Chimera Ant is such a robust and tight bundle of themes and symbols. All these years later, the depth of it still blows my mind. Thanks for yet another wonderful tribute to one of the most resplendent and complete stories out there.

Togashi is a next-level writer. I think he nurtured a 'Fledgling Artist' card from Greed Island. I mean seriously. He made his own alphabet, a complex card game, and then he just goes and makes 3d shogi then relates it to the events of the latter half of the arc. We may never see another like him.

Not to say something hyperbolic, but I swear this video has changed how I view stories straight up. I like to pick up on narrative or thematic resonances in a story and this video visualizes that resonance in an evoking way. I was re-watching Kaguya-Sama after having finished reading the manga and I swear I started to get flashes of future and past scenes in my head like they show up in this video lolol

This is so insane I can't believe it only has 20k views. You have hit the nail on the head for so many through lines in this arc, making the gungi scenes far more impactful than I ever thought they were. I always assumed it was just a plot device to change merum and introduce komugi, but little did I know there was meaning to each match the whole time.

I'm still left wondering if there's any significance to the pieces used beyond marshal (king). Does spy represent Kumogi? Do they perchance move in a way that's similar to her? Also my Japanese knowledge is limited but aren't shinobis ninjas? I just finished episode 135 and I knew there had to be some symbolism in there since the writing in this story was brilliant and they allotted a substantial amount of screen time for these moves, so it just left me with this curiousity which you've most graciously fullfilled. Now all that's lingering is the names of the pieces 🫠
@Dougurasufilm
@Dougurasufilm 8 ай бұрын
​@@AAAEA010 The Spy definitely represents Komugi. That's what the cuts at 5:04 are about. Welfin says "Komugi" and you see the Spy chess piece (which I translated on screen for clarity ;) ). The 'spy' translation comes either from the manga source I read or the anime source I watched, not 100% sure. But the idea is that she wiggled her way into the battle and defeated his ant side and embraced his human side. Shinobi apparently literally means 'one who sneaks'. But I guess Spy could've been an Americanization to make it more clear? Not sure :o Also the part where "The Spy has done nothing this entire game and now controls the board" was taken from an earlier episode, but it's definitely linking to the fact that Komugi has been doing nothing but play board games, and all of a sudden she has taken the King's heart and basically 'defeated' him, while not having any offensive powers at all. The names of the other pieces are also kind of interesting, but the links aren't that clear. For example there is a New Bow/New Archer used in the same episode that gives Cheetuh a a crossbow. Probably intentional, but I most of these aren't one to one, and I doubt it needs to be. Just like how Gon and Meruem have extremely similar sitting poses it isn't in our face, because we RARELY get the same camera angle of them sitting (I think that's the same in the manga). Most of these symbolic meanings aren't pushed in our face and are really kinda obfuscated. It's a little imperfect, but I guess that gives more room for more interesting interpretations. Thanks though!! It's also hard to break through with videos XD At least my Palace Invasion in Real Time blows up every once in a while :b

That really is my leading mission o.o There is so much information out there that is conveyed in just someone talking over images of the anime in question. But it's way more interesting to let someone watch something and make the connection themselves. Of course with my edits I'm making the connections more obvious, but the realisation how some things were set up in the anime do come from the viewer. And also I like people to engage with the video on a meta level. Like stop and rewind, go through things frame by frame, make them active watchers instead of passive ones.

Well not gonna lie, when I watched it for the first time I only like... scraped the iceberg. I was like some of that could be... metaphorical. But didn't really pay that much attention to it, until I saw other videos about that. So at some point I just found as much videos about this as possible, of people finding this stuff, and some of the symbolism I realized myself (like the beginning with the heroes beating so many of the ants or Netero asking the King's name and Komugi's hesitation and then striking). So in short, lotta research on other people's findings, adding some of my own and then in the end trying to think of a way for this all to make sense visually in one edit :)

Thank you! I'm always critical of myself, so i feel like some things could've been done better. Like the first shot that compares Gon's and Meruem's sitting pose, I feel like that could've been done better, but I couldn't figure out how. As for Gon-Pitou... no, I mean not really. I really would like to make something about Attack on Titan and how everytime Eren breaks out of a cage there's a whole new cage until he finally finds out he's in the biggest cage of them all, fate and time itself, a future that he cannot change. But they really need to finish AoT for that o.o And I need to rewatch all of it. I think there are many levels of cages present in his life that he breaks through and I think that would be an interesting video... but we'll have to see.

@@Dougurasufilm Being critical of yourself is what allows you to make videos like these (better than other people's). The fact that they sit the same way is interesting but I think the strange thing is the fact that Gon no longer appears before or after; it seems out of place. Regarding Gon-Pitou, in the manga there is a scene that made me think of symbolism ie: At the beginning of the story Gon enters the forest and the mother bear, in order to defend the cub, attacks him but Kite kills the mother bear by cutting off her head and wants to kill the cub too, but Gon intervenes and makes sure that the cub is saved (he feels sorry for him). If Kite and Gon are considered as one person, it could be compared to Pitou, then: the mother bear (Kite) to defend the cub (Gon) fights with Kite (Pitou), but Kite (Pitou) cuts off his head. Kite (Pitou's rational part) would like to kill Gon to defend the king but at the same time Gon (Pitou's sentimental part) is sorry. This symbolism is strange but I like it because it originates at the beginning of the story. However, I'm sure the one on AoT will be good too.

@@robbe1534 that sounds like not a lot to base a video on though. Also I think the similarities between Gon and Meruem are bigger. They are sitting the same way so the audience knows to compare them. Meruem for example is turning more like a person near the end while Gon descends into darkness and becomes perhaps more like an ant (or at lesat more evil and callous). When Netero says "He's wavering" in my video he's talking about both Meruem and Gon. Meruem's change of side or change in alignment is also signaled by him beginning the story using black Gungi pieces and after his revival using white Gungi pieces (which I tried to make clear halfway the video with the piece that turns from black to white, immediately followed by a close up of Meruem using a white piece). Anyway. I might one day come back to Hunter x Hunter, but I don't think Pitou-Gon has enough meat on the bone to make a video about.

@@Dougurasufilm I agree about the similarities between Gon and Meruem, but I still think that in the video of Komugi and Meruem are a bit out of place (Gon is stopped by Killua otherwise he would not have wavered with Komugi and Pitou). It's also true that there isn't much about Gon and Pitou. Honestly, I don't like AoT but maybe with your video I will appreciate it more.

@@robbe1534 what do you mean you still think? :o you started off saying you didn't know how it could've been done better? I was the one saying I wasn't completely happy with it XD But the comparison is still relevant I think. While Gon is descending, Meruem is rising and that is a big theme of the whole arc. Who are actually the bad guys etc? I felt that parallel was important to this video.

What an insane video… It boggles my mind how one single man can come up with a story like this. I now know why Togashi suffers from back pain… it’s because his spine got worn out by carrying this enormous brain every day

Does anyone remember which episode was she said "I came up with that move kokoriko" (amazing exlanation btw. at first time I watch the anime, I didn't connect dots. My eye opener was Gon/Meruem and Killua/Pitou paralels.You nailed this video)

The most important theme in the chimera ant arc, in my opinion, was "what is humanity and what makes someone a monster?" With every step, Meruem and Gon slowly cross the line in oopposite directions over the course of the arc. This of course makes the arc a bit of a palindrome with the two biggest tragedies in the arc happening at the beginning and end of the arc. Those being the death of Kite and Meruem. I can't help but wonder what Meruem would have become and been able to do for the world if his humanity and sympaty had been allowed to fully blossom, but unfortunately, this was the best possible ending thematically. This question will have to be answered through the survivng chimera ants.
