watch hunterxhunter then.
The typical Shounen protagonist will almost certainly 1) Fight the main antagonist of the arc, and 2) this is either to save or protect someone.
In HxH, Gon never even meets the main antagonist, instead just tasked to separate his royal guard from him. And his motivations, while early on was to rescue Kite, became completely different by the end, instead just based on vengeance and pure hatred.
In standard Shounen, protagonists gain a power-up when their backs are against the wall, and are fuelled by the desire to protect or to save. In Gon's case, the trigger is something entirely different.
Behind Gon's transformation is meaning, or, more accurately, the lack of it. Gon went through a whole range of emotions during that particular sequence... grief, anger, confusion... and in the end a great sense of meaninglessness. He muttered "I don't care if this is the end". He didn't care about anything anymore --- not Killua, not his desire to find his father, and not even to lament the loss of Kite --- everything lost its meaning to him. He descended into a deep nihilism, prepared to sacrifice everything he has, just for the singular purpose of killing Pitou.
Imagine. He risked his all, not to defeat the King, which would be more into the typical hero-sacrifices-his-life-to-defeat-the-villain we so often find in not just Shounen but any other fighting scene. No, he did it to defeat someone who literally meant nothing in the grand scheme of things. Killing Pitou won't bring back Kite. Killing Pitou is not as significant as killing Meruem. And killing Pitou by sacrificing your whole potential is a waste.
And that's why that final scene, with Gon looking back at Killua with an indescribable melancholy in his eyes, where you can see him just give up on everything, is one of the most disturbing and emotionally captivating scenes in all of Shounen.
