Oh. My. God. Now I know why he was nervous. I cannot even-

Everyone talks about how cool gojo seems when he says that "my students are watching I'm still gonna look cool". But like, look at yuta.

Look at his face. This dude always looks like he's in The Office and knows the camera is gonna pan to his face. Bro gets so anxious that he can't even look at the camera and is always sweat dropping with the most awkward expression possible.
Ever since chapter 261 was released, I've seen a lot of takes on the course of action of the manga. And most importantly, I've seen a lot of posts about how Gojo was not the only person wronged and dehumanised in the entire series. And I do agree with them, to some extent. Because yes, a lot of other characters did not get the ending they deserved. Yes, Yuji had also become a weapon for the jujutsu society. Yes, Geto's body was used against his consent to do unspeakable things. And there are many more instances in the entire series that show such tragic events.
So how is what happened with Gojo different? Well, if you would look at it, what happened with all the other good characters was a consequence of the actions of the bad guys, the antagonists. Yuji? Taken over by Sukuna. Geto? Taken over by Kenjaku. Junpei? Killed by Mahito. Mai? Killed by the Zen'ins. Nanami? Killed by Mahito. On the other hand, the 'taking over Gojo's body and using it as a weapon' was not orchestrated by any of the villains, but rather by the good guys of the story. Gojo's own allies came up with this plan. And yes, Gojo may have agreed to this plan, but no one else objected to it. How could Gojo disagree to a plan that no one else saw a fault with? He was the strongest, after all. If he could not beat Sukuna while he lived, he would have to do so after he died. I think we are more appalled by the fact that it was Yuta who took over Gojo's body and not Kenjaku. You would not expect a bad guy to have a moral compass, because, that's their whole shtick. Causing mayhem, spreading evil and all. But when a good guy breaks the barriers of morality, how are we supposed to react? Not positively, I suppose.
Do I blame Yuta? OF COURSE NOT. He was the only guy who stood up for Gojo, who understood the injustice he had to go through his entire life to protect others. His whole life as a sorcerer, Yuta had been compared to Gojo, as someone who stood as high as the Strongest. So if neither Gojo nor him could beat Sukuna, the responsibility to win by hook or crook, the responsibility to take over as the role of the monster fell on his shoulders. He lost his own self in this plan. This plan of his affected only the people who held the mantle of being 'monsters'. After all, which monster has the honour of bearing humanity?
So, do I have to like what happened? Of course not. Do I understand why it had to happen? Yes, yes I do. No sorcerer is a hero. But the fact that they don't have the right to remain a human is just the most unfair of all things.
(Thank you for listening to my TED talk.)
Fuck this shit. I'm moving on to that other show with gojo and megumi. Hopefully they'll get a better ending there.
Well this did not age well
SPOILER FOR JJK MANGA!!!
Okay hear me out, I truly want Gojo to be alive. If my url doesn't make it obvious, then let me say it- I am a die hard Gojo fan (not one of the deranged ones, you know which ones I'm talking about), and I'm all for Gojo being alive and kicking. But if Gojo returns for a round 2 with Sukuna, it will RUIN the progress Yuji has made. Gojo's return to the fight can only yield two results- either he'll win, or he'll lose. In the first case, the purpose of Yuji's character as the mc would be utterly destroyed, and the second one will prove to be a disgrace to Gojo's character. Both the cases are, all in all, a lose-lose situation. The thing is, I wish that Gojo had never lost the way he did. I wish he hadn't died the way he did. But that's the thing. He lost, and that's that. I wish that he hadn't lost when he did, but bringing him back now will most probably be a bad move. I hope he'll be alive by the end of the story and all of that, but don't disregard the things all the characters, including gojo and especially yuji, have been through. Even if Gojo doesn't return, he will still be the strongest to me, and I won't be able to see his character be dragged through the mud again just because of a poor move by the mangaka.
SPOILERS FOR THE WORST FUCKING SHIT EVER PULLED IN THE HISTORY OF PULLING BAD SHITS
At this point, let Megumi die too. Let Gojo's body be so destroyed that it cannot be used anymore. Let Megumi's brain be so utterly wrecked that he would not survive even if they separate Sukuna from him. Let Megumi's body too become the tool to kill sukuna. Because while death became a curse to Gojo's whole being, it will be salvation for Megumi. Because can you imagine Megumi, sweet, young Megumi, who loves with all his heart but seldom shows it, will be able to live with the knowledge that HIS hands were the culprits that killed all the people that not only he but his friends cared about too? Would he be able to look at yuji in the eyes after what happened to choso? Would he be able to look HIMSELF in the eyes after what happened with his little family? Sometimes, nothing is more merciful than death itself. Maybe, in the afterlife, he would live with his family, he would give his dad (Gojo, not the child service evader) the tightest hug and would be truly happy. Maybe death will treat him more kindly than life ever did. Maybe Gojo will get the chance to be himself and not the strongest. Maybe, all of them- Satoru, Megumi, Suguru, Tsumiki, Choso and the many others who died an unfair death- would be able to live a fair life in death. Maybe, Satoru's infinity would finally be able to protect him and the people he cherishes from the malignity and the cruelty of the world. Maybe, Gojo Satoru would be just Gojo Satoru and not the Strongest. Maybe, Fushiguro Megumi would be just Fushiguro Megumi and not the One with the Potential to match the Strongest. Maybe, they would be treated as humans and not just tools. Maybe, they would feel the happiness they deserved so, so much.
Gege this is not what it means for best friends to do everything togetherðŸ˜ðŸ˜
And I know that it was the last resort and all that, and I don't think that it was any of the students' or shoko's fault, least of all yuta's. But all of these factors do not have to make me like it. All the things about Gojo's soul being happy or whatnot does not rectify the goddamn disrespect that he has to face after death. He might be happy moving south, but why wasn't the north a happy enough place for him? Well, the way they treated his body after his death might give you a glimpse into the reason for it.
In the end, he was just Gojo, the strongest sorcerer of the modern era and never Satoru, a child who always had to look out for assassins, a teenager who ran himself into the ground to protect another teenager for it all to be in vain, a teenager who could not do anything but watch as all his friends walked away from him, a teenager who took in a child whose father had literally killed him and his friends, physically or emotionally or both, an adult who had to kill his one and only best friend, a teacher who would put his own life on the line for his students, a father who had to fight his own son. Apparently, being the strongest isn't enough to be seen as a person who deserves a proper rest.

You know, sometimes it's fine to let the characters be happy. It's fine to have a stressed and tired man have his dream vacation. It's fine to have a young girl finally meet her long lost friend that she always admired. It's fine to let a girl with a kind heart live with her little brother and not make her body a puppet to fight him. It's fine to let a young boy have his father back and not have him kill the only family he had left. It's fine to let a man with the burden of the title of the strongest be able to save the people he cares about. It's fine to let a man be the big brother he always wanted to be and live with the little brother he always wanted to have and not let him die without knowing what it is like to live. It's fine to let an innocent boy remain innocent and not have him lose everything he held close to his heart again and again. Sometimes, it's fine to not destroy the happiness of characters just in the name of character and plot development.

So a few days ago I was scrolling on insta and saw a reel related to jjk. I read the whole damn text on it but didn't understand jackshit. It was not a jjk reel. It was a reel about some horror movie (well jjk is progressing like a horror movie too but whatever). I thought it was a jjk reel because I read the word lobotomized on it. LOBOTOMIZED. BECAUSE OF THE WHOLE LOBOTOMY KAISEN SHTICK. WHAT THE FUCK HAS THE JJK FANDOM DONE TO MY BRAIN
I really feel bad for Zai. Poor dude hated and did not trust people, got recruited in a fucking ninja group, found two people who told him they'd be friends for life, his only friends literally fucked around and fucked off, leaving him behind, tried to stop them but they did not listen, AND THEN GOT FUCKING TORTURED FOR LETTING THEM GO. I mean, I understand Higan and Mari's reason for leaving, but dude, they found their reason for living in each other but took with them Zai's only hope in that shithole. Now that's just cruel.
