The ending of Hunter x Hunter has just been revealed by its author. And no, it’s not a joke. For early fans, this is a historic moment.
Hunter x Hunter is a manga whose pre-publication began in March 1998 in the weekly magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump from publisher Shūeisha. For a long time, he was one of the titans of shōnen, standing alongside big names like Bleach, One Piece or Naruto. However, the author had health problems, and the chapters could no longer be published at a regular pace. Fans ended up saying that they would probably never see the end. Well, let them be wrong, since Yoshihiro Togashi has revealed the finale of his work.
Hunter x Hunter ending revealed
You’re not dreaming, and it’s not the 1er April, the ending of Hunter x Hunter was revealed. Indeed, during an interview the author of the manga decided to describe one of the endings he planned for his baby. If he made this difficult decision, it is because he is afraid of dying before getting to the end of it. He therefore revealed the scenario for the end D. This had normally been abandoned in favor of three other versions which were not presented. However, if he fails to finish his manga, he tells us to “consider it the true ending.” We will now describe it to you.
Togashi begins by talking about a girl named Jin who is near a lake, with a fishing rod, and is not moving. A catch seems to take the bait, and she is joyful, because she has caught the “lord of the lake”. The young woman approaches her mother and declares “ that she must become a Hunter “. Obviously, we learn from the mother that Jin’s dream is to never leave the island where she is. The father is amused, which annoys him. We then have new information: “ Why are you like this? It must be because of the blood of Grandma Mito and Grandma Noko “.
A gentle ending
The grandmothers in question are not related by blood, but the mother doesn’t seem to realize that. The father knows it, but he just smiles. The woman then adds: “ But Grandpa Gon was a famous Hunter…and this girl will one day leave the island “. Jin does not share this opinion, and the scene continues in a store where she goes to cut up fish. She seems to get excited while waiting for someone, while remembering her family members like Gon.
A shrouded child then enters the store with a plant. Jin tells him how excited he is about catching the fish. The girl talks about a person she always wanted to be with, and the boy agrees. Together, they will cook the “lord of the lake” and serve it to the village to celebrate the catch. A bird flies away at that moment, and we follow its journey. He leaves the island to go to a town before leaving again, showing the various inhabitants “who could be the grandchildren of this or that character”. In the background, an enigmatic figure watches the inhabitants go about their business. END.
