Since Todo’s here, Sukuna’s Type Reveal next Chap🗣‼️
SPOILERS FOR JJK CHAPTER 259 AND A LONG ASS RANT I JUST HAD TO GET OUT
Look, it's not just that I'm sad Choso is likely getting killed off. He's my personal favorite, and honestly, him sacrificing himself for his last living brother, atoning for the death and harm he caused beforehand, yeah normally it would actually feel right for him to go out this way.
EXCEPT WHAT WAS THE POINT?! Yuki sacrificed herself so he could keep fighting. She had this big, emotional thing where she encouraged Choso to not just throw his life away, to live on and embrace his humanity. It sucked this awesome character who barely got any focus went out so quickly but okay, fuckon fine, but at least she was able to impart something meaningful to-
Oh wait Choso's dead? Just like that? Welp fuck it.
I'm sorry I know, I KNOW, since the very beginning we get told this is a dangerous world, we learn early on that death, cruel, unceremonious death, is a very real thing that just comes with the deal of being a sorcerer. But the narrative clearly wants us to care about these characters. It's not just a nihilistic slog. We're supposed to get attached and find meaning in these characters and the hardships they have to deal with. And I wouldn't be so pissed if Gege didn't keep doing this thing where he keeps killing off characters and ending arcs seemingly because he just doesn't really know what else to do with them in the story. It's not good story telling. I'm sad Choso most likely is dead but I'm more annoyed because I don't feel more sad. It feels so anticlimactic and borderline lazy.
If you set up a characters arc and it ends with them dying and we as the readers are meant to give a shit, there needs to be follow through. Commit to the themes and the tone being established. It's just such a waste and honestly I'm starting to care less and less about how this is going to end. I'm guessing it'll end with Sukuna somehow being defeated but I doubt by the end of it I'll put down my phone and think "man what a satisfying conclusion. I'm glad I read this." I'm probably mostly going to think "wow this could have been way better, but ok,I guess I'm glad I finished it." And that makes me bummed out.
Usually I forgive gege/sukuna for his crimes bc gege gives us so many beautiful images of true form sukuna and it takes me an hour to read a chapter bc I just. Keep looking at him. And he's one of my favorite characters.
But he's in time out rn!! Both sukuna and gege ughhhhh that was........ No.....
It can't be Chosover.

It doesn't have to be Chosover.
We know that Ui Ui can switch out souls, so he might have done that with Choso.
Who would he sacrifice? Mei Mei. All that she has to offer is crows, and Choso is instinctual - he could easily learn to use her techniques.
Choso would gain her memories, and maybe he would still retain some traits bc she is stronger than whoever he had incarnated with originally. But still, it would become Choso's body.
Usually I have to save characters in my own fics (bc gege neglects the solutions) but this time I'm going to pass. Because I already have too many active, and if I tried now, then I'm going to find inaccuracies as more chapters come out and it's going to drive me insane. But if anyone else writes this, I'd read it.

Wait I don't think Mei would stay around at all, bc her soul would be gone (though ui ui could also have switched Choso and sukuna's souls, maybe. I'm always trying to kill Mei off lmao)
The concern would be whether Choso maintains his blood manipulation techniques, but if he loses them, then Yuuji could learn from Sukuna. Condense his death painting brothers into a finger and feed that to Choso, everything is solved.
