Gallery of violence
2024 art series representing acts of violence of Kenjaku, Gojo, Sukuna, Yuji and Mahito
the scariest realisation that has ever dawned on me since i understood the passage of time is the fact that if our lives were airing as a fictional show for some demographic to consume then that means there are fans of elon musk and donald trump out there, people who unironically write putin x reader fics, have full thesis on why kim jong-un is the way he is.
the words you use are so casually cruel, like they kill me but it's just the fact of the matter
im also crazy about Gojo telling Geto he’d be satisfied if Geto had been there to pat him on the back (before the Sukuna fight)… but probably not for the same reason everyone else does…
Gojo only wanted Geto’s encouragement, he doesn’t want Geto to fight by his side.
this is about him showing Sukuna how much his love amounts to, no one is allowed to participate in that. If someone did it’d have been insincere.
Maybe if Geto had stayed & become a teacher + grown together with Gojo, Gojo would have wanted him to fight by his side. As an equal, as a partner, as two halves of a whole. But he didn’t, which is why the Geto that Gojo merely wanted a pat on the back from is the monk one.
And I think Geto KNOWS that. That the little tear he shed is not just because he couldn’t be there, but that even in the end he knew the position as Gojo’s equal is forever lost to him.
suguru in love is riptide. he might be indie and rock and punk and goth but he's just a regular guy, that's what he truly is.
One recurring theme through JJK is how in-universe most people think Gojo is disrespectful, annoying, and an overgrown child essentially. Even if we don't factor in the higher-ups the people around him (Nanami, Utahime) still reflect this. This is very interesting because in-universe Geto is revered before his fall from grace. He was more outwardly polite, respectful, even though many argue he had always had the mindset of being superior, he just took on a different responsibility with it. While I don't agree with that I can definitely see how Geto plays his cards right to not be as 'insufferable' as Gojo while portraying similar behaviour. Now let's look at Nanami, he's a disciplined logical man who adheres firmly to rules, but also ethics and morals. He protects the youth, he can't even bring himself to blame Geto for the choices he later on made because he first-hand understands how horrible jujutsu society is. Why did he go corporate, but it's the same thing there, braindead workers who are simply cogs for people 'above them' to abuse. Who does this impact the most? Gojo. He was a one-man army, he taught, he fought, he barely slept, yet he chose to wake up and do it every single day over and over again. Gojo could've ideally single-handedly handled all curses, ah but he's just a man (human) can't be everything everywhere all at once even if he was the strongest or a god (he's not). Nanami saw how his friend wasn't strong enough to survive in the jujutsu world, hell in the end he wasn't either, so what did he do? He took that out on Gojo. Never respecting the man who's always showing an interest or spending time around Nanami (ruffling his hair, calling him, trusting him). Yet in Nanami's mind, Haibara would be alive if Gojo went on that mission instead. Nanami would be alive if Gojo hadn't been sealed. Nobody would die if Gojo did it all. He knows that isn't right to expect out of someone, hell he doesn't understand why someone who could choose to do anything they wanted and have everything they simply look at, does something as vile as jujutsu. But of course, he's an adrenaline-junkie. We all read about billionaires being sociopaths, only being stimulated by these horrid things, Gojo must be that too.
He fought the king of curses because he likes fighting. He watched everyone around him die and did 'nothing' because he doesn't care. He's a teacher for the shits and giggles, he rescues students from execution and gives them childhoods because he hopes they're strong someday. Fuck Gojo could bleed and he'd marvel at the colour contrast, if he cries he'd bottle the tears to sell, if he dies he berates his entire life when he gave you everything. Was that not what 236 was? Then the subsequent arts showing him putting care and affection towards Geto while being annoyed by Gojo. It's one to be annoyed by him, but if you think he's a god you'd respect him. If you think he's morally reprehensible you'd hate him. But to make a martyr out of a live person, to view a living being through a lens to make them superior and expecting them to uphold that, you only do that when you're ignorant and dumb. Nanami is none of those things, to explore the disgusting thoughts and mindsets he showed toward Gojo as time went on due to his frustration at his comrades falling would've been beautiful. Instead, we have character assassination and everyone standing for it.
How would Shoko feel as her longest friend lay in pieces in front of her and she can't bring herself to cry because she doesn't even remember the last time they had a real conversation. She thought about how she should've handled Geto's body a year after the fact, but she just went and let someone vandalise Gojo's?
Fuck you're telling me that the airport had everyone in high school clothing but for what? Was it because it was the first and last time he was a human? And the worst part is this is one of the many unexplored things in JJK, it's so frustrating. I have so many more points about this too, Sukuna and Gojo, Gojo's relationship with his students, the little fun trivia bits about him. And that's just Gojo, other characters also have so fucking much that just, god man. It's like a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I was ovulating right before nerdjo became a thing, and now that it's here. I'M OVULATING AGAIN. My need for loser, pathetic men who are really just nerds with a bad rep should be studied. This is a free invite for anyone to yap to me about their hyper-fixation literally for the rest of my life.
It's not christmas eve, it ain't september end but i'm freaking out over this series. Like genuinely, as someone who didn't give it any thought then ended up using it as an escape.
Tell me why I thought nothing of Satoru till like 2023. And my little emotionally constipated brain tries to scientifically analyze this. I need to get my questions cleared, I'm genuinely going insane. Who decides to set up a canvas, get the acrylics, the references, and then breaks it all in half and leaves without a second thought. Gege.
so a/b/o usually has an m/m audience, but it's based off of the biology of a f/m like mammal reproduction. now what if in a new word where it's mainly just betas, some people present during puberty. instead of male omegas having vaginas or cloacas or absurdly small penises, they're just guys who go through heat and are ig more submissive and shit. and instead of female alphas just ceasing to exist they could be your average woman just with 'alpha traits'.
i think this gives some really interesting opportunities to explore like maybe a male omega's precum practically makes sure that it sorta grips or suctions so that like it'll take in terms of heat. or hell a female alpha being able to idk physically enable her womb to be fucked while she's in a rut. we could finish off with an omega never being able to get off while they're in heat until they have an alpha and alphas fighting other alphas (like death matches) during their rut.
this gives us some more logical and fun ways to explore some lesser-focused on things like omega-omega relationships, alpha-alpha relationships, female alpha representation, male omega with a female alpha, and this fits into the whole secondary sex is unknown until you present thing. idk i haven't explained my thoughts well but idc because i'm sleepy.
Satoru was literally born to live, laugh, love.
thinking about how to Gojo, love is “the most twisted curse of them all”, and that’s what he wields to battle Sukuna, leaving him with a broken heart and so much openings that guarantee his kids’ chance at winning in the end.
because “curses can only be exorcised by another curse”.
after Gojo died, there are 5 or 6 instances where they use something along the line of “Sukuna couldn’t do this & that because of his battle with Gojo”, hell even Sukuna himself admitted that.
And the thing is i think Sukuna didn’t realize that. He thought Gojo was greedy for also going on about the love and solitude route, he didn’t realize Gojo viewed Love differently from Yozoru and Kashimo. to Gojo LOVE IS A CURSE.
Sukuna didn’t realize Gojo was putting a curse on him.
You know, it used to haunt me for years what kind of curse Gojo would become in a cursed AU… but i think i know now.
It’s Love. It’s Love all this time. The abandoned Love that withered and fell in a garden of deep purple, as fleeting as the seasons.
:(
I'm a believer. (every time I listen to a musical I hope that Eurydice will survive the winter, Orpheus will not turn around, Veronica and JD will be just seventeen, Evan will tell the truth, Alexander will say no to his desires, Odysseus will save the infant, spare the sirens-)
I love reading analyses on tumblr (always open to recs), hearing others' thoughts, what they considered. It's a bit sad for certain series because of how something *should* be true but isn't. Sometimes it's far-fetched, but with JJK it becomes a mix of all of these things but also a necessity because of the lack of explanation I feel.
That's not a problem, as long as thematically it's consistent, if a character is repeatedly shown to want to be seen as more than their exterior, the name, the power, etc, we should give it to him. Which is why it's so funny to me that some people revolve his character around fighting, or his upbringing, or Suguru, or Sukuna. It's almost like another point for the self-fulfilling prophecy because we do to him in our world, what exactly they do in-universe. Now I'm not saying that these don't define him, they do. But this man acts childishly with his students even if all the higher-ups and people in charge look down on it. He continues to be completely not-hostile to his hostile colleagues (or friends that have known him for years). It's interesting how he doesn't care too much about hierarchy and respect even if that could benefit him greatly.
Sure he wasn't a cat-loving father or a playboy. Maybe he isn't some cunty twink or a simp obsessed with a man from 10 years ago. He was just him, and his as a character first declaring to win and reinstating that just to lose (with a messy fight no less). Then his peers and students and friends and colleagues disregarding him, even in the last fucking chapter. But worst of all, he believed it, he isn't human according to him, and I can't put my thoughts properly but I need to make a series of long JJK analysis posts or re-write it or something because damn is it taking up my time.
