Curate, connect, and discover
Itadori Yuji - Blog Posts
Aight I have a lot of feelings about this chapter but for now I want to dwell on this.
In the beginning of this story we are told by Yuki's Grandpa the importance of dying a proper death and it's shown throughout the course of the story that that idea has basically stuck with Yuji more than anything.
And in the end of the story we see Yuji, scarred and wounded Yuji, go to Sukuna as he's left a useless heap of flesh on the ground screaming in anger at his death, his improper death, and Yuji just.....
I genuinely think it's interesting that curses are born when there is nothing but negativity and turmoil and the thing that makes curses like Kenjaku and Sukuna falter is witnessing moments of both great sadness and pure affection.
Gojo knowing and calling out that Kenjaku could never be Geto despite every single ounce of logic in him stating otherwise because HE knew Geto. He loved him, adored him, admired him and grieved for him when he was gone.
Yuji reaching out desperately to the person he's come to care so much for and reflecting on how much his life would be missing if Megumi just wasn't in it anymore.
Wether you ship it or not it's genuinely such a touching look at how the people that can bring so much joy to life can also bring such a great sadness to it once they're gone.
