If you’re thinking about getting a Hunter x Hunter tattoo (or just love looking at them — same energy), welcome. I’ve rounded up a bunch of designs that hit different moods: sentimental, chaotic, spooky, and goofy. Sit back, scroll, and maybe bookmark the one that makes you want to text your tattoo artist immediately.
That framed Killua on the calf

Okay, first up: Killua framed on the calf. This one focuses on his eyes, almost like a snapshot that pulls you in — the black-and-gray work gives it real depth and intensity. It’s the kind of tattoo that says you admire his quiet strength and scary courage without shouting it from the rooftops.
Killua mid-Godspeed (electric energy vibes)

If you love power pieces, this blackwork/dotwork mashup captures Killua using Godspeed — electricity crackling through him, all tension and movement. It’s a bold way to nod to his training and that whole “resistant to electricity” thing, and honestly, it looks epic.
Hisoka’s playful wink — yes, just the eye

Hisoka’s eyes say so much: mischief, menace, and that weird charm he has. This little wink-focused piece is perfect if you love his trickster energy — more flirt with danger than full-on villain tribute. It’s sly, flirtatious, and kind of deliciously unsettling.
The Gon that shows how far he’d go

This leg piece captures one of the most gut-punch moments of the Chimera Ant arc: Gon against Neferpitou, when he uses that devastating forbidden Nen. The dotwork makes the emotional weight feel almost tactile — like the tattoo itself carries the story of sacrifice and rage.

A spider emblem in bold blackwork with a hint of red gives Hisoka’s mysterious vibe the spotlight. It nods to his ties with the Phantom Troupe and that deliciously creepy aura he walks around in. If you love his theatrical menace, this one’s gorgeous and symbolic.
Chrollo, framed and intense

Chrollo in dotwork, framed like a portrait — cool, collected, and a little bloody at the edges. The subtle red hint feels deliberate, like a tiny wink to his moral gray area. Great if you’re into the cold, calculating leader energy.
Kurapika’s revenge vibes with Chrollo’s face in the frame

This one layers Kurapika with Chrollo looming behind — heavy symbolism. Kurapika’s red eyes shine with vengeance, the chains represent Judgment Chain (yes, the spooky heart-piercing one), but there’s also the Healing Chain tucked in there to remind you: he’s more than revenge. It’s a whole story in one piece.
A playful troll crew on the thigh

This framed thigh piece goes whimsical — Gon, Illumi, Hisoka, and Killua drawn in a troll-y, playful style that’s full of color and personality. If you want something that makes you smile every time you see it, this mash-up of heroes and villains is pure joy.
Meruem with a Gungi piece — complicated king energy
Credit: guyeigel
Meruem holding a Gungi piece is one of those tattoos that holds an entire arc in a single image: ruthless leader meets the blind girl Komugi, his obsession with the game, and the slow unraveling of what it means to be human. It’s somber, beautiful, and quietly tragic.
Gon and Killua having a laugh
Credit: ink.ray
There’s something heartwarming about this dotwork/black-and-gray combo showing Gon and Killua in a casual chat — probably plotting or teasing each other about the next adventure. If you want a piece that’s about friendship more than tragedy, this is it.
Killua in dotwork — small, fierce, and private
Credit: mikeshine_tattoos
A rib tattoo you can keep to yourself if you want, showing Killua with that fierce look and a trace of blood. The dotwork emphasizes his intensity and resolve — a personal reminder of strength and not giving up.
Gon with Killua watching over him — protector energy
Credit: lizmunster
This thigh piece shows Gon mid-action while Killua stands behind with a hand on his shoulder — small but loaded gesture. It’s the perfect image for the kind of friendship that’s part battle pact, part family: protective, steady, and real.
A bold, contemplative Gon on the upper arm

Gon looking contemplative, captured with bold colors — it reads as determination and devotion. If you want a piece that celebrates willingness to sacrifice for friends (in a less tragic package than that other scene), this one lands beautifully.
Spirited Away meets Hunter x Hunter (soft and adorable)
Credit: renae.tattooer
This one blends Studio Ghibli’s charm with Hunter x Hunter warmth: Killua and Gon sharing a meal in one panel, and the Otori-sama creatures in the next. Rendered in sleek black and gray, it’s nostalgic and cozy — like a crossover hug.
Killua and Alluka being adorably awkward
Credit: robcuello.tattoo
This thigh piece captures the soft, protective bond between Killua and Alluka — both blushing like they don’t know how to be normal about feelings. It’s a sweet reminder that love in this world can be weird, fierce, and completely loyal.
Neferpitou — curious, cruel, and unforgettable
Credit: tattooputz
For fans who love the complexity of the Chimera Ants, this leg tattoo captures Neferpitou’s fascination with humans and her brutal, loyal nature. It’s chilling and beautiful at once — perfect if you appreciate morally grey characters who leave an impression.
Alluka’s Wish Granting on the forearm — whimsical but dangerous
Credit: allefh.ink
A forearm piece that shows Alluka’s bizarre wish-granting power: fun, whimsical, and sometimes catastrophically messy. The design captures her playful intent — she doesn’t mean harm, she’s just flipping the rules in the most chaotic way possible.
Kurapika’s chains on the hand — power you can’t ignore
Credit: animemasterink
Want that Kurapika energy? Chains wrapped around the hand make a badass statement: they represent his Nen ability and a commitment to fight for what’s right. It’s symbolic and fierce — a permanent reminder to stand by your principles.
A chibi Gon — small, simple, full of curiosity
Credit: icarotattoo.ink
If you want something minimalist and adorable, this chibi Gon on the shin is everything. Curious expression, tiny proportions, big heart. Perfect for people who want a subtle, cheerful nod to the show.
Leorio and Kurapika (and a little Gon cameo) — the unlikely trio
Credit: artemisxtattoo
We saved some love for Leorio — the one who’s got the softest intentions and the biggest heart. This dotwork piece of Leorio and Kurapika (with a hint of Gon) celebrates how different personalities can mesh into something meaningful. Add whoever else you love and make it your crew.
