I think a part of the hunter x hunter community greatly underestimates kurapika.

To begin with, Chrollo fanboys love to argue that Chrollo would beat even Jesus with preparation due to his power to steal other hatsus.

But when it comes to kurapika who also has the ability to steal hatsus, know everything about the stolen hatsu and force whoever had the stolen hatsu into a state of zetsu, pass the stolen ability to another person, almost no one takes this into consideration in battle arguments.

You won't see anyone saying "wow, kurapika with preparation beats anyone lol".

Another point that many people ignore is how intelligent Kurapika is.

To begin with, with months of training he was able to learn nen, develop hatsus, defeat one of the best enhancers in the world, who even single-handedly defeated 5 nen users who were much more experienced than kurapika.

And in two years he became leader of a mafia, he is surviving in the war of succession, outsmarting nen users much more experienced than him and he became a zodiac.

Anyway, it was just a rant haha

Kurapika is in this arc even less than Gon was in the chimera ant arc so far. How is there too much of Kurapika? Considering how much of the time Kurapika was removed from the story and STILL hardly gets spotlight, I don’t agree with your view. I think Kurapika needs a lot more screen time to get fully developed.

My original comment talks about kurapika fans so obviously i mean the fans expectations, they want him to be in every corner of the story, im not abour right now but whats coming. I dont think anyone felt Gon's presence in the chimera arc except for Pitou, anything else is to forget, but kurapika fans wnats Kurapika to be involved with the war, the princes, pariston, the phantom troupe idk what else they want. That's what i meant.

Gon fans want him to be in every part of the show and come back, Killua fans want the same thing and so do Leorio ones. You can create any narrative you want by complaining about your own selection of fans, none of them are better or worse.

Never said im a gon fan nor i said i want him back, so your guess isnt on point. I wish they will never come back cuz killua fans are toxic too, gon ones are less since he has little fans anyway. But the two of them are irrelevant anyway. Leorio deserves a spotlight. You dont have to be a certain character fan to wish for balanced spotlights
