Gon's Nen Abilities Explained | Nencyclopedia | New World Review 

Bruh, he really beat me in rock paper scissors.

Really speaks to Togashi's writing that even when the main character is written out of a series, we the readers still want to know what happens next.

I cant wait to see hisoka's face when he knows gon lost his nen abilities

How did I choose the only answer that would make me loose

"Ja-jan!" is also like a Japanese take on "ta-da!", so basically the attack's name is a pun meaning "janken surprise". Which explains why Knuckle was impressed with the name (even though it was a misinterpreted stutter).

Truly the most complex and layered ability.....but it have nothing on bungee gum

There’s an aspect of Gon’s power that I’ve not seen anyone talk about, Gon always ask his opponents a question or ask them to do something and I think that’s one of his condition, whenever his opponent tries to lie of deceive him they then meet his condition and remove the restrictions he placed on himself, Gon developed this nen ability to kill and it’s effective because it will only work on an opponent that is a true enemy, Gon’s nen ability is about deception, while his opponent thinks he’s foolish and easy to deceive; they themselves are being baited into fulfilling Gon’s conditions, the way Gon attack is also deceptive because it can be Rock, Paper or Scissors and he can also fake the attack which is overlooked by most opponents meaning the weakness in his attack can become an strategic advantage, but I think Gon choose these conditions because he wouldn’t use his power to kill a friend, however if you betray him then you’re dead.

*Theory:* "Gon will return and his use of a massive amount of Aura, will increase his overall output. It is impossible for Gon not to be able to use Nen, as Wing-san explains aura as being your life energy and you would grow tired quickly if you didn't stop its release. Most likely, Nanika healed Gon fully, which also closed his Nen apertures, which would be required for Gon to have stable Nen for his smaller body. I believe this is why Wing-san made Gon practice the other Nen before at Heaven's Arena, which resulted in his Nen being much smoother."

I loved his training with Knuckle the best and his brain becoming mush

Thesis: Gon has been completely reset in all aspects regarding nen, but he retained the training his body undervent while using nen that made it possible to be pushed beyond normal human capacities. As his nen is reset by nanika Gon have a new affinity based off of all his life experiences, but choose to awaken it slowly over time at whale island while finishing his studies. We will end up with a more emotionally stable and smarter Gon that think before he acts, effectively making him able to function on his own. As he's still a hunter he picks up hunter related jobs after finishing normal school.

I believe that Gon's transformation was pretty accurate to his actual Nen affinity, because he quite literally "enhanced" his body to endure all of the massive aura that generated from the vow.

So the lesson is : Bungee gum possesses both the properties of rubber and gum

I think Adult Gon Could have been Stronger like he got the body but he didn't have the Mastery of the skill, he was using Jajanken Level 2, to fight Pitou, just think if Gon had trained Naturally He might have become stronger than even Meruem, slowly learning nen and changing his Technique forming into something that is strong enough to kill Even Meruem or Maybe more but he just sacrificed all of this for raw strength but well he might have died against Pitou if he didn't use it so it doesn't matter anyway. I am thinking how Strong would Killua be when he is Adult now.

A 17 year old Gon and Killua would be nice to see. Imagine Gon using Jajanken without channeling, a 4meter Scissor attack, masenko Paper, a 50meter En, his signature first step as fast as GodSpeed, his fishing pole enhanced with Shu, with the added knowledge of home schooling with Aunt Mito. Killua with the dragon Thunderbolt, physical strength of Silva, conjuring Yo-yos, and unlimited GodSpeed, with the added Alluka hacks. Lawd have mercy.

Nencyclopedia. I love it, perfect name for what you actually are. Arguably the most knowledgeable Nenologist next to Togashi himself. Kudos brother. 😊

I've never lost any of his subscribe challenges sadly, I just want to subscribe

I personally believe that Leorio's Arc of becoming a doctor is going to end with him curing Gon and fulfilling himself in the process. I HIGHLY doubt that Gon is no longer going to be the main protagonist of the story.

We tied for rock. It must mean I’m already subscribed 🤷🏿‍♂️

“Small child thing with his tiny tiny arms” 😂

Gon lost his nen because he said the N-Word

Honestly round 2 of jajaken is by far the most interesting part of the attack. Imagine Gon using multiple jajaken in a fight, going to round 5, 6, 7, it would’ve been cool to see something like that and hopefully we will if the manga gets to Gon and Gyro.

The chant really is just how we play the game in Japan And the second round is also part of that

Amazing how you keep the fandom alive! I am thankful and hopeful. Thanks for all that you do 😁 Have a great day ahead of you! 😄 God Bless! Stay strong, stay safe and take care of yourselves! Wishing everyone the best! 😇

If Gon ever gets his nen back I don’t why I feel like he’ll become a specialist

magic, treasure, vast riches, there are people who search for these things....they are called, HUNTERS

“Retired” Gon with no Nen abilities is still a boy who is capable of passing the hunter exam at 12 ( took Hisoka’s badge) stronger & faster than most human adults, and still possessing incredible endurance, pain, tolerance, and resolve. As I understand it, he just has to relearn everything. And everything he learned took around one year.

Gon is a small child thing with itty bitty arms I can never let that go for how funny it is

Great video, well thought out without fallacies or snap judgements. new sub forsure

I have no idea if someone mentioned this already but in the series or I believe in the monger, gons dad said that he can still sense the flow of aura coming from him and apparently if his aura was shut off 100% complete when he made that Vow, No one would be able to sense his aura, which means there is a chance because he’s so young, there is a chance that he will be able to get it back

Adult Gon was never at Meruem's level, Togashi himself stated that the king is the most powerful being in the story

The hell he actually beat me in Rock Paper Scissors

One way he could get his nen back is because what he performed was a specialist ability so I think it’s plausible that he could reawaken or use some sort of specialist ability it could be a really cool way to give more light to specialist ability’s

These are my theories with hope that Gon would regain his Nen back; that he can upgrade his Jajanken into an advance level. A. Upgraded Skill Set: Enhancement 1. *Jajanken Rock: Supernova* - an advanced level of Jajanken Rock with the destructive power similar to Uvogin's Big Bang Impact or even higher. Transmutation 1. *Jajanken Scissor: Whip* - a whip with a fish hook at the tip that is made from nen. Adding to Gon's arsenal, aside from sword, perfect for suppressing an opponent while being conscious. Also useful for Gon to make himself suspended in a hanging surface. 2. *Jajanken Scissor: Warhammer* - a warhammer made from nen. Adding to Gon's arsenal, aside from sword, perfect for crushing/smashing opponents with high defense. 3. Other possible variants of Jajanken Scissor such as scyte, halberd, staff, spear, dagger, etc. Emission 1. *Jajanken Paper: Supernova Blast* - an advanced level of Jajanken Paper 2. *Jajanken Paper: Meteor Shower* - a lesser version of Jajanken Paper in which Gon fires a barrage of energy blasts creating a continuous damage over time. 3. *Jajanken Paper: Armageddon* - a combination of the aforementioned. Sound too overpowered but possible considering the late chairman's last words on his dying moment declaring the humanity's capability to evolve. Gon is no exception for this statement. B. Complex Skill Set: 1. *Jajanken: Aegis* - a combination of _enhancement & transmutation_ in which Gon creates a shield, made from nen, capable of blocking any projectile attacks such as Franklin's Nen bullets. 2. *Jajanken: Cuirass* - an _enhancement & transmutation_ combination in which Gon clad himself with cuirass made from nen. In this way, Gon can attack and defend at the same time. 3. *Jajanken: Fish Net* - a combination of _emission & transmutation_ in which Gon fires a fish net, made from nen, capable of suppressing, immobilizing, or hold fast any potential target or object. 4. *Jajanken: Force Field* - a combination of three nen category _(enhancement, transmutation, & emission)_ in which Gon creates an energy shield capable of blocking any projectile attacks from every angle. The force field does not only protect Gon but also any people within it around him. 5. *Jajanken: Force Blast* - same principle applied to Force Shield but mainly for offensive purpose. With this technique Gon can nullify any projectile attack and shove any hindrances that blocks the way while protecting your self. Sorry, i'm just being imaginative here. Hehe

If adult Gon had better control he probably would be stronger than Meruem. Adult Gon is still an amateur even with his high base stats.

To this day I had never lose any of the challenges at the beginning of the videos so I had been able to enjoy this amazing content without having to subscribe 😀

Aye best youtuber on this platform love the content keep up the good work

Gon needs to be a nen specialist when he gets his nen back hope to see him bounce back and be stronger than ever

With the introduction of Bill's ability it seems clearer that Adult Gon was still Enhancement. If you can make others organisms grow them yourself seems simpler in concept.

I'm really happy that you brought up something I don't hear many people say, which is that it can be inferred that the whole "first comes rock" chant is actually a condition. As you said, I think it was a subconscious thing rather than an actual decision he made -- but the brilliance of it is that it's perfect for him as an inexperienced Nen user. The chant gives him time to gather the Nen he needs so, in a way, it's almost a zero-cost restriction while still providing the benefits of a restriction. The next step, once Gon would have gotten better at concentrating his Nen in his hand (had the *thing* not happened), would have been to eventually get better at "Rap God"-ing the chant like Eminem, sort of like how Netero's prayer movement became extremely quick and optimized after years of standing in one spot doing the same punches over and over again (though whether Gon would have been able to take it that far is anyone's guess). As for Pitou's remark that "his fangs may even be able to sink into the King," we should keep in mind that she's thinking of pre-bomb Meruem -- she was never around him after he left to fight Netero. So even in that form, I'd guess that Gon had quite literally 0 chance to beat post-bomb Meruem.

Awe man I lost. Now I have to subscribe to this awesome youtube channel. Damnit.

Nice

Gon : loses nen Alluka : plot armour

Love the vids keep them up

Wouldn’t be opposed to having some form of “nen retcon” where gon just starts training super hard and develops his body to the point where he doesn’t need nen to achieve the same power he had before, that would just be his “base form” something akin to a heavenly restriction in jjk

I've always loved this conversation. Considering how gon uses then, Adult Gon really does just seem like a hyper extreme enhancer ability. Instead of just condensing all of his nen, he condensed all of his POTENTIAL NEN. Literally turning himself into a hyper rock of sorts. This is just my opinion though😅

Can you do an explanation on Beans? I don’t know wtf that thing is.

I think Gon by the Chimera Ant Arc was Phantom troop level because if how he was tossing squad captains like nothing while phantom troop members were sometimes having a hard time with them

I swear to God I liked and subscribed before I go to rock-paper-scissors event so I'll share this video too .#goodcontent

I hope Togashi gets back on the manga soon. This is easily my fav anime of all time.

Great content as always! I wonder if ENHANCERS could enhance something other than physical attributes. Like could an enhancer focus his nen to artificially increase his intellect or charisma? I cannot remember specific instances in the show where somebody used their hatsu for this kind of application, though i did not really read the manga so im not quite sure.

YOU FOOL I ALREADY WAS SUBSCRIBED

0:59 Fair enough... you got me... Subscribed

Gons nen abilities are cool and all. BUT plz do keep in mind: Hisokas bungee gum has the properties of BOTH rubber AND gum

"There insides would now be there outsides"😂

Thread to discuss adding depth to Gon's Hatsu. A sub technique that allows Gon to switch attacks ( much like a kid cheating in rock paper scissors) mid call in exchange for 50% of the overall charged up power

Awesome job as always. I would love it if you'd do one on what we know of feitans nen.

Paper! Nobody beats me in paper scissors rock; but that's ok I was already subscribed :D

Still a novice in HxH but I have a question relating to adult gon and the conditions of the form as mentioned in other comments. As I understand it the conditions were 1) Give up he ability to use nen and 2) give up all of his natural talent. So with condition 2 does that mean the 1;10 million talent was erased leaving gon potential ro use nen again but at the level of a regular person? and could or did nanika undo condition two? edit: removed accidental timestamp

This mans intro’s for subscribing are so underrated, I felt like he really earned the subscribe

This vid gave me the chilling thought of gon and netero vs meruem. Netero’s inhuman speed could defend gon while gon charges up his jajanken. And instead of performing the zero hand, netero can capture meruem in that same way so that gon can connect his rock jajanken attack.

Hay I don't know if you keep up with the M.H.A manga but I would love some of that content

Cant believe I lost at rock paper scissors

Well played. I'm now subscribed.

Damn now I have to subscribe. Sheeet he got me

With transmutation you can shape your Nen into a sword, but you can also do that with manipulation too right? Or can you with manipulation just manipulat your body like Illumi or is this Transmutation too?

Gotta admit part of reason want him to come back even if it's in a minor role is just to see Gon's nen abilities evolve.

this my first video of yours that im watching, but i cant lie i played scissors so....i guess you got a new sub

Why did we all think that he'll be a specialist? 😂😂😂

I lost, but I was already subscribed, so I wouldn’t argue the L I took.

I think you’ve forgotten that the idea behind “Rock Paper Scissors” is that every attack has a weakness/counter and that each of the three can counter any opponent based off what they see.

He actually got me with the Rock Paper Scissors... must subscribe

What happens if Gon goes Jajaken and say rock and you say paper.

It's so depressing to know that we wont ever get any new episodes of hxh

I think the perfect development of Gon’s abilities could have happened if he developed some kind of Godspeed like technique with his aura. Something like a Jajanken Full Cowling allowing him to use his attacks more consecutively (they would obviously be weaker then his charged versions though) and maybe a power like this could boost his already impressive defense too an even higher level

I went paper because I thought you would because that's mainly what Gon uses, but ill subscribe anyways, cause you got a great channel :D

That’s great and all, but did you know bungee gum has the properties of both rubber and gum?

HxH is one of the best community ♥️

I think it would be so cool if gons opponents could negate his attacks by choosing the counter option like saying I use paper when gon uses rock but in exchange chosing the wrong option is basically I one hit KO

I miss Gon and his nen. Like it was simplistic but more versatile than most and especially given his talent he would be a monster if he had mastered nen.

Honestly change the channel title to Nen World Review

Gon will get his Nen back. He has the most powerful nen of all: PLOT ARMOR.

Wait. A NEW HxH series? How do you keep making great content after this long of a hiatus. Thank you sir.

I think there are 3 possibilities of what that power was at the end of the chimera ark: 1. It is just a vow kinda like what kurapika did with the limitation he put on himself that he would die if he did not only use it against the spiders but in a different category. 2. It is a family ability, either the vow could be a family ability or the power that he got was the family ability all in and of itself, also if this is true then don would have already mastered this ability making it so it has no backlash. 3. It was a power that came from the dark continent, it wouldn’t be surprising that it came from there but it could have been don freecs granting him that power or some other being that lives there and to get his nen back he will have to go to that being in the dark continent to get his nen back

Just putting this out there again. Gon isnt Ging's son. He's one of Ging's hatsu

I think Pitou was relieved to die stopping Gon because he saw the possibility of Gon defeating Meruem.

What’s interesting is that Wing makes note of their correct intuition to assume natural stances to begin learning and controlling their nen in Heaven’s Arena, but two steps later, if deliberate and consistent enough, performing techniques in unnatural ways can increase the resulting hatsu as those consistent unnatural processes (like Netero’s 100 GB prayer) become extremely strict or potent nen restrictions. If you can make something that is unnatural so consistent to your nature that it feels like a natural movement or technique, like breathing, the nen around that technique becomes that much stronger. So much nen theory to be had. Fuckin wild.

Always watch ya videos but never subscribed, you beat me so i guess you got a new subscriber 😂

Gon is the type of protag that over the course of the series you start off liking then grow to dislike then grow to love before finally end up hating. His selfishness can not be understated. He appears altruistic at a glance but when it really matters to him he will put himself and his desires over a mission that has other people's lives on the line. I loved the series and would love for Gon to return but yeah - the kid is hella selfish lol

Ha! Rock beats rock! Am I playing this right?

wow I actually chose scissors, a deal’s a deal sir, you’ve got a new sub

Haha jokes on you! I’m already subscribed lol. I of course picked scissors and lost embarrassingly

no way theres 0 views wtf 4 comms already hell naww

Can you cover the movie power *”On”* from “the final mission” & if could be made canon & be used by Gon, since it is not Nen?!

I gave you my word. I subbed

I love how bungee gum jokes never get old

Phew im early

His nen ability is so basic then you have Killua who’s nen ability is amazing

i'm pretty sure he's gonna get his power one way or the other, whether his friends/ father gets him something from the dark continent or he becomes a natural nen user that doesn't need to consciously build his nen ability which would make him even stronger

Never realized this but natural enhancers are really strong and could put up a fight next to specialists. The lowest mastery rate they have is around sixty, while specialists have a natural talent in all types of nen being able to master and use them all at an efficient pace, enhancers are basically half of that, so I can see why people would like to have enhancer or special more then any other now, thanks for the info.

Honestly , I lost hope. Maybe in one or two years I'll edit this message but for now, I'm assuming hxh is gone.
