naw, I mean, I get being sad that gojo died and wishing it didn't happen, but I've been seeing people saying that it made no sense for him to lose here and that's just not true, let's not do that, a happy ending would have been wonderful for everyone but gojo was not the main protagonist and his death was spelled out the moment he started fighting the main antagonist. let alone that gege said a trillion years ago that the only one who could ever defeat him was megumi so it only made sense that adding megumi and sukuna to each other meant getting someone stronger than gojo. And even outside of in-universe reasons why this was the obvious outcome, from a storytelling pov gojo couldn't stay alive with just how overpowered he was, what's yuuji for if everything can be solved by him? Again, gojo's not the protagonist, he doesn't get to be the saitama or mob of jjk, he's not allowed to be that overpowered and survive it'd just break the plot. I'm saying that you get to be sad about it and wish it wasn't so, but saying that his death wasn't obvious from the moment people started dying liberally or that it wasn't natural for him to lose against sukuna in this form is just not true
#jjk spoilers#personally i find it a satisfying end for him#he was sad and depressed and living a shitty lonely life with the prospect of staying alive enough to see everyone he loved die before him#this is a story yk it's not real life#he gets to find a happy ending in the afterlife if that's the only way for him#this is NOT a satisfying situation for shoko of course but this isn't about her so I'm giving this to gojo#gege gave him peace he gets to have that#the whole speech about the loneliness of being the strongest and how nice it felt for him to find someone stronger than him#like yeah#yeah#he gets to have that for me#but you can be sad about it! disappointed that he couldn't find happiness in his life! that's not wrong!#it's just that it's not true it made no sense for him to die#you can hate it but under every light it's been obvious he'd go for a while now
