A weapon, that's all he ever was.

I knew I got Gege, I got how a character like Gojo should be written.

I knew if he ever come back he has to abandon his humanity not his power.

I said jujutsu society has no use for a weakened Gojo and I was right. All they need was his power, in life or death, it's beautiful tragic

There is a beautiful tragedy in Gojo unable to use RCT on anyone else but himself

He is a weapon, weapons are made to destroy, not to save

Even Sakuna could heal people using RCT, but not him, and therein lies his entire character, an impotent god.

I just realized, he lost one of his arms so the boy can't even communicate effectively in sign language anymore post Shibuya 😱

Inumaki not using sign language is crazy to me

Anyway, I'll fix that in my fic

"Gojo will come back by sacrificing his power"

Bitch how about him abandoning his humanity to come back, what then?

Him finally become the true Eldritch horror that the Six Eyes could be

Geto and Nanami blamed him for not changing the world, watch him doing it now city by city.

The whole time, he's the one holding the monster back and now that part of him is dead because it was weak. Being human, caring for others only back fired on him and made things worse.

It's time to let the ID out.

[possitivelypricklycactus]

I was firmly in the " Gojo is definitely dead" camp but the other side is starting to sway me. They have so many compelling theories

[possitivelypricklycactus]

Ok, but he mentioned his father and I'm like oh fuck, because how am I going to work this into my plot cos I made Gojopapa a literal sperm donor.

Yes, he did visit his father and wondered what his life would be like if he wasn't a Gojo but that was it.

Well at least he didn't mention his mother cos she's absolutely dead in my fic.

Also the whole getting satisfaction out of being a soccerer, that coincides being a Gojo in my book as well. Yes they run the risk of dying young, but for them that's the beauty of it all. Risking everything for your craft.

Like freehand mountain climbing, it's them against nature in itself, if they win then it's good, if they die then at least they have fun before dying

Edited: fuck, I was hopping it was a mistranslation but he did really mentioned his father, wtf.

Also, he's really dead, I found more detailed translation thread and basically Gojo himself was shocked at the turn of event, he went through the whole 5 stages and everything.

Gojo's wretchedness of isolation line hits really hard because he says who else can understand loneliness more than me

It's poetic. But he's really dead.

I can sort of deal with that but not when Ive already written half a chapter of him visiting his father and step siblings in California already.

Now it's going to be au, instead of canon divergence.

I refuse to believe Gege did not have a young Yu Aoi in mind when creating Shoko, just look at her!!!

Doing fan casting of the JJK cast right now in my head.

[possitivelypricklycactus]

Im delulu but seriously this fight is going exactly where my hc was going in my fic.

Gojo just destroyed the tokyo gov building in full broadcasting view. It's deeply symbolic fullstop.

the normie society are being made aware of the new threat. Where do we go from here? Deep structural changes should involve everybody not just jujutsu society by itself because curses will continue to be born and might even be stronger and more numerous now that people are more fearful and anxious of this previously unknown power.

And humanity xenophobic tendency is to destroy whatever they see as different to them. Will there be all out war between the normies and soccerers? Soccerers got power but they can never win against numbers, also this is why Geto's plan is just a pipe dream of a broken, depressed teenager boy btw. Will soccerers be hunted down? Will the soccerers society be united enough to put on a show of force and intimidation so they won't be destroyed the minute the governments of the world got time to put a plan together?

Gojo thought he had time to implement his plan, to foster allies and build a new power structure strong enough to change things slowly without too much disruption but with this new turn of event he might have to resort to drastic actions to hold things together.

Because if he dies then what? His teenager students will have to face Kenjaku, and the fallout with normal society by themselves and as the fight had demonstrated, the gap in power between Gojo, Sukuna vs the others is immense.

And this is where we enter the dark time line where Gojo becomes a villain.

At least in my fic anyway. I don't know what Gege is going to do but I felt like I have such affinity with them cos the whole brain damaged thing? My hc when it comes to the Gojo clan. They all went mad and died young, it's the price of the limitless power. Their brains just develop CTE over time because of the repeated traumas they are causing whenever they use infinity or teleportation.

[possitivelypricklycactus]

I want to plot but my brain just goes off on endless tangents about Gojo clan and their shenanigans. They are deeply unserious people in my fic, I mean look at Satoru and imagine the whole clan full of people like him who just go around being a plague on society.

Also it's actually hilarious because I'm making the Gojo clan be like we must plan and scheme to take our right full place at the top of the world and Gojo Satoru is like you underestimate how little I care about your plan, and just goes off on his merry way.

Also none of them can stick to their plan because they all have ADHD and refuse to go on medication because they think it'll make them boring so they just come up with brilliant plans and then NOTHING

And then there is this mad science wing of their clan, and MamaGojo was like, yo this shit is fucked up, then 30 years latter Gojo was like, my mama was right, you guys are sick, I should blow up your lab, and the guys were like all done for the advancement of science sir, we just want to know if it's possible.

It was Utahime who set Gojo on his lip balm addiction path. Teen Uta felt sorry for this pathetic orphan boy who showed up looking unkempt with wild hair & chapped lips, so she gave him a tube of Lucas's Paw Paw out of her purse.

She will regret this kindness because even when they are adults, Gojo absolutely refuses to buy his own lip balm and just riffles through her purse whenever they meet to steal whatever she has on hand, even her expensive Dior lip oil.

Imagine Gojo laughing while skipping away with his ill gotten gain like this

[possitivelypricklycactus]

those are his 1000$ Margiela tabi boots, thank you very much, the man is into fashion, have you seen his customed uniform, high waist baggy pants and everything?

anyone know wtf suguru is wearing on his god damn feet what are these god damn things called help ???

[possitivelypricklycactus]

I just realized if Gojo dies then Shoko will be the only left alive

Omg, Gege you can't do that to her

五夏　The strongest…

I was going to make Gojo-mama 175 cm tall, which in my mind is quite impressive already since my fave Japanese actress Yuki Amami which I'll be modeling Gojo-mama after is only 171cm.

then I found out Yuki Tsukumo's height is apparently a massive 188 cm which kinda made me laugh a bit cos Gege Akutami literally uses size to denote power.

So now Gojo-mama has to be taller, I'm thinking 180 cm, head of her clan, a tall dark haired intimidating woman who stared down those sexist Kamo and Zen'in clanheads in meetings.

Strength is everything in the Gojo clan evidently because they made goofy-ass-Satoru head of the clan, Gojomama was the strongest of her time and she just beat down everyone who opposed so yeah, a woman being head of clan is not an ooc imo.

Dark haired because I've decided the Six Eyes is a rare recessive genetic mutation, a freak of nature so to speak, so Satoru Gojo's albinism is just an indicator of his genetic abnormalities. Also, people with albinism have higher risk of developing vision issues, hence the Six Eyes. The rest of the Gojo's should look like like normal people.

Gojo-mama will be named Setsuna after Sailor Pluto whose power is also space time manipulations and teleportation.

Also I know the fandom like to think of Gojo as being emotionally neglected but look at him at a teenager, so affectionate and clingy and expressive. That child was showered with love and spoiled rotten.

[possitivelypricklycactus]

If dear old Kenny hadn't thrown a spanner in the works, Gojo's reform plan would have been half way there already. Between him and Utahime, they had the future triumvirate of Jujutsu society in their influence. Head of Gojo clan, the future head of the Zen'in Megumi and the heir apparent of the Kamo clan Noritoshi.

As long as he can convince Utahime to be on his side, because in her character design she is the representation of the broader, older, more traditional side of the society. Her miko clothes for religion, her wanting to bring him to order but unable to do so, Gojo calling her weak to her face, her scar being very prominent on her face because their society's flaw is apparent, having her support literally made him stronger etc...

Urgh, inside of me there are two wolves, one wants to write a calculating, only history can judge me mastermind tyrant Gojo, the other wants to write an enlightened, born to be weapon Sisyphius Gojo who knows things are meaningless and yet must find happiness in pushing the rock up the hill.

On the topic of mastermind Gojo, I think his constant talk of killing the higher up implanted the seed of possibility into his young students' minds so when the time came, Maki had no problem wipping out the Zen'in, and Yuta actually did the task of killing the councils whether on Gojo's direct order or his own initiative, we don't actually know yet.

[possitivelypricklycactus]

I just got into the JJK fandom and it's hilarious how Gojo is like the verse's town bicycle, being shipped with everyone.

Anyway, I'm going to attempt fanfiction again.

Only because nobody is writing what I want to read
