Ginji's not in control (chat copypaste)

⚠️CAUTION!! i’m not eng native, this is an unedited text from my notes, structural & grammatical errors ahead⚠️

need a lot of translation and digging to find the truth-- but also, doesn't Morita just look good in blood? while Ginji looks kind of pathetic in it? I rly like the aesthetic hehe--

for me that's his wet dog outfit haha

I mean if he's menacingly smiling like he killed someone and the blood is on his hands or face-- yeah

if HE'S bleeding-- unlike Morita, Ginji's kinda pathetic in his own pool of blood (but that's just the vibes huhu)

then again it's just bc I like breaking characters facade a lot-- for me if I'd write Morita in his own blood, he'd probably be berserk mode or post that with tears (see Kamui arc lol)

if I'd do Ginji I'd probably write him being taken by surprise with "why did it come to this" kind of emotion--

I honestly like the kinda portrayal of Ginji where he sorta anticipates where his life would go

Idk how to describe it, but like I can see Akagi being taken by surprise a lot more than Ginji lol

also unlike Akagi, Ginji was drawn taken aback by something in manga... if Akagi reacts going "ooh? go ahead, show me" then Ginji gets that drop of sweat treatment lol;;

instances I remember are 1) Ginji listening to the exposition of men cage lol 2) running to the elevator bc of Morita’s proclamation of retirement

I also don't think Ginji intended for the serial killer arc to go as it went haha--

so I'd say Ginji is very competent at putting up a front but he's never actually in control

I'd say he's the type of character who'd do this:

- look, Morita, it'll land tails (flips a coin)

it lands on heads

- heh, the coin was rigged, I planned it all along... from this, Morita, you have to learn a lesson to not believe anyone, not even yourself 

and Morita nods with a serious face and thinks "damn Ginji's so smart and handsome”

I distinctly remember when I read GtK for the first time and wasn't even crazy yet, in Kamui arc Morita was yet to get into real mess and he held a gun and was planning and scheming how to get someone from the back in the dark-- and I thought damn;; he's younger than me, he turned complete yakuza in such a short span of story omg–

then it all made sense for me, that's when GtK finally started clicking in my head

I was like yeah yeah let's see where this corruption arc goes

AND IT DOESN'T

Morita just says fuck your corruption arc dammit I'm retiring

that's!!!! peak

and they don't even do it in The straight men fashion lol

they do it with Morita crying into a pillow and Ginji RUNNING to the elevator, smoking nodding and going "yeah yeah-- it's all ugh it's all part of the plan-- I uuuh FORESEEN THIS yes.....”

kmd-san likes to say that GtK is about turning steel (tetsuo) into gold -- that you can't bend Morita's moral code because he has an iron will like that-- and wasn't that the first thing Ginji liked Morita for? that test of "kill for the money" that Morita refused... which he passed with flying colours by not accepting the premise itself "I won't kill anyone and I don't want to make money like that" was basically his answer then-- in the end, I think, Ginji caused his own downfall and their heartbreaking falling out with Morita, all by himself

ah sorry it's not just gay story it's also a nasty huge age gap story + teacher/pupil dynamics.... damn they've had a lot on their plate from the very start huh

Akira: Ginji's mistake is taking him to solo missions, should've kept the leash short haha

I mean he courted Morita into submission by giving him space for two arcs and making him believe that's what he wanted in the first place (to be by Ginji's side as a reward) but that's a very risky almost self-sabotaging strategy

almost creates an illusion it all was voluntary wish from Morita's side huhu

like what was the probability of Morita not only returning but also multiplying the profits when he's left alone 1) with measly amount of money on the rooftop 2) to double his FIRST win and return AGAIN--

Pansy: I think the missions themselves were a reward too, "because I trust you I want you to do this". but Gin's morals were too twisted to notice Mori didn't have the same perspective as him when it comes to who is good/bad

he did get help from Gin during the arc art (which makes Gin's mentality of ~lucky~ Morita feel dumb to me)

Gin was so stupid to believe Mori could just do anything.

Akira: whenever Ginji said something about luck I find myself musing about that being an elaborate form of gaslighting hahah

but as a lot of lies do, when they're repeated you start to believe them yourself

Pansy: my headcanon is that Gin fell in love with Mori at first sight, got obsessed with him and truly believed Mori was "the chosen on". he thought he was too old to fall in love again and got the feelings all mixed. His heart got confused and he blindly believed that Mori was 100% his.

Akira: "I want Morita's luck by my side"

spend years together and

"Morita's my lucky charm"

ofc when left without him Ginji's feeling like he's reaching his limits and heading to the ultimate defeat 'turning to ashes'... he's lost his lucky charm didn't he

Pansy: As you say, when they broke up I think Gin realised he still had the ability to feel that sort of pain and in the end he accepted it.

I think Gin gaslights himself more than he does to Mori

Akira: imagining Ginji falling in love with Mori at various stages of the beginning of the manga-- hehe from the early point of "yeah I know everything about you and you know nothing about me, isn't it romantic?" to the "ah you won't kill for the money, your morals are unbending like that, I know~" tease and "not only did he rescue my ass but also left us with tape evidence itself... grabs the steering wheel with a manic smile"

If followed correctly then Ginji tries to act "professionally" doing what he was proposed to do and left Morita with serial killer duty, then he gets scared and surprised by it bc Morita's losing blood in his hands, in his car... so obviously he takes a step back and goes to break up things between them right after lol he's just an old man who doesn't understand how to do things differently (is he an avoidant attachment style? lol;;)

then Morita returns to him twice and each time he's a bit different but still the same young man, and Ginji is just glad, bc somehow it works out between them right? they have roles to play and they have business to do, everything is fine... until it isn't

and in the end Ginji's left behind and Morita's retiring and the tables turn... "I know everything about you, Gin-san, and you know nothing about me" huhu

I never considered Gin would try to break up with Mori bc of feelings of guilt, or fear that Mori would die. But then in the middle of the art mission he goes "fuck it I want him BACK I will help him just a lil bit"

hahhaha I mean it's obviously set up as Ginji putting up another test for Morita but what's Ginji to fucking win and to lose there

Pansy: his pride!!

Akira: I mean yeah, he's leaving Morita like for sure leaving him altogether hahah

imagine a guy rescuing your risky stock haste, then he gets stabbed bc of you and almost dies in your arms and your reaction is to leave him be forever? something doesn't click

and reaction of "hm yeah that's not enough of a proof, I'll leave him with another test" doesn't read that honest too

Pansy: or maybe he thought "FUCK he is actually willing to die for me? I will play hard to get in case he gets too intense..."  Morita we are breaking up. But then Mori is so cool Gin ends up giving in ❤️

Akira: remember that start of the poker arc when Morita's dressed in that clouds sweater and coat with a fur haha and he's just carrying that bag like he's homeless;; now imagine Ginji in that situation and that amount of money in his hands

not only would he whip out the metal money case without a second thought, I can clearly see him visiting the perfume store right after lol;;;

I mean... Ginji deserves his title as an underground fixer, he acts like it...
