the fact that megumi was supposed to be the MC makes me giddy as hell. ITS ALL COMING TOGETHER GUYS
#in the context of jjk it feels like the main character and the protagonist are not exactly the same thing#yuuji is the main character who was stripped away of all the things that made him the protagonist#and all the things that made yuuji the protagonist were later given to megumi#megumi is the “chosen one” the one in a million but all those things that normally would make the main character the protagonist#are out of megumi’s control#the story is still about yuuji#the story could only take place BECAUSE of yuuji and yuuji's CHOICES that’s why he’s the main character#yes kenjaku orchiestrated everything about yuuji's birth and role in life but yuuji is still the one who CHOSE to consume sukuna’s finger#yuuji was still the one who CHOSE to#not include himself in the binding vow sukuna made him enter#those are two pivotal points in the story and yuuji was the one who made them#yuuji may not be ”the choosen one” BUT THATS A GOOD THING#that means that even tho kenjaku orchestrated yuuji’s role in life yuuji was and still is the one in charge of his own life and story#he even decided to postpone his own execution wondering “why the heck I have to be executed”#he gets to chose what he’ll do next and NOT FATE#megumi is the one who’s “blessed” he inherited the most powerful zenin ct he’s father was the catalyst that started it all#he’s the one who was#the one in a million chance to be sukuna’s vessels#and megumi didn’t have ANY say in that#because all this time megumi didn’t get to be in charge of his own life#gege really had the fate toy with him just like reggie said to him back then#megumi gets to be the protagonist (or more like have a role of the protagonist) because he let the “fate” dictate his life for him#(unless noooowww he decides to finally take the reins of his life and save himself from his fate)#itadori yuuji#fushiguro megumi#I’m yapping I don’t even know if this makes sense I was caught in a moment skksskks

Does anyone know of a discord server for jjk fans that isn’t centered around the hypermasculine part of the fandom that calls megumi bumgumi and sukuna fraudkuna and focuses on powerscaling (Reddit)
I need a discord that will match my unhinged stsg energy. Thx
#jjk#satosugu#stsg#jujutsu kaisen#i like making sexy art of geto but without the straight male gaze bye#‘looks female enough’ shut the fuck up and just say you are attracted to a fictional character it’s literally just pixels on a screen#it has no real effect on your irl sexuality unless you want it to you donut#AND I CANT STAND PEOPPLE REDUCING CHARACTERS TO THEIR STRENGTH#megumi get behind me#ANNNNND SHUT UP ABOUT THEY’RE JUST FRIENDS#that is YOUR interpretation#i hate being gaslit into thinking there is no fucking subtext behind characters interactions ffs#AND WHY CALL GEGE GAYGAY#JUST STAWP

I’M CRYING
tell me why i was scrolling through twitter at 4am, stalking the gojo tag cuz why not, and then i see that this man would probably be a freeloader or a swallow (japanese term for a literal sugar baby, according to my sources - correct me if i’m wrong) to older women if not a jujutsu sorcerer?
I’M CACKLING 😭 GEGE, WHAT IS THIS?

#i’m 17#but if this man is supposedly ‘dead’ at 29#gotta wait a little over a decade and i’ll be an older woman#the wolf is me#i am she#she is me#yes it’s a girl#🎀#i’m just a girl#gojo satoru#gojo#satoru gojo#jjk#jujutsu kaisen#guys i’m CRYING#like genuinely#this is the funniest thing i’ve seen#why does he want to be pampered when he’s already rich?#okay passenger princess#i see you 💀#the princess of the fandom (and of anime entirely)#what have i been sayinggg#the man would 100% spoil you but expect to be pampered just as much#unless i’m wrong and there was a mistranslation#in that case i’ll be going into hiding#but otherwise#join me in spoiling my pretty blue eyed princess#gege go seek therapy#why couldn’t he just say ‘he’s coming back’ and leave it at that?#😭

Now that the translations are out I gotta say that IF this is trully how it ends for him, I'm disappointed. Like I was never under the illusion that Gojo would've survived till the end of the manga but this just feels so... off? So underwhelming, almost? Like, it feels incomplete and granted, Gege has killed characters that, arguably, weren't finished with their arcs (Nobara, Nanami) before but even if we take that into consideration this one still feels so wrong to me.
Obviously I wanted Gojo to win and obviously everyone knew that he wasn't going to (historically, he has always lost something so important whenever he 'wins' a battle that it renders his victory almost meaningless) but killing him off screen, even with all of the explanations, when he was straight up folding Sukuna's shit for like 10 chapters straight just feels cheap and Sukuna's victory actually feels undeserved to me bc of it.
He was on the defence most of the fight. He pulled out every single thing he could from Megumi's CT and STILL got his ass handed to him multiple times. Im gonna be real, despite me making fun of his ✨fraud-core✨ chapters, I like Sukuna. I like him a lot as a character and as an antagonist and so I want to see his victory actually mean something, or be hard won since this was a fight between THE pillars of the jujutsu world. Perhaps if he killed Gojo with his own CT it would have felt more right ? Maybe..
Besides all of that, what happens now? What could possibly be done against Sukuna now that The Strongest is out of the picture? Kashimo, and let it be known that i love him dearly, will be folded in probably 2 chapters max. Yuta (<3), Yuuji, Maki, Hakari and his domain will not be enough.
Like sometimes I feel like people just either forget or don't grasp the sheer depth of the power gap between Gojo and EVERYONE else. It's just so insanely large that after defeating him, Sukuna is trully unstoppable. And if Gege pulls some shit and has him defeated regardless, then that will just be bad writing and Gege, for all I curse him on the daily, isn't a bad writer.
Truth be told, whenever a chapter ended before, I wasn't all that scared that Gojo was done for solely because the manga would have ended. Like, in universe, if Gojo goes down then it's a wrap for everyone else pretty much immediately (like mans got sealed and not even 10minutes later everything went to hell in that godforsaken train station) so now that this has happened I trully wonder where this will go from here?
#im just... idk feeling a lot of things abt this chapter#on another note MAKI COMFORTING YUUTA IN THAT ONE PANEL MAKES ME WANNA D WORD#yuuta my beloved this wasnt ur fault you would have been attommized the moment u stepped foot on that battle field#this was just me having to get these tought outta my head bc. it was driving me up the walls#i have. somewhat. of a trust in gege that he will somehow pull through#and by that i mean i have faith in his writing skills#gege when i catch ur ass in hell its so over for you#anyways someone check on shoko and yuuji before i track down this fukass one eyed cat and make him into wet cement#i trully hope that his pillows are warm on both sides. unless he enjoys that. in which case i hope they r blocks of ice#jjk spoilers#jjk 236#gojo satoru#pebbles (me) ramblers#long post#-ish#the anime ep tho... the amount of Toughts i have are just. unlimited#gotta say the decision to make him gigfle when he was making hanami into wall paint was DIABOLICAL#feral gojo my absolute beloved you are so mentally ill its insane#im NOT talking abt the box. im NOT. thinking abt gojo's 'huh?' when he heard kenjaku calling him i am NOT subjecting myself to that again#okkotsu yuuta#jjk thoughts#jjk sukuna#its 2.20am and im so so 'eepy#youtube play 'mr loverman'#jujutsu kaisen

i don't think there's ever been a mangaka whose brain i wanted to dissect more than gege's
#his thought process eludes me#like wtf are you doing lore dumping irrelevant shit on the ante penultimate chapter bro???????#i've seen people argue that it's hinting to a part 2 à la chainsaw man but i don't buy it#the weekly grind has put his health through the wringer there's no way he's coming back for a sequel#didn't he literally say around ch 150 that he just wanted to finish the story asap?#unless he's setting up a sequel & someone else will take over à la boruto???#jjk#cami.txt#gege akutami#anyway gege continues to be a menace and a troll what else is new

I wonder if Yuuta will eventually join the Sukuna fight or if his absence is implying he might go off to try and find Kenjaku while the others are busy
#hard to tell rn since sukuna is a very immediate threat#but kenjakus saying that they’ll be fine bc yuuta maki and hakari will fight sukuna if gojo loses#also makes me think that could potentially go against kenjaku if they’re wrong and maki and yuuta go after them too#idk idk. I don’t want kenjaku to fight and die by yuutas hands without kenjaku having more to do (esp with yuuji)#so even though it’s heavily set up they’ll fight 😭 hoping that’s not all 😭#but we’ll see. I’m not expecting those answers for awhile unless gege randomly changes perspectives#jjk spoilers#jjk 238

OP: When I posted about Caleb and forgot to block my elder brother
Cnetizens discuss the disastrous misunderstanding caused by the word Gege哥哥 lol
(Context: Caleb is a very popular character from love and deepspace, and he is MC's gege because they are adopted by the same person but they are not blood related or raised up like siblings. Gege is a chinese term literally meaning elder brother but is actually used as a term of endearment among men, including your brother, cousins, boyfriend, crush, your fave idol, a male friend who is older than you, sort like oniisan in japanese and oppa in korean. BTW the prounciation isn't Ge in George but G in Gwen so it's incorrect to say it like gigi. The term depends enormously on context as it isn't necessarily romantic and often just be nice and respectful and polite by default e.g. A Chinese girl will call the son of her mother's best friend who is elder than her "Gege" or "His name-gege" such as LiShen gege, QinChe gege, if his name is three words or more, then they won't use the full name + gege, only the last two syllables - gege, like Xinghui gege or Yizhou gege, that's the convention. Many people think Gege is a bit cutesy and they prefer to go by Ge or Name-ge when calling their normal male friends or cousins they grew up with to show familiarity. Gege is usually used by children and girls, while women over 25-35 use ge more often, unless they are really close to the male or they just like the male very much to imply emotional intimacy, or they indeed are intentionally trying to flirt with him (Not 100% sure, a case-by-case analysis). Most people will just use ge哥 when calling their elder brother to avoid any possible ambiguity caused by gege. Sometimes people also use 'ge' as a general informal honorific on men, commonly used by salespeople to address VIPs. So Gege can be romantic or cheeky or flirty sometimes depending on who you're addressing and the situation. Also Chinese women would never call a male collegue gege in the workplace, don't ever do it, it would be very forward and cringy and unprofessional, but they may call him lastname-ge to show respect, such as "Zhang Ge, Chen Ge, Xiao Ge". )
ps Jiejie姐姐=elder sister, Meimei妹妹=younger sister, Didi弟弟=younger brother, Saozi嫂子=your elder brother's girlfriend or wife, Jiefu姐夫=your elder sister's boyfriend or husband, Dimei弟妹=your younger brother's girlfriend or wife, Meifu妹夫=your younger sister's boyfriend or husband. Chinese maintains a sharp distinction between relatives on the mother's side (cognates) and relatives on the father's side (agnates), and has all kinship terms covering each different relative in the extended family.

Steps to bagging shizun (modern edition)
- tell yuan gege you're posting camboy videos online for money
- he will try to help you financially, but you insist you won't take any money you haven't earned yourself
- "if yuan ge REALLY insists on helping though.. if I had a partner I'd make a lot more..."
- extremely tender lovemaking with the love of your life saved on camera for only you to see (the camboy thing wasn't a LIE its just that you set the viewing price to 50,000 yuan per video so not one person has ever watched you)
Bonus: you can easily go "someone who watches my videos (yourself) said they'll unsubscribe unless you wear women's clothes and let me call you my wife and edge you for 2 hours while your hands are tied above your head" and he'll be like damn. Well if I must
Okay I lied he wouldn't fucking say that but it's my fantasy okay

BAD NEWS | CHAPTER INDEX/PROLOGUE (Part 1-64)
-just when you thought you were over your humongous crush on your older brother’s best friend, geto suguru, you couldn’t be more dead wrong, and maybe there isn’t really anything holding you back from acting on it now that you’re all grown up…except satoru doesn’t like suguru for you because he knows his kind all too well: a huge ass playboy who breaks hearts like he changes socks. but you think. MAYBE you’ll be the exception...maybe not.
CHARACTERS: drummer!geto suguru x (fem/afab) reader x guitarist!sukuna | gojo satoru | itadori yuuji | kugisaki nobara | fushiguro megumi | sukuna | fushiguro toji | nanami kento | choso | tsukumo yuuki | shoko ieiri | utahime iori
GENRE: full-length smau + prose | band au, tats, piercings, the whole shebang | college au | stupid pining | aged-up characters | friends to lovers (?) | this is gonna have smutty stuff because why not?
TW/CW: strong/mature language | adult content so mdni on some parts; just skip them. you’re not missing much | mentions of alcohol, drugs | mentions of cheating, promiscuity, mild dubcon (consent >>>), etc. | again, god-awful pet names i’d cringe at if a 3d person says it | toxic behavior | will add more if something arises
AKI’S NOTES: I would like to express my sincerest thanks to everyone who loved and supported “Thawing Ice Queen” as well as those who participated in the poll on which smau I’m going to write next. So, this is what won in said poll, and I hope it gets as much as love as TIQ if not more. Reblogs and likes are very much appreciated, and I actively respond to comments as well as Asks. Also, if you’re interested, I will include you in the tag list. Just message me through whatever avenue you’re most comfortable with. Happy reading!


ADDITIONAL NOTES: i will be using pics and other media which would fit situations and make the smau-ness of this piece a little more realistic and entertaining when i believe it’s appropriate/fitting to the plot (as i've done with TIQ). having said that, with regard to inclusivity, i just want to put it out there that they will not necessarily be aimed as the exact descriptions to fit a supposedly generic reader nor will they be representative of a specific race or color (even if you’re/the reader is gojo’s sister here). it’s all for the simple fact of media availability, for funsies and the fact that i don’t exclusively write in consideration of those aspects when using reader-insert characters unless i specify it. thank you for understanding.

Shidou Ryusei ‧₊˚ ⋅ Relationship Heacanons + Mini Scenario
ଳ character; shidou ryusei (blue lock) ଳ tags; sfw, gn reader, no y/n
— Slow burn? What’s that? Neither of you know the concept of it because once you found each other… there was just absolutely no letting go. I mean, you have to be the rarest catch ever to be able to match the freak of Shidou Ryusei. Everything between you happens fast.
— Fast as it is, he’ll never let you forget how much he loves you. He’s so aggressive with his loving too (good luck; you’ll need it). Frenzied kisses, hugs that squeeze the life outta you, and all the weirdly sweet compliments are some of the things you can expect from him.
— Not much of a surprise, but the love language that he likes to give and receive would be physical touch. And we know he’s freaky as hell, but the touches don’t always have to be sexual. In fact, he looooves it when you pat his head and massage his scalp. It’s literally the only time when he’s calm and quiet.
— He never takes you out on dates and you don’t complain. Well, he doesn’t take you out on the TYPICAL kinds of dates. Neither of you like dinner dates or movie nights; they’re too boring. You’d much rather go get takeout at 2 AM and eat it in the parking lot. If it’s not spontaneous, then it has to be something that leaves both of you out of breath—laser tag, amusement parks, and paintball to name a few.
— Despite being on the same wavelength, you still fight quite a lot. However, it’s never so serious that you start shouting and hurting each other emotionally. Actually… most of your quarrels are super childish. The last thing you fought about was whether or not Gege should bring Gojo back. Spoiler alert: he’s a Gojo hater.
— I can totally imagine him watching anime with you. He’s lowkey a weeb, trust. It’s actually one of the more calm moments you have with him. That is, if you consider him reacting to every little thing happening to be calm. Best believe he’s shouting at the screen at the most hype moments of the show. He Naruto runs unironically btw.
— He’s… shockingly the possessive type? Like I can imagine that it took him forever to find someone like you, so the prospect of losing you to someone else pisses him the fuck off. He won’t try to hide it too. He’ll still be all sweet with you, but when you look away—whoever tried to poach you will be facing his wrath.
— People are convinced the two of you can communicate telepathically. You can just give each other a look and you both already know what it means. Soooo many inside jokes that if someone else heard the two of you talk, they’d give you a weird look.
— People wouldn’t usually invite Shidou out, unless you would be tagging along. With you around, Shidou isn’t much of a menace. The two of you become the fun couple that livens up the gathering. In short, y’all some crazy fun.
ᯓ Dancing scenario
It was one of those lazy Sundays that the two of you would spend hanging out in your bedroom. It was unusually quiet as both of you were busy scrolling through your phones. A different audio blaring from each of your devices while you scrolled through several Tiktoks.
"Ryu, look at this one," you say, thrusting the phone into his face. "Let's do this dance."
It was one of the simpler dances you found. Everything else was too complicated for the both of you to do in synchrony. You gave him some time to watch it twice and he grins.
The way he hurriedly got off the bed was enough to let you know that he was up for it. You followed suit, preparing your phone to record the two of you dancing like idiots.
Shidou was already practicing on the side. "Heh, this is easy!" But, alas, he was doing it horribly wrong as he always did.
Finally getting the phone ready, you smirk at his silly attempt at the dance and approach him. "You got it all wrong!"
Of course, he insists that he was doing it flawlessly. But you still show him how to do it. About 15 minutes have passed before he became decent at the moves. It's not like you wanted perfection—the mediocrity of your moves makes it funnier anyway. But at the very least, you wanted him to be able to resemble the dance.
"Alright, alright, just hit the record button already. Don't be so fussy. I dance better than you do!"
You playfully glare at him. "Yeah, whatever you say."
Once the phone started recording, you hurriedly went to your place beside him. The music starts and you were able to hit the first few moves. But as you neared the end, Shidou did a different move.
"See? Who messed up first?"
He doesn't own up to it, of course. Shidou, instead, demands for a 2nd take...
then another...
then one more...
then another take...
then, you finally couldn't take it anymore because how is it possible that the more you do it—the more mistakes the both of you do? In the last take, unfortunately, you were the one who messed up.
He gave you that look and you already knew he was going to rub it in your face.
"Hah! Told you I'm the better dancer."
Oh... he did not just say that.
Without another thought, you pounced on him like a wild animal. He should be thankful that your bed caught him, otherwise he wouldn't be attending football practice tomorrow.
You were a self-proclaimed jiu-jitsu fighter when it came to playfighting with him. Well, you don't know the moves or even the name of the moves—but the point is that you have to make him tap out no matter what.
To some extent, this was your little way of showing cuteness aggression—more so the aggression part. Sometimes he just gets on your nerves and this is the only thing that appeases you.
The two of you roll around on the bed, trying to gain leverage over the other. At some point, both of you almost fell off the bed. But he caught the both of you fast enough and flung you back to the other side of the bed.
As he recovered from that, you slipped him into a chokehold. It was a light one, of course. It wasn't like you wanted him to actually pass out.
"What? Gonna tap out?"
He smirks back at your cocky expression and taps your thigh to let you know he was throwing in the towel. He gave up without much of a fight, but that was his own way of letting you know how whipped he is for you.
Shidou might not be good with words, but you fall for his actions nonetheless.
You smile triumphantly at him. "Guess that makes me the better fighter huh?"
A devilish grin stretches across his dark expression
"I demand a round 2."

there is nothing that triggers me more than people who preach about yibo being “miserable”. and by that i mean someone who has it in their head that he will never be happy unless he gets to be with his gege. that his smile will never be the same as what it was in 2019 ( whatever that means ) so that’s a sign that he is sad.
i tried to make this post more mellow but i just can’t. the utter disrespect to yibo is inexcusable. i am pleading at this point, yibo is a real person. please treat him as one. it’s one thing when we cpn and we all know we are in that space of clowning. but making claims about his emotional disposition and insinuating he is depressed is out of line.


this year he was busy with mermaid. then he did ETU because he wanted to live his life more ( said it himself ) , and discovery channel, i would imagine, is a dream partnership for yibo. he is a wildaid ambassador so the pangolin documentary makes sense. his racing was also a treat cause we all know how much he enjoys it. it’s years in the making and he was able to do it. and to reduce that into “distractions”? distraction to what? how “miserable” he is because he can’t be with xz 24/7? it’s so stupid i’m sure if xz hears this he will slap the person who said it. lol. the audacity to reduce his advocacies, his dreams and what gives more meaning to his life into things he is “forced” to do just to fit your cpf narrative is insane. please stop. yibo is already 27, not 22. please expect changes. he is growing and if you actually listen to what he says, you will treat him with more grace.
i believe being able to spend more time with xz will improve his quality of life. that’s a fact. what’s not is that yibo is not allowed to be happy if what he is doing is not connected to xz. please respect their choices. if it doesn’t fit your cpf hopes and dreams it’s not their fault.
i sometimes say clown responsibly and that’s still true. but i think we can also add clown respectfully from now on.

so, if Gege’s “three will die and one survives” statement holds true and no one comes back to life, both possible scenarios are compelling in their own way (megumi or yuji being the one to die)
on the one hand, Yuji dying would be a full circle moment; one of the first things established in the story (before everything went off the rails for the characters) was that this story would end with Yuji’s death after he had eaten all of the fingers. It would also fulfill his grandfather’s wish of him dying surrounded by people (also possibly not dying alone in the most absolute sense if he manages to get Sukuna back in him and they go down together)
Ending a story the way it was supposed to end (according to the characters) from the start but getting there in a different way than expected scratches an itch in my brain
if that happens however Megumi is the lone survivor, which would be absolute tragedy, considering how Megumi’s will to live (according to this latest chapter) hinges on being there for Yuji… losing Yuji would break the bit of him he has managed to claw back together from the bath…
on the other hand, Megumi dying and leaving Yuji as the sole survivor would be a cool subversion of the expectation originally set up at the beginning of the story (where, if everything went “right”, Yuji would have been the only casualty out of the main cast)
though Megumi dying after just getting the will to fight back and pulling himself out of the “bath” with Yuji’s support would make his loss even more painful, i do think Yuji is capable of “surviving” his loss and moving forward (one could also argue that Yuji’s purpose in the Jujutsu world would end with Sukuna’s death, but a major point of chapter 265 was to establish that Yuji has shaken the cog mentality and embraced living for living’s sake)
Yuji is a character who would have been trying to save people no matter what, even if he had never gotten involved with Jujutsu (see the interview about him becoming a firefighter otherwise), he has shaken the cog mentality, and while i believe he would mourn Megumi greatly (as well as everyone else he has lost in the past 24 hours and hasn’t had time to process, my poor boy T-T), i do think, if only one of them could live, him surviving would end the story on a more hopeful note than Megumi… which is not to say either is a better/worse writing choice
(i just spent way too many words on why i think both are compelling options)
either way, i need Gege to give me a scene of all of them being happy together in the airport/afterlife (can’t believe i’m asking this cat to give me a Supernatural style “last survivor dies of old age and goes to heaven where he is reunited with all of his loved ones)
unless of course, gege decided to say fuck that and let’s them both live, or let’s sukuna win WHO KNOWS, diabolical cat

Gojo’s letters & the implied parting message (Part 2)
I came across a view on Twitter (now X) that was interesting that I probably would have never thought of myself. While I may not agree with it 100% on its own, I can totally see the value in it and I wanted to share it here, seeing as how others may appreciate the perspective too. I’ve added my own thoughts which you’re welcome to read… Then you can make up your own mind about your personal interpretation 😊
So the sentiment is as follows:
At the end of HI, past-Gojo casually went up to Megumi to tell him that he killed his father, showing us that he is a little tactless. But, upon being told what Megumi wanted, he respected that Megumi didn’t want to know and accepted this for 10 years.

Despite that; however, we can infer from things we have been shown that he has always wanted Megumi to know. He was probably waiting for a good time. (As we know, Gojo doesn’t really impose his view onto others.)
Knowing there had to be a time where this message was delivered, he prepped the letter that would only be delivered if he (Gojo) died.
And what better timing & purpose, if it could help Megumi absolve any guilt he might have over (his body) killing Gojo? (Because him being dead meant Megumi likely killed him, thanks to Sukuna.)
According to the person whose Twt I read, they felt that Megumi’s laughing reaction was due to Gojo’s uncharacteristic consideration for him.
In other words, he was relaying it after he died to Megumi as a way to say: You got this cuz I’m dead. “And if you think your father is out there somewhere, he isn’t. It was me who killed him. Soz!” So don’t feel guilty.
Hm. Well, this was kind of echoed in at least another tweet and there were a few who made it out as if this was a fitting interpretation.
I also gathered from my last post on this subject, that Megumi was chuckling out of fondness, like “Geez, that’s so typical of you, sensei.”
But I do personally think it’s important to underline the fact that Gojo has always put in the effort to understand people even if he struggled to show it, or showed it clumsily. (Just like, “have you had too much somen?” - as said to Geto, back in the day.) So maybe it seemed uncharacteristic to Megumi, but I hope as a reader, we understand that Gojo had his own ways of being kind.
After all who can blame him if he didn’t quite fully understand what it meant to have blood family, being separated from his own? Born as an anomaly - a mutant amongst mutants. Who felt like others (flowers) couldn’t never comprehend a creature — and who could, unless they were bestowed with some monstrous skill themselves? (Like Geto, and Gojo had hoped, Sukuna... but the latter clung onto his stubborn self-protective belief of not needing “love” (compassion) until the very end, choosing to die instead of taking Yuji’s hand - another post on this another time).
And Gojo, after having been told last words from Toji and Geto about the importance of family, he may have gathered that it was better for Nobara and Megumi to know, than to have it concealed from them. Hence, the letters.
Know your family. Then decide who your family really is.
My own thoughts about the theory are as such: Gojo may have really wanted to tell Megumi that it was he who killed his father, because this was the only person he killed without a reason. (…that we know of: Gojo was canonically shown to have only killed two humans - Toji & Geto).
After Geto left, the parting message was: “don’t kill anyone other than me” - in other words, don’t do what I did, because that will make you lonely. If you need to kill, kill if there is a clear purpose or meaning in it.
This was his last lesson delivered to Gojo. We know his parting phrase was imbued with meaning due to everything we saw in HI and the draft words that Gege released from chapter (78) - important enough to make it to the exhibition and Gojo’s JUMP GIGA Character Book.
Geto played a significant role in him smartening up, how to connect with others, how to empathise with people, to think about what his responsibilities were as someone with strength.
So Gojo telling Megumi this was almost as if to say: you can stop wondering about him now; you weren’t left behind. I killed your father. You don’t have to feel responsible for it because there was meaning in it too.
In words Gojo might use: I killed him, you killed me. We’re even!
I guess it’s not only because Megumi couldn’t help it being Sukuna’s vessel. But also that he avenged his father’s death. All of Megumi’s thoughts relating to his father and Tsumiki as above: Retribution, karma, discipline… fairness and Megumi deserved happiness too.
And he chose to live again, starting by living for Yuji. A new purpose… he didn’t want Yuji to be lonely.
A loneliness I think he knew all too well.
He can add on more family after that. Nobara. Etc.
That’s it I guess. Thoughts?
