Hunter X Hunter/Characters: Difference between revisions

** [[Badass Abnormal]]: As of chapter 325, he's picked up the Nen ability that lets him transmit his punches through the floor.

** And now he's one of two remaining candidates for {{spoiler|President of the Hunter's Association, and actually has a chance of winning}}.

* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't call her real form a gorilla or she will make you regret it.

* [[Older Than They Look]]

* [[Moral Myopia]]: If you aren't a part of their little group, then you can just die painfully.

* [[Super Strength]]: In theory, all the members of the Genei Ryodan have [[Super Strength]], but in practice, Uvogin cranks it [[Up to Eleven]].

* [[Angrish]]: He doesn't lose the power of speech, but reverts to his mother language, Chinese.

* [[Generic Cuteness]]: Deliberately defied. Despite her knockout figure, her face is plain-looking at best.

* [[Mad Bomber]]: Obviously

A muscle-bound man who first appears to banish the Genei Ryodan members who were trespassing on Greed Island. Just seeing him is enough to make [[Hot-Blooded|Phinks]] stop the others from attacking, though they outnumber him six to one. Using a spell card, he sends them out of the game, while inviting them to come back and challenge him legitimately. Then, he casually destroys their boat with Nen. He later appears as the guardian of "Plot of Beach", a card needed to clear the game. All the main characters need to do to get it is to beat Razor's group in sporting events... really lethal sporting events. {{spoiler|Razor is a death row convict, captured and hired under contract by Ging Freecs to be a game master. His group are also death row convicts who he presumably hired. His name was the basis for the R in Greed Island's name.}} He can create and throw balls of Nen, treating them like volleyballs.

* [[Dodgeball Is Hell]]: [[Up to Eleven]]. By encasing a dodgeball with Nen, his throws are strong enough to deal grievous injury to anyone unfortunate enough to get hit.

* [[Freudian Excuse]]: {{spoiler|Flashbacks show him being beaten and told that he is worthless.}}

* [[Training From Hell]]: On {{spoiler|Ging's}} orders, delivers this to Gon.

* [[Complete Monster]] -> [[Noble Demon]]: He starts out as a monster who only lives to eat, kill and conquer, and doesn't feels a silver of care for anyone except for himself. After bonding with Komugi he starts respecting his guards and accepting the value of other lifeforms.

* {{spoiler|[[Dying Declaration of Love]]: The translator notes that her choice of words in one of her responses to the King as he's near death and she's also about to die is similar to a pledge of marriage from a bride.}}

* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: Pitou's speech to {{spoiler|Kite's}} corpse about how much fun killing was sounds quite a bit like Pitou is describing something else...

* [[Non Standard Character Design]] Chibi-pouf. His ability to strategize is not lessened at all, making him feel dissonant.

* [[Pretty Butterfly]]: Subverted to hell and back. He may [[Bishonen|look pretty]], but [[Psycho Supporter|his personality]] [[Yandere|is anything]] [[Manipulative Bastard|but]].

* [[Psycho Supporter]] Becoming more [[Yandere]] [[Ho Yay|towards the King]] as time goes on.

* [[Yandere]]: Is fanatically devoted to his ideal of what the King should be to the point of trying to change the King as he sees fit (by lying and trying to kill Komugi, though the King obviously cares for her).

* [[Non Standard Character Design]] He more closely resembles something out of a [[Butch Hartman]] cartoon on Nickelodeon.

A top operative in the extermination squad and works directly under Netero. He is a laid back old man. It's hard to make him angry or annoyed at anything, and when he enters combat, he will try to take the solution that requires the least amount of work. His nen ability is to create (tobacco) smoke that can form into any shape he wishes. They take a solid form and can allow him to do a variety of things, such as float or form ropes. The source of his smoke is his giant pipe he always carries with him; without it, he's limited to manipulating smoke he's already made by then. {{spoiler|He fights Leol and easily wins by starving Leol of oxygen. Cheetu then traps Morau in a savannah and challenges Morau to play tag with him. Morau decides to frustrate Cheetu instead and caught him off guard, defeating Cheetu but not killing him. Morau then fights Shaiapouf and almost easily kills him, but Shaiapouf managed to run away, taking Morau's pipe with him. Morau encounters Knuckle fighting Menthuthuyoupi and uses his remaining cloud warriors to stall for time for Knuckle. Menthuthuyoupi noticed Morau and decides to kill him, but Knuckle calls off his interest fairy and lets Menthuthuyoupi go to allow Morau to survive.}}

* [[Yandere]]

* [[Yandere]]

* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: In the 2011 series, Illumi is voiced by [[Masaya Matsukaze]], who is also known as the {{spoiler|[[Axe Crazy]] [[Person of Mass Destruction]] and [[Soft Spoken Sadist]] Teru Mikami}} from [[Death Note]].

* [[Uncanny Valley]]: He hardly ever shows strong emotion, and his features look painted on.

* [[Yandere]]: Portrayed as very much this when Killua is concerned. He quite sincerely believes all of his measures when Killua is concerned are completely justified. Killua has quite clearly stated otherwise, but Illumi isn't listening.

* [[Awesome but Impractical]]: His inventions, including one that blows up mosquitos.

-----

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: {{spoiler|Fights with paper of all things, and can slice through steel cable with a paper fan and dismember a Chimera Ant with flying streams of confetti.}}

* [[Meganekko]]

* [[Hidden Depths]]: When talking to Chrollo, she reveals how she got her Nen ability and also discusses her beliefs about the afterlife. {{spoiler|She also leaves Yorkshin quietly because her maid, Eliza, is heartbroken after her boyfriend Squala’s death.}}

* [[Jerkass]]: Upon hearing of {{spoiler|Dalzollene’s}} death, she cares little for anything but whether the items she wanted at the auction are safe.
