Greed Island was weird as hell because it simultaneously expanded on nen and explained that dumb card system that will never be relevant again.

Togashi relishes creating robust combat systems that could sustain an entire fight anime and then throwing them to the wayside

that's just who he is

It's especially interesting because if you just made maybe one or two small corrections the entire arc would have proceeded in a far more normal but still very satisfying direction

but it's the idiosyncrasies that really make hxh so special

Yeah, Leeorio is one of those types I'm fine with being mostly static. For the most part he knows who he is and he tries to do the right thing. Why gently caress with a good thing, especially when his current nature leads to him inadvertently helping pariston troll the entire hunter association

Alluka is good, because the entire time you're wondering how Killua is going to handle the sacrifice he'd be asked, and then it turns out that there wouldn't be one. People were so obsessed with power that they never even considered the fact that she might be able to heal something "for free" just by asking. it's all part of HxH's pleasantly amoral here be dragons setting

I'm not sure any of the royal guard could theoretically be rehabilitated. Their best possible fate was very likely dying for their king. And thanks to her efforts, Meruem got to share some nice peaceful moments with komugi, which might not have happened if Gon was still on the warpath.
