Succession war Kurapika
I've completed all the available HXH chapters (400), and there were a few scenes that really stood out to me with Kurapika.
I love and adore him as the main character of this arc, and we've seen his perspective and his downward spiral in yorknew.
Seeing him now, and how far he's strayed definitely makes his POV the most interesting to me.
I wanted to point out/ talk about some of the panels throughout the SW.
Tumblr media
This panel especially stood out to me, and it's one of my favorites out of the entire manga. He mentions how every time he got a part of his brethren back- he lost something. While I think it could be a physical presence, I think he's talking about himself here more than anything.
Each time he's threatened, coaxed, paid people off, he's lost a part of himself.
Kurapika strays away from his relationships, while to protect them- and also what I believe is out of guilt (and the other which I'll go over in a moment). I think he knows what he's doing to himself, and I don't think he can handle facing it head on, or risking harming his friends physically or emotionally.
Tumblr media
And again, when Kurapika agrees to join the zodiacs.
Tumblr media
Straying even from Leorio, it's clear he'd rather face things alone, and without distractions. Which is exactly what they are, distractions.
Tumblr media
His quest to collect his family is coming to an end. "Where would I go?" I think he means this in a literal, and metaphorical sense. Where will he end up by the end of this? Which path will he go down? He has no place to call home, and he truly believes he has nothing left, and nobody to welcome him back.
Despite having allies, and who quickly became close friends.
Tumblr media
He didn't realize it at the time, but shortly after teaming up with Bill and others- he understood the importance of allies.
Tumblr media
"Things didn't proceed so simply", things weren't as simple as gathering pawns, and walking the path of revenge alone.
He formed genuine bonds that mean more to him than simple pawns for his quest. He's now torn between his isolation, and his care for his friends. Despite this, he will continue to punish himself and walk this path alone- it's much harder than he'd originally intended. Pushing his friends away to complete his goal, because it serves as his only purpose in his eyes. Even if he knows it's wrong.
Tumblr media
Oito asks if spying on the 4th prince is for his convenience. Kurapika takes a moment, and tells her this is simply a strategic choice. I don't think he's lying, but I do think he wants to protect her, and wobble- while still keeping contact with the Prince.
At the moment, he will prioritize protecting the two of them. I think it happens to align with his goal, but it isn't necessarily for his convenience.
The reason I bring this up is to highlight that despite the fact he wants to push his friends away, and work towards his goal- he won't risk the lives of others.
Tumblr media
He says he will repeat it as many times as needed, that they are there to protect her and the prince. To trust him.
Tumblr media
He tries to be someone who will risk everything for the sake of recovering the eyes, but deep down he can't. Much like how he cannot truly abandon his friends, only isolate himself.
Kurapika is loyal, and unwilling to sacrifice others for the sake of his goal. He forced a stalemate, and took advantage of his nen knowledge to level out the playing field. A stalemate buys them more time, making it so it won't be as easy for experienced nen users to take advantage of non nen users.
It was a brilliant idea that may be risky, but also offers protection for him, and the queen.
Tumblr media
During this conversation with Mizaistom, it's clear that Kurapika has not abandoned all of his morals, he wants to avoid killing the Prince despite having the remaining eyes. He would rather try other methods, and is opposed to killing.
Mizaistom and Kurapikas dynamic is one of my favorites, but that's for another time.
That's all I have to talk about, for now. I wanted to go over my favorite panels, and his relationships in the succession war.

Kurapika Fanfic:
Oito Scolds Kurapika for not taking care of himself.
Kurapika paces the length of the room. Muttering incoherent sentence to himself.
THROB.
“Kurapika?”
THROB.
“Kurapika!”
The Queen’s soft but commanding voice snaps him back to his surroundings. He curses himself for letting his awareness slip. He knows that could be a fatal mistake.
THROB.
“Your majesty?” He winces as he tries to focus his eyes but the migraine is messing with his vision.
“You’ve been pacing for a very long time. Is there a new development I should know of?” The young mother inquires, eager to ease the fate of her daughter.
“No ma’am, I was going over old information. I apologize for being distant.”
THROB.
He restrains himself from wincing again, but his breath hitches all the same. This damn migraine wont go away.
The Queen furrows her brow and repositions the sleeping Prince in her arms, “You should eat something and take a rest. A headache like that wont go away on its own.”
Now its Kurapika’s turn to frown. “I dont think I should —“
“Bill is plenty capable of keeping watch.” The Queen interrupts.
“Your majesty, I —”
“Please,” Oito snaps, “you haven’t even slept since the incident. If woble is going to survive this we can’t have you withering away.” Her glare is stoney and unwavering. Kurapika cringes at the sudden noise assaulting his pounding head. “That might sound harsh and honestly I don’t care, you need to hear it.”
Kurapika is rendered speechless, it’s unlike the soft spoken Queen to raise her voice.
“Now go have a meal, and get some rest.” The Queen orders before curtly switching her attention to the now awoken Woble.
“Yes’m,” Kurapika nods. He turns on his heals, glancing at a wide eyed Bill, before averting his gaze in shame.

In the Belly of the Whale (Oito)
I wrote another character study haiku for the Greed Island server's poetry event.
Hunter x Hunter Succession Contest arc spoilers under the cut!
Trading rags for silk; That was what she used to want. She fled from the streets.
Dazzled by his wealth Barely old enough to wed She married the king.
It was not for love. Relegated to eighth place She bore him a child.
Now she hesitates. Be careful what you wish for. Was the cost too steep?
A mere babe in arms Is forced to vie for the throne Against her siblings.
All Oito wants now Is to protect her daughter And try to survive.
What horrors may lurk In the belly of the whale? She must plea for aid.
A bodyguard by The name of Kurapika Answers her letter.
He holds Woble’s gaze, Steel softening in his eyes. There may yet be hope.

Christian Symbolism in the Succession war
We've all seen Chrollo's cross, but there are some other references to biblical stories in the succession war that I think bear mentioning. We're going to start with the most obvious and work our way down to ones I think are a stretch.
Crown of Thorns
Tumblr media
Morena's design features a halo or crown of thorns wrapped around her head, similar to classic depictions of the martyrdom of Jesus. The crown of thorns is the ultimate symbol of self sacrifice, the incarnation of the suffering of Jesus on the cross.
Tumblr media
Morena's suffering, and perception of the world because of her suffering, makes her view herself as a twisted savior, here to save humanity from itself by purging all of it. In this way, she views herself as a martyr along side Jesus.
If the parallel holds true, I would expect Morena to die after being betrayed by one of her "disciples"
Samson and the Lion
Tumblr media
Our first introduction to Prince Benjamin is as he strangles a lion while talking with his brother. This is possible a reference to the biblical story where Samson, looking for a wife, happens upon a lion and, using the power of god (and anime) beats the fuck out of so he can marry a Philistine lady. Later, she begs to know the secret of his power, and after revealing his power come from his uncut hair, she cuts it off in his sleep and turns him over to the Philistines.
Tumblr media
Samson is the biblical ideal of strength. His faith is not perfect, his morals are iffy, and he's not the sharpest tool, but he is physically and spiritually powerful. This is emblematic of Benjamin's strong Nen and physical power.
If the parallel holds true, Benjamin will be betrayed by a woman and left to his enemies.
Virgin Mary and Jesus
Tumblr media
The virgin Mary and Jesus are symbols of innocence, hope and the future. Woble might be a good allegory for baby jesus, as he is saddled with the sins of others, and while Oito is (probably) not a virgin, she is young, innocent, unwilling to watch people die quietly and fiercely protective of her child.
Tumblr media
If the parallel holds true, Woble will become a symbol of hope and purity and, ultimately, not outlive his mother.

We know Tserriednich being the fourth prince is a deliberate choice since 4 in china means death, but I would like to take a look at Oito and Theta too.
Oito is eight in portuguese and this number is the opposite of four, it means prosperity and fortune. On the other hand theta is the eight letter in the greek alphabet, nontheless it was also used as a symbol of death.
I'm not sure what this could mean, but maybe we can hope Oito's fate is a good one, and Theta...well she is too close to Tserriednich, I have always been afraid she won't make it, but I also think she'll play an important role on defeating Tserriednich.
Or maybe I'm seeing things, I don't know
PS: Theta also represents the number nine, it means eternity.
