Hunter x Hunter

TV Show • 2011 • Animation  

Report
Twelve-year-old Gon Freecss one day discovers that the father he had always been told was dead was alive and well. His Father, Ging, is a Hunter—a member of society's elite with a license to go anywhere or do almost anything. Gon, determined to follow in his father's footsteps, decides to take the Hunter Examination and eventually find his father to prove himself as a Hunter in his own right. But on the way, he learns that there is more to becoming a Hunter than previously thought, and the challenges that he must face are considered the toughest in the world.

The Zoldyck Family arc (ep. 22 onwards) focuses heavily on Killua's relationships with his family, including referring to his childhood when they put him through acts of torture, inlcuding electricution as part of training which leads to him having a ridiculous pain tolerance.

Whilst not a parent, Killua's 10+ acts manipulative and abusive for the entire series.

Killua's younger sibling, Alluka, is notably abused by being behumanised in the eyes of some family members.

There is a graphic scene of a woman being shot to death and eaten for fun in the Chimera Ant Arc. It's far worse than the manga depiction due to her body twitching.

If you interpretate the Zoldycks torturing Killua means they do the same to all their kids, that means Illumi and Milluki would fall into this.

Gaslighting, another way of saying emotional manipulation, happened most realistically with Killua’s abusive family dynamics shown later on. Clearly many kinds of supernatural villains do this in all kinds of fantastical situations, but for many, this bit might come too close to home.

Killua comes from a family of assassins who abuse him, which he mentions nonchalantly most times, as if it is a usual occurrence. During the Zoldyck Family arc following the Hunter Exam arc, this is explicitly seen. Killua’s sister Alluka is also mistreated by their family.

Yes, including a scene where a child torturing another child who is restrained by chains as a punishment.
Another character also uses chains to capture and restrain others.
Defeated characters are often restrained, mostly by restraints but sometimes directly by humans.
In one case a character is tortured offscreen whilst tied to a chair.

Some scenes in hxh could definitely be triggering for SA survivors, especially childhood SA survivors. None of the child characters are explicitly sexualized to my knowledge, but a lot of the situations they are put in are not mindful of the fact that they are children. They are often in violent situations, some get tortured by villains who claim to be "excited" by it, and often have to interact with adults who secretly wish them harm. There are also certain adults who the audience is expected to trust, despite the fact that they endanger some child characters or encourage them to participate in violence. I don't mean to sound like an overly concerned pta mom, or anything, but watch out for that stuff, keep yourself safe.

Many examples throughout the series. A non exhaustive list include events in episode 46, episode 50, multiple intances in episode 71 with resulting injuries which last until episode 74, episode 74, episode 93, episode 101, episode 140.

There are number of arm injuries including removal, and a whole arm injury persists from episode 131 until episode 145, though I belive does not feature in episodes 132 through to 135.

i dont think there is any medical amputation, but many characters lost limbs throughout the series .
gon loses his arm twice, but it gets reattached each time .
in a fight, hisoka loses both his arms, they are later reattached .
in the third season, two minor characters are beheaded .
kaito loses his arm and later his disembodied head is shown being held in neferpitous lap .
king meruem cuts of his own arm .
netero loses an arm and a leg .
neferpitou loses their arm and then their head shortly after during their fight with gon . this is also where gon loses an arm .
there is also a character called neon and she enjoys collecting body parts ! sometimes the body parts are shown, but its nothing terribly graphic . she is in the third season .

During the Hunter Exam arc, specifically Gon’s fight with Hanzo, Hanzo breaks Gon’s arm. The actual act is not seen, but everything leading up to it is and you can hear a crack followed by Gon’s scream of pain. Bones are implied to have been broken due to the amount of damage they sustain throughout the show.

(This whole explanation may contain spoilers even though I did my best to avoid them haha.)There are plenty of scenes with blood and injuries. The main protagonist is stubborn and often gets himself hurt. There is a scene where he lost about half of his arm, but he recovers quickly and keeps both arms. There is a whole arc where children are fighting adults, and while the children are usually more powerful than these adults, as they progress further it becomes more difficult for them and the main protagonist gets beat up a couple times. Also, in another arc there is quite a lot of death, both human and not. A dangerous man-eating hybrid species develops and a lot of people die due to this. In one scene a character gets their arm cut off by one of these creatures, and although it is not shown on screen, their head gets cut off and they die. (Since this is a pretty relative scene in the show, in this next part I’ll be as careful as possible when referring to characters to avoid spoilers haha.) One character becomes extremely angry over their friend’s death and uses their nen ability to grow and become as powerful as possible. They kill one of the creatures (rather brutally, though the creature doesn't have human blood) and ends up nearly dying themself. So overall, yes this show has gore.

There are repeated cases of self harm by many characters, usually to further a goal and not necessarily as an act of self-hatred. 3 of the 4 main characters use self harm as a means to an end. Gon in particular regularly puts himself in unnecessary danger, and then finally, in one of the later episodes of the series, commits an extreme act of intentional self harm that ends rather badly for him.

No characters have diagnosed mental illness. Most characters are violent, this is a fighting anime. Many of the most violent antagonistic characters appear to be twisted but there is no attempt to medicalise this.

One character seeks out genodical antagonists due to the events that cause their apparent PTSD.

No, someone does have a seperate entity living within them for supernatural reasons, but this is always clearly presented as a different person rather than DID.

In episode 124, a character makes a suicide attempt in order to continue with their plan and cover up, but is cured by those on the opposite side.

A character doesn't states displeasure that a choice they made makes them temporally appear pregnant.

A different character very substantially alters their apperarence to change most aspects of their appearence to be more like how they want to look, and is very keen to avoid being seen in their unaltered state.

At times, when the camera wants to show a lot of movements during fights. Though usually everything is shown in dramatic slow motion in the anime when complicated movements happen.

The main protagonist is shown as a baby in one scene. Later in the show there is a giant ant queen who is pregnant, but when she gives birth it doesn’t really look like a baby at all.

I do not understand the other comment. The presence of stereotypical gay characteristics does not mean the show in insulting it. Also just because a character is flamboyant, does not mean he is gay. Gays can be very masculine, femininine or somewhere in between. That is also true for straight types also. Being feminine does not automatically make someone not straight, and it is rude to call them gay as an insult, because they aren’t and being gay isn’t a bad thing.

No, but there is an instance of a characters' english-written alias matching part of the the N-slur in English. In one instance honourifics/grammar made it sound like the N-slur to me.

Judas is mentioned and there are other minimal religious references, but no slander against any religions. Killua has a star of david on his yo-yo, but that is the only reference to Judaism we see. (It also looks like the nen type chart so it might not even be a star of david)

a scene with a main character during the trick tower portions does include a couple things like this. he is enforced to touch a women to find out if shes “actually a girl” as a test, and also this same character suggests (in his head) putting kurapika in this position as well to counteract the same test, insinuating that he looks feminine.

Alluka- heavily implied to a transgender girl- is misgendered frequently by one of her brothers, Illumi. Killua is the only person in her family to respect her identity.

I cannot remember any instance of jokes made by characters about fat people. You may consider the anime to be making fun of fat characters for being so.

One fat character is presented in a comedic manner as being particularly gluttonous. Another is presented as lazy, though talented in a way counter his family's norms.

Upsetting death of a black man in the third season. He doesn't die first but... the show builds up how he's this dog dad with a girlfriend and a life ahead of him... it's rough man... Could be triggering for some poc who have experienced police brutality due to the fact he's pulled over while driving.

There are allusions to Buddism, the a Star of David, and some christian imagery. A character worships martial arts itself.

There is one instance of some conversation refering to Judas, where the story is treated as one of mythology rather than one of religion, and the figure is briefly debated.

Organised religion seems to be absent, and whilst discussions can get philosphical they do not seem religous.

There are two mass gang killings via a small number of gunmen, one of which is 100+ people.

Other than this when gun violence is attempted it is largely ineffective and typically not presented as a threat.
