"Local Girl Acquires New Hyper Fixation And Her Ao3 Fic Count Reach An All Time High."

did you mean it? 🐈🐈‍⬛

Me to my draft: You are a oneshot.

The draft: Wrong. I am the pilot chapter of a multichapter fic that you do not have the bandwidth to take on, but will haunt your every waking thought anyway.

watching “star athlete” tonight and the moment when young yuki was leaving modena in 2015 left me in shambles. it must’ve taken a lot of courage for yuki to move overseas at such a young age and without speaking a word of english, let alone italian. he looked like such a shy boy yet he was welcomed warmly by his new teammates, who helped him and guided him every step of the way. all his friends embracing him and giving him words of comfort while he was in tears because he had to leave was so overwhelming. everyone chanting “ishikawa alè”, hugging him… and now yuki is the captain of ryujin nippon, the bronze medalists of this year’s vnl. he’s such an incredible athlete and role model, people like him truly make you contemplate the power of sports 🥹

You're telling me that Yuji didn't make sure that Gojo (and Choso... and what about Nanami?) get proper burials?

We didn't get to see it?

I keep wondering why so many fans (including myself) were bitter about the jjk ending.

Best I can think of is that it's because of the collectivist nature of the narrative -

defeating Sukuna was a collective struggle.

Jjk narrative seeks to dismantle the extreme individualism/hero-cult.

For us - a society built on the logic of hiarchy, that's a hard pill to swallow.

Gojo "winning" by having played his part in the collective struggle and having no regrets and Sukuna "losing" and thus regretting his choices that were proven wrong, choosing for the first time ever to reincarnate open to love -

... means there are no simple solutions, people can change, love, and work together no matter their personal differences.

There is no solitary evil mogul that we can pin all the evil on, and no solitary hero that we can push our own responsibility for saving the collapsing society on. No, it's our own responsibility to carry on as the new generation.

Also, there is a point of how mundane were the last two chapters before this. As if to remind us that life goes on and that there must come a time when students fly out of the nest and pick up their role as the next responsible ones.

Ah.

...

(( But i still miss Gojo, man. ))

“Itafushi love each other unconditionally,” I say into the mic.

The crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.

“She’s right,” they say. I look for the owner of the voice. There in the third row stands: Akutami Gege himself.

Since jjk ended lemme post some fanart i did for it last month. It's all traditional art/copic markers. I had fun doing it, not so much reading the cursed ending
