Overview

Enchanted by the magic of the word “unknown,” those who pursue its power are known as Hunters. As a child, Gon learned from Kite—a Hunter who visited Whale Island—that his father, Ging, long believed dead, is not only alive but a legendary Hunter. Now twelve years old, Gon leaves home to take the perilous Hunter Exam, determined to follow in his father's footsteps and meet him at last. Alongside the companions he meets on his journey—the assassin's son Killua, the vengeance-driven Kurapika, and the aspiring doctor Leorio—Gon confronts extraordinary trials that test his strength, wit, and spirit. This dynamic stage play adaptation brings the iconic "Hunter Exam" and "Zoldyck Family" arcs to life, capturing the adventure, friendship, and high stakes of the beloved series. The question hangs in the balance: Will Gon succeed in becoming a Hunter?
