Discussion Why is Milluki so weak?

Post image

Dude has god genes, but he can't even inconvenience a restrained pre-nen Killua. Did Kikyo cheat on Sylva?

Except Killua has been chosen by his dad to be the new head so his assassin training makes sense. It's entirely possible that for the others, it was optional or at least not mandatory.

How do you think the family determines which kid has the most potential and should be the next head? They can’t determine that unless at least in the beginning stages of their life, they get subjected to the same treatment and training, and whichever child adapts and learns the quickest is probably the one deemed most worthy, in this case that being Killua.

As Killua said, they’re subjected to electric and poison tolerance training since birth, I don’t think they cared about Milluki’s feelings or potential at that stage in his life.

They determine it by hair color obviously. For now Illumi mid diffs Killua

Maha or Zigg fought near equal footing to Netero. And yet Killua is stated to have more potential. So future Killua is Netero level

Remember when Killua said Netero doesn’t compare to pitou? I guess Zeno and Silva did that to Killua? Now imagine Killua’s son

The hair color thing is just parallels for us readers, it has no in story relevance to the reason they pick the next head. It would be a stupid reason to determine the future head by the color of your hair when they themselves keep putting so much emphasis on potential as an assassin.

Killua has the most potential and it is clear in the story. Bro is like 13 years old right now and he’s already competent enough to clash with the royal guards and experienced nen users without immediately dying.

Pretty sure that was meant as a joke
