Anyone else coming back here after TikTok was banned?

little baby

read somewhere "jujutsu kaisen is just a story of people desperately trying to make the world a better place for their loved ones and failing miserably" and oh boy do i fucking agree with this

One thing about SatoSugu that I just can't recover from is that, in his moment of doubt, Gojo asked Geto for help ("Should we just kill them all?"), and Geto said exactly what Gojo needed to hear. But when Geto was facing his own doubts, he couldn’t ask for help. Not only Gojo was away a lot, but Geto probably felt like he couldn’t, even when he was around. Geto was always the one being compassionate and righteous, so it must have been agonizing to feel himself falter. And people who always help others can have such a hard time asking for help themselves. At first, maybe he even thought he was protecting Gojo by keeping to himself. He probably didn’t want to be a burden when Gojo was busy becoming the strongest. In the end, Gojo didn’t get an actual chance to help him (”The only ones I can save are those who are ready to be saved by another”) The aloneness of Geto or the guilt Gojo must have felt. I don't know which hurts more.

i feel like this episode really drove home just how alone young gojo and geto were. it's been a running theme in the series for a while that sorcerers are often left to fend for themselves from pretty early on in their careers, and miwa even mentions at one point that people tend to keep others at a distance just because of how dangerous their work is and it's not worth grieving someone every other day. but even in a school setting, it's so obvious that the teachers and other adults solely exist to deliver instruction and delegate missions - no advice, no emotional support, no real guidance despite how draining their lifestyle can be and how young the students are. gojo, geto, riko, and kuroi show up at jujutsu high after 3 days of constantly being on guard and no one is waiting for them. during the mission there was no sign of yaga or anyone else checking in on how they were doing or if they needed any extra support (sending 2 of their underclassmen does not count). and i know to a certain extent the hands off approach is because they trust in gojo and geto's abilities but the amount of responsibility they were burdening literal children with is kind of insane. minor spoilers but geto's character development from here on out should not come as a surprise to anyone. especially with future scenes that we will be seeing animated (such as a certain one in the morgue), i hope this season will make it clear that adult gojo being protective of his students and willing to defy the higher ups is more than him just being cocky and "the strongest." jujutsu society and the system as a whole consistently failed him and his friends. he became the strongest because he had to be.
