Link to the vid ^ (also they have a lot more of jjk analysis, references to paintings and Buddhism stuff etc it goes so deep)

The spiral staircase is from a music video?

This was my thought on the last page

I've been wondering where it is - if it were in the cursed warehouse, or further down with Tengen, then kenjaku might have found it.

I think Gojo might have hidden the finger overseas - maybe during his trip to visit Yuuta before the exchange event.

Then either Gojo could have gone to retrieve it, or Larue and Miguel brought it with them.

That's crazy bc when Toji lost, his worm crawled to Geto

And when Gojo lost, he crawled back to Geto too

I adore your “Sukuna’s Negative Rizz” post, But I think the “groom costume” is a little iffy because it seems like Shinto grooms usually wear black haori. Apparently Gojo’s is purple LOL. Like Toji’s purple worm over his shoulder. I really think Gege was making a heavy handed point about Gojo pulling a Toji and forgetting his duty to Megumi by trying to affirm himself with Sukuna.

The groom claim costume is iffy. I won’t deny that at all. Sukuna isn’t in traditional bridewear either. He’s just in mostly white. For those reasons, I think this interpretation is drawing from the hidden symbolism instead of the overt symbolism.

Gege does this thing where themes/framing are either vague or have a lot of overlap. There’s usually multiple reasons for certain choices, and their meanings change depending on how you view them.

How Gojo is dressed as Toji is something I also used to argue he is functionally Megumi’s dad. But that analysis was about Gojo and Megumi’s relationship, so only the Toji outfit comparison is made and Sukuna is barely mentioned.

Sukuna’s Negative Rizz is me going “ok what if this was a date?” and then gathering evidence I think supports it. That doesn’t mean the deliberate Toji parallels aren’t there at the same time. It’s just that for the sake of exploring the date angle, it wasn’t relevant. (In other words, your interpretation works too.)

MAAAAN THESE SUKUNA ANALYSES... THEY'RE SO GOOD... I've always related to him super hard just on first readings as a trans disabled person who is an ambulatory wheelchair user. I'm incredibly violent and confrontational, too. If I could just fuckin kill the people who dehumanize me constantly, I mean... that kind of power is tempting! The way you read him is so satisfying to my brain, and it definitely makes sense in the text as well. Overall I'm just really happy to see somebody managing to put into words what I subconsciously grasped the first time I watched and read JJK. I was literally internally like "omg omg omg they put it into words!! omg!!!" the entire time I've been reading these posts. I can't wait to see what other analysis posts you've made and if there's other stuff for fandoms I enjoy. Thanks a lot for what you do! People like me appreciate it so much.

Oh thank goodnesss you feel this way. Everytime I post always I think of this image.

Stole this meme from r/Jujutsufolk.

Thank you for confirming I'm still at secret esoteric knowledge.

Sukuna is very cathartic for me as a character in that way too. He basically gets to act out where I would restrain myself.

It’s funny that you mention you’re trans. At the risk of tipping the scale to mental illness, I think Sukuna is a very gender character. I find his refusal to introduce himself very relatable. He just kind of lets everyone call him whatever. The only time he ever identifies himself is when not doing so could put in his life in danger.

Sukuna ID's himself as The Fallen so Angel doesn't kill him.
Ch 199 Pg 19

That’s it. “I’m the Fallen/Disgraced One”. I don’t believe he ever refers to himself as a man either. He just uses a masculine speaking style.

I also like how he doesn’t seem to care about being associated with feminine things. The marketing leans into this for some reason, pairing him up with Hello Kitty, which I think is great.

Vol 1 Extras (Sukuna canonically wears women's clothing.)
Official Hello Kitty Sukuna Merch

He projects this “I’m too strong to care about gender” aura I’m obsessed with. It might stem from his dehumanization as well. Both himself and other people are not really sure if he’s a curse or a human, so why on earth would he outwardly identify as man? It's not like curses have genders to begin with.

But the moment anyone tries to concretely observe him, like Mahito or Yuji touching his soul, he flips out. That really captures the vibe of “acknowledge my existence, but do not perceive me.” And if you find that relatable you should read Umineko.

Ch 28 Pg 15 (Mahito touches Sukuna's soul.)
Ch 30 Pg 16 (Mahito touches Sukuna's soul a second time.)
Ch 257 Pg 19 (Yuji punches Sukuna's soul.)

Sukuna is on the border of everything, so he reads like an allegory for multiple minority groups all at once.

He’s masculine in his presentation, but isn’t considered human enough to be called a man. That’s very trans of him.

He’s extremely ablebodied at a glance, but his abnormal features make normal day to day life a constant battle. That’s very invisibly disabled of him.

He may be Japanese by blood, but he’s deemed a monster and pushed out from society for not meeting certain physical features. That’s very biracial of him.
