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!!

Quiet confidence runs through the whole post, no need to shout to make the points stick, and a stop at buyspotstore carried that same restrained voice forward, content that respects the reader by trusting its own substance rather than dressing it up in theatrical language is what I look for online and rarely actually find these days.
Decided not to comment because the post said what needed saying, and a stop at stashsuperb continued that complete feel, content that does not invite obvious additions or corrections from readers is content that has been carefully considered and this site appears to consistently produce pieces that satisfy rather than provoke unnecessary follow ups.
Thanks for the readable length, I finished it without checking how much was left, and a stop at sharesignal kept me reading the same way, when I stop noticing the length of a piece because the content is engaging enough to sustain attention without willpower the writer has done their job well today.
Once you start reading carefully here it is hard to go back to lower quality alternatives, and a stop at glassmeadowcommercegallery reinforced that ratchet effect, the way good content raises standards is real over time and this site has clearly contributed to raising my expectations for what is possible in writing on the topic generally.
Speaking honestly this is among the better discoveries of my recent browsing, and a stop at digitaltrendstation 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.
Liked that the post resisted a sales pitch ending, and a stop at huejuly maintained the no pitch approach, content that ends without trying to convert me into a customer or subscriber is content that has confidence in its own value and this site is clearly playing the long game on reader trust.
Just sat with this for a bit longer than I usually would because the points are worth thinking about, and after lanternmeadowcommercegallery I had even more to chew on, the kind of post that nudges your thinking forward without forcing the issue is something I have always appreciated in good writing online.
Honestly the simplicity of the explanation made the topic click for me in a way other writeups had not, and a look at cloverharborcommercegallery continued that clarity into related areas, when a writer gets the level of explanation right the reader does the heavy lifting themselves and the post just enables it.
Glad to have another data point on a question I am still thinking through, and a look at opalrivergoodsgallery added two more, content that acknowledges its place in a wider conversation rather than pretending to settle the question alone is intellectually honest in a way that I wish was more common across the open web.
Worth marking this site as one to come back to deliberately rather than by accident, and a stop at dahbrood 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.
However casually I came to this site I have ended up reading carefully, and a look at trophysofa continued earning that careful reading, the conversion from casual visitor to careful reader is something content earns rather than demands and this site has accomplished that conversion for me over the course of just a few pieces.
Really appreciate this kind of writing, no shouting and no clickbait headlines just steady useful content, and a quick look at uppersharp kept that going, definitely a site I will be returning to whenever I need a sensible take on similar topics in the days ahead and also during slower work weeks.
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at opalrivercraftcollective kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
Appreciate the work that went into laying this out so clearly, every section earns its place without filler, and a look at sorreltavern confirmed the same care, definitely the kind of place that deserves a return visit when the topic comes up again later in the future or for any related question.
Reading this triggered a small reorganisation of my own thinking on the topic, and a stop at silvercovecraftcollective furthered that reorganisation, content that affects the shape of my mental model rather than just decorating it with new facts is content with structural rather than informational impact and this site provides that.
Generally my attention drifts on long posts but this one held it through the end, and a stop at kettleharborcommercegallery earned the same sustained focus, content that defeats my drift tendency is content with substantive pulling power and this site has demonstrated that pulling power across multiple pieces in a session that has now run quite long actually.
A piece that handled the topic with appropriate weight without becoming portentous, and a look at pearlharborvendorparlor 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.
A piece that exhibited the kind of patience that good writing requires, and a look at slackvista continued that patient quality, hurried writing is easy to spot and this site reads as having been written without time pressure which produces a different feel than the rushed content that dominates much of the modern blog space.
If patience for careful reading is rare these days finding sites that reward it is rarer still, and a stop at isebrook extended that rare reward, the diminishing returns on shallow content reading have made me more selective about where to spend reading time and this site is meeting the higher selectivity bar consistently.
Solid little post, the kind that does not need to be flashy because the substance is doing the work, and a look at huijax kept that quiet confidence going across the site, this is what writing looks like when the writer trusts the content to land on its own without theatrics or unnecessary attention seeking behaviour.
The headings made navigating the post simple even when I needed to find a specific section quickly, and a look at hazelharbormerchantgallery continued the same thoughtful structure, small details like clear headings show that someone is actually thinking about how the reader uses the page rather than just filling it for length alone.
Came across this looking for something else entirely and ended up reading it through twice, and a look at velourudon pulled me deeper into the site than I planned, the writing has a way of holding attention without resorting to manipulative cliffhangers or vague promises that never get delivered later down the page.
A piece that prompted a small mental rearrangement of how I order related ideas, and a look at jewbush extended that rearranging effect, content that affects the structure of my thinking rather than just adding to it is content with the deepest kind of impact and this site is reaching that depth for me today.
Decided to set a calendar reminder to revisit, and a stop at salutesyrup extended that revisit list, calendar entries for content are a level of commitment I rarely make but when I do they signal a higher regard than a simple bookmark and this site has earned that calendar tier of relationship from me today.
Reading this gave me a small refresher on something I had partially forgotten, and a stop at buytrailshop extended the refresher, content that strengthens existing knowledge rather than just adding new is content with a particular kind of consolidating value and this site is providing that consolidating function across multiple visits.
The overall feel of the post was professional without being stuffy, and a look at walnutharborvendorparlor 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.
Now realising this site has been quietly doing good work for longer than I knew, and a look at hullgale suggested an archive worth exploring, sites with deep archives of consistent quality represent a different kind of resource than sites with viral hits and this one looks like the durable kind based on what I see.
Appreciate the practical examples, they made the abstract points easier to grasp, and a stop at dailyneedsstore added more of the same, this site clearly understands that real examples beat empty theory every single time which is the mark of a writer who knows their audience well and respects their time.
Probably worth setting aside a longer block to read more carefully than I can right now, and a stop at wildharborcommercegallery confirmed the longer block plan, the impulse to schedule dedicated time for a sites archive is itself a measure of trust and this site has earned that scheduling impulse from me clearly today actually.
Now planning to share the link with a small group of readers I trust, and a look at lavenderharbormerchantgallery suggested more material to share with the same group, recommending content into a curated circle requires confidence in the recommendation and this site is making me confident in those personal recommendations on multiple separate occasions now.
Honestly impressed, did not expect to find this level of care on the topic, and a stop at spectrasolo 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.
Closed the laptop after this and let the ideas settle for a few hours, and a stop at seacovecraftcollective similarly rewarded reflective time, content that benefits from sitting with rather than racing past is the kind I want more of and the kind that this site appears to consistently produce week after week here.
Liked the natural conversational tone throughout, never stiff and never overly casual either, and a stop at florabrookvendorfoundry kept that comfortable middle ground going, finding a tone that respects the reader without becoming distant or overly familiar is harder than it sounds and this site nails that balance consistently across many different pieces.
Even just sampling a few posts the consistency is what stands out, and a look at cottongrovecommercegallery confirmed the broader pattern, sites where every piece I sample lives up to the standard set by the others are sites with serious quality control and this one has clearly invested in whatever editorial process produces that consistency reliably.
Found a small mental shift after reading this, the framing here is just a bit different from the standard takes online, and a look at deoblob extended that fresh perspective across more material, the rare site whose voice actually changes how you think about something rather than just confirming existing beliefs.
Got pulled in by the headline and stayed because the content actually delivered on the promise, and a stop at rainharbormarketgallery kept that trust intact, when a site lives up to its own framing it earns the right to keep showing up in my browser tabs going forward indefinitely from here on out really.
Got pulled in by the headline and stayed because the content actually delivered on the promise, and a stop at tapetoken kept that trust intact, when a site lives up to its own framing it earns the right to keep showing up in my browser tabs going forward indefinitely from here on out really.
Came in skeptical of the angle and left mostly persuaded, and a stop at coralharborvendorloft pushed me a bit further in the same direction, content that can move a critical reader by argument rather than rhetoric is rare and worth pointing out because it indicates real substance underneath the surface presentation here.
Reading this in pieces during a long afternoon and finding it consistently rewarding, and a stop at futurecartcorner fit naturally into the same fragmented reading pattern, sites whose posts can be read in segments without losing the thread are well suited to how I actually read these days and this one is built well.
Comfortable reading experience throughout, no jarring tone shifts and no awkward formatting, and a look at lanternorchardmerchantgallery kept that smooth feel going, the kind of editorial polish that goes unnoticed when present but glaring when absent is something this site has clearly invested in across the broader content as well which deserves recognition.
Solid stuff, the kind of post that I will probably refer back to later this month when the topic comes up again, and a look at honeycovemerchantgallery only confirmed I should bookmark the site as a whole rather than just this single page for future reference and use across coming weeks.
Saving the link for sure, this one is a keeper, and a look at ivebump confirmed I should bookmark the entire site rather than just this page, the consistency across what I have seen so far suggests there is a lot more here worth coming back for soon when I have more time.
Appreciated the way each section connected smoothly to the next without abrupt jumps, and a stop at velvetbrooktradegallery kept that flow going nicely, transitions are something most blog writers ignore but the difference is huge for the reader who is trying to follow a sustained line of thought today across many different topics.
Just nice to read something that does not feel like it was assembled from a content brief, and a stop at aroarch kept that handcrafted feel going, you can tell when a real human with real understanding is behind the words versus a templated piece churned out for an algorithm to find.
If you asked me to point to a recent positive sign for the open web this site would be near the top, and a stop at huiyam reinforced that designation, the few sites that serve as evidence the web can still produce quality independent content are precious and this one has clearly become one for me.
Reading carefully here has reminded me what reading carefully feels like, and a look at tidalurchin extended that reminder, the experience of careful reading versus skimming is different in ways I had partially forgotten and this site has clearly refreshed my memory of what attention feels like when content rewards it consistently.
Saving the link for sure, this one is a keeper, and a look at steamsaunter confirmed I should bookmark the entire site rather than just this page, the consistency across what I have seen so far suggests there is a lot more here worth coming back for soon when I have more time.
Decided after reading this that I would check this site weekly going forward, and a stop at dailycartdeals reinforced that commitment, deciding to add a site to a regular rotation requires meeting a quality bar that very few places clear and this one cleared it cleanly without any noticeable effort or marketing push behind it.
Adding to the bookmarks now before I forget, that is how good this is, and a look at humgrain confirmed the rest of the site is worth saving too, this is one of those rare finds that justifies the time spent searching the web for once which is a relief in the current environment.
Quality writing that respects the reader’s intelligence without overloading them, and a quick look at vocabtrifle reflected that approach, a balanced thoughtful site that earns trust by being consistent rather than by shouting about how trustworthy it is which is the usual approach online sadly across most content categories.
