Yoshihiro Togashi reveals that Gon was originally set to be unable to pass the Hunter exam in Hunter x Hunter

Japan's TV Asahi's talk show "イワクラと吉住の番組" recently produced a special project about the hiatus maniac Togashi (Yoshihiro).

During the show, members asked questions, and Yoshihiro Togashi responded to handwritten letters, sharing many unknown details of comic creation.

Yumiko Seki, a member of "Sakurazaka46", asked how much content had been planned when the series first started. Togashi replied that the first three chapters had already been set up as "an alternate world story centered on the hunter profession." This setting was made in the hope that the series could be serialized for a long time, so the story began with the protagonist Gon taking the hunter exam.

However, Togashi revealed that the original plan was for Gon to fail the Hunter Exam and the content to take place a few years later, but this idea was ultimately rejected by the editor.

In addition, Togashi Yoshihiro also said that when constructing the story, he had already thought about the appearance of Kiyomizu and Hisoka in the Hunter Exam, and they would become the main characters in the plot. All the details would be completed at the last minute, and even the content of the Hunter Exam was decided at the last minute, because he wanted to enjoy the situation of "not knowing what will happen".

It seems that Togashi's love for taking breaks may be due to his "creative habits".
