Within the world of manga there are a huge number of works, but among them “Hunter x Hunter” has become a milestone, as well as a work that almost touches the term “cult” because although it has its years of publication, this “shonen” has given us several of the most iconic moments that define the industry while the journey of Gon and Killua to become a “hunter” has awakened in every fan an admiration and a feeling of overcoming. While the work has had some ups and downs in recent years, we may finally be very close to its end, according to a recent “interview” with its author, Yoshihiro Togashi.
“Hunter x Hunter” would already have a route set for its grand finale, reveals its author!
According to a recent leak derived from an interview with the author of “Hunter x Hunter” Yoshihiro Togashi, he has revealed how the manga would end, and not only that, but it would have several endings that he himself has catalogued as scenarios A, B, C and D that depend on the situation in which the manga finds itself and based on the feedback from the fans that he has had in recent years. Togashi mentions that scenario “A” entails “50% satisfaction for its readers and 20% dissatisfaction”, scenario “B” would be neutral, as he would state that it would be “50-50 satisfied and dissatisfied readers”.
Scenario “C” of Hunter x Hunter would be so far the most controversial, as it would represent 90% dissatisfaction for its readers and 10% acceptance for them, this because this final would be more a personal taste towards his work. But what is most surprising is that option “C“, the fourth and final ending, would be reserved if Togashi would die before finishing his work, where even the user “@Pewpiece” responsible for the leak has made a transcript of it, which we present below, but that should be taken with “tweezers” due to its origin.
Hunter x Hunter D: “By the lake, a girl named Jin, with a fishing rod in her hand, stands motionless. Suddenly, the rod shakes violently, and Jin, startled, exclaims: “I got him! I’ve caught the lord of the lake”. Jin deftly lifts the lord of the lake onto his shoulders and, standing before a woman, exclaims, “As promised, I have caught the lord of the lake! Mom!” Jin approaches the woman and passionately declares, “You must never tell me again that I have to become a hunter.”
Hunter x Hunter D: The woman, now out of tricks, nods her head. Jin, still carrying the lake lord on his shoulder, walks away. The mother comments to her husband that Jin’s dream is to never leave the island and inherit his place. The father nods, laughing, and the mother expresses her discontent, saying, “Maybe his wishes will change later. But I want to know, you and Jin, why are you like this? I’m sure it’s because of Grandma Mito’s and Grandma Noko’s blood.’
Hunter x Hunter D: The woman seems unaware that Grandma Mito and Grandma Noko are not related by blood, and the father smiles knowingly. The woman, expressing her unwillingness as a mother, adds, ‘But Grandpa Gon was a famous hunter… and this child will one day leave the island.’ Jin insists: ‘I’ll never leave!’, although she is no longer seen in the heart of the forest, she overhears her parents’ conversation and responds defiantly. The father, amused, tells her, ‘You have a good eye’.
Hunter x Hunter D: The scene shifts to the store continuing its work from the days of Myth. The lord of the lake has been neatly cut and his insides tidied up. Jin thinks as he works, “Mom never gets it.” When Grandpa talks cheerfully about his hunting memories, Grandma Noko quietly turns away from her seat. Every time Grandpa Gon affirms, his belief is heard in someone. He bangs hard on the cutting board with a knife to wait for someone’s return after months and years of sadness breaks my heart. Then the door opens and a warm voice resounds. In walks a chubby boy with a plant in his hand.
Hunter x Hunter D: The boy exclaims, ‘I’ve caught the real lake lord! Then let’s honor the whole island with it!’ Jin replies, ‘I always… always wanted to be with the person I want to be with. Together, always.” The boy nods, “Yes!” Both of them, with wide smiles on their faces, cook the food. A bird flies away from the island, over a village and its people. The son of one of them, the daughter of another and the grandson of another live in different places, exchanging smiles. They could be the children of that character and the grandchildren of that one. The bird flies in the distance. In the background, a figure observes the scene.”

As mentioned above, this is a transcript made by the author of the leaks, so we recommend you take it as calm, because we will not know if it will be a reality as the author points out, because although the constant health problems of Tosgashi-sensei author of Hunter x Hunter have had the community and his fans a little worried, it seems that this is being left a little behind and it is a fact that the author is making a slow but steady recovery.
Tell us in the comments section what you think about this supposed end of a work as important as Hunter x Hunter, we are a little skeptical about the situation in which it has been released and especially the scenario in which it is proposed that this final would be a reality, but we would like to know your opinion.
