どうも、ハンターハンターが連載再開するということで
歓喜している小野田（かろりぃ）です。
普段はジャンプ読まないんですが、
ハンターハンターのために読むことになりそうです。笑
さて、ハンターハンターといえば
あらゆる名シーンがあります。
天空闘技場編から念能力という存在が出てきて、
グリードアイランド編から念能力の
いろんな使い方が出てきてどんどん面白くなっていきました。
グリードアイランド編もめちゃくちゃ面白いんですが、
その次のキメラアント編はそれをさらに越える面白さ。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
その中でも、ネットでも話題になり、
僕の中でも印象に残っているのが、
主人公のゴンが突然大人になるシーンです。
（サムネ画像がそのビフォーアフター）
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
ゴンはまだ子供だったんですが、
一気に大人になります。
どこかの蝶ネクタイの名探偵とは逆で、
身体は大人、頭脳は子供の状態になりました。
しかも、ただ身体が大きくなるだけではなく、
念能力も強化され、一気にエネルギーが上がっています。
急に大人になった原理は置いといて、
まずはここを考えてみましょう。
なぜゴンは大人化したのか？
→ネフェルピトーを殺すため
（敵のキメラアント）
このネフェルピトーは、
ゴンの尊敬するハンターである「カイト」を殺しているのです。
しかも、その後カイトは、
ネフェルピトーの念能力によって操り人形となり、
キメラアント達の戦いの練習台にされていたのです。
それを知ったゴン、ブチ切れ。
さらに、カイトがそうなってしまった理由には、
「ゴン達を守ろうとしたから」というのがあります。
カイト一人ならそうなる前に逃げられたかもしれないけど、
ゴン達が一緒にいたから、守るために戦ったのです。
結果、ネフェルピトーの圧倒的な力に負けてしまった。
ゴンは、そんなネフェルピトーに復讐しようと
キメラアント達の拠点に乗り込むわけですが、
自分より遥か格上のハンターであるカイトも負けた相手です。
当然、今の実力では勝てません。
そしてネフェルピトーを見つけたとき、
ちょっとここは長くなるので割愛しますが、
とあるキッカケでまたゴンはブチ切れます。
激おこです。
そこでゴンは、「クリリンのことかーー！！」
と言わんばかりに怒りと哀しみを爆発させ、
スーパーゴンに変貌するのです。
それが、大人ゴン。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
このとき、ゴンがあり得ない早さで急激に成長し、
何十年もの修行に耐えてようやく辿り着くはず姿へと
一気に変貌できたのは、”放棄”したからです。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
ゴンは、「もうこれで終わってもいい」
と言ったんです。
「（ネフェルピトーを倒せるなら）
もう念能力を使えなくなってもいい」
「これで死んでもいい」
そうやって、自分を制限していたものを
削ぎ落としたんです。
普通のハンターなら、命に関わるものなので、
ここまで削ぎ落とすことはできません。
でも、ゴンは大切な人を自分のせいで失った哀しみと、
その仇であるネフェルピトーへの怒りによって
それらを削ぎ落としました。
これにより、ゴンのエネルギーが飛躍したのです。
（その結果、急激に大人になった）
このシーン、めちゃくちゃ重要な学びがあります。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
人の魅力（エネルギー）は、
余計なものを削ぎ落とすことで飛躍する。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
「死にたくない」という思いは、
ある意味、”究極に余計なもの”です。
この思いが無ければ、
できることは一気に増えるはずですからね。
でも、普通はこれを捨てるなんてできません。
「死んでもいい」と
本気で思える人なんていないはず。
だけど、ゴンは本気でそう思った。
本気で「もう終わってもいい」とコミットした。
つまり、究極に余計なものを削ぎ落としたのです。
だからこそ、
あれだけの変貌が可能になったんですね。
じゃあ、他に「余計なもの」には
どんなものがあるのか？
ということなんですが、たとえば身近なものなら、
過去への執着・見栄・プライドなどがあります。
こういう余計なものがあることによって、
僕らに「悩み」が生まれるわけです。
で。
こういう余計なものを削ぎ落とすことによって、
悩みは、悩みではなくなります。
ここ大事ですよ。
今の悩みというのは、
今のステージにおける悩みです。
ステージが変われば、今の悩みは
悩みではなくなります。
ですので、
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
今の悩みが悩みじゃなくなったとき、
（どうでもいいことだと気付いたとき）
その人の魅力は１つ上のステージに上がる。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
僕自身、昔は気にしていたのに、
今は気にならなくなった事が
すぐに思いつく限りでもいくつかあります。
（昔は悩んでたことに悩まなくなった）
その中には、明らかに自分の振る舞いに
影響を与えてると分かるものもあります。
なので、成長を止めるつもりはありませんが、
昔より成長できてることは実感できてます。
ゴンが身をもって教えてくれた重要な学び。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
人は、余計なものを削ぎ落としたとき、
魅力（エネルギー）が跳ね上がる。
＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝
「弱さを見せれる人は魅力的」
なんてことが言われますが、
これも「弱さを見せたくない」という余計なものを
削ぎ落としているからなのです。
それでは、今回はこれで。
ありがとうございました！
ハンターハンター楽しみ！！

Honestly thank you to whoever wrote this because it scratched an itch I had not quite been able to articulate, and a stop at beetledune kept that satisfying feeling going, the kind of writing that meets unspoken needs is special and this site clearly has writers who understand their readers more than most do today.
A piece that brought a sense of order to a topic I had been finding chaotic, and a look at emynox continued that organising effect, content that imposes useful structure on messy subjects is doing genuine intellectual work and this site is providing that organisational function across multiple posts I have read recently here.
Reading this confirmed a hunch I had been carrying about the topic without having articulated it, and a stop at fawnfoxglove extended the confirmation, content that gives shape to fuzzy intuitions is doing the rare work of making private thoughts public and this site is providing that articulating service consistently for me lately.
Closed it feeling I had taken something away rather than just consumed something, and a stop at flonox extended that taking away feeling, the difference between content I extract value from and content I just pass through is something I track informally and this site is consistently in the value extraction column for me.
Picked something concrete from the post that I will use immediately, and a look at cypresselder added another concrete piece, content that produces immediately useful output rather than just abstract appreciation is content that earns its place in my regular rotation without needing any further evaluation from me at this point honestly.
Liked the post enough to read it twice and the second read found new things, and a stop at lemonlarkcraftcollective similarly rewarded the second look, content with hidden depths that only reveal themselves on careful rereading is the rare kind that earns lasting respect rather than fleeting first impressions only briefly held.
Now sitting back and recognising that this was a small but real win in my reading day, and a stop at elfinfennel extended that quiet win, the cumulative effect of small reading wins versus the cumulative effect of small reading losses is real over time and this site is contributing to the wins side of that ledger.
Reading this slowly to give it the attention it deserved, and a stop at gentianfawn earned the same slow read, choosing to read slowly is a small act of respect for content quality and very few sites earn that respect from me but this one did so without any explicit ask which is the cleanest way.
Worth bookmarking and sharing with anyone interested in the topic, that is my honest take, and a stop at coralmeadowtradegallery reinforces that, the kind of generous resource that makes the open web feel worth defending against the constant pressure to retreat into walled gardens and curated feeds today everywhere I look across all my devices.
Left me wanting to read more rather than feeling burned out, that is a good sign, and a look at salutesyrup confirmed there is plenty more here to explore, the kind of writing that builds appetite rather than killing it which is a rare quality on the modern open internet today across most categories of content.
Now noticing how rare it is to find a site that does not feel rushed, and a look at falconbeetle extended that calm pace, content produced without time pressure has a different quality than content shipped to meet a deadline and this site reads as written without urgency which produces a different and better experience for readers.
Loved the writing voice here, friendly without being fake and confident without being arrogant, and a stop at timbertrailcommercegallery carried the same tone forward, the kind of personality that makes a reader feel welcome rather than lectured at which is a balance plenty of writers struggle to find no matter how long they have been at it.
Started reading without much expectation and ended on a high note, and a look at bisonholly continued that arc, content that builds rather than peaks early is a sign of a writer who knows how to structure a piece for sustained reader engagement rather than relying on a strong hook to do all the work.
Solid value packed into a relatively short post, that takes skill, and a look at quartzmeadowcommercegallery continues the dense useful content across more pages, this site clearly understands that respecting reader time is itself a form of generosity which is something most blog operations seem to have forgotten lately across the wider open web.
A genuine pleasure to find a site that publishes at a sustainable cadence rather than chasing the daily content treadmill, and a look at valuegoodsbazaar confirmed the careful publication rhythm, sites that prioritise quality over frequency are rare and this one has clearly chosen the slower pace which I appreciate as a reader.
The use of plain language without dumbing down the topic was really well done, and a look at condoraspen continued in that same accessible style, this is something many technical writers fail at because they either confuse their readers or condescend to them but here neither problem appears at all which is impressive really.
Now setting aside time on my next free afternoon to read more from the archives, and a stop at dunecovemerchantgallery confirmed that time will be well spent, the rare site whose archive deserves a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the kind of resource worth scheduling around and this one qualifies clearly.
Honestly impressed, did not expect to find this level of care on the topic, and a stop at argylebasil cemented the impression, you can tell within the first few paragraphs whether a site is going to be worth the time and this one delivered on that early promise nicely throughout the rest of what I read.
Over the course of reading several posts here a pattern of quality has emerged, and a stop at icabran confirmed the pattern, the difference between sites that hit quality occasionally and sites that hit it consistently is huge and this site has clearly demonstrated the consistent kind through what I have read this morning.
Felt the post handled a sensitive angle of the topic with appropriate care, and a look at scarabsail extended that careful handling across related material, sites that can navigate delicate territory without causing damage are rare and require a level of judgement that comes from experience rather than from following any clear playbook.
Felt the writer respected me as a reader without making a show of doing so, and a look at ilanub continued that quiet respect, this is the kind of small but meaningful detail that separates the sites I bookmark from the ones I close after a single skim and never return to again no matter how interesting the headline.
Just want to flag that this was useful and not bury the appreciation in caveats, and a look at borealgarnet earned the same direct praise, recognising good work without hedging it with criticism is something I try to practice because over qualified compliments tend to read as backhanded and miss the point sometimes.
A piece that did not try to be timeless and ended up reading as durable anyway, and a look at bevelbison extended that durable feel, content that stays useful past its publication date without straining for permanence is content that ages well and this site has the kind of evergreen quality that I value highly today.
Will be back, that is the simplest way to say it, and a quick visit to hollydragon reinforced the decision, this site has earned a spot in my regular rotation alongside a few other reliable places I check when I want something genuinely informative without all the usual modern web noise getting in the way.
The overall feel of the post was professional without being stuffy, and a look at senatetoucan kept that approachable expertise going, finding the right register for technical content is hard but this site has clearly figured out how to sound knowledgeable without slipping into that distant lecturing tone that loses readers in droves every time.
Decided to set aside time later to read more carefully, and a stop at eshcap reinforced that decision, content that earns a calendar entry rather than just a passing read is in a different tier altogether and this site is clearly working at that elevated level which I really do appreciate as a reader today.
Closed the tab feeling I had spent the time well, and a stop at bomboard extended that feeling across more pages, the test of whether time on a site was well spent is one I apply silently after closing tabs and very few sites pass it but this one passed it cleanly today afternoon clearly.
Speaking honestly this is among the better discoveries of my recent browsing, and a stop at dahliaferret reinforced that discovery quality, the ranking of recent discoveries is informal but meaningful and this site has placed near the top of that ranking based on the consistency of quality across what I have already read carefully.
Such writing is increasingly rare and worth supporting through attention, and a stop at floretbagel extended that supportive attention across more pages, the conscious choice to spend time on sites that produce careful work rather than convenient consumption is itself a small form of patronage and this site is receiving that conscious patronage from me.
Reading this on a phone at a coffee shop and finding it perfectly suited to that context, and a stop at geysercoyote continued the comfortable mobile experience, content that works across reading conditions without compromising on substance is increasingly important and this site has clearly thought about the whole reader experience here.
The examples really helped me grasp the points faster than abstract descriptions would have, and a stop at steamsaunter added a few more practical illustrations that drove the message home, the kind of writing that knows its readers learn better through concrete situations rather than vague generalities is rare and worth recognising clearly.
A piece that handled the topic with appropriate weight without becoming portentous, and a look at linencoveartisanexchange continued that calibrated seriousness, content that takes itself seriously without becoming pompous is something this site has clearly figured out and the balance shows up in every piece I have read across multiple sessions now.
Decided this was the best thing I had read all morning, and a stop at ferretcactus kept that ranking intact, ranking my reading is something I do mentally throughout the day and the top rank is competitive and not easily won but this site won it without needing to overstate its claims for that.
Speaking from the perspective of a fairly demanding reader the writing here clears the bar consistently, and a look at holpod continued clearing that bar, the calibration of demanding reader is something I apply to all sources and this site has been one of the few that handles the demanding reading well across pieces sampled.
Speaking honestly this is among the better discoveries of my recent browsing, and a stop at calicocopper reinforced that discovery quality, the ranking of recent discoveries is informal but meaningful and this site has placed near the top of that ranking based on the consistency of quality across what I have already read carefully.
Saving this link for the next time someone asks me about this topic, and a look at uplandharborcommercegallery expanded what I will be sharing with them, this is the kind of resource that makes a real difference when you are trying to point a friend to something useful and reliable rather than generic marketing pages.

If I were grading sites on this topic this one would receive high marks, and a stop at awningalmond continued earning those high marks, the informal grading I do mentally for content sources is something I take seriously even though it is informal and this site has been receiving consistent high marks across multiple sessions today.
Worth pointing out that the post avoided the temptation to summarise everything at the end, and a look at quartzorchardmerchantgallery continued that confident closing approach, content that trusts readers to retain the substance without being reminded of it at the end is content that respects the reader and this site practices that respect.
Comfortable in tone and substantive in content, that is a hard combination to land, and a look at harborstonevendorparlor kept that pairing alive across more material, this is what good editorial direction looks like in practice and the team here clearly has someone keeping a steady hand on the wheel across what they decide to publish.
Looking back on this reading session it stands as one of the better ones recently, and a look at affordableclothingshop extended that ranking, the informal ranking of reading sessions against each other is something I do mentally and this session ranks high largely because of this site and a couple of related pages here.
Felt the writer respected me as a reader without making a show of doing so, and a look at condorferret continued that quiet respect, this is the kind of small but meaningful detail that separates the sites I bookmark from the ones I close after a single skim and never return to again no matter how interesting the headline.
Without overstating it this is a quietly excellent post, and a look at idaoat extended that quiet excellence, content that earns superlatives without demanding them through marketing language is content that has truly earned them through the substance and this site has clearly produced work in that earned excellence category today.
Definitely a recommend from me, anyone curious about the topic should check this out, and a look at treblevinca adds even more reason for that, the depth and quality combine to make this site one I will be pointing people toward whenever similar conversations come up over the months ahead at work or socially.
A particular pleasure to read this with a fresh coffee, and a look at argylecougar extended the pleasure across more pages, content that pairs well with quiet morning rituals is something I have come to value highly and this site has the kind of energy that fits naturally into a calm reading routine.
Worth saying that this is one of the better things I have read on the topic in months, and a stop at camelferret reinforced that ranking, the topic is well covered by many sources but few do it with this level of care and the few that do deserve to be flagged so other readers can find them.
Worth marking this site as one to come back to deliberately rather than by accident, and a stop at ilobyte reinforced that intention, the difference between sites I find again by chance and sites I return to on purpose is meaningful and this one has clearly moved into the deliberate return category for me.
Quietly enthusiastic about this site after the past few hours of reading, and a stop at buckledahlia extended that enthusiasm, the calibration of enthusiasm to evidence is something I try to maintain and this site has earned a calibrated quiet enthusiasm rather than the loud excitement that usually fades within a day or two of finding something.
Will be coming back to this for sure, too much good content to absorb in one sitting, and a stop at eshpyx only added more pages I want to dig through, this site is going onto my regular rotation list because it consistently delivers something worth the visit lately rather than empty filler.
Thanks for taking the time to write this, it is clear that some thought went into how each point would land, and after I went through gypsyglider I had a better grip on the topic, real value without the usual marketing noise people have to put up with online when searching for answers.
