Phantom troupe police chase:D! I've been wanting to do this for a good while now and i finally got around to doing it, i thought it would be fun to put the phantom troupe into like a cliche bank robbery police chase thing. Gosh this took so long my fingers hurt (⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠_⁠_⁠_⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠-̩̩̩⁠), but I'm very proud with how this turned out!

Well, I'm a little scared(?) to publish this post, but I really want to share my thoughts. Please don't hate me for this.

And if you have any thoughts or other theories about this, I'd be happy to read them.(And I also really love receiving comments)

I would like to talk about Kikyo Zoldyck.(Art not mine)

First of all, let me say that I am in no way trying to justify Kikyo. I just want to try to look at it from a different perspective. And also the fact that since she, like the entire Zoldyck family(family itself and members as different personalities(Except Killua and Illumi)), is not revealed. So almost everything I write here is just my thoughts and assumptions based on what we know.

Kikyo is broken by the system she is in (Before she came into the family, she wasn't even a fully formed personality. Let me remind you, she gave birth to Illumi at 18). As we know, the Zoldyck family is absolutely patriarchal. But she, as a woman in a patriarchal family, has no influence. Especially if we look at Silva's behavior, we can conclude that he is a kind of dictator in his family. Also, as far as all we know about her past is that she's from Meteor City. We can conclude that it wasn't easy for her there. And when she married Silva, I'm sure it got even worse for her, because we all remember well what terrible things are considered the norm for the Zoldycks. Her tantrums are an attempt to create the illusion of influence that she never had. She gave birth to 5 children while being incredibly thin(47kg with height 170 cm), and pregnancy is a VERY complicated process. After Killua leaves Silva's room, we see that despite outwardly accepting his son's choice, he still believes he has power over him and is confident that he will return and become the next patriarch. I think the Zoldyck family broke her in a way.

A few more thoughts on her relationship with Silva. I think that over time she developed Stockholm syndrome towards him. I think so because there is no indication on her part that she secretly hates him or despises his methods. Now I will try to explain. As I mentioned, she gave birth at 18. 18 is the age of majority, yes, she was no longer a child. However, with the advent of adulthood, you only age by a year, and along with the status of "adult", you do not gain experience. So Kikyo didn't even have time to live a free life as an adult and, barely losing her "minor" status, got married and gave birth to a child. Early marriage is a problem in general and in any case traumatic. Especially in a family like Zoldyck's, which, in addition to being radically patriarchal, also raises murderers and trains children, beating them with all.

I repeat that I am not excusing her. I'm just suggesting you look at her situation. I in no way blame Killua for hating her and I wouldn't force him to look at her differently. It's just that we, as viewers, have that opportunity. I suggest using it.
