So recently I thought "Hey HxH 2011 has finished, I'll watch the original for now." and from what friends of mine told me that I would enjoy it. Which I am but I just don't like Gon, I he's just too amazing, every shounen has the super awesome protagonist but Gon seriously. Maybe I'm not versed enough in anime to appreciate him but meh, and fan boys can hate me for voicing my opinions 10 episodes in, but I need an honest answer. Will Gon become a less annoying perfect wonder boy, or was I right to disdain him?

Your complaint makes no logical sense to be honest? How is he perfect? He's the most flawed main character in these adventure series.

Maybe the idea of a kid being clever and intuitive intimidating coming from the norm for shonen protagonist to be all about fighting with powerups and will power.
He's one of the very few MCs who actually lose battles and never do you see the author trying to forcefully glorify him.

So... IDK

Hmm okay I agree "perfect" was the wrong word to use, but now literally 2 episodes later I find him annoying. But if he's more flawed, then I'll let him develop more. Also I like the cleverness, but this intuition of his is like 'rdm'ing on GMOD TTT until you kill all the traitors

Once you understand what a hunter is meant to be his character will make sense

i also don't like him . I hate every MC who sympathizes with enemy . Why the fuck would you care about enemy .. you should just rip of their heart , detach their head from their body like Killua ..

Gon is just self righteous bastard .

Saying he is just a kid won't help you win the argument , because kid's job is to cry .

So how did we find this thread from two years ago? By this time OP either finished or dropped the anime.

Let's hope he has a microwave, then.

Yeah, he is kind of a Mary Sue. I wish they would have given him more flaws. He only has two, stubbornness and bad at book lernin’.

Haha yeah it's been a while since I started this thread, I ended up begrudgingly finishing the original anime. I don't think I'll ever finish HxH 2011.

Gon is one of the most flawed characters but for some reason I also don't particularly like him.
