#BINDING VOWS COME HERE YOU RUINED JJK

[longagoitwastuesday]

That one fic with the sunrises and the heartbreaking descriptions of the six eyes also gave me the six eyes being eaten and really truly the real JJK could never live up to that for me

SPOILERS FOR ANIME ONLY VIEWERS OF JJK

also here's probably one of my most controversial opinion yet of the ending lmao... spoiler but its about gojo

controversial opinion but i think that if gojo was revived it wouldve ruined the story and ending. like dont get me wrong it would be nice if he was alive (god knows how many fix it fanfics ive read of the occasion) but it just doesnt make sense. sure there's the binding vow and the thing of him losing all of his CT or the six eyes (or both) but it doesn't make sense. that's it for cheating death?

sure he's strong and thats a LOT of cursed energy but the result is the same. you are revived and dont have CT. if thats the case why dont other people do it? binding vows are based on the more restricted the vow or the more heavily the greater the outcome right?

no matter how much CT he has he's trading in his CT for another life without it. if he can do that then reasonable ANYONE would be able to do that as they would be facing the same conditions as him, strength be damned because from what ive seen while strength can help in making more powerful binding vows if the basis or the end goal of the vow is the same then ANYONE should be able to reasonable do it (or thats how i see it)

and even if he did come back, what then? i think some people dont understand that he was a weapon in the jjk world. hypothetically if he came back without cursed energy, what then? he might be able to see curses he might not. but most of the people he knew are dead. nanami, haibara, geto, yaga, etc. utahime hates him and shoko is too busy with work to do things with him (it's commonly known that she's irreplaceable in the jujutsu world).

sure he has his students but what can he do for them? theyre stronger than him and unlike maki he doesnt have a heavenly restriction to help him fight them or help them in missions or with curses.

theres no doubt in my mind that he has enough money from his previous missions to retire but what would he do? all he's known is the jujutsu world. thats what happens when youre a weapon. sure he could get a job (as he is pretty smart) but lets be honest... can you really see that?

then there's his whole arc of sacrificing himself to make a world where his students dont have to live like he did. live a life like he did. they dont have to be weapons anymore. he's going to fix it. and he did. if he just came back then it wasnt a sacrifice... well it would be but it wouldnt mean nearly as much. gojo gave almost his entire life to the jujutsu world and during the final years of his life he decided to throw that away and dedicate it to his students instead.

making sure they got to have a life he'll never have. because thats the kinda person he was. even if he never got to see them have it they still have it because of him and thats important. everything he did to help them make it to this point. bringing him back would cut all that out. its sorta like having your cake and eating it too, its weird right? too perfect, too soft. especially in a society where a BUNCH of the characters die. why does this one live?

dont get me wrong, im sad that hes dead but i wouldnt want him brought back. honestly i dont really like when characters are brought back (which is why i kinda dont like nobaras return seeing it closer, even though i love her character).
