Machi

A female character from the popular anime and manga Hunter x Hunter (or HunterxHunter) by Yoshihiro Togashi. A Nen user who is a Transformation type, Machi is 24 yrs old, blood type A, 159 cm tall and 48 kg.

She is also a member of the Genei Ryodan or Phantom Troupe. She has purple hair and golden eyes. Machi is from the City of Falling Stars.

Machi seems to be one of the coldest members of the Genei Ryodan. The only person she has shown some real emotions to was Kuroro Lucifer, the leader of Genei Ryodan.

Hisoka seems to have an occasional interest with her, always hitting on her, although really hard to tell whether it's genuine or not, because of Hisoka's unpredictability. It is unknown whether or not she likes Hisoka.

Machi's Nen can transform into long, thin threads in which she uses in a diversity of ways, including seaming together old wounds to heal them, repairing back dislodged limbs (like what she did for Hisoka), and forming a noose that can strangle enemies with a tug.

Her thread's strength is proportional to the length. The longer the thread she makes, the easier it is to break.

Machi first appearance was in the manga in Chp 55 of Volume 7.

1. Hisoka: Anyways, tonight. What would you say of staying with me...?

Machi: {closes the door behind her just as Hisoka finishes talking}

Hisoka: ... {stares at door} What a pity.

2. Machi says that she will hunt Hisoka down if he tries to kill Kuroro and even succeeds. Hisoka says he would like that. (Is he flirting?)
