Agon is a middle-aged male swordsman and Hunter Exam candidate (examinee number 281) known for his distinctive mantle-like cloak and left-handed swordsmanship.
Agon is a middle-aged man whose most recognizable feature is the large mantle or cloak that covers his torso.
This gives him a somewhat imposing and seasoned warrior look, fitting his status as a veteran-style swordsman.
He carries himself like an experienced fighter rather than a rookie.
His interactions suggest he is relatively calm and sociable for an exam participant, not overly aggressive or hot-headed.
Agon’s primary weapon is a single-edged sword, which he wields with his left hand.
His left-handed style makes his movements a bit less predictable to opponents who are used to right-handed fighters.
The mantle he wears over his body can also serve as visual misdirection in combat.
Combined with his sword, this creates the image of a practical, battle-tested swordsman rather than a flashy specialist.
Agon participates in the Hunter Exam with the examinee number 281.
He survives long enough to reach the Third and Fourth Phases of the exam, showing that he has above-average skill compared to many other candidates.
Third Phase
During the Third Phase of the exam, Agon is shown chatting casually with Supa.
This small scene highlights that he is capable of friendly conversation and is not solely focused on hostility or rivalry.
Fourth Phase and Death
In the Fourth Phase, Agon is involved in events surrounding a confrontation with Hisoka Morow.
When Hisoka engages in a one-on-one fight, Agon ends up being used as a decoy at the crucial moment when Gon Freecss attempts to steal Hisoka’s identification plate.
During this maneuver, Agon becomes the target and is killed as part of the clash.
His death underscores both the ruthlessness of the Hunter Exam and the danger of being caught between stronger combatants like Hisoka and Gon.
