| Would this be for better or worse? I think it is a very interesting prospect but if the tight friendship with Killua was included their age might have to change. Yusuke would be a pro enhancer! |

| Nah, YYH in general was cliche and the characters were typical. Gon on the other hand is the most unique out of all the battle shonen heroes we see today. The main difference is that he's actually a good, well-developed character :P And crazy. |

Mikasa said: Gon on the other hand is the most unique out of all the battle shonen heroes we see today. The main difference is that he's actually a good, well-developed character :P I disagree. While his development is good, he still has that "hyper" attitude, which is a shounen cliché. Anyways, I don't think Killua meshes well with a delinquent turned spirit detective. Killua needs a naïve idiot whom he can literally smack with a harisen... i.e. Gon |

Yes but other than that... I mean he acts all hyper just like everyone else only to have his ass kicked, that's what's unique...he ins't wanked either. I mean he was alll like...screw zoldycks...I'll just climb the wall...10 minutes later he craps his pants when he sees Mike xD Before that he's like oh ya...hanzo is strong but i'm fast....and boom.. he gets K'd TFO Anyways, I don't think Killua meshes well with a delinquent turned spirit detective.

But I do see Gon being unique in the aspect of being a loser, and it sucks; I actually didn't like him before. But it makes the growth more appreciable. And, he actually makes mature decisions later on, and it makes him manly :) |

And, he actually makes mature decisions later on, and it makes him manly :) Yes but making reckless decisions only to end up powering up and winning anyway like for example naruto/luffy is kinda stupid...he's mroe realistic. His recklessness, while might help him win people over in a realistic way, doesn't give him any out-of-nowhere strength to beat his enemies. I always hated MCs because they ruin the show, they're always predictable and in Shonen it's the worst. We get it, he's gonna win, he'll kick ass, wow what a surprise -_- I pretty much know what will happen and how the story will end. All because of that typical shonen hero. In HxH...nope. He even loses and doesnt hold a grudge against the winner, Killua is always superior in strength and he doesn't try to out-do him. That's one of the reasons why I like him the most out of Shonen MCs :P |

| I think HxH would have a wholly different vibe to it if Yusuke was the main character. Yusuke worked in YYH not because he was just the typical head-strong main character, if anything he was actually the punk with a heart of gold. Most of the time his stubbornness stemmed from his immaturity as a delinquent, and every time he realized that he actually worked even better. I wouldn't exactly say that HxH would've been better if it had Yusuke as its main character, but I would definitely say that it'd feel a whole lot different. |

| Guys watch out for the spoilers :P HxH as well as OP xD |
| End Zionazism |
| If that happened then it wouldn't be as great and I wouldn't love it as much as I do now. Not bashing Yusuke, but Gon's personality & traits and him being the MC is a huge part of what makes HXH special. |
Celastias said: stop derailing my beautiful thread BAKA >.< also the only thing that would come with yusuke to HxH would be his personality he would experience the storyline in Gon's place so how would he react to 1. Hisoka 2. servant girl in zoldyck arc Etc On to the topic itself haha, I honestly wouldn't know how the series would turn out if Yusuke was our MC in this series. A lot of the development Gon goes through in the series is that he's only a small fish in a big pond even though he's one talented fish. Yusuke is like that to some extent but he doesn't care and just wants to kick ass of whoever wants to wreak havoc in the human world. It's not Yusuke's fault he is like that but replacing Gon with Yusuke in the various arcs; the story lines would've ended COMPLETELY different is all I can say |
| Gon is abnormal protaganist for a shounen series...He uses people as bait...He almost thought of using his friends as bait...Plenty of people died in front of him and didn't even bother trying or thinking of saving them...He's selfish big time. He rather go with his instincts than follow some sort of plan...but he only does this in moments of curiosity or battling with is weaknesses...Gon is definitely not a loser...He just has a long way to go before he could be a head hancho...=[] |
| It won't work, remember there are no other kids on Whale Island, Yusuke can't be a punk. And there's no one to kiss in order to revive him xD "Yusuke, your dad is alive" "Who gives a shit, I don't care" Life goes on. Simple :P |
| then it would be hunter x hunter with yusuke |
| Well I knew Mikasa was an idiot from other hunter x hunter threads but this is simply hilarious. |

The main difference is that he's actually a good, well-developed character :P And crazy. Haha, that last line gave me a good laugh. Anyway, I like Gon because of how he verges on Blue and Orange Morality sometimes. His views on what's right and wrong are distorted. He's a very interesting character overall. We get a glimpse of his weirdness right after he meets Killua and hears about his assassin's background. He doesn't even care, and end up making Kil laugh. |

| Yuusuke sorta gets distorted morals near the end of YYH too... (basically why the first spirit detective says he scares her.) and you might say his priorities were already slightly off because of how much more he cared about a good fight than saving the world. But overall Gon's more of a freak. (from start to finish~...not that HxH has ended or anything.) |
| Just gonna go ahead and say Natsu and Ichigo are easily the most unique shounen protagonists regardless of how much development they have or how bland they are. Development doesn't have a hand in how unique a character is. |

| He'd do alot of things differently and I'd enjoy his character more than Gon. Tho in a way we already have Yusuke 2.0 which is Gon's father ironically. |

Development doesn't have a hand in how unique a character is. Natsu!? Most definitely. Although all the shounen MCs are unique and I don't really think any two are that similar. In terms of development, though. I'd have to give that one to Naruto. |

| I thought this thread get resurrected because of the new manga materials...where yusuke 2.0 seems to be taking over as the main character spot |

| Well, I like Yusuke more as a character but I don't think he'd do too well in the HxH world. Just think about all the planning and stealth that went on in the Chimera Ant Arc alone. Yusuke would probably just run out there and start shooting. |
| Yusuke would've died pretty early like in YYH, except he would not be reborn in a spirit world, but would stay rotting away in the earth. |
 |
| Then HunterxHunter as we know it would not exist. The entire show, as wells as its individual arcs, is built around Gon's character and the change he goes through. Switching him out with Yusuke would result in a radically changed show, as in its present form it wouldn't really work with Yusuke as the protagonist. |

| Yusuke as MC = masterpiece .... i never liked Gon because of his typical shounen trait .......many times i'm like "Oh! god , he's gonna spout some shounen crap again" and i'm always right . Yusuke also has those typical character traits but he is badass . Gon is so self centered!!. |
| No announcement on thread clean? |

| Gon is Gon Ging is Yusuke And this is what Don Freecss would look like: |

| Then we would have an assassin and a delinquent as best friends. ......ok, I'm sending Togashi an email right now to set up a meeting. |
