Hisoka is arguably the most complex hedonist in fiction. Functionally in a plot full of plans and counter plans he brings the chaotic wrench that can turn the tide in anyone's favour to get what he wants which could be completely irrelevant to the other big stakes at play. As one of the most fascinating things about Hisoka, to me, is how he is so much more than a character. Hisoka is a narrative instrument that exists as a fundamental thread in the fabric of Hunter X Hunter. Hisoka is, perhaps, one of the most subtle but potent examples of Togashi's writing brilliance. By making Hisoka purely hedonistic in nature with no particular goal outside of being entertained Hisoka can easily adapt to any role the story requires of him. Hisoka played an important role in Gon's party passing the hunter exam, and even gave the #44 tag that served as an impetus for some of Gon's early character development. When a powerful antagonist appears in Greed Island Hisoka gladly steps into the role of protagonist to aid the main characters on their quest. At the appearance of the story-changing Chimera Ants where Hisoka isn't deemed to be a very suitable fit for the arc's story he can easily be sent away to chase after Chrollo. When coming down from the roller coaster of the Chimera Ant arc Hisoka is more than fit to step in as an antagonist to keep the stakes high and the story entertaining as we transition into the next arc. During the ever tense Succession War arc Hisoka exists as a force of nature. An oncoming storm of chaos and death that threatens to tip the scales and cast the war into madness. Which even if Hisoka doesn't affect the Succession War arc at all, the threat of him doing so still keeps the stakes high for all of us readers. Of course I would be amiss not to at least make an honorable mention here of his changing wardrobe. To have Hisoka's attire change every arc is a clever, subtle way of visually expressing that the series is entering into a new story and theme.

god i love him so much

Is he in the phantom troupe or not I'm not far into the show but I'm guessing he is

Why would you want spoilers

I didn't like him at first. Really creepy & weird. He still is and I don't know why but I grew to love him the more I watched.


You'll enjoy the show more if you watch it blind instead of coming here. Best not to check the threads til you're done.
