because its vague and shes supposed to be able to pull random abilities out of a hat for the sake of the plot

That's not what Pitou is supposed to do, they're just supposed to be a healer that secondarily has good manipulation skills.

He can make my janken pon if you know what I mean

Man who cares, the autism over types is the worst part of HxH. Togashi needs to play less RPGs.

I like that you called it "autism". I'm actually autistic and spend so much fucking time thinking about nen and creating fanfic hatsus it might as well be my main hobby at this point.

It's not your hatsu that makes your type. Pitou could have her hatsu be whatever the fuck she wants since her Nen pool is so large the efficiency loss ends up not mattering. So her hatsu really doesn't need to conform to her type. Tailoring your hatsu to your type is something only tryhards do (i.e. Hunters trained in Shingen-ryu such as Killua, Kurapika etc).

Another example of a Nen user with a hatsu and type mismatch is Biske, who could afford to have her hatsu be a mix of conjuration and manipulation despite being a transmuter. You could count Kastro's hatsu as well in this, sorta, as it's a complex Nen application that relies on multiple types.

I'm not trying to disparage the appeal that the sheer numbers game has for some people, but with HxH in particular it really distracts from the rest of the manga. There are many things about Nen that are good and contribute to the story, but something like "Biscuit's hatsu is a mix of conjuration and manipulation despite being a transmuter" doesn't. This kind of thing should stay in supplementary materials.

Let's be honest. The hatsu sytem is useful for Togashi to write new abilities, but the reader can perfectly ignore it. Most abilities are extremely different and you could just consider them like stands from JJBA

autism isn't real
