Gon is a child who is eager to join the league of hunters to find his dad. The manga Hunter x Hunter starts out fairly happy as it follows Gon's story, but takes a darker turn after he enters the exam to become a hunter. The plot is highly rated because it gets darker as the characters develop, showing real change. The author plans to base their art work on Hunter x Hunter and Tokyo Ghoul, creating a main character like Gon combined with a mask from Tokyo Ghoul in their own style.
