r/HunterXHunter Enhancer Hatsu u/Tenshi_14_zero So we all know that Enhancers are the simplest of the nen categories, so most Enhancers' hatsu is basically just making their punches extremely powerful using nen.

For example, Gon's Jajanken, Phink's Ripper Cyclotron, and Uvogin's Big Bang Impact are all just enhancing their fists (with different conditions and limitations and advantages/disadvantages etc) but they're still basically the same.

Is there any other unique way of creating a hatsu based on enhancement that isn't as simple (or that I may have overlooked)? Does anybody have any ideas?? I just can't get over the fact that nen is so diverse and lets you create so many different abilities, yet enhancers are stuck with the same "super punch" with small variations.

Share51 Comments5 Best Write a comment daKenji • 51d kurapika's healing thumb is an enhancement technique isnt it?

24 mrfoseptik • 50d Yes, it is.

3 TommyLindo • 51d Palm's Black Widow is very cool.

17 Tenshi_14_zero • 50d Was that enhancement?? I completely forgot about it

2 Spriggs5 • 50d I came just to put this because it's my favorite enhancement tech.

1 112lion • 50d It’s enhancement and manipulation

1 IJ23 • 49d Her clairvoyance is a great enhancement ability as well. Really pushes the boundary of what you could even consider enhancement.

1 SomeGUy464636 • 51d I have an idea for enhancer hatsu. And i think it would fit nobunaga perfectly. Basically a hatsu where the user takes a different stance to change their attack mode. So basically they could take a stance and then activate speed mode, and by enhancing their legs, gain more speed while reducing attack power. Or take a stance for attack mode where they lose speed in exchange for attack power.

11 Kurarpikt • 51d Great idea.

It's a bit like Netero who take the same position before attack.

Nobunaga should also enhance his Katana.

4 IntusLegere • 51d Maybe he could even use a special stance that enhances his En radius in 50%, making it reach 6m!

4 Metalwater8 • 51d Alright here are some right of the top of my head. Granted all of this is very simple. Enhance eyesight to the point where you can see extremely far and follow every movement of multiple enemies. Enhance your skin to make it extremely hard to the point you don’t even need a nen barrier around you. Think unbreakable skin. Enhance healing factor pretty self explanatory honestly. Enhance your hair to make it extremely tough or sharp then combine it with manipulation to control it. Enhanced reflexes/ sense may make you able to dodge almost anything And finally my favorite would to enhance your body and incorporate breakdancing into your fighting style. Honestly doing windmills and creating cyclones is pretty cool to me.

5 Hailthereaper • 51d I've always had one that's enhancement transmutation And emitter. Its simple transmuting your aura to wind enhancing that and emitting it. Obviously with time and practice you'll have more skills based around it but that's what it is in its simplest form

5 Tenshi_14_zero • 51d Is this basically airbending??

2 Hailthereaper • 51d Obviously except with nen there would be a bit more problems with it

2 112lion • 50d Vincent

1 IJ23 • 49d This seems more like manipulation rather than emission since you can't detach your aura with transmutation.

1 TBreaker20 • 51d Kastro could use that tiger fist or whatever, and let his clone use it. It's still a basic skill of enhancers, but being able to clone yourself and let your clone use enhancer abilities is still pretty awesome.

4 aka_jordy • 51d Lol enhance your stomach acids and projectile vomit to melt your enemies.

4 Lznjn • 50d Hahaha, ha, hmmmm...

2 maniacmartial • 51d Enhancement also allows you to enhance (too tired to think of a synonym) other physical abilities and processes. Aside from your physical strength and durability, you can also heighten your senses or increase your healing speed manifold, for example.

3 cows-pool • 51d I have a head cannon that Hisoka has an enhancer ability that he enhances his eyesight when he looks through his fingers while they're in a circle.

3 Shadopivot • 51d Like what Netero did right?

7 cows-pool • 49d Oh yeah he did do that. I just remembered Hisoka doing it early on in he series

2 MDbelial • 50d Clapping your hands to create a sound wave that acts as a momentary En kinda like post nuke Meruem, discovering all people/ objects in a certain proximity (maybe even visualize by closing your eyes) that can determine the entire terrain making it easier to navigate through mazes and detecting threats. Requires enhancing your hands and ears and maybe even your brain processing so it's easier to remember the area.

3 infinityxero • 51d I was thinking of this a few days ago. I would create a hatsu that enhances every single aspect of myself that's important in a battle: strength, speed, reflexes, healing speed, stamina, endurance, sight, smell, hearing, thought processing speed and even IQ just for the hell of it.

2 SomeGUy464636 • 51d That would need a lot restrictions.

6 chillboytweet • 50d Don’t you think it would be more beneficial to enhance just a few of those? If they’re spread out over all those aspects you wouldn’t be particularly strong or the best at any of them.

1 chikenlittle11 • 51d quick heal and enhanced senses.

2 eko1491 • 50d I've always wanted to see more healing type enhancement techniques. I think the only one in the story right now is Kurapika's healing thumb.

Palm's enhancement abilities were pretty cool (although it took me a while to understand how they fell under the enhancement category). Since enhancers can enhance objects as well, she enhanced the clairvoyant merman using her blood. She also enhanced her hair to create a full-body shield.

So yeah, it would be cool to see more healing techniques and enhancement of magical (or ordinary) objects. The enhanced punch is cool but there is much more too enhancement that I hope will be explored more.

2 IJ23 • 49d Palm definitely has the best enhancement hatsu hands down. Rather than focusing in offense like other enhancers she agmugments her defense by enhancing her hair and using it as armor which allows her to use all the rest of her nen for attack which is quite genius. She also has her crystal ball ability which pushes the boundary of what one might believe enhancement is even capable of. Its no wonder she has a 5 in ingenuity/talent in the databooks along with gon, hisoka, and netero.

2 Karistomp • 51d You can get Gin's natural talent if you enhance your ability to learn and make a hatsu out of it.

Youpi's hatsu (if i theorize correctly) is also a cool way to use enhancement.

Palm's hatsu, if what she does is enhancing her already existing clairvoyance.

Something that i thought about was using enhancement to increased a body function of a target in order to generate a negative effect. A simple example would be, lets say there's a fat which is slowly consumed by the brain to be able to operate, the use of my hatsu would be that i enhance the speed in which that fat is consumed, leaving the brain without that fat, and making it unable to operate correctly.

2 Tenshi_14_zero • 51d This is a unique idea! What I was looking for hmm… any idea on what kind of limitations it might have??

2 Karistomp • 50d Well, without the inclusion of emission, it already has a lot of tacit downsides.

First, you have to be melee, and melee = high risk.

You probably need to use shu to use it, which means if the target create some distance, there goes you hatsu. If someone is faster or has a way to consistently scape your grabs, well, there goes your hatsu.

Also the target has way too much time to react. I mean you getting close, using shu on the target, do the desire effect.

There are two ways to see how this hatsu would get its effect off. A) After its user's aura touch the desired body part/function to enhance the result goes from 0-100%; or B)the result is accumulative, meaning that every time the hatsu is used, is not complete immediately but for a fraction.

To further explain what i just said, i'll use the brain example again. Case A would be that, in the moment my aura touches the brain of the target, it consume 100% of that hypothetic fat. Case B would be that, every time my aura touches the traget's brain, it consume a % of the total fat.

Both ways have their pros and cons, a both would need a set of conditions and restrictions to further complement them.

2 Kurarpikt • 51d Is there any other unique way of creating a hatsu based on enhancement that isn't as simple (or that I may have overlooked)?

There are also enhancer that enhance weapon, for example Nobunaga, for his Katana. He's not in the top of the troupe arm wrestling, so I guess he does not strengthen his body. But it must also be possible to strengthen a shield, a firearm ...

The most original we met is the ability of Harkenberg's nen beast, enchance the group.

I think Komugi was an enhancer who could strengthen his mind with the condition of suicide if she lost. It's her personality that makes me think she belongs to this category.

There are some who control their bodies, Pâmu with their hair, or the shadow beast.

We could imagine an Enhancer that increases the weight, or his speed...

In fact all the enchancers must reinforce something it's for that their abilities are simple to understand. The most seen are those who strengthen their body and their favorite attack ...

1 FireWithFire213 • 51d I think Komugi was an enhancer who could strengthen his mind with the condition of suicide if she lost. It's her personality that makes me think she belongs to this category.

Imo I think she’s a specialist. Sure her personality is that of an enhancer, but she is classified as a nen genuis so she can only use her hatsu like neon Nostrade. She can’t use ten, ren, or zetsu, like ordinary nen users.

1 Kurarpikt • 51d but she is classified as a nen genuis so she can only use her hatsu like neon Nostrade. She can’t use ten, ren, or zetsu, like ordinary nen users.

That don't mean she's a specialist. It seems to me that Ponzu and Sukuwara also use nen without training and they are both manipulators. They have a strong affinity with animals.

0 FireWithFire213 • 50d That don't mean she's a specialist. It seems to me that Ponzu and Sukuwara also use nen without training and they are both manipulators.

Specialist is any Nen that does not belong to the other 5 categories, so Komugi can’t possibly be a Manipulator or Enhancer. Her ability doesn’t fit those rules to be considered one. Until we have concrete proof that komugi does the water divination test, its impossible to know really. As Hisoka said, the personality test is not accurate. Take a look a Shoot for example, “Manipulators are argumentative”, he completely breaks that rule. And if you want to go by that road, you can argue that Komugi is independent as well. Let’s take a look at other specialists, Chrollo, Binolt, Meleoreon, and Neon. They are supposed to be independent, like meleoreon, he refused to work with the chimera ants. Binolt turned to get revenge against people who treated him poorly. Komugi refused to let Meruem kill her when she told him to use Gungi to kill her. That takes some guts, and she follows her own set of rules like a specialist would. When she plays a match of Gungi, she opens her eyes, all of these things she does “independently” fit the specialist category. You could also argue that she is just being straightforward, but that is unlikely as she seems to be pretty motivated when it comes to Gungi, going as far to kill herself if she loses to support her family. Since we don’t know what she does with her Nen, it automatically belongs to the specialist unless Togashi says otherwise.

0 Kurarpikt • 50d Specialist is any Nen that does not belong to the other 5 categories, so Komugi can’t possibly be a Manipulator or Enhancer.

Why a manipulator ?

we have concrete proof that komugi does the water divination test, its impossible to know really.

That is why I said : "It's her personality that makes me think she belongs to this category."

1 FireWithFire213 • 50d Why a manipulator ?

Komugi gets better as she plays each game, so I don’t see her using manipulation. Unless she manipulates probability ? That wouldn’t make Much sense. By definition manipulators control others or themselves, it’s unlikely that she’s controlling anyone or Meruem for that matter.

That it was I said : "It's her personality that makes me think she belongs to this category."

I’m just pointing out that there is a high chance she could be a specialist. Personality tests are not always accurate.

2 Kurarpikt • 50d I don't say she's a manipulator. But why manipulators couldn't develop nen by themself ? If someone learn nen himself you think it's automatically a specialist ?

Personality tests are not always accurate.

I know that. Apart from her personality I find that her power corresponds to this category. But of course it's only my opinion.

1 •	FireWithFire213 • 50d I think it’s automatically a specialist if the Nen ability doesn’t fit in with the other 5 categories. Such as Neon’s “Lovely Ghostwriter” which tells the future. In komugi’s case, she developed or awakened her Nen by herself without ever knowing how to use Nen, which automatically makes her a specialist in my book. Manipulators generally don’t learn Nen by themselves unless they are particularly fond of an object or animal, like Gido from the Heavens Arena.

I don’t see how she could use Enhancement to make her skills at Gungi better. She records movements in her head as they come to her. The only way I think that would work is if she used Ko to speed the pathways of her brain, which would be pretty complex for an enhancer.

1 • •	Kurarpikt • 50d like Gido from the Heavens Arena.

Gido didn't learn nen by himself. He was awaken to nen after a fight. His opponent used nen against him when he had didn't learn it yet.

In komugi’s case, she developed or awakened her Nen by herself without ever knowing how to use Nen, which automatically makes her a specialist in my book. Manipulators generally don’t learn Nen by

We can not know that. We have only two examples. And for Komugi her type was never specified.

I would simply say that I do not see any reason why only the specialist would be able to learn nen by themselves. If a potential enhancer trains every day doing exercises comparable to nen I think he should be able to awaken this power... And Komugi put all her energy and concentration into his game.

But it's only my hypothesis.

1 • • •	FireWithFire213 • 50d I know a nen user awakened him, he was fond of his spinning tops is what I meant. Which is why he was able to use it effectively as stated by Wing.

Well Neon wanted to be a fortune teller every day, and she aspired to become one. Since Komugi is a Gungi world champion, and holds that title, she would obviously never want to lose against an opponent. After thousands of games, it’s natural that she awakened her Nen. In my opinion, potential specialists who have a high area of motivation towards something will generally become one. This is supported by the fact conjurers and manipulators have a 1% chance of becoming one later in life.

1 • • • •Continue Thread Good_Game_Mystic • 51d Since Prince Halkenburg’s nen beast (gargoyle) is an enhancer and its ability can affect multiple people, I’m starting to consider the possibility that enhancers can enhance the bodies of others or even heal them. Enhancers are also capable of being pretty proficient in emission so they might even be able to do it at a good range. We honestly haven’t seen anything like a medic in the hxh universe yet, so maybe enhancers make the best medics?

1 Tenshi_14_zero • 51d This is really interesting, someone else had mentioned enhancing another person's body too but who knows… ?

1 TheFang1236 • 51d I've always though of enhancing one's hearing (some way or another) to the point of being able to "listen" what other people is thinking. The restriction would be that this is only achievable while using headphones, also blocking your normal hearing (so you can't hear enviorenment sounds).

1 SerialBomb • 50d Hearing thoughts would fall into the specialist category.

Similar to pakunodas abiliy to read memories.

1 FireWithFire213 • 50d I’m thinking that you could enhance your movements to mimic the target’s movements while enhancing your fist. This would involve manipulation so it would be difficult to learn. But this would be pretty strong if your opponent relies on speed.

1 _Cross_43 • 25m I've come up with this Hatsu for awhile now ever since I've taken the Nen Quiz and found out that I was an Enchancer. I wanted to know what you guys think of it.

I call it, Karma System, since it has the potential of screwing me over one day due to the ridiculous Restrictions/Conditions I've applied to it.

Since my Base Physical Stats without Nen are fairly above average at most, I designed an Internal Type non-offensive/damaging Hatsu that Enchances my Physical & Healing attributes which is further strengthened by placing 2 Conditions/Restrictions on my self with the Vow of me Dying if either 1 are broken.

1st Condition is that Im not allowed to use any other Nen category other than the one I was born with. This Restriction further enchances my Physical capabilities & Senses immensely, an example would be like having the Strength & Durability of Uvogin with the Speed of Feitan. And since im sacrificing ALOT of my potential power with this Restriction, my Regeneration has also been Enchanced; Giving me 3 Stages of Healing.

1st Stage is simply a Human Being's natural Healing factor, except its boosted via my Enchancer affinity and the aforemention Restrictions.

2nd Stage is basically a stronger version of the 1st Stage where i have to manually stop whichever it is I'm doing and try to Focus on Healing whatever Cut, Bruise or Broken bone I have with the drawback of using a LARGE amount of Aura regardless of the amount of injuries I currently have (Aka: Cant spam it to heal every minor cut or bruise I sustain; Be smart when 2 use it as it leaves me open.)

3rd Stage is the final stage of my Regenerative abilities allowing me to ONLY Regenerate lost Limbs/Fingers. I am unable to Regenerate ANY organs like the Brain, Heart, Testicles etc. Since its been said somewhere in the Manga that recreating Bones & Tissue is EXTREMELY taxing, This Stage consumes MORE THAN HALF of my Maximum Aura amount, (Ex: With 150,000 MOP it would take more than half of it to regen a single limb, leaving me with something like 70,000 left to spare for Combat etc) And even after all of this I still have to be wary of Bloodloss, These Stages can close wounds & regen Limbs but it cant bring back lost blood; that has to return naturally so Im still suceptible to death via Bloodloss, Suffocation, Starvation etc.

2nd Condition is basically not allowing myself from creating/inventing an Offensive Hatsu using the Enchancer category, Im still allowed to use the basic & advanced techniques but no Damaging Hatsu (Ex: Ripper Cyclotron). Which means I fight using purely skill and Martial Arts (Kinda like Bisky). This grants me the inability to feel Pain; I can feel everything else but Pain kinda like Hisoka. Aswell as giving me some sort of mysterious sixth sense, very similar to what Pitou Had.

What do you guys think? I would love to hear your thoughts on it! It's also the very first Hatsu I've ever come up with.
