Honestly, at some point, this kind of toxic humor directed at Gon, coupled with the fandom’s utter indifference to his deteriorating state at the time, became such a depressing norm that it no longer even elicits an emotional response. It just feels like a symptom of the fandom’s overall decline. Year after year, it’s the same recycled takes about his character and his relationship with Killua. And the fact that this post has nearly 5k likes says a lot.
