He should have been the one to heal Gon instead of O MY WISH SISTER

Leorio is the main reason Kurapika even had the opportunity to work against Tse so early. He helped Mizaiston and Cheadle regarding Beyond's plan by indicating Kurapika to the Zodiacs. He was also a great device to show Gon's innocence in the Hunter Exam, maybe better than Killua at that. He was also helpful in Yorkshin so Gon and Killua could pursue Greed Island. He also had great participation in the Chairman Elections and made Gon well known with all Hunters present there.
I love Leorio. He just is the kind of character that will stop being so damn charmful if the author uses him too much.

being the only likable MC

This. Leorio's turn from stand-offish oaf to one of the core emotional pillars of the series (particularly Kurapika's arcs) was really phenomenal, and one that happens so naturally you almost don't even notice.

This

OP is a faggot

the only well adjusted human being with no tragic/fucked up backstory so far, leading him to be a very central character at helping the others around him regain their humanity

>his childhood friend dying of a preventable illness isn't a tragic backstory

>unironicaly believing its tragic
>thinking everyone above 50 years has a tragic backstory
