More Evidence For Gojokuna!

More evidence for Gojokuna!

We get these 2 character pages at the same time.

They haven't had any text for a while now, beginning with Uraume's blank page.

I was thinking about how happy Sukuna is that Mahoraga can see his technique when I noticed... The marks on his face in this panel look like an extra eye. As if he has six eyes.

What if Gojo becomes Sukuna's vessel?

Gojo and Sukuna have this hypervigilant need to be the strongest they possibly can (even when no one is close to their level).

Gojo told Geto that he felt sorry for Sukuna. That he knows how isolated it feels.

Idk there's so many posts about their similarities, how they're 2 sides of the same coin, and I think it would be neat.

Though I do wish Sukuna could have his own body, if it isn't possible to possess a cursed corpse, this is... Another possibility I'd like to explore.

Gojo invites Sukuna in.

Sukuna gets to be seen by someone who can understand him, without exploiting that vulnerability.

This might be a reach but I'm trying to notice more things, right

Gojo showing up to the station in Shibuya, and getting dumped by Geto - there's a black dog in the background of each. (like a sign he's about to revisit that time, meet 'Geto').

Before I only noticed the black dog café sign, and thought it was foreshadowing Gojo meeting Megumi. Here, I think the black dog (that's basically a silhouette, a shadow) represents Megumi's shikigami.

In the station, there's an 8 over the black dog (the one that survived, btw) and 8 looks like an infinity symbol. It could also be in reference to Mahoraga, or specifically the halo thing over its head.

The next panel:

If I really want to reach, I'd say those 4 marks could represent Sukuna's eyes.

Sukuna going after Yuuji this chapter especially reminds me of that video where

Someone had adopted a bird who was abused in his previous home, so the dude's crushing the cage they had there under his feet while the bird curses and cheers him on.

I'm not saying that Yuuji deserves to die, but that Sukuna doesn't respect him as a sorcerer because Yuuji is first and foremost a cage to Sukuna, and I'm not sure if he'd be able to see past that.

Also bc of the way that Yuuji only tried to find humanity in Sukuna in ch. 265, briefly, but immediately ignored sukuna and called him annoying and only tried to communicate with him to demand help, all while sympathizing with school shooters (like the time he called Sukuna out to save Junpei). Bro has so much to say to Sukuna but it doesn't land bc he never listened enough to know anything about him.

Clearing out my drafts - thoughts on Todo Aoi

We talk a lot about Sukuna and Gojo's love language being through violence - they can only find connection with sorcerers on their level. [link that]

But,,, Todo seems to be the same way.

Unless you answer his riddle and pass the test, then maybe he won't beat you up.

Todo would have learned this from Yuki (along with judging people by their type, of course).

The scar on his face is from her intense training.

Yuki may have been his first encounter with someone who could also see curses, but I don't know. His childhood memory focused more on beating up boring people and being bored with that until she came along.

When Yuuji was proving to match his energy, then Todo kept getting the same premonition about him (I also believe Yuki and Todo to be half-siblings, Kenjaku as their father unbeknownst to any of them, but I won't insist that it's canon... More like a crack theory, but it's real to me).

Todo seems to take Gojo's path - teaching others to raise them up to his level. I guess you might say the same thing about Yuki. And Yuki might have learned that to be strong is the only way to be your own person, since she was a star plasma vessel who avoided being erased (as Yaga describes it) by merging with Tengen. She continued to go off the rails, not taking missions (as one of only three, or later two, special grade sorcerers) and I feel like Todo really took after her. Kicking out the door to walk away from Gakuganji's plot so he can watch live TV - and no one dares to stop him.

Honestly though, I got the same vibe from Sukuna - he was bonding with Megumi, telling him to put more curse behind it, making sense of his fighting style and shikigami technique... It felt like Sukuna was making a friend or becomig a teacher while Todo was out to kill him.

Todo just cried about how Megumi was boring for not having a superficial type, and didn't bother to teach (iirc, he only gave Yuuji advice on jujutsu for having the same taste in women, before that he was just brutal).

Another thing Todo inherited from Yuki is the way they show up, right after something terrible happens that they could have prevented. Maybe they're too deep in the habit of living on their own schedules, by their own whim. It seems like the feeling of guilt or responsibility never crosses their minds, while characters like Yuuji, Megumi, Choso feel it for things that weren't their fault, they couldn't have known better or have a better choice available.

Has gege ever told us what happens if Geto turns a curse into an orb, but doesn't swallow it?

I can only assume that it's a temporary state. If that were enough to exorcised or indefinitely contain the curse, then he wouldn't have absorbed so many.

Lmao the answer came to me in a dream (like when I read the whole manga in a week and my dreams were bright white manga panels that I had to READ and they included missing scenes that were added to the anime) bc now my jjk analyzing continues subconsciously....

I was asking what if a curse, like Mahito, could eat one of them?

Like... Maybe they are sealed or can be sealed. Maybe some can act as talismans, protective.

But generally I don't know (maybe no one has the answer, the technique is rare and not passed down in a clan that keeps records) if they stay like that forever.

It might attract curses that would eat it to become stronger.

For now I assume they wouldn't have taken that risk. (but imagine like a shelf full of cursed crystal balls. It would look so cool. Ugh)

How I feel about JJK characters

× Gojo - I could fix him

× Geto - he could fix me

× Sukuna - he would understand me

× Uraume - also relatable

× Choso - i used to want him but then I realized that I am him and now I just feel weird

× Hanami - was totally redeemable, and likely felt so awful about humans bc of their exposure to Mahito as a curse born of humans, gave us a bad reputation. Hanami didn't even align ethically with the curses - and might have been in that group to prevent Jogo from burning down the forests. (I have to read the light novels still)
