Bye
I really wish there was more Gon vs Illumi content. This scene is so underrated. And while I get that Illumi and Gon have their assigned rivals/obstacles (Killu and Hiso), I don't think Gon and Illumi are explored enough by the fandom. There is always the 90s musical where Illumi is more of a threat and less nonchalant, thus is actively trying to get Gon out of the way. There's also that short fight they had in the 90s anime as well. In the 2011 version, Illumi is pretty blase about the friendship thing, probably confident that Gon will either die during the Kukuru mountain mission, or won't act unless given the signal to by his parents.
This arm breaking scene??? There is so much potential, and I am still surprised everyone just moved past it. It also showcases just how strong Gon is even without the use of nen against someone who is older, more experienced and arguably stronger. Maybe Gon proved how worthy he was by that alone to some extent. Break a Zoldyck's arm and live? That has to be impressive. Sure, Illumi didn't touch Gon because of Hisoka, but he also didn't seem angry at Gon's disrespect. He was still operating logically.
Here's a rant from someone who's been a HxH fan since they were 10 (I'm 20 now)
Hisoka is one of my favourite characters if not my favourite villains next to Illumi. He immediately had my attention when I first saw him. I really saw him as a force of nature, and I loved how unpredictable he was. There would be moments where he came off as a psychotic killer, but also times where he seemed pretty chill. I could never quite figure out what was going through his mind.
These days I think the fandom, which is now filled with Gen Z-ers, have kind of turned him into a bit of a joke (not in a bad way), but I still remember him as the man who held a lot of mystery behind him.
Now there's just one thing I always wondered about him, and that was his abilities. We already know about Bungee Gum, and the fact that it has the properties of both rubber and gum, but I'm talking about before Togashi introduced nen to us.
We know that Hisoka is a magician, but are the abilities the result of bungee gum, or was he truly trained in some kind of trick? Does he have abilities outside of nen? One example I will use is the Zoldyck family. They are super humans, and have abilities outside of nen, like Killua's long nails and being immune to poison. Then there's the Freecss family. Even without nen, Gon was still a pretty damn strong kid, he broke Illumi's arm for crying out loud (I don't think that's spoken about enough). So we the viewers know that there's a handful of superhuman families, so it wouldn't be any surprise if Hisoka himself came from one.
We could say that it's just the 2011 version being creative, but the 1999 version has fun as well. In fact, I'll compare the two.
2011: When we are first introduced to him he burns off a guy's arm for bumping into him. His arms have turned into tiny petals. When Hisoka and Gon officially meet, he disappears into dust every time Gon tries to hit him. Usually, Nen users would blur when they move very fast. Hisoka has a bloodlust moment, and one butterfly becomes hundreds. When he takes the tag from Gon (after he punched him) he makes 4 copies of the tags.
1999: The guy seems to have melted into a wall instead of his arms being burned. Then there's his fight with the knife guy (ep 15, 1999), nothing too special, but it's what happens afterwards. In the 2011 version Hisoka still has the injury on his shoulder, but in the 1999 version he does a trick to make it disappear/heal instantly (most likely an illusion). The butterfly thing doesn't happen.
Not to mention Hisoka's bloodlust. Much like Illumi's, it gives a sense of unease to anyone who is of close proximity to it. Even going as far as to disturb nature. Hisoka is superhuman, even without the use of nen. Unfortunately, we don't see more of his 'magic' in the anime.
