More literally, he says 'ja nakya dame nan da,' a common saying in Japan that can also mean 'I love you.' Now, I'm not saying Gon is confessing to Killua, but one has to wonder why exactly Togashi used this specific set of words, knowing it had such a double-meaning?
>In chapter 166 (episode 70), Gon says Killua has to be one holding the ball. >Now with unlimited power, Togashi plans on getting revenge on Shueisha for canning Trouble Quartet all those years ago by making Killua gay and they can’t stop him.
>Afterward, he was able to negotiate a contract with Shueisha where he would get full ownership over Hunter x Hunter, thus allowing him to do whatever he wanted (explaining his erratic schedule that would get any other author fired). >Togashi wanted to publish Trouble Quartet, a sports shōnen about a crossdressing gay boy, but Shueisha shut him down.
