I know Geto is like a big sore spote in the whole fandom and i might be a bit insane, but i do love his story specifically because i dont think there is a way to fix it

We are being shown that well, he got really depressed and went into self isolation. In most cases, the best course of action would be to remove him from distress and have time to heal. The issue is that Geto couldnt just leave — he believes he needs to kill curses, and to become stronger he needs to eat them which distresses him further, and if he leaves people will die, and he cant ignore that just to keep himself sane. For a man like him if he head a specific goal to become strong for, i dont think the eating process would have been such a big issue, but we have to have a big distinction that jujutsu sorcerer is, at the end of the day, a profession. You’re not a chosen superhero to save the world. Those growing up in clans may have a worse childhood, but growing up with understanding that yes curses exist its part of nature does make it easier to bear. Which is one of reason why Gojo, even while having all the trauma, didnt have such gripes with reasons or goals — this is a life he was born into.

Thinking of sorcery as more than a job makes you perceive yourself as more of a hero, and heroes are good and just and get recognition. Non sorcerers dont know about them. Geto fell into a trap of doing something for others and despairing. Its easier not to think about that shit when you’re naturally good at it, and you have fun — which is why Amanai situation and Gojo becoming stronger was so bad. Now he went on missions alone, which meant no company to distract him, and now it was no longer all fun shits and giggles, its a job full of tragedies. Considering Gojo was targeted since birth, we can assume he killed people before Toji, death is, unfortunately, familiar to him. Not for Geto — not seeing someone you care about die right before you, and certainly not being that close to death himself. He’s not longer the best at it, and its no longer fun, and he gets no recognition. Tobe precise, those are not bad thinks to want — we all want them. But if you dont get them here he would have been better to ya know. Find another job probably

Like the worst part about this whole thing is that some shit like that would have happened eventually one way or another, they’re not invincible. Childhood would eventually end, and in a way Geto spiraling is inevitable. The system is inherently flawed, and the issue they deal with is cruel. Some jobs are much more dangerous and have a detrimental effect on your mental health — its just that no one thought to give jujustu sorcerers some help, which is another problem. Adding the fact that he’s neither a saviour being thanked by everyone, or a strongest, yeah, he can’t figure out how to do this shit.

In AUs, I do think there are ways he could have handled it. Like if Gojo wasn’tin school, maybe he took his whole education with the clan? Or my au where he’s in a prison realm for centuries? Like yeah, sure, if Geto was the strongest, the only person here, i do think he would have probably felt invaluable. Youre great for your profession, you were born for it, why would you leave?

This may be projecting, but i do think his way of thinking about it is inherently flawed, a very slippery slope. People need a goal, a meaning, but looking for it outward is a sure way to get yourself into a slump, I went through this shit in a nasty manner when everything i did revolved around other people. Basing your decisions on what others would think is an easy way to pretend like its not your responsibility. This is why Gojo tells Megumi to be selfish and this is why during the entrance exams Yaga says that others wont appreciate your actions and you cant base your motivations off others.

Thats the ultimate tragedy, the fact that thinking like Geto did is ridiculously easy. You go into uni on the same course as your friend just to be with them and when something goes wrong your first thought would be that you did that for them, even thought its your life choices and decision. Yeah.

I have no conclusions for you, just some ramblings. I like my Geto mean and fucked up and insecure, makes him so real and relatable as a person.

#jjk #jujutsu kaisen #geto suguru #jjk analysis #yeah #i dont think gojo could have fixed it #or anyone #or even absence of toji and happy ending for amanai #i think this would have happened one way or another #i know many would say im probably too hard on geto #im projecting i agree #but also its so fucking easy to think others owe you shit for your actions #so then when you get nothing its hurts worse #in a way #geto solved thst problem with his genocide #gave himself meaning #good for mental health #bad for everything else #tbf #life is fucked up and horrible and his way of survival is just one of them #but personally i judge #just because i was there and it makes me feel too mych

#how long ago did i watch pacific rim? i feel like it might have been last year but i finally drew this lmao #sometimes it just takes a while. newt specifically gets under my skin tho bc i think his research interests r kinda similar to mine #at least in a broad sense. but im dealing with cyanobacteria which is less exciting to most ppl lol but any fanfic i read thats like: newt #has 6 phds im like fucking what? what r they in? they have to be literature based right?! when would u have time to independently design. #carry out. write and defend for 6 independent projects in different topics by his age? #what as waste of time. i say as a person who would happily fuck around and collect degrees without ever having to get a real job #idk characters i relate to make me a little unhinged bc i do not like to relate to characters lol #pacific rim #herman gottlieb #newt geiszler #newton geiszler #tw blood #tw gore #also i agree with herman abt the numbers quote. physics is like literally understanding the fabric of the universe so like yeah #also i cant draw hermann and i cant see his face without thinking of owen from torchwood who i hated lol #pacrim

Ghost who never really had an extended family, only the few people immediately connected to him and even then they have more painful memories than good.

vs

Soap who grew up swarmed with siblings and aunts and uncles and cousins and nieces and nephews later on and although he has his own issues there as well, they've mostly managed to work things out.

#blah blalex #you agree. i am right. soap has so much immediate and extended family the mactavish family gatherings every holiday and stuff sure are An #Experience (<- im projecting tbh and i dont even have that much like extended family the ones i got are p tight knit but anyway). he'd #definitely kinda have to ease Ghost into it lmao i think itd be insanely overwhelming to just like drop him in there. #john soap mactavish #simon ghost riley #ghoap #ghostsoap #soapghost #ghost x soap #soap x ghost #codmw2 #call of dudy

So, I've been thinking over this, and I'm really not trying to come across as rude or offend anyone with my take, but...

What exactly does this fandom want from this game and its characters?

Do y'all want a game featuring good, uncomplicated human men who live by good, uncomplicated human standards and never do anything wrong but with tails, horns, and wings?

Or do y'all want a game about the literal lords of hell and whatever that may entail?

Because I can't be the only one who finds it ironic that the characters who act the most like demons are widely disliked, while the characters who act less like demons are widely liked, right? In a game about dating demons, being demonic or showing any kind of character flaw isn't attractive, and those of us who actually do enjoy the darker themes, when we do get them, are treated as having somehow failed morally for liking it. It makes no sense to me.

And this is in spite of so many posts from this fandom stating how they want their "demons to be demons." That they want complex and interesting characters. That they want to feel like they're in a realm surrounded by devils and engage with all the hostilities and angst and drama and blood that comes along with that, yet in the same breath, can't even handle characters like Lucifer, Belphegor, Asmodeus, Solomon, Simeon, and Diavolo. Characters who aren't exactly nice or fully transparent about their goals or actions. Characters who are a little or a lot fucked up. Characters who are gray at worse, but ultimately, show they are capable of being more. Even if poorly executed by the writers, they tried to show us, to some extent, exactly what we've been asking for. Now we rarely get events or chapters where the brothers so much as even swat a fly, and I can't help but blame that on the knee jerk reaction of the fandom to scream about anything less than flattering.

Which is why I can't help but wonder if Obey Me! Nightbringer does happen to touch on darker themes and characterization, than I can only imagine how well the fandom will handle any of it (my guess is poorly).

Feel free to leave a comment. As I'd really like to have some more opinions on this.

#obey me #obey me shall we date #obey me! #obey me! swd #obey me! shall we date? #also as a warning some of the comments on this post may be triggering for some #but i ask that you please do not comment on this post projecting your emotions onto others #i also ask that if you're unable to engage with this post or others' comments critically than by all means make your own #otherwise i can and will block you #not trying to be rude here but im not having it #you will not harass or insult anyone on this post because they dont agree with you #i also feel i should note that this doesnt mean you have to like any of these characters #just that its strange that people throw fits over them despite claiming to want darker content #and then also becoming upset when we do get darker content which leads to having none or little at all

yknow what i'll put this in the main tags one of my main worries with this (other than the safety of the cg illustrator that was fired and employees at project moon obviously) is that it feels like everytime theres a controversy, project moon just lie down and take it. theyre like doormats. appeasing them isnt going to make them stop, if anything it makes them more likely to do something like this again because they know its going to work and because it HAS before (im looking at ruina)

#hiiii this is me from tomorrow. they were legally allowed to fire the artist yes but i still dont agree w the decision #also adding this bc this is still getting traction one thing ive seen no one talk abt (bc its not important compared to everything else) #is that pmoon originally made limbus a gacha to fund their other projects. im not saying this as like a guilt trip or something 2 consider #btw. im saying it bc they have most definitely lost a chunk of their fanbase bc of this decision and therefore revenue #project moon #limbus company #library of ruina #lobotomy corporation #projmoon #i have sympathy for them ofc bc its a horrifying situation but im still disappointed abt how its dealt with #u are running a gacha game now its genuinely REALLY concerning if u resolve that type of shit like this #text

ok im sorry i realized pandemonium is close and got to thinking and im pissed as fuck about tsukasa’s lims again. prsk devs were really like “Ok guys let’s give this guy two of the most banger lims in the game-“

“Yes great perfect. Ok now as soon as ny3 ends let’s pivot 180° and beat him to death with a rusty metal pipe.” like for the love of god. since then we’ve had three kasa lims, and they are, in order:

managed to ruin my literal top dream mixed lineup of ruishizukasa by having leaks tease the thrilling concept of tanuki/kitsune limkasa and then ended up being Walking Nerd Emoji in a Plain Middle Schooler’s Uniform. when lineup and card set theme leaks dropped i was literally gearing up to podium this event, i wanted it to be my t3, and then the cards dropped and made me so mad i dropped to maybe t100 if i’m bored enough

very pretty card art at least but my literal least favorite limkasa hair especially in terms of 3dmodel + previous world record holder for Most Boring Lim Costume

*audible snarling* fucking kasafes. fucking new world record holder for #1 Most Boring Lim Costume and on a fes card of all things. fucking plain white cotton tshirt HGTV sugar free breakfast syrup commercial ass sitting in a boring suburban kitchen holding a piece of bread. “what’s that?” said the devs. “you were excited to see tsukasa’s version of the concept of fragment sekais, the reality-bending time-warping realms of pure feeling given physical form where characters come face to face with deeply symbolic fantastical scenarios and confront reflections of their deepest emotions? you wanted to see how creatively we could address the myriad of different complex patterns of thought that make tsukasa who he is, and were excited to see which of many unique and interesting routes we could’ve taken to explore him at his roots? ha! hahahahaha! No. You get breadboy.”

LIKE. GIRL. HELLO. you have GOT to be shitting me. these are the lims we’re getting? for TENMA FUCKING TSUKASA of all people???? i could pull up to the most boring outfit competition in my last job’s uniform tshirt and a pair of uncomfortably textured khakis, and if i got up backstage and saw my opponents were these three chucklefucks, i would piss my pants in soul-crushing terror knowing i was miles out of my league.

LIKE??? WHAT HAPPENED?????? compare them to his first three lims’ fits and hairstyles:

the fuckin reverse glowup from those to the latest three is unreal. absolute shitfest. world’s most rancid dimdown. someone get my boy some fucking CLOTHES

as i always provide on my kasaposts, please see my approved hater license below the cut:

i adore him guys i swear. im mad on his behalf not mad at him

#tsukasa tenma #project sekai #me.txt #okay thats my pettiness quota for like the next 3 months. apologies i will return to being chill now #also like no shade to ppl who do like the recent lims. i have no quarrel with you i prommy. i am just. Disappointed and Enraged #that said please do not try to argue with me about why kasafes is genius and im stupid for disliking it #i promise ive seen every argument under the sun. i simply do not agree. my friends have received many a discord rant on why that is

[sleepyminty]

*sigh* well sooner or later she will get mixed up in this mess

But in all seriousness:

While i dont agree with her, we shouldnt harass her because of it. Cuz imagine being angry at PM for not protecting its employees from harassment.....so you go ahead and harass a person working with PM because of they desire to work with a person they worked 3 years with and that might know/understand more about a certain situation than us. How are we better than them? Dont you find it ironic? That’s just low hanging fruit

As for Cassie:

We’re sorry for our behavior but prior to your response we would love you to give it a second thought. Yes you guys have been friend for years but if your friend done something wrong you should steer them to the correct path as a good friend should be. This ‘controversy’ is no mere mistake and shouldnt be taken lightly

#project moon #limbus company #library of ruina #lobotomy corporation #cassie wei #project moon controversy #PM drama #this whole situation is just tragic #my girl just want to enjoy TGS but cant even escape from those who still mad with the recent drama #and the fact she still defend them is just add to it #i mean mili and PM have been partner for a long time too #everyone is just put into a fucked up situation here #this is just harmful even for ishmael #im not condoning mili and cassie #but i just want everyone to understand #i remember that theres a tumblr post talking abt seperating mili from the controversial #so if anyone find pls send it to me #and yes they are not happy #i dont want anymore great artists to leave ok #i dont agree with her but dont harass her

I want a version of drink with me where the barricade boys realize grantaire is drunk and instead of joking and/or reprimanding him for it on his verse they gently take the bottle away from him and hold his face and are there for him bc a lot of them realize that their time on earth is ticking down and so what good is it to fight with one another when they could just as easily love. what tenderness is there that is not more simply conveyed through the very sentence "drink with me"?

#bc like #getting drunk is #i mean its something that #how do i explain #if a group of friends as large as the barricade boys all unanimously agree to drink together i think the only thing that points to is their #comforr with one another and the trust they instill within each other to take care of each other #and i think that sentiment would extend to grantaire #so they would take the bottle from him and comfort him #maybe im just self projecting tho 👀👀👀😤 #les miserables headcanons #les mis #les miserables #grantaire headcanon #grantaire

I saw some people say that the gay Kazui theory is "an insane reach" because there's no hints to it in Half so I went to do some digging and made a compilation of lyrics that I do think hint to the theory

"Please tell me what I should do, feelings shrouded in lies will float away and disappear" is one that might not seem obvious based on Half alone, but the context of Cat helps alot.

Shrouded means 'a thing that envelops or obscures something'. What Kazui is saying in this lyric is that 'the feelings he's hidden will go away'. We know that Kazui lied "for the sake of true love" from Cat so we can assume that the 'thing' obscuring his hidden feeling is his marriage.

Now, holding that thought, here's a piece of queer history. A "lavender marriage" is when a m/w couple get married under the sake of convenience to conceal the sexuality of one or both partners. Now this was done with the consent and knowledge of both partners, but sounds familiar doesn't it? Getting married to hide true feelings. Feelings being shrouded by lies if you will.

There's also this lyric which I find very interesting because the distance in their relationship is caused by Kazui's sin, further proved in a scene that shows right after this. Kazui got married because he thought it would make his true feelings on love dissappear, and when it instead does the opposite and just make his sin more obvious he gets confused and starts to doubt if this is actually "true love" or as he says, happiness. Obviously we know that straight romance isn't the only one to exist, and isn't the "true" or "peak" romance but Kazui is the oldest prisoner in Milgram, so he most likely grew up surrounded by the view that gay marriage is wrong, hence why he doesn't view it as "true love"

this is the distance scene btw, we can see that the green apple (Kazui's sin) is litteraly putting a wedge in his relationship by being in between he and Hinako

#this isnt meant to be hateful btw i just think theres no point on dismissing a theories evidence because you dont agree with it #i like the gay kazui theory and personally think its one of the most probable #but i can see why people think other theories too and enjoy hearing about them #theres also probably some lyrics i missed because im rlly bad at lyric vague-ness #vague imagrey? oh hell yeah! gimme all of it too tear apart!!! #vague lyrics? ... sigh #also put the meaning for shrouded in case youre like me and had to look it up #milgram project #milgram #kazui mukuhara

That video that combined Fuuta’s and Mikoto's vas singing Monopoisoner got into my brain omg (link in the reblog). I thought it was funny that it was titled a "duet," seeing as the song choice/characters aren't really the type for dueting... It definitely seemed more like an intense competition, so this happened

#milgram #milgram project #fuuta kajiyama #mikoto kayano #kajiyama fuuta #kayano mikoto #in my mind the prisoners could hear one anothers cover songs #fuuta was jealous of everyone praising mikoto for killing it with that cover #he talks a bunch of shit that he could sing it better and of course the prisoners agree that they need to settle it officially #i didnt intend it as 0309 but im realizing now how perfect it is

(Some people will kill me for this) I watched Neon Genesis Eva back in 2021-ish and the more I think about the show the worse the show gets, I think its a very pretty show, Especially with the strain the animators were put under. But the character writing is pretty awful regarding all of the women in the show, and even disregarding misogyny as a element (Which it IS) The show builds so much momentum just to do nothing with it, This show has a lot of potential it throws away to focus on asuka or whoever shoving her ass in the camera. The themes of human connection are surface level at the best and misguided especially for a audience of 14 year olds at the worst.

Its such a mixed bag I enjoy talking about mostly cause I can find no one who agrees with me, half of the people I encounter just enjoy the cool art anyway and I can get behind that, I just find it impossible to ignore the many many issues with the writing.

.

#Yeah I agree the show did not do it for me at all #I can usually roll my eyes and ignore fanservice but with such a serious story and such emotionally fucked young characters #It felt so so so deeply fucking scummy it near singlehandedly ruined the whole thing for me. Other weird writing shit on top of it too #I liked end of evangelion a lot tho #Maybe I’ll do a rewatch someday but idk I also feel that the themes feel a lot more surface level than ppl make them out to be #I’m sure that stuff is really appropriate powerful for someone at a different stage of their life than me #But Im not that person so I’m like…Well yeah. Feel it’s hard to connect to if you’re not A Shinji. Banks on a sizeable amount of projection #Art is beautiful thoigh and has tons of things I do really enjoy but. Man idk #Sonny Boy does for me emotionally everything that evangelion was intended to. I’d rather just rewatch that
