Hunter × Hunter: Phantom Rouge is the first movie based on Yoshihiro Togashi's Hunter × Hunter. The movie premiered on January 12, 2013. The premise of the movie is based off a manuscript of the Yorknew City arc written by Togashi that he eventually ended up scrapping.
Kurapika became a Hunter to take vengeance on the Class-A crime group Phantom Troupe who massacred his clan for their unique eyes. The eyes of the Kurta clan turn scarlet in times of anger or emotional agitation and are considered the most beautiful treasures in the world. Kurapika continues to pursue the Phantom Troupe but an unknown party has stolen his "scarlet eyes". With the help of Gon, Killua and Leorio, Kurapika's life was saved. However, the Phantom Troupe shows up before them and blocks their way. The true identity of the one with the No.4 spider tatoo is about to be unveiled.
Phantom Rouge involves the Phantom Troupe and the Kurta Clan. The basic premise involves Kurapika's eyes being "stolen." Based off a promotional image with a #4 Spider reflecting in Kurapika's eye, the main antagonist is speculated to be the Troupe's previous #4 member before Hisoka became its current.
