I Would Be VERY Interested In The Long List Of Jigen Headcanons You Mentioned!

I would be VERY interested in the long list of Jigen headcanons you mentioned!

-rubs hands- here it is!!!

I'm pretty sure Jigen has PTSD, even though that's not really shown in the show (or I just didn't catch it). Probably has nightmares too. Goemon helps him calm down from them. They used to be about his past, but now they're mostly about losing his partners.

He has tattoos !! A really cool full-back tattoo, probably irezumi (traditional Japanese tattooing technique, the stuff you see on yakuza). There's a phoenix and white chrysanthemums. He kinda regrets getting it when he gets refused at the entrance of onsens. But on the other hand, Lupin loves his tattoos, so that entirely makes up for it.

We all know about his taste in men, at this point it’s not really a headcanon anymore (but it’s just really fun to think about)

He is so, so touch-starved. This man has almost never received any affection, so now he kind of short-circuits every time Lupin or Goemon does something nice for him. He hates to admit it but he loves cuddles. (also he probably blanked the first time Lupin or Goemon called him by his first name)

He picked up a bit of French from Lupin. Hearing Jigen speak French makes Lup a bit weak at the knees (but honestly, who wouldn’t be). Especially when Jigen calls Lupin “Arsène” (no one’s called him that in years, and the intimacy of first name term paired with Jigen’s deep, rumbling voice, well… Lupin is but a man. A very, very weak bisexual man). Also Lupin somehow managed to make Jigen believe that “enculé” means something akin to “my beloved”.

Jigen and Fujiko have sibling energy. They pretend they hate each other, and they do get on each other’s nerves a lot, but if you leave them together unsupervised, they’re going to get into so much shenanigans. Utter chaos. Sometimes they also get together to drink expensive wine, paint their nails and trash-talk Lupin.

(Fujiko is also trans btw, fight me)

He can shoot virtually anything – even if he’s never used it before, he’ll learn it in five minutes flat. Even a rocket launcher. Even a tank. Even a friggin space laser. If it can shoot, Daisuke Jigen will learn how to use it, and have the time of his life learning it.

Also, he knows so much about guns, just SO MUCH, and he can talk passionately about them for hours on end (it makes him very happy)

I think he might be neurodivergent? I’m not sure. I just really like the idea of him infodumping and also hand-flapping (me? Projecting my own stims onto my favourite characters? It’s more likely than you think). He’s usually super quiet and doesn’t really talk much, but get him onto a topic he loves, and he’ll talk your ears off (in a good way. Honestly I’d love to just sit there and listen to him talk about guns).

Jigen and Goemon mutual infodumping about guns and about Bushido.

Besides that, I think his relationship with Goemon is this very calm and peaceful kind of haven thing, like they can just sit together in silence for hours on end and be content just being in each other’s presence. They don’t need words to let the other know how much he’s loved. It’s a welcome break for Lupin’s constant hyperactivity (but they also both love their hyperactive boyfriend very much) (this song. This song is what I’m talking about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwGn73AW-gk )

Thank you for enabling me!! I just love him so very much <3

Do you know what your dash needs?

This lady!

Meet Kuchisake Onna, who is unsurprisingly known as “The Slit-Mouth Woman.” She is one of Japan’s freakiest urban legends, and she is probably what would happen if you used dark magic to fuse Heath Ledger’s Joker with Slender Man and gave her Sweeney Todd’s blood-lust and Snow White’s stepmother’s vanity issues.

According to legend, Slit-Mouth Woman was mutilated and killed by her jealous husband, as per the norm in onryō tales. She promptly comes back as a malicious ghost and spends her days wandering all spooky-like through the streets of Japan while wearing a white surgical mask, which isn’t that weird a sight in Japan’s big cities during flu season. Regular people wear the masks so they don’t spread germs. Slit-Mouth Woman doesn’t give a single fuck about germs. She wants to spill blood. Specifically, children’s blood. Naturally, this brings up the question of why she’s taking her vengeance out on random, innocent kids rather than going for insanely violent husbands/boyfriends. My best guess is evil spirit logic, but I digress…

If you’re living in Japan, haven’t hit puberty yet, and decide to take a shortcut through that suspiciously dark and empty alleyway or something, chances are she’ll suddenly appear like a wild Pokémon and get all up in your face.

“Am I beautiful?” she’ll ask you like a needy girlfriend, and since she’s not really bad-looking at all with the mask on you’d be almost tempted to say yes until she tears off said mask.

“You wanna know how I got these scars? Am I beautiful NOW?!” she’ll scream, after showing you what looks like what would happen if the world’s worst surgeon and the world’s worst dentist had a contest to see who could destroy someone’s mouth more.

“HOLY FUCKING SHIT!” would most likely be the first thing to come out your own mouth. This is a bad answer. In fact, there are few good answers in this situation. Like I said before, Slit-Mouth Woman runs on evil spirit logic and gives her victims less reasonable chances to escape than Jigsaw. Reply with the honest answer of “no, you’re hideous” and she’ll decapitate you with the freaking huge pair of scissors she keeps handy at all times. Lie your head off and say, “yes, you’re beautiful” and she’ll slice your face open to look just like hers, because…she wants to pass on the beauty secret? Try running away and she’ll hunt you down like a Stride Gum agent. The only way to win this battle is to answer with “you're average.”

Kid used confusion! It’s super effective!

For some reason or another the concept of “average” stumps her, and she’ll stand there dumbfounded, trying to work out this puzzle in her head, while you creep away and go straight to the police go brag to your friends that you survived an encounter with her.
