[@UltimatePower01]

I want to point out something most get wrong. Ging isn’t a genius in the sense that the moment of getting hit with Leorio’s ability, it told him everything about its applicational uses as a doctor. Ging inferred that way after the fact, since he didn’t learn he wanted to be a doctor until after Gon mentioned it.

[@laquanlucas6953]

He is genius baited Leorio hitting him as saying some irrational thing to proke Leorio. What he said about Gon didn't mean it. Leorio takes the bait that shows Ging is a true hunter who knows how to move his targets.

[@samuraitadpole5459]

Basically he doesn't have the six eyes but sukuna type intelligence

[@Syzygy_Bliss]

Exactly. Ging’s got the capacity to sculpt his nen to mimic how he’s seen other people sculpt their nen (at least for straightforward striking attacks). This comes down to 1) his prodigious capacity to precisely sculpt his nen 2) his genius intellect which he applies to understanding how and why other people are sculpting their nen such that he can reproduce the effect. I think that the whole ability is basically an advanced form of pip-play.

[@deshawnrentie]

Ging 's affinity: yea probably

[@JonCail24]

My theory is that ging purposely avoided developing a hatsu. Maybe a byproduct to that is that he mentally stayed central and never favored an affinity. I bet he doesn’t know his own affinity and probably developed a placebo-type nen ability that he himself isn’t aware of

[@rngesus5465]

Maybe its a nen contract kind of idea. Ging abandons favoring a particular nen affinity as a downside and, in exchange, gains extra proficiency in each of the 5 nen types (excluding the specialist type ofc)

[@zodrac516]

I think that's a really interesting idea, and perfectly plausible too

[@xavmanisdabestest]

That's a great theory. Being a fundamentals perfectionist

Him purposely not being apart of any affinity is an interesting idea, or maybe he can change his affinities 🤔

[@BlitzB102]

Very interesting theory. I was thinking his Hatsu is very general (I make a comment on this thread elsewhere) but this is very plausible because of the options it gives you + how little we actually know about nen. Tserridnich doesn’t have a Hatsu as of now either as an example

[@iron545]

I'm calling it here. Gin is an enhancer, he enhances his brain to gove himself more "nen memory". This is how he copies abilities and notices subtle things like the "doll".

He said tho it's not an ability with which he does the copying. And while it's possible such a thing can be enhanced, it should be noted that we only ever se Emperor-Time 'special-enhance' (as i cal it) Nen-Affinities We know about Komugi and Bill, but what they do is never explained and even then it's seemingly 'weaker'

[@jeanbob1481]

Due to Hisoka describing nen users I believed Ging to be too clever to be an enhancer but Wing is also an enhancer and he ain't a dumbo. Plus Gon is his son and he is an enhancer.

[@Mahad_252]

One of the most telling thing about Ging, personality-wise, is his interaction with Beyond's team. Like the fact he didn't plan the whole No.2 thing or the ton of money he gave out. It was just the first thing that came out of his mouth when he walked in. He ran with it and made it work, establishing both trust and loyalty in the process. And your videos are awesome in any length. I hope you enjoy making them as much as we like watching them!!🎉

[@j-rey-]

A small note: Netero doesn't use conjuration, his weakest affinity, to create his bodhisattva, he uses emission, his second best affinity. The statue is made of pure aura, rather than conjured into physical matter, the same way Razor makes his devils. Non-nen users wouldn't be able to see the statue, unlike how they can see conjured objects. So the rule still stands that you can't just overcome your nen affinity weaknesses by training harder; there is a hard cap of how good you can be with a certain affinity.

[@TheBleachj16]

This is in no way confirmed. We also have seen no evidence of Emitted Nen constructs the way Razor and Netero have done it.

Ging could also potentially have made a restriction to be so talented - maybe not owning a specific hatsu or being able to use an ability once in exchange for freedom of nen or it's mastery.

[@timcontreras]

[@octavianabarrydbrickfan6757]

I do like the idea that Ging has something like a 70% in all affinities

[@laquanlucas6953]

Ging really took the time out and mastered different affinity and home his skill. He has a keen and knack of learning about nen.

[@rngesus5465]

It also fits really well with the section where Ging is 'winning over' each of Beyond's crew members. He demonstrates his mastery as a jack-of-all-trades by 'beating' each crewmate in their own specialty. I think the theory fits really well with the story, especially because we're teased about Ging's possible nen affinity in the same place we get information about some characters falling on a spectrum between nen types.

[@Phantom-y4y]

makes sense if you believe ging is same level of talent as gon. we saw what gon at his peak was capable of just raw strength. Ging is basically 30 year old gon. Huge aura, With naturally more control and just a fuckin genius in general.

[@Tortilla.Reform]

@4:35. You just helped me understand how Netero, a straight Enhancer, can use two of his weakest affinities so well, and I think it’s a neat trick His Hatsu is dependent on how fast he can pray with his hands, and he uses enhancement to Buff his activation if the other 2, aka praying faster

I'd like to think that Ging as a true hunter, has a hatsu that is specific to his area of hunting. It would be super cool to see him as a top nen user without a combat specific hatsu. A morel type ability is a lot more likely for a person like ging, than a techinque like gons or neteros.

[@fushake1]

Ging got so bored of the nen types he created his own

[@Golden284-fan]

I think Ging is the type of person to show Pariston his affinity knowing Pariston would rule that one out, then mock Pariston for not figuring it out, like "what i showed it to you, did you not pick up on me using emission".

[@slevinchannel7589]

I get your thought btu that's too risky

[@cammccauley]

This gave me an idea. What would happen if you conducted a nen pact or restriction like a binding vow to give up your affinity to be able to have unlimited potential. So you’d have a Null type affinity like maybe like having 20% affinity with all affinities (instead of a standard 100% in one and etc) but your ability to grow and keep getting stronger may never max out?

What do you think about Yuri or Shimano being members of Contagion? They wouldn’t be apart of Morena’s contagion game, it would be someone else who reached level 100 and was able to start their own Contagion game. I think that person is Ken’i Wang but it could be anybody. I also think it’s possible that Kaiser is a member of this adjacent contagion game. It would explain why he wants to assassinate the princes (Gain 50 levels). Same with the maids. If I remember correctly, Kurapika told one of them that they were improving in Nen better than anyone else in the class. Why? Possibly because via killing people, Silent Majority is farming levels.

[@hhm4480]

silent majority being connected to morenas gang is a smart way to connect him to the mafia plot

[@MrBoboiscool]

I like him being a base 80% at everything, not as a special case, but because he has the epitome of the spirit of a true hunter so he truly is balanced. If you look at the personality test, he fits pretty much all of them perfectly minus maybe transmuter but even then he is whimsical as hell. If it is just one, I like manipulator, it is the least explored affinity and one of the biggest character inspections we got from him is where he is telling gon that it is about the journey and side quests that make hunting special, not rushing to a destination after he was done logic debating gon about not needing to apologise to him as he didnt do anything to him. Perfect manipulator. I think he will be a specalist though. I love togashi, but he does fall into the trap of making most big characters specalists because it allows for creative freedom

[@slevinchannel7589]

Your random headcanon is very random. He fits them ALL except ransmuterß Helllooo? He had a whole chapter dedicated to him having Transmuter-QUalities, him hiding his Abilities was the whol Plot. While showing NOTHING in terms of Conjruation and Manipulatioon. You got it all backwards?

[@GreenRandom]

Maybe Ging's natural hatsu is something like enhanced empathy, or empathic mimicry. Nen is primary influenced through desire. So if Ging were to fully understand someone's desire, then he would be able to channel that desire into a fitting nen ability.

[@slevinchannel7589]

Then why is he so un-empathatic? Also, WHY 'only Strike-based Nen'?

[@GreenRandom]

@@slevinchannel7589 Ging lacks compassion, not empathy. You can both not be nice and understand how someone feels. Also, Ging never said that he can only mimic strike-based nen. He said that taking a simple strike-type attack once is enough for him to mimic it. That implies that that he is able to mimic more complex nen abilities, it's just harder.

@@GreenRandom Hmm. Fair enough, that IS a sensible interpetation. But you yourself should be aware that this is such a rare Interpretation that i; who has spoken with countless HxH-Fans; never heard this before I want you to be cautious about this, but i like and appreciate your way of thinking outside the Box about Nen - makes me want to hear your (hopefully extenisve) thoughts on MY Nen. I made-up a Hatsu- can i have your Feedback?

[@sophisticatedEnjoyist4102]

My theory : Ging : He is a ruins hunter who explores and restores ruins . He is capable of easily copying any strike type ability (copying is natural ). He is also capable of extending the use cases( but the analysis part I don't believe that this is a natural talent cuz he knows way too much about leorio like how leorio uses ultrasound and nen blasts to destroy tumors) of said ability. He also is able to create hallucination and that never happened . He is also a master at pip play . He is the creator of greed island which requires a ton of hatsus to pull off . He also taught kite and he stated that he taught kite everything about nen and right after he said that kite has a number on his crazy slot that will come up when is adamant about not dying ( meaning he taught this ability to kite as well) . Killua also stated after hearing kite's struggle about finding ging that he has an advanced form of zetsu (likely a result of his ability) So here are the requirements for his ability : -be connected to ruins -help him in analyzing abilities that he has copied -give him access to multiple hatsus -give him ability to revive -make hallucinations -hide himself Thus I present Category : specialization Memory kenesis: Gives ging complete control over memories . He can seperate memories from certain places like ruins i.e: when was it built , how it was destroyed etc . He can read your mind on contact . This explains how he knew the use cases of leorio 's ability and why he needs to make CONTACT and why it can only be a STRIKE type ability . I knkw he stated that it is a natural talent but this just gives him the info but doesn't grant him the actual ability . He has to figure it out from the clues . He can also increase his own memory capabilities which explains his intellect and store the memory of multiple hatsus in objects i.e cards of gred island . He can also take his memories and transfer it to someone else like kite providing himself the ability to revive himself . He can alter memories to create hallucinations . He can also erase the memory of himself from other people's minds . There is also the possibility of him having time travel abilities . Like he can hide himself by travelling to the past. The hallucinations actually happen but he erases the time frame sorta like tsseriednich . He can also slow down time and enhance his thinking speed for analysis of abilities. But it doesn't explain some of the other abilities More clarification :Yes , ging is a naturally talented person and he can probably copy hatsu . But he knows how LEORIO specifically uses the hatsu . Take this analogy for example : Suppose ging was an expert fashion designer so he could recreate your outfit and know all the brands and where they came from just by feeling the fabric . But ging knows when you wore the outfit (use case like using the blast for destroying tumors and ultrasound ) . That means that this is coorelated to his ability Yes using multiple hatsu isn't special but think about the amount of different abilities that were used in greed island . Each spell card was its own hatsu . So it is not whether he could use multiple nen abilities. It was about the sheer quantity. The mind manipulation can have different conditions for nen and non nen users . So he couldn't have used it against beyond's team

[@guilhermesilva-xg7gy]

Specialists don't have 100% effiency on every category, they can however learn them with the same speed. We learn that an enhancer can have more aptitude with one of his adjacent nen type so they can learn that type just as ease as their natural type. That was what Morena was talking about in recent chapter how specialist can learn all other categories, specialist don't have a specific lean to one type, they have a high learning speed to all types making them to develop more easier hybrid nen abilities.

[@user-zz3sn8ky7z]

But as far as I understand, Kurapika's Emperor Time explicitly works exactly that way, doesn't it? We are told his efficiency, strenght and precision in an affinity are specifially what raises to 100%, without affinity restrictions, yet he can still only use the affinity at the proficiency "level" he already knows as a conjurer.

[@guilhermesilva-xg7gy]

@user-zz3sn8ky7z Yes thats ET but remember thats a hatsu not Kurapika in his normal state as specialist. If all specialist were like this Kurapika wouldn't need ET he just need to go escarlet eyes.

[@dice-]

Showed poll recently so I'll copy my comment also here. I think he is "The Special Transmuter" and his "natural talent" of understanding nen, can be explained that his nen like "clay" and allows Ging rebuild nen to mimic any nen affinity to 100% potential but if technique is "pure" nen technique, like gon jajanken, hisoka bungeegum, leorios "stethoscope" punches, razor balls💀 and maybe pouf hypno particles. Idk about conjuration, but if we assume Kite words that Gin helped him to create his Crazy Slots, he definitely understand can somehow mimic others conjuration nen.

[@slevinchannel7589]

[@another-youtube-user]

i think the personality of ging, the definitive characteristic of its character, is that he searches for the unknown, he is the ultimate hunter. i believe his nen ability is a powerful nen pact that allows him to, through his talent, imitate and create new abilities with no affinity restrictions, but he can only use each ability once. he is always on the hunt, always developing himself, not letting others define him.

[@TK-sn3rx]

I've had a few theories about Ging's possible ability/nen type over the years, but I'm probably wrong. I think that he may be able to "enchant" objects with nen, or perhaps with other people's abilities. That may be how the GI cards were made - he has some ability that allows him to take abilities that other people have and place them into an object to be used under certain conditions. I think this theory is strengthened by the fact that Ging left behind a tape for Gon that reacted with his nen to empower the tape player and delete itself even years after the fact. His ability may just be to use his nen for whatever he needs at any given time. A jack of all trades nen user, basically. Theory 2 is that Ging is basically a game master. For example, he may have a deck of cards with multiple abilities that can be accessed through certain conditions. Kite says that Ging helped him develop crazy slots, so I think Ging may have a similarly "random" ability. As for his nen affinity, imo from most to least likely: 1. Specialist/Emitter - I think he fits many of the personality traits from both categories, and being a specialist would make him a huge wildcard, but may be a bit too obvious. 2. Manipulator 3. Transmuter 4. Conjurer 5. Enhancer

With the information we have now, saying Ging is a specialist would be a cop-out (in my opinion ofc) because we don't have a grasp of what his true abilities are, only that he's extremely talented and powerful (like the other top-tier nen users who are specialists). Saying he's a specialist is like saying his ability could be anything that constitutes a "unique effect": imo it's a bs non-answer. I think Ging has some kind of counteractive-type nen ability that stems from his ability to mimic strike-type nen attacks. Ging was only able to expand on Leorio's nen "ability" by palpating his own nen through the wall as an emission type attack. Specifically Ging's natural talent comes into play after being struck by a physical attack (not by copying the ability itself). The only examples of counteractive nen abilities that we've seen so far are from Feitan's Rising Sun and Camila's Cat Nen Beast (Its her actual ability, not the guardian spirit beast which might have a different ability). But there's probably some more counteractive type beasts among the other Kakin prince's guardian spirit beasts. My best guess (probably wrong) is that Ging is a transmuter who, after being hit and receiving the damage from a nen ability, can change the aura he's been attacked with into "fuel" for his own counteractive ability. This hypothetical falls under the counteractive type, has extreme versatility in battle and otherwise (similar to Kite's crazy slots), and finally it falls into my favorite nen category lol. tl;dr : i think he's a counteractive type nen user but idk what the affinity is

Him breaking out of the categories is genius! No wonder he was so calm and behold when talking to Gon about him not being able to use Nen. I wonder if that happened to Ging, too. edit²: But it would make sense, if he was a manipulator (but less like manipulation, more like a paladin, with buff abilities for many people).

In stories, protagonists typically have simpler abilities while antagonists have complicated ones. One reason for this is that, if the protagonist is complicated from the start, the less of a development arc in terms of overcoming things he has. Take Gojo, Saitama for instance. Superman famously had this problem where the sheer feats he could do were so grandiose that he became boring and had to nuked a bit and given weaknesses. So if Ging is likely to become the protagonist in the dark continent arc, would it be fun to see him be this super specialist, or naturalist or whatever that can do anything? What would be there for the character to overcome? Someone else like Beyond Netero or the dark continent who are even more special than him? Sure. But it is likely that he is an enhancer too who just took it to a level few have, just like netero.

[@bruh-bd3ll]

ging is in fact patient, he always wanted to roam the dark continent, but he held back and took his own pace, and he doesn't care when will his road to the DC finna happen, cause he's enjoying the detours

[@TheLastCrow5150]

I think Ging looks at nen in a completely different way, which is why he restored ruins. He may have taken the nen system and put it on his head. I think he's another affinity we don't know about.

[@CategoricalSambee]

Thank you, Nick Mullen.

[@iaimen865]

Ging is an enhancer who found a loophole his hatsu is making his own brain better at using nen like komugi with gungi or like gojo’s sixth eye.

[@YepMarko]

One thing you missed is that Gin is maybe Emiter, because Juske from Yu Yu Hakuso, as Juske has Emiter ability and Gin is really similar to him, from look to character.

[@wheresprototype3507]

Heres an idea, Ging doesn't have his own ability, he can only use others, the moment he uses his own power or one's not related to a punch, he loses all the one's he's memorized. ALL OF THEM and he can't ever get them back. It could be that as long as it's a punch, he can copy and use it, it's emitter punches, or conjured gauntlets, he can use it. But if he uses a non punch related or non memorized ability, he'll lose them all.

[@KoreyConsoli]

Real interesting video .. I think your opinion is correct.

[@TheBigE9999]

My thought is that he has some kind of intelligence/skill enhaning hatsu that gets stronger in proportion to how many people are hunting him. Because it's not just Gon that's hunting him, but Kite, and also the hunter association because he never shows up for paperwork. It's a weird character trait for a guy to be actively running from responsibilities he willingly takes on, unless it's to his benefit somehow. And the name of this hatsu? Hunter Hunter

[@T0R0RIKI]

Some people just break the "rules of thumb " about nen categories. Netero is an example. If you have huge amount of control and aura, you can use any type of hatsu and mere mortals cannot tell you apart. Now coming to Ging , according to hisoka's criteria : Enhancer = simpleminded and honest That's not Ging . That's Gon for sure. Ging is a master mind and very capable of hiding things, and lie. We have seen Ging being mostly alone, solitary and charismatic, but he is able to build teams for a goal. In chinese mythology, the boar symbolizes streght and resilience , pointing towards enhancer type. Also his outfit is rough and simple. I think the answer is that he is an atypical enhancer, who just like Netero, honed his skills so much that he can do basically anything

[@dontbothertoreply9755]

Kind of, Netero uses Emision to pull up the statue plus manipulantion and transmutation, he doesn't really developed a specialization technique neither conjured anything.

[@LeoBeastmode]

Maybe when learning about nen, he chose not to take the divination to figure out his affinity. He then made a nen contract to ignore his leanings to gain a different advantage. In that case, it ultimately wouldn't matter what his affinity is and may show a certain connection of the divination test that we don't know about.

[@siduxjxhdgzhdjxhxuuxxyhgg1079]

The idea of the nen system being partly determined by a users perceived biases sounds pretty cool

[@NecromancyForKids]

It could make sense that when you reach a certain level of mastery, the affinities no longer matter. "That system only applies to people or your level." It might feel kinda cheap though, to throw away all of what we know about nen like that.

[@siduxjxhdgzhdjxhxuuxxyhgg1079]

i feel like nen mastery should be about how well you can use the system to your advantage not just being able to ignore it after a certain level

[@Iris-ib3qe]

What if Ging has a sort of “sage mode” style technique where instead of using his own aura, he somehow manipulates natural aura around him. Honestly no real evidence behind this, but it would provide a way for a) Gon to get back in the action b) Ging to have more flexibility and power than thought possible and c) the Hunters to have some sort of way to power up to match the absolute monsters they’ll inevitably find on the Dark Continent

[@slevinchannel7589]

Theres no such thing as 'Natural Aura'' sooo this is too Headcanon-y

[@slevinchannel7589]

Just like New World Review said: Specialist or Transmuter, no doubt about itt

[@ghost6166]

It's really confusing how Ging somehow fits every category of nen and also somehow doesn't, this shows us how mysterious this character is

[@ilovecutemoms]

I’d like to see a video like this on Beyond Netero

[@bh.l1380]

I agree

[@Bastian-Smith]

Long videos please, from Santiago - Chile! PD: The japanese suit woman in the Beyond Netero crew, looks like alot as Sheila... Also we don't know her name even today... To take in consideration!

[@DoubleDrastik]

I think ging is a enhancer and if not hes a sprcialist… for one i think so because gon is one. And the zoldycks also have something like that going on wherr there are only transmuters and manipulators in the family. Second reason why i think so is because they got links to the dark continent.

[@slevinchannel7589]

But that WHOLLLEEE chapter about him 'hiding his Ability and putting-on an At' thooo. Thats so Transmuter Enhancers are meant to be simple, but Ging overcomplicates and levels-up the Complexity of ALL he tocuhes, Nen or Situations

[@Tragedy602]

Specialist don’t know why but he’s a knowledge hunter

[@slevinchannel7589]

[@harryblocks]

He is a Specialist to disappear long distances away from any parental responsibilities. The Nen condition is all his pull out kids have a desire to find him

[@travisbewley7084]

My pet idea is that Ging is kind of a way for Togashi to have Yusuke from Yu Yu Hakusho in HxH. Not literally but spiritually. Like, this is the kinda guy Yusuke would grow up to because I can't see Yusuke settling down, making sushi forever.

[@dontbothertoreply9755]

I kind of do, I do not see him leaving Keiko, he really loves her.

[@travisbewley7084]

@@dontbothertoreply9755 Well, we have no idea what happened to Ging's wife or if he ever had a partner. I still think Gon may be a creature from the Dark Contanent. Or she may have died after birth, it would be off if Ging showed up without her to hand off Gon to Mito.

[@ssage7808]

Totally agree with the specialization take, too many top tier specialists and you run into the one piece haki problem

[@defenetlynotbeingsuspiciou8673]

I think he is a manipulator, he said it himself; if I can make my prey move exactly how I want them to, I have done my job as a hunter. And from everything we know about him, he makes people move how he want. He did it with kite ( he was trying to find ging when he went to whale island) he did it with Mito san ( she took care of gon) he did with gon ( the recorded tape that brought him to G.I) he did with razor. He did it all the bean ( convinced him to rig the chairman election) he did it with the zodiacs ( got them to accept his rules for the election) he’s doing it right now with beyond’s whole crew ( he got them one by one on his side) I think what is special about ging is that the way he makes others do things his way is never forced, . He may be a nen genius like neon or Komigi, he can inspire others to do great things, a natural born leader.

[@HyunAYuchi]

Probably Enhancer-Transmuter, and maybe has developed a 2nd nen affinity like specialist or conjurer

[@slevinchannel7589]

Enhancers are meant to be simple, but Ging overcomplicates and levels-up the Complexity of ALL he tocuhes, Nen or Situations

[@theyoungknight.3119]

I would only be ok with him being specialist if it was revealed that he is the only enhancer to become a specialist later on.

[@rtaylor2682]

I’m super surprised that so many people want to see Gon and killua reunite. it seemed like Killua realized his true value to Gon and that he was better off protecting his family instead of someone that barely values their own life. But it has been a while since I read those chapter 😅 so maybe I’m remembering wrong

[@slevinchannel7589]

Ging can be wahtever Type, i wonder about FANS. What would YOUR Type be?

[@HakimJamil94]

Netero most likely didn't conjure the bodhisattva, but instead emitted it. Remember when he was done with his training and showed his punch to the dojo master? Only the dojo master saw it and exclaimed buddha.

[@slevinchannel7589]

Yeah, some just randomly assume that, which we shouldnt even if the Wiki didnt rightfully point out 'With Buddhism in Mind, it makes massive Sense that Netero uses ALL types EXCEPT the [ materialistic One ] ! I dont think Nen-Constructs/Beasts need Transmutaiton tho, which also many assume but i disagree. We've been directly told by the Narrator once that Manipulation can affect Nen-Beasts. I dont think that's just meant in a Pokemon-in-Pokebal kind of Way. Or at least not only Pretty sure its at least possibly to shape and form your Aura into A Buddha via Manipulation plus Emission. Fn-Fact: Most people we see with Nen-Beasts are either Specialists, Emitters or Manipulators. So literally the furthest away from Transmutation!!

[@op4lnah527]

I’m guessing an Enhancer.. the plot is he can enhance any nen affinity to 100%.. the drawback is he can only enhance one affinity at a time..

[@SargonsEye]

G(n)ee(n)g controls Nen itself and tells it to be his bayaetch

[@gasstation3561]

i think all ging's nen weirdness and genius comes from the fact he's a ruins hunter, hxh world is really old and he could have uncovered some stuff that shakes our understanding of nen and is using that knowlege to go beyong the typical hatsu

[@lastfirst4307]

What if he's everthing but a specialist? Imagine having 100% on all 5 affinities while not even being a specialist. That would be badass.

[@gino1614]

He can time travel, stop the time and Go back to he’s past, journey to the new world’s cover, iron man used it too😊

[@rpgtimefire]

Hes an enhancer he just enhances his pours to make his nen insane. Or he enhances his mind to be the goat.

[@laquanlucas6953]

I think that what Togashi wants us to think I think more of a specialist. He has leadership quality people like razor and the number of members from greed island. Highly respect Ging.

@laquanlucas6953 but the hunter associates hates him. Nobody wanted to vote for him.

[@rpgtimefire]

@laquanlucas6953 he's not charismatic how other specialist are. How people follow crollo. He's can be smart from being an enhancer. If his skin take in more info then that's a way. Also everyone is crazy smart if they are a top tier. It's just part of the verse.

[@laquanlucas6953]

@rpgtimefire He is know to lead and due him being socially awkward. Ging has been in the village for a long time. Interacting people is not his strong suit. People like Razor follow Ging and highly respect him. To me he is a specialist He is very unique. The only one that knows Ging true affinity is 🐐 himself Togashi. I don't think Enhancer is not that simple.

[@Shawn-Xander]

I wonder if you can trade in your nen affinity kinda like offering up your ability to do alchemy in FMAB to gain something I mean if you can give away all your nen or even your life I think you should be able to do that too

[@ghostc1pher]

Based on Hisoka's nen astrology, I'd say he fits manipulator most, enhancer kind of, strong candidate for specialist ... but it'd be a waste to make him a specialist plot-wise since he's already a nen master.

[@laquanlucas6953]

He fit more of a Specialist due to the fact that he is very unique and probably learns nen at a fast pace. Togashi wants to think about what groups of nen category
