Where is "so they can be together" she left the first chance she got and didn't contact him for like fifty years just to traumatize him AGAIN.

And I cannot remember her saying sorry, even once.

Akane who sacrifices her entire life, and her loved ones lives, and the lives of many others, all in the hopes that she can forge a timeline where she and Junpei can be together and live a peaceful life, only to have traumatized Junpei so much in the process that he doesn’t want anything to do with her in the end

Finally thought of a funny combination of that one meme that applies to me.

And she doesn't even apologise

Yeah i trapped your bestie in a timeloop sorry, im sending his mind back in time, yeah hes gonna have to recreate the very events needed for the timeloop to exist, thus stopping his existence as a free individual and forever binding him to the existential horror of all his actions being predetermened by the forces as integral to the universe as gravity,

yeah sorry, youre coming too

There’s a lot of things that Gege has done in JJK that have broken my heart—Nanami, Gojo, Nobara, Megumi, etc., etc., you get the point.

BUT NONE HURT AS MUCH AS JUNPEI GOD DAMMIT

MAPPA WAS FUCKING CRUEL FOR PUTTING JUNPEI IN THE OPENING AND GIVING ME FALSE HOPE!!! (I was an anime only at the time.)

Rewatching jjk and realized I’ve always had a soft spot for the sadboy and sunshine incarnate

He would deserve this <3

"We love emo boy❤️"

It may sound weird but I like how short yet impactful Riko's role is in the story.

Objectively, we only spent a very short time with her. So, did Gojo and Geto.

Riko only has barebones of a characterization with no proper arc to speak of.

We know she's only a fourteen year old orphan lovingly raised by her maid. She felt isolated by her specialness and had long convinced herself that she was okay to be assimilated into Tengen.

We know that she loved her friends. She loved Kuroi. She loved having fun at the beach - that one special carefree day at Okinawa stripped her of her own lies about being alright with dying.

We know she was a girl who chose to live at the last second before the end.

Those are the only things we know about her. Too little of a glimpse to truly know and judge her but they were no less meaningful.

Riko Amanai is a fourteen year old girl. She loves her sole family and friends. She wanted to live. That was all the reason Gojo and Geto needed to lay their own lives to protect her. No more. No less.

Riko Amanai was a fourteen year old girl in a story about sorcery. Her role is pitifully short and her background is at best murky. However, we understand, without question, that she deserved more - could have offered more. She wanted to live just as we wanted her to live. No more. No less.

Kouichi proposes. He feels like he has to, it's expected of him. Study, get a good job, get rich, get a wife, two kids, divorce, escape into alcohol, die. He has seen enough livers destroyed by alcohol that he figures the faster he gets to that stage the bigger his chance of recovery is. Maybe he'll even have time for a second wife and two more kids.

He should be able to afford all of that on a doctor's salary.

So he proposes. Nothing big, just dinner at a restaurant. A band is playing, Izumu is wearing a very pretty dress. Kouichi's wearing a black and gold suit. He misses being Löwemon, life was simpler back then.

But Izumi is looking beautiful and Kouichi's future is looking bleak. He plays with the box in his pocket, turns it over in his hand. Smiles, because Izumi is beautiful. But his smile feels stiff. Izumi talks and her voice is like a summer's breeze. Soft, soothing. She's Kouichi's future. Part of it. Until she gets tired of him.

Maybe she'll poison him instead of a divorce. It'd be kind of poetic, Kouichi thinks. He puts the box on the table, pushes it to Izumi.

"Do you want to marry me?" he asks.

Doesn't go down on one knee because marriage is a contract and not something to make a fool of himself for. Izumi looks at the box, at Kouichi, at the box. Hesitates.

"No", she says.

Kouichi nods, grabs the box again. Puts it back into his pocket. Doesn't argue.

If he can't get a wife, does he skip directly to the alcohol? He's not sure.

"Ask me again when it's what you want", Izumi continues.

Kouichi nods, takes a sip of the wine. When it's something he wants. He's not sure what that means.

Marriage is expected of him. Soon. But Izumi has never been predictable. He smiles at her.

"I love you", he says.

Because it's expected of him. And he does. She smiles back.

"I love you too."

I’m just bound to fall in love with characters who get killed off shortly after they’re introduced, huh?

[hellishparadiseforthelost]

I know I keep saying this--but Junpei will be added to this blog. He is closer to my type: tragic, suffering minor/main characters that die too soon. :')
