  2. 0:04>> That year, chapter 236, "Going South,"
  3. 0:07climbed straight to the top of the Hot
  4. 0:09Search. More than 60%of the audience
  5. 0:11were arguing fiercely, with tens of
  6. 0:13millions of discussions going viral, and
  7. 0:15they were all stuck on Satoru Gojo's
  8. 0:17apology: "I'm sorry, I couldn't make
  9. 0:19Sukuna go all out." Did this line really
  10. 0:22shatter the "strongest in the modern era
  11. 0:24" character setting into pieces? I have
  12. 0:25always said that the "Going South"
  13. 0:27chapter perfected Gojo's character
  14. 0:29design. Because revolving around this
  15. 0:30character, you cannot escape the label
  16. 0:32of "the strongest." Currently, there are
  17. 0:34two dominant impressions out there.
  18. 0:35First, Gojo is the hardest-working
  19. 0:37workhorse of the protagonist side, the
  20. 0:39ultimate strategic nuclear weapon,
  21. 0:41capable of carrying everything and
  22. 0:43always running around, handling all
  23. 0:44sorts of incidents. Second, Gojo is
  24. 0:46inherently an arrogant person, with his
  25. 0:48ego as the number one core. What is
  26. 0:50called "completing missions" is just
  27. 0:52something done conveniently on a whim.
  28. 0:54He never thinks about, and doesn't care
  29. 0:55about, the terrible consequences caused
  30. 0:57by his impulsiveness and his frequent,
  31. 0:59baseless tardiness. It is clear that
  32. 1:01these two viewpoints are diametrically
  33. 1:03opposed. But the strange thing is that
  34. 1:04both sides can find plot details in the
  35. 1:06original work to support their arguments
  36. 1:08, and quite sufficiently too. In Gojo's
  37. 1:10daily schedule according to Gege's
  38. 1:11official settings, because the mission
  39. 1:13load is so heavy, Gojo doesn't sleep
  40. 1:15until 4:00 AM, and by 7:00 AM he is
  41. 1:17already up, fulfilling his
  42. 1:18responsibilities as a teacher, giving
  43. 1:20advice and proper guidance to each
  44. 1:21student. For the rest of the time, he
  45. 1:23uses his overwhelming strength to
  46. 1:25continuously eliminate the endlessly
  47. 1:26emerging Cursed Spirits, even getting so
  48. 1:28tired that he falls asleep while waiting
  49. 1:30for his students. Although the schedule
  50. 1:32Gege set clearly states it's just one of
  51. 1:34Gojo's days, it is enough to prove that
  52. 1:36his "workhorse" character design is set
  53. 1:38in stone.
  54. 1:40But the situation of division arises.
  55. 1:42Right in chapter 1 of the main story,
  56. 1:43Gege has Gojo go on a business trip, and
  57. 1:45on the way, he stops to buy Kikufuku
  58. 1:47mochi, only to be taunted by his student
  59. 1:48and foster son, Fushiguro Megumi, that
  60. 1:50he was risking his life fighting while
  61. 1:52his teacher went shopping for gifts. I
  62. 1:54naturally know this is a mandatory plot
  63. 1:56requirement for Itadori to swallow
  64. 1:57Sukuna's finger, as well as a little
  65. 1:59amusement outside of the "workhorse"
  66. 2:01Gojo's missions. But at the moment
  67. 2:02Fushiguro explained that Sukuna's finger
  68. 2:04was missing and the situation was
  69. 2:06critical, even if Gojo couldn't pull
  70. 2:07himself away, he should have at least
  71. 2:09shown some concern. Yet he just kept
  72. 2:11smiling and joking around; Principal
  73. 2:13Yaga is going to be furious. So, within
  74. 2:15just the first three chapters, the
  75. 2:17entire portrait of Gojo, regardless of
  76. 2:19his actual strength, is that he is truly
  77. 2:22very laid-back. So between these two
  78. 2:24seemingly opposite perspectives, which
  79. 2:26one is the real Gojo?
  80. 2:27Unless Gege is contradicting himself,
  81. 2:29there is only one answer.
  82. 2:31The hardworking Gojo we see, and the
  83. 2:33Gojo who arrives late, capable of doing
  84. 2:35everything yet doing nothing at all.
  85. 2:37These two states exist in contradiction
  86. 2:39within the same person, yet both are him
  87. 2:41. Gojo is essentially a workhorse,
  88. 2:43crazier than office workers pulling
  89. 2:45overtime, but immediately after, he can
  90. 2:47turn into someone so lazy he doesn't
  91. 2:48want to do anything. And to mold these
  92. 2:50two opposing operational logics into one
  93. 2:52, a supreme, dominant character trait is
  94. 2:54needed to balance them. That is Gojo’s
  95. 2:56spontaneity. Because of this spontaneity
  96. 2:58, if he wants to grind day and night and
  97. 3:00risk his life to eliminate curses, he
  98. 3:02will do exactly that. And due to a
  99. 3:03different kind of spontaneity, if Gojo
  100. 3:05naturally doesn't want to do something,
  101. 3:07he won't do it. Jujutsu sorcerers are
  102. 3:08inherently a special group of people
  103. 3:10walking on the edge of humanity. Curses
  104. 3:12are energy born from the mixing of all
  105. 3:14kinds of negative emotions. It grants
  106. 3:16sorcerers greater power, but at the same
  107. 3:18time, it erodes their minds. More
  108. 3:20importantly, the end of a sorcerer's
  109. 3:22path is a mountain of corpses and a sea
  110. 3:24of blood, facing endless missions daily
  111. 3:25, sometimes being backstabbed by
  112. 3:27superiors, saving people who might be
  113. 3:29morally bankrupt, and seeing comrades
  114. 3:31pass away one by one; it would be
  115. 3:32strange if a sorcerer's mental state
  116. 3:34didn't suffer. And the way Gojo resists
  117. 3:36this erosion is by living spontaneously
  118. 3:38. In reality, because he was born with
  119. 3:40the Six Eyes, Gojo carried a destiny on
  120. 3:42his shoulders from the moment he was
  121. 3:44born. In other words, Gojo's childhood
  122. 3:46cannot be compared to that of a normal
  123. 3:48child. Stripping away his human
  124. 3:50characteristics, his birth was closer to
  125. 3:51that of a weapon. A weapon capable of
  126. 3:54shifting the balance of the jujutsu
  127. 3:56world, rarely seeing his own parents,
  128. 3:58seldom interacting with other clan
  129. 3:59relatives; since birth, he was protected
  130. 4:02to the point of insanity by his family,
  131. 4:04if not controlled, while constantly
  132. 4:05exposed to curses born from the endless
  133. 4:08malice of humanity.
  134. 4:09Any character given Gojo's childhood
  135. 4:11script could never develop a relatively
  136. 4:13normal personality or logic. With that
  137. 4:15experience, plus seeing his comrades
  138. 4:17depart one by one, I find it completely
  139. 4:19reasonable that Gojo would become jaded
  140. 4:21with the jujutsu world. It wasn't until
  141. 4:23Gojo entered the technical college that
  142. 4:25he met his only friend, the only person
  143. 4:27he would call his best friend: Geto.
  144. 4:30In the Hidden Inventory arc, other than
  145. 4:32his body maturing, Gojo hadn't changed
  146. 4:34the value system he acquired from being
  147. 4:36treated like a weapon. After wrecking a
  148. 4:38bunch of buildings and seeing Utahime,
  149. 4:40Gojo asks,
  150. 4:41"
  151. 4:41>> Are you crying?"
  152. 4:43>> If she were crying, would Gojo comfort
  153. 4:45her?
  154. 4:46Gojo doesn't answer Utahime's question
  155. 4:48directly, but instead says, "
  156. 4:49>> How could you be crying? You're weak,
  157. 4:51after all."
  158. 4:52>> So, the underlying logic of this
  159. 4:54sentence is still centered on strength
  160. 4:55and weakness. And Geto's first line of
  161. 4:57dialogue is,
  162. 4:59"
  163. 4:59>> Bullying the weak isn't something a man
  164. 5:01should do."
  165. 5:01>> Pay attention to this part. Geto's first
  166. 5:03sentence also relates to strength and
  167. 5:04weakness before cutting to the scene
  168. 5:06where Principal Yaga lectures them.
  169. 5:07Because the trio didn't put up a curtain
  170. 5:09during their mission, Gojo takes a full
  171. 5:11"loving" strike of guidance from
  172. 5:12Principal Yaga. Afterward, Gojo
  173. 5:14complains that it doesn't matter if
  174. 5:16ordinary people see them. They can't see
  175. 5:17the Cursed Spirits anyway. Geto
  176. 5:19immediately retorts: "
  177. 5:20>> The best way to limit the appearance of
  178. 5:22Cursed Spirits is to ensure that
  179. 5:24ordinary people always remain in a
  180. 5:25stable state of mind."
  181. 5:26>> Not only that, before Geto even finishes
  182. 5:29, Gojo is already impatient. "Got it,
  183. 5:31got it." In reality, as the chosen child
  184. 5:33of one of the three great, most powerful
  185. 5:35clans, how could Gojo not understand
  186. 5:37these most basic facts about Cursed
  187. 5:38Spirits? He obviously knew them well,
  188. 5:40but the main reason he engaged in these
  189. 5:42endless exchanges with Geto was simple:
  190. 5:44because at that time, they were the
  191. 5:46strongest duo. At this moment, Geto
  192. 5:48isn't a flower, but someone like Gojo,
  193. 5:50where the weak get to live. That is the
  194. 5:52correct form of society. Satoru, listen
  195. 5:55, jujutsu exists to protect
  196. 5:57non-sorcerers. Gojo, a mass-produced
  197. 5:59product packaged by his clan, absolutely
  198. 6:01loathes this kind of righteous rhetoric
  199. 6:03. Attaching reasons and responsibilities
  200. 6:05to jujutsu power is a sign of the weak.
  201. 6:07This way of speaking so passionately
  202. 6:09from your own moral high ground makes me
  203. 6:11sick. Heading outside to talk, Geto was
  204. 6:13ready to use force to have a "friendly"
  205. 6:14exchange with his friend. Proving that
  206. 6:16Geto himself agrees that power is a way
  207. 6:18to solve problems, so he intended to use
  208. 6:20it to correct Satoru's thinking. The
  209. 6:22purpose of fighting is to be able to use
  210. 6:24strength to win the right to speak. As
  211. 6:26for Shoko, she’s so used to it that she
  212. 6:27leaves immediately. This shows that when
  213. 6:29the two of them are free, sparring is an
  214. 6:31everyday occurrence. Just as the two
  215. 6:32were about to start, Yaga opened the
  216. 6:34door to stop the scuffle and assigned
  217. 6:35them the mission to protect the Star
  218. 6:37Plasma Vessel. The mission that would
  219. 6:39change both of their lives. Actually,
  220. 6:40writing up to this point feels like
  221. 6:42analyzing "Hidden Inventory" already.
  222. 6:44But to complete Gojo's character profile
  223. 6:46, I still have to say:
  224. 6:47>> Who do I have to fear?
  225. 6:49The two of us are the strongest.
  226. 6:50>> Geto cuts him off immediately.
  227. 6:54Satoru, I’ve wanted to remind you before
  228. 6:56, stop saying "the great me" all the
  229. 6:58time.
  230. 7:00>> We know Geto's parents are both normal
  231. 7:02people, not sorcerers, so the universal
  232. 7:04value education he received was perfect
  233. 7:06and dogmatic.
  234. 7:08Gojo’s living conditions were unlikely
  235. 7:10to allow for such a perfect education in
  236. 7:12values. Therefore, Gojo during his high
  237. 7:14school years took Geto’s value system as
  238. 7:16his subjective motivation. I will talk
  239. 7:18about this later.
  240. 7:20Next, the strongest duo easily crushed
  241. 7:21the group of sorcerers and their leader
  242. 7:23, so Gojo and Geto in their high school
  243. 7:25days were undoubtedly the strongest
  244. 7:27combat force.
  245. 7:29That so-called group of sorcerers was
  246. 7:31nothing more than a rabble in front of
  247. 7:32them.
  248. 7:33But the variable appeared in that man,
  249. 7:35Fushiguro Toji, the one with not a drop
  250. 7:38of cursed energy.
  251. 7:40>> I've regained a bit of the feeling.
  252. 7:42Thank the stars for that.
  253. 7:45>> After Toji slashed the two strongest
  254. 7:47with ease, Gojo crawled back from the
  255. 7:49gates of death.
  256. 7:50Toji's blade forced him to awaken
  257. 7:52between life and death, mastering
  258. 7:54Reversed Cursed Technique and attaining
  259. 7:56true, absolute power.
  260. 7:58The closed loop of Limitless,
  261. 7:59near-infinite cursed energy via the Six
  262. 8:01Eyes, and Reversed Cursed Technique to
  263. 8:03heal all wounds made him the only one in
  264. 8:05a thousand years of jujutsu history—
  265. 8:07literally invincible. This awakening
  266. 8:09completely shattered the only equality
  267. 8:11that existed between him and Geto.
  268. 8:14And at that very moment, Gojo shed his
  269. 8:16human shell.
  270. 8:17Because back then, besides Fushiguro
  271. 8:19Toji, he and Geto were already the
  272. 8:21strongest. Once Gojo fully awakened
  273. 8:24Limitless, his combat capability
  274. 8:26increased exponentially. Gojo became a
  275. 8:28god because there was no longer any
  276. 8:29existence capable of standing beside him
  277. 8:31. However, Gojo's mental state at that
  278. 8:33time did not mature in tandem with his
  279. 8:35strength. Amidst the applause of the
  280. 8:37Star Religious Group, he asked Geto if
  281. 8:38they should wipe them all out. The
  282. 8:40official fanbook states it clearly.
  283. 8:43He asked Geto because back then, Gojo
  284. 8:45used Geto's judgment as his moral
  285. 8:47compass, so he always listened to Geto's
  286. 8:49nagging.
  287. 8:51But by this point, Geto's strength could
  288. 8:53no longer keep up with Gojo's pace.
  289. 8:55Geto's perception could no longer remain
  290. 8:57on the same frequency as his either. As
  291. 8:58Geto spiraled into pain, unable to
  292. 9:00change reality despite his best efforts
  293. 9:02, Gojo stood on the glorious peak, no
  294. 9:04longer seeing the view at the mountain's
  295. 9:06foot, no longer empathizing with his
  296. 9:08friend's despair. As for Geto, because
  297. 9:10he spent his days alone exorcising
  298. 9:12curses, he saw Gojo less and less.
  299. 9:14According to his own account, the reason
  300. 9:16was that Satoru could handle missions
  301. 9:18alone, so naturally, they didn't meet.
  302. 9:20But looking closely, even if Gojo only
  303. 9:21had a little free time each day, if Geto
  304. 9:23really wanted to talk to his close
  305. 9:25friend, why wouldn't there be time? The
  306. 9:27answer actually lies in the widening gap
  307. 9:29in their strength. Geto wore a look of
  308. 9:30disappointment, and there was even a
  309. 9:32panel showing that Satoru had become the
  310. 9:34strongest. So the reason they met less
  311. 9:36often was largely due to Geto resisting
  312. 9:38that growing disparity. Because he
  313. 9:39values strength and his place in his
  314. 9:41best friend's heart, he intentionally
  315. 9:43keeps his distance, remaining the person
  316. 9:45who understands Gojo the most. He also
  317. 9:47knows that Gojo increasingly adheres to
  318. 9:49the philosophy that power is supreme. It
  319. 9:51could be said that Geto's solitude was
  320. 9:52his own choice, and one he could not
  321. 9:54avoid.
  322. 9:56Because Gojo's power literally made them
  323. 9:58no longer the same species, even though
  324. 10:00Gojo still went on all kinds of missions
  325. 10:02with Geto after becoming the strongest.
  326. 10:05The two of them still grew further apart
  327. 10:07, as this is the difference between a
  328. 10:09flower and a human.
  329. 10:10Then Yuki appears and has a profound
  330. 10:12conversation with Geto.
  331. 10:14This quirky beauty was a senior at the
  332. 10:16time, reaching special grade status
  333. 10:18before both Geto and Gojo.
  334. 10:20But Yuki barely accepted any missions,
  335. 10:22choosing instead to wander abroad.
  336. 10:24Therefore, before Gojo truly matured,
  337. 10:26the number one combatant on the good
  338. 10:28side was always this tall, blonde lady.
  339. 10:31The fact that Yuki could ignore all
  340. 10:33orders or pressure from the jujutsu
  341. 10:35higher-ups to wander alone proves that
  342. 10:36special grade strength can bypass all
  343. 10:38dogmas and factions without any risk.
  344. 10:40When placed alongside Geto's inner
  345. 10:42motivation, it shows a massive
  346. 10:43discrepancy. In reality, Geto also
  347. 10:45possesses special grade strength. He
  348. 10:47could have completely ignored the
  349. 10:48missions assigned by his superiors to
  350. 10:50live the life he wanted. But Geto was
  351. 10:52trapped in his own moral code of
  352. 10:53protecting the weak.
  353. 10:55What needs to be discussed here is
  354. 10:56Geto's inner motivation. It was not from
  355. 10:58the bottom of his heart that he wanted
  356. 11:00to eliminate curses and protect humanity
  357. 11:02, but rather from the dogmatic morality
  358. 11:04and values he was raised with. Those
  359. 11:06external shackles pulled him like an ox
  360. 11:08, day after day forcing him to ingest
  361. 11:09curses that tasted like vomit.
  362. 11:12Morum wrote in "The Life of Man": "True
  363. 11:14human motivation stems from deep within
  364. 11:16, from the pursuit of joy and interest.
  365. 11:18"
  366. 11:20This means that external pressure only
  367. 11:22brings about short-lived actions.
  368. 11:24Only love and desires born from within
  369. 11:26can create long-lasting, sustainable
  370. 11:28motivation. Anything one can pursue for
  371. 11:30a lifetime is, in essence, an inner
  372. 11:32desire manifested outwardly. Therefore,
  373. 11:34a way of eradicating evil based solely
  374. 11:36on external dogmas like Geto's will
  375. 11:38eventually collapse, having nothing to
  376. 11:39do with Yuki's theory of wiping out all
  377. 11:41non-sorcerers. Geto lacked a core
  378. 11:43internal motivation; relying only on
  379. 11:45external forces meant he was destined to
  380. 11:47never reach his goal. After coming full
  381. 11:49circle, we finally return to Gojo.
  382. 11:51Gojo's motive for performing missions to
  383. 11:53eliminate cursed spirits is very pure,
  384. 11:55straightforward, and clean, much like
  385. 11:57that bald guy.
  386. 11:58He is a hero by hobby, so Gojo's
  387. 12:00internal motivation is clear and
  388. 12:02complete.
  389. 12:04Only people like that can carry out
  390. 12:05their duties after every major incident
  391. 12:07. No one is more suited to be a jujutsu
  392. 12:09sorcerer. And these viewpoints
  393. 12:11throughout Jujutsu Kaisen are neither
  394. 12:13mysterious nor hard to discover.
  395. 12:15The title of Chapter 3 is "For Myself."
  396. 12:18Yaga asks Itadori why he wants to join
  397. 12:20the Technical College. Itadori says it's
  398. 12:22for his grandfather's dying wish, but he
  399. 12:24is rejected by Yaga on the spot.
  400. 12:26Itadori repeats that this was his
  401. 12:28grandfather's wish, so he wants to help
  402. 12:30others.
  403. 12:31Yaga replies, "A relative is also just
  404. 12:33someone else." What he really wanted to
  405. 12:36hear wasn't an external force, but an
  406. 12:37internal motivation.
  407. 12:39Until Itadori gives an answer that
  408. 12:41satisfies him.
  409. 12:42I don't want to regret how I live my
  410. 12:44life. Yaga reaches out his hand. You
  411. 12:46passed.
  412. 12:47This is actually a boomerang effect.
  413. 12:49Yaga was Geto's teacher. Besides Gojo
  414. 12:52and Shoko, he is also one of the people
  415. 12:54who understands Geto best. Ever since
  416. 12:56Geto betrayed them to become a curse
  417. 12:58user, Yaga understood that relying only
  418. 13:00on external pressure cannot sustain a
  419. 13:01sorcerer's character.
  420. 13:03Genuine intent from within is the key to
  421. 13:05maintaining a long-term mindset amidst
  422. 13:07brutal slaughter.
  423. 13:09Returning to Gojo, his true self has
  424. 13:11always thought that being a sorcerer is
  425. 13:13fun, so he has never intended to quit.
  426. 13:15And when going on missions to kill
  427. 13:17monsters becomes an indulgence, working
  428. 13:18until dawn or sleeping for three hours
  429. 13:20doesn't matter. Gojo is simply, on a
  430. 13:22whim, pursuing his own path of enjoyment
  431. 13:24. That's why many people back then
  432. 13:26looked at Gojo's schedule, which was
  433. 13:27like a donkey pulling a millstone, and
  434. 13:29felt sorry for him, thinking the jujutsu
  435. 13:30world was treating him like a beast of
  436. 13:32burden. Actually, there's no need. It's
  437. 13:34simply because he likes to play and is
  438. 13:35passionate about it. You and I have no
  439. 13:37right to strip him of his joy.
  440. 13:40I’ve seen many Jujutsu Kaisen fans on
  441. 13:42TikTok view Gojo’s status as the
  442. 13:44strongest as his ultimate cage. That
  443. 13:46because he is the strongest, he has to
  444. 13:48bear the weight of everything. I don’t
  445. 13:49agree; a person so whimsical that he
  446. 13:51considers himself the honored one in
  447. 13:53heaven and earth can’t be talked about
  448. 13:55in terms of shackles. I just can’t
  449. 13:56accept that. But that is just my own
  450. 13:58personal opinion. You guys can just feel
  451. 14:00it for yourselves. And it is precisely
  452. 14:02because of this keyword "whimsical" that
  453. 14:04Nanami trusts Gojo but does not respect
  454. 14:06him.
  455. 14:07To be honest, I do trust and believe in
  456. 14:09this man quite a bit.
  457. 14:11>> But I don’t respect you at all.
  458. 14:13>> And in chapter 236, he chose the
  459. 14:15definition that both he and Haibara
  460. 14:17silently understood between them.
  461. 14:19You never fought for the advancement of
  462. 14:21sorcery or to protect anything at all.
  463. 14:24You are just a hedonist who does
  464. 14:25everything to satisfy yourself.
  465. 14:27Scenes and dialogue in flashback
  466. 14:29sequences like the airport are supposed
  467. 14:31to be free of any external influence,
  468. 14:33representing purely honest thoughts.
  469. 14:35So in the eyes of Nanami and Haibara,
  470. 14:37Gojo is that hedonist, and he doesn't
  471. 14:40even refute it himself.
  472. 14:42As for the positive highlights of Gojo
  473. 14:44that we see, such as exorcising cursed
  474. 14:46spirits, protecting civilians, and
  475. 14:48handling sorcerers, they are just drops
  476. 14:50of nectar that this self-indulgent
  477. 14:52hedonist spilled while satisfying
  478. 14:54himself. I saw in the comments that some
  479. 14:56people say Gojo finally shed all his
  480. 14:58responsibilities in that final scene,
  481. 14:59and only then was he able to be himself
  482. 15:01for once. Actually, Gojo has always been
  483. 15:04himself.
  484. 15:06It’s just that he has been truly lonely
  485. 15:08for 11 years because his joy and pain
  486. 15:09could only be shared with those of his
  487. 15:11own caliber.
  488. 15:12It is also because of that power that he
  489. 15:14was born with an insurmountable
  490. 15:16dimensional gap between him and every
  491. 15:17other existence. Except for Sukuna.
  492. 15:20Just as you cannot share joy or sorrow
  493. 15:22with an ant, he could not make ordinary
  494. 15:24people understand the world he sees,
  495. 15:26thinks of, and feels.
  496. 15:28So Gojo ultimately lost.
  497. 15:31But he truly escaped from that
  498. 15:32loneliness. He unleashes every technique
  499. 15:35honed a thousand times, every skill
  500. 15:36accumulated over a lifetime, along with
  501. 15:38his instincts and intuition, all on the
  502. 15:40battlefield, hoping to convey it all to
  503. 15:42Sukuna. Because in his eyes, only Sukuna
  504. 15:44is of the same species as him. In
  505. 15:46layman's terms, in Gojo's eyes, Sukuna
  506. 15:48is the only one who truly counts as a
  507. 15:51person. Everything else is just grass
  508. 15:53and flowers, mere collateral damage to
  509. 15:55be scattered during their combat.
  510. 15:57That is the way Gojo, a god of the
  511. 15:59modern world, communicates with another
  512. 16:01god.
  513. 16:02Yet he gave everything, while the god on
  514. 16:04his level held something back, so he
  515. 16:06didn't achieve the same sense of
  516. 16:08fulfillment.
  517. 16:10That is why he said, "Because my
  518. 16:11strength wasn't enough to make Sukuna go
  519. 16:13all out, I feel sorry for him."
  520. 16:16Meaning, you helped me escape the
  521. 16:18loneliness that bound me for a lifetime
  522. 16:20, yet I couldn't do the same for you, so
  523. 16:22I feel a bit ashamed.
  524. 16:23But in truth, Sukuna's mindset is a
  525. 16:25level higher; he doesn't rely on such
  526. 16:28things, so the "strongest" title never
  527. 16:30shackled Gojo, for he never had any
  528. 16:32shackles to begin with.
  529. 16:34What the title of "the strongest"
  530. 16:35brought Gojo was true loneliness. And
  531. 16:38throughout his time as the strongest,
  532. 16:39Gojo was always trying to connect with
  533. 16:41this world on his own.
  534. 16:43But he failed.
  535. 16:44How can someone with god-like power
  536. 16:46maintain a human form and a basic way of
  537. 16:48thinking?
  538. 16:49Gojo chose a different path.
  539. 16:51The Gojo of the Hidden Inventory arc was
  540. 16:53arrogant and annoying, sure, but that
  541. 16:55playfulness was the spirit of youth, the
  542. 16:57freedom of having Geto to back him up.
  543. 17:00He didn't need to act out or be
  544. 17:02flamboyant to get attention, because by
  545. 17:04his side was the only person who saw him
  546. 17:06as Gojo Satoru, not just the possessor
  547. 17:08of the Six Eyes. He had a natural, equal
  548. 17:10emotional connection that he didn't have
  549. 17:12to struggle to find.
  550. 17:14After Geto betrayed him and died, the 28
  551. 17:16-year-old Gojo ingrained that flamboyant
  552. 17:18persona into his behavior: always late,
  553. 17:20leaving early, giving his junior Nanami
  554. 17:22the irreverent nickname "Nanamin,"
  555. 17:24writing notes and having students
  556. 17:26deliver apology gifts, and intentionally
  557. 17:28making faces and grandiose gestures.
  558. 17:31This kind of clowning around is his only
  559. 17:33way to break through that godly filter.
  560. 17:35His immense power had, from the very
  561. 17:37beginning, erected a thick wall between
  562. 17:39him and the world. Those in the jujutsu
  563. 17:41world first see him as the ultimate
  564. 17:43weapon capable of flipping the world
  565. 17:45upside down. The safety net of the
  566. 17:47jujutsu society. The anchor that
  567. 17:49resolves every single problem. Just not
  568. 17:51the human being known as Gojo Satoru.
  569. 17:53With power like a god's, ordinary people
  570. 17:55fear him, superiors tread carefully
  571. 17:58around him, juniors are intimidated by
  572. 18:00him, and enemies are terrified of him—
  573. 18:02everyone keeps a safe distance.
  574. 18:05His goofy, unconventional, and
  575. 18:07flamboyant style is the hammer he uses
  576. 18:09to smash that wall himself.
  577. 18:12He acts silly, acts childish, and
  578. 18:13intentionally breaks the composure
  579. 18:15expected of the strongest just to tell
  580. 18:17everyone, "I am not some high-and-mighty
  581. 18:19deity."
  582. 18:20"I am just a normal person, with
  583. 18:22emotions, capable of mistakes and acting
  584. 18:24like a fool."
  585. 18:26Only when he lowers himself to clown
  586. 18:28around to diffuse the oppressive aura of
  587. 18:30the strongest can his students tease him
  588. 18:32, joke with him, talk to him normally,
  589. 18:34put an arm around his shoulder, or call
  590. 18:36him unreliable to his face.
  591. 18:38It is his clowning that breaks the
  592. 18:40distance created by his strength, much
  593. 18:42like the signature smile of a jester
  594. 18:43that reaches everywhere.
  595. 18:46It is the only bridge he leaves for
  596. 18:48himself, for this world, and for other
  597. 18:50sorcerers after no one else could walk
  598. 18:51alongside him.
  599. 18:53The Six Eyes and Limitless technique
  600. 18:55meant that, from birth, he was never on
  601. 18:57the same dimension as anyone else.
  602. 18:59He can see through all cause and effect
  603. 19:02, instantly heal any wound, and
  604. 19:03effortlessly kill any enemy.
  605. 19:06Between him and ordinary people, and
  606. 19:08even 99%of sorcerers, there is an
  607. 19:10unbridgeable chasm, so he can only look
  608. 19:12down on the masses from the perspective
  609. 19:14of a god.
  610. 19:16He can protect the lives of the masses
  611. 19:18but can never truly empathize with them
  612. 19:19as an equal.
  613. 19:21He can never make others understand his
  614. 19:23own loneliness.
  615. 19:24He cherishes the flowers but never
  616. 19:26expects them to understand him.
  617. 19:28This isn't coldness; it's just something
  618. 19:30he cannot do, and it is his preordained
  619. 19:33fate.
  620. 19:34Yet, despite possessing god-like
  621. 19:36absolute power, Gojo never became a
  622. 19:38second Sukuna.
  623. 19:40For Sukuna, the weak are merely toys to
  624. 19:42be trampled upon at will. But Gojo, even
  625. 19:44while standing at the peak, always
  626. 19:46maintained the line of not harming the
  627. 19:48innocent and not trampling on life. That
  628. 19:50line originated when he was 17.
  629. 19:52From his initial aspiration while
  630. 19:54walking alongside Geto, to the last
  631. 19:56shred of his reason as a human being.
  632. 19:58Even if that kindness feels a bit
  633. 20:00distant, and even if the nature of that
  634. 20:02protection is self-gratifying, he has
  635. 20:04never cast it aside. I previously used
  636. 20:06Yuki as an example, meaning Gojo could
  637. 20:08have chosen not to be a workhorse and
  638. 20:10instead wandered freely for life; no one
  639. 20:12could have stopped him. But regardless
  640. 20:14of his initial intention, Gojo still
  641. 20:16carried the flag of justice for the
  642. 20:17sorcery world all by himself. "Judge a
  643. 20:19gentleman by his deeds, not his heart"—
  644. 20:21judging by actions rather than
  645. 20:22intentions. Nothing fits Gojo better
  646. 20:24than this.
  647. 20:25An outlier who lives only to satisfy
  648. 20:27himself. That is the core, most
  649. 20:29authentic background color of his
  650. 20:31personality. It is the ultimate defining
  651. 20:33trait for Gojo, and also where the
  652. 20:35entire community misunderstands him the
  653. 20:37most. Everyone labels him.
  654. 20:39The savior, the best teacher, the gentle
  655. 20:42strongman, the arrogant lone wolf.
  656. 20:44Everyone expects him to be a perfect god
  657. 20:46carrying the entire world. But Gojo has
  658. 20:48never lived for the expectations of
  659. 20:50others. Everything he does, whether it's
  660. 20:52reforming the sorcery world, training
  661. 20:54students, saving civilians, or fighting
  662. 20:56to the death with Sukuna, the core
  663. 20:58motivation is forever only one. "I like
  664. 21:00it, I want to do it, it gives me a sense
  665. 21:02of satisfaction"—that's why he hates
  666. 21:04preaching, hates being bound by rules,
  667. 21:06and hates being defined by others '
  668. 21:08expectations. He has never been a
  669. 21:10perfect god, nor is he a selfish bastard
  670. 21:12.
  671. 21:14He is an idealist, possessing the power
  672. 21:16of a god but still trapped within a
  673. 21:18human body.
  674. 21:19A youth standing at the top of the world
  675. 21:21, yet forever all alone.
  676. 21:24An outcast through and through, unbound
  677. 21:26by any rules, living only by his own
  678. 21:28desires.
  679. 21:29Yet, this eccentric who does everything
  680. 21:31just to satisfy himself brought the only
  681. 21:33ray of hope to the Jujutsu world.
  682. 21:36You all know I've long specialized in
  683. 21:38videos analyzing power levels and major
  684. 21:40showdowns. Honestly, I'm not great at
  685. 21:42writing character depth analyses, but
  686. 21:44because it's Gojo, and precisely because
  687. 21:46it's Gojo, I wrote it anyway and
  688. 21:47dedicated the second episode of this new
  689. 21:50series to him. Well, since there’s a one
  690. 21:52, there has to be a two. I poured a lot
  691. 21:54of heart and soul into writing this. If
  692. 21:56you watch it to the end, please give me
  693. 21:58a like and subscribe to support me. For
  694. 21:59the next episode, let me know in the
  695. 22:01comments if you want more power analyses
  696. 22:03, this style of character study, or
  697. 22:04which character you'd like to see next.
  698. 22:06See you all later.
