I see your post, I understand and I appreciate it. I love seeing the reblogs and tags for this because it was just a thought my sleep deprived brain concocted and I posted it because, haha funny thing happening in the fandom. I just thought it was kinda funny. But I see a lot of people have thoughts on this and it’s just great lmao Like, I understand how people can come to that conclusion, especially if they’ve only watched the anime. I was more so talking about manga readers.
Anyway, you done did the one thing people shouldn’t do to me: allow me to introduce kpop to the situation. Been a kpop fan for literally almost half of my life. It’s hard for me to stop, but I’ll try my best lmao Most kpop idols are thin. That’s just beauty standard and generally how genetics play out. Some people tend to have prominent collarbones, obviously they’re more noticeable if a person is more on the slender side. I’ll start with my dear boy Wonho, who has always had pretty noticeable collarbones. A few years ago when he was with Monsta X, they were pretty prominent. He’s always been pretty muscular, see the blond tank top pics (taken in 2020, iirc) which is what I would roughly equate Gojo’s build to if we need an irl comparison.

Nowadays, his tiddies are bigger than my head, but his collarbones are still relatively prominent. Man’s is legit built like a whole fire station.

Upon seeing Gojo in the black sweater, I didn’t think he was lithe, per se, but I didn’t think he was hiding muscles similar to Toji/present day Wonho under there. But that’s just me. I’ve seen plenty of cases irl and in anime where a person or character seems pretty thin but are hiding a surprising build under a coat or sweaters. Another example is babby boy Christopher- Bang Chan. When he’s just chilling, doing his Chan’s Room streams, he often wears a lot of black, which is slimming, and a lot of really loose fitting, comfy tops and hoodies. To the unassuming eye and those that just don’t know, he has the average male kpop idol build.

In reality, Chan is also hiding a really impressive build.

Another memory engrained in my head comes from Yu-Gi-Oh 5D’s. When I was a kid, I loved watching whatever Yu-Gi-Oh content I could get my hands on and I watched 5D’s every Saturday. Yusei Fudo is my second favorite protagonist from the franchise. Like most Yu-Gi-Oh characters, he has a pretty iconic jacket and the standard thin boy build we see in anime, especially children’s cartoons/anime. Yu-Gi-Oh is targeted towards young boys and not a series that’s trying to draw older people in with hot ikemen. So imagine my surprise as a kid when they put Yusei in scenes without his jacket and he had muscles. They aren’t crazy big, bulging muscles, but certainly don’t match the noodle look his jacket gave him. I learned then to not judge too quickly lol

So now, back to the man of the hour. Like I said before, the post I made was from my sleep deprived mind and I typed it up in a couple of minutes. I was reminded of the the obligatory beach chapter of the manga. It’s Chapter 70: Hidden Inventory, Part 6. As stated, this was 11 years ago and Gojo was 17

Gojo has always been this way. Who wears an all black hoodie to the beach? Gojo, apparently. Also, I cannot defend his legs. I guess he just skips leg day, idfk skcnfkekfme But even here Gojo is pretty ripped. He just seems to be the type to like to hide this fact. Maybe it’s so that people and curses who don’t know who he is will underestimate him.
Also also, I said, too, that time doesn’t flow in the Prison Realm? Time doesn’t flow, so I’m not sure how the weeks would feel to Gojo. I’ve had a couple of people try to debate that in the 19 days he was sealed, he gained muscle and I’m just like…. No? You cannot gain a significant amount of muscle in just 19 days, and even if you could, how did Gojo? He can’t move. It is called the Prison Realm for a reason. It is a pocket dimension meant to designed to keep the being inside confined, imprisoned. What was he doing in there to exercise? Lifting skeletons?
There was no way for him to do much of anything. Inside the Prison Realm, all Gojo can do is sit and think. He thinks about Nobara, Megumi, Yuji, Nanami and the sweets he wants to eat. He sleeps and ignore the crushing atmosphere and skeletons inside. You can see this in a video called Jujutsu Kaisen Gokumonkyou which is just Gojo existing in the box with some fire lo-fi lol

Ayo, why do so many people think Gojo was lanky before his unboxing? He was stuck in a pocket dimension for nineteen days. Nineteen days is a lot of time but simultaneously isn’t when it comes to building muscle specifically. Also, the point of the cube was to trap him so he couldn’t move. He wasn’t deadlifting in the cube; he literally couldn’t do anything. At one point in time, Gege said time doesn’t even flow the same in the cube, and it’s more like there is no flow of time. Nineteen days for Yuji could have felt like a few seconds for Gojo. Gege could have changed their stance on that, idk, I haven’t read the chapter
My point is, Gojo hasn’t been lanky since high school, most likely. After Toji rocked his shit and nearly killed him, I imagine that would traumatize him at least a little lmao He improved his Infinity and gained, like, mast control over it and probably bulked up. This man is 28 and fights the strongest curses regularly. Aint no way he never gained muscle in the 11 years since his fight with Toji as a second year. I mean…even Yuji is shredded. The jacket Gojo wears is baggy. The black long sleeve shirt he wore? Kinda baggy. The blue button up? Pretty loose. Every time we see him in casual clothes, he’s wearing something loose or a jacket so we can’t see his frame very well. Plus, Gege drew this sketch two years ago so

Yeah, not lanky by any means
