keep up the awesome work and videos Liam love the video
Gon could start being an entirely different person after the chimera ant arc I mean having his nen stripped and all the the things that happened to him in that arc could've drastically changed him and what better way to show that he's changed in someway than to change his *nen affinity* I mean it would be quite interesting like making gon into a specialist based of his recent behavior of being independent now which specialist are known to be (leaving killua, doing his own things and having contact with his father who he himself is doing his own things) therefore giving togashi more creative room to do whatever he wants with gon I mean its not impossible for gon to become a specialist his father is one and his nen was stripped away and it'll be interesting to see cause enhancers has the least chance of becoming a specialist which no one in the manga has yet to do but with this change you can make gon have new goals, new abilities and potentially grow up with his father figure; ging finally being around and gon can become more mature and become a totally different person/character cause he's still a kid growing up, many people that have grown up are not exactly the same character as they were as kids cause of their experiences and hunters are known to be selfish creatures so gon can easily get new goals or selfish desires etc.
He wrote an ending with Gon as a grandpa though….
The first 2 minutes of this video hit the nail on the head.
funnily enough, i think keeping a character like gon alive in the world of hxh is a more difficult challenge than killing him off. losing a protagonist is sad/devestating, but then that character merely becomes a memory and doesnt have to engage in any more situations, kind of giving the author an out. i think togashi revels in the challenge. that said, gon should at the very least have some visible battle scars from his stint on "active duty"
I mean it's a miracle how he's even alive. His stubborness put his friends in a lot of danger so many times. Don't get me wrong though, he's still one of my fav character.
yeah, i think the same but then it just hits me that gon never actually found his purpose and we didn’t got a closure of that
I love your videos, your editing, your goofs - just one comment..
I can't stop looking at your nose. Is the light playing an optical illusion or did you break it at some point? You're still a very handsome boi and if anything it adds to that but I just have to know. 😅
But Gon doesn't want to die. And he aggressively and successfully resists The Togashi, albeit with hard work and terrible losses.
Personally, I hope none of them will die...
And Togashi's health will improve, and Gon will regain his nen and continue Hunt for Hunters.
HxH universe and system are so complex and unique, and, if this world will dissolve... it would be a great tragedy.
take a sip every time Liam says "GON"
I think this approach to storytelling is the only process that allows for the Chimera Ant arc to exist. While humanity won, Gon most definitely lost and Mereum ended up where he wanted - even if he didn't know it, and even died.
Hisoka getting your phone number is a fate worse than death
Not the doflamingo dog shirt😂😂
Gon and Killua are only allowed to die together after they've grown old and boring, these characters mean too much to me to let their story end any sooner
Kurapika is in more danger right now then gon ever was
This from the mangaka who immediately killed Yusuke in YYH. To avoid spoiling the later events I won't be specific: but if this is Togashi-san's mindset about his protagonists, then the things that end up happening to Yusuke makes SO MUCH more sense.
Can you please do a video about what your hatsu would be if you were in HXH
If this man really wanted his MC dead he wouldn't have created a sibling out of nowhere to the side-protaganist who's literall ability is the ultimate retcon. The MC is not dying anytime soon and probably never. With the almost permanent hiatus the latter is pretty much guaranteed
This is getting good
Got to love a double feature
The more you seek life, you'll surely die. But the more you seek death you'll find life.
~unsure who said this
Don't say "Quarter of a century ago". LOL... That's so depressing thinking about the time gap like that. HOLY COW... I'm really now starting to feel old.
Nah the ending D he said he lived for so long and even has grand daughter
But the ending D was the one that was scrapped and should have never been canon, but is only because of the possibility of Togashi dying
@@Cl3m0ntine But still we can get a general idea tho. It is post credits
Ok, I get what you are saying after watching the video. Thought you were origonally saying he had changed his mind and wanted him to die.. after just saying he wanted him to be less of a character to focus on.. but you make really good naritive points for things to talk about.
It is interesting to write a character like that just just find ways out of it.
I was like "what?!" When I saw the notification 😭😭
I mean looking at his ending D, I highly doubt that. But at the same time I guess I could see it assuming his other endings are drastically different
Looking at Gon’s current Nen-less but alive status solely in terms of Gon himself may not be the full picture. Personally I think Togashi may have decided not to kill Gon not for Gon’s sake but for Kilua. How would his best friend’s death have changed Kilua going forward?
Do I need to remind you of the abilities of bungee gum?
It’s rubber and glue
That's the reason why HxH is my favourite anime. I didn't know why at first, except for the fact that I only knew he was doing so many things differently in the shounen sense. The way he built the world truly showed that Gon was always in danger.
To this day I am always incredibly sad when people get so intensely hyped when Gon throws everything away against Pitou.. It is a sad moment where a young boy deals with grief in perhaps THE worst way possible, by giving into blind rage and throwing away everything. It has always been such a sad moment for me, and I'm sad to see that so many people see it as a triumph or a win when it is decidedly not.
Who knew all the times I watched/read HxH there were a lot of times Gon should've bit the big one but survived due to plot
Still needs to meet Gyro
Why doesnt togashi hire assistants to draw the manga while supervising them instead of indefinite hiatuses??
closest thing we get to more hunter hunter and it feelsgoodman
just notice the nose maybe the lights highlights it hehe
Ah, but we all must remember that bungee gum contains the properties of both rubber and gum, and so there is always hope.
I hope that Togashi decides to give Kurapika a happily ever after, or if he does die, then Alluka could use her powers to resurrect him 😢
Togashi be like:
Put that Gon in a situation
Day 6 of trying to convince@NewWorldReview that the man on a dragon that's on top of another dragon is don freecss
If we learned anything from akira and DBZ they probably wasn’t gonna LET togashi kill gon
TOGASHI'S PULLIN A JJK😂😂😂
gratz on the honkai sponser
I did it, I downloaded the game using your link cause you're cool.
We don’t no yet
There is a rumor that Togashi wanted to kill Yusuke during the fight against Sensui (Yu Yu Hakusho) and the others would defeat the antagonist (Sensui) but Shonen Jump didn't approve the idea and then he came with the resurrection idea on that other manga.
Probably in Hunter Hunter he has more liberty.
Watching the anime I didn’t really feel any tension because I know he can’t die. So even in situations where it would seem doomed for Gon. You know he’ll get out of it somehow. There are some incredibly well done emotional moments, but the stakes never hit.
The majority of shoun and hero content in general
There are many speculations but will it even continue😂😂
I have no idea how you keep making hxh content
reminding that 1999 is a quarter-century ago made me laugh hahaha. i loved the 1999 version more than the 2011 version.
00:02 Togashi actively writes with the intention to kill his protagonist at any time
01:40 Togashi wants Gon to face danger head-on
03:20 Togashi wrote Gon into a corner of death
04:58 Gon faces intense challenges without fearing death.
06:40 Togashi's recipe for tension in Gon's death
08:18 Togashi plans to force Gon into deadly conflict with Razor on Greed Island
09:59 Togashi's desire to kill off Gon leads to a dramatic outcome.
11:36 Togashi's intention to kill off Gon
1:57 maybe gon vs kurapika couldve been worse? atleast it wouldve been pretty bad
Using the theory of gon being born by the greed island cards I think gon is just a failsafe for Ging in case he dies in the dark continent. Gon would be like a little clone of ging who`s supposed to live a normal life with mito.
Togashi has no contest.
I don't think Gon will die, I think he has 100% stopped mattering to the story. We are now redoing the story but this time Ging is hunting his elder.
he did the same to Yusuke
At this point we should just use the phrase "broken arm" when referring to characters that die in situations where we can't talk about death.
Fan : "Did you see the episode yesterday? It was brutal."
Other Fan : "Oh yea? Did 'Hero' break any arms?"
Fan : "Bruh. 'Hero' broke all the arms."
Hisoka won't kill Gon yet, but Illumi on the other hand would have ended him with in seconds... so giving him Illumi's number or reverse would have been worst case really.
But Gon never dies according to Togashi Gon lives a long life having grand kids in the ending he gave the world
That was ending D that Togashi decided he's not going to use, but I think he said if he unfortunately passes away before finishing HxH, then people can just think of that as the ending for the story.
@@aura7117 it’s not finished, so for now that’s the ending, and he already knows he’s not finishing it hence why he gave us an ending for us to consider as the true ending at least until otherwise said by him
gon
Thank you for keeping the fire lit. 🎉
I love the threate that hisoka pose but the resolution is pretty weak and hisoka become a joke: you know he wont kill anyone under the excuse they are not ready.
I would love to see this author with complete freedom, without the deed to keep going with the same story like many manga of the same genere do
The side characters are way more interesting anyway so i wouldn't mind
What if Gon were to sacrifice himself to save the three friends (Kurapika, Killua and Leorio) from a devastating death?
Most plausible ending I'd say.
@@johnnygalaxy9022Yeah, maybe he would make a deal with Alluka if something like this happen.
Remember in the beginning where he was having difficulty between saving son and daughter quiz question? I think that’ll come back for real and the consequences might be gon choosing to die to save both.
@@mouli1216 Ohh.
