It would be the same if Mito or anyone he loved died because of him. First of all let me direct you to an excellent explaination of Gon's transformation and the meaning behind it: I think you need to reread both the Chimera Ant arc and Election arc XXGenesis as you seem to have forgot a lot of things. While there does seem to be some kind of netherworld in HXH, the ability to interact with it is well outside the limitation of aura. The Zodiac cannot just consult the ghost of Netero to see if Beyond Netero is really his son. If it's at all possible to cheat death you'd be in a world where longdead aura users just possess people or live in another body or whatever. Seriously Kite can't be the first person to realize 'it'd be really nice if I didn't have to die'. There's obviously no way this could actually work and yes the item does have a 'no wish flooding' but it's not like it'd be that hard to come up with 1000 unique things that cannot possibly be accomplished by limitation of humanity. Wish 1000: Resurrect everyone at location ZZZĪnd this demonstrates the absurdity of the 'restriction' concept in HXH. You can't even do something like trade your life to bring someone else back to life in HXH (if it's that easy, someone would've done it already) so if having 100% chance to lose someone else's life can't bring back the dead why should any amount of randomization be sufficient? As an aside I saw fan made strip showing how Ging can revive everyone that died thus far by using the item from GI where you give 1000 (or was it 100) wishes and 3 of them will be fulfilled at random, by simply going: Likewise randomization isn't even that much of a restriction. I feel that Togashi will explore 'souls' more in the future and Kite will be a large part of that. It of course ties in with the World Tree which is the gateway of souls and it also provides us an understanding of where the dead in HxH go. Secondly it gives Togashi a reason to dive into the theme of 'souls' and what exactly they mean in the world of HxH. When he speaks with Kite in Election arc, you can see that it means a lot to Gon and frees him of the weight that was on his shoulders.Ģ. So if Killua saves Gon but Kite wasn't back to life, Gon would still be a mess psychologically and may even be suicidal and still feel to blame despite avenging Kite.
Gon didn't want to live in a world without Kite (his mentor/father figure), this evident by the way he sacrifices his life in order to avenge him. If that was the case why would he bring Kite back as a little girl? Why not bring him back in the form he is known for? The reason is Togashi brought him back for a number of reasons the most obvious of which are:ġ. Kite coming back was not because he is a fan favourite.
