91: C.J. & Co. // Devil's Gun
Tumblr media
Devil's Gun C.J. & Co. 1977, PAC 3
Ass-whipping disco-funk in the vein of the Spinners at their grooviest, co-written and produced by Dennis Coffey of the Funk Brothers. Five songs, 36 minutes, zero ballads, an easily two-minute long jazz flute solo toward the end, and one shirtless green fuck-prince of darkness on the cover.
youtube
Realistically, that’s about all you need in a review, but let’s lay it on a little thicker. Every musician on here has their own C.V. of Motown classics longer than a Krasznahorkai sentence, and in the absence of a star frontperson they get to let loose. This is the kind of disco that makes you feel like BA Baracus: force of nature strings, rubbery bass, peppery drums, chicken scratch guitars, girl/guy gang vocals featuring one of those dudes with a cartoonishly deep voice. Are you gonna dance, or throw some cops through a bunch of wooden crates? With C.J. & Co. you’re ready for anything.
In conclusion, Devil’s Gun doesn’t let up for a second, and it’s an absolute steal at any price you’re likely to find it at (i.e. chump change).

Pochita, if you can read, why don't you speak ?
Tumblr media
Wouldn't it be humane to protect humanity and demonic to protect the underworld? And what if... it was actually the other way around.
The interweaving of questions and answers is exactly what this chapter does.
While Yoru sordidly states that children are nothing more than the property of their parents, the one who can't speak, instead of devouring a human as he did with all those demons, decides to go to the blood drive.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pochita understood what the sign meant. He knows how to talk. But he'd rather hold up that sign and roar than make any demands.
Worse still, he does not decide to give any orders.
It's not words that symbolise order, it's that raised index finger that already in Roman times expressed command.
Tumblr media
In the United States, arms are a constitutional right (as recently reiterated by the Supreme Court, which does not admit of any restrictions), a fundamental freedom but also a means of preserving one's freedom, allowing organised militias to fight and protect the State.
Tumblr media
You can see how it's all a construction, the weapons are a technological creation, the State is an administrative and political creation.
And that's where things get interesting. First of all, this chapter is highly symbolic and has a very strong political message (oh my god, political interpretation in a manga, impossible..........)
Yoru has sliced off the index fingers of those who support the right to bear arms in the United States. Or campaign for that freedom. But what Yoru is doing. In fact, it's taking it away from them. How can I shoot without this index finger? You can't do it.
It's by taking weapons away from men that they actually regain their freedom.
Tumblr media
But it goes even further than that. Why does Yoru sacrifice these fingers? Because it reinforces the fear of weapons. Let's say I point a gun at you (sorry). You'd be less scared if you were as armed as I am. Especially when you're trained, know how to defend yourself and aren't afraid to shoot.
Yoru makes those who thought they were invincible with weapons vulnerable. She strengthens the Gun Devil's power. She contracts with them through her sacrificed child.
Tumblr media
Weapons,
Tumblr media
freedom,
Tumblr media
deprivation of childhood,
Tumblr media
of loved ones,
Tumblr media Tumblr media
obsession with a mentor,
Tumblr media
To think that a god created them.
Tumblr media
Remind you of anyone?
Tumblr media
Infanticide is what makes you immortal.
Tumblr media
The sacrificed demons become weapons, lost between humanity and the demons. Not being human, nor demon, because they have no parents. Even artificial weapons like Reze and Katana display these characteristics. Isn't loneliness one of the ingredients?
Humanity sacrifices its children. As Fujimoto confirmed, they were prepared to do it for eternal youth.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And now you're going to say to me. NOOOO! Yoru too! Just as Makima wouldn't hesitate to do. The demons are also ready to do it.
Yes, because they are influenced by men.
Yoru speaks, uniting with humanity to say horrible things. Whereas Pochita doesn't speak. Worse still, he has chosen not to speak. Worst of the worst, even worse. He'd rather be a dog than a human. That's his choice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pochita fights for those he loves, he doesn't sacrifice them.
The demon of birth, it swallows but can spit out. Suspending existence, giving it new life, denying none of it.
Wasn't Makima devoured by Denji proof of this?
Nayuta is the symbol of this rebirth. A perpetual love that surpasses hate.
Tumblr media
Pochita loves demons. He also loves those who mean something to him, like Denji. But he also knows that when we become too human, we can end up sacrificing ourselves out of vanity rather than love.
Pochita has sacrificed himself for love, without expecting anything in return as he waits permanently for Denji's dreams.
Tumblr media
He is also Denji's lock, preventing him from fully adapting to men.
Tumblr media
That's why killing Black CSM was Denji's wish come true. Because Pochita is preventing Denji from becoming normal.
Tumblr media
Because he wants to protect him from humanity. Pochita has never been for humanity.
He is simply the guardian of the underworld, all those demons whose existence he guards, a supreme mother. Humanity must endure in order to continue to be afraid. But if humanity is prepared to overcome the ultimate fear of losing its child, then fear is scorned.
So Pochita tried to wipe out the weapons' existence, to devour them. But they still existed. Why? Because they are already the result of infanticide.
being devoured by the demon of birth, mother of the underworld, actually reinforces their existence.
Tumblr media
Being devoured by their mother is the reason for their nature.
Whereas weapons are beings born because their mother has killed them.
Denji is the result of the death of the Supreme Mother.
It's not a weapon.
He's a wall.
Hero of the underworld.
Tumblr media
A hero of the underworld who has been fighting from the start for the victory of love, sacrificing himself for those he loves and not sacrificing them. So he asks for blood.
Tumblr media
And I'm sorry. If weapons really are born like that, they have to look human, and I think this is the last possessed human.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Someone's been ringing the doorbell.....for 100 chapters… it's time to answer it, isn't it?

Not Fujimoto showing us that behind the paper thin face of "Liberty" is just another monstrosity born of the military industrial complex purpose built to cause untold destruction to other nations the world around. So much so that the mere concept of the American dream is enough to crush thousands of lives with the wave of a finger.
Not Fujimoto dismantling and critiquing american gun fetishization and imperialism so fucking succinctly in a single fucking chapter after having spent the previous two showing the evil in mothers treating their children as tools and then showing us how War uses the children of a nation as weapons for wanton destruction.
Not Fujimoto then showing us how the elderly of the world would gladly sacrifice their children and grandchildren to a weaponized embodiment of motherhood in a fight against the horrors of war solely to extend their own pathetic lives.
Not Fujimoto showing us beforehand that the Gun Devil is always used as a tool by the elites and those who seek control and violence, never having a will of its own like a literal child soldier.
pure fucking kino
