Throughout the entire story, the true protagonist Gon is looking to find one of the most powerful hunters in the world, his father Ging. It turns out, Ging's student saved Gon on numerous occasions and is also an intensely powerful hunter. That young man? Is Kite.

Kite is very very shy. At first he lived by himself, poor, hanging out with dogs and horses in the sewers. He becomes very in love with the idea of nature preservation, and hates taking the lives of innocent animals. He's originally the person to investigate the idea of a mysterious beast known as the Chimaera Ants.

Kite is a conjurer, and an interesting one at that. Kite summons a slot machine, which rolls numbers 1-9, and that number corresponds to a different weapon. He relies solely on luck to get a decent weapon to use, whether it be a gun or a large scythe. In fact, his rarest number can only be pulled if the weapon senses he's very afraid of dying. This super ability actually saves Kite's soul, making him immortal.



Very neat dude. While he technically dies to Pitou, one of the three royal guards of the chimaera ant king, she is able to revive as a young woman. Her power is now even scarier.

There is no character in Hunter x Hunter proven necessarily to be as strong as Meruem. He never legitimately lost a fight, and honestly, he never came close to losing one either. Meruem is the Chimaera Ant King.

Hundreds of humans were eaten, their life forces all combined made stronger ants, who hunted insanely strong humans, where thousands of those meals were harvested, to make insanely strong ants, who then were able to kill hundreds of hunters, the strongest of the strong, which when all combined made Meruem. This is the pinnacle of evolution. His tail could whip people's heads off that otherwise were massive threats to general fighters, and it could happen in miliseconds. Calling Meruem a genius is unfair, because his intelligence was well beyond that. Within hours he defeated all of Earth's best players in Chess and other games, except one human, a blind woman. He, even up to his death, never could defeat her.

Meruem evolved overtime. He was an absolutely heartless killer capable of nothing but despair. He valued only getting stronger and not seeing a point to anything that was capable of surviving agains tall odds. As time goes on, he becomes more and more human, not just defending a weak blind woman, but sparing humanity. In his time of dying, he's as human as it gets, valuing love, friendship, and hey here's a thought - non aneurysm inducing hobbies over simply being stronger and smarter. His emotional development may have changed everyone's perception of him, as he was previously only known for his tremendous power; however, it can be said he was in his best and most sacred form when he changed focus.

Meruem is a specialist. He can use literally every type of Nen, and better than anyone else. He can transmorph his body in anyway he chooses. He has over genius intellect. He's stupidly durable. He's just... OP.

To see his most amazing fight, watch Meruem vs. Netero. The fight lasts about 50 minutes. It's... incredible.

And so are you Diamond. Great job today, friend.

Bisky is a 2 star (the 2nd best) type of treasure hunter who loves gems and jewelry. She's sneaky in that she pretends to be a tiny young beautiful girl, but she's actual a monstrously powerful 57 year old brawler.

Bisky in the story is responsible for training the two main protagonists. And she just flat out kicks ass.



As for her useless ability, she's a transmuter who summons a masseuse named Cookie-chan. Cookie-chan basically can only give massages, exfoliate skin, alleviate constipation, etc.

Kurapika is the last remaining member of a clan called the Kurta. His clan was hunted and killed for their rare eyes, which change to scarlet in color when they are highly emotional.

Kurapika knows that the phantom troupe is responsible for killing off all his family and friends, and his entire life purpose is to defeat the phantom troupe and acquire all his clans eyes. He's an avenger.

Kurapika's ability is absolutely insane because it's power is very specific which allows it to be very insane. Kurapika is typically a conjurer, who makes invisible chains to hold people. HOWEVER, Kurapika has made a "deal with the devil" per say, when Kurapika's eyes to crimson, he becomes a specialist, allowing him to use literally every type of power. The deal? He can only use his insane powers against phantom troupe members, else a blade placed next to his own heart will stab him.

Enjoy his badassery!

Look familiar haha? Yeah I have a set of him.

Netero is the chairman of the hunter association. He spent his "youth" (his late 40s) in the mountains praying every day in gratitude for the gifts that martial arts gave him. As far as humans go, he was the absolute most phenomenal fighter primarily because he could call upon Guanyin, which is a buddhist Bodhisattva (yes that's partly why I'm named this) to fight with him via prayer.

Netero however is defeated by Meruem (sort of), though he ends the fight with a self-sacrifice. Ironically, Meruem says he was in "checkmate" from the beginning, which is funny because I'm a chess player.

Phinks is a phantom troupe member, a gang of thieves and assassins. Of the 13 phantom troupe members, he's #2 in physical strength. Really #1 since Uvogin, aka Skulfuk in this case, is dead.

Phinks is short-tempered, ruthless, has a tendency to get in conflicts with people, but is very loyal.

Phinks is an enhancer, meaning he himself uses his fists and whatnot to get the job done. His special power is ripper cyclotron, which means everytime he winds his shoulder up, his punch gets stronger. Exponentially.



tl;dr - he fucks shit up with his fists.
