Theres a half formed Thought in my Brain about Suguru(?) featuring in the penultimate chapter and the way we can't see his face and can't really tell if it's him (or Kenjaku or what) but like. Everyone talks about the ways in which Gojo is dehumanized and objectified as a tool/weapon and I think Suguru parallels that in a way, but rather than being denied humanity As A Whole the way Gojo is his Body Specifically is treated like a tool (eg. His cursed technique involves Eating and Storing curses, kenjaku wants him for said cursed technique)
#So basically Suguru is a trans man-#I'm being silly but genuinely Suguru is exploited in such an interesting way#And he talks about ''survival of the weakest'' (pre. Y'know) but also!!! He mentions ''discoraging/suppressing the strong"! Like#He clearly has An Ego (see: Utahime interactions. Becoming a cult leader) so I don't think that's like. Something he developed on his own#And I doubt his parents who Aren't Sorcerers taught him that. So what I'm saying is the higher ups manipulated him to try and mold him#Into a way to control Gojo because he's also special grade but he 1. Isn't As Strong 2. Doesn't have powerful family connections#3. Is new to Jujutsu 4. Same age as Gojo#Like. (Contracts rabies) Do you understand me. My take is Suguru lived a lot of formative years in a cult adjacent#If not straight up cult environment and then once he suffered significant identifiable trauma (bc imo jujutsu society is basically#A PTSD for teens factory but that can be hard to identify bc jujutsu society specifically forces you to dissociate from that trauma#Because it gets in the way of working and while in the moment you need to be able to compartmentalize bc. Fighting and Risk Of Death.#Afterwards you get No Help so that's great anyway) he Left and then replicated similar power structures except This Time HES on top#Just. He sucks so bad but a part of me wonders if he actually registers the Level of harm he's doing. Bc he has to know it's fucked up#And he's theoretically okay w it for normal ppl who aren't sorcerers but like. It's a cult! It's abusive! YOU HAVE SORCERERS IN THE CULT#(and your daughters got murdered bc of you you and your idiot ex. Don't raise children in a cult oh my GOD)
