    I feel like it's weird that they keep establishing the fact that you can obtain enormous power if you're willing to sacrifice.

    If that's the case, wouldn't every Nen user do that in a situation where there's about to die?

    "This guy is gonna kill me for sure, I'm gonna give up my Nen abilities forever to get crazy powerful for this fight." And then you win. Sure, you pretty much have to retire afterwards, but at least you're alive.

    If that were the case, wouldn't he also have, like, 2 foot long fingernails?

    Sigh... that's not how it works. It functions on a spiritual level, how much you're willing to sacrifice or restrict yourself from along with the importance you give to it translates into power. Sacrificing your already forfeited life doesn't mean shit, you can't bulshit your own Nen.

    It doesn't seem to be something you can rush either but i'm not 100% on that, Gon and Kurapika were boiling in hatred for a while before they actually made anything out of it.

    I call bullshit on this because without this powerup, Gon would have been totally dead here. Pitou was about to straight up fucking murder him, so he sacrificed nothing he wasn't about to lose anyway.

    So you can absolutely bullshit your own Nen.
