every once in a while i remember about ao no flag and i take 999 psychic damage thinking about how we never got to see taichi and touma get together
listen to me. i don't care what gege did or did not say NEVER talk some shit about gojo only being "actually" happy around geto in front of me. that man raised megumi by himself when he could have chosen not to. he frequently chased nanami around and teased him when he could have chosen to stop in the face of lackluster reactions. throughout the manga he had faith in his students, believing they would surpass him. part of gojo will always be alienated due to the structure of jujutsu society, and you are well within your rights to assume that geto was the most important person in his life, but do not undermine the people around him, the extent to which they cared for him, the trust that they placed in his plans, and the trust that HE placed in THEM to be able to carry out said plans.
just. just don't act like gojo's capacity to love started and ended with geto. that's fucked up.

rereading tokyo ghoul and man Amon was just going through random bullshit in the early chapters 😭😭 they killed his weird as fuck mentor like ten chapters in for the plot. they got him questioning his entire worldview because of one (☝) emo teenager in a mask. they had my guy working with a pipsqueak who sucked out and chewed up a police officer's eardrum + proceeded to explain the concept of body stitching (with visuals btw) at the ass crack of dawn. then they had him go seek help from his father who was revealed to be just your regular child slaughtering church guy. they set him up for a tsundere romance and then killed him off what the hell kind of sitcom is this????
parallels, yes, but one is a disguised betrayal :')
People who hate Frodo Baggins are my enemy. "He didn't do anything and was useless"--yeah, okay, so what you're not understanding is that he was the sacrificial lamb. He endured physical, mental, and emotional torment that got worse and worse as his will broke. Everyone knew this. EVERYONE KNEW THIS. That's why everyone was devastated about it. Because Frodo was the most innocent among them, that was the entire point. He represented ordinary peaceful people being destroyed by the horrors of war. And as a hobbit he also represented some of the last vestiges of magic in what was basically a post magic apocalypse.
Frodo was basically an innocent puppy thrown into the Torment Nexus so that EVERYONE ELSE could maybe have a hope of surviving. And he did that willingly. HE DID IT OF HIS OWN FREE WILL, KNOWING IT WOULD RUIN HIM.
Frodo haters won't see the light of heaven

"he didn't have any redeeming qualities" it's almost like.....that's the point. it's almost like a big part of his arc is literally that he's wandering around without a purpose, being cruel for the sake of it without even realising, as if he's desperately trying to prove himself to the whole world. it's almost like sieun himself recognised that which is why he couldn't bring himself to harm beomseok till the end. it's almost like he was mourning the loss of not one but TWO friends at the end. it's almost like being abused is a cycle that can easily tip a person into a pool of negative emotions which is incredibly hard to crawl out of. it's almost like a child will internalize the way they were treated and be incredibly insecure as a result. it's almost like jealousy stemming from inferiority will cause people to hate themselves more than anything and they'll project it onto others a lot of times. it's almost like beomseok's a fucking gray character not meant to fit into your classic tropes. if you want to hate simply for the sake of hating just go and read the damn webtoon. you can have your one dimensional characters and play with them.
nobody is denying that he fucked up royally, nor is anyone trying to provide a reasoning for it. we're simply being given an explanation of how his surroundings shaped him, how even if he escaped that pattern it was too little too late, and now he'll spend the rest of his life with crushing guilt on his shoulders. it's something real that occurs and it sucks for everyone involved and that is why it is MILES better than just using him as a blatant tool to move the plot along (which is what the webtoon did). you're still free to hate him but atleast watch the damn show properly.
“we need more complex male characters in korean dramas!!” you couldn’t even handle him.
every single day the realisation that yjh is literally the physical embodiment of hsy's love, hope, and desperation hits me like a truck and i die a little inside. like. she's spent lifetimes crafting him by pulling him out of the deepest corners of her heart, and even if he tries to become cold or unfeeling he will ALWAYS, first and foremost, be an existence made up of her purest emotions which means they get each other like nobody else, not even kim dokja :((
two characters who only ever know how to chase after someone that keeps slipping away, leaving them with the crushing weight of being lonely and INCOMPLETE, and whatever comfort they can find they find in each other's arms.
or. in other words. two characters who give pieces of themselves away for eternity without a word and are caught so off guard when they're together and directing that devotion at each other, making this the first time THEY are ever someone else's priority.
AUGHHEHHEHE 💔💔
