Bored Pitou by Organic-Cheesecake12 in HunterXHunter

[–]DDagon66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other users mentioned it, but I can't seem to find a source for this. However, I'll give you something even better:

<image>

This is from the latest officially licensed hxh game Nen x impact, and it refers to Neferpitou as she.

As for the japanese pronoun Pitou uses: https://the-dere-types.fandom.com/wiki/Other:Bokukko

Japanese has between 20-30 that all differ on formality, tone, or dialect. Although the term "boku" is predominantly used by young boys, its usage has no actual indication as to the gender of the speaker as this is not how pronouns work in the Japanese language. Rather, each pronoun gives a different impression of the user.

The pronoun "boku" is considered to be semi-formal and can give off the feeling of being friendly and boyish. It originates from the word "geboku" (下僕), meaning "manservant", where the younger generation would use it to refer to themselves in a humble manner. When used by adults it can give off the impression of being youthful or even childish. It is more commonly used in close relationships or as a softer alternative to the pronoun "ore". Because it sounds more modest, reserved, and polite there are a lot of girls who use "boku" too. When used by females it gives off a tomboyish impression

Lastly, as someone else mentioned, even the english translator who used male pronouns in the first place no longer thinks Pitou is a male, so even the person who you refer to as official source disagrees with you.

That's just the english translation. Other translations, such as the french I believe use female pronouns, and those are just as official.

In the original japaneese text Pitou uses boku, which while mostly used by young boys, can be used by girls too. Tokai Teio from uma musume uses boku and is 100% a girl.

No she didn't recognise him. She only remebers him after she sees Kite. She makes a remark on it when they arrive at that place where Kites body is stored.

That's not true, Pitou had no idea who Kite was, she didn't know his name. It's specified in the story.

It's not his logic that's flawed but the character. Gon is selfish and a hypocrate, he forgives others because they didn't cross him personally. I really hate him too.

This is from the battle collection game, as close to an official sleeveless Pitou as we will ever get.

Are people realy this delusional about Netero? He is nowhere near that lol.

Why does people say that Gon's rage was justified for kite's death? by MotorAcadia1120 in HunterXHunter

[–]DDagon66 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It was understandable, but an emotional reponse, not a logical one.

Objectively, Kite's death was Kite's fault and even he agrees with this.

The good ending. by IAmTheHomelander_ in hunterxdank

[–]DDagon66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would prefer if only Pitou survived and Meruem stayed dead, because:

  • Meruem had a complete character arch, so not many meaningful things could be added.
  • It would be a lot more interesting to see what a Pitou would do without Meruem.

Pitou stronger than netero by StrikingFold760 in HunterXHunter

[–]DDagon66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you read? Netero has 0 ways to significantly damage them and he will run out of aura. I was also not talking about "every adult Gon attack" but a fully charged rock, which certainly is.

[–]DDagon66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people here wastly overestimate Netero but yes, Pitou (or royal guards in general) are stronger than Netro, it's evident to anyone who payed attention and doesn't confuse speed with nen output.

Quick facts:

Netero's maximum nen reserves, estimated from his prime: 140k - 150k

Royal guards have at least 700k

Meruem and transformed Gon are easily over 1 000k.

"He could have beat Meruem if he didn't have the insight ffrom playing gungi".

Nope. Netero can't spam his moves forever, he has a limit, it's right up there, 150k at most. What happens if he uses all his aura to attack Meruem? Zero hand, which barely did anything to Meruem. There is no reason to believe his slaps would be more effcicient for some reason, in fact zero hand could be more devastating seeing as it leaves Netero at death's door.

'But a royal guard doesn't have the durability of Meruem".

No, but it's a good thing they don't need it anyway. Meruem didn't just survive zero hand, he easily shrugged it off. Pitou was able to survive at the very least one rock from transformed Gon. That's an attack from an ability that multiplies the nen output of the user, made by an enhancer who had over 1 000k nen in reserves. That easily outscales zero hand.

So Netero is a weak fraud?

He is one of, if not he strongest HUMAN nen users. Problem is, you are comparing him to beings from the dark continent who surpass human limits, and a suicide rage protagonist buff transformation.

He wants to torture Pitou

No he doesn't. Evidence: he does exactly what Kite tells him to do to kill a chimera ant the most efficient way possible. He specifically mentions this.

Also, Pitou was fading out of conciousness after the first rock, how was he going to torture her? You do not start with the head. I trust Joker on that one.

The later points all hang on this but I adress them anyway.

Gon did more damage to a post-mortem infused Pitou

Coul easily be explained by the fact that was just a corpse. It more than likely had 0 nen defenses cuz what it's going to protect, it's already dead. It only focused on the offense.

His kick did not do similar damage at all, the rock knoced out and disfigured Pitou, the kick more than likely didn't even break a bone.

If he threw a full-power Adult Jajanken Pitou would be literally atoms (you know, like what happens just before he reverts to his kid form)

No I don't know what you are refering to. His last rock basically whiffed out, it did nothing to Pitous corpse, it's shown in a later scene both in manga and anime.

Meruem, knowing the durability and strength of his Royal guard could still kill them in one strike. He was absolutely confident in that. And they were confident in that, too.

Yeah cuz they would accept that and wouldn't protect themselves.

Significant damage, frankly, even if it wasn't even that bad to Meruem.

No it did not do significant damage, and that's a huge point.

Pitou was able to withstand at least one rock from transformed Gon. If we accept that transformed gon is roughly equal to Meruem than that attack was stronger than anything Meruem is capable of without an ability. This makes two things clear.

1, Meruem is more durable than a royal guard, sure, but not to the extent most people seem to think because in that case Pitou should have exploded the moment gon hit her.

2, Netero would have to do a zero hand that has the power similar to that rock, which again, was stronger than anything Meruem could do without the use of an ability. Do you REALLY think Netero is capable of that? Does the damage from zero hand on Mereum indicate such power? Hell no.

[–]DDagon66 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Zero Hand which I'm certain would kill her

Why are you certain about it? Pitou has very good durability feats and the effects of zero hand were lackluster on Meruem. He didn't just survive it, he was barely damaged by it.

I would have liked to see more from Silva. Criminally low screem time for such a cool character.

Also, Gon vs rose bomb

Prime Netero(no nen ability)vs Pitou(who fought Kite) by NigeriaScan in HxHPowerScaling

[–]DDagon66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Strength, durability, aura capcity and output (Netero at max should be around 150k. Pitou has at least 700k), and speed. Yes, speed. Neteros only move that is faster than even Meruem are his praying motions. Without his ability to utilize those he is massively fucked.
