HxH Uvogin Death Foreshadowing (???)

I actually wanted to make a different post today but PLANS CHANGED DRASTICALLY WHEN I WAS JUST WATCHING SOME HXH YORKNEW CITY EPISODES- I originally wanted to just listen to something while doing my boring paperwork- BUT I FF NOTICED SOMETHING

(sry for the german but I had no other screenshot rn) This is what happens in Episode 43. Nothing new, I know. Bro summons his lil guys and gets killed. bUt MaSaK, wHaT iS sO sPeCiAl AbOuT tHiS nOw? HEAR ME THE FUCK OUT- U see the name of the ability?? LOOK AT IT. LOOK.

"the eleven from the [...]" bro's ability is to summon ELEVEN of these cute guys. as we all know these boyos get killed by Franklins gunfire. Plus bro himself dies. RIP there btw-

bUt MaSaK- NO HEAR ME OUT you know who I think of first whenever I see/hear the number ELEVEN? YEAH U GUESSED IT. UVOGIN. cuz 11 is his number. No shit sherlock. AND GUESS WHAT HAPPENS TO UVO. Yes. HE FUCKING DIES. (sry for putting salt in the wound here rn) BUT THINK ABOUT IT- And that's not all.

When the bro dies, his last words are: "Guys flee! And tell the Boss-" and then he dies.

So what I wanna say with this now, this guy died by protecting his people (at least he tried, okay). He sacrificed himself for the rest of the group. Uvo literally did the same. THEY HAVE A DAMN SIMILAR DEATH.

ALSO, there's more :) 3 of the bodyguards died during this. And now use your memory system to remember how many legs the spider lost in the yorknew city arc. Yes 3. Uvogin, Pakunoda and Hisoka. I know Hisoka didn't die and he never really was part of the troupe, like the others. But an empty place is an empty place.

I obviously can only say this as a theory. Idk if this was intended by Togashi at all. BUT IF IT WAS- THEN OMG- THEN THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST FORESHADOWINGS I EVER SAW. IT'S BEEN OVER 4 YEARS SINCE I WATCHED THIS ANIME AND I AM REALIZING THIS NOW.

In addition,

when Feitan killed the one Mafia dude who didn't die with the others that Franklin killed, the guy says somethig like "we gonna hunt you down and kill you and your family" Feitan being Feitan just laughed it off. But Feitan ff jinxed it.

Live Uvo reaction when he finds out Feitan jinxed it all from the beginning-

Kurapika | yorknew 1999 vs 2011

[nynyhaha]

Do you think Chrollo expected the Troupe to last 12+ years? The expectations set at the start largely determine his current views. How good did they do?

Now Ofc he’d want it to ✨last forever✨ or as long as possible,but how long did he think they’d actually get to live?

Chrollo in yorknew carries himself with a confidence that the Spider will live on way beyond him,we somewhat feel like the adventure is only starting. But at the same time he is lost and doesn’t really know the direction the Troupe is heading in.

At the start he mentioned offering up their lives in order to: -find Sarasa’s murderers and get revenge -free Meteor City from crime/mafia so that no child can be kidnapped again

We know the troupe later also broke the deal where Meteorians are exchanged for money. This is a significant achievement,it implies the Spider provides enough money instead,and it hints at the fact that the previous points are already done,that Chrollo has achieved what he planned.

Those were things that he was ready to die for,things for which the others were also ready to sacrifice themselves. And that’s what they kind of expected,right?

My theory is that they greatly surpassed their expectations.

If they were still fighting for any of the above,we wording have this sense of directionless roaming around that is present in the yorknew arc. The Spiders seem to be beyond the theme of revenge unless it directly affects them. Uvo even said he hates those who fight him for revenge reasons (and I wonder why).

Maybe little Chrollo would’ve marvelled at the progress he managed to make in those years,but he probably couldn’t know how it would affect his psyche. He knew he’d become a “villain” but he probably meant that he’d be fighting for a noble end using bad means. What is that end now?

The Spider needs some sort of plan to justify its existence. For its death to be a tragedy,it needs the will to live and some goal to achieve. Or is it a question of a candle stump losing its flame once it’s burned down?

Should the Spider just retire?

If they have achieved all of their previous goals,the answer could well be yes. Sadly those goals aren’t milestones that you have to reach once and for all,but Meteor City’s safety is fragile and needs maintenance.

And yet,it’s never stated as the reason why the Spider has to keep moving. Maybe to the characters it’s obvious,but we as the audience can only speculate. Also it would make the problem way too simple.

“Oh the Spider is still needed back at home” Ofc it is,duh,but that’s not enough to satisfy the quest for meaning.

It would be interesting if the Troupe started out as a team that’s some sort of necessary evil (and the backstory chapters present it in such light) but now that all it’s done it’s no longer necessary so just evil, but they don’t see it as such.

You know,a band of child soldiers that grew up and is now terrorising the world because their original purpose is completed.

But how is the Troupe unnecessary when it’s the solution to the Mafia problem? It’s rather that they don’t know how much more that can do and how much of that will matter at the end.

No one is forcing them. All of their duty is “self inflicted”,they chose to carry that burden.

Are they suffering from success?

Chrollo thought on the way to avenging Sarasa he might loose his own life or some of his friends. He made that commitment still,and then they all survived. Ok,they lost number 8 & 4,but those weren’t original members and it’s still lucky that the rest made it all the way to yorknew. Yk,after they’ve already done what they wanted (and yes,they have already found the murderers,fight me on that, I KNOW its the truth).

So Uvogin and Pakunoda didn’t die on the way,but after they’ve arrived at the top.(But at the top there was nothing :()

Is that to say that they could’ve hopped off and lived a safer life? At this point they were unable to. Much like Chrollo,they might not have a proper self outside the Spider. AND YET the reason it hurts so much is because they died for the Spider after it lost its main goal. This is why Chrollo quickly needs a reason to ground it all since they couldn’t have died for nothing.

There must be a reason why they’re still doing this other than “we can’t otherwise”, right?

RIGHT?

In conclusion, Chrollo is what happens after one survives the “Kurapika arc” and completes his revenge. He might be free to live on,but after he threw away his life and morals already,this existence looses meaning and so do all deaths for the sake of it.
