the special grade rank as a tool of control and supression.
something that gets overlooked during conversations of "who is special grade material" nowadays is that the special grade rank is not only very specific in its requirements, it also has political ramifications.
I'm seeing a lot of people upset at the confirmation that Satoru didn't see Shoko as a friend.
But that's always been the point between Shoko and Satoru. While she would have wanted to be there for him, Satoru and his particular way of being has prevented him »
"Gojo loves being taken care of!” I say into the mic.
The crowd boos. “Stop babying gojo” someone screams. I begin to walk off, when a voice speaks, commanding silence from the room.
"She’s right," they say. Everyone steps aside. There in the crowd stands Gojo himself…
he was taken away from his parents, his clan was so strict that he ran away from home to escape it. Gege can’t even imagine him doing anything that would truly bring him joy (besides meeting strong sorcerers), and yet his only complex was not being able to stop Geto :(
We have Gojo wanting to be a freeloader if he weren’t a sorcerer, and Geto scamming old men to get money for his cult. 😭 They really matched their freaks on a whole different level
