You ever read something and you try to make sense of it?
Listen, I write quite a few posts and I say it myself that I don't expect people to ever agree with them. (Honestly, I don't write the posts to be right. I write them to share my thoughts.)
But sometimes... I just read other articles and by the end of it, I'm confused. I need to stop being recommended ScreenRant articles because I saw this...
Tumblr media
And thought "HUH?!"
What was the scene?
Oh, Geto strangling Kenjaku apparently was the "wasted potential" scene. "It could have drastically changed the story".
Apparently, by Geto taking control over his body again. Gets better!
Tumblr media
When you're a manga reader...
My question though is... why did Geto need to come back? What exactly is the purpose that would have served to the story when his death did make an impact. AS STATED LATER IN THE SAME ARTICLE!
Tumblr media
Was that scene "wasted potential" because Geto didn't come back? Again, how? His death did mean something to the story as well to (some) individual characters.
Geto coming back and taking full control of his body would have made a totally different story. That would have also knocked out Kenjaku, who other than Sukuna, is one of the major villains who, yes, is important to the story.
From Geto as a teenager to his death, he served his purpose!
I get there's AUs of Geto not dying and him not turning evil, but sometimes canon (regardless if you think it needs to be better) is already good as it is.
Yes, Geto gaining control of his body would have changed the story, but in a good way? I wouldn't say so. After all, JJK is a story of tragedy. Characters should be dying in this kind of story.
That scene being "wasted potential"? Just me, but no. It was enough for Geto to gain just that little bit of control. That scene did its job pulling the heartstrings of many. It was meant to do that.
And spoiler, this person mentions how in that scene Geto and Gojo could have reconciled.
In that scene? No... think about it.
An underground subway station with bodies, bodies and would you look at that... more bodies with blood splattered on the wall and floor with Gojo held hostage by one of the creepiest boxes I have ever seen in a manga?
I think I prefer the airport.
Ooh, and what else? They did... they did probably reconcile AT THE END OF JJK 0, WHICH THE PERSON WHO WROTE THE ARTICLE MENTIONS!!!
