This choice: Chrollo Lucifer  •  Go Back...
Chapter #4

Chrollo Lucifer, from refusal to rebellion.

    by: Winnie the Pooh Author IconMail Icon
Chrollo comes from Meteor City, a place that doesn't exist on the maps. A place of waste. A city where people the world has decided not to see end up.
There, Chrollo grows up without rights, without a future, without a name that matters.

And in that void something subtle and poisonous is born: the frustration of those who have nothing to lose. Chrollo Lucifer is not a simple charismatic and ruthless villain. He is the symbol of a deep social wound: that of those who are born out of place in a world that has given them no chance.

The name Chrollo (Kuroro in Japanese) could be associated with "Kuro" which means black/dark and "Ro" which means echo. Darkness that spreads in silence or as an echo in the darkness. While the surname is a clear reference to Lucifer, the angel fallen into hell because of his insubordination.

Ended up in the underworld (in poverty and misery) he will silently fight to take back what was taken from him. Like Lucifer, Chrollo does not serve and does not obey. He organizes chaos with grace and cold blood, trying to take back what God (society) took from him.

His technique, Skill Hunter, allows him to collect the skills of his opponents and use them later, stored in a book.
This book becomes a collection of fragments of other people's power. Chrollo does not create, he appropriates, but also tries to understand what he gets.

Bauman, one of the most influential sociologists of our time, described liquid modernity as an era in which people become disposable objects. When they are no longer useful to the system, they are discarded.

According to Bauman, people who feel excluded can react in two different ways: they resign themselves to disappearing (depression, social loneliness) or they react with anger, reorganizing and shaping the world according to their rules (mafia organizations.)

"I never said it was right. Only that it was necessary."
Chrollo is the answer to a world that produces too much waste. He is the rib of a society that tears you to pieces, spits on you and complains about the way you react.

Chrollo does not seek power, money and does not seem to have any particular ambitions, he wants to be a coherent response to what has been given to him... or taken away.

THE END.
