Alright, I just need to crush anyone who attacks us on the Dark Continent. You take care of the hardest tasks until we get there.
~ Kanzai responds to the Zodiacs about his mission to bring Beyond Netero at the Dark Continent

Kanzai is one of supporting characters of the anime/manga series Hunter x Hunter, he is the Zodiacs member under the codename Tiger and a professional treasure hunter.

He is voiced by Ryōta Ōsaka in Japanese version of the 2011 anime, who also voiced Eijun Sawamura from Ace of Diamond, Sadao Maō from The Devil Is a Part-Timer!, Ikki Kurogane from Chivalry of a Failed Knight , Ryuu Yamada from Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches and Marco Bott from Attack on Titan, and by Alejandro Saab, who also voiced Tatsuya Shiba from The Irregular at Magic High School and Leon from Pokémon anime.

Personality[]

Kanzai has shown to be quite temperamental and is often observed yelling at the people around him, he tends to become impulsive by nature but can also be good-natured. He is shown to be clueless about information that even a child would know, for example, he doesn't know who King Nasubi was, while 99% of high school kids know about him or what the Dark Continent means, to the point of not even remembering the kanji. for "election". While he is aware of this, he becomes infuriated when mocked, such as when Pariston teases him for his limited vocabulary and poor mathematical ability, he also sometimes exhibits childish behavior, such as reacting angrily to Mizaistom's announcement that a spy it is probably hidden in the Zodiacs. Kanzai is negative about people like Hisoka, whom he dismissively calls a "murderer"; he even wonders why someone like him could have any interest in electing the new president of the Hunter Association.

Powers and Abilities[]

As a member of the Zodiacs, Kanzai maintains a high level of authority in the Hunter Association, the fact that he sparred with Isaac Netero and thinks he is stronger than Morel and Knov means that he is a powerful fighter and skilled Nen user. During the first round of the president election, Hisoka rates Kanzai's overall strength as 85, a score above most professional hunters, on the other hand, he obviously needs intelligence and knowledge, leading the other zodiacs to question how he managed to get ahead become a Hunter.

Trivia[]

  • His baseball uniform is a reference to the popular Hanshin Tigers baseball team. Its name was also derived from the Kansai region, where the Hanshin Tigers are based. Kansai are also portrayed in a stereotype as ill-tempered and idiotic, reflected in Kanzai's personality traits.
  • A running gag has his opposition to Pariston and one of the other zodiacs (usually Mizaistom, but also Pyon) complaining that he only makes things worse.
