And just the idea of Killua leaving Gon behind to die – a tragic but scarily plausible scenario – would break my heart entirely. Maybe temporarily, in order for them to gain perspective on their friendships, but not forever. See, I don’t want to see these two boys parting ways. He is a twisted child and there is no excusing that, but does that really deny him the right to friendship? Killua is certainly a better person now than he ever was before, choosing not to kill whenever he can help it. While Gon is good at making friends wherever he goes, Killua only really has Gon, and it’s only after meeting him that he’s been able to open up to others. That’s what breaks my heart: Killua’s own fear and self-disgust, even as his best friend lights up his existence. In fact, Biscuit tells him the cutting truth: Because of his assassin upbringing, Killua will one day leave Gon behind to die.

He believes that he and Killua will always be together, and no matter how much Killua wants this to be true, he does not think it will turn out that way. The truth is that Gon is much cleverer and wiser than how others generally perceive him, so I’m not sure to what extent he realises how much Killua puts him on a pedestal, but his ideals are just so pervasive that one can’t help wanting to believe in him anyway. Killua perceives Gon as his saviour and sees it has his duty to protect his innocence because, in his own mind, he has already gone too far. Always have.īut the longer their friendship goes on, the more it takes on degrees of shadow. As friends, they just click from the moment they met. It is simultaneously sweet, boyish and heartbreaking.

The relationship we see in the anime between Gon and Killua is one of co-dependence. What it does prove is that I’ve thought about their relationship from more than just one angle. It doesn’t mean I misinterpret the themes and relationships entirely, but rather I think of it as just a possibility I entertain. The canon and the headcanon are two separate things, after all. But yaoi fans will probably understand exactly what I’m talking about. To non-yaoi fans, what I have to say might sound like I’m corrupting the nature of their friendship by interpreting it as “ambiguously gay”. It’s one of the most powerful friendships I’ve ever seen in anime – and I’ll freely admit it: they’ve even moved me to tears. Their friendship is the heart of the anime, and however you interpret their relationship, I would say it’s definitely more important than all the other plot elements put together, except for Gon’s quest to find his father. It’s not quite the same thing as shipping exactly, but I do find Gon and Killua interesting to watch, so I guess the point is moot. I’m not kidding you. Sometimes, for whatever reason, I do interpret two characters as ambiguously gay. Honestly, I watch this show for the two little boys in it. Unfortunately, these same people tell me that they like the show because it is a “subversive” and “intelligent” shonen and frequently cite the Yorkshin arc as the best arc. Many people have told that they like Hunter x Hunter. This is great to hear because HxH is awesome. Have I ever mentioned how I’m a fujoshi on the inside?
