Neferpitou

Neferpitou is a secondary antagonist in the anime and manga series Hunter × Hunter's Chimera Ant arc. Because the character's gender is uncertain, the pronoun "they" will be used in this article. They are Chimera Ants, and they are one of King Meruem's three Royal Guards, along with Shaiapouf and Menthuthuyoupi. Sometimes they are referred to as 'female,' as in the Hunter X Hunter Battle Collection game. At times, they and others use male pronouns to refer to themselves. However, this could also be owing to a paucity of gender-neutral terminology in Japanese.

Nonetheless, as the series progressed, they became more feminine. As one of Hunter X Hunter's stand-out villains, they deserve an honorable mention as a famous cat-femme rather than a straight-up girl. They were among the first Chimera Ants to master Nen, the series' mystical power source, and use it to manipulate the living and dead bodies. If that wasn't enough, they employ their medical expertise to interrogate subjects by directly influencing their brains.

Neferpitou is a chimeric ant with human and cat characteristics. They are largely humanoid, but have cat-like traits including cat ears and a tail. Neferpitou is the most human-like of the chimera ants. Neferpitou was devoted to the King and was willing to die for him. Pitou, the most curious of the three Royal Guards, was easily sidetracked and enjoyed to play, and according to Shaiapouf, would get carried away when having fun. Pitou was a cat Chimera Ant who enjoyed playing with their opponents as a cat would with their prey.
