Hunter x Hunter THEORY: Gon and Meruem - Parallel Journeys

The Chimera Ant arc is pretty straightforward in making you sympathize with the "villains" while demonizing the "humans". Gon and Meruem both go through huge changes in their character during this arc, but just how closely are they connected? Here's a hint I didn't mention in the video: Meruem is born, prematurely, on the same day that Gon is forced into a state of Zetsu by Knuckle's IRS.....

Watch as I compare/contrast the below scenes (and more) with Gon and Meruem to show how many of their experiences in the arc are practically identical. I know the two have been compared many times before but I believe this is different enough that many will find this enjoyable:

1. Gon fighting his first few Chimera vs Meruem's first interactions with humans.
2. Gon's fights with Knuckle vs Meruem's Gungi games with Komugi
3. Gon seeing Pitou heal Komugi vs Mereum's conversation with Netero
4. Gon finding out Kite is dead vs Meruem finding out he's going to die.
