Hunter x Hunter Is About to Drop Its Most Unsettling Merch to Date

Hunter x Hunter may still be on a hiatus, but the franchise is still making headlines despite the absence. After all, fans of the hit series are always looking for a good story, and Premium Bandai just chucked one into the void of social media. It was bound to happen after Hunter x Hunter shared its next merchandise wave, after all, and we have its creepiest collectible to thank for all the attention.

As shared by Sora News 24, the Hunter x Hunter ordeal began when fans in Japan caught wind of its newest merchandise wave. It was there fans were shown a plushie backpack inspired by the anime, but its horrifying look make netizens do a double take. After all, Hunter x Hunter is getting its own New Beast backpack, and it is actually terrifying to look at.

As you can see above, the plush backpack recreates the Nen Beast in all its buggy glory. The figure is covered in black spots and has several arms sprouting from its sides. When you look at its face, the plush has a sucker-shaped mouth that gapes in an uncomfortable way, and it even has a tail. When fans wear the backpack, it is meant to look like the Nen Beast is crawling on your back, and the sight is nothing short of nightmare fuel.

Now, if you do not recall this beast, Hunter x Hunter introduced the monster once Abengane summoned it. It was a horrifying sight in the manga, and now, Premium Bandai has brought the beast to life as a piece of niche merchandise. So if you feel like dropping $60 USD on this bag, well – who are we to stop you?

What do you think of this wild piece of merch? Are you going to add this plushie to your Hunter x Hunter collection? Share your thoughts with us in the comments section below or hit me up on Twitter @MeganPetersCB.
