Seaquant is a man of average height and build. He wears a light brown jacket with fur covering the shoulders and chest. He has spiky brown hair, which is kept up with a white head band.[1]

Personality[]

When Seaquant came in contact with Gon, Kurapika, and Leorio he acted in a cordial manner.[2] He has a blunt opinion on his employers the Zoldyck Family and their staff are in his opinion too uncanny for words.[1]

Background[]

24 - Seaquant meets Mike

Seaquant meets Mike (in a 2011 anime adaptation-only moment)

Three years before the beginning of the series, Seaquant and about 100 of his henchmen[note 1] came to attack Kukuroo Mountain, but they were annihilated by Canary, a 10-year-old trainee attendant of the Zoldyck Family. Greatly shocked, he begged to become a servant of the Zoldycks. He is now good friends with Zebro, the old janitor of the Zoldyck Family.[1]

Plot[]

Hunter Exam arc[]

Lead by Zebro to his house, Gon, Leorio, and Kurapika are greeted by Seaquant and notes that Zebro doesn't take a liking to just anyone. Nonetheless, he tells them to make themselves at home, to some extent.[2]

On the day Gon and friends leave Zebro and Seaquant's house to finally meet up with Killua, Seaquant tells Zebro, he recognizes talent in the three for becoming Pro Hunters. And while Zebro wonders if the three will be able to make it to the household. Seaquant laughs and tells him to not dream so much and reminds Zebro about an incident three years ago, when a Blacklist Hunter brought about 100 of his henchmen[note 1] to assault the mansion and every single one of them were decimated by a 10-year-old girl. Zebro recalls that after the incident a Blacklist Hunter was hired. Seaquant confesses it was weird and terrible to fathom, but claims everyone must stay in their own world. But goes onto say the entire Zoldyck Family and employees are too uncanny for words.[1]

13th Hunter Chairman Election arc[]

After the death of Chairman Netero, Seaquant appears at the Hunter Association's HQ to participate in the first round of the 13th Hunter Chairman Election.[3] After the second round of the election, Seaquant is brought up to date about Killua's whereabouts and his demeanor at the time. He also informs Zebro about Killua's friend Gon's condition, making Zebro anxious about Killua's well being.[4]

Abilities & Powers[]

Seaquant has all the benefits granted by his status as a Hunter. As a Blacklist Hunter, Seaquant must have decent strength and it is presumed that he and his group managed to go through the Testing Gate to face Canary.[1]

Nen[]

Being a Hunter, it is assumed that he can use Nen, but it is unknown to what extent because it was never shown or mentioned.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 1.2 The misconception that Seaquant was accompanied by 100 other Blacklist Hunters (presumably also from the Hunter Association and not just amateur hunters) is disproved by the fact that in his speech (from Chapter 41, page 2, panel 6) he is talking about one Blacklist Hunter that took about 100 of his henchmen/followers with him to attack the Zoldycks; which is in accordance with what is said in the official translation, although in the Viz version the term "thugs" is used instead of "henchmen".
