i hc that suguru is really big on clothes and fashion in general. you guys will go thrifting and shopping together all the time with the allowance that jujutsu high gives yall. when you guys go to the mall he’ll hold your bags for you and insists on paying for anything you buy, even though you’re perfectly capable of paying yourself, cue you two arguing about whos gonna pay while theres a line of like 12 people behind you, the cashier is just staring like 😐,, sometimes when u guys go thrifting yall will try on the ugliest clothes imaginable to try and make the most ridiculous outfit possible, you have way too many images in your camera roll of him dressed like a human highlighter 😭

I know i will end up loving Banri eventually, since it’s very hard for me to dislike anyone, and i know he gets development and i’m sure he’ll be better down the line (just like Tenma was as well) but he’s unsufferable for now.

Like.... The ones that gives a bad start are mostly Masumi, Tenma and Banri in their bands it seems. We’ve seen Masumi’s growth and Tenma’s so i expect the same for Banri’s.

But by god Banri you better really work to win me over from that point.

I don’t have strong feelings over Masumi (except that i find him too stalkerish), but i do have strong feelings about Tenma and I feel like the Banri situation can compare but not quite - i’ve seen people tend to dislike the two at the begining but...

Tenma was an idiot - still is but shush - but it came from him being socially inept. It becomes clear as it goes that the guy doesn’t have friend, probably stayed most of his life listening to what his strict, violent and absent parents dictated for him (yes i’m not fucking over the fact his father fucking punched him in the eye for refusing a movie deal) and it seems he always had this very strict way to see things. 

He grew as a leader specifically bc he was the kind to see everyone’s fault, but once he realizes that he has to mention their pros too, he helps everyone bloom. 

His douchery in the begining are mostly him sliping into this sort of habit of being socially unable to communicate what he means, that he believes failure will bring him mockery and/or violence, and he takes it on the others without realizing because he has no notion of social barrier.

And his duality with Yuki specifically work on that because Yuki always calls him out but also send clear messages when Tenma is improving that this is indeed the way to go. Since Yuki’s sass is also humorous and they’re a team that is based on comedy anyway, after a bit the banter just become part of their dynamic, not something where they’re actively fighting.

but even early on they weren’t fighting per se, Yuki just called out Tenma in colorful way and Tenma’s reaction was generally “what the fuck did you just say” but it never escalated. And the few times Tenma actually crossed the lines (with Muku, with Kazunari) he tooks the specific time to apologize sincerely for that.

Tenma grew so so much and he still has a lot to learn. But he’s blooming thanks to the Summer troupe. 

And in a way every member of the summer troupe is somewhat socially inept. Yes, even Mister McSocial Kazunari who actually spells out that his behavior is because he’s terrified that if he expresses a personal opinion people would shut him out. They’re all very bad at being social in this team and that clashed in the begining, but that’s why they worked.

I expect just as much development from Banri, hopefully,

but so far the reason Banri is a douche are an inferiority complex over a guy he had never met before and he had done nothing but trying to humiliate said guy in order to provoke a fight.

Like it’s really hard to see Banri and Juza’s fights as banters. Banri is just unnecessarely mean and Juza doesn’t know how to react to them. They’re just incredibly lucky that Sakyo, Omi and Taichi are that good at damage control and know when to stop them. 

I was laughing at every banters between Yuki and Tenma because Tenma generally had them coming even if he didn’t provoke them on purpose, but they never escalated and they were witty enough for them to be in good terms.

But everytime Banri say something to Juza i feel super sick.

And it isn’t even comparable to how Tenma talked down on Muku and Kazunari those few times, Tenma didn’t know how bad his words could impact them or reacted on impulse, and each happened at best TWICE (and as i mentioned Tenma apologized sincerely for all of that), Banri is doing all of that on PURPOSE trying to provoke Juza and i honestly started to lose count at this point, there were 5 in one conversation just now and I feel horrible for Juza.

MC and Sakyo both decided that Banri and Juza should share a room and MC mentions “well looking at how Tenma and Yuki got used to each other it’s probably going to work for them too” but Tenma and Yuki at least knew better than to *actively provoke each other*. Which is the contrary of Banri who only joined the troupe to humiliate Juza.

I’m CERTAIN Banri will prove me wrong, that i’ll end up adopting him, i see exactly the flaws he needs to work on (to just assume everything comes easy for him, that he doesn’t have to put passion in it ect... and since he will become the team leader i TRULY HOPE he takes a page on Tenma’s book on how to be a good one who takes into account the pros and cons of his team)

But for now while i joked about Tenma “catching those hands” early on, I’ve never, ever felt as angry against Tenma as i am right now against Banri.

Anyway. Prove me wrong boy. I love douchebags that grow into me, so prove me wrong so i can forget how badly you treated Juza in the begining alright. Fix your relationship with Juza while at it please. Thank you.

EDIT OF A FEW MONTHS LATER: anyway now he’s one of my fav character i’m boo ooh the fool he’s great, he grew so much, and im so proud of him you go Banri, and it’s even better knowing how far he’s come. love u Banri
