And today we are having Redraw Cat Meme challenge with the one and only, Kitty Killua
Yissss
I am back people
With more Kitty Killua cat memes
Oh yes
Just another day with another set of Kitty Killua memes
Ok that’s all for the Kitty memes yes this is the last part I promise 🤣
Oh damn it’s International cat day! Here ya go people #faceyourart hahahahaha 16 shades of Kittyllua
killua (thinking about gon)
older kirugon (except that gon grew taller)
HOLY SHIT i did NOT know you were active lmao
I just wanted to say I love your stuff, your flustered kitty Killua and your cocky, knows-exactly-what-he's-doing Gon, and especially your killugon marriage stuff ❤ Whenever I think of them aged up, your Killugon is what I think of!
Hello! I tend to reply late on Tumblr coz I use Instagram and Twitter more, but pls know that your post really made my day and thank you for your support ❤️ There is really nothing more heartwarming to an artist than knowing people enjoying my creations!
They’re all gonna do a group hug uwu
(Based on the Piper Perri meme)
My hxhbb2021 entry for Peachiinari’s “Dancing in a Garden of Moss (With You Between My Arms)” - When the artist fell in love with his creation, literally. As you can see, a lot of Monet and Debussy going on
Once again happy birthday catboi. And thank you @hxhbb2021 for hosting
Hello and good day! Can you please draw Alluka slightly taller than Killua (2-3 inches) and she teases him for this? Calls him "little brother" and puts his chocorobos on high shelves and he has to ask for her help. Thank you for considering my request! Just thought it'd be funny and adorable!
Okay I’m a big fan of taller Alluka! She would definitely try to tease Killua for fun in a very sweet and playful way.
Hi! I love your account so so much! I have a question regarding gon regaining his nen. Ging said there would be a "punishment/penalty". Does that mean there would be imposed limitations or is the penalty physical damage?
Thank you anon, I love you too!
I thought for sure I had a post on this already, but tumblr search is not cooperating… Anyway here’s the exact translation for what Ging says, Liz @hunterxhell has it as usual:
ging uses 罰/bachi, which means like punishment/curse but like coming from a higher power, ie “karma will bite you”. i would translate this as “there’ll be hell to pay”.
https://hunterxhell.tumblr.com/post/177325514147/i-feel-like-the-english-tl-loses-a-bit-of-nuance
I think it means he can get his nen back, but there will be a cost. Honestly it sounds like a nen cost to me… Gon broke his nen contract (a contract with “a higher power” if you will) by living after the battle with Pitou, when he said he’d give up “everything.” When you break a nen contract there’s an associated punishment, usually your life.
In this case, Nanika reversed the curse on Gon that was the consequence of him breaking his contract. She broke the laws of nen to do that, which took an enormous amount of energy. In HxH world it’s like breaking the laws of physics.
***
It’s actually possible that Ging is wrong (or lying) about the “cost” for Gon to get his nen back, BTW. It wouldn’t be the first time that Ging warned Gon to only get involved with Hunter stuff if he was actually serious…This could be similar to when he left the tape and ring about Greed Island, maybe it’s his way of encouraging Gon to stay home and really think about how much he wants this.
Assuming Ging is wrong (or lying) about the cost… it’s possible that Alluka already paid the cost for the broken contract; and the reason Gon doesn’t have nen right now is because Killua said to “heal Gon” and Nanika interpreted that in a literal way, and restored him to “normal” so right now Gon is “normal” i.e. he doesn’t have nen.
Maybe someone who knows Japanese can look up what Killua says in that panel… like does “heal” mean “restore” or something in Japanese… bc there’s a lot of stories about djinn or genies (and Nanika is a bit like a genie, an entity that can grant wishes) interpreting your requests in a literal way, so you have to be careful about how you phrase them.
***
If there is still a cost to pay, it could be something like how Kurapika has to give up his lifespan to use Emperor Time….except we already saw that once with Gon-san (where he gave up his life/potential for power now) and I don’t know if Togashi would repeat himself like that. It’s also possible that Gon will have to see a nen exorcist, and pay whatever the cost is for the exorcism before he can get his nen back… since that’s the normal way to lift a nen curse in HxH world.
Before, none of the Hunter Association nen exorcists had the power to lift Gon’s curse, because it was so extreme… Maybe even Nanika didn’t have the power to fully reverse the consequences of Gon’s decision, so there’s still a cost left for him to pay?
I wrote a little bit about nen contracts and Alluka’s powers before BTW, here’s the post if you’re interested:
https://subdee.tumblr.com/post/617297191031242752/mobiuslake-subdee-replied-to-your-post-hey
The short version of that is that in HxH world, when you take out a “loan” by getting power in advance there’s a huge associated cost that you end up paying later. Gon got a lot of power out of his contract, so there was a huge cost to pay afterward. Then he dodged the cost, because of Nanika. Either she’s totally paid it off, and he could start training again; or there’s still some residual curse left that he’ll have to break the normal way.
Anyway, to sum this up… I don’t know XD it is a mystery. Also, it’s Togashi :P He could just invent something new next week (month, year, decade, whatever) to keep us guessing. I do think that if Gon shows up in the manga again, he’ll get his nen back… because while HxH values balance, family, domestic things, etc more than your usual shounen, it would be kind of a boring manga if Gon just stayed on Whale Island doing his math homework.
Thanks for the ask!!!!
Reblogging bc I found the post I wrote on this before:

Gotta keep your own stuff organized yourself, tumblr definitely won’t help you find it LOL.
Killua asked to heal quite literally using the verb “naosu”, I guess that there was no misinterpretation and Alluka paid the cost herself. It’s not definite but I wanted to add my 5 cents. Amazing meta as always.
Thank you @gallyl !!!!
What’s interesting is that it does have that secondary meaning of “fixing” or putting back how it was… So it could be “healing” the way you “heal” a computer program by rolling back the version updates LOL, and not the way the body would heal itself by growing new cells.
In this theory Nanika “heals” by going back to the last build version that worked, so now we get Gon as he was before the problem occurred… the problem in this case being the nen curse. So since his nen is the problem, we get Gon the way he was before he got nen???
I know I’m just speculating, but honestly it would make sense that Nanika heals this way, because it’s not a human being… To heal the way the body does you’d need an understanding of how the body works, right? You’d have to understand the problem to undo it. This doesn’t require a deep understanding, just the ability to manipulate space and time.
Yes, they are in love.

A masterpost on Togashi’s gay subtext and why it’s intentional.
Hi ! After seeing so many posts about Togashi dropping subtext about Killua’s possible romantic feelings for Gon, I thought it’d be a good idea to make a sort of “masterpost” with all the subtext that Togashi has included into his work.
I usually see a lot of people trying to say that HxH isn’t about romance and that Togashi isn’t interested in writing romance into the manga, but when you analyze all the subtext that’s been going on the further Gon and Killua’s relationship progresses, I think it’s incorrect to say that Togashi has never hinted at the possibility of romance in HxH.
This is going to be a long post, enjoy your read!
Also, please note that I will only base this analysis on the manga, so there can be no mistake that “maybe this is just something the anime made gayer” : i want to prove that the subtext is 100% intentional on Togashi’s part.
I’d also like to mention, although I will analyze it further after listing the subtext, that Togashi is a VERY smart man. There are always little details in the story and/or foreshadowing that are easily missed at first but when you notice them, it truly makes you understand how much attention and care Togashi puts into his work. There are countless details and symbolism that are analyzed daily through wonderful meta posts, from the main 4′s birthdays and their link to their character or the religious symbolism in Kurapika’s story arc…. Togashi loves to foreshadow and plant little details into his work, so when Togashi plants subtext, I’m sure he 100% knows that he’s writing it, and it can’t be seen as unintentional.
I’ll also link all my references for this post at the end of it, so feel free to read all the additional textposts and content if you want to know more.
Well, let’s get into it!
EDIT : i can’t believe this post is still being used as a reference it makes me so happy… thank you so much !!! i edited this to tweak it a bit because i wrote this a while ago and the phrasing seemed off to me, so if you’re reading or re-reading this post, hi, welcome to masterpost on gay subtext 2.0 !
Keep reading
and just like that, they lived happily ever after
