I would like to know why he is able to do pretty much anything. He seems to be
almost unkillable, except when Gon surprises him. I am only on episode 4, so
try not to spoil anything please :)

question
hunter-x-hunter
How is it that applicant 44 is able to turn into smoke and do magic if he is just another contestant?


You're right to think he is NOT just another participant. He is already at
hunter level which co-incidently includes several other participants in this
exam as well (Good luck figuring them out!). As Happy Face said, you'd need to
see more to understand the actual mechanics between the "magic" Hisoka(the
Participant 44) uses.

To give you a bit more info without spoiling anything. I'll block quote the
wiki intro about Hisoka on HxH wiki.

> Hisoka is portrayed as entirely self-serving, self-absorbed, and selfish; he

> excited to meet any new people he deems worthy of fighting or anyone with

Long story short he is an anti-hero, who is completely self-centered and a
Sociopath. He is one of the best characters in HxH viz. saying something as
HxH has great character development!

Edit: Just saw your username "DeadPool" and Hisoka fits the role of Deadpool
in HxH universe.
