    Did I miss something?

    Gon used all his Nen and was on Death's Door to kill Neferpitou.

    I thought Killia helped restored Gons Nen. (at least saved his life.)

    No? All he did was prevent him from dieing. Gon still can't use Nen, as stated by his Dad and just general knowledge.

    Ohh okay. I thought he has the ability to restore his Nen.

    Nah he doesn't have any Nen but I wouldn't be surprised if he somehow gets it back through training or something

    The issue with doing that is it makes the sacrifice less dramatic and honestly bad writing. You don't make a character accept death and sacrifice his future as a Hunter to kill someone, then they magically get it back through "training." It's possible they could find something on the Dark Continent, but that's as far as acceptable goes.

    Meh i don't know if I want to continue the manga, I mean the character are just too young for my taste. I used to like the show when I was more so around the same age as the characters but I just cannot amuse myself with it anymore. Also I feel gon never fitted in as a mc, but as you said if he is not the main character then I might see if i can enjoy it without feeling like it's for kids (i know there is lot of gore and killing but still)

    Honestly I don't see Gon being part of the dark continent arc.

    He lost his nen but Ging mentions that there is a "price to pay" to get it back.(which seems reasonable given alluka/it exist.).


    I think the reason Gon has this disability given alluka is to
    A) Show the similarities between him and chrolo when that fight comes
    B) Make sure he's not in the dark continent, because everyone would just be expecting him to go "all out" when cornered the whole time.
    (this would be terrible writing haphazard)

    Dude what. I understand everything up until greed island but everything else is pretty much as mature as you're going to get in fantasy.

    Given the Dark Continent arc is primarily consisting of adults, don't really see that either.

    So it exists but he can't release it yet? Weird, I thought it was completely gone.

    Long as it's all adults I will watch it.
    Plus compared to all the other characters gon's powers were a little forced imo.

    What do you mean forced? I'm a little lost on that.

    I'll assume the final fight with Pitou until you respond;

    That was kind of the point. Gon was so furious at losing Kite -he's alive, but not mentally alive if you will- and himself for being weak that he was prepared to kill Pitou, no matter what the consequences was.

    Except he couldn't even touch Pitou without basically DIEING.

    If anything, Netero was the pinnacle of humans. The guy was extremely old and spent years of his life throwing punches.
