I fully agree with Milena! I didn’t want Killua’s hands to suffer, Gon could have asked even Hisoka to hold the ball.

2023-10-19 20:56:00 +0000 UTCAwareness of actions and consequences don't mean that a action is good or even bad. Regardless, in this scene especifically, I think the side that we see in Gon is more his self sacrification side with his will to fight and impulsiveness, reflected on others. He thinks that because he would sacrifice himself, there's no problem for a friend that he trusts do it too. I do know that Killua wanted to help and knew what it had to be done, but the problem is the fact that gon didn't faulter or looked apologetic in having to hurt his friend. This is not an usual behaviour and, even if I don't think that it is necessary bad, it do show how gon's thinking gravitates towards a more pratical, impulsive, throught his own lenses way, than an logical, empathical, mindfull one. (Gon is not even close to beeing only what I said. But I do think that this scene was made so we could see this side of him, and how it interected with the weird mentality that Killua also has. Especially since Killua holds a really strong admiration for Gon)

2023-10-18 21:22:33 +0000 UTCBut what has Gon did that was selfish that Killua hasn’t experienced already? Gon is saving everyone lives in their including Hisoka’s , Gon is doing nothing selfish. Killua knew what the assignment was
ForiegnKarma
2023-10-17 00:07:18 +0000 UTCI mean't Gon's perspective as in how Gon felt about the decision and it being a "sweet moment". Not literally his perspective, but I understand the confusion, haha.
Komikall
2023-10-16 23:41:28 +0000 UTCI only disagree with the show being in gons perspective. I think that it's the exact oposite of that since we mostly see inside other characters head, mostly killuas, and basicaly never inside gon's. Not when he is having some inside conflict or something. I also think that the lighlty of that tact helps you feel unconfurtable with it, and also realizing that it is a sweet moment for Gon and Killua, even if mostly wrong
Thali Alexis
2023-10-16 23:29:18 +0000 UTCcompletly agree! It is a red flag and a flaw that later on we see more about, but it is also a sweet moment for Gon and Killu. I think that Gon constantly waves between caring about others but also being intrigued and atracted by danger. And that makes him impulsive even tho he is not exactly selfish. He is a really complex character
Thali Alexis
2023-10-16 23:24:37 +0000 UTCI agree with your take, but I also think that the girls are mostly right. Like, to their relationship (A hunter and an assassin) is something normal and even friendly. But even tho, we can still see the selfishnes and impulsivity that gon helds sometimes. So, it is a red flag but is not that gon is a bad person or being a major bad friend. I think that this action is in the middle ground but is still concerning
Thali Alexis
2023-10-16 23:19:11 +0000 UTCGon is my favorite character!! Anyway it's getting more interesting. I'm so excited for more

Mikey
2023-10-16 03:59:18 +0000 UTCBefore Killua hands were even noticed of injury. They had a worried look on their faces & said Gon was scary. It takes away from the epic power scaling for Gon. Killua is a trained assassin I understand the sympathy of him being a kid but Killua knew the assignment regardless.
ForiegnKarma
2023-10-14 21:16:15 +0000 UTCthey're not bothered by him powering up, they're concerned that he's not willing to take an option that could spare killua some unnecessary pain. the other guy had more experience and could've held the ball for gon without getting hurt, there should be no reason to refuse him. and that's where the concern arises.

Nathan Elkin
2023-10-14 17:32:56 +0000 UTCI usually don't comment but I don't agree with your discussion about Gon. Gon understands that physical pain is much better than psychological defeat, it's easy to be the wise one and prevent Kilua from helping you, but how that will affect Kilua psychologically? Even if they won, Kilua will not feel right that he did nothing, he will question himself and be hard on himself just like Gon. Actually, even Kilua sometime stops himself from preventing Gon from dangerous situations knowing that it's much safer way than convincing Gon that he is weak.

Hussain Ghazaly
2023-10-14 08:45:54 +0000 UTCY’all concern when Gon is powering up & becomes dead focus just kinda bothered me because it’s like Gon is doing everything he can for his friends & even Hisoka to get out of there alive.
ForiegnKarma
2023-10-14 08:33:16 +0000 UTCAs the show passes by it stays more and more clear to me that killua represents the rational part of a human being and gon the emotional one... Gon matures enough to be more rational and killua more emotional in their decisions, they both grow and learn with each other how to balance both sides of those aspects in themselves Gon isn't thinking rationally here because he honestly didn't mature enough, you can see that several times in the anime when they explain something more complex and his brain just melts He's just used to functioning that way and that will come with a cost lather on in the show To me the main focus of this show is about that resolve in both gon and killua aspects, and of course, with a hell of a good history to support this.

2023-10-14 02:32:49 +0000 UTCYou guys are much quicker than most reactors on picking up on some things regarding characterization. Can't wait to see you guys watch more! I think the reason people don't really say Gon is their favorite character is because he is the the MC. Kinda how a lot of people that like Naruto wouldn't say that Naruto himself is their favorite. I think when people say Killua is thier favorite character they are thinking about Gon and Killua. And also I think Hisoka gets a lot of love because of his wildcard impact on the story outside of his definite creep factor. It's sort of like how occasionally people forget that Master Roshi from Dragon Ball is a pest until it is brought up in conversation or the show itself. Hisoka is a great outline for what a villain could be in a story (minus the pedo tendencies, so to speak).

2023-10-13 16:13:30 +0000 UTCHereditary is probably the scariest film I’ve watched, period.
Darrach
2023-10-13 14:00:06 +0000 UTCAnd it's also fair to say that the reason why Gon was willing to do "harm" to Killua was because it he felt it was necessary and also if the scenario was reversed Gon wouldn't hesitate to put his life on the line for Killua as well.
Rex Tan
2023-10-13 10:33:14 +0000 UTCBoth but it would probably be one of the best for her freaking out.
Cole
2023-10-13 08:47:08 +0000 UTCIs it that good? Or is it the Milena freak-out potential? Either being yes is a win for me :D
Isaac
2023-10-13 08:39:51 +0000 UTCI'd recommend watching a horror comedy like Shaun of the Dead or What We Do in the Shadows instead of something genuinely scary like Hereditary. It's ok to not enjoy horror!! I loved your discussion at the end about Gon and Killua's relationship, it's so cool to see you really think ahead about how their story is going to progress!

Karabo
2023-10-13 05:50:07 +0000 UTCGon is interesting and a lot of people's favorite's don't let this confuse you. I think the Killua vs Gon favorite thing is down to your personality. If you are a feelings first kind of person then Gon will be your favorite, if you like thinking and analysing things first then Killua will be your favorite, that's all there is to it really
Karabo
2023-10-13 05:47:56 +0000 UTCGon is a lot like his father, unfortunately... willing to hurt those they should protect for a goal, for personal reasons.
Jordan Crosno
2023-10-13 05:47:00 +0000 UTCThe scene with Nobunaga where Gon gets mad that Killua wants to sacrifice himself so Gon can get away makes it hard to imagine worse things being justified

ODIS
2023-10-13 02:58:39 +0000 UTCPersonally I don't think this show is all that explicitly judgemental of the characters, it kinda presents them with all their issues, without providing much commentary. This moment is undoubtedly a huge red flag, but it's presented as a sweet moment because that's what it is to Gon and Killua. And yeah I find it interesting because it's not really like Gon is justifying doing a bad thing to his friend in an "ends justify the means" way. He fully does not see the physical pain he's causing as a negative, because if the roles were reversed, he'd be completely willing to endure that. Because he's a freak lol. It does feel weird in a similar way to when Gon smiles whenever Ging gives him another obstacle to overcome. Imo it speaks less to the moral code of HxH and more to how weird these characters' ways of thinking are.
Payam Sharifi
2023-10-13 02:45:00 +0000 UTCYeah I'd say it's a moment presented kinda through Gon and Killua's eyes, which makes it a beautiful moment. To them, it is about their bond of trust and friendship. But at the same time, them seeing Gon hurtin Killua as a testament to their bond is clearly concerning, and it's easy to imagine worse things being justified with his way of thinking.
Payam Sharifi
2023-10-13 02:34:59 +0000 UTCAh yes the Gon discourse is getting goooood 😋 Great discussion!
Master Detective
2023-10-13 02:32:08 +0000 UTCI think theres a slight difference in the comparison of sufferings here HeavenlyR. While yes friends tend to make sacrifices for each other, the alarm L&M were talking about is when you sacrifice your* friend.... for a dodgeball game....
Cyr
2023-10-13 02:22:20 +0000 UTCHxH plays the long game so well. Too long for some people, but LM are different.

2023-10-13 02:10:14 +0000 UTCThe most concern thing is Killua ageism, he cannot see a old guy 😹😹

Masahiro Niizuma
2023-10-13 01:21:02 +0000 UTCGon choosing Tsezguerra to hold the ball over Killua would probably have hurt Killua more than his hands. Also Milena in anime the most popular character is very rarely the main character the only example I can think of is One Piece. Gon is usually 3rd on polls but he's my favorite because of his imperfections, people call them red flags I call it being 12 years old and growing up without a dad while Killua is far more mature due to his dad forcing him to grow up much faster than most kids.
HeavenlyR
2023-10-13 01:04:28 +0000 UTCThat's true, plus the way he got angry on behalf of the Troupe's victims. He has a good heart, which is what makes the red flags L&M have been correctly identifying so interesting
natan
2023-10-13 00:14:16 +0000 UTCLet's not forget Gon has the same willingness to suffer for Killua, training through a broken arm to get to him, getting beat up for hours by Canary and slicing his eyelids open to win vs Gotoh
HeavenlyR
2023-10-12 23:59:47 +0000 UTCI love how Milena's brain works
Harfie
2023-10-12 23:59:27 +0000 UTCThis ep is such a perfect crystallization of Gon and Killua's characters. Killua's willingness to suffer for Gon's sake and Gon's combination of sweetness and alarming selfishness

Orr Malus
2023-10-12 23:31:49 +0000 UTCIt's definitely one of the more complex friendships I've seen. It's shocking how much behinds the scenes stuff and foreshadowing there is. So much isn't verbalized and you really need to dig in deep for a lot of it. It doesn't help though that the show does a REALLY good job of masking most of it by throwing a lot of stuff at you. Most of which is still pretty important to the immediate plot. It's one of the reasons why I'm infinitely patient with Togashi. His story is so much fun to dissect.

Max__
2023-10-12 22:43:55 +0000 UTCI am so glad you guys were concerned and saw that as a red flag. I know the show kind of paints it in a "light" way, but it is something portrayed as a problem through the fact that Gon looks more like Ging after getting a bandage over his head. It is supposed to parallel and represent Gon's selfishness at the moment. Also, I feel like the show paints it the way they did because you're seeing it more from Gon's perspective and the show tries to evoke those feelings. It feels like it's kind of gaslighting you to think it's okay. All I can say is that you guys are the perfect viewers for this show honestly.

2023-10-12 22:42:07 +0000 UTCMilena watching hereditary would be incredible.
the chosen one
2023-10-12 22:41:58 +0000 UTCGon's power up to hit the ball is one of my favorite parts of this show, I love the soundtrack too, it's called "The emperor's time" and it is used in other badass moments in the show
Max__
2023-10-12 22:38:56 +0000 UTCGon vs Hanzo fight say it all. Hanzo asked him why are you going to such lenghts risking your life, you could give up now and try next year. Gon said if he gives up he won't ever be able to find his dad, so he was willing to risk his own life to achieve his goal. and now that he's fighting Razor, remember that Razor told him that his dad asked to not go easy on Gon. so Gon took it as a challenge to completely destroy Razor in his game. Gon is trusting Killua 100%, and Killua knows how crazy Gon is and how ready is to risk everything for his own goal, that's why he tagged along with him. "we gotta remember also when Gon took the beating for a whole day by Canary the Zoldyck bulter" he was willing to risk his life also to save his friend Killua. and Killua never forgot what Gon did. We as the viewers are like Mito-san we don't wanna see our little boys hurt. however i don't think there are any red flags or like how Gon didn't care about Killua's injury.

2023-10-12 22:25:25 +0000 UTCThe headband on Gon's head in this episode is similar to Ging's headband in the intro. Really looks like his dad.
ODIS
2023-10-12 22:22:36 +0000 UTCYou've had the channel for 6 years. This means you missed 5 Halloweens. Therefore you owe us 6 horror movies. Time to man up, girls!
Orr Malus
2023-10-12 22:19:57 +0000 UTCThat moment between Gon and Killua is always a highlight for me, the song playing right then, it makes an amazing scene. is it right? idk, in fact I would say no, but what it is, is crazy, completely abnormal which tbf is what the boys are as well, but at the end of the day it is trust and I find beautiful still after many years.
Giancarlo Martinez
2023-10-12 22:18:56 +0000 UTCI will say, Killua would never hurt Gon just for a win or pride. I definitely think we are starting to see more Ging in Gon
Michael Cannon
2023-10-12 22:18:41 +0000 UTCI knew you guys would be concerned by Gon this episode, and rightfully so. We’ve seen a constant thread of his selfishness throughout the show, and a determination that borders on obsession, but this is the first time it made me THIS concerned because Killua’s well-being wasn’t where he drew the line. I think it makes his character a lot more fascinating than other main characters tho. I think we’re meant to read it as concerning because every character in the anime is concerned, except Gon & Killau, whose outlooks on the world and friendship are somewhat abnormal & unhealthy. Killua’s attachment to Gon as his first friend, and Gon’s selfish & stubborn nature, makes their perspectives on the situation unreliable to the viewer. Rest assured though, their friendship remains one of the best in anime (imo at least).
jweher
2023-10-12 22:15:00 +0000 UTCThis episode shows the toxic side of Gon and Killua's friendship (I say toxic and exaggerate because they are kids). Killua is ready to destroy himself for Gon, his first real friend, and Gon on the other hand is more focused on his insatiable curiosity and stubbornness. He undoubtedly really loves and cares for Killua but his way of showing it is a bit different.

David
2023-10-12 22:13:50 +0000 UTCHmm that’s a good observation about Gon’s character. Is he taking things too far by letting Killua get hurt over a win? Maybe… but I think that’s part of their dynamic as friends. Now, they are obviously still kids, so they don’t know how these situations are not normal. Now, what would take for Gon to change his ways? Only the future might tell ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
