JJK OLYMPICS OHHH YOURE A GENIUS

head spinning w sooooooo many athlete aus rn….. 

satoru honestly isn’t half as cocky as the media makes him out to be but he could be because you bring up world champion men’s freestyle swim times and it’s his name on the scoreboard ten times before someone else shows up. he’s faster than himself by fifteen seconds all around, he’s earned a bit of cockiness. mentioned in the last post that whenever he’s at a competition and he finishes a race, he looks at the camera and signs a little infinity sign and then blows a kiss to you. some bitter old coach always calls him out on it, and gets him fined for unsportsmanlike conduct, and he’s happy to pay the fees if it means getting a message home to you, but eventually you two come up with a new code; and at his next race, he places gold, turns to the camera, crosses his middle finger over his pointer finger and smiles. when he’s in his post-race interview, he makes sure to explain that he does it for you with the widest smile on his face.

megumi nepotism baby but not in the same sport. toji was a multi gold medalist back in his heyday for shooting, so it’s not really a surprise to anybody that megumi has scary good aim, but he takes to archery instead of shooting. actually the idea of megumi being an emo little kid and throwing rocks at a tree when his dad pissed him off his hilarious, and even funnier is toji watching him, slightly amused and a little scared because megumi is maybe six and hitting the exact same spot every single time. he grows to be very blase about it—it’s more of a release/hobby for him that he happens to be really good at, and well, now good enough to earn a few olympic medals. megumi is not a fan of having his dad ruffle his hair on international television after he’s won, but he supposes it can’t be helped.

i don’t know where to put yuuta…. tennis…. tempting….. him in his little white shorts…. little grunts after he serves…. cries….. a complete 180 in his personality when he’s playing vs doing anything else. so charming and sweet and kinda shy when he’s being interviewed, and the second he steps on the court his eyes are so cold it’s scary…. need him… extremely nerdy about his rackets, and shoes, and clothes, and rambles to you about aerodynamics and posture and torque whenever you ask him to teach you, and you always have to shutup him up with a kiss and remind him that yeah you sort of want to learn to play tennis for him, but mostly you came bc he looks hot doing it. once he got asked in an interview if he ever thinks about you while he’s playing and his response was very concise, “no, never. it would be a big distraction,” and did not realize the implications of his heavily televised words. 

also…. not to make this post 40% yuuta but we could pull from canon a bit and make his sport fencing. he doesn’t excel because he’s the strongest, it’s because he’s learned to treat the sword as an extension of himself and a good strategist… also because i like the image of him pulling the helmet/mask off and shaking his hair out………..

don’t even know where to put yuuji…. volleyball? basketball? track and field??? the irony of him easily being the most athletic but canonically does not want to play sports 😭 but i can see him playing a sport because someone scouts him and it turns out to be a way to make steady money to support himself and his grandpa :( by the time he’s qualified and made it to the olympics, wasuke is doing much better (thanks to yuuji having landed some preemptive sponsorships and being able to afford better medical care), but not so well enough that he can travel across the world to watch yuuji play. wasuke tells you that you should travel and be with yuuji, but yuuji is so touched by the idea that you would stay with his grandpa and be by his side when he’s away :(( he wins gold, of course, and he doesn’t even wait until the closing ceremony—which, he’d mentioned in all of his interviews, so nobody can be too upset. he’s on record saying, “i’m excited to play, but i’m even happier to be going home. my girlfriend and my grandpa are watching me and i miss them!” several times— he’s on the first flight home with flowers, and tears in his eyes. puts his gold medal on his grandpa’s neck as a thank you, and spends probably thirty minutes straight hugging you and kissing you and honestly don’t put it past him to propose now that he’s got nike ambassador money 

nanami started judo as a way to relieve the stress of his overbearing job, and someone at the gym/training center notices he seems to be a natural despite being a beginner. he starts to draw a crowd, which annoys him at first because the point of judo was discipline and release from having to deal with too many people at his office job, but nanami supposes he can’t be too mad when you introduce yourself as a talent scout and offer him professional training. there’s irony in him accepting your offer, because it was definitely not based in professionalism at all… quitting his job as a salaryman to become a professional athlete in his mid-twenties was not on his bingo chart, but if it means he will have met you, then so be it. you’re with him all the way, through his training, competitions, world championships, qualifiers, all the way until he’s on the podium. you’re the first to congratulate him, but he interjects by telling you he’s quitting. you ask him why—he just won at the olympics for crying out loud, but nanami just shakes his head, puts down his flowers and his medal so his hands are free to hold your face and tell you, “it would be unethical to kiss my manager, so i am quitting.” (later, when everything is said and done, and you two are cuddling, you mention to him that he could just hire a new manager, and not quit his new career, to which he blushes because yeah… that’s probably more rational, but rational was not in his train of thought at the time)

the amount of antis celebrating sukuna's death is honestly depressing to me. everyone hates him because he's the main antagonist of this series, but interestingly enough it's the main protagonist who's the most heartbroken about his death.

[nieceeee]

Gojo has a physical touch love language because oftentimes your love language is what you felt that you lacked as a child. So his clinginess really isn’t his fault, it’s just because he’s never had anyone to truly love on him. So when you come around, he’s so obsessed with someone who loves him for him and has an underlying fear of letting you go because then he will be alone again and he can’t bare losing someone else. 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

He is such a brat oh my god...

i guess it’s less that they Completely Understood each other and more that . just. they met each other at the perfect time . they had a bond that could never be replaced . they could be their true selves around each other, even if it only lasted for a year or two . but it still meant so much to the both of them !!! those two years alone meant so much more than the ten years they spent apart and that completely fucking Destroys me . they had something that neither one of them would ever find again and if it’s not Total Understanding then i truly believe it was unconditional love . soulmatism. the feeling of finding your other half . they had each other for two little years and it was the single most vibrant blue spring of their lives

I think JJK going on break after the last chapter is a bit cruel. This is nerve-wracking. We still have 3 chapters left and so many things can happen there. 268 feels too good to be true and the title is weird.

I'm not sure what is the right translation and I don't have access to raws. Right now, it's 268 title is "Finale" or "Conclusion" but I heard from someone that it can be also be read as "Curtains".

If it can be read as "Curtains", then it could be a reference to "final curtains". The problem is JJK has its own version of "Curtains", right? Idk what to think.

Gosh I wish it was “Curtains”. The chapter title is 決着 (Kecchaku) which means settlement/conclusion/end.

For example, at the end of an extremely brutal fight in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Jolyne screams “Kechakuuuuuuu!” (決着ゥゥーーーッ!!) (It's actually a small Jojo meme in the JP fandom.) This got translated as "Game set!"

I love the localization they used for this since that entire battle was like struggling in arcade mode for a fighting game.

Anyways, in the context of JJK, especially since this has been a literal Sukuna Gauntlet and the previous chapter had the “Ringing the bell on a long fight.” editor’s comment, I don’t think there’s an ambiguous way to read Kecchaku. The Curtain/Veil kanji in JJK is 帳 (Tobari). (Though if there’s some fancy wordplay I’m missing please let me know.)

However…I would kneel before Gege if this was an elaborate trick by Sukuna—him giving Yuji delusions of a happy ending only to yank it away last second. It’s very hard to make characters feel familiar but slightly off on purpose for misdirection. That kind of tonal control is something I praise Umineko for. (Dungeon Meshi does it excellently for the shapeshifter scene.)

But that is pure copium I think. Sometimes otherwise good media just fumbles the endings. (Not an example of good media, but I was around for the Secret BBC Sherlock Season 4 Ending meltdown so I’m not too hopeful about a turnaround.) I personally blame the JP work culture/crunch since a lot of modern mangas have rushed endings due to burnout/unfair contracts.

I think the most heartbreaking examples of this phenomenon for me are The Owl House and Moral Orel. Those shows still stick the landing imo, but the creators are very open about how studio interference forced them to condense everything. You can feel that suffocation in the final episodes. Everything is just slightly off and you know it would be better if the creators were allowed their breathing room.

jjk spoilers chapter 236!! (some of you are probably laughing at me cuz this is old news but just to be safe)

the fact that Satoru died with a smile on his face is soo..... he was enjoying himself untill his last moments.

[sukugo]

i started watching jjk without knowing anything other than what i knew from your blog, and i never realized sukuna and gojo was a RAREPARE OF THE HIGHEST KIND. wym these dudes have only interacted like four time???

in conclusion: you conditioned me into shipping a rarepare i didn't know was rare.

GSJDGSJSGDJDHSJDHDJHD WE GOT ANOTHER ONE BOYS

and it's not even 4, they interact 1.5 times in literally the SECOND episode and then NEVER again. like literally never ever ever again GDJDHDKDHD im not even kidding

well. ok later they do have their promised Fight, but that's only happened in the manga, and for the anime.... it's a WHILE until we get there

(but also the fight and everything related to it was so fucking gay i don't even know what to tell u. just that it makes it all worth it)

but also, no worries my beloved claudia, u've come at a good time fandom wise hahah. u don't have to go through the drought i went through. sukugo has risen from the rarepair trenches and are doing pretty okay i feel (downside being obv with greater popularity comes more Shit) (and well, hella spoilers if u're watching the anime the fight is pretty much the only proper interaction they have fgsjdhfkf)

BUTTT GGSHRGRHE HELL YEAH LET'S GO SUKUGOOOOOOOOO THEY MAY NEVER INTERACT BUT THEY ARE VERY SEXY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

in conclusion: teehee :3 im sorry but also am i really? (no)

EDIT: HI IM IRRATIONALLY ANGRY AT THIS DRAWING HAVE SOME COLOUR BLORBSIFICATIONS

[vesselmade-a]

can we talk about how, in the light novel nanami refers to yuji as ‘sukuna’s vessel’ and gojo quickly cuts him off by saying ‘I’m not talking about Sukuna’s vessel, but a boy by the name of Itadori Yuji’. i think he may have also been thinking about himself in this moment as well. yuji who’s known as just a vessel and gojo who’s only known as the strongest.

your boyfriend, gojo satoru (part four)

part one | part two | part three | part four | part five | bonus

- you say it first. three simple words. i love you. and yet the way he blinks in stunned silence, the way he hesitates before choosing careful words, the tears that run down his cheeks, hidden by his blindfold, are anything but simple. they tell the story of an unloved man. someone who's been left behind every single time. someone who's never heard those words. (or someone who has but can never believe them when they're said.) you've never seen him so serious. you hadn't thought it was a big deal. you'd been thinking it every day since the first time you'd met him. it was one of those things that you could never choke out. but then one day you two are sitting at home, he's laughing at some stupid joke you'd told, and you'd been starstruck by how beautiful he'd looked. and in the moment, you'd blurted them out. which had made his laughter die down almost immediately. even with the blindfold on, you knew he was staring at you intensely. but you'd stood firm in your words, even with your visible red cheeks and flustered smile. even when he asks you, are you sure, in that rare voice of his. the one where his words are small and quiet and you know he's at his limit. (maybe, more than that, the strongest jujutsu sorcerer is just tired.)

- the strongest jujutsu sorcerer. he isn't lying when he flaunts his title. you know that. sometimes you wonder, why you? out of everyone in this world, why you? there was no way that you were matcheable in terms of his power. not even the slightest. if anything he was way out of your league. (at least in terms of power. you liked to think that your looks were adequate. he had never once mentioned otherwise. and the frequent attention from others wasn't exactly something you liked to preen about but... well, if the shoe fits.) still, he knows it as well as you do. he isn't stupid. he isn't blind. and he certainly isn't deaf to the whispers that seem to surround you two whenever you go out. so sometimes when you're lying together in the darkness of your bedroom, you work up the nerve to ask, why me? out of everyone, why me? he's silent for a few minutes because there are so many things he could say. eventually, all he can manage is, you're you. you have to stifle a dry laugh. i'm me? that's what you think? that's what the strongest jujutsu sorcerer thinks of me? face it, satoru, i'm not strong like you. i'm weak. so much weaker. so why me? you repeat. this time he doesn't hesitate. his words are firm and they don't exactly warm your heart but they do soothe some of the tension. you're not weak, he tells you. you are not weak. you're strong. you're so strong. you have a strong mind, cunning and clever and a little manipulative. and you have a strong heart when you care for others without even knowing the full extent of their disposition. and you show them mercy when i can't. you never break. and you never falter. you never hesitate. not like i do. his voice gets a little melancholic at that and you wonder if he's remembering geto. neither of you speaks for the rest of the night but you pull him closer and stroke his hair and you have to hope that your unspoken words are enough to satiate the both of you for tonight.

JJK CHAPTER 221 SPOILER AHEAD ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

If you haven’t read the chapter yet BEWARE!

A couple thoughts here—

Firstly, I love how unserious Gojo is being right now. Like insulting the hell outta Sukuna and even Kenjaku at the same time lmao. ☠️

Secondly— I’m not saying when Gojo thought to himself “I came all this way to give Suguru’s body a proper burial.” That I cried… but I’m also not saying I didn’t.
