Okay ANOTHER Thing The Fan Response To The School Event Still Makes Me So Annoyed Lmfao. Like Everyone

okay ANOTHER thing… the fan response to the school event still makes me so annoyed lmfao. like everyone became such a mai h8r, not me tho… she’s a fave… even without the pre culling game scenes where the writing comes full circle for maki’s character (gege’s best writing!) when mai has her flashback and she’s scared because she can see curses and her sister takes her hand. and then when maki leaves and mai says that maki is a liar and that she hates her. ppl watched/read that and took it at face value? how can you see maki leave the zenin clan, tell them that she is coming back to become the head, AFTER seeing her lead her scared sister fearlessly, their father talking about how much he hates them for being girls and twins; and perceive that as sisters attempting to best each other or a silly power grab. “maki can pull herself by the bootstraps” type fans… annoying! and Mai upset after their match saying that she never wanted to become a sorcerer, mai was just following maki only for mai to become defensive because she perceived maki’s choice as maki choosing to leave her... like how does maki not read as anything but a sister who cares deeply to viewers/readers…

i like that gege sprinkles all of these things that exist in opposition or just incompatible with the overt lines a main character will be saying. like the protagonists are not all knowing of jujutsu society, in fact the first year tokyo students seem pretty ignorant of all of the structural aspects. anyway i am glad that even though mai went to school to be like “fine i can leave you too!” she got a really good support system, peers who care about her, and met todo lmfao ☠️ i’m positive that normal girl miwa, prankster momo, and whatever is going on w todo brought out the best in her. kyoto students are all bestieees. i would like to think mai was genuinely happy as a kyoto student!

anyway the sisters are not trying to “prove” themselves or trying to “best” one another. there is no “rivalry”, and all of their objectives are about how much they love each other and all that comes with having to rely on only each other in a chauvinist traditionalist secluded community. as well as the emotional response (in mai’s case) to being abandoned. this is even without the pre culling games scenes but it certainly helps confirm it!

Sai has done some research

I feel like at least some jocks are just autistic people with a special interest in sports.
