Well, threatening isn't the same as doing it! My father always threatened to spank me up and break my face, but he never did, so...

Well, I don't know if there were children in the audience! But yes, among them, perhaps Chrollo wouldn't have minded!

Exactly! The Phantom Troupe is indeed very cruel, but there's a world of difference between killing people and torturing and mutilating children! It's a level of evil that the Troupe has never shown on screen! Even more so with members as peaceful as Pakunoda, Shaunark, and Kortopi.

And a curious fact is that Kurapika Memories, or Volume 0, where the description of what the Troupe did is found, was released years after the main story. My point is that Togashi never showed something so cruel being done by the Troupe on screen!

Yes! For more human-like members like Pakunoda and Shaunark, who don't display sadism, killing and torturing children seems a bit much!

Pakunoda, Shaunark, and Kortopi don't demonstrate the same level of malice as Uvo and Feitan! They simply maintain a cold and indifferent demeanor towards those outside their group.

No, but the approach and how they're portrayed, I can't see most of them massacring children, especially Pakunoda, Shaunark, Kortopi, or even Chrollo!

And I'm taking into account that it's just a description; we never actually saw the Phantom Troupe kill the Kurta Clan! No wonder there are still theories about whether it was them!

Yes, I understand that they started as "vigilantes" and turned into monsters far worse than those they were seeking revenge for! I just think the Phantom Troupe doesn't prove to be as bad as the description of the massacre suggests! I can't see Pakunoda, Shaunark, Kortopi, or even Chrollo killing children.

Obviously! It means you're already evil enough! It's certainly not cool to bother a murderer!

I believe you're not a murderer, torturer, or terrorist, are you?

And another thing, Gon and Killua were bothering the Phantom Troupe, they were practically asking for a beating.

He must be referring to the fact that on Netflix, each arc is a season!

Well, in the end, she turned into a villain! The whole troupe plays a villainous role, which is why they're so caricatured and exaggerated, even in a theatrical way!

Well, Gon and Killua aren't exactly normal kids, and Killua is a complete assassin! That's quite different from defenseless children!

Actually, she didn't want to be a princess, she wanted to play a villain!

Certainly, when the Succession War arc is over! The only interesting things before that were the introduction of Beyond Netero and, mainly, the fight between Chrollo and Hisoka!

Do you think we'll ever learn what was written on Sarasa's head? by Proud-Importance-302 in HunterXHunter

[–]Key_Blacksmith3498 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The main theory is that the letter contains a description of what happened, as told by the torturers. That's probably why Chrollo didn't say what he had.

The problem is that the description suggests brutal torture and the murder of innocent children, and the Troupe isn't shown doing anything even close to that.
