#gojo analysis

[justrustandstardust]

the op of jjk season 2 is rife with symbolism. there's one particular motif, however, that foreshadows the trajectory (and tragedy) of gojo and geto's love story.

almost immediately, we see geto running through the rain. the stylistic choice to portray him holding his bag over his head is deliberate, because it emphasizes what he conspicuously doesn’t have but so clearly needs: an umbrella.

gojo, on the other hand, is not operating with the same sense of urgency, seen through him taking his time looking at a cat. gojo has what geto needs, but he's not rushing. their behaviour is incongruous; geto is hurrying to get out of the rain, and gojo remains still, because he’s absolutely not hurrying at all.

the sense of urgency is compounding, seen through geto bouncing his leg. he’s waiting impatiently in the rain, and he's not using his bag to cover up his head anymore. geto knows gojo is coming; that's why he's impatient— because he's waiting for someone who has what he needs that hasn’t shown up yet.

geto needs him, yet gojo doesn’t pick up the pace. this is despite the fact that he needs to because it’s raining and geto doesn’t have an umbrella. we, as the audience, feel geto's impatience and we're urging gojo on, yet he still doesn't go any faster.

sharing an umbrella is an established trope in japan. it’s widely recognized and practiced enough to have its own designated terminology.

gojo is bringing an umbrella for them to share. that's why it’s repeatedly reinforced to the audience that geto doesn't have one. that’s also why the shots cut between them; it highlights what gojo has that geto doesn’t, and in doing so, ties the narrative together through the umbrella.

by the time gojo finally shows up, the sun has come out. gojo lowers the umbrella and smiles sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck. contrarily, geto almost seems resigned, like he’s accepted the fact that gojo took too long. they can’t share the umbrella anymore because they missed their chance to use it.

we can see that geto is saying something to gojo when he finally shows up with the umbrella. you know what i would bet actual money it probably was?

“you’re late, satoru.”

How Gojo would realistically confess

List of headcanons

A direct, verbal confession from Gojo Satoru is highly unlikely, based on his character. He's not the type to say "I love you" out loud, at least not in a straightforward, romantic way. ACTIONS not WORDS.

He's a man of action, not words: Gojo expresses his care and love through protection and providing. He saves Yuji, trains his students, and seeks to create a better world for them. He never truly let's himself be emotional with them, always a facade of strength and head pats if things get tense (e.g. Jogo vs Gojo with Yuji in the Domain Expansion). He later finally became vulnerable and said "Hasn't the world had enough of Gojo?" which is why Yuji asked him "Aren't you saying things out of character?" because he's not used to it. Even if the reader has known Gojo from the beginning BEFORE Geto's departure, I think the shift is still too extreme for confessions of I love you's. Heck, even Shoko who was part of the group felt Gojo's extreme distance. Like seriously.

He shows his affection by ensuring their safety and future, not by declaring his feelings. For Gojo, love is about taking on the world's burdens so that the people he cares about don't have to.

Gojo is incredibly powerful but emotionally stunted. The loss of Geto left a void he never truly filled. He was left at the age of 18 and decided not to mature too much, because he wanted to hold on to the past, that 'Blue Summer' he thinks back at. As a character, he's used to being "the strongest" and the one who handles everything. This mindset makes him bad at verbalizing his inner feelings. He doesn't know how to ask for help or admit his vulnerabilities, and a direct confession would feel like a form of vulnerability he's not equipped to handle.

A core theme of Gojo's character is his profound loneliness. He's so far above everyone else in terms of power that he feels no one can truly understand him, except for Geto. I think if the reader was a Special Grade, it might help a bit, but in the end Gojo is truly the absolute strongest. This isolation prevents him from forming deep, intimate emotional bonds. Even with a crush, he might feel that they can't truly grasp the reality of his existence, and a confession would be a pointless gesture.

Gojo's teasing, playful, and even arrogant demeanor is a defense mechanism. It's how he keeps people at a distance while still showing he cares. A confession would require him to drop this mask, and it's a step he's not likely to take. He didn't even drop the mask with Shoko, who was his best friend and distanced himself from Nanami. He was seen as quite tactless with Ijichi, but he had always been quite upfront and rude to be honest so.

His confession would be a subtle, indirect act that speaks volumes. It would happen after Geto's betrayal, when he has a better understanding of what it means to lose someone. I think BEFORE Geto left, he would say something like, "Miss me? The mission was a piece of cake, of course." He would immediately monopolize their time. He wouldn't just say hi; he'd likely throw an arm around them and pull them away from whatever they're doing, suggesting they go get food or hang out, all while talking animatedly about the mission. He would use his physical affection as a form of playful teasing. He might ruffle their hair, lean on their shoulder, or give them a noogie, all while joking about how they must have been counting the minutes until he got back. It's fun and lighthearted, a way of expressing his happiness to see them.

A confession might instead be a promise.

Instead of saying "I love you," he'd say something like, "I won't let anything happen to you. I swear it." This isn't just a promise of a sorcerer to a friend; it's a deeply personal vow from a man who has failed to protect someone he loved before. It's a way to show true unguarded vulnerability.

He might take their hand, lower his blindfold, and just look at them with his Six Eyes. In that moment, he wouldn't be the strongest sorcerer, but just Satoru Gojo. This simple act of trust—exposing his greatest source of power and vulnerability to them—would be his way of saying, "I trust you with all of me."

Perhaps for some angst or because of his relentless drive to handle all missions on his own, he would let his guard down. After a difficult mission, he might hold them close, perhaps burying his face in their hair, and whisper something that isn't a confession but feels like one: "Stay with me." It's a plea for their presence, a desperate attempt to anchor himself to something real and enduring in his lonely world.

Gojo would never deliver a classic "I love you" because his character arc isn't built for that. His love is too raw, too deeply tied to his trauma and his duties. It’s a silent, protective love that is felt in the space between his actions and his words.

manga panels that make me love satoru gojo more (spoilers)

i love my kind hearted, generous, admirable, inspiring, intelligent, gorgeous, misunderstood, self-sacrificing king. the people who analyze his character yall deserve ur flowers! 💐💐

[thetorturedgojodepartment]

Something that I find attractive about Gojo, if not THE most attractive thing, is that he is a very competent and intelligent man.

What I don’t like (and it’s starting to die down which I love) (also this is just my opinion!!) is the fact that people sometimes portray him as a genuine idiot or like a little boy. I understand when he’s a teenager, but even then, he was and IS really smart and so so so so responsible. Yes he is goofy and funny and silly, but you can be all those things AND be serious and responsible. This part isn’t really my opinion, he literally is written to be that way. This manga panel below literally shows it:

I couldn’t find the whole thing lol, but right after this his voice gets serious and he gives and meeaaannnn mog gargantuas side eye LMAO. Like he KNOWS that this situation is serious and he is obviously being goofy and saying “all good!” so people can stay calm.

I will also put myself on the spot here, I love to joke around and keep things light and playful, but deep down I’m pretty serious and I take things seriously, even if I tell a joke or two. I just never want people to worry and I’m aware how that can come across as me maybe not caring or not taking the situation seriously, as seen with Gojos students and peers. I like to analyse a character’s personality based on when they are alone and whenever Gojo is alone or has no eyes on him, we the readers/viewers get a glimpse at the Gojo underneath.

If he was truly dumb and an idiot and unserious, he would not be the strongest.

People obviously have said what I said before but I lowkey wanted an excuse to post a lil mini analysis LOL.

[akuji05]

Thinking about the Blue-Red symbolism surrounding SatoSugu

I've been thinking about this shot for a while. At first it didn't make sense to me, why Gojo was in the red and Geto was in the blue, I thought it should've been the opposite but after seeing some others talk about it, I think it makes a lot of sense.

Because of Gojo's powers and how it directly relates into this. At the near end of Hidden Inventory, Gojo and Geto are spending less time together, Gojo is going out on missions alone, he is training and refining his techniques multiple times over and is leaving little to no room for friends. He's essentially isolating himself from others to be able to become strong enough to go on as many missions as possible. He's pushing people away, like how his ability Red repels. Thus, Gojo is in red, like his ability, pushing away those around him.

Geto on the other hand is in the blue, by the near end of Hidden Inventory, he is depressed and consistently consuming curses. I think Gege was great at showing his depression, Geto’s got heavy eye bags, like he either can’t sleep or sleeps too much. He hunches over, resting on his knees like sitting up straight is just too much work. When someone talks to him, he blinks slowly and takes a beat too long to respond, like even that takes more energy than he has. And like Gojo said, he was losing weight, meaning he was eating less. Like Gojo's ability blue, which attracts, he is absorbing curses, wallowing in his negative thoughts and feelings to the point he developed a hatred for most of humanity. He's pulling in all the negativity into himself just as how blue attracts.

And it also fits in nicely with the openings of season 2. Ao no Sumika (Where Our Blue is) is imo showing that they were together and happy. Where Our Blue is, in this case would also translate to Where Our Attraction is because Gojo's blue is pulling and attracting. The title to me means "Where we're together" for them. The rest of the opening is mostly blue as well, emphasizing it further. The second opening of season 2, is mostly red, and akin to reversal red presents a push. Gojo and Geto are no longer united anymore, they stand against each other.

Also these two frames put that nicely.

My Rant About Gojo & Sanji Being Criminally Mischaracterized

So I’ve been getting back into JJK recently, and it’s safe to say Gojo is definitely one of my favorite characters again. And no, it’s not just because he’s hot (though… bonus). It’s because he reminds me so much of my all‑time favorite character ever—Sanji. If you’ve been following me for more than two minutes, you already know this.

Both of them are unbelievably kind, selfless, emotionally layered characters who constantly get reduced to “haha goofy pretty man.” Like… god forbid a man has a personality.

People love to say:

“There’s nothing to like about Gojo besides his looks.”

Oh really? You mean:

• The same Gojo who saves people constantly and doesn’t even get a thank you.

• The same Gojo who kept Toji’s dying wish and became Megumi’s guardian—at seventeen. That’s a level of maturity most grown adults don’t have.

• The same Gojo who feeds his students all the time even though that’s not his job.

• The same Gojo who saved Yuta and literally gave him a future.

• The same Gojo who hid Sukuna’s finger to protect Yuji.

• The same Gojo who treats his students like his own kids and wants them to grow up in a better world than he did.

• The same Gojo who had to kill his best friend with his own hands because it was the only way to protect everyone else.

• The same Gojo who never even got a childhood because he was raised as a weapon, isolated from his parents, and forced into a role he never asked for.

But sure. “He’s just goofy.”

People really act like his silly attitude is his whole personality when it’s literally just a layer. Gojo knows exactly when to be serious. He takes situations seriously even when they have nothing to do with him like the executions targeting Yuta and Yuji. He’s always thinking ahead, always carrying the weight of being “the strongest,” and he hides how heavy that burden is because he doesn’t want anyone else to worry. Beneath the jokes, he’s focused, calculating, and ready to act the second it matters.

Now let’s talk about Sanji, because the parallels are insane.

People say:

“It’s his job to feed people.”

No. It’s not his job to feed villains. Kindness is a choice. Nobody else at Baratie had that policy—only him. He physically cannot stand to see someone starve, even if they’re an enemy.

“So what if he protected his family?”

His “family” abused him, locked him in a cell, beat him, treated him like trash—and he STILL chose to go back and save them. Again: kindness is a choice and that takes a lot of maturity. His whole thing was he didn’t want to become like them and instead be kind like the way his real father Zeff raised him to be. He literally asked Zoro to kill him in Wano because he was so scared of becoming like them, that alone is selfless in its nature.

“Luffy can just find another cook.”

Oh, so we’re just ignoring the entire point of Whole Cake Island then.

Luffy literally starved himself waiting for Sanji. He refused food from anyone else because “you’re the cook on my ship, and I won’t eat anything until you come back.” That wasn’t dramatics. That was Luffy making it clear that Sanji isn’t replaceable. He’s family.

And when Sanji tried to push him away, Luffy yelled back “Without you, I can’t become King of the Pirates.”

He has never said that to any other crew member. Yes, he needs all of them—but that specific line, that level of emotional honesty, was reserved for Sanji. Because Sanji is the one who keeps the crew alive. He’s the one who feeds them, protects them, and holds them together in ways nobody else can.

And let’s talk about the “Sanji kicked him” thing. Sanji did nothing wrong. He was forced into an impossible situation, cornered on every side, and the only way to protect the crew was to hurt Luffy. And even then, he was crying. He felt so guilty and ashamed that he couldn’t even look Luffy in the eye afterward, even though he had no choice.

When Luffy asked, “Why won’t you come back?” what was Sanji’s first reason?

“I can’t come back because you came all the way to save me and I hurt you. That alone doesn’t give me the right to return.”

He genuinely believed he didn’t deserve forgiveness for something he was forced to do. Meanwhile Luffy wasn’t even mad at him. Not for a second.

Sanji’s guilt, his loyalty, his selflessness—none of that is replaceable. And Luffy knows that better than anyone.

“He only cares about women.”

Oh, you mean:

• The Same Sanji who’s introduction was him feeding a hungry man (gin or whatever his name was).

• The same Sanji who saved a random headless man (Kin’emon) because he wanted to help him find his son.

• The same Sanji who was willing to die in Thriller Bark to protect Luffy and Zoro.

• The same Sanji who tried to sacrifice himself to Kuma in Sabaody to protect Zoro and Usopp.

• The same Sanji who loses his mind anytime someone hurts Usopp.

• The same Sanji who constantly worries about making Zeff proud and built his entire moral code around the man who saved his life.

• The same Sanji who gave up his dream and his freedom for Luffy’s and Zeff’s sake. 

And that’s not even half the list.

Sanji is one of the most beautifully written characters in One Piece nobody matches his kindness, his loyalty, or the emotional depth he brings to the story. His whole character teaches us how compassion is strength.

Which is exactly why I love Gojo so much. He reminds me of Sanji in all the best ways: the kindness, the selflessness, the burden they carry alone, the way they hide their pain behind humor, the way people underestimate them because they’re pretty and silly on the surface.

Gojo is the GOAT. Sanji is the GOAT. And people need to stop downplaying everything they’ve done and everything they’ve survived.

Anyway, I just needed to rant.

[cinnatorus]

i dont necessarily believe gojo is a good example of a morally grey character bc he doesn’t exactly have a wavering moral compass. he has unorthodox methods of approach in jujutsu but they all consistently align with the same (largely selfless) goals he’s held throughout most of jjk… tho to be completely honest i think everyone’s definition (including my own) of a morally grey character is different, so that might be why it’s such a big debate.

to me, a morally grey character has to frequently alter between good motives and bad ones, and gojo’s motives are (i would say) consistently good throughout the entire series despite how extreme he can be with it. he’s been shown to take drastic measures with the sole purpose of reform and the betterment of jujutsu society, and sure, his actions aren’t 100% selfless all of the time but i do think they happen to lean more towards that than anything else because based on this convo alone, he ultimately doesn’t really care if a better world is one he gets to be part of.

then again, if your idea of being morally grey is occasionally doing bad stuff for good reasons, then yeah, he’s definitely morally grey. if this is the case, u could also argue most of the jjk cast are morally grey as well, which i suppose aligns with the grim nature of jjk as a whole. but imo it makes more sense for his moral alignment to be defined by his motives and not his actions, bc otherwise it’d be easy to call someone like megumi or yuuta morally grey too, which isn’t debated nearly as often. though i also think the circumstances they all find themselves in are way too complex to strictly define by a particular set of moral alignments anyway, so it’s hard for me to say anything about this without that kind of nuance involved.

i was gonna add this next point in the tags but decided to add it to the post as well bc it’s still relevant and i wanted to expand further on it; but i also think the whole thing with nanami telling him he was weird about jujutsu could be used in defense of him being morally grey too which i completely understand as well. i think gojo’s reaction to it also indicates that he was not fully expecting people to actually perceive his actions in that manner, which could either imply some sort of misunderstanding on nanami’s part, or denial on gojo’s

because it’s like i said, he’s not 100% selfless. he’s had selfish tendencies and he definitely gets a thrill out of it when he’s not holding back his strength, but that isn’t his biggest motivator behind most of what he’s done, even if it seems like it is. he wasn’t going all feral in shibuya or shinjuku mostly because he found it fun. frankly, if that were the case, i think he would’ve been much worse about it 😭 but having selfish tendencies is also such an intrinsically human trait to have.. like yeah, i do actually think he’s allowed to be a little selfish sometimes after everything jujutsu society has asked of him for his entire life. it’s just that it’s a trait that keeps being equated with having a grey moral alignment when To Me i don’t think it’s that simple.

another thing i like to consider is the way gojo’s character was described in conjunction with sukuna’s during the shinjuku showdown arc, because they’re both shown to have a lot in common despite being on opposing sides. imo that juxtaposition of them both being portrayed as the strongest sorcerers of their time, both revered or feared in some form yet both vastly different in motivations, would become a bit of a moot point if his (gojo’s) morality wavered as much as you’d expect from someone who was truly morally grey.

the conversation about what love means to them both also isn’t necessarily aligned with their individual morality but i think it’s another good reason to view them both as equal in quantity and opposite in quality, which again, wouldn’t work as well as it does if gojo’s morality/motivations wavered. sukuna thinking love is worthless, and gojo thinking love is the most twisted curse of all, shows that gojo held love to a different degree of importance than sukuna did, even as they both acknowledged that love is something they experienced differently because of their solitude in strength/power (which ultimately had an adverse effect on their perception of love as a whole)

all that said, i obviously don’t think being morally grey is the worst thing ever, and there’s definitely some valid arguments in defense of him being such which i can’t disagree with. i’ll even be the first to admit that for a long time i regarded him as such too. im also not saying he’s this goody two-shoes character either bc that’d be a complete disservice; his sheer complexity is part of what makes him so widely adored. i just also happen to think that most of what he’s done throughout the series isn’t fully aligned with what a morally grey character is to Me.. but it’s fine that not everyone might agree cuz again, everyone’s idea of a morally grey character seems to be skewed, so it is what it is i guess.

Satoru Gojo character analysis (incomplete)

Happy late birthday, to the glorious blue eyed king.

I can’t stop thinking about how a kid will latch onto the praise and expectations of the adults around them. And that’s what Gojo did. From the moment he was born, he was told he would be great. To be great is to be different; As a kid, Gojo was treated as a gift, a rarity, a power— his innate talents overshadowed the fact that he was a person. As a kid, he didn’t catch onto the latter (that he is as human as anyone else), instead learning that he was special, incomparable, honored. His innate abilities coupled with how everybody saw him doomed Gojo to be shaped as a weapon. Can you blame Gojo for centering his personality around being the strongest? During the infamous fallout scene, Geto called Gojo out, playing on the concept of nature vs nurture, when he said, “Are you the strongest because you’re Satoru Gojo? Or are you Satoru Gojo because you’re the strongest?” Geto was essentially pointing out that the talents that Gojo was born with took on a huge defining role in who Gojo is as a person, which is to say, he’s powerful. And Gojo prides and defines himself on his strength. What did that leave room for? Certainly not human connection, introspection, or self expression— all things necessary to connect deeply with yourself, and others. Gojo was reduced to being strong, and only that. And when you’re strong, set apart from the rest, and praised for it, it’s not natural to think of yourself as the same as others. Being the strongest— such a position is inherently isolating. Because of his innate abilities, Gojo did not have much control over who he would become. (See: soft determinism definition for a philosophical explanation).

It’s important to note that Gege said that Gojo’s personality was his greatest strength. I believe he said this because it’s Gojo’s personality that lets him a) tap into his abilities that make him so strong in the first place, and b) handle the responsibility and isolation that comes with his position. In early life, Gojo was surrounded by an overbearing clan, without siblings, and without friends, and told that he was the chosen one who restored the balance of the world, as his mere existence caused curse users to retreat into the shadows— According to his own family and the Jujutsu Higher Ups, Gojo’s mission was to train, gain control over his abilities, and hone his skills. He did so, throwing himself into his training and mastering the tricky Six Eyes gift by reading old texts of his own will, training himself. Gojo was treated as a goal by his own family, and he never got a childhood or knew the warmth of a loving home. He never socialized with other humans. He didn’t get to run around and play. He didn’t ever see other children his age cry or smile. Rather, a huge responsibility was placed on him. Gojo never broke under the pressure. He was ambitious, and strong. He could train without having the normal human needs of socialization, acceptance, and love, fulfilled. He was conditioned to focus on being a weapon, capable and strong in battle, leaving no room for the autonomy of thinking and wishing for a life beyond sorcery. Who needs acceptance when you have already been defined, and you fulfill that role? What Gege said about Gojo’s personality being his greatest strength, it takes a certain kind of person to carry such responsibilities, and live isolated, without the need to break free from such mental, emotional, and physical confines. Gojo could do this, and thus, Gojo lived without human connection for most of his life (Geto and Gojo’s students being the sole exceptions), standing tall and strong— and alone. Another point: Gojo stated that he had trouble connecting to people. Everyone, to some degree, craves human connection, and needs it to thrive. In order to connect with others, we need vulnerability. So why could Gojo succeed even without his best friend in his life? His innate talent and intensive training had conditioned him against vulnerability in all senses— identity and strength wise. But this isn’t enough— most people would still break had they been in Gojo’s shoes. It’s Gojo’s personality that allows him to uphold himself, stay strong, and keep fighting for his mission, as we went over. It is as if an essential pathway going from the outside world to the heart, is blocked, shut off in Gojo. If you are to be the strongest, then you do not have the right to needing human connection to survive.

Gege stated that Gojo’s greatest weakness was also his personality. The very thing that allowed Gojo to become the strongest is what isolated him. That conditioning into being the strongest, along with his natural aloofness and insensitivity towards the emotions of others, created a roadblock in how Gojo connected with people. Gojo’s eyes were always trained on strength, creating a lens of “people are either strong, or weak.” The audience can see that when Gojo is 17 and arrogant, complaining about having to protect the weak. For Gojo, his entire world was jujutsu. While not heartless (we see him save regular people), Gojo had no idea how to talk to anybody, no idea how to care about anybody who wasn’t in a situation he was familiar with. As a teenager, Gojo is not the kindest soul (and this isn’t to fault him, as most teens aren’t the kindest person at that stage in life). Gojo makes callous comments that reflect his lack of sensitivity for others, such as asking Geto, “You think we’ll be blamed if the kid died from that?” (Gojo’s later behavior towards Ijichi is also telling, and it was stated that he does not realize how deeply he irks Utahime). At 17 years old, Gojo is simply doing the mission as the Higher Ups demand, without thinking much beyond that. He thinks of himself, how the mission affects him and him only. He even states that moral arguments are what people say to make themselves feel better. It’s clear that Gojo is not passionate and dedicated to their mission, not in the way Geto was (only for Geto to become disillusioned, see my Suguru Geto Character Analysis here). One could argue that Gojo’s weakness is that he isn’t innately empathetic, as he did not pay much attention to his or anyone else’s needs and feelings, which, while necessary for him to become the strongest solider, had also led to him living a life he didn’t choose, and without much ability for human connection. However, we do see moments in which Gojo does indeed connect with people through play (ie with Geto, Riko, Yuuji), and in these rare moments he may feel enough emotion to make decisions that go against the cold logic of Jujutsu Society, such as when he refuses to sleep, letting Riko have her last day of youth at the beach in Okinawa. Another key instance of this is when Gojo lets Geto walk away from KFC without killing him. (Before y’all attack me, please remember that 1) I am giving an evidence-based analysis, and 2) this isn’t to say that Gojo is a bad guy. Just because somebody is not deeply sensitive does not make them bad. Gojo is not a villain by any means. He does good things).

It wasn’t until a bit later on in life, after seeing his best friend defect, when Gojo gained another lens: that of protecting the youth from a corrupt system built on old traditions and child soldiers. Gojo’s new mission was one that his kid self, and all his peers, had needed. And that, that was the mission that Gojo dedicated himself to. —Adult Gojo’s way of caring for others was either through teaching them what he had learned himself (Jujutsu), or protecting/saving them in battle. He was never exposed to problems beyond his own, and he’s unfamiliar with the lives and feelings of “normal people.” Seeing strong and talented youth was something that made Gojo happy, as stated by Gege. Gege also stated that Gojo saved Megumi because Megumi was strong. Gojo’s craving for human connection does exist and come out— and we see it in the students he teaches. The anger that Gojo felt when Yuuji first died was potent, and real, as well. Where Gojo’s best friend dedicated himself to stopping “root” of curses out of trauma, a feeling of helplessness (the system was broken, and so was Geto at that point), and anger— Gojo dedicated himself to saving the youth by teaching them to become strong enough to save themselves by creating change that he couldn’t do by himself (without killing all the non sorcerers). Jujutsu Kaisen is a story that takes place during a time of war and change. Gojo, while ultimately a King with the power of a Queen piece, was still a pawn on the chessboard, seen and used as a weapon on the board of Jujutsu Society, in a war of sorcerers vs curses.

NOTE: This is an incomplete, disorganized analysis, and by no means a proper essay. I will rewrite it when I read JJK front to back and sit with the story for a bit. NTS: power and strength, and what it takes (self experience) + allows for, is not focused on nearly enough in this analysis

NOTE 2: I WELCOME discussion! Have something more to say? Disagree with a point I’ve made? Comment below, but please try to do so with the same or higher level of thought and consideration I’ve put into my post. I am not here to argue, rather, I’m here to chat and hear what others think and why, and hopefully learn a thing or two, so long as you’re not preaching while blatantly mischaracterizing or being hostile/rude/cruel, as such remarks will only get you the idiot hat for the day.
