Hunter x Hunter (2011) Filler List

The last surviving member of the Kurta clan, whose scarlet eyes were harvested by the Phantom Troupe. Kurapika's cold, methodical pursuit of revenge while struggling not to lose himself is one of anime's most compelling character studies.

An optimistic boy with exceptional natural talent who pursues his father and the title of Hunter. His boundless empathy and innate sense of justice coexist with a terrifying capacity for single-mindedness. His transformation during the Chimera Ant arc is the series' most shocking moment.

Gon's best friend and a former professional assassin born into the Zoldyck family of killers. Killua trained since infancy to kill without hesitation. His friendship with Gon and his journey to overcome his conditioning and act on his own values is the series' emotional heart.

A magician and professional killer who takes perverse delight in fighting powerful opponents. Hisoka pursues Gon specifically because he sees potential in the boy and wants to eventually fight him at peak strength. Simultaneously an ally and a threat.

The Chimera Ant King — born with unmatched power, contemptuous of humanity, yet gradually humanized through his relationship with blind shogi player Komugi. His arc is considered one of anime's most profound explorations of humanity through the perspective of someone who was never meant to be human.
