... From what I can see it looks like Kurapika was just as stir-crazy as Gon was when he was younger.

I assume this is connected to the movie?

Wanting to get out of the village, maybe in spite of and because of the rule prohibiting anyone from going out.

compoundeyes: Yeah, it's the prequel!

Togashi has to develop Pairo somewhere.

Lmao the test Mito gave Gon was to tell him to catch a monstrous fish.

omg

Kurapika had to undergo some kind of written exam, which he aced with full marks.

CUTIES

Then this, talking about a second test, which will test his restraint or something.
