gonna miss jjk

I have been reading jjk weekly since the end of the mahito-yuji fight in shibuya, and gotta say it’s been such a fun ride. Gege has created so many great characters, character moments, and fun plot ideas. I think the way he structures arcs has been really interesting, and, as a huge hxh obsessive, I love seeing how much he takes and remixes his favorite ideas from there. I’ve been consistently floored (and exasperated) by his love of cliffhangers, too, but honestly it’s a huge part of the fun because you can tell he really enjoys being as devious as possible.

spoilers below:

oh my god that better be Kenjaku that would be so funny please. Gege is such a troll and I’m going to miss being trolled by his story. You know he was chuckling while drawing that textbox damn.

also I’m seeing rumors of a part 2 a lot atm. I honestly doubt it, but I’d love to be proven wrong!

Longer final thoughts going into the last chapter:

I don’t need Gojo to come back. He is obviously teasing the comeback with the clock shananagans, but who knows

if its Gojo in Geto’s body, that’d be kind of disappointing to me, but the shipping fanart will go crazy so win-win

if it’s geto I will be bummed out bc he works best as a ghost haunting the narrative more than a character interacting with other characters imo

i was hyped for a downer ending, but honestly I really enjoyed the entire squad sitting down and reviewing their performance against Sukuna. Felt like a work meeting, and you can tell Greg likes writing their interactions. Every character pointing out the flaws in their plans, their regrets and opinions, feels very hxh-y. You know Gege just likes explaining a complicated, well thought-out plan (eg. all of Kenjaku’s character, the culling games)

haguruma(sp?) should be dead by all accounts, but oh well. It was never an airtight story, and I don’t need it to be. Good to see him in an arm sling and sad eyes.
