00:00Killua was born on 7-7, July 7th, and that date suits him perfectly.
00:04July 7th in Japan is Tanabata, the festival of two separated beings who can only be reunited once.
00:09'Only once a year.
00:10And frankly, it's hard not to think of Killua.
00:12Killua is a character split in two.
00:14On one side, there's the child, the funny kid, the loyal friend, the one who finally discovers what

00:20And on the other hand, there is the machine, the Zoldyck education, the violence, the killer instinct that we

00:27Its sign is cancer.
00:30And symbolically, cancer is often linked to family, protection, and emotional attachment.
00:34The problem is that for Killua, family is not a refuge, it's a prison.

00:43That's why Killua is so emotionally strong, because he's not just trying to become more
00:47powerful,
00:48He seeks to become someone else, someone who chooses, someone who stays, someone who protects.
00:52Gon and his friends.
00:53And the parallel with Tanabata becomes beautiful at that moment.
00:56Two separate worlds, two parts of himself finally trying to come together.
