Hxh gay
I tend to view a lot of people say that Togashi will go things uncertain and ambiguous in between Killua and Gon, and while it’s a possibility, I honestly don’t reflect it’s the most likely thing to happen, and if it did, ambiguous wouldn’t be the correct term to call it.
People often say that Togashi likes to play with ambiguity when it comes to queer matters. Yes, Togashi likes to play with gender. We obtain to see that through Kite, Pitou and Kalluto in HxH (although its arguable because Kite is definitely not cis). But when Togashi decides that a character is queer, or that there is a relationship going on between two characters, he doesn’t go it ambiguous.
Togashi has created gender non-conforming characters in 3 of his main works : Yu Yu Hakusho, Level E and Sportsman x Hunter. And everytime he created those characters, he made damn sure that everyone knew that these characters were queer. No room for any sort of ambiguity.
The first examples I have are from Yu Yu Hakusho, with a character named Miyuki, and the other is from Level E, with a character named Kyoko Mikihisa.
For these two characters, Togashi made it so that they emphasized themselves tha

wait you said smth abt the difference in the 1999 anime and the manga, with you not pickin up the lgbtq+ vibes of the hunter exam in the manga. i drink dumb juice on the daily so could you pretty please grant examples of the differences 🥺
hello !! “i drink dumb juice on the daily” might be my favorite sentence now HAHAHAH
ok so ! 1999 version is extremely gay. idk if youve seen it or not but its. very gay. like the opening is male lover, the ending is gay (check out the lyrics too), they added same-sex attracted subtext in the midst of canon material, they made sure that it was very heavily gay coded. love look at killugon’s meeting that’s straight out of a shoujo, or this scene that’s just. summit gay. oh, also this. like, the anime just gives off a very gay vibe.(i dont have any other particular examples since i havent seen 1999 but @reeeyachi if u need to add more u are very welcome to contribute to this send pls <3<3)
but enjoy. yeah.
ANYWAYS ! it’s gay. like the anime went nuts conveying that. but like i said in the share i think you’re refering, when the anime went in production, there was no gay undertones. it was just 4 bros chilling taking a death test to bec
Why would it matter? You just said it doesn't matter yourself.MasenkoHA wrote: Fri Aug 12, 2022 4:24 pmOf course it doesn't matter. But we do have explicitly heterosexual characters and characters in heterosexual relationships. Aggressively heterosexual in the case of Roshi and Oolong. So what if we did have a same-sex attracted character or couple? Why would it matter?
And as I said in the topic you linked to. Those heterosexual relationships have served petty other purpose than providing a means for an offspring character to be introduced.
Theres virtually nothing to Goku and Chi Chi's relationship. All that's allowed for is Gohan and Goten to be born. Vegeta and Bulma didn't even share that many scenes together in the original manga.
If it wasn't for new child characters to introduce there would have been no require for characters to be heterosexual either. Roshi and Oolong were just creeps with the same weary joke that got tedious quick.
Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Ginyu Drive, Frieza, Dabura, Buu, Beerus, U6 Team, Zamasu, 70 characters in the Foremost, Broly, Moro, Saganbo and co, Granolah, Heeters etc..A majority of the fighters are from land so you're already wrong.

Hunter X Hunter: How One Villain Changes the Series' LGBTQ+ Approach
Shaiapouf, one of the Royal Guards in Yoshihiro Togashi's Hunter x Hunter, is a fascinatingly complex villain, particularly regarding his queer-coded identity. His loyalty and devotion to Meruem, the Chimera Ant King, are unwavering, bordering on obsession. This dedication goes beyond duty, venturing into deeply emotional and arguably romantic land. Shaiapouf’s feelings are sensual rather than overtly sexual, portraying an intense, almost divine adoration that mirrors the complexities of unrequited queer love often depicted in media.
Hunter x Hunter is populated by multifaceted characters that oppose the audience’s expectations of specific anime archetypes and call into question the societal factors that shape stereotypes. From Hunters to organ thieves and organized criminals, everyone has a purpose and a point of view. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the Chimera Ant arc, which adds a bevy of new characters to an already bloated cast. Togashi continually impresses with his ability to build these players’ motivations feel genuine and grounded, despite how flamboyantly they express themselv
