big fan of this one
Hello Universe- quick question for the fans out here: DOES ANYBODY KNOW IF YOSHIHIRO TOGASHI WROTE FEITAN'S NAME WITH THE HUNTER X HUNTER ALPHABET???
I have seen other characters have their name spelled out in his creative language, but I have not seen this indulgence for Feitan. THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUse I...need itfor...prsnl. rsns....ffff...
Fine, you want blood from me? I'm getting a tattoo of his name across my anterior torso, straight abust or below my navel, and I want to make sure the unique character spelling is right. Trust me- I feel like crap right now but I know my heart, and I know this love is right. I will never get tired, nor unsatisfied, nor sick, adulterous, or otherwise uninterested in ✨🌟💖💕Feitan.💕💗✨ I love him as a Mother, a lover- a soul mate. 😊 Above what I can do in the fandom, I want him (and this love) to be with me always. 🕉️✨
NOW THEN. Who can help me procure this translation, or a version of the writing..? I will wait and encourage the masses, scream if I have to.

stupid sketch being worked on right now
I did the thing again. When I saw this base, this was the first thing I could think of drawing.
I tend to see a lot of people say that Togashi will leave things uncertain and ambiguous in between Killua and Gon, and while it’s a possibility, I honestly don’t think it’s the most likely thing to happen, and if it did, ambiguous wouldn’t be the correct term to call it.
People often say that Togashi likes to play with ambiguity when it comes to queer matters. Yes, Togashi likes to play with gender. We get to see that through Kite, Pitou and Kalluto in HxH (although its arguable because Kite is definitely not cis). But when Togashi decides that a character is queer, or that there is a relationship going on between two characters, he doesn’t leave it ambiguous.
Togashi has created queer characters in 3 of his main works : Yu Yu Hakusho, Level E and Hunter x Hunter. And everytime he created those characters, he made damn sure that everyone knew that these characters were queer. No room for any sort of ambiguity.
The first examples I have are from Yu Yu Hakusho, with a character named Miyuki, and the other is from Level E, with a character named Kyoko Mikihisa.
For these two characters, Togashi made it so that they emphasized themselves that they were trans. It’s painted extremely clearly, that they were born in the wrong body. There’s literally no room for any sort of ambiguity here.

Hunter x Hunter (2011)
Togashi-sensei posted the famous Kurama & Hiei illustration that was the cover of the 31-page gaiden "Two Shots", published in Weekly Shounen Jump N°9 , 1992. The opening page says:
"Almost parallel
Sometimes they cross…!"
This illustration was also the cover of volume 7.
I also wrote some trivia about Two Shots. According to Togashi's comments in the Yu Yu Hakusho Artbook: "I drew all the 31 pages content freehanded without sketching. HA HA HA like I had time to do this. I was so angry that I didn’t even call the assistants."
