Ging: So I have a son, I named him after me Mito: So, Ging Jr? Ging: lol no *peaces out*

ElNevets

Ging is probably my favorite character in the series other than Netaro. Spoilers: Ging has the ability to control the entire continent without anyone even hearing his name, and what he decides to do is make a once in a life time scavenger hunt for his son to find him whether gon wanted to find him or not. Being as important as he is, he has a lot of enemies, so it makes sense why he chose not to raise him.

I laughed a bit when Alicia said "oh hes being hunted, he doesnt want gon to be in danger" but it was a sad laugh. Ging Freecs is the biggest deadbeat in anime. He saw his son as a burden to his freedom and dropped him off with his family. Did he at least drop him with good people? Yes, but thats so much the very least he could do. Ging Freecs is a shit dad and a shit person. And Gon wants to meet him anyway.

Azu making me feel ancient, I’m out here catching strays lmao. I legit had that timbaland album burned off limewire on a cd that I used to listen to every day, that and pussycat dolls, eve, fergie, and shakira. Good vibes good times lol

NekoSoophie!

Justifying a character's actions is not the same as excusing them, im simply saying why Ging leaving Gon on Whale Island makes sense for his character... not that what he did was necessarily ok. Like i said... if he didn't want any family responsability he shouldn't have had Gon in the first place... so he's still guilty. However... his bad judgement regarding having a kid still doesn't take away the fact that he did made the right decision of at least leaving him with a Loving Family. It still makes him a shitty father... but not a terrible person overall. He's flawed... just like every other character in HunterxHunter.

Julio Castillo

your excusing Ging despite saying that's not what your trying to do. also saying "Ging did the best he could considering his character" means nothing when the entire point is that his character is shit

At the very least... Ging had the decency to leave Gon with people he knew would raise him well... and not abandon him in god-knows-where. Also he did not assume Gon's personality, he left the tape with Mito IN THE CASE that Gon became a Hunter and developed a strong desire to meet him, he instructed Mito to only give the Box to Gon IF he became a Hunter... and based on her expressions it seemed like Mito was still not gonna give it to him... until Gon re-stated that he still will look for Ging. The fact that Ging left Gon to be raised peacefully and in a stable home already means that he gave him the freedom to choose whatever lifepath he wanted, if Gon ended up wanting to be a constructor or anything else other than a Hunter then he would have continued his peacefull life without ever having to worry or think about his father. Also we have to take into account that if Ging decided to raise Gon by himself... Gon would've grown up without a stable home/life and potentially being on dangerous situations that he did not choose. As Ging himself stated... Hunters are often Selfish creatures and he obviously wasn't going to abandon his job as a Hunter even if he had children, so settling down on Whale Island was probably never an option for him. Im not trying to excuse Ging's decisions of course... after all if he didn't want to have Family responsabilities then he shouldn't have been fooling around and having a kid in the first place... im just trying to lay out the situation as objectively as possible... and given the kind of of character Ging seems to be... he made the best possible decision by leaving him on Whale Island to be raised by Mito.

15:12 Azu with a shotgun... How many did catch strays? o/

V_VMat

also best jojo character

I mean, think about it, Alicia: would it really have been better if he'd said stuff like "I love you" or "I actually care about you"? I'm pretty sure you would've ripped into him for it, saying that if he actually cared he would've stayed to raise him, or that he was just saying it for his own self-satisfaction. Bottom-line is, he abandoned his child and never looked back. Would you really appreciate him turning around after all this and trying to act like a dad, OVER A RECORDING? You would've definitely punched your monitor for real xD

HappyDoodads

Ging Freecs may well be the anime deadbeat of all time

Grei Glace

I mean yeah, Ging's a bad person. He's not arguing that. It's exactly what he says. He's not trying to justify his actions at all.

Hunter Bishop

Basically Alicia: This man and that man and that man over there has facial stubble...THEY ALL LOOK THE SAAAAAAME!

Xanis

Yeah, he's a shit.

Liesmith

Ging's parenting makes Goku look like Piccolo.
