I just realized Kite is a gambling addict. No wonder he touched Pitou's en. He lives for the thrill of high risk/high reward. It explains the entire concept of crazy slots.
@@DeusinMachina he also conjures a gun 2 times in the chimera ant arc, it is a pistol with a barrell and stock extension that is extending from the bottom of crazy slots
1. Reina (Kite) has a rat tail that makes her an Ant 2. I believe that it said the Ant queen ate the brain, leaving the body for Pitou 3. The lack of the Krazy Slots special number ("No way I'm gonna die here") was probably some sort of supernatural indication to him that he was going to be okay in some way
The ant Queen stated that Meruem came out too soon. Imagine it was because kite actually took part of the energy that was for him and Meruem felt a threat, that if he waited, he couldn't become the king that he wanted to be.
In the wild, animals (for example; Panda Bear's) will reject one of the newborns if they birth twins & don't have the means/energy resource to care for both. The rejected twin is likely to die. This is a version of survival of the fittest, like when Shark's eat each other while still in their mother's womb before birth, only the strongest one survives, giving the species only the strongest/most fit newborns to succeed their predecessors and successfully evolve the species over time. This is important for evolution as the traits of the weaker newborns won't be passed on to the next generation, increasing the likelihood for the species to thrive in the future, as only the traits of the strong are inherited, eventually creating a better version of the species over time (evolution). Kite only survived because of Colt's intervention, if Meruem found Kite after his birth , she most likely would've been finished off/devoured, as he was devouring her the entire time in the Queen's womb. Kite has now lived beyond Mureum, so she is the new Ant King. Maybe Kite's new nen ability will be essential to commanding other ants if they don't have that natural intuition to follow her already and recognize her as the king. I suspect her to play a big role in defending against Paris's ant invasion if HunterXHunter ever continues. If Paris's ant's see Kite and their instincts make them realize that she's the King, not Paris, they will turn against Paris most likely, and now Kite will have control of this ant army, allying with Gon and Killua against any potential threats, like in the dark continent. It's important to note that Ant's are classified B level threats by humans so they likely aren't top of the food chain in the massive dark continent, they likely have natural predators who pose a threat to them. The strongest human alive stood no chance of defeating the King of a B level threat, makes you wonder why humans even bother with the dark continent, this should be a hint they need to become stronger rather than foolishly rush in like Netero warned about when he was alive.
I always thought that Kite was actually being kind to Koala in that scene. He saw that guilt would eat him alive and torture him forever without ever really getting any closure, so Kite said “serve your penance with me” and gave him a purpose. When you’re suffering from guilt, forgiveness feels undeserved and can make you feel worse. Being told you have to do something difficult to make up for it, even if it’s harsh, can be more digestible and Kite is the only one who can really do that for Koala. I mean now instead of wandering the world dwelling on a dark past, Koala is part of a team and has a sense of duty. In an episode about atonement and following a discussion of souls, I think Kite was saving his.
A nice theory about why #3 was a “good roll” is that he hates killing things. Like how he saved gon as a kid by killing the animal, he hated it. Every other number we’ve seen, it’s been made to kill. The gun. The scythe. They’re “bad rolls” because he’s going to kill his opponent, while #3 is not made to do that, hence the “good roll”
@Dwight Miller 2 and 3/4 years is alot of personal time. I understand his health issues, but at this stage he should drop his ego about drawing and really just hire an assistant to draw for him. Art was never his strongest aspect anyway. But honestly, at this stage Togashi has probably lost motivation to continue the manga in general...
I'm inclined to believe that Kite got Royal CA DNA and then some. As you say, we see her mature extremely fast, and as a child she had some traits showing that she wasn't 100% human. So current Kite either hides her traits really well or those traits only surface as a transformation (like Zazan's second transformation for example). What I find fascinating about Kite, is that you see kid Kite play with a toy sword with much intent. This not only makes me believe that Kite has all the memory of their previous life (specifically, the knowledge of weapons that likely led to the creation of crazy slots), but also has all the requirements to make a stronger Crazy Slots. As you say, considering he already was a Conjurer Kite might currently be like Pitou, but that entirely depends on the experience Kite needs to add up, despite the innate talent of a royal CA. What I currently want for Kite, is to have that Pitou type of deal, and to team up with Palm's group and interfere with whatever Pariston is planning to do with the humans that got turned into CA.
I don't think he will become a specialist because when a person gets born with a nen type that matches their personality but since kite was born again but with a another body however he still got the same personality so i think he still got his old nen ability or maybe I am wrong and he gets new nen abilities.
@@yomo6624 Well, considering that conjurers and manipulators have better chances of becoming specialists than everyone else, it's not strange to think that Kite could have a similar situation as Pitou, who is actually a manipulator.

Becoming an anime girl is a strict upgrade though. Internally, we debate it this should be rolled out as default for all future anime character releases.
I'd like to point out that the blonde chick from Leol's squad also can't be distinguished from a human appearance wise,and she was definitely a Chimera Ant. So I think Kite definitely is an Ant right now.
I'm pretty sure his #3 roll is some kind of luck manipulation. The end of the mace is shaped like a clover, which is a symbol of luck, and he doesn't call it a bad roll. Plus, he has a hatsu based on luck in the first place. And it would make sense to have an ability that can turn the tides in his favor if he's backed into a corner, since a direct reincarnation hatsu would be a bit of a cop-out for post-mortem nen and defeat the purpose of sacrificing your life (Hisoka's case is a little different because he was just ordering his nen to carry out the physical motions of reviving him rather than making his soul reincarnate, and it could've easily failed if his body was too damaged). And you say that no part of Kite was eaten, but we don't actually see his brain (notably the tastiest part of a human and a part that a puppet wouldn't need). And he's covered in scars from being used as a training dummy, so some of his blood getting splattered on one of the queen's meatballs by random chance and that bit of blood being enough to bring him back by random chance wouldn't be out of the question. It would just be extremely lucky.
Have you read new arc? Second prince there have more wild post mortem nen ability.. With second prince and her army that ready to curse every other prince after their death, hisoka comeback alive to fight spider+illumi and 10th prince post mortem nen beast on the ship i believe these arc would focus on introducing/explaining more about post mortem type of nen ability that probably would play key role to survive on DC
@@edi6722 it seems so, but I've never thought about it. It would be logical, though, but such a cheap detail that it doesn't mean that much. Not that we will see any ending of this story, anyway 🤷♂️
I thought koala was going to kill himself and thats why kite made him serve him. Kite siad he’ll work him so hard he won’t have to think about it and later koala thanked him for stopping him from taking the ez way out. So kite just did it to save koala
I think it was to save him, to not allow him the easy way out as you said, hoping to give him redemption. Likely when Koala was explaining himself, Kite saw the soul, and since he's also a Chimera Ant now, it's much easier to sympathise with him. So basically, Kite's a good guy.
It would make sense that Kite had a tail, it’s probably hidden inside their pants. Like in some shows they hide it behind their legs inside their close. Kite’s tail is that of a rat, which I think is a reference to the thing that killed him being a Cat looking creature. Kite might grow ears later on, since Pitou kind of looked human if you forget about it’s hands and just pay attention to Pitou looking like a Neko girl
10:21 Nen is extremely personality specific. Kurapika is the most on the nose example of this because his nen is directly tied to one specific goal. And if the mind and personality of the user had less impact, Kurapika couldn't use his powers against the inevitable resurgence of other spiders if it was a predetermined genetic outcome that he would have his chains and emperor abilities. Especially considering the troupe is a faction dedicated in shifting political climates and goals. Nen is will itself with a spice of personality
Kite isn't the only human looking chimera ant, there was that nen exorcist girl that looked human, then also pouf looks human as well. They all have little things like kite has a rats tail, pouf has a butterflies wings, and that one exorcist had something on her head, but they all are human looking. Did you not see kites tail
Palm ended up part-Ant and is obviously "part" but is also obviously more human, and it's even mentioned they are more like an early experiment as opposed to what was going to be done. Which can get complicated because Mereum may have ended up being more merciful than the total monster that was destroyed by Netero taking such extreme action, but it doesn't change how Pitou came out or how some just look way more human than others.
Kite demanding the koala to live a life serving "the person he killed", even though he's not actually that person, is for the sake of the koala. Koala man was filled with regret for what he did, and grief that his life will never change no matter what actions he chooses to make. He will always either think he's doing "the right thing" or overlook the immorality of his choices due to convincing himself it doesn't really matter. Or in this case, taking the easy route without even considering the more difficult but morally better route. When "saving" the redhead girl, he didn't think twice for a better solution to actually save her. He simply thought I'll be killed if I defend her, and she will be tortured if I don't. Therefore the only option is to give her a quick death. Afterwards he regrets this decision because he wanted to actually save her and didn't even consider it a possibility. Continuing his cycle of decisions he later regrets. Kite gives him an out to this cycle. Live your life in service of the person you wished to save. Even if its not actually them, that's not actually the point. He's breaking this cycle for the sake of the girl he wanted to save. He's already killed her, he can't change that. But he can break his cycle and dedicate himself to servicing others as a way to say "I'm sorry for not protecting you, I'll never make a bad decision like this again."
@Amanda 24 y.o - check my vidéó, if you would allow me to clarify: When the Extermination team recovers “Kite,” it’s JUST his human body. But in order for Kite to be reincarnated as a Chimera Ant, the Queen must’ve ate SOMETHING from him. So I assumed that Pitou fed the Queen Kite’s brain (which is apparently the most delicious and nutritious part of a Nen User’s body) and then used their ability (the puppet doctor thing) to put Kite’s body back together so Pitou could keep fighting it over and over. So I’m saying that I assumed there are TWO Kites: His lifeless body, being controlled by Pitou’s Nen ability (the puppeteer), and the new Kite that is a Chimera Ant and The King’s twin sister.
It was never confirmed that no part of his original body was consumed by the queen. One popular theory is that Pitou with her surgery abilities only kept his "Shell" (skin, muscles and bones) and feed everything else to the queen. His marionet body being full of cuts supports that theory.
@@nenmaster5218 Not only his head on her lap his body was full of cuts and stitches... Its almost certain that she would have needed to disemboweling his body to prevent it from rotting. Throwing it away would be a complete waste of high nourishing food for the queen so its very likely she gave it to her. Nothing is confirmed and probably never will but its much easier to believe that she did it due to how important nourishing the queen for a powerful king was to them.
NEN-QUESTION: So how i understood it, conjuring a Dimension is just strategically Best IF your not after Combat-Strength, yes? You can make it more and more cozy by bringing-in things from the real word. You can even made much Money out of it, just by being clever at making Basic Decisions about your Dimension AND you make it have the Attribute of expanding endlessly each time you become stronger and/or put more Aura into it. It only makes sense to me that the Floor being made of Gold or Silver cost the same amount of Effort to conjure IF it’s the exact same Weight. Why would the Rules of Nen care?! There is no objective Prize of things, all prizes and values are man-made and made-up. So i really think it’s unlogical to think a Dimension with the Attribute of being made of Stone cares what kind of Stone it is: And this of course includes Quartz and Graphine and all such.
9:23 “That’s the brutality of Hunter x Hunter. If you make one mistake, no matter who you are, you’re done.” Sums it up well and is why I love this series. Too bad it’s practically discontinued
I dint think the queen births another queen. I think if she survived than she would've had another king. I Think they say that that the kings eventually go and mate with females of other species to restart the cycle. Not 100% sure tho
@@boneless9311 The Chimera Ants Squadron Leaders mentioned that with their Queen dead, they no longer need to follow The Chimera Ant's hierarchy. All the are free to do whatever they please, and since each of the Chimera Ants have an unique reproduction system of their own, I'd say that the question here might be whether each Squadron Leader would want to be their own king/queen and start their own empire?

The fact that Palm became physically more capable. And taking in the fact that she wasn't a combatant type person to begin with. Imagine a Chimera ant body in the hands of someone who was and now has the benefits of post mordem nen.
As much as I would love to see Kite come back more powerful than ever, I can’t help but feel that he might’ve had to set a nen condition similar to Gon’s in order to reincarnate. That being that he can’t use nen anymore. But I’m still hopeful!
I belive his power is extreme luck. When he gets the third slot he knows he will live but not how. Thats how Ging knew about it, He might have used it in a situation where the third slot saved him through getting an ally. Its impossible for him to know how he is gonna survive the fight but he will. It's ability to survive might also be the weakness, like if he got paralyzed, he would still be alive in a unmoving body. Or in a situation where death would have been better off than the way he survived thanks to the third slot.
Btw i know that im a year late but im just letting ya know that gon doesnt lost his nen because nen is "life force" so if he loses it he will be 6ft below the ground but hes still alive meaning he still has nen and also ging said that gon just doesnt see his nen so maybe if he awaken his nen again we can see more punching action from our little green speedy boi
Ging says that Crazy Slots will throw out a specific number whenever Kite "...really doesn't want to die." That could suggest that Crazy Slots might not be as random as we're lead to believe. It could be that getting a "good number" in the mace is because Kite is relatively skilled with that weapon, but he doesn't see Pitou as THAT much of a threat to get the best number. I also think that the best number would've been a sword, since we see Ant Kite using one with incredible skill. At least that's how I see it.
What i loved in Hunter Hunter is the mysteries of each ones abilities. You really do feel a since of tension if you fought an unknown opponent. He/she may look like funny weak until he activated his nen. Even if you are top hunter you cannot just take your gaurd down in this Hunter World.
Chimera ant arch really is one of the best anime archs of all time. Kite immediately knew he was going to die. I always wondered if he still has crazy slots aswell or like u said, the post mortem ability is kinda like parasitic in a way. His soul like snatched on to that corpse and even after being.... digested it like still reincarnated separately has to do with the ability. Its super insane if Kite still has crazy slots because maybe he is just immortal? Who knows.
On top of the fact that he’s exponentially stronger than he ever was, he’s also started an entire new life with the knowledge and experience he had amassed!! This shouldn’t be belittled, it’s almost equivalent to saying he’ll have the combat iQ of 2 lifetimes ! Although, 1.5 life’s might be more accurate, assuming Kite was around his mid 30s or so.
Could you imagine a Kite spin-off. That would be so cool. Who knows, maybe the white-haired Kite was a reincarnated Kite already, maybe he was already an ancient samurai warrior of the past, who already reincarnated many many times. 😄
I don't think Kite's ability is actually random so much as it is ironic, the clown will always give him what he needs to deal with the situation but with a conditional ironic downside, like when he had to tell Killua and Gon to jump when he rolled his scythe. Perfect for killing large groups, but it kills indiscriminately in 360 degree area, bad for fighting with allies. Theres also getting a rifle to shoot ants off Killua's knee or to fight a close combat enemy. The 3 roll was a nen after death contract, I think when it comes up he has to die because it leaves him without a weapon, but that sheer will power to accept your death is enough to transfer his nen to a new body like a mix of two of princes powers, the 9 lives cat construct and the body switching arrows. Just imagine making an ability like that on a RNG spin, it's basically Russian roulette but you get to start NG+ on life.
the writing of kites character is such a evil way of trolling. writes badass fan favorite character. shows 3 of 9 of his abilities. uses him just to show how strong the chimera ant royal guards are and kills him off. then brings him back as a completely different character. top 5 biggest trolls by manga artist.
I think you misunderstood Kite's intention with keeping Koala as a slave. The context of the conversation was that Koala wanted to end his own life and take the easy way out, but Kite was urging him to cling to life by giving this practical pretense of being a slave. In truth, Kite is a kind character who despite having been killed once by an Ant, is willing to forgive and work with an Ant.
Even with the ended to hxh being in the "unknown" category.... I've always wondered why they didn't just make a version starting for new Kites life then going into how crazy slots stayed with her then showing all of them... YES THIS IS ONLY FOR ME TO SEE ALL CRAZY SLOTS... Yet still a great idea to keep the story alive and by building onto the lore already there capatilizing on the fan base and WANT for a continuation
When i first watched those episodes in the anime, the first thing that came to mind was that the 3rd weapon is actually not a reincarnation thing or anything, it was probably just a strong weapon and the reincarnation thing was probably an another ability that probably has a connection w revenge like 'getting reincarnated to the bloodline of the person that killed you, with better resolution, you get to get reincarnated to the baby w the most talent' or like yk?
I like to imagine that since kite was born along side the king Meruem that maybe this Kite has the mental potential as Meruem where she can learn things really fast beyond normal human comprehension and an even massive aura reserve because being mixed with ant and possibly nen after death. That's my wishful thinking anyway
Kite seems like the perfect compliment to a restored Gon and Killua. They're arguably the two greatest geniuses of their generation, who still need a bit of guidance, and Hunter x Hunter has always been very, very lacking in female characters of importance. I could see a Gon/Killua/Kite trio braving the Dark Continent if Togashi could ever progress in the series. Or Kite just showing up there to meet up with Ging.
Kid-Kite had a rat tail that I only just noticed thanks to the comments. But it makes an interesting parallel with Pitou. They've got a cat and mouse relationship.
I wonder if this is the first time Kite has gone through this process. It would be weird to have a nen ability that you never experienced to know you have an ace like that up your sleeve.
When does kite call crazy slots 3 a “good number”? I looked back in the manga when he pulled that number and all he says is he has to buy gon and killua time
Can you do a video on what the hunter associations plan B would be after finding out mereum beat netero? Knuckle mentioned it before he got captured by Mereuem.
What could happen is, Kite becomes an adult, becomes as strong as the Ant King but also has his Nen expertise. And then he ends up in a battle versus Beyond Netero. Basically giving us a glimpse into what could have been, if Netero would have been in his prime & Meruem would have had more time to learn about Nen. Probably won't happen, but would be cool.
Ok, so the analogy of he poked a beehive makes so much sense when it's concerning Kite. Especially knowing his background with Ging, the following "he fucked up, he fucked up really bad" he is the kind of guy that pokes stuff with a stick and then goes "oh shit" when the thing he poked turns out to be something bad
Don't be hard on Ging, being one of the best gives you the highest expectations for your son. Aaaand than he is a foolish enhancer that gambled his Nen and nearly his life...
Nen is a wonder. The stars aligned for Kite. I think that was ALWAYS his destiny. To be reborn into something far greater than he previously was. Kites relevance and relationship to Ging. Pitous En. Crazy Slot #3. The timing of Koala killing his vessel at that particular moment, any sooner or later the outcome would have been drastically different. Koalas presence and his decision specifically. Being Meruems twin. Colt being present. And the queen having given birth again before she died.
So listen…if you lose the mini games you have to subscribe, but I have won like every single one. I think my pseudo trivia victories should be rewarded
Thanks for this video. Very well done. Although, I was a bit surprised that there was only one moment, when you came close to acknowledging that, Kite now has a mouse/rat tail.
Ya know how the queen was dead so the other ants left to become their own queen's? I could see pito experimenting trying it out herself maybe ... maybe
Thank you for talking mor and elaborating on this. Like the singular episode/ few manga chapters that actually cover new Kite and then just no reference to it again made me feel like I was getting gaslit by Togashi that the entire scenario wasn’t completely bonkers
In the toddler form kite was shown with a very thin tail. I would assume it’s tucked into the jump suit in child form. I guess that’s legitimizes her being an “ant”. God I hope HxH comes back
I have a theory: to be king maybe Meruem needed to be mostly (like 99%) ant and what was left was the bulk of human DNA he didn't use, enter the twin sister, now the new Kite.
honestly feel he should've stayed dead as i always had problems with the reincarnation concept(especially for some characters even if there's justification.),it makes gon's near death/loss of nen along with the angst during it kinda pointless(though still feel gon vs. pitou had much more to it past that.) and let's be honest it's highly unlikely we'll see him again with how the series is going(and personally would've reworked the arc in a few areas as while i like kite's mentor angle with gon i didn't feel that attached to him even reading the manga but felt his impact nonetheless.).
It actually makes sense. Because Pitou wanted to restore Kite to "play" with him again, because she enjoyed it so much. That's how she created her Dr. Blythe ability. But Kite's soul had left his body already, to be reborn. That makes Gon's tantrum with Pitou even worse, because Pitou really wanted to restore Kite from the beginning, she just can't.
It was revealed in the Exhibition: Togashi Yoshihiro Puzzle (that was held in Tokyo from October 28,2022 to January 9,2023) in the Nen Chart about the characters Nen types,that,just like Gon,Kite lost his Nen,certainly after the reincarnation,probably because her aura nodes are now closed in her new body But I think she could just learn again how to use aura,and probably her Nen ability could come back automatically,but for now,Crazy Slots is gone
I thought so too at first, but wouldn't it make more sense that they got very little power, since the goal was to make a singular overwhelmingly powerful being.

I like the way you form your opinions and ways to elevate the thinking of where things have more meaning in broader context. Dope videos bro this is by far the smartest shit I’ve ever said in context to anime.
It would’ve made more sense if gon was the one who poked the bear but alas it’s still a masterpiece. Also I call kites #3 “mace” a baby rattle b/c that’s what it reminded me of and it helps with the baby. Edit: I thought the Queen Ant chooses the genes it wishes to pass down after eating/collecting them.
I'm not sure but I remember pitou saying that kites body was halfly given to the queen While the other half was used or the flesh and DNA was used to for the puppet kite Since pitou has the ability to regenerate/knit/create flesh So possibly she created a replica of kites body While the soul and the other half was putted to the queen's digestion? Idk just a theory oof
Kite couldn't use that secret ability because A. He cant choose what comes out and B. Once crazy slotz lands on a number he cannot reroll until he is out of combat so unless 3 was that magic number he was simply brought back via part of him being eaten by the queen and his mostly human appearance was most likely due to meruem taking most of the nutrients just like what sometimes happens with twins in humans thats why he was so tiny in birth
I thought this with the lack of Kite being eaten, but you see Pitou suggest to Meruem that the brain is the tastiest part, What if Kites Brain was fed to the Queen as it would have been great for her growth of the king, and then the body was kept for Pitou to play with it?
Honestly I think my favorite part about Kite was when he said that he got a bad spin and then Killua would say “then why did you choose that ability…?” I really miss him, he was my favorite character. So sad he died so soon:(
Btw kite is my favorite! So excited to see her boosted aura. I think totally graduated to a specialist. Personally I think you can classify any super versatile nen user a specialist as long as they maintain the nen quantity and memory to use all they know.
Hunter x Hunter's "casual" view of the soul actually looks very stoic: Marcus Aurelius - 'You are a little soul carrying about a corpse, as Epictetus used to say.'
Idk if anyone has had this theory or whatever I'm about to say, but I've always believed that if you lose your nen ability whether through a nen contract (Gon) or as a part of your ability ( kites number 3 spin), then you can come back as a specialist that wields every category except your original affinity. Ging stated to gon that if he wanted his nen back then he was gona have to work harder at reactivating his nen. I also believe that if we ever see more of kite, It will be with gon and the two of them training side by side to unlock new abilities to replace the ones that were taken from them as a result of their battle with the same enemy.
I just realized Kite is a gambling addict. No wonder he touched Pitou's en. He lives for the thrill of high risk/high reward. It explains the entire concept of crazy slots.

"humans do not have rat tails" I don't know, I saw a lot of people with rat tails in the 90s.
@@aneonfoxtribute both
1. Reina (Kite) has a rat tail that makes her an Ant
2. I believe that it said the Ant queen ate the brain, leaving the body for Pitou
3. The lack of the Krazy Slots special number ("No way I'm gonna die here") was probably some sort of supernatural indication to him that he was going to be okay in some way
💯
So according to this, Kite didn't use his Krazy Slots for reincarnating?

The ant Queen stated that Meruem came out too soon. Imagine it was because kite actually took part of the energy that was for him and Meruem felt a threat, that if he waited, he couldn't become the king that he wanted to be.
good theory
amazing
In the wild, animals (for example; Panda Bear's) will reject one of the newborns if they birth twins & don't have the means/energy resource to care for both. The rejected twin is likely to die. This is a version of survival of the fittest, like when Shark's eat each other while still in their mother's womb before birth, only the strongest one survives, giving the species only the strongest/most fit newborns to succeed their predecessors and successfully evolve the species over time. This is important for evolution as the traits of the weaker newborns won't be passed on to the next generation, increasing the likelihood for the species to thrive in the future, as only the traits of the strong are inherited, eventually creating a better version of the species over time (evolution). Kite only survived because of Colt's intervention, if Meruem found Kite after his birth , she most likely would've been finished off/devoured, as he was devouring her the entire time in the Queen's womb. Kite has now lived beyond Mureum, so she is the new Ant King. Maybe Kite's new nen ability will be essential to commanding other ants if they don't have that natural intuition to follow her already and recognize her as the king. I suspect her to play a big role in defending against Paris's ant invasion if HunterXHunter ever continues. If Paris's ant's see Kite and their instincts make them realize that she's the King, not Paris, they will turn against Paris most likely, and now Kite will have control of this ant army, allying with Gon and Killua against any potential threats, like in the dark continent. It's important to note that Ant's are classified B level threats by humans so they likely aren't top of the food chain in the massive dark continent, they likely have natural predators who pose a threat to them. The strongest human alive stood no chance of defeating the King of a B level threat, makes you wonder why humans even bother with the dark continent, this should be a hint they need to become stronger rather than foolishly rush in like Netero warned about when he was alive.
Nah he just got out because he was ready, he would have at least mentioned that once if it was true
@@Ihaaab Meruem was premature. It’s canon.
I always thought that Kite was actually being kind to Koala in that scene. He saw that guilt would eat him alive and torture him forever without ever really getting any closure, so Kite said “serve your penance with me” and gave him a purpose. When you’re suffering from guilt, forgiveness feels undeserved and can make you feel worse. Being told you have to do something difficult to make up for it, even if it’s harsh, can be more digestible and Kite is the only one who can really do that for Koala.
I mean now instead of wandering the world dwelling on a dark past, Koala is part of a team and has a sense of duty. In an episode about atonement and following a discussion of souls, I think Kite was saving his.

A nice theory about why #3 was a “good roll” is that he hates killing things. Like how he saved gon as a kid by killing the animal, he hated it. Every other number we’ve seen, it’s been made to kill. The gun. The scythe. They’re “bad rolls” because he’s going to kill his opponent, while #3 is not made to do that, hence the “good roll”

I'm inclined to believe that Kite got Royal CA DNA and then some. As you say, we see her mature extremely fast, and as a child she had some traits showing that she wasn't 100% human. So current Kite either hides her traits really well or those traits only surface as a transformation (like Zazan's second transformation for example).
What I find fascinating about Kite, is that you see kid Kite play with a toy sword with much intent. This not only makes me believe that Kite has all the memory of their previous life (specifically, the knowledge of weapons that likely led to the creation of crazy slots), but also has all the requirements to make a stronger Crazy Slots. As you say, considering he already was a Conjurer Kite might currently be like Pitou, but that entirely depends on the experience Kite needs to add up, despite the innate talent of a royal CA.
What I currently want for Kite, is to have that Pitou type of deal, and to team up with Palm's group and interfere with whatever Pariston is planning to do with the humans that got turned into CA.
Thank you for proper punctuation. Makes it so much easier to read.
I don't think he will become a specialist because when a person gets born with a nen type that matches their personality but since kite was born again but with a another body however he still got the same personality so i think he still got his old nen ability or maybe I am wrong and he gets new nen abilities.
@@yomo6624 Well, considering that conjurers and manipulators have better chances of becoming specialists than everyone else, it's not strange to think that Kite could have a similar situation as Pitou, who is actually a manipulator.

Kite's true sacrifice for becoming potentially the most powerful nen user in Hunter x Hunter was to lose the coolest character design in the series.

Becoming an anime girl is a strict upgrade though. Internally, we debate it this should be rolled out as default for all future anime character releases.
I'd like to point out that the blonde chick from Leol's squad also can't be distinguished from a human appearance wise,and she was definitely a Chimera Ant.
So I think Kite definitely is an Ant right now.

Bad Roll: Bad for enemy
Good Roll: Good for Kite
I'm pretty sure his #3 roll is some kind of luck manipulation.
The end of the mace is shaped like a clover, which is a symbol of luck, and he doesn't call it a bad roll. Plus, he has a hatsu based on luck in the first place.
And it would make sense to have an ability that can turn the tides in his favor if he's backed into a corner, since a direct reincarnation hatsu would be a bit of a cop-out for post-mortem nen and defeat the purpose of sacrificing your life (Hisoka's case is a little different because he was just ordering his nen to carry out the physical motions of reviving him rather than making his soul reincarnate, and it could've easily failed if his body was too damaged).
And you say that no part of Kite was eaten, but we don't actually see his brain (notably the tastiest part of a human and a part that a puppet wouldn't need). And he's covered in scars from being used as a training dummy, so some of his blood getting splattered on one of the queen's meatballs by random chance and that bit of blood being enough to bring him back by random chance wouldn't be out of the question. It would just be extremely lucky.

I thought koala was going to kill himself and thats why kite made him serve him. Kite siad he’ll work him so hard he won’t have to think about it and later koala thanked him for stopping him from taking the ez way out. So kite just did it to save koala
Yes, he gave him a reason to live so that he doesn't end himself
I think it was to save him, to not allow him the easy way out as you said, hoping to give him redemption. Likely when Koala was explaining himself, Kite saw the soul, and since he's also a Chimera Ant now, it's much easier to sympathise with him. So basically, Kite's a good guy.
I bet Kite has the hidden ability of gliding through the air with a kite
Im gonna pissed if he dont
Might be 1 of his spins actually
It would make sense that Kite had a tail, it’s probably hidden inside their pants. Like in some shows they hide it behind their legs inside their close.
Kite’s tail is that of a rat, which I think is a reference to the thing that killed him being a Cat looking creature. Kite might grow ears later on, since Pitou kind of looked human if you forget about it’s hands and just pay attention to Pitou looking like a Neko girl

Nen is extremely personality specific. Kurapika is the most on the nose example of this because his nen is directly tied to one specific goal. And if the mind and personality of the user had less impact, Kurapika couldn't use his powers against the inevitable resurgence of other spiders if it was a predetermined genetic outcome that he would have his chains and emperor abilities. Especially considering the troupe is a faction dedicated in shifting political climates and goals.
Nen is will itself with a spice of personality
Kite isn't the only human looking chimera ant, there was that nen exorcist girl that looked human, then also pouf looks human as well.

Palm ended up part-Ant and is obviously "part" but is also obviously more human, and it's even mentioned they are more like an early experiment as opposed to what was going to be done. Which can get complicated because Mereum may have ended up being more merciful than the total monster that was destroyed by Netero taking such extreme action, but it doesn't change how Pitou came out or how some just look way more human than others.
Kite demanding the koala to live a life serving "the person he killed", even though he's not actually that person, is for the sake of the koala. Koala man was filled with regret for what he did, and grief that his life will never change no matter what actions he chooses to make. He will always either think he's doing "the right thing" or overlook the immorality of his choices due to convincing himself it doesn't really matter. Or in this case, taking the easy route without even considering the more difficult but morally better route.
When "saving" the redhead girl, he didn't think twice for a better solution to actually save her. He simply thought I'll be killed if I defend her, and she will be tortured if I don't. Therefore the only option is to give her a quick death. Afterwards he regrets this decision because he wanted to actually save her and didn't even consider it a possibility. Continuing his cycle of decisions he later regrets.
Kite gives him an out to this cycle. Live your life in service of the person you wished to save. Even if its not actually them, that's not actually the point. He's breaking this cycle for the sake of the girl he wanted to save. He's already killed her, he can't change that. But he can break his cycle and dedicate himself to servicing others as a way to say "I'm sorry for not protecting you, I'll never make a bad decision like this again."
I also got a feeling that the koala was there to settle his affairs before killing himself. He was definetly in a dark place.
I was always under the impression that Pitou fed Kite’s brain to the Ant Queen before fixing up his body with their abilities/freaky science.
@Amanda 24 y.o - check my vidéó, if you would allow me to clarify: When the Extermination team recovers “Kite,” it’s JUST his human body. But in order for Kite to be reincarnated as a Chimera Ant, the Queen must’ve ate SOMETHING from him. So I assumed that Pitou fed the Queen Kite’s brain (which is apparently the most delicious and nutritious part of a Nen User’s body) and then used their ability (the puppet doctor thing) to put Kite’s body back together so Pitou could keep fighting it over and over.
So I’m saying that I assumed there are TWO Kites: His lifeless body, being controlled by Pitou’s Nen ability (the puppeteer), and the new Kite that is a Chimera Ant and The King’s twin sister.
It was never confirmed that no part of his original body was consumed by the queen.
One popular theory is that Pitou with her surgery abilities only kept his "Shell" (skin, muscles and bones) and feed everything else to the queen.
His marionet body being full of cuts supports that theory.
Thats random speculation, so it's absolutely fine to say 'He was never consumed cause we SEE his BODY'.
@@nenmaster5218 Not only his head on her lap his body was full of cuts and stitches...
Its almost certain that she would have needed to disemboweling his body to prevent it from rotting.
Throwing it away would be a complete waste of high nourishing food for the queen so its very likely she gave it to her.
Nothing is confirmed and probably never will but its much easier to believe that she did it due to how important nourishing the queen for a powerful king was to them.
Child Kite had a tail (10:52), so yes he (or would it be she now?) is a chimera ant.
NEN-QUESTION:
So how i understood it, conjuring a Dimension is just strategically Best IF your not after Combat-Strength, yes?
You can make it more and more cozy by bringing-in things from the real word.
You can even made much Money out of it, just by being clever at making Basic Decisions about your Dimension AND you make it have the Attribute of expanding endlessly each time you become stronger and/or put more Aura into it.
It only makes sense to me that the Floor being made of Gold or Silver cost the same amount of Effort to conjure IF it’s the exact same Weight.
Why would the Rules of Nen care?!
There is no objective Prize of things, all prizes and values are man-made and made-up.
So i really think it’s unlogical to think a Dimension with the Attribute of being made of Stone cares what kind of Stone it is: And this of course includes Quartz and Graphine and all such.

If Kite was reborn at the same time as Merurem, and reborn as a female, would that make her the new chimera ant queen?

I belive his power is extreme luck.
When he gets the third slot he knows he will live but not how. Thats how Ging knew about it,
He might have used it in a situation where the third slot saved him through getting an ally.
Its impossible for him to know how he is gonna survive the fight but he will.
It's ability to survive might also be the weakness, like if he got paralyzed, he would still be alive in a unmoving body.
Or in a situation where death would have been better off than the way he survived thanks to the third slot.

I also think that the best number would've been a sword, since we see Ant Kite using one with incredible skill. At least that's how I see it.

Chimera ant arch really is one of the best anime archs of all time. Kite immediately knew he was going to die.

Kite: bad spin (ー`´ー)
imagine him randomly rolling and getting a 3 in a easy fight. forcing himself to die to get rid of it
On top of the fact that he’s exponentially stronger than he ever was, he’s also started an entire new life with the knowledge and experience he had amassed!! This shouldn’t be belittled, it’s almost equivalent to saying he’ll have the combat iQ of 2 lifetimes ! Although, 1.5 life’s might be more accurate, assuming Kite was around his mid 30s or so.
Could you imagine a Kite spin-off. That would be so cool. Who knows, maybe the white-haired Kite was a reincarnated Kite already, maybe he was already an ancient samurai warrior of the past, who already reincarnated many many times. 😄
I don't think Kite's ability is actually random so much as it is ironic, the clown will always give him what he needs to deal with the situation but with a conditional ironic downside, like when he had to tell Killua and Gon to jump when he rolled his scythe. Perfect for killing large groups, but it kills indiscriminately in 360 degree area, bad for fighting with allies. Theres also getting a rifle to shoot ants off Killua's knee or to fight a close combat enemy. The 3 roll was a nen after death contract, I think when it comes up he has to die because it leaves him without a weapon, but that sheer will power to accept your death is enough to transfer his nen to a new body like a mix of two of princes powers, the 9 lives cat construct and the body switching arrows. Just imagine making an ability like that on a RNG spin, it's basically Russian roulette but you get to start NG+ on life.
the writing of kites character is such a evil way of trolling. writes badass fan favorite character. shows 3 of 9 of his abilities. uses him just to show how strong the chimera ant royal guards are and kills him off. then brings him back as a completely different character. top 5 biggest trolls by manga artist.
I think you misunderstood Kite's intention with keeping Koala as a slave. The context of the conversation was that Koala wanted to end his own life and take the easy way out, but Kite was urging him to cling to life by giving this practical pretense of being a slave. In truth, Kite is a kind character who despite having been killed once by an Ant, is willing to forgive and work with an Ant.
The new nen ability is Crazy Slots, but now they’re all good spins. Overpowered
but they all would have to be equal unless...
Even with the ended to hxh being in the "unknown" category.... I've always wondered why they didn't just make a version starting for new Kites life then going into how crazy slots stayed with her then showing all of them...
YES THIS IS ONLY FOR ME TO SEE ALL CRAZY SLOTS... Yet still a great idea to keep the story alive and by building onto the lore already there capatilizing on the fan base and WANT for a continuation
When i first watched those episodes in the anime, the first thing that came to mind was that the 3rd weapon is actually not a reincarnation thing or anything, it was probably just a strong weapon and the reincarnation thing was probably an another ability that probably has a connection w revenge like 'getting reincarnated to the bloodline of the person that killed you, with better resolution, you get to get reincarnated to the baby w the most talent' or like yk?
I like to imagine that since kite was born along side the king Meruem that maybe this Kite has the mental potential as Meruem where she can learn things really fast beyond normal human comprehension and an even massive aura reserve because being mixed with ant and possibly nen after death. That's my wishful thinking anyway
Hisoka has also used his new nen abilities to bring himself back to life
Kite seems like the perfect compliment to a restored Gon and Killua. They're arguably the two greatest geniuses of their generation, who still need a bit of guidance, and Hunter x Hunter has always been very, very lacking in female characters of importance. I could see a Gon/Killua/Kite trio braving the Dark Continent if Togashi could ever progress in the series. Or Kite just showing up there to meet up with Ging.
Talking about Nen is always hype.

I'd assume it was to literally nuke the country.
@@chrisj403 or call beyond netero
What could happen is, Kite becomes an adult, becomes as strong as the Ant King but also has his Nen expertise. And then he ends up in a battle versus Beyond Netero.
Basically giving us a glimpse into what could have been, if Netero would have been in his prime & Meruem would have had more time to learn about Nen.
Probably won't happen, but would be cool.
I believe it's said in the story that she removed his insides and fed them to the queen. But I could be wrong
I think you’re right.
Ok, so the analogy of he poked a beehive makes so much sense when it's concerning Kite. Especially knowing his background with Ging, the following "he fucked up, he fucked up really bad" he is the kind of guy that pokes stuff with a stick and then goes "oh shit" when the thing he poked turns out to be something bad
Don't be hard on Ging, being one of the best gives you the highest expectations for your son.
Aaaand than he is a foolish enhancer that gambled his Nen and nearly his life...
Nen is a wonder. The stars aligned for Kite. I think that was ALWAYS his destiny. To be reborn into something far greater than he previously was.
Kites relevance and relationship to Ging. Pitous En. Crazy Slot #3. The timing of Koala killing his vessel at that particular moment, any sooner or later the outcome would have been drastically different. Koalas presence and his decision specifically. Being Meruems twin. Colt being present. And the queen having given birth again before she died.
Yeah man,I feel the same,it's like Kite's history actually starts now,and his life before his reincarnation was like a "prologue"
Next video idea:
What would Tonpa's Nen affinity be if his aura nodes were opened?
Enhancer or Transmuter .... Manipulator perhaps?
Definitely manipulator, I think it fits his personality since he loves to crush people in the hunter exams via manipulation.
@@aloknight3656 Yeah sums it up perfectly but I really wanna see a vid on the fate of hisoka will he die in the current arc

(And they accepted)
I’ve guessed 13 of these intros correctly (all in a row). Starting to think I have a useless Nen ability.
It's not useless if it's being put to use 😉
@@pillowmaster4818 Tell that to Komugi
It's likely a subconscious invocation of nen like that of the nostrade daughter.
When kite (new kite) said by names kite! When the ither ant was on the phone I remember by jaw dropping I was freaking out I was so suprised

Thanks for this video.
Very well done. Although, I was a bit surprised that there was only one moment, when you came close to acknowledging that,
Kite now has a mouse/rat tail.
I hope kite returns so we see what the other weapons for crazy slots or at least we get it in a data book or something.
I hope his crazy slots is amped up since he's now an ant
Plus post Mortem nen.
Rn I m hoping hxh returns
Kite has purple eyes just like Meruem, so that might be another indicator that they are similar.
Ya know how the queen was dead so the other ants left to become their own queen's? I could see pito experimenting trying it out herself maybe ... maybe
Thank you for talking mor and elaborating on this. Like the singular episode/ few manga chapters that actually cover new Kite and then just no reference to it again made me feel like I was getting gaslit by Togashi that the entire scenario wasn’t completely bonkers
Didn’t female kite have a tail?
In the toddler form kite was shown with a very thin tail. I would assume it’s tucked into the jump suit in child form. I guess that’s legitimizes her being an “ant”. God I hope HxH comes back
I have a theory: to be king maybe Meruem needed to be mostly (like 99%) ant and what was left was the bulk of human DNA he didn't use, enter the twin sister, now the new Kite.

But don't let this distract you from the real question that is: Did you know that bungee gum has the properties of both rubber and gum?
I do believe that is stated somewhere in the deep lore.
Finding out you are a fellow Aussie makes your channel all the better!
From a narrative standpoint tho
Does Kite coming back make sense?
Like, doesn't it take away from Gon vs Pitou, Gon losing his Nen, etc. etc.
honestly feel he should've stayed dead as i always had problems with the reincarnation concept(especially for some characters even if there's justification.),it makes gon's near death/loss of nen along with the angst during it kinda pointless(though still feel gon vs. pitou had much more to it past that.) and let's be honest it's highly unlikely we'll see him again with how the series is going(and personally would've reworked the arc in a few areas as while i like kite's mentor angle with gon i didn't feel that attached to him even reading the manga but felt his impact nonetheless.).
Yes
It actually makes sense. Because Pitou wanted to restore Kite to "play" with him again, because she enjoyed it so much. That's how she created her Dr. Blythe ability. But Kite's soul had left his body already, to be reborn. That makes Gon's tantrum with Pitou even worse, because Pitou really wanted to restore Kite from the beginning, she just can't.
It's ignored b/c the series is stellar. If it werent, it'd be critiqued like any other blunder.
Feel like it shows just how pointless gons rage was again
It was revealed in the Exhibition: Togashi Yoshihiro Puzzle (that was held in Tokyo from October 28,2022 to January 9,2023) in the Nen Chart about the characters Nen types,that,just like Gon,Kite lost his Nen,certainly after the reincarnation,probably because her aura nodes are now closed in her new body
But I think she could just learn again how to use aura,and probably her Nen ability could come back automatically,but for now,Crazy Slots is gone
Shouldnt Kite now be one of the most powerful beeings in the human world? After all, she is the twin sister of Meruem. She is a royal chimera ant
I thought so too at first, but wouldn't it make more sense that they got very little power, since the goal was to make a singular overwhelmingly powerful being.

used to refer to two or more people OR THINGS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED OR EASILY IDENTIFIED. This means that it can be both based on the context, and with the context we have... We can assume it's singular.
Hisoka also used post mordem nen after fighting Lucilfer. He used his gum to continue his heart beating after death, to bring him back.

I enjoy both of your channels. I got into one piece a little late so your videos have helped a lot but been on HxH for a long time. I like the way you form your opinions and ways to elevate the thinking of where things have more meaning in broader context. Dope videos bro this is by far the smartest shit I’ve ever said in context to anime.

Explains why the ants are ridiculously powerful. They respawned with post-mortem Nen as added bonus.
It would’ve made more sense if gon was the one who poked the bear but alas it’s still a masterpiece.
Also I call kites #3 “mace” a baby rattle b/c that’s what it reminded me of and it helps with the baby.
Edit: I thought the Queen Ant chooses the genes it wishes to pass down after eating/collecting them.
I think kites death was just to show us more of how nen works through reincarnation and how it correlates to a soul etc.
You don’t know how bad I needed this video today 🙌🏼
I'm not sure but I remember pitou saying that kites body was halfly given to the queen
While the other half was used or the flesh and DNA was used to for the puppet kite
Since pitou has the ability to regenerate/knit/create flesh
So possibly she created a replica of kites body
While the soul and the other half was putted to the queen's digestion?
Idk just a theory oof
Kite couldn't use that secret ability because A. He cant choose what comes out and B. Once crazy slotz lands on a number he cannot reroll until he is out of combat so unless 3 was that magic number he was simply brought back via part of him being eaten by the queen and his mostly human appearance was most likely due to meruem taking most of the nutrients just like what sometimes happens with twins in humans thats why he was so tiny in birth
I thought this with the lack of Kite being eaten, but you see Pitou suggest to Meruem that the brain is the tastiest part,
What if Kites Brain was fed to the Queen as it would have been great for her growth of the king, and then the body was kept for Pitou to play with it?
Honestly I think my favorite part about Kite was when he said that he got a bad spin and then Killua would say “then why did you choose that ability…?”
I really miss him, he was my favorite character. So sad he died so soon:(
Btw kite is my favorite! So excited to see her boosted aura. I think totally graduated to a specialist. Personally I think you can classify any super versatile nen user a specialist as long as they maintain the nen quantity and memory to use all they know.
Hunter x Hunter's "casual" view of the soul actually looks very stoic:
Marcus Aurelius - 'You are a little soul carrying about a corpse, as Epictetus used to say.'
Idk if anyone has had this theory or whatever I'm about to say, but I've always believed that if you lose your nen ability whether through a nen contract (Gon) or as a part of your ability ( kites number 3 spin), then you can come back as a specialist that wields every category except your original affinity. Ging stated to gon that if he wanted his nen back then he was gona have to work harder at reactivating his nen. I also believe that if we ever see more of kite, It will be with gon and the two of them training side by side to unlock new abilities to replace the ones that were taken from them as a result of their battle with the same enemy.
