| 10 | !!Tonpa |
| 11 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Toshiharu Sakurai (2011 Series), Kohei Kowada (1999 Series) (Japanese), Michael Sorich (2011 Series) (English) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_tonpa.png]] |
| 14 | |
| 15 | A veteran examinee known as the "Rookie Crusher", he participates in the exam just to crush newbies' ambitions. He's examinee #16 in the 287th Hunter Exam. |
| 16 | ---- |
| 17 | * AchievementsInIgnorance: During the Trick Tower section, he's pitted against Bendot in a fight to the death. He looks to display that he has some fighting skills...and quickly gives up. He gloats to the heroes about purposefully trying to stymie them to make them fail until Killua points out if he hadn't given up as fast as he had, his opponent would've crushed his larynx and tortured him for ''70 hours'' to prevent all of them from passing, thus he inadvertently saved himself and pretty much ''helped'' the heroes anyway. To say this took the wind out of his gloating is an understatement. |
| 18 | * AdaptationalIntelligence: Tonpa in the 1999 anime is notably more competent, patient, and better at keeping his facade up than in the manga and 2011 anime. He forgoes trying to give laxative-spiked drinks to any of the other hunters and instead plays a longer game of building his kindly persona up and befriending Leorio and the others so that their guard is completely down at the opportune moment where he can betray and sabotage them. |
| 19 | * AdaptationalVillainy: While he's still an utter JerkAss in the manga and 2011 anime, in the 1999 anime he takes it a step further and [[KickTheDog does something truly reprehensible in his first appearance]]; instead of trying to give Gon and friends spiked drinks, he lures Leorio to a path covered in sap that makes the victim hallucinate and see their worst nightmares. Nicolas has a [[SanitySlippage nervous breakdown]], Kurapika sees the Phantom Troupe murder his clan, and Leorio sees the skeleton of his deceased friend trying to ''goad him into suicide''. |
| 20 | * BaitTheDog: Present in all mediums. He comes across as a helpful senior in the exam, attempting to help Gon and the others out, but he's actually an unpleasant person who likes to trample over the hopes of others out of sadism, tricking them with false assistance before deliberately hindering them to watch them fail. |
| 21 | ** The 1999 version is somehow worse, as he seemingly aids an exhausted Leorio to a safer passage- that is actually filled with hallucinogenic sap that [[MindRape psychologically tortures him with memories of his dead friend]]. |
| 22 | * BrilliantButLazy: Despite having more interest in screwing over rookies rather than actually passing himself, Tonpa actually makes it quite far into the exam. This implies that [[DickDastardlyStopsToCheat he could pass if he actually cared.]] |
| 23 | * CoverInnocentEyesAndEars: In the 1999 version, he covers the eyes of Gon while Leorio is checking if Leroute is actually a woman or not. |
| 24 | * DirtyCoward: When the fight is fair, you can expect Tonpa to get out of dodge if he has no dirty tricks left to pull. |
| 25 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: When Killua comes back to him for another of his laxative spiked juice, he's actually worried that it could kill him via dehydration since the drugs are supposed to work for three whole days. He may be a prick, but he just wants to cause rookies to fail, not murder them. |
| 26 | * EveryYearTheyFizzleOut: He doesn't really care about passing the exam, he failed 36 times. He prefers to crush the rookies. |
| 27 | * FalseFriend: He pretends to be friendly to rookies, but highly enjoys sabotaging them and making them fail. |
| 28 | * FatBastard: A short, fat guy who tries to fail the other contestants out of his sadism. |
| 29 | * HateSink: With him crushing participants of the Hunter exams for no other reason than to see them fail and does it with absolutely sadistic glee, it is very clear the audience is not supposed to like him. |
| 30 | * InSeriesNickname: The Rookie Crusher. |
| 31 | * {{Jerkass}}: He makes no bones that he's a sadistic dickhead because he gets off on it, and actively tries to be TheLoad when he's forced to succeed, tormenting people by doing whatever he can to screw them over, being totally unhelpful unless forced to cooperate, and giving them hell all the way down to [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking waving his smelly, holey socks in their face.]] |
| 32 | * LaserGuidedKarma: In the 2011 anime, he's left bound and gagged during the island portion. By the looks of it, he was disqualified for not gathering 6 points in time. |
| 33 | * TheLoad: He's a deliberate load to Gon and his friends, slowing them down to try and make them fail the Third Phase. |
| 34 | * OhCrap: |
| 35 | ** Takes on the main team's first opponent, Bendot, in the third phase of the exams [[TheLoad just to give up and put them at a disadvantage]] [[SmugSnake and then rubs it in their faces.]] Then Killua points out that had he been any slower in his surrender, his opponent would've easily broken his larynx to prevent said surrender and [[ColdBloodedTorture tortured him]] over ''seventy hours'' to waste their time and make them fail. Leorio doesn't hesitate to point out Tonpa's pale expression while he tries to save face. |
| 36 | ** He gets another one the following year's exam when he's up to his old tricks. But spots Killua and quickly does an about face before he's noticed. And then of course there's the exam first test which was for all the applicants to beat each other up and steal their badges. Needless to say, he never gets far in his rookie crushing that year. |
| 37 | * PetTheDog: In episode 20 of the 1999 anime, Tonpa is the one who noticed that Gon hadn't returned from rescuing Leorio from the ocean, Kurapika ordered all power on the boat be sent to the cannons, so all lights were turned off, Tonpa knows that Gon wouldn't be able to find the boat once he reached the surface; so he climbed a pillar and shined a light out for Gon so he'd be able to make it back to the boat. |
| 38 | * PottyEmergency: Tries to weaponize this several times by [[SchmuckBait giving unsuspecting rookies food and drink spiked to the brim with a devastating cocktail of laxatives that will surely take the ordinary newcomer out of the running.]] Unfortunately for him, he gives a soda to Killua, who is used to ingesting all manner of toxic substances and [[AcquiredPoisonImmunity grew immune to the lion's share of them all.]] And when he tries to pull this stunt later again, he ends up being the one suffering these consequences when he eats a bad batch of wild mushrooms out of desperate hunger. |
| 39 | * TheRival: To Leorio during the exam. |
| 40 | * SanitySlippage: He became like that because of all the horrors he saw during the Hunter exams. |

| 47 | |
| 48 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_ponzu.png]] |
| 49 | |
| 50 | Examinee #246 in the 287th Hunter Exam. Her hat holds many bees that can she can control to attack others, injecting a lethal poison. She later reappears as examine #233 in the 288th Hunter Exam, only to be quickly taken out by Killua like everybody else. In the Chimera Ant arc, she accompanies the Hunter Pokkle in infiltrating NGL where she finds her demise. |
| 51 | ---- |
| 52 | * AscendedExtra: She has a larger role in the video game Altar of Dragon Vein where she helps the main cast in their mission to stop Zegin. |
| 53 | * BeeBeeGun: Her hat is full of trained bees that will emerge and attack the nearest human if she screams. |
| 54 | * DroppedABridgeOnHim: She's suddenly shot to death by a Chimera Ant. |
| 55 | * DyingClue: She manages to at least send one of her bees off with information about the Chimera Ants before she's caught. This alerts the Hunter Association about them. |
| 56 | * ExactWords: Gon did end up holding up the part of the deal to carry her out from the cave after triggering the sleeping gas and give out the number badge from her target. He never said he was going to take ''hers'' and give it to Leorio, disqualifying her from reaching the finals. |
| 57 | * FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: Is shot in the face at point-blank range by a Chimera Ant, then devoured messily. Made even worse in the anime in spite of turning the first shot into a case of PrettyLittleHeadshots, where [[{{Sadist}} said Ant]] [[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/hunterxhunter/images/5/5c/Ponzu_death_2.gif/revision/latest?cb=20130519180641 continues to fire bullets into her skull well after she's dead.]] |
| 58 | * IronicDeath: The girl who wields killer insects on humans is killed by humanoid insects. |
| 59 | * LaserGuidedKarma: First a mild dosage. She didn't care about the fact her insects killed somebody, doesn't show any sense of charity to anyone, and just went about her business like it was nothing. Gon promptly steals her number badge when he gets the chance. Then it hits her in full force eventually. Sometime later, she's left without anyone to bail her out of a deadly confrontation, in which insects kill ''her.'' |
| 60 | * PrettyLittleHeadshots: In the 2011 anime, [[SubvertedTrope until her killer keeps shooting her in the face well after she's dead]]. Averted outright in the manga, where the vague glimpse we see of her head shows that being shot left her face a bloody mess. |
| 61 | %%* ShipTease: With Pokkle. [[ShipSinking And both sides of the ship are murderously torpedoed into the ocean blue in the same arc]]. |

| 70 | Examinee #76 in the 287th Hunter Exam and a martial artist. |
| 71 | ---- |
| 72 | * SenselessSacrifice: Despite knowing he could not beat Hisoka he still decided to fight him to disqualify him and protect the others. He failed miserably. |

| 81 | A prisoner in Trick Tower used to test the examinees in the 287th Hunter Exam. He was sentenced to 199 years in prison for murder and robbery. |
| 82 | ---- |
| 83 | * BaldHeadOfToughness: The bald head in combination with his scars add to his hardened, tough look. |
| 84 | * BaldOfEvil: He IS serving a sentence of 199 years for murder and robbery, after all. |
| 85 | * BarefootCaptives: Imposed into being barefoot as part of the prison uniform. |
| 86 | * ColdBloodedTorture: He was trained to torture people as slowly and methodically as possible, and had Tonpa not surrendered when he did, Bendot would have worked not to kill him, but keep him alive in the most painful and helpless way he could to run out the clock for his opponents. |
| 87 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: Thick, jagged scars etched above the brow of his forehead. |
| 88 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm: After seeing Killua kill Johness, he's quick to reject Killua's offer to keep going. |
| 89 | * PsychoForHire: A mercenary who used to go around doing dirty work for people at a fair price, until he started killing for the sake of killing and was caught. |
| 90 | * SerialKiller: Bendot killed a lot of people just because he could. |

| 98 | |
| 99 | One of the prisoners in Trick Tower used to test the participants of the 287th Hunter Exam. He was sentenced 149 years in prison for being a serial bomber. |
| 100 | ---- |
| 101 | * AdaptationalBadass: In the 1999 anime, he actually gets into a scuffle with Gon with both trying to keep their candles from burning out first. Even giving him some trouble. |
| 102 | * BarefootCaptives: Like the rest of the prisoners, no shoes allowed. |
| 103 | * DidntSeeThatComing: His challenge to Gon was to see who's candle would burn out longer. He tries to trick Gon into taking the shorter one by trying to MindScrew him and claiming the candle wasn't rigged. But it was since he had put gunpowder into it which caused the flame burn hotter, assuring that Gon would lose. However Gon gets around this by putting his candle on the ground, rushing him and blowing out Sedokan's wick before he knows what's happened. |
| 104 | * HidingBehindYourBangs: His brown hair covers his left eye, fitting for his scheming nature. |
| 105 | * MadBomber: Imprisoned for several counts of terrorism. |
| 106 | * TheTrickster: Using his knowledge of pyrotechnics, he tried to trick Gon into believing one candle would burn out faster than the other and turned it into a brainteaser. |

| 110 | !!Majtani |
| 111 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KazukiYao (2011 Series), Creator/HidenobuKiuchi (1999 Series) (Japanese), Bill Rogers (2011 Series) (English) |
| 112 | |
| 113 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_majitani.png]] |
| 114 | |
| 115 | A prisoner in Trick Tower used to test the 287th Hunter Exam's participants. He was sentenced to 108 years in prison for blackmail and fraud. |
| 116 | ---- |
| 117 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: He's bright blue in the 2011 anime for reasons never explained, other than implied botched plastic surgery/skin pigmentation change gone wrong. |
| 118 | * BarefootCaptives: Again, no shoes for the prisoners. |
| 119 | * BigBadWannabe: Inverted; Majtani does have some street cred as dangerous and is an infamous prisoner, but he's not a total monster like he claims to be. |
| 120 | * BodyHorror: His face is horribly disfigured, supposedly as a result of botched plastic surgery. His skin's also blue for some reason, maybe due to the surgery and a skin pigmentation change gone wrong. |
| 121 | * BoisterousWeakling: [[ZigZaggedTrope Sorta.]] He overlaps with DumbMuscle and BigBadWannabe in that he brags about all sorts of accomplishments and is strong and dangerous enough to be imprisoned for a serious number of criminal offenses, but the ''really'' bad stuff he claims he did is a bunch of nonsense. |
| 122 | * CombatPragmatist: His specialty. Every tactic he's got is something cheap designed to make his opponent think he's all that. |
| 123 | * CurbStompBattle: The first one to press Kurapika's BerserkButton. It doesn't end well. |
| 124 | * {{Cyborg}}: He has a cybernetic left ear, a metal plate on his cranium, and cybernetic implants in his hands. |
| 125 | * DirtyCoward: After all his tough talk, he turns out to be the most cowardly of the five. |
| 126 | * DumbMuscle: The musclebound oaf among the prisoners who's all talk. |
| 127 | * EarNotch: He has five notches in his right ear. |
| 128 | * FakingTheDead: Pretended to be dead to help run out the clock for his fellow prisoners so they'd be rewarded with time off their sentences. Kurapika caught on because as long as he was alive, the round would keep going, and as soon as he threatened to kill Majtani for real, he choked out of the act. |
| 129 | * GlassCannon: He's strong enough to punch a hole in the solid stone ground beneath him, but since Kurapika managed to [[CurbStompBattle lay him out with a single punch]], he's not very resilient. |
| 130 | * {{Gonk}}: He's hideous, and on top of that, he's blue. Looks like a rejected design for [[Literature/{{Frankenstein}} Frankenstein's Monster.]] |
| 131 | * MilesGloriosus: Consistently brags that he's a threat and he has definitely earned himself a prison sentence, but he's more of a wannabe loser. He even went as far as to duplicate the mark of the spider tattoo of the Phantom Troupe to use their reputation as a threat... unfortunately, this [[TraumaButton reminded Kurapika of what they did to him and he reflexively tried to kill Majtani.]] Even though Kurapika knew it was fake, his lust for blood was too strong to avoid lashing out. |
| 132 | * TheNoseless: He has a gaping hole where a nose should be. |
| 133 | * TattooedCrook: Deconstructed; it's all for show. Those heart tattoos on his chest are meant to keep track of a supposed {{kill tally}}, but he hasn't actually murdered anybody. And that Phantom Troupe tattoo on his back is also a fake, just him trying to ride on the coattails of their dangerous reputation and make himself look like a much bigger threat than he actually is. The tattoos are also contradictory; the Phantom Troupe kill so many people that they'd never bother to keep a tally. |
| 134 | * TooDumbToLive: Trying to mouth off to Johness, arguably the most dangerous of their criminal group while the others are wise enough to keep their distance. Johness quickly grabs him by the head and smashes him into the wall. From the looks of it, it didn't kill him, but still, idiotic move. |
| 135 | * UnskilledButStrong: He's strong enough to punch through solid rock, but he's too dimwitted, weak-willed, and overconfident to use his strength to any real advantage. |

| 141 | |
| 142 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_leroute.png]] |
| 143 | |
| 144 | A Trick Tower prisoner who tests the examinees of the 287th Hunter Exam. She was punished with 112 years in prison for illegal gambling and trafficking of endangered species. |
| 145 | ---- |
| 146 | * AmbiguousGender: Exploited. It's quite obvious she is female, but she invokes this trope to beat [[MrViceGuy Leorio]]. |
| 147 | * BarefootCaptives: She's barefooted just like the other prisoners. |
| 148 | * {{Bowdlerisation}}: In the Italian dub for the first anime series, her first bet with Leorio is changed from guessing her gender to betting on whether or not she's bald. |
| 149 | * BreakThemByTalking: Her specialty. Ramped up to an alarming level in the first anime, where it allowed her to become a SelfMadeOrphan. |
| 150 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: She's legitimately worried for Killua when Johness is set to be his opponent. Even finding Johness's actions horrendous. |
| 151 | * FemmeFatale: Sexy, with intoxicatingly glossy fair skin, but a psychological torture genius. |
| 152 | * NoblewomansLaugh: Though, it's more like of a SignatureLaugh of her [[Creator/MikaKanai sei]][[VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry yuu's]]. |
| 153 | * ShamelessFanserviceGirl: She's not above using her good looks to catch her opponents off guard; Leorio lost partially because of this, but still considered it a personal win because she let him cop a feel. |
| 154 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only woman among the Trick Tower prisoners. |
| 155 | * TheTease: And boy, does she love to taunt people with her voluptuousness. |

| 161 | |
| 162 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_johness.png]] |
| 163 | |
| 164 | An infamous serial killer in Zaban City and one of the prisoners in Trick Tower who tests the participants of the 287th Hunter Exam. |
| 165 | ---- |
| 166 | * AndShowItToYou: Killua kills him by ripping out his heart ''before he even realized it''. In the manga and 1999 version, Killua crushes it outright. In the anime, he invokes BeatStillMyHeart and puts it in a bag until Johness drops dead before placing it back in his hand. |
| 167 | * AssholeVictim: After all the horrible things he did, he was beyond redemption, and he got himself killed while giving into his killing impulses. And even if he had lived to see his sentence reduced, when you take that away from over nine centuries, well past the life expectancy of normal humans, it's all in vain. |
| 168 | * BarefootCaptives: Forced to go without shoes as a prisoner. |
| 169 | * CreepyMonotone: He speaks in an ominous unchanging voice even when he's making death threats to Killua, to convey his sociopathic nature. |
| 170 | * TheDreaded: The most dangerous criminal among the five. He has a gigantic body count and a prison sentence much more severe than theirs and possesses ''insane'' grip strength, enough to kill effortlessly. |
| 171 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Scaring the hell out of his own fellow inmates by giving off an intense air of BloodLust, then as soon as his electronic shackles are remotely deactivated, ''he rips the walls apart dragging his hands along them.'' |
| 172 | * ExtremityExtremist: Only kills people with his extremely powerful hands. |
| 173 | * KarmicDeath: A serial murderer killed by an assassin. Coaxed Killua into ripping his heart out, to which he noted he was out of practice as his father could do that without a drop of blood spilt. He died horribly slow, straining to realize that his body just lost its core, and gradually shut down from loss of blood flow. |
| 174 | * NamesToRunAwayFromVeryFast: "Johness the Dissector". |
| 175 | * OmnicidalManiac: Killed over a '''hundred''' people with his ''bare hands'' and racked up over '''''900''''' years in prison. That's how bad of a man he [[LastSecondWordSwap is...]] ''[[AlwaysABiggerFish Was]]''. |
| 176 | * PsychoForHire: Essentially what he became when he was utilized for a Hunter Exam. |
| 177 | * {{Sadist}}: He uses his hands to kill people because he finds it the most enjoyable. |
| 178 | * SerialKiller: Before getting arrested and sent to Trick Tower, he killed dozens of people using only his bare hands. |
| 179 | * SoftSpokenSadist: His voice is rather low and quiet as he describes his desire to rip people apart with his bare hands. |
| 180 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is it "Johness", "Jones", or "Johannes"? |
| 181 | * TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: What makes him so unsettling is how mundane he looks, especially compared to [[{{Gonk}} Majtani]], looking like a serene middle-aged man yet having a truly murderous intent. |
| 182 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: He honestly thought Killua was just a normal kid that he could take easily. Poor bastard didn't even realize he was dead before the match even started. |
| 183 | * TheWorfEffect: He appeared only to show how strong Killua was. |
| 184 | * WouldHurtAChild: He didn't discriminate when he was at large, once disemboweling a boy in public. He was fully ready to kill Killua too, but, as stated above, that'd prove to be his last mistake. |

| 196 | * FatalFlaw: After successfully stalking and stealing Gon's badge, he stops to taunt him. Then [[AxCrazy Hisoka]] arrived on the scene. |
| 197 | * OffWithHisHead: Manga only. In the 1999 anime, Hisoka kills him and just takes his hat, while in the 2011 anime, he brings Geretta's whole corpse to Gon. |
| 198 | * SunglassesAtNight: He constantly wears his sunglasses, even inside the Trick Tower. |
| 199 | * TooCleverByHalf: Geretta spends much of the 4th stage of the exam successfully stalking Gon, his target. While he could have easily stolen Gon's badge at any point, he decides to let his curiosity get the best of him and waits to see if Gon could actually pull off stealing Hisoka's badge. By the time Geretta finally makes his own move, Hisoka has given into his bloodlust and Geretta gets caught in the crossfire. |

| 212 | * GagNose: The owner of a big, bulbous, elfin nose. |
| 213 | * IronicName: "Agon" sounds a lot like "a goner". Well, guess what? |
| 214 | * OffWithHisHead: Hisoka, you have way too much fun tearing people's heads off... ([[{{Bowdlerisation}} the 2011 anime simply has Hisoka cut him down]]) |
| 215 | * OhCrap: Knows he's screwed when he sees a murder frenzied Hisoka making a beeline straight for him. |
| 216 | * SacrificialLamb: Hisoka happened to be fiending for blood and Agon was the closest thing in sight... |

| 229 | * {{Determinator}}: During the Final Phase, he fights Hisoka, and gets his ass whooped, but refuses to surrender. He does eventually surrender when Hisoka whispers something in his ear. |
| 230 | * KilledOffForReal: He is killed by a mentally unstable Killua right before his fight with Leorio. It's assumed Killua killed him so Leorio wouldn't have to fight and would become a Hunter. |
| 231 | * OldMaster: Very downplayed in the series' context, especially compared to a truly masterful Netero or Zeno. Not yet a hunter, didn't use nen and can be effortlessly killed by Killua, but he was at least about even with Leorio during the tournament and was a very spry old man who had martial arts prowess and could do one-armed pushups. |
| 232 | * SacrificialLamb: He was a good guy, but he had the misfortune of being pitted against somebody who went into a murderous trance and was dead before he knew what hit him. |
| 233 | * WouldntHurtAChild: When interviewed by Netero for the Final Phase, he stated he didn't want to fight Gon and Killua because they were children. |

| 305 | * AllThereInTheManual: InUniverse. He had a lot of information concerning the previous exams and the examinees. |
| 306 | * AwesomenessByAnalysis: Subverted. Analyzing information to draw conclusions is good and all, but if you haven't got the constitution and prowess to adapt to unexpected complications, you won't get far. |
| 307 | * BadassInANiceSuit: He ''tries'' to invoke it, anyway. He sports a ruffled silk shirt, a bowtie, and suspenders. Stylish? Maybe. But also rather impractical, and it's implied that such a stuffy outfit contributes to his exhaustion. |
| 308 | * BreakTheHaughty: He thinks he can pass the exam using data from his laptop to predict the challenges. The long run to Swindler's Swamp quickly disabuses him of that notion. |
| 309 | * {{Deconstruction}}: Of AwesomenessByAnalysis. While he is easily able to ''reach'' the exam by using data from past exams, it turns out that it takes a lot more than mere statistical analysis to actually ''pass'' that kind of challenge. |
| 310 | * FreakOut: He's already on the verge of a breakdown after his analysis turns out to be wrong, and he's running out of steam. After some mean-spirited taunting by some other contestants, his expression grows increasingly wretched before he finally collapses to his knees, clutching his head and letting out an incoherent scream. |

| 337 | * AdaptationalBadass: In the manga and 2011 version, he bows out of the exams when he's too afraid to do Menchi's revised test to jump off a cliff and retrieve spider eagle eggs from a canyon (though with good reason: with his heavy body type it's likely the web wouldn't hold his weight, the protagonists just barely avoid falling too early due to the webbing starting to buckle before the wind current came). In the 1999 version however, he doesn't hesitate and jumps in (although in this case there was no wind current, they had to climb back up after getting an egg) but does nearly fall into the river below with Gon saving him. He still fails since Gon manages to swipe back the egg Todo took from him. |
| 338 | * BountyHunter: Aims to become a Blacklist Hunter. |
| 339 | * BreakTheHaughty: He complains about the second half of the exam only to get smacked away for his trouble and how unfair the revised version was thinking it impossible until seeing Gon and his friends along with several others manage to pass it. Ultimately he realizes the strengths needed to survive in the hunting world and concedes defeat for that exam. Promising to try again next time. |

| 401 | * CurbStompCushion: He manages to last longer than others in his fight against Killua and had the latter on his guard once he unleashes his Ren. Since Killua pretty much overpowers him in every other way, the only thing he can do is to defend himself with Nen until he lost. |
| 402 | * DistressedDude: Gido, Sadaso, and Rielhvelt kidnap him to force Gon to fight them before their time limit runs out but Killua figures out that they'd do something like that and followed him, saving him by offering to deliberately lose to them. |
| 403 | * FantasticFightingStyle: He uses Shingen-ryu, a school of kung fu that incorporates nen. |
| 404 | * TheGift: He is very talented as he has a 1 in 100,000 potential, but Gon and Killua have higher potential than him. This becomes a sore spot the more he is left behind while learning Nen. |
| 405 | * KungFuKid: He's younger than Gon and Killua and practices Shingen-ryu, a martial art that uses nen. |

| 421 | * BattleTops: He can use up to fifty of these that are infused with his nen to attack anything around them. |
| 422 | * BullyingADragon: Gon and Killua were already experienced fighters, but he and his cohorts figured they'd be easy enough to pick on since they were kids and under the impression they didn't know Nen (which admittedly, they didn't at the time). Once Gon and Killua do learn it however, it's not even a contest. Gon adds extra incentive to this by breaking the pole Gido uses to get around after he beats him in his re-match as a warning not to mess with Zushi again. |
| 423 | * DidntSeeThatComing: In his rematch with Gon, he thinks Gon is going to try to snag his clothes with his fishing pole to stop his spinning. Gon indeed sling his hook at him but purposefully misses and [[ExactlyWhatIAimedAt snags the tile underneath Gido]], uprooting it and sending him flying. |
| 424 | * HandicappedBadass: Does not have legs. Has to balance on a pole where his legs can be (so he can spin like a top) and with the aid of a staff. |
| 425 | * SpectacularSpinning: He can spin himself while covered in aura to repel enemies. |
| 426 | * SpinToDeflectStuff: His Tornado Top ability does this to anyone that comes into contact with him. |

| 428 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: Sadaso, Riehlvelt, and he purposefully target Gon and Killua just based on the assumption they're kids and easy pickings. Needless to say, they're quickly proven wrong. Granted Gido does win his first match with Gon but only because Gon came into the fight ready to lose, wanting to see what he could do with Ren and use the experience to improve himself for later, plus made him work for it by nearly outlasting him. When they rematch, Gon is much more experienced in his power and gets around his tricks easily. |

Once Gon and Killua do learn it however, it's not even a contest. Sadaso doesn't even fight either of them since Killua came into his room and threatened him for his cowardly attack on Zushi just to goad the two into a match.

| 445 | * TheUnfought: After Killua sneaks into and threatens him in his room, Sadaso quickly leaves Heaven's Arena and tells the others he's not going anywhere near the place if Killua is there. Because of this he misses his scheduled matches with Gon and Killua, allowing them to win by default. |

| 459 | * HandicappedBadass: He got crippled in Heaven's Arena and cannot move his legs. He requires a tricked-out wheelchair to aid him in both his mobility and fighting, which is also his AchillesHeel, because if someone removes him from his wheelchair or disables the vehicle, he's rendered nearly helpless. |

| 473 | * AnimalMotif: The Tiger. One of his nen abilities is "Tiger Bite Fist", which puts his hands in the form of a tiger's fang and claws. |
| 474 | * AwesomeButImpractical: He has the ability to form a duplicate out of nen. It seems impressive at first until it's revealed that this nen style is the exact opposite of his innate ability, and is complicated enough that he can't learn anything else, making him a one-trick pony that's easily thwarted once the ability's weakness is found. |
| 475 | * {{Bishonen}}: He has a slender, slightly feminine face combined with long white hair. |
| 476 | * DemotedToExtra: In the 1999 anime, his fight against Hisoka is never shown. |
| 477 | * DoppelgangerAttack: He can form a double of himself out of nen that attacks Hisoka for him, sending it against him while he himself moves to a better position. His "True Tiger Bite Fist" has him attack with his double simultaneously. |
| 478 | * IWillTearYourArmsOff: He really did this to Hisoka. Twice. But Hisoka let him do it, at least the second time. |
| 479 | * LongHairedPrettyBoy: Long, white hair and a slender {{Bishonen}} face. |
| 480 | * MauveShirt: Gets a bit of characterization before gets killed off. |
| 481 | * TooDumbToLive: He wasted his time by training two nen types he could never perfectly master. This waste of potential is one of the reasons why Hisoka kills him. |
| 482 | * WeHardlyKnewYe: Only gets a few chapters/episodes worth of screentime and gets killed not long after. |

| 512 | ---- |
| 513 | * AbusiveParent: While he acts like a DotingParent who spoils Neon rotten, he is, in essence, exploiting her like a tool for his own ascension in the Mafia and ignoring taking care of her on a personal level (the MissingMom situation certainly doesn't help), explaining why Neon ended up as sheltered and messed up as she is. |
| 514 | * DespairEventHorizon: He breaks down after Neon's nen ability is stolen, after having purchased the 2.9 billion Jenny Scarlet Eyes and now without any means to pay for it. |
| 515 | * TheDon: Boss of the Nostrade Family. |
| 516 | * DotingParent: Only because of Neon's ability, since he's used her as his "weapon" to ascend in the Mafia. |

| 518 | * KickTheDog: [[ObliviouslyEvil Unintentionally]] does so as he presents the Kurta eyes of Kurapika's dead kinsmen to his daughter Neon as a gift that means nothing of any deeper value while Kurapika is right there within earshot. |
| 519 | * UncertainDoom: Implied by association [[spoiler: due to the fact that Chrollo lost Neon's fortune telling ability.

| 527 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_neon.png]] |
| 528 | |
| 529 | The daughter of crime boss Light Nostrade, her father exploits her nen ability to rise in the ranks of the Mafia. Neon is aware of the leverage she has with her father and their relationship consists mainly of each trying to get as much out of the other as possible--in exchange for reading the futures of Mafia clients, Neon receives whatever she wants. Pouty and spoiled, Neon has a tendency to throw temper tantrums like a little girl.\ |
| 530 | |
| 531 | She has the Nen ability to predict the future through quatrains she writes down unconsciously. The fortune's recipient must write their name, full date of birth, and blood type on the piece of paper she uses to write the poem. It is unknown how she discovered her Hatsu, but she has long had a fascination with fortune tellers. She becomes unable to use her Nen ability because it gets stolen by Chrollo Lucilfer. |
| 532 | ----- |
| 533 | * AlliterativeName: '''N'''eon '''N'''ostrade. |
| 534 | * AmbiguousInnocence: In addition to being regularly exploited by her father for his own career advancement and being manipulated by Chrollo Lucilfer, Neon shows zero understanding of just how much people could be hurt and offended by her own SpoiledBrat attitude and her tendencies for being cruel and callous, thinking only of herself like a self-absorbed child would. |
| 535 | * AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:Chrollo being unable to use Neon's ability because it disappeared from his book would imply that Neon is now dead, but we never see this happen on-screen and no one even outright confirms it in uncertain words, so it's left a vague UncertainDoom.]] |
| 536 | * AssholeVictim: Lucifer attacking a 16-year old girl he pretended to befriend and stealing her abilities doesn't exactly do wonders for his level of audience sympathy, but when said teenage girl is a SpoiledBrat who openly admonishes the dead body parts of Kuripaka's clan, it makes you feel a lot less disturbed by him. |
| 537 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: She looks and initially acts like a spoiled but harmless teenage girl. Then we learn she's a depraved NightmareFetishist who is obsessed with human body parts and goes into shrieking, even violent temper tantrums whenever she doesn't get her way. |
| 538 | * BroughtDownToNormal: Chrollo steals her Nen ability through a covert conversation. |
| 539 | * FortuneTeller: Her Nen ability. She needs one's handwritten name, birthdate, and bloodtype to write a poem, with each verse representing a week of the current month and events represented as metaphors. If someone follows the poem's warnings they can avoid their fortune. |
| 540 | * GenkiGirl: A deconstructed example. She is an overly hyperactive person, but this results in her having a complete lack of morality and engaging in irresponsible behaviors. |
| 541 | * HiddenDepths: When talking to Chrollo, she reveals how she got her Nen ability and also discusses her beliefs about the afterlife. She also leaves Yorknew quietly because her maid, Eliza, is heartbroken after her boyfriend Squala’s death. |
| 542 | * KickTheDog: [[ObliviouslyEvil Unintentional]], but one can only imagine how Kurapika feels as Neon squeals over getting a pair of his kinsmen’s eyes, although from what he says he seems to blame her father for this macabre hobby of hers more than her. |
| 543 | * LackOfEmpathy: Upon hearing of Dalzollene’s death, she cares little for anything but whether the items she wanted at the auction are safe. To be fair, [[PetTheDog the death of her maid's boyfriend is enough to get her to abandon the auction,]] so it's possible she simply wasn't close to Dalzollene like she was to Eliza. |
| 544 | * TheLoad: She spends most of the Yorknew Arc being escorted and inconveniencing everyone with her childish behavior. |
| 545 | * MafiaPrincess: And it's thanks to her abilities that her dad's as high up in the Mafia as he is. |
| 546 | * MissingMom: Now there's a curious question? Where is Mrs. Nostrade? [[BastardBastard Supposing she was a Mrs.]] |
| 547 | * NightmareFetishist: She collects body parts which is why the Nostrade Family goes to Yorknew City to attend the Southernpiece Auction. |
| 548 | * [[NotSoStoic Not So Genki]]: She snaps out of her childish attitude once she sees Eliza's distress over Squala's death. |
| 549 | * ObliviouslyEvil: Neon's "hobby." Sick and disturbing to most, but totally fun and interesting for her. |
| 550 | * PetTheDog: Although she's utterly desensitized to death, Eliza's grief over Squala's death does sadden her, enough to abandon the auction or any attempt at recovering the (fake) Scarlet Eyes. |
| 551 | ** There's also a literal example of this trope from her in the 1999 anime. |
| 552 | * PowerLossDepression: During the Yorknew City arc, Neon had her fortune telling Nen ability stolen by Phantom Troupe leader Chrollo Lucilfer. Later, Neon is shown to have fallen into a major depression, with her father's criminal empire crumbling as its finances were heavily dependent on his daughter's powers (especially inconvenient since he recently spent 2.9 billion Jenny at an auction) and later [[spoiler: taken over by Kurapika]]. |
| 553 | * PsychopathicWomanchild: She's 16 yet she collects body parts, is prone to tantrums when things don't go her way, and in generally behaves much younger than her age. |
| 554 | * ReflectionlessUselessEyes: When she makes prophecy through automatic writing, her eyes lose luster. |
| 555 | * SpoiledBrat: She throws violent tantrums whenever things don't go her way, which is enabled by her father trying to keep her happy so she will use her nen ability for him. |
| 556 | * StrawNihilist: She voices a lack of belief in the afterlife all because some fortuneteller she looks up to doesn't, either. Unless that's actually her absent mother (which would be a very fitting but dark twist), she's basically just aping that person's beliefs. |
| 557 | * TooDumbToLive: While what happened to Neon is tragic, it's kind of hard to feel too sorry for her considering not only was she an AssholeVictim, but she outright ignored every warning and instruction given to her by her father and bodyguards while the Phantom Troupe rampaged through Yorknew, meaning she practically brought this on herself. |
| 558 | * UncertainDoom: [[spoiler:Chrollo can no longer tell fortunes for the Troupe members because her ability disappeared from his book. Abilities only disappear if the original owner died, implying that Neon died at some point. This is not confirmed, not even after Kurapika takes over her family's crime syndicate.]] |
| 559 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: It's not known what happened to her and her father once Kurapika took over Light's crime syndicate. [[spoiler:It's implied by her ability's disappearance from Chrollo's book that she died at some point, though it's not known either whether her supposed demise had something to do with Chrollo either or simply one of her father's enemies, or [[UncertainDoom if she's even really dead at all]].]] |

| 567 | |
| 568 | A woman who became disfigured after hearing the flute solo for the Sonata of Darkness, from which she gained superhuman hearing that can hear the heartbeats of others and be used to read emotions and state of mind. After his event, she entered and passed the Hunter Exams. She now works as a Musical Hunter, gathering pieces of the song to destroy it after her friend was killed and horribly dismembered listening to the whole thing. She becomes one of Neon's bodyguards to try to get closer to the song but they are disbanded when the Nostrade Family runs out of funds.\ |
| 569 | |
| 570 | Her Nen ability involves channeling her aura into her flute music to play songs with various effects. She can can alleviate fatigue, calm listeners, and enchant them to the point of obliviousness. |
| 571 | ----- |
| 572 | * BodyHorror: Her exposed flesh is horrendous enough to surprise Kurapika. |
| 573 | * CoolBigSis: Acts as one to Kurapika. She is affectionate to and watches out for him, acting as his SecretKeeper and calming him down in his bouts of vengeance. |
| 574 | * CursedWithAwesome: The Sonata of Darkness mutated her body, but developed her hearing skills enough to hear heartbeats. |
| 575 | * DubNameChange: Her name is Senritsu in the original Japanese version as well as in other localizations, but the English localization translates her name from Japanese into English. |
| 576 | * ExcellentJudgeOfCharacter: Her ability also allows her to judge the characters of people and she can hear through their lies, which is why she's an ally of Kurapika since she's able to judge his personality accurately without pushing his buttons, and her kind nature helps in that regard. Her inner monologue also allows the reader to give an insight of Prince Kacho being nicer than she pretends. |
| 577 | * FailureKnight: [[spoiler:Melody was unable to prevent Prince Kacho's death and blames herself for that, so she's determined to follow Kacho's wish to protect her twin sister Prince Fugetsu.]] |
| 578 | * {{Gonk}}: She's a short, overweight lady with a half-bald head and buckteeth, although she still manages to be kinda cute. In the Succession War arc, Prince Kacho hired bodyguards by judging their looks (as written in the job post), and all her bodyguards were ugly people, including Melody. |
| 579 | * IJustWantToBeBeautiful: She was apparently beautiful before the Sonata of Darkness deformed her body. Part of her wish to reverse its effects has to do with regaining her previous appearance. |
| 580 | * LadyLooksLikeADude: PlayedForLaughs, after meeting her for the first time, Kurapika calls her a man, which she gets pissed at. |
| 581 | * LivingLieDetector: Because of her ability to hear even the slightest changes of heartbeats, she is really useful when interrogating people. It backfires horribly when she interrogates Chrollo: the ''lack'' of change [[TheStoic in his heartbeat]] drives the poor woman to an HeroicBSOD. |
| 582 | * MagicMusic: |
| 583 | ** Her Nen ability. By playing her flute she can alleviate tiredness and even calm down a vengeful Kurapika with a nice song. |
| 584 | ** She can even enchant many people at a time with her song, even when it's broadcast, to the point that listeners are completely oblivious to their environment for up to three minutes. |
| 585 | * NiceGirl: She's one of the kindest, gentlest characters in the series. |
| 586 | * SecretKeeper: She keeps Kurapika's secret that he's the last Kurta out to avenge his clan against the Phantom Troupe and take back their scarlet eyes. |
| 587 | * SheKnowsTooMuch: Kurapika would have killed her if she had revealed that he is a Kurta. |
| 588 | * SuperSenses: Her sense of hearing is simply ''godly''. It allows her to hear heartbeats, which can be used to discern targets' emotions. |
| 589 | * VocalDissonance: Has a lovely, unusually feminine voice for someone of her appearance. |

| 727 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: Thanks to his technique he manages to anchor Uvo to the ground by holding onto his arm. However, it also makes him a sitting duck, unable to dodge Uvo's following attack. |
| 728 | * NotQuiteDead: In the 2011 series, he manages to recover from Uvo's Big Bang Impact enough to call the other Shadow Beasts before dying. |
| 729 | * PunchPunchPunchUhOh: He broke his fingers after punching Uvo. It was only one punch though. |

| 739 | ---- |
| 740 | * AnimalMotifs: Leeches. He's a sadistic guy who holds leeches in his body. |
| 741 | * TheBeastmaster: Of leeches, specifically the spotted leech. They can make their way to the host's bladder through their flesh before laying eggs that cause enough pain to kill someone when they hatch. |
| 742 | * BodyHorror: He holds leeches inside his body that come out of his mouth. |
| 743 | * CodeName: He's known as Leech. |
| 744 | * {{Gonk}}: He's a fat guy with a large nose. Combined with his grayish skin, he's not conventionally attractive by any means. |
| 745 | * LogicalWeakness: His leeches' eggs need enough ammonia to match or they'll just be urinated out. Uvogin drinks enough beer for this not to be a problem. |
| 746 | * OffWithHisHead: Part of it anyway. It was ''bitten off'' by Uvo. |
| 747 | * PsychoForHire: From the looks of it, he seemed really to enjoy infecting Uvo with those leeches. |
| 748 | * VocalDissonance: For such a big guy he has a rather shrill, high-pitched voice in the 2011 series. |
| 749 | * WeHardlyKnewYe: He's simply characterized as a sadistic guy with powers over leeches before he's quickly killed by Uvogin. |
| 750 | * WeaksauceWeakness: The leech eggs he implants in his victims can be excised by just getting them out of the body before they hatch. Because the leach eggs nest in his bladder, Shalnark suggests Uvo just [[TheAlcoholic pisses them out by drinking a truckload of his favorite beer]], which ''works''. |

| 808 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_genthru.png]] |
| 809 | |
| 810 | The ArcVillain of the Greed Island Arc, known as "The Bomber". First appears as a generous veteran willing to aid others to collectively beat the game. His real goal however is to clear the game solo (actually with a couple of accomplices) by any means necessary, presumably for the large cash reward, as he appears in Battera's castle when he leaves the game (Battera was offering a massive reward for finishing the game). A ruthless, cold-blooded killer, he executes anyone who interferes with his goal. He treats everyone but his two subordinates as expendable and kills often for no reason but convenience or to further his plans.\ |
| 811 | |
| 812 | He has two Nen abilities: he can place a time bomb on someone after explaining his ability and its conditions (including how to deactivate it) and touching them and saying "bomber." Should anyone try to deactivate it, he can also create smaller explosions, burning and blasting anything he grabs with his hands. |
| 813 | ----- |
| 814 | * ArcVillain: Of Greed Island. He and his team collect cards in extremely violent ways and they very close in obtaining all the cards until Gon, Killua and Biscuit defeat them. |
| 815 | * BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Him, Bara, and Sub respectively. |
| 816 | * TheChessmaster: Steals cards through trickery, which, due to his use of Greed Island's AppliedPhlebotinum, even worked when the opponent knew something was up. |
| 817 | * TheDreaded: He’s the most feared player on Greed Island by virtue of his anonymity and lethal nature of his ability. |
| 818 | * EasilyForgiven: Despite killing several players and mauling Gon, the latter and his friends are satisfied with roughing them up a bit before healing their injuries. When Goreinu objects, Killua admits that he's an assassin with a much higher body count, and Genthru's victims at least knew they were putting their lives at risk by entering Greed Island. |
| 819 | * ExactWords: The conditions for Countdown are that he has to touch his opponent and say "Bomber", and explain the ability to his opponent. The lack of a "then" in the conditions means he can do it in either order, touching the opponent first and then explaining the ability, or explaining the ability and then touching them. |
| 820 | * ExplainingYourPowerToTheEnemy: {{Justified|Trope}}, since his Countdown ability will only activate after he explains it and how to deactivate it. |
| 821 | * AFatherToHisMen: He rolls the Risky Dice, which could kill him, to show his solidarity with his comrades. After his defeat, he promptly asks Gon to heal his companions first. |
| 822 | * FauxAffablyEvil: To normal players, he tries to seem like anybody else at first. Once he's tapped his targets and seeks to entrap them, however, he happily details his Nen ability to his foes as he soaks in their despair at the likelihood of an imminent demise as well as the fact that he is going to kill them all anyway. No one but unfortunate rookie players he gets to first bother to trust him at face value after that -- not that it matters, given that he kills most of the Greed Island players off-screen anyway. |
| 823 | * FlowerMotif: His second ability is called Little Flower, which allows him to blow things up with his palms. Little Flower and his other ability Countdown are the first in the series to connect the theme of flowers with bombs, which would later be followed by the Miniature Rose in the Chimera Ant arc, also known as the "poor man's rose" which is a commonly known and mass-produced dirty bomb. |
| 824 | * GenreSavvy: |
| 825 | ** The moment Gon avoids his first attack, Genthru realizes Gon not only knows that he's the Bomber, but that Gon knows about his Little Flower ability. |
| 826 | ** On a larger level, when Genthru uses his abilities, he makes it a point to kill his opponent, so that info about his powers can't get out. |
| 827 | * GracefulLoser: He didn't expect whatsoever to lose, but after Gon manages to best him, Genthru doesn't attempt any more tricks, [[AFatherToHisMen asks Gon's team to heal his heavily injured ally first]], and accepts his loss wholesale. |
| 828 | * {{Greed}}: Like many players, Genthru is hired by Battera to complete the game for him, in exchange for a huge sum of money. The money is Genthru's motivation to clear Greed Island, and he and his team use deadly violence in order to achieve that mission, with disregard of the lives of others. He's basically the personification of greed on Greed Island. |
| 829 | * HavingABlast: His Nen ability Little Flower blows up anything he grabs in his palms. It's less powerful than his Countdown, however, but it's deadly enough to seriously or fatally injure the opponent, which is why approaching him is dangerous. |
| 830 | * HiddenDepths: Genthru is not nearly as developed or well-written as other ''Hunter x Hunter'' antagonists and lacks any mystery, which makes him a very straightforward character and he's very functional as a traditional ''shounen'' ArcVillain. While greed for money is his only motivation, he is surprisingly AFatherToHisMen, and his bomb and flower motifs seem to retroactively connect him with the later revealed Miniature Rose from the next arc, a commonly known dirty bomb. |
| 831 | * ISurrenderSuckers: Baits Gon in their fight into thinking he's surrendering so he can try to crush Gon's throat and cut off his voice from using further cards. He succeeds -- and Gon promptly turns the fight around through careful pre-planned drawings of two cards and their one minute auto-activate timers that cut off Genthru's options. |
| 832 | -->'''Gon:''' Genthru. ''[[TranquilFury That was the worst possible option you could've chosen.]]'' |
| 833 | * {{Irony}}: The Bomber is a calculating man who pretends to be crazy in order to appear as threatening as possible, so that he can negotiate easier with his opponents. In the end, he faces a child who's hard to negotiate with, and the Bomber realizes that said kid is crazy. |
| 834 | * KickTheDog: Detonating the bombs on his former comrades after using them to blackmail them into giving him their cards. Made worse because he laughs about it. |
| 835 | * LackOfEmpathy: He has zero regards for the lives of other people besides his two partners. |
| 836 | * LockedOutOfTheLoop: Near the end of the arc, Genthru is unaware that his client Battera has cancelled the mission at the last minute. So, even if Genthru's team have succeeded in clearing the game and obtaining the card Battera originally desired, [[AllForNothing they wouldn't have been paid anyway]]. |
| 837 | * MadBomber: He gleefully blows up several Greed Island players. That said, he's not really an insane person and he likes to pretend that he's crazy to appear threatening, so that it would be easier for him to negotiate. He's actually cool-headed and calculating. |
| 838 | * ManipulativeBastard: He is part of a group gathering spell cards, which will be used to steal cards from other players and complete the game. This group seeks out those with few fighting abilities, who would therefore be willing to team up (thus dividing the reward). All Genthru has to do is wait, covertly placing bombs on the others. His fighting skills prevent anyone from touching him and deactivating them, and he uses the threat of the bombs to take all the cards for himself. He also fakes being a blood-thirsty, crazy killer to ensure that the opposite will give him their cards without a fight. |
| 839 | * MyKungFuIsStrongerThanYours: To Gon, who he outclasses completely in fighting skills. This comes back to bite him in the butt, when Gon uses his arrogance to lure him into a trap. |
| 840 | * OhCrap: First he manages to blow off Gon's left hand and severely damage his right wrist, only to realize the boy did so intentionally to get a solid hit in on him; Genthru is internally thinking YoureInsane. Not long thereafter, Gon traps him into a corner and point-blank range for his technique, at which point Genthru immediately [[AintTooProudToBeg screams that he surrenders.]] Too late to save him from a blow that barely averted killing him. |
| 841 | * PlayerKilling: Not that he's the only one, but Genthru easily has the biggest body count in the entire Greed Island arc as he uses his bombs to force some poor bastards to get cards for him before killing them all, and outright murders nearly a dozen players Gon and Killua met. Considering the players are living beings, the island is a real place, and the game doesn't do anything to save a defeated or fatally wounded player, he's essentially a mass murderer. |
| 842 | * RequiredSecondaryPowers: Genthru needs to use Gyo to protect his own hands from exploding whenever he activates Little Flower, which leaves him wide open elsewhere. Gon manages to prevent him from using it again by splashing him with gasoline, implying that he could set himself ablaze with his own ability. |
| 843 | * SmugSnake: Believing that Gon's group is just a bunch of kids is his major mistake. |
| 844 | * StuffBlowingUp: The theme of his Nen abilities: placing a time bomb or blowing anything in his hands up. |
| 845 | * VillainousBreakdown: After an entire arc of being ahead of the heroes at every step, Genthru suffers a massive breakdown the more he realizes that for the great skill gap between himself and Gon, Gon is batshit fucking insane enough to throw all logic to the wind, fight on a suicidal level, and still be sharp enough to get him trapped for a Jajanken at point-blank. The ''sheer terror'' that Genthru exhibits is glorious. |
| 846 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The last time he appears, he and his partners were still tied up. It's unknown if he was imprisoned or if he escaped. |
| 847 | * WhoWillBellTheCat: He uses this to his advantage as an intimidation tactic against the group he betrays when he reveals himself as the Bomber. Despite being vastly outnumbered, his skill gaurantees that the first people who attack him will be killed by his Little Flower bombs, and as Abengane notes, no sane person would willingly sacrifice themself for someone else. |
| 848 | * WhyAmITicking: His Nen ability Countdown attaches a time bomb if he touches the target while saying "Bomber" and explains both of his abilities, which he can do in either order. The timer speeds up if their heart rate increases. |
| 849 | * YoureInsane: He would beat Gon in a straight-up fight without much issue, but Gon baits Genthru into using his bombs and destroying Gon's left hand and right wrist. ''Just to be able to leave Genthru vulnerable enough to land a solid and powerful blow''. He promptly thinks Gon is absolutely ''bonkers'' after this, contributing to a VillainousBreakdown the more he falls into Gon's trap. |

| 885 | |
| 886 | A muscle-bound man who first appears to banish the Phantom Troupe members who were trespassing on Greed Island. Just seeing him is enough to make [[HotBlooded Phinks]] stop the others from attacking, though they outnumber him six to one. Using a spell card, he sends them out of the game, while inviting them to come back and challenge him legitimately. Then, he casually destroys their boat with Nen. He later appears as the guardian of "Plot of Beach", a card needed to clear the game. All the main characters need to do to get it is to beat Razor's group in sporting events--lethal sporting events. Razor is a death row convict, captured and hired under contract by Ging Freecs to be a Game Master. His group are also death row convicts who he presumably hired. His name was the basis for the R in Greed Island's name.\ |
| 887 | |
| 888 | He has two Nen abilities: he can emit and throw balls of Nen, treating them like volleyballs, and split his aura into eight humanoid Nen beasts that can fuse to form a stronger monster. |
| 889 | ----- |
| 890 | * AbusiveParents: He was physically and verbally abused by his father, who rarely called him by his name and insulted him. |
| 891 | * AntiVillain: Bordering on PunchClockVillain; It becomes fairly clear that Razor is more or less a plant by Ging to help Gon power up, and he's incredibly fair regarding the rules about Nen in his dodgeball game. |
| 892 | * BadBoss: {{Justified|Trope}}. Uses Nen to blow apart the head of a convict who first revealed that Greed Island was a real place and then tried to start a mutiny. Gon, thinking that the convict was Razor's friend, thought that Razor was this. |
| 893 | * BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: He's loyal to Ging because he treated him with respect. |
| 894 | * BloodKnight: His response to Biscuit telling him he shouldn't be gassing up Gon to further power up his incoming Jajanken volleyball spike more is essentially going [[LetsGetDangerous "Yeah, that's the whole fun of it, why do think I went through all the hoops to arrange this?"]] |
| 895 | * BreakTheBadass: Scares off the [[PersonOfMassDestruction Phantom Troupe]]. |
| 896 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: In a way. He remarks that Ging, after catching him, redeemed him. Ging believed in Razor enough to entrust him with the mission of one day fighting Gon. |
| 897 | * DodgeballIsHell: ExaggeratedTrope. By encasing a dodgeball with Nen, his throws are strong enough to deal grievous injury to or kill anyone unfortunate enough to get hit. And it's heavily implied that dodgeball is his way of giving the opponent a winning chance, since Razor is obviously a volleyball player primarily, due to the way some of his techniques are performed. |
| 898 | * EnergyBall: He can produce these on his own with enough power to destroy a large boat. He wraps ordinary volleyballs in these to make them near-sonic speed and ''very'' deadly. |
| 899 | * EyesAlwaysShut: He almost always has his eyes closed, except in the flashback in which he met Ging. |
| 900 | * FatFlex: Not himself, but two of his 14 Devils do this a split second [[https://i.makeagif.com/media/5-14-2019/RWnBjw.gif upon combining]]. |
| 901 | * FightingSpirit: The 14 Devils, which he forms out of his Nen. They can combine to form a stronger Nen Beast. He also has a "[=0th=]" Devil who acts as the impartial judge of the dodgeball game. |
| 902 | * FreudianExcuse: Flashbacks show him being beaten and told that he is worthless, which led him to become a murderer. It also shows that showing him kindness and respect was enough for him to |
| 903 | * LargeAndInCharge: Razor is one of the Game Masters of Greed Island and built like an absolute tank of a man. |
| 904 | * LongRangeFighter: Although he's most likely no slouch in close-range, he's only been seen using his nen to emit destructive aura spheres he hurls at enemies. |
| 905 | * ReformedCriminal: He was a murderer about to be executed before Ging hired him to be a Game Master on Greed Island. Ging redeemed him after he treated Razor with respect and thus Razor applies that same respect to others now... assuming they follow the rules. |
| 906 | * SadistTeacher: He looks and acts like an AffablyEvil gym teacher. Justified in that he is trying to make Gon stronger. See TrainingFromHell below. |

| 931 | ---- |
| 932 | * AntiMagic: If you see Nen as magic, it's basically this. Abengane being a Nen Exorcist has the ability to remove Nen imposed from others or seal Nen away that's placed on them. As such, he's able to seal Genthru's bomb on his body and prevent it from exploding, and he later removes Kurapika's Judgement Chain from Chrollo's heart. |
| 933 | * GenreSavvy: He's right to assume that Genthru won't keep his word of keeping Nickes' alliance alive, thus Abengane takes measures to ensure his survival by using his exorcism abilities to seal the bomb on his body until he can deactivate the bomb successfully. He also informs Gon's group about Genthru even the Bomber to further increase his survivability and to have someone take care of Genthru. |
| 934 | * OnlyInItForTheMoney: Like many other players in the game, his {{Greed}} for money is his prime motivation. After having deactivated the bomb on his body, he decides to get rich from Nen Exorcism, regardless who the client is. |
| 935 | * TokenMinority: He's the only black-skinned player on Greed Island. He's the arc's only dark-skinned character in the manga, period. Bopobo only has dark skin in the anime. |
| 936 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: He's a minor character and doesn't get much focus, but thanks to him informing Gon and his group about Genthru being the bomber and how his abilities work, Gon is able to defeat Genthru and clear the game. Abengane removing Kurapika's Judgement Chain on Chrollo allows the latter to come back in the story, which would later change Hisoka's objective in the story. We don't even get to see how Abengane has removed the Nen on Chrollo. |

| 952 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_mito.png]] |
| 953 | |
| 954 | Ging's cousin and Gon's first cousin once removed whom he refers to as "Aunt Mito". She adopted Gon when he was a baby and hid that Ging was alive. She didn't want Gon to become a hunter but accepted to let him go when he caught the master of the swamp. |
| 955 | ---- |
| 956 | * AdoptivePeerParent: While she's actually his cousin, Mito serves as Gon's mom and he views her as such, Mito is 24 at the start of the series to Gon's 12, a twelve year age difference; she gained custody of Gon when he was 2, meaning ''[[AbsurdlyYouthfulMother she was 13 or 14!]]'' |
| 957 | * ChildhoodFriends: She and Ging were about the only children of roughly the same age living on the island; understandably, she isn't very happy at the fact that Ging left Whale Island, never to look back. She is Ging's oldest and arguably closest friend, and even then, he manages to keep her annoyed most of the time. |
| 958 | * DrowningMySorrows: She's shown drinking wine and tries one last time to stop Gon a week before he leaves for the Hunter Exam. This is also the time she unwittingly reveals that she forcefully took custody of him from Ging instead of Ging abandoning him. This is removed in the 2011 adaptation. |
| 959 | * NotSoAboveItAll: Though she always refers to Ging with anger and disappointment, she loves him enough to have raised his son with little qualms and her home always has open doors for him to visit. Keep in mind, Ging doesn't visit Whale Island very often, but he always comes to Mito regardless. |
| 960 | * ParentalSubstitute: Gon considers her his mother. |
| 961 | * PromotionToParent: She was already a member of his family before she adopted him. |
| 962 | * RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: In the 1999 version, Mito's grandmother is changed into her mother and Gon's mother is changed into Mito's sister. This changes her relationship from Gon's cousin to his aunt and her relationship with Ging to sister-in-law rather than a cousin. |
| 963 | * {{Tsundere}}: She has a penchant for talking about Ging mainly to complain about his globetrotting carefree lifestyle. She still cares for him enough to have her home's doors open for him whenever he stops by. |

| 999 | ---- |
| 1000 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: Subverted, what was brought back was just a nen puppet created by Omokage in order to steal Kurapika’s eyes.]] |
| 1001 | * Childhood Friends: Was one for Kurapika, they dreamt of exploring the world and becoming Hunters. |
| 1002 | * DelicateAndSickly: He had impaired vision and weak legs, Kurapika made a promise that he would find a way to help him during his travels across the world. |
| 1003 | * EyeScream: Presumably met this fate along with the rest of his clan. |
| 1004 | * OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler: Most certainly. We can see a blurred severed kid's head in a crystal jar that resembles disturbingly the same as Pairo's, as part of the scarlet eyes collection owned by Tserriednich, the 4th prince of Kakin.]] |

| 1017 | * ChekhovsSkill: His technique permitted Gon and Killua to escape from Nobunaga. |
| 1018 | * TheGift: As a genius, he didn't need to learn Nen. He uses it unconsciously in forging artifacts that Gon and Killua can see his Aura from his creations. |
| 1019 | * IntrepidMerchant: He's knowledgeable about auctions and knows ways to earn more money in selling an item. Gon trusts him to deal with their money-raising problems and he was able to raise enough money to buy back Gon's license in a few days (though he had to sell his organs to meet the deadline). |
| 1020 | * NiceGuy: He's a friendly, kind guy, preventing a pawn shop owner from scamming Gon and Killua and helping them raise money for the auction. |
| 1021 | * OldShame: In-Universe. Before becoming an appraiser, he was an art forger. These days he makes an effort to buy back his old work out of embarrassment. |
| 1022 | * OnlyInItForTheMoney: Tried to become a Hunter to sell his card as he has to use his own organs as collateral to buy back Gon's Hunter License. He's promptly knocked out by Killua at the 288th Hunter Exam. |

| 1030 | |
| 1031 | A multi-billionaire who spent a lot of his fortune to buy as many copies of the game Greed Island as he could afford. |
| 1032 | ---- |
| 1033 | * AllForNothing: He turned what should have been a training simulator created by a veteran Hunter to make his son stronger into an unwitting death trap (or for some, just a trap) hoping to find someone who can win the game [[spoiler:and get his lover out of her coma using the spells inside. It fails, as said lover passes away before the arc concludes.]] |
| 1034 | * DespairEventHorizon: Hits this when he finds out his lover passed away. |
| 1035 | * DidntThinkThisThrough: He offered a substantial reward to all Nen users if they can enter and win Greed Island, without thinking of just how ''difficult'' the game would be (it was meant as a Nen training simulator, after all). It also never occurred to him to hire the most potent Hunters first and have them scope out how the game operated, [[spoiler:in order to maximize his chances of reviving his lover.]] |
| 1036 | * EccentricMillionaire: {{Downplayed}}, while spending billions on video games does sound like something only an eccentric person would do. [[spoiler:He did it so that he could acquire the game items to save his lover]]. |
| 1037 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Greed Island was supposed to be a training simulator for Gon created by his father Ging. But Battera heard of the fantastic spells within it, including one that could cure any illness (Angel's Breath) and one that could reverse the effects of aging (Witch's Rejuvenation Potion). So he bought up all the copies he could, used his power and influence to hide the truth behind the game, and offered a substantial reward to anyone who could win it, [[spoiler:all to try and revive his beloved.]] The result? Dozens if not hundreds of people dead due to the heavy competition, most of them at the hands of a psychotic Nen user. The blood may be on Genthru's hands, but it drips onto Battera's. |

| 1043 | |
| 1044 | [[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hxh_komugi.png]] |
| 1045 | |
| 1046 | A blind girl who's the undefeated champion of gungi, a fictional board game. After the Chimera Ant King had beaten various East Gorteau champs at board games and killed them, he took in Komugi but was unable to beat her. Because she's blind, she's unable to recognize the Chimera Ant King as a monster and thinks of him as a WorthyOpponent gungi player. She unintentionally awoke the compassion inside the King, and as he continues to associate with her, he becomes friendlier. Komugi gets injured after Netero and Zeno attack the palace, and Neferpitou is assigned to use their healing powers to allow her to recover. During the confusion following Gon's fight with Pitou, Palm hides her. |
| 1047 | ----- |
| 1048 | * TheAce: Komugi is undefeated in Gungi. |
| 1049 | * AdaptationDyeJob: In the manga, her eyes and hair are brown. In the 2011 anime, they change to green and white, respectively. |
| 1050 | * AllOrNothing: As she explains, the only way professional gungi players can make a living wage is by being tournament champions, hence, one loss could prove devastating to them. Because she's blind, if she should lose her standing she would be an unforgivable burden upon her family--she would rather [[DrivenToSuicide die]] than allow that to happen. Thus, she stakes her life on every match. |
| 1051 | * BadassNormal: Meruem beat various professional players at their own games with his only prior experience being what he read in the rule book. Komugi defeats him at gungi each and every time they play, and she doesn't even use any Nen powers...at first. |
| 1052 | * BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: After Meruem saves her from being attacked by hawk and refers to her as an honored guest, she cries tears of happiness. |
| 1053 | * BigOlEyebrows: She has thick, black eyebrows in contrast with her white hair. |
| 1054 | * BlindAndTheBeast: The Blind to the king's beast. |
| 1055 | * BloodSplatteredInnocents: A spray of blood hits her her face when the King rips off his own arm. |
| 1056 | * DyingDeclarationOfLove: The translator notes that her choice of words in one of her responses to the King as [[spoiler:he's near death and she's also about to die]] is similar to a pledge of marriage from a bride. |
| 1057 | * EmpoweredBadassNormal: Towards the end of the Chimera Ant arc, she develops Nen and becomes overwhelmed by the sheer number of strategies she thinks of, to the point where she asks to excuse herself and collect her thoughts. |
| 1058 | * EyesAlwaysShut: Except when she plays Gungi. |
| 1059 | * GameFace: Her eyes open wide with a serious expression once she starts playing Gungi, prompting Meruem to question if she was actually blind. She offered to close her eyes if it bothered him, but he didn’t mind. |
| 1060 | * GeniusDitz: She is a genius with amazing skills at Gungi, her aura is visible sometimes when she is playing. Meruem can hardly believe that such a brilliant mind would nearly suffocate herself by taking his command to keep her mouth shut too literally, and drool heavily while asleep. |
| 1061 | * HiddenBuxom: {{Downplayed}}. She doesn't have large breasts, but she looks extremely flat-chested in her normal attire, which is not the case. |
| 1062 | * HonorBeforeReason: After the King severs his own arm, she outright refuses to play against him until he gets his wound treated properly, even on pain of death. |
| 1063 | * InelegantBlubbering: Complete with snot coming out of her nose. |
| 1064 | * InterspeciesRomance: She (a human) and Meruem (a chimera ant). |
| 1065 | * LosingIsWorseThanDeath: Komugi plays every game of gungi as a life or death struggle, as she fully intends to kill herself should she lose even ''once''. |
| 1066 | * MoralityPet: |
| 1067 | ** Komugi's presence is what helps the human-eating, arrogant Meruem change his ways. |
| 1068 | ** PlayedForDrama with regards to Pitou. Unlike Pouf and Youpi, who dislike Komugi's influence on the King and would rather see her gone, the otherwise AxCrazy Pitou respects the King's regard for her and extends her protection to Komugi when the King asks out of loyalty. Unfortunately, Gon walks in on Pitou healing Komugi and is aghast that Pitou could do such a thing as ''heal'' when they had so carelessly killed Gon's mentor figure Kite, and darkly holds Komugi hostage if Pitou will not do as he says. |
| 1069 | * NiceGirl: Kind and self-effacing to a fault. |
| 1070 | * {{Older Than They Look}}: Komugi states that she came up with a Gungi Strategy, ten years ago, which implies that she's at least a teenager or even a adult. |
| 1071 | * ReflectionlessUselessEyes: She was concerned that they might be unsettling for Meruem when she opens them, but he didn’t mind. |
| 1072 | * ScheherezadeGambit: While the other game masters die pretty horribly, Komugi only survives because Meruem keeps losing to her and finds her interesting. She doesn't know Meruem is planning to kill her when she loses - not that it matters, because Komugi plays ''every'' game of competitive gungi with the resolve to die should she ever lose just once, and even that price is cheap in her eyes because she's essentially trading the life of a loser. It's part of what gains her the King's respect and admiration. |
| 1073 | * SelfDeprecation: Has a low opinion of herself and will consider herself trash if she loses at Gungi. |
| 1074 | * SeriousBusiness: Gungi! She would kill herself if she loses just one time. |
| 1075 | * SpannerInTheWorks: She's the unintentional instigator of the King's moral development and her interactions with him are ultimately what give the Extermination Team multiple openings to defeat the Chimera Ants. |
| 1076 | * StayWithMeUntilIDie: [[spoiler: As Meruem dies from a contagious poison, she chooses to stay by his side. Which leads to them being...]] |
| 1077 | * TogetherInDeath: She's also afflicted with [[spoiler:the poison that kills the King]], because she stays with him instead of leaving, despite knowing the price. |
| 1078 | * UnwantedRescue: You would think she would want to quit the Chimera Ant palace as soon as she had the chance, but she is fine there. She even struggled when Killua was protecting her. Justified because she didn't know [[spoiler:Pouf wanted to kill her]]. |

| 1090 | * BullyingADragon: Thought he could intimidate Meruem and the Royal Guard by boasting about his status. [[TooDumbToLive Didn’t work]]. |

| 1108 | * BetterThanSex: Considers admiring a crowd of subjects obeying and listening to you better than sex. |
| 1109 | * BigOlEyebrows: He has big, thick eyebrows darker than his hair. |
| 1110 | * ButForMeItWasTuesday: Things didn't change that much for him when the Ants took over, only that he became more overworked. He doesn't mind that much that his new overlords are [[EldritchAbomination literal monsters]], but under them he has to work under the threat of being killed. |
| 1111 | * JerkAss: Keep in mind that he ''ran a dictatorship'' before the Chimera Ants even showed up; the only difference that this brought is that he now fears being killed by them, where he was unaccountable for his actions under Jol-Ik. |
| 1112 | * KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:He's actually surprised that he got out of East Gorteau practically scot-free and in one piece. He is now considered a fugitive and a top-priority war criminal, but he is glad that he escaped and is off the grid.]] |
| 1113 | * {{Lust}}: He's a known lecher, and keeps a harem of women in the underground hangar below the palace for his desires. |
| 1114 | * TheManBehindTheMan: He was the actual official that was running the dictatorship before the Chimera Ants. Because of his extremely necessary role, the Ants are ultimately unable to get rid of him and he runs their government too. |
| 1115 | * TheScapegoat: [[spoiler: He is blamed by the international community as a war criminal after he flees East Gorteau with Hina and Welfin. Because of the tremendous burden placed on him to run the country, he's actually relieved that he became a fugitive]]. |
| 1116 | * SexSlave: The women are picked then shipped to the underground hangar below the palace to have sex with him seem terrified and not very consenting. Put two and two together with the dictatorship and [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil yeah..]]. |
| 1117 | * {{Slimeball}}: A perverted CorruptPolitician and war criminal. He's not dumb or arrogant though (like his old boss Jol-ik was) so he's pretty good about knowing when not to hold the VillainBall and avoids drawing unnecessary attention to himself. |

| 1188 | ---- |
| 1189 | * AffablyEvil: He is marked as a threat by none other than Isaac Netero, his "father". He is very charismatic and even allows himself to be captured by the Zodiacs in order to establish negotiation through dialogue. |

| 1192 | * BornLucky: [[spoiler: Those who survive a trip to the Dark Continent need incredible luck.]] |
| 1193 | * CallBack: Isaac demonstrated his incredible sense of balance by drinking from a glass on a plate he was holding up with his foot. When signing his contract for getting to keep going towards the Dark Continent under conditions dictated by the Hunter Association, Beyond displays an even more absurd feat than his father by dropping the pen onto the contract... ''where it stayed perfectly still upright on it's tip without making a mark on the page''. |
| 1194 | * DidntSeeThatComing: [[spoiler: Nobody had anticipated that he would surrender to the Zodiacs.]] |
| 1195 | * DragonWithAnAgenda: Beyond is serving as TheFace for the trip to the Dark Continent but, as he admits, he has no interest in the politics of the Kakin Dynasty. The only thing he cares about is reaching the Dark Continent and he'll work with anyone who helps his agenda. |

| 1197 | * LargeAndInCharge: He is a huge, well-built man who looks the part of a Hunter equivalent of a conqueror. |
| 1198 | * LikeFatherLikeSon: He brims with charisma, as the Zodiacs come to realize. There is just too much Isaac Netero in him for them to be able to ignore him. |
| 1199 | * MeaningfulName: The "Beyond" can be interpreted in many ways. |
| 1200 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: With Isaac Netero. |
| 1201 | * TheUnfettered: He will stop at nothing to go to the Dark Continent, even getting himself captured by the Zodiacs and being willing to subject himself to their rules and the [=G7=]'s if that's what it takes. |

| 1250 | The author of "Journey to the New World", a catalogue of the Dark Continent, and a presumed ancestor of Gon and Ging. Only the "East" edition of the book has ever been found; Ging speculates that this is either because A. the "West" edition was never written, B. it was written but never discovered, or C. it is still actively being worked on by Don. |
| 1251 | ---- |
| 1252 | * LivingLegend: Travelled through half the [[EldritchLocation Dark Continent]] '''[[BeyondTheImpossible alone]]''', lived to tell the tale via his book, and might still be alive working on the other half some 300 years later. Even by the standards of the setting's most accomplished Hunters, Don's achievements, if taken at face value, are absolutely superhuman. |
| 1253 | * Really700YearsOld: If Ging's 3rd theory is correct and he is still alive writing the book, he would be over 300 years old by now, in a series with otherwise mostly realistic lifespans. However, the very same book details several items from the Dark Continent able to either extend one's lifespan or outright provide {{Immortality}}, implying Don may have tested them himself in his travels and ended up with a superhuman lifespan. |
| 1254 | * ShroudedInMyth: Little is known about him besides being a legendary explorer whose name implies a family connection to Gon and Ging. |

| 1264 | * DueToTheDead: Not only was Sarasa given a proper funeral, her dismembered corpse was restored to the point that she looked like she's alive, thanks to the embalmer Renko. Renko used Nen to restore Sarasa's corpse, which peaked Machi's curiosity to become her student. |
| 1265 | * GenkiGirl: A sweet and energetic young girl. |
| 1266 | * TheHeart: She helped bringing the founding members of the Something Troupe together, and bullies like Phinks and Uvogin couldn't resist her cheerful kindness. Her death led almost all of them go down the path of villainy, even though they knew that's something she wouldn't have wanted. |
