In chapter 1 of _Inou Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de_ manga adaptation,
Andou made a reference to [Phantom
Troupe](http://hunterxhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Phantom_Troupe)'s leader [Chrollo
Lucilfer](http://hunterxhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Chrollo_Lucilfer) from _Hunter x
Hunter_ series, as pointed out by Tomoyo. (Note the matching cross-shaped
tattoo on his forehead).

What scene from _Hunter x Hunter_ is being referenced here? And what is the
context of that scene?

question
hunter-x-hunter inou-battle
What is the context of this reference to Chrollo Lucilfer in Inou Battle manga chapter 1?


The scene being referenced is Chrollo's response to
[Gon's](http://hunterxhunter.wikia.com/wiki/Gon_Freecss) (the protagonist)
question directed at him, "How can you kill people who have nothing to do with
you?"

For context, Chrollo is the leader of the Phantom Troupe, also known as "the
spider", a murderous group of thieves. In the Phantom Troupe arc, the scene in
which this reference comes from, the Troupe kills many people in Yorknew City
in order to steal goods from a large underground auction run by the mafia.

The scene that this is quoting comes from episode 56 of the 2011 anime,
["Beloved X and X Beleaguered"](http://www.crunchyroll.com/hunter-x-
hunter/episode-56-beloved-x-and-x-beleaguered-611499). The quote itself can be
seen at 16:30.
