The arc’s legacy extends beyond Hunter x Hunter itself. Its willingness to deconstruct the shonen hero journey, to end a climactic battle not with triumph but with a silent, mutual acknowledgment of worth between dying enemies, influenced later works like Attack on Titan and Demon Slayer. It demonstrated that a battle manga could engage with complex moral philosophy without sacrificing emotional impact. In rankings on community hubs like MyAnimeList, the arc is consistently cited as a high point of the series, often praised for its ambition and unflinching darkness.
