KilluGon reference in the Succession War arc (Togashi himself made a submission to the killugon playlist) (NOT CLICKBAIT!)
guys holy shit okay so I was looking through the succession war arc because I wanted to find that panel of the CANON HXH LESBIAN KISS but I got sidetracked and started reading chapter 375 where I found something that ended up changing my entire life trajectory :

Here in chapter 375, Tyson is giving "the teachings of love" . Tyson goes on speech that could easily apply to both Gon and Killua post-separation. We're not too sure of what the two are currently up to, but it's reasonable to assume that this is how they feel, considering they had wished to always be by each other's sides.
And then in the next panel, it is said that the speech was just a rip off of Nishino Kana's lyrics. "Darling" and "No Matter How Much" (Tatoe Donna Ni) are the two mentioned Nishino Kana songs.
Out of curiosity, I looked up both songs and the english translated lyrics of them.
That's when it happened...

It's pretty damn obvious so I won't dissect it too much, but both lyrics could apply to Gon and Killua. "Darling" being from Killua's side and "No Matter How Much" from Gon's.
you must be pretty strange for someone who's said to be selfish.
i wish i hadn't said those selfish things, if i could erase what i said that day...
i have to pick up all of your scraps, always always i grumble.
i got too spoiled by your kindness.
for someone who wants to be by your side forever and ever.
if i'd stuck it out, would you still be by my side?
I mean, c'mon. The lyrics are soooo killugon coded, and the fact that Togashi paired these two particular songs together. There's no way someone could listen to them and not make the connection to Gon and Killua.
I even added some silly little visuals for your convenience :

Feel free to interpret this as platonic if you want. Idk how, but go ahead!
This was all just an observation of the two particular songs mentioned after a speech about missing someone and wishing you could go back to those days. It could totally just be a coincidence. Just Togashi being the silly man he is, picking two completely random songs that have absolutely no significance whatsoever to the previous events of the main storyline while being totally unaware of the similarities!
Well, that's all I have to say for today. These breadcrumbs will keep me fed for a good while. If you've made it this far, thank you for reading. I have lots of drafts for killugon evidence that I hope to post soon.
