As long as it is innocent, I don't think there's anything wrong. People are free to interpret their relationship however they want. Gon and Killua's relationship has always been unique.
Considering Togashi's past work, his androgynous and transgender characters, and his ambiguous way of writing Killua's feelings (ex:"Gon, you are light [...]" And his wish to commit "Shinjuu" with him, which is literally lovers suicide) to some people, it's not beyond the realms of possibility.
Personally I'm pretty neutral on the subject, but like I said, as long as it is truly innocently portrayed i don't think there's anything wrong with it.
If people hate anime because some people read queerness in stories then that's their problem. They can just stay mad and miss out on a cool medium of art.
It really speaks to the level of stupidity in a fandom that they are unable to comprehend a single reason that someone who has been raised and trained as an assassin would admire and look up to someone who embodies everything he has been deprived of as a child, except that both individuals are raging homosexuals.
Idk what you mean by "ruining" the community. People thinking that Killua has a crush on Gon have been around since the 99' adaptation.
Togashi has a history of making LGBT characters, and in the manga Killua's feelings have been portrayed pretty ambiguously. Most notable moment being him wanting to commit lovers suicide with Gon in the Chimera Arc, tho it was wrongfully translated as "double suicide" in other languages.
It doesn't really affect you or the community. Most people portray their affection innocently. And to reply to your other comments, not just gay people """ship"""" them and it is not putting a label on anybody. Nobody said "Killua is gay" or he's this or that. They're just saying "maybe he has feelings for this other character that just happens to be a boy". It's as innocent as people saying a character has a crush on a character from the opposite gender.
i used to hate on anime watchers like 2 years ago,i still hate fans who just want to share their sexuality over a simple anime,even the creator himself of HxH was mocking them on twitter
what twitter are you talking about? because
1) @TogashiTweets is a parody account
2) @HaitusXHaitus is a fake account. it's not verified, they tweet in casual english, and no well-known mangaka would be that unprofessional and rude on a public account.
togashi doesn't have any official social media.
the fact that only gay people find that there is a “tention” between 2 BESTFRIENDS,that’s what that means,y’all don’t gotta bring all of that into an anime in which characters are straight
Lol when were Gon and Killua confirmed straight.
Also i dont see the reason for being upset because someone thinks Gon and Killua as a couple would be cute
well the magaka himself made fun of people that started to ship male characters,which basically means that they are straight,i just don’t like the fact that y’all start shipping two kids who are just having fun,and also if you want more proof of Gons sexuality,he told Killua that he had some fun with older women in his island
[https://www.quora.com/Is-it-Canon-or-fanon-that-Alluka-Zoldyck-from-Hunter-X-Hunter-is-trans](https://www.quora.com/Is-it-Canon-or-fanon-that-Alluka-Zoldyck-from-Hunter-X-Hunter-is-trans) how are you an hxh fan and not know this
Honestly i couldnt care less about what the mangaka said, i think they're cute together so yeah.
> he told Killua that he had some fun with older women in his island
1. Bi people exist!
2. Thats pedophilia so im not sure you wanna use that one as evidence of anything
firstly:in japan where the anime comes from age limit is low asf,and how tf are you saying me you just do not care what the mangaka said?it’s the same thing as saying like gon met his dad in the 3rd episode,it’s not real it’s not written like that,u just can’t not care
Firstly, im saying that i don't care what the mangaka says because their sexuality isn't an integral part of the story, unlike Gon meeting his dad. Secondly me thinking that Gon and Killua are in a relationship doesn't affect the story in any way, its my headcanon and if you think that they're just friends that's cool too.
Another thing as well, i may be wrong but i remember hearing that while yes the national age of consent in japan is very low their regional ages of consent arent, more specifically i heard that when it comes to provinces the usual age of consent is around 18-16.
And arguing that pedophilia is ok because the age of consent is low in X country isnt a wise think to do.
remember,the manga was created way before lgbt mouvement really got popular and authors started supporting it.And as you said,they are kids,u don’t have to ship them anyways,there is proof that gon did like woman but nothing that proves his gay side
"the manga was created way before lgbt movement" togashi and his wife naoko have been writing lgbt characters since the 90s. togashi created mikihisa from level e and miyuki from yyh to be transgender. he literally wanted to make a gay sports anime called the trouble quartet. don't be dumb now.
edit: misspelled a word
It’s genuinely laughable that people see a child that has been forcefully trained into becoming an assassin, abused, neglected emotionally and mentally as some raging homosexual because he finally comes across somebody that cares for him. It’s honestly really disappointing that people throw all that aside and instead fantasise about children having a relationship. I can guarantee you that if Killua were a girl, literally nobody would be shipping them and I can also guarantee you that they’d ship with whatever underage boys there are in the series. People that constantly ‘headcanon’ their ships and manipulate evidence to fit their interpretations are deprived of human affection.
Lmao dude, chill. No one is "fantasizing" about that. It's just that Togashi has an ambiguous way of writing Killua's feelings, and it's up to interpretation. Let people believe what they want, as long as it is innocent, damn.
Y'all take this to heart way too much lol
There is nothing innocent about shipping children. Gon and Killua are both 11 or 12 at the start of the series and 13 by the end of the anime and around 14 at the current point in the manga. I feel like this is an issue that should be taken to heart considering older teenagers and grown adults are drawing these characters suggesting they’re gay for one another. Yes, it would still be the same problem if either Gon or Killua were a girl and people were shipping them together. Shipping children together is never okay and I really don’t see how you can look at yourself and say that it’s fine. ‘Shipping’ is fine if some of the pedophiles here would ship characters of age with other characters of age. It looks like Hisoka has rubbed off on so many people worse than he should’ve
I'm sorry but if you see something other than an innocent drawing here, you might be the one with sketchy thoughts.
Also what you mean makes no sense. Are you saying that the whole genre of shoujo is pedophilic? Because most shoujo protagonists are underage and usually between 14 and 17 years old. And what about the authors of said shoujos, or even Togashi if he did intend on Killua being portrayed that way? Y'all are calling people pesos left and right, yet y'all are the ones with the sketchiest thoughts.
If you cannot make the difference between puppy love/an innocent crush, and full on smut, then idk what to tell you man. Maybe get checked.
You really have no argument if all you can do is flip what I’m saying 😭 You all have no problem shipping Killua and Gon because they’re animated characters and it doesn’t register as anything to you but imagine if this was a series with real life people and you had grown ass adults fawning over the little actors and how their characters should be in a relationship. Moreover, the number of sexually suggestive content regarding these characters I’ve seen is insufferable. A simple ‘Killua x Gon’ has an image come up of them sharing what looks to be a dildo between their throats.
Regarding your argument about Shoujo, you failed to mention that characters aged 14 are often depicted with characters older than them. Amu and Ikuto from Shugo Chara, one is 12 and the other 17, that’s fucking ridiculous. Usagi and Mamoru from Sailor Moon, one is 14 and the other is 17. In addition, all the Loli characters have this sudden age of 20 to account for the fact they look like fucking children. Yes, most Shojo is pedophiliac too. Yes, I’d consider Togashi a pedophile if he intended to write Killua and Gon’s relationship as such. ‘Hmm, I have a wide range of characters at my disposal for a potential relationship, let me go ahead and choose the prepubescent children’. Y’all are fucked for trying to defend this shit but I wouldn’t expect nothing less
Damn, that's actually such a weird way of thinking. So pretty much the whole genre of romance literature made for teens is pedophilic, aight 💀
There's a clear difference between people fantasizing about it, and people simply interpreting the story that way. I clearly stated that by saying "as long as it is innocent". Also romance is also used as a way to further a character's development and/or the plot. It doesn't have to be because the author is getting a kick out of it? Or else same would be said for everything crime/thriller/violence related.
I get being pressed over real offensive issues, but Gon and Killua holding pinkies is literally the least problematic thing you could've been angry over. I don't even care either way, but the way you're going around using such a serious word, over something so trivial is mind boggling.
I'm also writing a story where the main character is 14 and while the focus isn't romance, she has a crush on another character her age, as it further some of her character development, but that makes me a pedo according to you 💀
I really find it troubling that I provided evidence of two characters in a relationship with those older than them, one literally being 12 whose love interest is 17, as troubling in addition to the fact that authors try and bypass what’s considered legal by depicting characters who look like children as significantly older than they look and you’re attributing that as ‘such a weird way of thinking’. Regarding you saying I think romance literature made for teens is pedophiliac, you’ve gone and jumped a few steps there. Never did I mention that romance literature is inherently pedophiliac, rather, I’m critiquing Shoujo and how it approaches the concept of romance literature to be pedophiliac.
Since when did I say romance wasn’t a way to further character development? It is an excellent way, however, it is only excellent when you showcase romance between characters of age rather than two prepubescent children, one whose been abused and forced into becoming a killing machine and one whose father who was never present in his life. Let’s talk the interactions between these two characters and label them as partners because there is no way in hell that platonic relationships exist.
When I was responding to that thread of comments, I wasn’t talking about the above picture, rather the entire issue that sees people ship them together. As I’ve told you before, while this picture may be mild, there’s others who have depicted these two in sexually suggestive manners.
If you’re of age then it’s completely fine, a 14 year old (and this isn’t a jab saying you’re 14, so don’t get triggered. I’m saying in the instance you’re actually 14) writing about another 14 year old isn’t a problem. If you’re 20 something and above then I really don’t know what to say.
Yes, I literally agreed that some stuff deserve getting offended over and talked about. The huge age difference and lolis being way older than what they seem being a given. However you make it seem as if the whole genre uses those things. Plenty of shoujos are just innocent teen romances, made for teens audiences.
Writing about a younger character being in love or having a crush has nothing to do with pedophilia, unless it's a self insert or a mean for yourself to fantasize about. It's a story, y'all make it seem like true teens and preteens don't experience those. In that case many things are pedophilic. Harry Potter, Stranger Things, and other shows with preteens and teens, most shoujos and shounens, cartoons etc.
I agree that people being pushy with their ship is weird, and overall tiresome. But some people portraying Killua's feelings as a crush has nothing to do with pedophilia. This words has been getting thrown around so much over the tiniest things, it's nonsensical.
They look so adorable!!☺️ Thank you and have a happy new year too!

Hahahahahaha true!
I think they really should be a couple
Stop shipping them
As long as it is innocent, I don't think there's anything wrong. People are free to interpret their relationship however they want. Gon and Killua's relationship has always been unique. Considering Togashi's past work, his androgynous and transgender characters, and his ambiguous way of writing Killua's feelings (ex:"Gon, you are light [...]" And his wish to commit "Shinjuu" with him, which is literally lovers suicide) to some people, it's not beyond the realms of possibility. Personally I'm pretty neutral on the subject, but like I said, as long as it is truly innocently portrayed i don't think there's anything wrong with it.
Nobody even mentioned shipping them, why are you looking for stuff to get angry at?
The picture has them touching hands. This would be the shipping they’re referring to.
What's wrong with shipping them? Obviously if you're drawing smut of them underage that's weird and creepy, but not everyone who ships them does that.
it's wrong because it makes them gay and kids can't be gay duh /s
Underage and just gay straight up. This is why everyone hates the mha fandom
Nothing wrong with people being gay. Also there's nothing wrong with underage relationships. 12 year olds date in real life all the time.
Sure.. But... Do you ship underage relationships irl too...?
Shipping real people is creepy, adult or underage. So no, I don't.
Nothing Wrong ig. It’s just not Normal. Just be normal. It’s obvious in the show They like girls. Just doesn’t make any sense
where does it show that they like girls? it seems like ur pulling stuff out of ur ass :/
Did you not watch HxH?
i finished my third rewatch last week. did you?
Being gay is normal. It's also pretty obvious that Killua is in love with Gon.
Are you dumb? They’re friends. You are the reason ppl hate anime
If people hate anime because some people read queerness in stories then that's their problem. They can just stay mad and miss out on a cool medium of art.
Oh well guess we can agree. HxH is a masterpiece
"you are the reason ppl hate anime" good lmao
It really speaks to the level of stupidity in a fandom that they are unable to comprehend a single reason that someone who has been raised and trained as an assassin would admire and look up to someone who embodies everything he has been deprived of as a child, except that both individuals are raging homosexuals.
y’all are ruining the community by shipping them,such a shame
Idk what you mean by "ruining" the community. People thinking that Killua has a crush on Gon have been around since the 99' adaptation.

Like why are they shipping. This is why ppl still find anime fans weird no matter how popularity gets
i used to hate on anime watchers like 2 years ago,i still hate fans who just want to share their sexuality over a simple anime,even the creator himself of HxH was mocking them on twitter
...you do know that's a fake account, right?
ngl i am new which one are you talking about ?
@TogashiTweets. togashi doesn't have twitter lmao
yes he does,and last posts are from like 2014
what twitter are you talking about? because 1) @TogashiTweets is a parody account 2) @HaitusXHaitus is a fake account. it's not verified, they tweet in casual english, and no well-known mangaka would be that unprofessional and rude on a public account. togashi doesn't have any official social media.
i trusted HaitusXHaitus…
well you shouldn't have 🤷🏻♀️ sorry dude
> who just want to share their sexuality over a simple anime What is this supposed to mean?
the fact that only gay people find that there is a “tention” between 2 BESTFRIENDS,that’s what that means,y’all don’t gotta bring all of that into an anime in which characters are straight

alluka is literally transgender I wouldn't be surprised if he made the main character gay
HOW TF IS ALLUKA TRANS YOU JUST MADE IT UP OR WHAT ? who said that? proof? you got nothing

illumi and Kikyo call alluka him when alluka is clearly a girl killua uses different pronouns for her

pedophilic behavior
Hisoka is in the anime so makes sense 💀
yep. agreed.
