Thus, he’s able to fully devote himself to the King. Youpi is probably the most different from Neferpitou and Shaiapouf because he’s far more straightforward about carrying out the King’s orders, probably because he is the least human of the three and therefore relies more on his instincts. It’s clear that he cares about the King, an obsessive sort of love and devotion, but Shaiapouf is more selfish and will find ways sneakily do what he thinks is best for Meruem whether Meruem wants it or not. Shaiapouf, however, will override any concern about the King’s desires if he believes that something else will benefit the King. Neferpitou cares about the King and takes his feelings into account, so she also makes sure to protect Komugi, a human that the King cares about very much. Although they’re all very loyal to the King, they all express their devotion to him in different ways and have different opinions on how best to serve the King. We’re introduced to Neferpitou, Shaiapouf, and Menthuthuyoupi (or Youpi for short), who are the most powerful Chimera Ants next to Meruem, the King. The Royal Guards are three Chimera Ants that are born specifically to protect the Queen and, after the King is born, solely listen to the King and follow him to create a new colony of Chimera Ants. The Royal Guards are perhaps the greatest example of this. They have dreams and desires, which I found really fascinating. Because the Chimera Ants have hidden memories of their human past deep down in the back of their mind, they are now more than just animals seeking food. What’s even more surprising, however, is how fleshed out the Chimera Ants were. It’s exciting to watch Gon, Killua, and the rest of the Hunter Association go up against such ruthless creatures. Are the Chimera Ants incredibly overpowered? Yeah, but I’ve been waiting for Gon and company to face a challenge and the last time his group had faced enemies this dangerous was back in Yorknew City, so I welcomed these deadly antagonists with open arms. Is that how pores work? Maybe Chimera Ants are different.) Thus, the Hunter Association must be called in to deal with the Chimera Ants before the invasive species wipes out all of humanity. (The discovery itself is a little weird to me.
Even worse, the Chimera Ants themselves learn that they can now wield Nen. Once the Chimera Ants become the most powerful they’ve ever been, they begin to prey on human villages and things get even more worse when they discover just how powerful they can become when they consume “special humans” - Hunters that have the ability to use Nen. (For more information on this ability and many more, I highly recommend you check out NickV’s Nen Ability series!) Kite also has a really unique Nen ability, Crazy Slots, which allows him to conjure a random weapon for combat. The only other time we saw Gon and Killua accompanied by a pro-Hunter was when they were with Bisky on Greed Island but this time they’re on official Hunter business, which I think is super cool! Through Gon and Killua’s adventures with Kite, we get to see how cool - and dangerous - Hunter work is as well as the strength that a pro-Hunter possesses. It’s also really fantastic to see Gon and Killua working with a pro-Hunter. Kite also helps confirm that Ging, despite abandoning Gon, really does care about his son and believes that Gon will grow up to be a great Hunter. Ging’s poor parenting skills are pretty questionable but it’s also just who he is as a person. We get a better understanding of who Ging was. Prior to Kite, the viewers had only received about Ging from Aunt Mito and a few friends that Ging worked with to create Greed Island, like Razor and Dwun. Aside from being another mentor for Gon and Killua and getting the two youngsters involved with the Chimera Ant situation, Kite also brings up new information about Ging that the audience didn’t know before. Kite is one of the many new characters introduced in this arc and is of great importance.
