Ranking of the Best Hunter x Hunter Fights!

Ranking of the Best Hunter x Hunter Fights!

Hunter x Hunter boasts one of the most sophisticated power systems in anime history. Throughout the series, legendary characters have clashed in battles that are as much about intellectual strategy as they are about raw force.

Shonen series are celebrated for their high-octane spectacles, but Yoshihiro Togashi’s masterpiece elevates the art of the fight scene to a different level. By blending a fully realized power system with deep ethical and psychological stakes, Togashi ensures that every strike carries weight. While the series features dozens of breathtaking encounters, only a select few have become truly emblematic of its greatness.

Before we count down these legendary clashes, you can now find all our anime figures from Australia by clicking here:

6/ Gon vs. Hisoka

The showdown at Heaven's Arena is a masterclass in the "victory of the underdog." Gon trains relentlessly just to land a single punch on Hisoka, who watches with chilling anticipation for the boy's inevitable growth. While the fight is a visual spectacle, its true purpose is to illustrate the massive power gap that remains between them.

As Gon unveils creative tactics to catch his opponent off guard, Hisoka treats the duel like a sadistic lesson. It is a defining moment for the series, proving that in this world, massive leaps in strength are often just small steps toward a much larger mountain.

5/ Kurapika vs. Uvogin

Discover our Kurapika Figure - Hunter x Hunter™

Fueled by the massacre of the Kurta clan, Kurapika’s crusade against the Phantom Troupe is the series' most personal conflict. Facing the Spiders—a cruel and seemingly invincible force of nature—Kurapika is forced to gamble his very life.

Unlike the training-focused fights of the past, this battle highlights the grim reality of Nen contracts. Kurapika's unwavering resolve and the terrifying constraints he places on his own life result in a brutal victory, systematically dismantling the physically dominant Uvogin in a display of calculated vengeance.

4/ The Greed Island Dodgeball Match

The Greed Island arc serves as a perfect training ground for Gon and Killua, and its climax is unexpectedly found in a game of dodgeball. This match is a celebration of everything the audience has learned about Nen, brought to life through an unlikely alliance between Gon, Killua, Biscuit, and even Hisoka.

Facing the overwhelming power of Razor and his 14 Devils, the protagonists must achieve perfect harmony to survive. Though technically a game, the intensity and strategic depth make it one of the most memorable "battles" in the franchise, serving as the ultimate test of teamwork and growth.

3/ Gon vs. Neferpitou

This encounter is less of a fight and more of a tragic, one-sided slaughter. After clinging to a desperate hope throughout the Chimera Ant arc, Gon finally realizes that Kite is truly gone. In that moment of absolute despair, something inside him shatters.

By making a catastrophic Nen vow, Gon sacrifices his future and his life energy to attain a level of power that rivals the King himself. He crushes Neferpitou with terrifying ease, leaving fans both awestruck and heartbroken. "Adult Gon" remains a chilling reminder of what happens when a pure heart is pushed into the abyss.

2/ Chairman Netero vs. Meruem

Discover our Meruem Hoodie - Hunter x Hunter™

The pinnacle of the Chimera Ant arc is the philosophical and physical collision between Isaac Netero and the Ant King, Meruem. As a being born with near-infinite potential and intellect, Meruem represents an evolutionary dead-end for humanity. Only the Chairman of the Hunter Association, a man who spent decades perfecting a single punch, could hope to stand against him.

The resulting duel is a breathtaking sequence of strategy and speed. Netero’s 100-Type Guanyin Bodhisattva rains down thousands of blows, but Meruem’s cold brilliance eventually finds a breach. The fight concludes with a terrifying revelation about the "bottomless malice" of the human race, as Netero triggers a nuclear fail-safe to ensure the King’s downfall.

1/ Hisoka vs. Chrollo Lucilfer

Arguably the greatest battle in the entire series has yet to be animated. When Chrollo finally accepts Hisoka’s challenge, the two agree to a deathmatch in the Heavens Arena with no restrictions. What follows is a nightmare for the spectators and a dream for the fans.

Chrollo utilizes a complex web of stolen abilities—including mind control and explosive marks—turning the very crowd into weapons against the magician. It is the ultimate showcase of the series' combat logic, where every move is a calculated risk. While Chrollo technically emerges as the victor, Hisoka's refusal to stay dead ensures that their twisted rivalry is far from over.
