No, your nonsense about Suguru and therapy is invalid. Shut up. You clearly don't know one thing about his character, Riko's death destroyed his mindset period.

So your nonsense will not be accepted. Quit.

LMAOOO

Dearest, I am no gynecologist, but you def need to see one, cause you're behaving like a rabid cunt, lol

Go touch some grass, will ya? xd

My thoughts on why going to therapy would have not saved Suguru Geto

I see a lot of people talking/writing/musing about how Riko's death was a starting point of Suguru's downfall.

But I, for one, think that foundation for Suguru's deflection had been laid way prior his meeting with Riko. It was the way he had been taught (or simply grew up) thinking about sorcerers and non-sorcerers.

From the very beginning he had labeled non-sorcerers as "the weak", those, who need to be protected. The weakness in question being the inability to use cursed techniques and manipulate curse energy.

Ultimately, despite his initially noble and collected facade, he'd been showing signs of being a classist (or racist? Considering how later he came up with the thought that sorcerers and non-sorcerers are two different species entirely) from the very beginning. He wasn't "a sincerely kind and good person", he chose to act like one, maybe because he was told to, maybe because he was youthful (and who doesn't want to be a hero, when they're young?), and thus instead of being straight up cruel and genocidal, he used to be patronizing and lowkey condescending alongside with being nice. Non-sorcerers always were a second class people for him. It's just before Riko's death he'd been wearing the mantle of the "noble protector", and after her demise and finding out how Nanako & Mimiko were been abused by the hand and will of those who, he 'd thought, needed his protection, he snapped and spiralled down to straight up hating every non-sorcerer.

I see a lot of people saying that if Suguru had a proper therapy, he could have been "saved", but I can't agree with that, not entirely, at least.

Yes, he was in dire need of proper help after Riko's death, after Satoru's near death experience, he needed help to fight his identity crisis, but what he had needed way before that was a proper teacher and/or a parental figure, or a friend beside Satoru, or anyone, honestly, with a properly working moral compass who could have knocked those ideas of segregating sorcerers and non-sorcerers from each other out of his head. And, unfortunately, level-headed and responsible adults are what Jujutsu High and jujutsu society in general severely lack in (Nanami, forgive us, for we've fucked up).

It should have never been about "the strong protecting the weak", it should have been more about fighting the way one can to save lives, period. A sorcerer can't safely remove a tumor from a patient's brain to save their life, but a neurosurgeon can. A neurosurgeon can't exorcise a cursed spirit to save a life, but a sorcerer can. Both doing what they are able to in accordance with their innate qualities and abilities in order to achieve the same goal.

It's not about being better than others because one can do something other people cannot, it's about just doing what you can do. A pity there was no one to show Suguru that.

In the end, he was a child who'd fallen victim to adults' neglectful teachings and leniency, and got stuck in his simplistic beliefs. To me it feels like he'd never been given an opportunity for proper mental growth, and stagnated in his radical black-and-white (and naive, frankly) views and, eventually, his unhinged gargantuan dreams of making the world "better" in the most lunatic way possible.

And that's just sad. Not just the demise of a beloved character, but also the "what could have been".

Hello and welcome to the world of my bad, bad taste in fictional men~

demon king laios silliness

I really do hope Gege won't go 'a redemption arc for Sukuna, here you go' way. Yuji tried, he's an endlessly kind kid, but Sukuna is definitely not the kind of villain who wants to be redeemed nor can be redeemed at all. Put him six feet underground and pour a pound of salt over his remains, and I say that with all sincerity of someone who openly states that his Heian era form is hella hot.

"cuz evil doesn't always have a reason behind its action" exactly. as I have mentioned before, Sukuna is not redeemable nor wants to be redeemed so it will be extremely difficult to bring him to the closure that someone believes he "deserves" it.

I didn't really know why but this chapter, along with Yuji's resolve in the end suddenly reminded me of Gran Torino's word to Izuku:

"killing someone is the same as saving them"

I can see that Yuji tried to give Sukuna a chance and Sukuna just won't take it, so perhaps with this way, Yuji may be able to give him mercy. that's what I thought, btw.

Day 8573757475 of me loving the internet and tumblr specifically. Y'all are so unapologetically horny it's perfect.

Like there's this game, and in the game there's this guy who's all crooked and looks like he's dying from severe case of phthisis, and his second phase is him straight up rotting from leprosy. He also tries to kill you. And has committed mass murder. Or there's this whole species of predatory man-eating shapeshifting monsters? You think that's scary??

Nah, tumblr goes full uwu they're so fine and collectively givES THEM A WIFE

Well, yes, this guy.

But with all seriousness - as you correctly stated, he is average. Normal. Like the most normal looking character in the game - he doesn't have oversized lips or exaggerated chin, or inhumanly wide smirk, or a face shaped like a brick, or even brightly coloured hair, or heterochromia. And that's what makes him more appealing in comparison with other neighbours - the way he looks most human among other humans.

Also, many in the fanbase loooove the 'tired stoic man who needs some loving and caring' trope, and Francis is the perfect embodiment of that. He is also a bit blank personality-wise, so it leaves a lot of room for fantasizing.

And he's kinda cute. Clear and nicely proportioned face, calm demeanor, implied stable job, sooo... Why not? It's fun, let people have their fun, have some fun yourself :D

Alright I might get hate for this but I truly do not understand this simping over milkman. More specifically how the simping originated. I mean let's be honest ppl this guy?

This guy ain't hot. Now the fanart? That's a different thing, simping over his fanart I get cuz I mean come on. But like, this guy is literally the only normal looking character in tnmn and ppl start sexualizing him. Why? I'm open to arguments of course so comment down below as to whether it is this person above u simp for or the fanart, also if u do then why? I'd rly like to know that.

Also hey I love tnmn so no offense, although that doesn't make a lot of sense.
