Just one thing to note is that "Nen Restrictions or Nen Limitations" are NOT specific to conjurers. Any Nen user can create this as long as their will is strong enough. For example Kurapika's chains are OP against Spiders but weak to everyone else.
@@jordanpatterson8536 Personally I think other than specialist. The most OP Nen Category has to be Enhancers. Having Extreme Speed, Strength and Stamina would beat most people in the verse. Imagine Uvogin with Nen Limitations.
I love how Nen is an extension of the users personality, so often characters can’t “copy” abilities, their abilities develop & strengthen based on individual passion, eg. How specialists can only get their abilities through genetics/special circumstances that borne their abilities such as Neon’s internal desire to want to predict the future, or Kurapika’s internal desire to want to become stronger at a faster rate which caused their powers to manifest soundly
If you read the manga, you'd see that in spite of them being an extension of personal experience, the power system is so well designed that someone can in-fact use the Hatsu of other people if they have a good enough understanding of nen and how that ability works, and even developed their own variation of it from scratch. Of course this would take an absolute genius to adapt to using new abilities like that but it's been implied that it's not even linked to their own nen ability. Ging is just that adept at understanding and using Nen (Number 1 in the world actually), I wouldn't doubt he has some limitations on what he can develop from scratch (I.e. it could be limited by Nen type since Enchancer/Emission are much more simple than other types and we've only seen him copy and Emission technique) but he literally created 2 new nen techniques on the spot just because of his experience with Leorio.
This makes me believe that if a power system like that existed in our world, we would see a lot of "fashion" of abilities. For example someone might create a wing powers, another modify it to be more effective and efficient, and then people who want their power to be flight, would just try to copy and learn this ability (basically instead of trying to create their own variation they would just spend a year trying to make the exast same ability that is proven efficient), so we would end up with a lot of the same abilities, just how clothing nowadays work.
@@ThiVasss You know Nen made me think, if they wanted to, they could totally institutionalize nen abilities and make it to where you just get a specific set of abilities but can't create your own. Since you'd be mass producing abilities you'd cut out the individualism and make nen more....well, standardized. So I feel what you're saying wouldn't be too far off. They'd especially want to stop specialists and manipulators from existing outside of higher authorities cuz they're the most dangerous 😂
Killua's electricity might be an exception; it might be visible to non Nen users too. Real electricity is also basically invisible, and the electrical sparks we see come from the surrounding air interacting with the electricity. So non Nen users might also be able to see the sparks of superheated air when Killua uses his ability, which I thought was a cool, possible exception.
Nope, any nen user should be able to see Killua's Lightning as long as In isn't being applied to his Aura. Any non-nen user would be unable to see the lightning.
@@mixstardust429 OP was saying that the light you see from lightning is a byproduct of electricity passing through air. So like if you had an invisible hand in water the water would make the shape of the hand and expand but the hand itself isn’t visible.
Just letting you know that Hisoka’s bungee gum has the properties of rubber and gum Also Franklin is an emitter not a conjurer and Nen limitations are not limited to conjurers, anyone can use them (Chrollo, Uvogin, Pitou all have restrictions on some their abilities)
@@lealta1481 Franklin’s Double Machine Gun is not exactly a conjuration ability. It is more like a sacrifice in exchange of his abilities’ accessibility and convenience. It is very similar to Shoot’s sacrificing his arm to obtain the three prosthetic hands and bird cage.
@@ronanohara2132 i thought the exchange was that he could never use Nen ever again in his life in exchange for all the power he could get to kill Pitou.
@@slevinchannel7589 everyone should is false. I would make sure to go against any statements like this. its just like min maxers and net deckers. i always go against people with logic like this and beat them
Every nen type can impose conditions on themselves to enhance their nen. This is the reason Gon was able to age himself to his peak; he was willing to throw every bit of nen he would ever have at Pitou... this is a self-imposed condition that turned him into a demi-god for like, 10 minutes.
Any Nen affinity can use self imposed rules and conditions to strengthen their nen,for example Gon did that subconsciously against Pitou. Great video overall 💜
Yep. Limitations, Vows and Restrictions are arguably THE most important thing: Not everyone HAS to do it, but Everyone can and arguably: everyone should. That this TH-camr does not know this is a bit... ...Well, just watch Nwew World Review, the Nr.1 HxH-TH-camr!
@@slevinchannel7589 that's such a beautiful concept, the more power you get through conditions the higher the price you pay, i just wanna see prime Gon once again but this time with a happy Normal Gon personality before I die
Honestly have never clicked on any of your videos faster. As much as I love naruto hxh will always be my favorite. And it's great to see you dipping your toes into other animes
Nen was hard to understand because of how it was explained differently by different characters, with very contradictory statements based on how they were trained. Basically, some characters either lied or didn't know how to tutor shit...lol much like Aizen's true goal(Ichigo and Urahara drawing different conclusions in the end was meant to leave things open ended, yet fans believe he was lonely solely based on Ichigo's hunch), so knowing when a character is just as clueless as the reader is important when you're reading manga. Well explained video! Keep them coming.
the only real differences, are nen affinity and their own hatsu. other then that, the principles and how they are learnt are all the same. biggest problem with nen is that it's foundational information is pretty huge, but once you have that foundation. you should be able to understand anything involving nen in hxh.
@@jmc2830 not their affinities that's the issue. It's how they explain the whole system from person to person. I do understand the whole concept, but that's the reason why I can see the confusion that some people face. I'm pointing out how different characters explain things through their own experiences, and it's up to the viewer or reader to know what makes sense.
@@revenantronin8377 ... every conjurer, every enhancer, every transmuter, every emitter. they all work under the same rules, it's not like every 2 emitters or transmuters are completely different. they use the same principles even if their hatsu are vastly different. the only wild card is specialist. and since that's the case, it's a bit like paramecia devil fruits in one piece. if it doesn't fit into the easily established groups, it's going to be specialist. which makes it easy to differentiate them from the more clear nen classifications. that's why the nen ring exists.. to show that 5 times out of 6 nen users are pretty easy to understand and classify. people like to over complicate it for nerd points, make out like their interest is deeper then it actually is. hunter x hunter fans are the worst for this since hxh is pretty high tier anime/manga but is admittedly niche even within the anime/manga community. so acting like it's this incomprehensible thing makes the fact that it's never going to be as popular as naruto or one piece a little easier on the fans.
I've heard people saying before that this is the best power system in shonen, and I finally understand why now. It's so simple in theory, yet it has so much depth to it, and I love that you can just tailor fit your abilities to be what YOU want them to be, instead of them being decided from birth or whatever. It's just so neat, and the possibilities are endless.
New World Review has a ton. Maybe NC will make different/better videos or something. I often watch these even if Seth/Swag have already covered the topic, anyway. But if you want more HxH right now, I recommend NewWorld until NC releases the next vid lol.
Kurapika's chains aren't useless/unusable against people who aren't the Phantom Troupe. It's only his chain jail, which forces the target into a state of Zetsu and binds them, like with Uvogin, like with Chrollo, that is. All of his other chains and nen abilities can be used against literally everyone else. Like his Judgement Chain, which he used on himself no less. He's not a member of the troupe - wouldn't be able to do that if it was limited to troupe members. Chrollo's ability isn't to copy/create other people's abilities, or anything else you said, it's literally to TAKE them after fulfilling certain conditions. That's why Neon couldn't use Lovely Ghost Writer anymore after Chrollo took it, and why he couldn't use it any longer after her (implied) death. And why he couldn't take Zeno Zoldyck or Silva's abilities when fighting them in the same arc.
@@amai-w8fbruhhh. He NEEDS to use Emperor Time to use his chain ability's ability. Emperor Time is an ability to make him 100% perpetient to all nen types. Take for example his Divine Chain's ability to heal is a full on Enhancer type ability. If Emperor Time is not active, he won't be able to heal as fast as he healed his hands when fighting Uvo. And he can use his Dowsing Chain's ability even through video when Emperor Time is active. Edit: 100% proficient
@@Sku11Ski11 yeah but the burden of using emperor time is way too harsh, his power was clearly tailored for revenge and he wastes valuable "resources" when he uses it to fight anyone. The only real use for him is against the spiders cuz otherwise it's just a incredible waste, as his power is too extreme.
It’s “Uvogin” and Kurapika can use all his chains on anyone except chain jail, Kurapika used judgement chain on himself to enforce that Also every nen category can set conditions not just Conjurors
@@crypticraps Then let me do so: Conjuring or Emitting something that is Indestructable is actually possible, as we we with Hakoware and Tag. An overlooked Nen-Rule: IFFFF you make the thing Harmless and Fair and make it a 'Counter', it can be indestructbale.
Finally, because every time I watched HxH, they explained it, but it was kinda hard to grasp because it seems like they didn't stick to explanations provided.
Probably because they don’t fully. Togashi was better with someone reigning him in, imo. YuYu Hakusho is way better than HxH as far as I’m concerned, because it’s not all ass-pulls. It’s far more consistent. Like Hell, Nen gets introduced so late because Togashi hasn’t thought of it when he started the series, so Killua’s transformation (claws) had to be retconned as unconscious Nen use or something. Also, why did the family of assassins who all use Nen, not teach Killua about it? Why not use every advantage they can get? It’s stupid.
@Paradox8493 You make a good point, Nen was mentioned like halfway, but ended up being massively important. Also, Killian should of had first hand knowledge of nen, considering it was the bread and butter of the family business. Now that you mentioned it, if it was such a common thing, what about the Hunter Exams? Shouldn't of that been a requirement for a license?
No, only 2 of Kurapika's chains can be used against the spider gang. Those chains are the one used for Chain Jail, and the other is for Judgment Chain.
18:07 Correction, Not just conjurors Can imply self imposed rules anyone technically can, or don't you remember what goun did during the camera ant arch, Where he made a pact to have all of his possible potential be released and expunged for those few minutes... Tragic stuff really...
NCHammer. You are like, one of the only TH-camrs I would actually find enjoyment in meeting. You’re just a real person talking about shit that you love and I fw that hard. Keep it up man, you’re doing great, no matter what you post.
What can nen do ? togashi : yes 1:24 nen 3:51 basics 24:16 gyo 24:52 in 25:32 en 26:30 shu 26:44 Ko 27:14 ken 27:48 Ryu 10:17 hatsus 11:19 hexagon and more basics of hatsus. 13:16 enhancers 14:44 transmuters 16:20 Emision 17:56 Conjuration // 20:54 Manipulators 22:57 Especialist 19:23 conditions ; this can be use for everyone but this are completly obligatory if you are a conjurator. 29:40 handicaps and nen conditions Meta points ; enhancers can do everything that isn't hatsu better that any other hatsu.
I just love the beauty and range of nen abilities, I love how Togashi worked from the basics and built the best power system i have ever seen in all of anime
One correction at the start of the video which you probably saw a lot of. Franklin is shooting nen bullets. If it's not physically (only nen) then it's emission. If it's physical then it's conjuration.
This might be your most ambitious video so far, Naruto or not. It actually made me understand way more than you would expect to be honest. I don't really think Naruto copied HxH as much as the fact both are deeply based on Asian mythology/theology concepts of spirits and affinity. I really do appreciate this and I actually wish you covered other anime (maybe older ones like Rurouni Kenshin, Evangelion, etc) but I understand it affects viewership and ad rev.
I love your videos regardless of which Anime it’s based on. The depth of explanation your community receives on whatever the topic of said video is based upon is second to none. Keep up the dope af work Broski.
Just want to point out more experience users can use other affinities to “enhance” their original hatsu like netero who is en enhancer but his guanyin buddhasativa is speculated to be conjured and manipulated while enhanced. And i agree that nen power system is the most op and can literally translate into most if not any power system in anime
One small correction that I haven't really seen covered by anyone else here, IN is not completely invincible, it can in fact be seen by someone using gyo on their eyes. A very early example of this is both of Hisoka's fights in the Heaven's Arena tower. In both fights he used In to make his bungee gum invisible, and gyo was used to reveal this on the video recording as a test for Wing's students.
Speaking of JJK. I find it amazing that Gege's Curse System is inspired from Togashi's Nen System. The Nen System is probably one of IF not the best magic system/s in the world of manga and anime.
Very good explanation, a few nit picky things. I see some have stated them already but I haven't seen is kurapika can use his chains on other people. It's his chain jail is only towards spiders. His other abilities can be used on others.
Using in on your body won't make you invisible, it will make the aura around you invisible And I doesn't hides aura from Gyo, the hole point on Eye Gyo is to see the aura that was hidden using in
Question, remember at the market when Gon and Kilua where looking at goods to sell at a profit to make enough money to get a greed island consul, they found good stuff by looking at which items had nen in them, would Blinky be able to suck those up?
I believe yes. Those are real items enhanced with nen (with shuu or something I think). It was explained that very high level professionals/artisans develop nen without them knowing, their nen makes their performance/crafted items higher quality than normal.
One of the many reasons why Nen is so amazing is unlike other anime that constantly breaks rules or invents new rules to suit a power up and then is actually making you stronger the more restrictions you put on yourself or trade to become more powerful. Kurapika does both of these things by becoming almost unbeatable to the phantom troop because of his conditions and trades his own life for a power boost like emperor time that makes him incredibly challenging to beat but not technically unbeatable. A lot of anime power is only limited by a body which is usually already superhumanly strong like a super Saiyan but even then there are limits that can be brokenlike super sayian 2 and 3, and you look at something like Naruto where technically there are rules and limitations to jutsu's but often these can either be broken or ignored. Mastery is also not very important because you could be a master of a jutsu and just be our class with people with God like abilities like a tailed beast. The classic example is Rock Lee while he is a badass no matter how strong he gets he will never defeat Naruto. Furthermore, while you can learn from other people you are also stronger when when you have an individual personality that creates something unique to you which is not great for you know a Harry Potter or Naruto effect where you want to immerse yourself into the world necessarily, but makes characters stronger and more distinct, and often the more creative you are the more powerful you are for example hisoka is not particularly strong in the world of HunterxHunter there are several characters who could easily kill him, but his creativity is why he's so dangerous.
Nen was such a fascinating power system when I watched Hunter x Hunter. would appreciate an explanation of how Gon got his full Nen powers. it was really crazy
Gon achieved that because as Killua stated, his adult version got that incredible power if he trains regularly until his adulthood. Gon did a nen conditions where he sacrifice his incredible potential as a powerful nen user someday and its even put his life on danger. Just like Shalnark autopilot, its just temporary boost and have a dangerous after effect to the user.
30:25 Correction, shoot did not cover his other eye to make a condition to become stronger, it was narrated that he just felt like covering his eyes for no reason, just in the heat of the moment...
Ok, so.... a few things you got wrong... 1: Binding Vows and the like are something that anyone can use, a good example being Morell, his self-imposed limitation being that he needs his pipe to use his Nen Ability. 2: No, Conjurers are limited to one object, since they need to be extra-familiar with the object that they're making. Kurotopi is an exception, but then again, that Nen Ability has other limits, like how the user needs to place their left hand onto the object they're copying, while the right hand creates it, and that whatever it makes, won't be alive. 3: Chrollo's ability is to steal another person's Hatsu, but even that has more than a few pre-requisites involved. 4: Neon's Lovely Ghostwriter doesn't tell the outright past, it writes a small poem, a poem that tells the future, looking at a relatively small timeframe 5: Specialists are the Jackpot of Nen Affinities, since you can use any affinity to a 100% capacity. 6: Uvogin, not Ugovin ....Link to the scaling, y'know, beyond a blurry thing that could be literally anything?
You are a specialist! Your nen ability is called Library. In addition to gaining heightened analytical abilities and a photographic memory, you gain access to each volume in your library. The number of volumes is limited only by your mind. Each volume has its own focus or ability. When using a volume it physically manifests, making Conjuration very important for you. Volume One is where you store all information on every nen user, including their nen abilities, that you have physically encountered. Volume Two is where you store all other information that doesn't belong in Volume One. Volume Three is where you seal living beings on a page. You can visit each page, but only when you meditate while holding this book. You can't physically visit a page. This volume is a great way to confine your enemies until you're ready to deal with them. It could also be used to hide someone your protecting. The accomodations within the page can vary, depending on how comfortable you want them to be. Tea with crumpets? Torture chamber? Tropical island? The possibilities are endless 😀 Volume Four is were you seal physical objects for easy access. Like Volume Three, one object per page. Think about all the energy you would save when moving! You've accumulated a rather large arsenal of ninja weapons 😉
Well unfortunately I didn't really learn anything new here. You did mostly cover the basics. But I do feel some of your info is off. For example referring to Kurapika's chains as being only made for the Spiders. Only Chain Jail is exclusively used on the Troupe. Likewise I doubt he could continue to make any further abilities as he has already stretched the limits of his potential and he doesn't have the same scope as Gon and Killua. Take Chrollo as you mentioned in regards to bypassing restrictions. He did so by applying more unknown limitations to Skill Hunter in order to develop that Bookmark. You did a fine job explaining things. But Naruto seems more your bread and butter. This explanation felt more like reading the wiki article on Nen. I mean no offense in saying this. As I very much enjoy your content. This just didn't feel as natural to you. As if you were not as sure of the info you had.
By limits of his potential why do I feel you're thinking of Kastro's "memory overload" death? Kurapika (and anyone for that matter) could make as many abilities as they so desire. But it may not make sense to do so. After all, Kurapika's goals are twofold: finding his clan's eyes (dowsing chain) and destroying the spiders. If he wanted he could make more abilities but considering how he shortcutted his way to power in the first place, he may not deign to do so. Also Kastro died because he focused more on summoning another clone as opposed to just using gyo so there's not really a hard limit on nen abilities unless the user themselves makes a condition like that
@@Whodjathink It's not about Kastro. But simply the limits of Aura potential. Like how Gon and Killua have potential seen in 1 in 10 million. Kurapika doesn't have that same potential by his own admission. Kastro shows the limits of your inate potential and how far is spreads though and why forcing it into a class you are opposing to ruins your overall growth. You can see how far Gon's was for example when he sacrificed everything to temporarily access his full potential right then. Kurapika has created so many nen abilities as such I feel that with his smaller potential. He likely does not have the room of growth to make any more than he already has.
@@johnsmith5922 Then that room for growth is more tied to his personality than "potential." Potential only really showed us how fast one can learn nen. Kurapika doesn't train nearly as much as Gon or Killua does and its because he feels he can't afford to. Kurapika does himself a disservice by being more focused on his goal than on himself, as evidenced by his own abilities, Izunavi was partially right when he said "It seems to me YOU'RE the one bound in chains"
@@Whodjathink I do get your point. But I feel that what your saying only furthers my point. His singular drive is what helped push him to learn his nen abilities as fast as he can. Even the flashback to the development of the Steal Chain brings about the fact that Izunavi was pressing him on how he developed that chain. At least to me it feels like it was guiding him due to a limit of how many he could make. The fact he made as many as he did should also suggest a limit since if he had more room for growth with his drive. He would have made even more abilities. Since he clearly had another idea he wanted to use instead of the Steal Chain. I think he made the limit he realistically could within that 6 months before he threw himself at the Troupe.
@@johnsmith5922 You're not wrong, since he wanted that one mafia mission before he learned nen. So I feel it's less to do with "potential" and more to do with use of time. In this case it's very similar to Kastro. His clone wasn't actually a bad idea, but given he only had 2 years to get himself up to Hisoka(who was already a monster in his own right) he "wasted his talent and effort" in doing something outside of his field of expertise. Like if I was a barbecue chef and suddenly decided I wanted to make a delicious sushi for a food competition in 2 months, my time would have been better spent perfecting my own craft before I branched out. Kurapika's use of chains is the same. He wanted(or felt he needed) that power ASAP, which is why his conditions are so strict in the first place. You may be right in that he learns slower than Gon and Killua(since Kurapika also didn't want to listen to his own trainer unless it benefited him lol) but his insistence on quick power is what made him do what he did. I feel if Kurapika wanted, he could make another set of chains on his left hand, but since Conjurers have to really think about the powers they give their items, he really wouldn't have had the free time to do so, since he's almost always on the hunt
17:34: Common Myth that you fell for, mate. Leoreo isnt opening a Portal and punching through it: It's all a bit fast but if you actually look at it, he definetly and surely created a Nen-Beast. An arm-shaped and arm-coloured Nen-Beast. This many-meters-long Thing is definetly not his real arm, that's sure.
I think you're a bit off also. It's more so like he's warping a punch through a wormhole and sends the punch wherever he desires, being he's an emitter
Great video, but it’s a common misconception that Kurapika can only use his chains on the Phantom Troupe. However, he can use his chains on people and things other than the Phantom Troupe. The only ability he can’t use on anyone or anything else is Chain Jail, which binds and restricts movement
Already know how nen works but always nice to hear other ppl talk about. HxH is so good people always sleep on it and when I tell them to watch it they agree that it’s one of the best these seen. Also nen is one of the if not the best concept in terms of power systems I think.
I have a question. Suppose a person has an infinite amount of nen and can output an endless amount of it. In that case, does this mean that this individual can do anything, using any abilities and creating weapons that would make them invincible without any restriction in the hunterxhunter verse?
Well...no. they would still be limited by their nen afinity... an enhancer would be a bad at conjuring etc... But there's exceptions I guess. Also nen abilities are stronger with restrictions.
Random but I remember when I first watched Hunter Hunter and they explained Zetsu. I immediately thought of how Zetsu from Naruto was kind of the lowkey, quiet, spy for the akatsuki. Zetsu can mean to suppres in Japanese. Thought it was a cool parallel!
Just getting into this channel recently, and I'm absolutely thrilled to know HxH is your favourite anime. I resonate so much with that, there's no other anime like it no matter what they say
when everyone realizes killuas godspeed whirlwind ability requires a superhuman mastery of ryu because hes able to control his aura and body functions at lightning speed with speed of lightning
Just at 12:00 But so far it feels like specialist might just be a group of uncategorized affinities. Like maybe there is 6 or 8 more but they never got singled out and got packed together as specialist.
Before even starting this vid i just wanna say HxH has been my favorite anime for a while now and with the popularity and unpopularity One Piece and Boruto are getting respectively im glad there’s still HxH content being dropped, even during such a long hiatus
you are my favorite channel man, I see you as a specialist. As far as your ability, I don’t feel like I know enough about your personality/experiences; but I will take a stab at it. You can turn your non-HxH tattoos (if any) into nen puppets and/or just take their abilities for yourself. I.E if you had naruto you could form a nen-fueled rasengan 🤷🏼♂️ this is anime meta
the nen system seems to be inspired by dungeons and dragons. look it up, nen categories mimic schools of magic or psionic manifestation almost 1 to 1. wouldn't surprise me though, dnd was super popular in japan in the 80s and 90s.
Thank you for doing this 😂 I love Nen! And your videos. I clicked so fast LMAO Edit: more Nen coverage!! & You'd probably be a conjurer maybe? You explain big concepts well so I'd say you're analytical lol
hey Nick, you know what the dragons in naruto/boruto are about ? like there is Kirin, Nagato’s gedo statue awakening after Yahiko gets killed, sagemode kabuto’s blinding jutsu, in boruto when konohamaru summons the next monkey sage they face a dragon demon. just seems cool how theres so many and would be nice if they were connected in any way
People dont die from not controlling their aura, they dont even faint. The injuries they sustained in the fight, combined with giving off their aura making them weak, kills them.
Hunter x Hunter has always been my favorite because of the story and the power structure. It makes a ton of sense and I love that matchups and skill determine the winner, not overall raw power like DBZ. I’m down to watch any Hunter videos since we don’t have more content.
Hold lotta comments here but no one answer my question at the end 😭😭
You'd be an emmiter
Emiter just based on the little bit of your personality
I think your Nen Affinity is Specialist because you’re surprisingly effective at Manipulation, Conjuring Videos, Enhancing my TH-cam experience😂
You'd be an ant with OP adaptability but VERY weak to insecticides, which is a major downside tbh
You have different personality types but I think you would be a conjuer. More hxh videos
Just one thing to note is that "Nen Restrictions or Nen Limitations" are NOT specific to conjurers. Any Nen user can create this as long as their will is strong enough. For example Kurapika's chains are OP against Spiders but weak to everyone else.
No, they would still be OP on others. Those others would be Kurapika 😂
@@jordanpatterson8536 Personally I think other than specialist. The most OP Nen Category has to be Enhancers. Having Extreme Speed, Strength and Stamina would beat most people in the verse. Imagine Uvogin with Nen Limitations.
@@mainelettuce9040 Uvogin already had a limitation on his nen ability.
@@MysterygamerX1234 Really. What was it?
He’s also 2 different things. What was he, Emitter and Specialist, or Conjurer and Specialist? Idr.
I love how Nen is an extension of the users personality, so often characters can’t “copy” abilities, their abilities develop & strengthen based on individual passion, eg. How specialists can only get their abilities through genetics/special circumstances that borne their abilities such as Neon’s internal desire to want to predict the future, or Kurapika’s internal desire to want to become stronger at a faster rate which caused their powers to manifest soundly
Yeah that's how Hisoka can tell someone's nen affinity by their personality.
Unless you're a blank canvas like Chrollo or you're just Gon's dad I guess. If you've read the manga.
If you read the manga, you'd see that in spite of them being an extension of personal experience, the power system is so well designed that someone can in-fact use the Hatsu of other people if they have a good enough understanding of nen and how that ability works, and even developed their own variation of it from scratch. Of course this would take an absolute genius to adapt to using new abilities like that but it's been implied that it's not even linked to their own nen ability. Ging is just that adept at understanding and using Nen (Number 1 in the world actually), I wouldn't doubt he has some limitations on what he can develop from scratch (I.e. it could be limited by Nen type since Enchancer/Emission are much more simple than other types and we've only seen him copy and Emission technique) but he literally created 2 new nen techniques on the spot just because of his experience with Leorio.
This makes me believe that if a power system like that existed in our world, we would see a lot of "fashion" of abilities. For example someone might create a wing powers, another modify it to be more effective and efficient, and then people who want their power to be flight, would just try to copy and learn this ability (basically instead of trying to create their own variation they would just spend a year trying to make the exast same ability that is proven efficient), so we would end up with a lot of the same abilities, just how clothing nowadays work.
@@ThiVasss You know Nen made me think, if they wanted to, they could totally institutionalize nen abilities and make it to where you just get a specific set of abilities but can't create your own.

They'd especially want to stop specialists and manipulators from existing outside of higher authorities cuz they're the most dangerous 😂
Killua's electricity might be an exception; it might be visible to non Nen users too. Real electricity is also basically invisible, and the electrical sparks we see come from the surrounding air interacting with the electricity. So non Nen users might also be able to see the sparks of superheated air when Killua uses his ability, which I thought was a cool, possible exception.
Only thing is he’s not conjuring lightning. He’s mimicking it
@@Xenythx if he's mimicking lightning/electricity would it not still react with the air to create sparks?? just a question that kinda made sense to me
Hmmm … somebody wasn’t listening 👂
Nope, any nen user should be able to see Killua's Lightning as long as In isn't being applied to his Aura. Any non-nen user would be unable to see the lightning.
@@mixstardust429 OP was saying that the light you see from lightning is a byproduct of electricity passing through air. So like if you had an invisible hand in water the water would make the shape of the hand and expand but the hand itself isn’t visible.
Just letting you know that Hisoka’s bungee gum has the properties of rubber and gum
Also Franklin is an emitter not a conjurer and Nen limitations are not limited to conjurers, anyone can use them (Chrollo, Uvogin, Pitou all have restrictions on some their abilities)
Franklin uses them too. The fact he doesn't has fingers is it
@@lealta1481 Franklin’s Double Machine Gun is not exactly a conjuration ability. It is more like a sacrifice in exchange of his abilities’ accessibility and convenience. It is very similar to Shoot’s sacrificing his arm to obtain the three prosthetic hands and bird cage.
@@mokyodai gon also used a nen vow to use all of his potential in exchange for his life
@@ronanohara2132 i thought the exchange was that he could never use Nen ever again in his life in exchange for all the power he could get to kill Pitou.
@@slevinchannel7589 everyone should is false. I would make sure to go against any statements like this. its just like min maxers and net deckers. i always go against people with logic like this and beat them
Every nen type can impose conditions on themselves to enhance their nen. This is the reason Gon was able to age himself to his peak; he was willing to throw every bit of nen he would ever have at Pitou... this is a self-imposed condition that turned him into a demi-god for like, 10 minutes.
Any Nen affinity can use self imposed rules and conditions to strengthen their nen,for example Gon did that subconsciously against Pitou.
Great video overall 💜
Yep.
Limitations, Vows and Restrictions
are arguably THE most important thing: Not everyone HAS to do it,
but Everyone can and arguably: everyone should.

@@slevinchannel7589 that's such a beautiful concept, the more power you get through conditions the higher the price you pay, i just wanna see prime Gon once again but this time with a happy Normal Gon personality before I die
Honestly have never clicked on any of your videos faster. As much as I love naruto hxh will always be my favorite. And it's great to see you dipping your toes into other animes
Same I immediately clicked 😂😂

You would be a specialist bro. No question
Fasted I’ve ever clicked on a video
Nen was hard to understand because of how it was explained differently by different characters, with very contradictory statements based on how they were trained.
Basically, some characters either lied or didn't know how to tutor shit...lol much like Aizen's true goal(Ichigo and Urahara drawing different conclusions in the end was meant to leave things open ended, yet fans believe he was lonely solely based on Ichigo's hunch), so knowing when a character is just as clueless as the reader is important when you're reading manga.
Well explained video! Keep them coming.
the only real differences, are nen affinity and their own hatsu. other then that, the principles and how they are learnt are all the same. biggest problem with nen is that it's foundational information is pretty huge, but once you have that foundation. you should be able to understand anything involving nen in hxh.
@@jmc2830 not their affinities that's the issue. It's how they explain the whole system from person to person. I do understand the whole concept, but that's the reason why I can see the confusion that some people face. I'm pointing out how different characters explain things through their own experiences, and it's up to the viewer or reader to know what makes sense.
@@revenantronin8377 ... every conjurer, every enhancer, every transmuter, every emitter. they all work under the same rules, it's not like every 2 emitters or transmuters are completely different. they use the same principles even if their hatsu are vastly different. the only wild card is specialist. and since that's the case, it's a bit like paramecia devil fruits in one piece. if it doesn't fit into the easily established groups, it's going to be specialist. which makes it easy to differentiate them from the more clear nen classifications. that's why the nen ring exists.. to show that 5 times out of 6 nen users are pretty easy to understand and classify. people like to over complicate it for nerd points, make out like their interest is deeper then it actually is. hunter x hunter fans are the worst for this since hxh is pretty high tier anime/manga but is admittedly niche even within the anime/manga community. so acting like it's this incomprehensible thing makes the fact that it's never going to be as popular as naruto or one piece a little easier on the fans.
@@revenantronin8377 then you should prefer one piece then, it's easier not enjoyable for me though
I've heard people saying before that this is the best power system in shonen, and I finally understand why now. It's so simple in theory, yet it has so much depth to it, and I love that you can just tailor fit your abilities to be what YOU want them to be, instead of them being decided from birth or whatever. It's just so neat, and the possibilities are endless.
More Hunter x Hunter videos please! I would love a video explaining more in depth for each different nen type.
New World Review has a ton. Maybe NC will make different/better videos or something. I often watch these even if Seth/Swag have already covered the topic, anyway. But if you want more HxH right now, I recommend NewWorld until NC releases the next vid lol.
Kurapika's chains aren't useless/unusable against people who aren't the Phantom Troupe. It's only his chain jail, which forces the target into a state of Zetsu and binds them, like with Uvogin, like with Chrollo, that is. All of his other chains and nen abilities can be used against literally everyone else. Like his Judgement Chain, which he used on himself no less. He's not a member of the troupe - wouldn't be able to do that if it was limited to troupe members.
Chrollo's ability isn't to copy/create other people's abilities, or anything else you said, it's literally to TAKE them after fulfilling certain conditions. That's why Neon couldn't use Lovely Ghost Writer anymore after Chrollo took it, and why he couldn't use it any longer after her (implied) death. And why he couldn't take Zeno Zoldyck or Silva's abilities when fighting them in the same arc.
I was looking for this comment, Kurapika can fight anyone with his chains.
Yeah but using emperor time for anything other than the spiders is stupid.
@@amai-w8fbruhhh. He NEEDS to use Emperor Time to use his chain ability's ability. Emperor Time is an ability to make him 100% perpetient to all nen types. Take for example his Divine Chain's ability to heal is a full on Enhancer type ability. If Emperor Time is not active, he won't be able to heal as fast as he healed his hands when fighting Uvo. And he can use his Dowsing Chain's ability even through video when Emperor Time is active.
Edit: 100% proficient
@@Sku11Ski11 yeah but the burden of using emperor time is way too harsh, his power was clearly tailored for revenge and he wastes valuable "resources" when he uses it to fight anyone.
The only real use for him is against the spiders cuz otherwise it's just a incredible waste, as his power is too extreme.
@@amai-w8f that's why it's op
It’s “Uvogin” and Kurapika can use all his chains on anyone except chain jail, Kurapika used judgement chain on himself to enforce that
Also every nen category can set conditions not just Conjurors

@@slevinchannel7589
Absolutely. I totally agree.
Finally, because every time I watched HxH, they explained it, but it was kinda hard to grasp because it seems like they didn't stick to explanations provided.
Probably because they don’t fully. Togashi was better with someone reigning him in, imo. YuYu Hakusho is way better than HxH as far as I’m concerned, because it’s not all ass-pulls. It’s far more consistent. Like Hell, Nen gets introduced so late because Togashi hasn’t thought of it when he started the series, so Killua’s transformation (claws) had to be retconned as unconscious Nen use or something. Also, why did the family of assassins who all use Nen, not teach Killua about it? Why not use every advantage they can get? It’s stupid.
it kinda makes you thankful for those annoying naruto over simplifying moments after watching hxh 😂😂
@Paradox8493 You make a good point, Nen was mentioned like halfway, but ended up being massively important. Also, Killian should of had first hand knowledge of nen, considering it was the bread and butter of the family business. Now that you mentioned it, if it was such a common thing, what about the Hunter Exams? Shouldn't of that been a requirement for a license?
There’s just soooo much info
@@NCHammer23 Well, maybe, we'll have a follow-up video down the line.
The only thing wrong with this power system is that you can’t explain it to someone real quick.

No. Manipulator, and possibly Emitter and Conjurer beats Enhancer at Shu.
Also Naruto was the youngest creator of a jutsu because he made sexy jutsu sometime between him being 9-12 so he holds that record
One correction at the start of the video which you probably saw a lot of. Franklin is shooting nen bullets. If it's not physically (only nen) then it's emission. If it's physical then it's conjuration.
This might be your most ambitious video so far, Naruto or not. It actually made me understand way more than you would expect to be honest. I don't really think Naruto copied HxH as much as the fact both are deeply based on Asian mythology/theology concepts of spirits and affinity. I really do appreciate this and I actually wish you covered other anime (maybe older ones like Rurouni Kenshin, Evangelion, etc) but I understand it affects viewership and ad rev.
naruto is kinda based off of the db series.
The water divination test is the part that copied HxH

I love your videos regardless of which Anime it’s based on. The depth of explanation your community receives on whatever the topic of said video is based upon is second to none. Keep up the dope af work Broski.
HxH absolutely has the best power system. 10/10 agree.
Just want to point out more experience users can use other affinities to “enhance” their original hatsu like netero who is en enhancer but his guanyin buddhasativa is speculated to be conjured and manipulated while enhanced.
And i agree that nen power system is the most op and can literally translate into most if not any power system in anime
Well, Netero can enhance his own Hand-Gesture and the Durability of his Emitted Statue,
but that doesnt prove all Nen can be enhanced.
I don't remember Netero ever being confirmed to be an enhancer, am I wrong? Was it stated on an interview or something?
@@frankfernandez2690yes
One small correction that I haven't really seen covered by anyone else here, IN is not completely invincible, it can in fact be seen by someone using gyo on their eyes. A very early example of this is both of Hisoka's fights in the Heaven's Arena tower. In both fights he used In to make his bungee gum invisible, and gyo was used to reveal this on the video recording as a test for Wing's students.
Hunter hunter is also my favorite... I went far enough to name my son Killua James.
I'm not sure if I should be impressed or disappointed
@@kwakhopani1798 the latter
Side note my homeboy also named his son Frederick Gon and they will be bff lol
I tried making my sons middle name jaraiya but was denied 🥲 lucky you got your way 😂
Speaking of JJK. I find it amazing that Gege's Curse System is inspired from Togashi's Nen System.
The Nen System is probably one of IF not the best magic system/s in the world of manga and anime.
Very good explanation, a few nit picky things. I see some have stated them already but I haven't seen is kurapika can use his chains on other people. It's his chain jail is only towards spiders. His other abilities can be used on others.
I love how you are broadening the scope of anime content you do
Just wanted to remind you that bungee gum contains the properties of both rubber and gum
Using in on your body won't make you invisible, it will make the aura around you invisible
And I doesn't hides aura from Gyo, the hole point on Eye Gyo is to see the aura that was hidden using in
Question, remember at the market when Gon and Kilua where looking at goods to sell at a profit to make enough money to get a greed island consul, they found good stuff by looking at which items had nen in them, would Blinky be able to suck those up?
I believe yes. Those are real items enhanced with nen (with shuu or something I think). It was explained that very high level professionals/artisans develop nen without them knowing, their nen makes their performance/crafted items higher quality than normal.
" Longest video I ever posted "
You know nothing about the 12 moons: Am I a joke to you?
One of the many reasons why Nen is so amazing is unlike other anime that constantly breaks rules or invents new rules to suit a power up and then is actually making you stronger the more restrictions you put on yourself or trade to become more powerful. Kurapika does both of these things by becoming almost unbeatable to the phantom troop because of his conditions and trades his own life for a power boost like emperor time that makes him incredibly challenging to beat but not technically unbeatable.
A lot of anime power is only limited by a body which is usually already superhumanly strong like a super Saiyan but even then there are limits that can be brokenlike super sayian 2 and 3, and you look at something like Naruto where technically there are rules and limitations to jutsu's but often these can either be broken or ignored. Mastery is also not very important because you could be a master of a jutsu and just be our class with people with God like abilities like a tailed beast. The classic example is Rock Lee while he is a badass no matter how strong he gets he will never defeat Naruto.
Furthermore, while you can learn from other people you are also stronger when when you have an individual personality that creates something unique to you which is not great for you know a Harry Potter or Naruto effect where you want to immerse yourself into the world necessarily, but makes characters stronger and more distinct, and often the more creative you are the more powerful you are for example hisoka is not particularly strong in the world of HunterxHunter there are several characters who could easily kill him, but his creativity is why he's so dangerous.
Nen was such a fascinating power system when I watched Hunter x Hunter. would appreciate an explanation of how Gon got his full Nen powers. it was really crazy
Gon achieved that because as Killua stated, his adult version got that incredible power if he trains regularly until his adulthood. Gon did a nen conditions where he sacrifice his incredible potential as a powerful nen user someday and its even put his life on danger. Just like Shalnark autopilot, its just temporary boost and have a dangerous after effect to the user.
I love this system it so detailed yet open for new stuff that still follows the rules but come from unexpected places just like life.
Omg I have never been more excited for a video
Instructions unclear, ended up creating a Rasengan.
30:25 Correction, shoot did not cover his other eye to make a condition to become stronger, it was narrated that he just felt like covering his eyes for no reason, just in the heat of the moment...
put me in next video i demand it
Ok, so.... a few things you got wrong...
1: Binding Vows and the like are something that anyone can use, a good example being Morell, his self-imposed limitation being that he needs his pipe to use his Nen Ability.
2: No, Conjurers are limited to one object, since they need to be extra-familiar with the object that they're making. Kurotopi is an exception, but then again, that Nen Ability has other limits, like how the user needs to place their left hand onto the object they're copying, while the right hand creates it, and that whatever it makes, won't be alive.
3: Chrollo's ability is to steal another person's Hatsu, but even that has more than a few pre-requisites involved.
4: Neon's Lovely Ghostwriter doesn't tell the outright past, it writes a small poem, a poem that tells the future, looking at a relatively small timeframe
5: Specialists are the Jackpot of Nen Affinities, since you can use any affinity to a 100% capacity.
6: Uvogin, not Ugovin
....Link to the scaling, y'know, beyond a blurry thing that could be literally anything?
Says ”without furtheradooo” but still use 1.5 minute intros…
You are a specialist! Your nen ability is called Library. In addition to gaining heightened analytical abilities and a photographic memory, you gain access to each volume in your library. The number of volumes is limited only by your mind. Each volume has its own focus or ability. When using a volume it physically manifests, making Conjuration very important for you.
Volume One is where you store all information on every nen user, including their nen abilities, that you have physically encountered.
Volume Two is where you store all other information that doesn't belong in Volume One.
Volume Three is where you seal living beings on a page. You can visit each page, but only when you meditate while holding this book. You can't physically visit a page. This volume is a great way to confine your enemies until you're ready to deal with them. It could also be used to hide someone your protecting. The accomodations within the page can vary, depending on how comfortable you want them to be. Tea with crumpets? Torture chamber? Tropical island? The possibilities are endless 😀
Volume Four is were you seal physical objects for easy access. Like Volume Three, one object per page. Think about all the energy you would save when moving! You've accumulated a rather large arsenal of ninja weapons 😉
Well unfortunately I didn't really learn anything new here. You did mostly cover the basics. But I do feel some of your info is off. For example referring to Kurapika's chains as being only made for the Spiders. Only Chain Jail is exclusively used on the Troupe. Likewise I doubt he could continue to make any further abilities as he has already stretched the limits of his potential and he doesn't have the same scope as Gon and Killua. Take Chrollo as you mentioned in regards to bypassing restrictions. He did so by applying more unknown limitations to Skill Hunter in order to develop that Bookmark. You did a fine job explaining things. But Naruto seems more your bread and butter. This explanation felt more like reading the wiki article on Nen.
I mean no offense in saying this. As I very much enjoy your content. This just didn't feel as natural to you. As if you were not as sure of the info you had.
By limits of his potential why do I feel you're thinking of Kastro's "memory overload" death? Kurapika (and anyone for that matter) could make as many abilities as they so desire. But it may not make sense to do so. After all, Kurapika's goals are twofold: finding his clan's eyes (dowsing chain) and destroying the spiders. If he wanted he could make more abilities but considering how he shortcutted his way to power in the first place, he may not deign to do so.
Also Kastro died because he focused more on summoning another clone as opposed to just using gyo so there's not really a hard limit on nen abilities unless the user themselves makes a condition like that
@@Whodjathink It's not about Kastro. But simply the limits of Aura potential. Like how Gon and Killua have potential seen in 1 in 10 million. Kurapika doesn't have that same potential by his own admission. Kastro shows the limits of your inate potential and how far is spreads though and why forcing it into a class you are opposing to ruins your overall growth. You can see how far Gon's was for example when he sacrificed everything to temporarily access his full potential right then. Kurapika has created so many nen abilities as such I feel that with his smaller potential. He likely does not have the room of growth to make any more than he already has.
@@johnsmith5922 Then that room for growth is more tied to his personality than "potential." Potential only really showed us how fast one can learn nen. Kurapika doesn't train nearly as much as Gon or Killua does and its because he feels he can't afford to. Kurapika does himself a disservice by being more focused on his goal than on himself, as evidenced by his own abilities, Izunavi was partially right when he said "It seems to me YOU'RE the one bound in chains"
@@Whodjathink I do get your point. But I feel that what your saying only furthers my point. His singular drive is what helped push him to learn his nen abilities as fast as he can. Even the flashback to the development of the Steal Chain brings about the fact that Izunavi was pressing him on how he developed that chain. At least to me it feels like it was guiding him due to a limit of how many he could make. The fact he made as many as he did should also suggest a limit since if he had more room for growth with his drive. He would have made even more abilities. Since he clearly had another idea he wanted to use instead of the Steal Chain. I think he made the limit he realistically could within that 6 months before he threw himself at the Troupe.
@@johnsmith5922 You're not wrong, since he wanted that one mafia mission before he learned nen. So I feel it's less to do with "potential" and more to do with use of time. In this case it's very similar to Kastro. His clone wasn't actually a bad idea, but given he only had 2 years to get himself up to Hisoka(who was already a monster in his own right) he "wasted his talent and effort" in doing something outside of his field of expertise. Like if I was a barbecue chef and suddenly decided I wanted to make a delicious sushi for a food competition in 2 months, my time would have been better spent perfecting my own craft before I branched out. Kurapika's use of chains is the same. He wanted(or felt he needed) that power ASAP, which is why his conditions are so strict in the first place. You may be right in that he learns slower than Gon and Killua(since Kurapika also didn't want to listen to his own trainer unless it benefited him lol) but his insistence on quick power is what made him do what he did.
I feel if Kurapika wanted, he could make another set of chains on his left hand, but since Conjurers have to really think about the powers they give their items, he really wouldn't have had the free time to do so, since he's almost always on the hunt
17:34: Common Myth that you fell for,
mate.
Leoreo isnt opening a Portal and punching through it:
It's all a bit fast but if you actually look at it,
he definetly and surely created a Nen-Beast.
An arm-shaped and arm-coloured Nen-Beast.
This many-meters-long Thing is definetly not his real arm, that's sure.
I think you're a bit off also. It's more so like he's warping a punch through a wormhole and sends the punch wherever he desires, being he's an emitter
I just started watching Hunter x Hunter so this video is gonna help a lot
Its a great series! Watched it 2 or 3 times myself. Enjoy!!
thank you for not spoiling (almost) anything!!
A quick question: According to Hisoka’s personality assessment, which Nen affinity do you think you would most likely have?
Conjurer most likely
Same xD
According to Hisoka's assessment I'm a Manipulator.
Emitter all the way
Specialist for me, but I couldn't think of an ability since this type is so "unique and unknown"
Lmao the hexagon explaining the nen types
Great video, but it’s a common misconception that Kurapika can only use his chains on the Phantom Troupe. However, he can use his chains on people and things other than the Phantom Troupe. The only ability he can’t use on anyone or anything else is Chain Jail, which binds and restricts movement
Already know how nen works but always nice to hear other ppl talk about. HxH is so good people always sleep on it and when I tell them to watch it they agree that it’s one of the best these seen. Also nen is one of the if not the best concept in terms of power systems I think.
hunter x hunter >>>>>>> naruto
I think you did the best out of any Nen explanation video I’ve seen in recent memory
Franklin is an Emmiter he shoots his aura in a bullet shape form, he doesn't conjure bullet like objects.
I have a question. Suppose a person has an infinite amount of nen and can output an endless amount of it. In that case, does this mean that this individual can do anything, using any abilities and creating weapons that would make them invincible without any restriction in the hunterxhunter verse?
Well...no. they would still be limited by their nen afinity... an enhancer would be a bad at conjuring etc...
But there's exceptions I guess.
Also nen abilities are stronger with restrictions.
Random but I remember when I first watched Hunter Hunter and they explained Zetsu. I immediately thought of how Zetsu from Naruto was kind of the lowkey, quiet, spy for the akatsuki. Zetsu can mean to suppres in Japanese. Thought it was a cool parallel!
Take a shot every time Nick says "Aura"
Charismatic but never actually wanting to get close to anyone. Relatable. I think that’s my affinity.

this is anime meta
Wait guys did you know bungie gum has the properties of both rubber and gum
the nen system seems to be inspired by dungeons and dragons. look it up, nen categories mimic schools of magic or psionic manifestation almost 1 to 1. wouldn't surprise me though, dnd was super popular in japan in the 80s and 90s.
Thank you for doing this 😂 I love Nen! And your videos. I clicked so fast LMAO
Edit: more Nen coverage!! & You'd probably be a conjurer maybe? You explain big concepts well so I'd say you're analytical lol
hey Nick, you know what the dragons in naruto/boruto are about ? like there is Kirin, Nagato’s gedo statue awakening after Yahiko gets killed, sagemode kabuto’s blinding jutsu, in boruto when konohamaru summons the next monkey sage they face a dragon demon. just seems cool how theres so many and would be nice if they were connected in any way
YES! Been waiting on this one!!!
all affinities can turn in to a specialist later, conjurers and manipulators just have the highest chance
People dont die from not controlling their aura, they dont even faint. The injuries they sustained in the fight, combined with giving off their aura making them weak, kills them.
Also mixed the two different schools of nen together.
Part 2 would be absolutely awesome
Netero lived so long because of the nitro rice he consumed on his journey to the dark continent, not just ten.
I love Hunter X Hunter, and Naruto, your content is exactly all the stuff I love keep up the great vids
This is officially my favorite video you’ve made.
Dips into a sensory deprivation chamber during a massive assault "oh man my techniques are going to be so strong while I'm still sane"
Loved this, definitely wanna see more HunterXHunter content! Also you’d probably be a special type with an ability similar Chrollo’s
Hunter x Hunter has always been my favorite because of the story and the power structure. It makes a ton of sense and I love that matchups and skill determine the winner, not overall raw power like DBZ. I’m down to watch any Hunter videos since we don’t have more content.
Togashi is apparently the only One who encouraged 'fan-made Hatsu' and i saw
not a single HxH-TH-camr ever do so
listining to this while reading all of the 5e dnd cleric subclasses
I always wanted somebody to do a Nen explain video and I’m glad that you just do it because I like how you do videos and yes I am a naruto fan
