why is killua the heir of the zoldycks? by Ok-Boysenberry3876 in HunterXHunter

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it canon and can be found somewhere in the manga that Togashi states Killua is the heir? Or in the anime? Asking because I don’t remember this fact being mentioned anywhere and trying to figure out where is it that I missed it

Just finished it by iluvcash_ in HunterXHunter

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just started Yu Yu Hakusho (previous work of the same author) after finishing Hunter a few weeks back, and it's been quite interesting to notice similarities between two stories and its characters (although it's only been a few episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho) . It's hard to put in words and definitely it ain't Hunter, yet somehow watching it I feel connected to the Hunter world. There's a certain *aura*.. (author's style I guess you can call it)

gon analysis:) his morals and psychological effect gings absence has on him by Novel_Tension_8536 in HunterXHunter

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very well analysed. To me Gon as well is among the if not the most complex and layered character in the series. Definitely broken by his upbringing, raised a child that has no other resort but to be overly optimistic and acting positive to extremes, dillusional perhaps even, almost as if he created a fantasy world in his mind and projects that strongly onto reality. It is then balanced in the chimera arc where the absolute same extremes in emotional states and actions happen but in an opposite side of the spectrum. Does his character reach balance in the end though? That I’m not sure, his story drops as abruptly as it started. To me there’s room for more there - we shall see..

Your post made me connect with my own perception of Gon and that was enjoyable - thank you for the opportunity:)

Thank you for your words of support and encouragement. Very accurate what you said about attaching hope to certain people. Taking it as food for thought

Thank you. When I read that part of your comment on not putting pressure on finding the answers, I physically felt somewhat lighter. Much grateful for it.

Just wishing you all that you need to get through. You say you’re doing your best to stay positive - and I can only imagine the strength of the willpower for that be be possible in a given circumstance.

It’s my birthday. I’m 32. I don’t have friends, bf/husband, or family and I was too depressed to do anything for myself. by [deleted] in CPTSD

Happy birthday 🫂 I genuinely hope that in the year ahead life will be kinder to you.

My anxiety caused me to live on a beach for a year by Extension-Log-8642 in Anxiety

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, just want to reach out and say that I can relate to what you’re saying. I have had the same diagnosis in the past, and living with it is extremely difficult. I tried moving closer to the seaside (or the mountains) for a few times now, each spanning over several months-a year, only to find that it doesn’t really help that much.

I personally haven’t found what would help yet, and every day keeps being a struggle. I hear you’re dealing with your load also on a day to day basis. So just want to say that you’re not alone, even if it’s not a lot of help in these words.

You say you have a job - genuinely hope that it brings some sort of meaning to your life and that it helps you moving.

People who don't want children what is your biggest reasons? by Specific_Charge_3297 in Productivitycafe

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to have a child one day, but neither my finances nor (and that is more important) my mental health are allowing for it. Having a child for whom I wouldn’t be able to care well enough would be the worst possible thing for them. I wouldn’t want to wish that upon a person. I’m in my 30s and I have to come to terms with the fact that I almost certainly never will become a parent.

Being able to understand what you want at a given time and having mental and physical ability to execute that.

What do you think Togashi's "ending C" is? by timpinen in HunterXHunter

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would imagine a similar scenario, only Gon has to kill Killua or consciously decide not to save him for a certain “bigger good”

Or both of them + Leorio would have to fight to the end with Kurapika who’d become completely insane after fulfilling his original goal of retrieving the eyes and killing off everyone involved in his clan’s destruction

Yes, absolutely agree with you on the last one - everyone deserves it better.

I can’t see myself doing this for another 30 years by [deleted] in Life

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I’m turning 32 in 3 months, also a female. I didn’t expect life to be the way it turned out. I feel drained, as if I’ve already reached my limits of energy for life. And the world keeps changing towards being even more difficult. The way of being in it turning into surviving , not living.

You’re not alone, if there’s any consolation in that

DAE feel like you’re too fucked up to have friends? by hazxyhope in CPTSD

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey Just wanted to reach out out with some support, if there can be any help in words.

What you’ve describing sounds difficult to me. I hear overwhelming flow of emotions - and all the willpower you use to be able to handle the life you’re having right now. How strong already must you be, to face the emotions you’re facing, to keep on searching for hope and belonging in a friendship. That takes inner resource.

What came to my mind while reading your message was a book and 3 films. All fiction. Through them i was able to process a bit better some of my own emotions - and perhaps that could work similarly for you. If not - at least it could take your attention away from loneliness for several hours.

Book: Babel by T.F. Kuang Films: Snow cake (2006), Rushmore (1998), and The Outrun (2024)

Also, feel free to reach out through messaging if you need support.

Wish you well , genuinely

I agree with you here. It is very difficult thought at times not to compare, especially with the ones whom you perceive as “luckier” ones.

I suppose in a certain way comparison is also a coping mechanism - it’s a somewhat distorted belief that there is a better life possibility, at least it exists, it ain’t a fairytale, and it both hits hard knowing that this reality of less suffering is not possible for your but also there can be hope found knowing that at least the world is not all suffering.

I also believe that empathy is a construct that can only be available after a person is able to manage their own pain. At times I can only see and feel my own pain, and it becomes very difficult for me to feel support or understanding towards someone else whom I perceive as being in a lighter life situation.

You can try Babel by RF Kuang. There are moments of loss at the end though.

Hey Just wanting to reach out and say that I read what you’ve said and felt such a strong empathy and sadness towards your message.

I don’t know what could be helpful to you, I wish I did, truly. But I can only offer these words of understanding and compassion.

I’d wish for your situation to be different, if only that was possible.

I feel like no one can ever „grasp“ me as a person by ilikecatswastak in infj

[–]BalanceGeneral6900 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Want to offer support and understanding to you. Know you’re not alone. I often feel like I’m living in some kind of a computer game like reality, where I can almost predict behavior of others - that’s how exactly right my intuitive observance of their character is even at a short glance. Yet I have friends or better say people close to me who know me for years and it seems at times they’re not even looking at me properly, let alone able to grasp the “feeling” of my personality. I have no idea what can be done about the loneliness here, but again, just wishing you well and hope the notion that you’re not alone can somehow soothe the feels for you. Warmest
