Summary
Hunter x Hunter is a manga series created by Yoshihiro Togashi after finishing Yu Yu Hakusho. It is the story about a child named Gon Freecss who sets out to become a hunter to find his father, who left him with his aunt when he was a child.
To become a hunter, Gon must take a special exam where he meets and befriends new people. After passing it and becoming a certified hunter, he sets out to find his father, encountering even more people and aberrations, both good and evil, along the way.
Concepts
Power of the Verse
Meruem is physically the strongest character of the verse. Several characters have the potential to be a high tier or greater, and many of the unseen creatures on the Dark Continent are said to be an even greater threat than Meruem himself.
Almost all characters are Subsonic to Massively Hypersonic.
Powers and abilities are based around Nen, which is basically an inner energy manipulation that grants users various supernatural skills such as Fear Manipulation, Paralysis Inducement, Death Manipulation, and Madness Manipulation when they inject their aura with malice. Nen also offers many unique skills, ranging from Illumi's Acupuncture, Neferpitou's Body Puppetry, Shaiapouf's Mind Manipulation, Hisoka's Adhesive Manipulation, Chrollo's Power Absorption, Killua's Electricity Manipulation and the list goes on.
There are also several powerful abilities such as Nanika's Wish Granting, Knov's Void Manipulation, Camilla's Resurrection or Tserriednich's Fate Manipulation. However, some of them work only under specific conditions, for example, Kurapika's Chain Jail working only on Phantom Troupe members.
