The Satosugu And Itafushi Parallels Are Getting A Little Too Good.

The Satosugu and Itafushi parallels are getting a little too good.

First, Satosugu's bodies are being used as weapon after their death, not allowing them to just rest.

And now Itafushi's bodies are being used by Sukuna to do terrible things.

Second, Geto suddenly fought back against Kenjaku when Gojo asked him if he was okay getting used.

And now Yuji says to Megumi that he would be alone without him, and Megumi ,even after the soul bath, deploys his shadow technique to fight Sukuna.

What makes me hope they will have a happy ending is an "anti parallel"

Gojo always said that he can only save the people who want to be saved.

On the other hand, Yuji is constantly saying he will save Megumi (no matter what).

Satosugu did not communicate, so Itafushi will.

Please don't let the anits win Gege.

I am trying to watch Naruto, and this show has an egregious amount of filler. Now, I am still watching the original Naruto series that spaces it out terribly, but still, the ratio of cannon to filler is insane.

I want numbers to back up my complaining, so I did some math.

So, the original Naruto series has 220 episodes, 90 of which are filler.

Episodes 1-142 contain 13 filler episodes. 2 of them are standalone, while the other 11 make up 2 separate arcs. Episodes 143-219 are all filler. They contain 15 whole filler arcs.

This means that 40,9% of the original Naruto series is made up of filler episodes. (90/220≈0,409*100=40,9%)

Now, the Naruto: Shippuden series has 500 episodes, and 203 of them are filler.

I have to acknowledge, though, that they are better spread out.

This means that 40,6% of the Naruto: Shippuden series is filler episodes. (203/500=0,406*100=40,6%)

Episodes 1-100 contain 25 filler episodes, all of which are parts of arcs. Episodes 101-200 have 43 filler episodes, and 2 of them are standalone episodes. Episodes 201-300 contain 40 filler episodes, and 5 are not a part of arcs. Episodes 301-400 have 45 filler episodes, including 5 standalone episodes. Episodes 401-500 have 50 filler episodes, and just 2 of them stand alone.

If we put all those number together, we get that all of the animated Naruto content comes out to 720 episodes and that 293 of them are filler.

So 40,69% out of all the animated Naruto content is filler. (293/720≈0,4069*100=40,69%)

And just for good measure, we can compare it to both the other "Big 3" members.

One piece as of today has 1118 episodes, out of which only 96 are filler. So only 8,5% of it is filler episodes. (96/1118≈0,085*100=8,5%)

Bleach today stands at 366 episodes, and 165 of them are filler episodes. So a staggering 45% of Bleach is filler. (165/366≈0,450*100=45%)

Rewatching Avatar the last Airbender and realized just how justifiably angry katara was.

She was angry he mother died.

She was angry her father left them to fight in a war.

She was angry that her contributions to the tribe were not appreciated.

She was angry she was the only water bender left in her tribe.

She was angry she had to teach herself water bending.

She was angry that a little boy immediately picked up what took her years to master.

She was angry that she had to travel across the world to get a bending master who would dismiss her.

Just finished Full-metal alchemist:Brotherhood and apart from the great writing and character development, I particularly liked the way the homonculus in the bottle died.

I truly enjoy the trope in which the villain is afraid of death more than anything and does anything to prevent it, and ultimate ends up dying a humiliating death.

The first book series I read as a kid was Harry Potter, and it has influenced the way I consume media.

*Ahem fuck J.K.Rowling ahem*

He devoted centuries to artificially creating humans , making a whole new nation, and creating a transmutasion circle that covered the entirety of it. Did not give a fuck about all the innocent lives that would be lost if his plan worked. He knew all the consequences since he did the same thing on a smaller scale in the past (no benefit of the doubt). Not to mention everything he put Hohenheim through since they were made invincible together.

Also, the whole operation relied on people performing a forbidden type of transmutasion that was simply undoable and already involed dead people to begin with.

Let's not forget that the goal of the plan was to absorb the literal God. So much for removing Greed and Envy from himself.

So, the image of him being beaten to death by a literal 15 year old was just perfect.

Imagine your purpose in life just being to live more, disregarding everyone and everything around you, just for Ed, who had been alive for roughly 15 years to beat you to death with his bare hands, while the military, that you are supposed to control, cheers him on.

Can we talk about Shoko please?

She went to school alongside not one but two special grade sorcerers, so it is almost expected that she will be overlooked, at least academically.

And she is. They are all sent on missions together, and she is their last line of defense, but against death. So she is basically a doctor, not a fighter like the others. That is backed up by her ability to use reversed cursed technique on others, which neither Satoru nor Suguru could do, even on themselves. Yet, she is not even close to being appreciated enough by her team or her teachers.

Gojo and Geto were also way closer to each other due to the baggage that comes with their power than with Shoko. So she is overlooked friendship wise as well.

She is not excluded by any means, but she does not have access to the emotional support Satosugu provide to each other. Which one could argue is a good thing for her.

And then Gojo unlocks his potential. So, the entire power dynamic shifts. Him and Geto aren't on the same level anymore, which leads to Shoko being ranked even lower. And then Suguru deconstructs the concept of power. So he needs to be stopped, and Gojo loses his closest friend. But Shoko is also there, losing her friend. And then Suguru is killed. Even though Satoru was the one who did it, Shoko was the one furthest away from both her friends at that moment.

And since Gojo deals with it all on his own, enemy's manage to get him sealed. But the thing is, he doesn't have to. Shoko is still there. She can,inadequately, fill Suguru's place to avoid further distraction. But Gojo does not let her.

And then Gojo dies. So, she is now physically alone the same way she has been emotional forever now. But she is actually alone.
