Hope everyone enjoyed the video!!! Regarding how I pronounce Geto, I admit my pronunciation isn't really correct, however as far as I know in english the way we say "geh" is actually impossible to say it Japanese. Also I don't know why I called Yuki Yuko lol
I also speak Japanese relatively well and I have no idea what you're on about dude xD Why are you adding sounds where they don't belong? げ is "ge" and と is "to". I have Japanese friends as well and not a single one pronounces it like you do. Awesome vid btw! Edit: Just for kicks I asked GPT-4 if げと could ever be pronounced "Geitou" and it answered: "The Japanese kana "げと" is typically romanized as "geto," following standard pronunciation rules where "げ" is "ge" and "と" is "to." The pronunciation "Geitou" is unconventional and not aligned with standard Japanese pronunciation or romanization practices. Japanese pronunciation is generally straightforward, with each kana representing a specific sound or combination of sounds, and there are established systems for romanization such as Hepburn, Kunrei-shiki, and Nihon-shiki. None of these standard systems would render "げと" as "Geitou." "
I think its very fascinating to see how Geto is "living his best life" in zero. He acts like a disney villain, takes pictures with his _family_ and has so much fun fighting Yuta and doing his bad guy routine, down to his last momments he smiles wholeheartedly because he *truly* has no regrets
I think geto is just straight up THE best written character in jjk. The ones who come close is nanami and mahito depending on the character archetype you prefer. But when it comes to tragedy and writing no one else is fleshed out like him
15:13 My theory is that what Gojo said to Geto is the same thing he said to Yuta. "You are my best friend, my one and only". Which is why Geto smiles softly and says that Gojo should at least curse him in the end...
I saw somewhere that both Japanese and English voice actors were told exactly what Gojo told Geto so they could act a genuine reaction as Geto’s last words. I think the English voice actor confirmed that they were only three words. IDK THOUGH don’t take my word I read it on a wiki😭😭
@@yohannien REAL I rlly think it was something affectionate, not necessarily romantic but def something like “I’ll miss you”. Geto DID blush in the manga so
Okay, I didn't feel that emotional seeing their relationship in the anime and felt sad for him, but the way you articulated their bond made me tear up 😢
it s good that you have to search youtube for a guy to reimagine the story so you can actually enjoy it. this anime had so much potential but is ruined by it s most op villain: storytelling
Geto is by far my favorite jjk character. His development throughout Hidden Inventory/Premature Death is tragic, but at the same time, very understandable. He was doomed to break at some point. The whole argument about egoism in jjk's world isn't really about "selfishness = strength", but about the need for your ideals and motivation to come from within, not from the outside. Doing something because "it's the right thing to do" and doing it because "you know deep within that it is the right thing to do" are two completely different things. Geto's ideals at the beginning of Hidden Inventory are the former. He exorcises curses because protecting the weak is the duty of the strong, but that's something that comes from outside of himself, it's what would be expected of someone in his position. He doesn't really have a deep conviction about it. And that's why once confronted by the ugliness of the people he was protecting, his ideals slowly begin to crack. Since he didn't have any deeply rooted ideals to keep himself straight and his only friend, for whom he once was a moral compass, had reached a level where he was not needed and a level he could never attain, he had no one by his side to share the grief, hatred and depression with. Then, when he was at his lowest, both Haibara's death and Mimiko and Nanako's treatment by the non-sorcerers of the village were the last two straws for him to break away from his previous ideals. Two innocent children, whose only "sin" was being born with a talent that regular people could not understand being thrown in a cage by them. The villagers would not listen to a word of Geto and wanted him to get rid of the two, all the while he knew they (read non-sorcerers) were the cause of their own suffering (curses), rather than the kids. Seeing the worst of the worst of mankind and being forced to deal with it constantly led him to a point where he was at least a bit justified in saying "fuck it". I don't condone anything he did afterwards, but I can understand it.
Pretty painfully underrated comment I swear to God.., absolutely love the way you looked through his character arc while also coming to tie together strings that most people in the community tend to overlook and blantly ignore, pretty mastered it even !! Man I just *wish* from the dephs of my heart that poeple would just come to understand his character more than naively jumping into conclusions without any bias or research, completely casting aside the painful and miserable process he had to go through to reach the inevitable breaking point..
That's basically what happened to him, yeah. It's interesting how there are characters who go through the same thing, seeing the worst of humanity like Higuruma. He constantly deals with the worst of humanity, although he experiences the unfairness of the Japanese justice system. When he finally breaks, he loses himself for a bit until he meets Yuji. Afterwards, he's reminded of his morals and convictions.
because no normal person is simply born with the deepest conviction of "protect everyone who exists just because". Thats an idealistic mindset often found in japanese/asian media and can more often than not be self destructive as opposed to Geto's regular destructive.
What hurts most about rikkos death is that because of tojis heightened senses he most definitely overheard geto and rikkos conversation but still killed her cause he's an elite bag chaser
It really is the most confusing thing that Toji is allegedly in heaven vs the hell he richly deserves. I love Toji, but he is not a good person or father.
@@RageQuitMoshI read that in his FIRST death he went to hell. It wasn’t until he was resurrected and killed himself for Megumi that he died and went to Heaven. So you can say tHeOreTicAllY that he alr paid for his sins the first time he died. And tbh he didn’t ask to be brought back to life.
I’m not a Toji glazer but people forget that Toji forgot about his family not because he was a evil father, JJK has a lot of Buddhism in its story. He became the embodiment of something a lot of Monks try. Having no attachments in the words of Gege “The One Who Left it all Behind”
Geto's transformation is a firm sign that Jujutsu High has not ONE teacher with a serviceable brain. The administration of everything in JH is horrendous to a degree that completely explains their abysmal performance at the Shibuya.
@@toucan2227i mean i agree for the most part regarding jujutsu high as a whole being rather incompetent, but sukuna is the oldest most traditional character in the story yet the strongest, most independent and most capable

It's a shame that he never really honed his skills any further, instead focusing more on his ideals than his actual growth as both a person and a jujutsu sorcerer.
That’s what makes his character all the more tragic, and the storyline in general. It’s like wondering what could have been had these things not happened to geto, or gojo
@@understanding77tbf he was always gonna be driven crazy by his ct gege stated jt… so sad but at least he would’ve had time to develop it before going fully crazy…
To see Geto fall into this downward spiral genuinely hurt me. He is one if my favorite characters in Jjk, and watching this video clarified a few things i couldn't catch on. Thank you for making this video! (Is it wimpy to say this made me cry??)
Most video about Geto talk about parallel between him and Gojo, but I want to talk about parallel between him and Nanami. Both change their live after Hibara death with Nanami quit, yet he come back because a simple "Thanks you" he find joy in helping non-sorcerer something Geto never realize. If Nanami talk no jusu him, he might even successfully change Geto's mind.
Well, Nanami and Geto lived very different lives. Geto's ability is what really helped throw him into insanity. The curses he eats are revolting, the worst taste in the world, so what degraded his mind was constantly submitting himself to this to help those who hated his kind. Geto saw the worst of humanity while Nanami saw a glimpse of the best of it. I don't think a cashier giving Nanami bread cancels out Geto being contracted to kill two kids because they were "a little weird".
The Gojo x Geto friendship really is the sweetest kind. Two people who love each other despite their differences, who cherish the other’s being even when things must come to an end. Imagining the heartbreak that Gojo felt knowing that Geto needed to die… and that he had to be the one to kill him… But in a twisted way, Geto’s death allowed him to be relinquished of his convictions and psychological suffering.
The saddest thing of it all is that Gojo never got over it, even before killing him. His last genuine happiness was 11 years ago, so for 11 years he just has been going through it
His story is so sad, the way everything changed so quick is still difficult to accept. He’s such an interesting character, and although his morals obviously turned evil, you can see his perspective. Seeing his backstory, you’d never expect it from someone as kind and reasonable as Geto to end up the way he did. I wish someone could’ve saved him, maybe have a redemption near the end at least, but he still didn’t regret his choice. It’s sad he really didn’t have much screen time at all, he technically was never even in the show. Using his body for Kenjaku is really just Gege being evil and trying to make Gojo suffer more. It’s just emotional damage, using the face of his best friend for the new villain, when in reality he’s been long dead. 😕
I genuinly watched this the entire way through and thought, danm this guy must be in the millions at least, and i see the 5.2k... you deserve like 100x that
This was so helpful for any confusion I had throughout the whole series. The clarification made me feel even more sad about their bond and how much it has changed from the circumstances. Geto is such an incredible character though!
The way you used narration along with the scenes, like the part when Geto and Riko are talking and Toji kills her and you paused as the scene continues just gives the it so much depth. It’s genuinely amazing how something so simple can change the way things are seen. Others might not think it this way, but I am so glad I took my time to watch this vid. So thank you. Edit: I occasionally get notifications because people keep liking my comment and through out these 13 days since I posted this comment I have seen the number of likes spike from 0 to 120 this is the most amount of likes I have gotten so thank you
This is the first vid I’ve seen from you and in the 16 minutes and 26 seconds of watching I had already pressed subscribe I hope to see more from you in the future
I really like the fact that even though the ideals of geto and gojo are presented to be like parallels, they are both somewhat closely trying to do the same thing, changing the jujutsu world because it is rotten.
The way youre able to convey everything in such an easily digestible way AND using such amazingly thought out descriptive imagery to show both Gojo and Geto's bond, his ideologies, and just his whole character is so fuckint amazing dude
Geto is my favorite jjk character, thank you for this video. My people don't understand this. But you have explained it in such a good and simple way that everyone can understand. Thank you so much for this video.
I will always respect Geto and his ambitions. Walking alone towards a goal you believe in, no matter how ugly it appears to everyone else, will always be the right choice. You're only wrong until you win.
I will certainly root for him if not for his genocide..... I mean sorcerers and normies are both human right? And not all sorcerers are good people like those jujutsu higher-ups, and that's also mean not all normies are downright evil like he believes. And so he can spares the good natured human then. They are SSR in rl but still exist anyway.
@@gracequeeney3399As Yuki had said, its just the easiest way to go about it. What's the point of trying to help everyone when they won't ever realize what you're doing is just? What's the point of finding those good hearted humans when the excess is ignorant and thus guilty via association? Its better (in Geto's eyes) to start from scratch rather than to help everyone, even if the latter were to be the best outcome BECAUSE its easier
geto is one of if not my favourite character. it saddens me so much that things went the way they did. the first few episodes of season 2 are my favourite because i LOVE seeing both him and gojo especially interacting with each other. one day ill cosplay geto
Honestly, perfect character analysis, I agree with every aspect! Geto personifies every major aspect of the whole manga / anime: the strength, the sacrifice, the tragedy, the impossibility of it. I love it. And Geto (before his solution became genocide)
The thing is, Geto is technically right. Jujitsu high is so fd up. The higher ups couldn’t care less about the lives of sorcerers and the world is also fd up. It’s just the way he went about helping those issues was wrong
Thats the way sukuna and kenjaku like it, they were behind the scence with the sole purpose to create hell and the worst part is that they effectively won
It is genuinely heart breaking to see how much love these two had for one another as comrades on the front lines and close friends. Just to be forced against each other. The world of JJK is brutal
This video helped me better understand s2 of jjk, and especially getou. I love his character and just needed a better explanation of what happened post-Riko incident when he changed and this did exactly that. Thank you
Wonderfully done video! It was a really nice summary/explanation, it was done beautifully. I personally thought the hidden inventory arch was kind of confusing so this cleared it up for me, thanks! (Geto's my one of my favs too)
I get a feeling itadori could have made geto see something new. He was someone who didn’t even know of sorcery then when he gained power he chose to use it knowing he’d just die. But geto never got that.
Excellent analysis bro. It summarizes perfectly the relationship while keeping it concise and entertaining. And the closing scene is excellent, the choice of music, the editing, everything is fantastic. Amazing work! Keep it up!
There is indeed a theory as to what gojo said to geto and it’s derived from the opening 2 “ao no sumika” there is a line that says: It is the unvoiced voice that says “We’ll see each other again, won’t we?”
That is just what Tatsuya Kitani thinks the last words were, but in the JJK 0 light novel (written by gege) the last words were described as such "embarrassing words that were never said before in their student days" and there was a line that said "there was something that NEVER changed, geto suguru the worst curse user but to gojo satoru he was _____" censored. Gojo’s eng VA said that it was 3 words in english, so yeah it's most likely to be "i love you" wether it be platonic or romantic
@@uda4699 yeah and it makes sense for "i love you" to be the words because gege said the words are in JJK 0, who else said those words? Yuta to Rika and the JJK 0 director talked about how Gojo and Geto were a parallel to Yuta and Rika and how love could have helped them grow but it came a curse
I think the greater point of early geto is solidified more by Mahito Corrupting Junpei. This kind of proves that curse users can kind of come from purely mundane parents. Like a Harry Potter mudblood phenomenon. This makes the existence of curse users more of a roll of the dice and shows that despite what gojo said; every sorcerer is the chosen one. He lost touch with reality to find an easy path out of trauma. He abandoned responsibility for convenience.
I really wish they lived longer and together but maybe it was meant to be like it to give JJK more depth (specially regarding YUTA and GOJO) And your articulated their relationship beautifully,love the video❤️
Read the lyrics of Hidden inventory opening song (Ao no sumika i think), the lyrics tell us Gojo last words to Geto. For those lazy to look for it, it was something among the lines of: Will we meet again?
Yuji is closer to Geto as he experienced the same stuff as Geto but the the difference is that Yuji had people helping him through the rough time while Geto had none and Yuji had experience in non jujustu world
one thing I see a lot of people miss but is a really nice detail is that when riko dies and the association is clapping we see geto in a blue light and gojo in red lighting showing that geto absorbed all the info that just happened to him like blue while gojo repels all the info and only focuses on getting stronger like red
It's actually very similar in ideals & execution to the Castlevania Series on Neflix with Dracula. Geto's perception of the world was PERMANENTLY broken. While Gojo & other characters can rationalize the cruelty & unfairness of the situation... he could NOT. There was no more innocence or delusional thinking left in him. Geto was not stronger than Gojo, but he was more intelligent. Even worse, he was intelligent enough to understand that REGARDLESS of his own personal strength & and potential... that in the end, nothing would change. The status quo would remain the same. Why bother getting stronger? So, not being able to pretend (or self-actualize/rationalize) that he was a "good guy", he took on the role as a "villian" while waiting for someone to put him out of his misery. Even while playing "villian", the civilian casualties were relatively low, aside from his 1st 100 people incident. I believe he himself realized he couldn't perform genocide either after that. So as Alucard said to Dracula, "This isnt a war, it's the world's longest suicide note." Geto was begging for someone to end his existence. Someone to see & understand. He thought Gojo of ALL people, his BEST FRIEND, would understand. But Gojo didn't. He couldn't even sympathize. He took the Genocide Plan at face value, not looking any deeper into it. So in Geto's final moments, he was kind, but in a way, LOOKING DOWN on Gojo, for not understanding him. My headcannon is that in Geto's final moments, Gojo finally agreed with Geto & admitted their actions were futile and gave him some peace. That's why we'll never hear THAT part of the conversation, because it would be akin to breaking the 4th wall. God's chosen righteous angel can't EVER be caught breaking bread with the Devil, & admitting this is all a game we play.
15:13 Gege stated that what gojo said to veto was something he said in jjk 0 which makes people think he said “you are my best friend. The only one I have.”
This is one of the best, if not THE best, takes on Geto and him basically losing his mind, that I’ve seen. Just like you mentioned, while he was losing his grip on sanity, he was separated from the few people who could’ve possible helped him, especially Gojo who was focusing on making himself stronger. It’s really sad what happened to Geto and I really wish someone would have gotten to him and helped him. I also think this could be reflecting how this happens in real life; serious back and forth issues that cause people to descend into madness and they end up at an untimely end because no one was really there to see what was going on and help
i like how they let us see how he really just spiraled down into a descent of madness, letting the viewers actually be able to see how he thinks and how he justifies himself, it just makes the character so much more realistic and understandable, even if you don't agree with them.
Hope everyone enjoyed the video!!!

It’s sad he really didn’t have much screen time at all, he technically was never even in the show. Using his body for Kenjaku is really just Gege being evil and trying to make Gojo suffer more. It’s just emotional damage, using the face of his best friend for the new villain, when in reality he’s been long dead. 😕
I genuinly watched this the entire way through and thought, danm this guy must be in the millions at least, and i see the 5.2k... you deserve like 100x that
This was so helpful for any confusion I had throughout the whole series. The clarification made me feel even more sad about their bond and how much it has changed from the circumstances. Geto is such an incredible character though!
The way you used narration along with the scenes, like the part when Geto and Riko are talking and Toji kills her and you paused as the scene continues just gives the it so much depth. It’s genuinely amazing how something so simple can change the way things are seen. Others might not think it this way, but I am so glad I took my time to watch this vid. So thank you.
Edit: I occasionally get notifications because people keep liking my comment and through out these 13 days since I posted this comment I have seen the number of likes spike from 0 to 120 this is the most amount of likes I have gotten so thank you
This is the first vid I’ve seen from you and in the 16 minutes and 26 seconds of watching I had already pressed subscribe I hope to see more from you in the future
I really like the fact that even though the ideals of geto and gojo are presented to be like parallels, they are both somewhat closely trying to do the same thing, changing the jujutsu world because it is rotten.
The way youre able to convey everything in such an easily digestible way AND using such amazingly thought out descriptive imagery to show both Gojo and Geto's bond, his ideologies, and just his whole character is so fuckint amazing dude
Geto is my favorite jjk character, thank you for this video. My people don't understand this. But you have explained it in such a good and simple way that everyone can understand. Thank you so much for this video.
Great analysis dude, Getos downfall is Shakespearean level writing fr.
Really enjoyed this and look forward to more content
Geto’s arc in Hidden Inventory was what really roped me into JJK, this video helps prove to me that he is honestly peak
this video was fucking beautiful man
Thank you 🙏
Stop saying Gayto please
He a little fruity tho ngl
😂
No
@@whoisdeme lol
This literally makes me laugh for weeks.
I will always respect Geto and his ambitions. Walking alone towards a goal you believe in, no matter how ugly it appears to everyone else, will always be the right choice. You're only wrong until you win.
I will certainly root for him if not for his genocide..... I mean sorcerers and normies are both human right? And not all sorcerers are good people like those jujutsu higher-ups, and that's also mean not all normies are downright evil like he believes. And so he can spares the good natured human then. They are SSR in rl but still exist anyway.
@@gracequeeney3399As Yuki had said, its just the easiest way to go about it. What's the point of trying to help everyone when they won't ever realize what you're doing is just? What's the point of finding those good hearted humans when the excess is ignorant and thus guilty via association? Its better (in Geto's eyes) to start from scratch rather than to help everyone, even if the latter were to be the best outcome BECAUSE its easier
"Geto reaches our his hand to Riko. As she reaches-"
*gets shot in the head*
I knew it was coming but it still startled me lol
This video is a masterpiece… stand proud you can cook
the production quality is insane.
the montage at the end made me tear up a bit, i loved this video sm.
You hear the applause twice, once while he's showering, and the other when it starts raining.
getos downwards spiral literally breaks my heart aghhh. love this video !!
I love how simple & concise the breakdown was, you did a great job constrocting a thorough & yet understandable analysis 👏
geto is one of if not my favourite character. it saddens me so much that things went the way they did. the first few episodes of season 2 are my favourite because i LOVE seeing both him and gojo especially interacting with each other. one day ill cosplay geto
manic
your pfp
Very very well said man. Love your narration and techniques you used through-out this video. Will be subbing
the narration for this video is perfect. amazing storytelling, please keep up your content!
Honestly, perfect character analysis, I agree with every aspect! Geto personifies every major aspect of the whole manga / anime: the strength, the sacrifice, the tragedy, the impossibility of it. I love it. And Geto (before his solution became genocide)
I don’t think I’ll ever recover from geto and Gojos bond. It did so much in so little time and had such an impact it’s crazy. I love it soo much
i love videos like these that analyze and break down characters, plus reading comments that back it up are so lovely like YES I WILL READ ALDAT🔥🔥
to be honest, the season 2 hidden inventory was insane, seeing how he say hes tired. If the students were strong he wont have to do alone
I loved and needed this analysis, as I am extremely smooth brained and couldn't catch on to half of this.
This is one of the best analyses I’ve ever seen. I can now fully understand my favourite JJK character
The thing is, Geto is technically right. Jujitsu high is so fd up. The higher ups couldn’t care less about the lives of sorcerers and the world is also fd up. It’s just the way he went about helping those issues was wrong
Thats the way sukuna and kenjaku like it, they were behind the scence with the sole purpose to create hell and the worst part is that they effectively won
I'm not the only one who thinks Suguru Geto and Satoru Gojo are like Charles Xavier and Eric Lensherr from the X-Men right?
No idea who those two are but I’d say like Bjorn and Askellad or Caesar and Pompey
Yes yes yes i thought the same,not truely enemies but they see each other as "a friend on wrong side"
(Untill kenjaku takes over geto's body)
@@def3ndr887 No idea who those two are bud I'd say like Charles Xavier and Eric Lensherr from the X-Men
Geto is practically magneto with the entire anti-human thing lol
@@nibblesnarfer literally lol
It is genuinely heart breaking to see how much love these two had for one another as comrades on the front lines and close friends. Just to be forced against each other. The world of JJK is brutal
Excellent work, thanks dude!
14:59
"But although short-lived, the church gave him a reason to keep going... THAT REASON WAS GENOCI-"
Amazing video!
I really enjoyed hearing this character Analysis
on one of my favorite characters in fiction.
This video helped me better understand s2 of jjk, and especially getou. I love his character and just needed a better explanation of what happened post-Riko incident when he changed and this did exactly that. Thank you
Wonderfully done video! It was a really nice summary/explanation, it was done beautifully. I personally thought the hidden inventory arch was kind of confusing so this cleared it up for me, thanks!
(Geto's my one of my favs too)
I get a feeling itadori could have made geto see something new. He was someone who didn’t even know of sorcery then when he gained power he chose to use it knowing he’d just die. But geto never got that.
4:57 "Gun to your head.....oh I fuqed up again didn't I" 😂
Excellent analysis bro. It summarizes perfectly the relationship while keeping it concise and entertaining. And the closing scene is excellent, the choice of music, the editing, everything is fantastic. Amazing work! Keep it up!
There is indeed a theory as to what gojo said to geto and it’s derived from the opening 2 “ao no sumika” there is a line that says:
It is the unvoiced voice that says “We’ll see each other again, won’t we?”
That is just what Tatsuya Kitani thinks the last words were, but in the JJK 0 light novel (written by gege) the last words were described as such "embarrassing words that were never said before in their student days" and there was a line that said "there was something that NEVER changed, geto suguru the worst curse user but to gojo satoru he was _____" censored.
Gojo’s eng VA said that it was 3 words in english, so yeah it's most likely to be "i love you" wether it be platonic or romantic
“I love you” that’s so hot ong satosuguru
@@vulmere I LOVE YOU IS PERFECT
@@uda4699 yeah and it makes sense for "i love you" to be the words because gege said the words are in JJK 0, who else said those words? Yuta to Rika and the JJK 0 director talked about how Gojo and Geto were a parallel to Yuta and Rika and how love could have helped them grow but it came a curse
I will hang myself if the words are I love you. I need the source for everything that was said in this conversation
Extremely deep analysis loved it
i couldnt stop but cry while listening to this.. why did gege have to make this so sad ughhhh. btw i love how you explained all of this. thanks man💗😼
I think the greater point of early geto is solidified more by Mahito Corrupting Junpei. This kind of proves that curse users can kind of come from purely mundane parents. Like a Harry Potter mudblood phenomenon. This makes the existence of curse users more of a roll of the dice and shows that despite what gojo said; every sorcerer is the chosen one.
He lost touch with reality to find an easy path out of trauma. He abandoned responsibility for convenience.
I really wish they lived longer and together but maybe it was meant to be like it to give JJK more depth (specially regarding YUTA and GOJO)
And your articulated their relationship beautifully,love the video❤️
great analysis op!!! awesome video
this might be the best jjk video i have ever watched unironically this changes my view on surguru geto a lot and it is just sad to see it happen
Read the lyrics of Hidden inventory opening song (Ao no sumika i think), the lyrics tell us Gojo last words to Geto.
For those lazy to look for it, it was something among the lines of: Will we meet again?
Thanks!
No thank YOU!!!
Gei-toe < ge-to
i was cringing a little but yeah idk why pronounce it like that, just copy how the say it originally
I’m in tears 😭 getooooooo😢❤
11:22 “his one and only” PLEASE KM SOBBING
Great job bro!!! Loved the breakdown and animation!
god i’m tearing up, this is insanely well made please never stop
Honestly this analysis really answered all the questions I was wondering about, big thanks!!
The way you cut off the audio at 4:55 for the gunshot was s tier.
Yuji is closer to Geto as he experienced the same stuff as Geto but the the difference is that Yuji had people helping him through the rough time while Geto had none and Yuji had experience in non jujustu world
the only main difference is getos shitty writing
one thing I see a lot of people miss but is a really nice detail is that when riko dies and the association is clapping we see geto in a blue light and gojo in red lighting showing that geto absorbed all the info that just happened to him like blue while gojo repels all the info and only focuses on getting stronger like red
It's actually very similar in ideals & execution to the Castlevania Series on Neflix with Dracula.
Geto's perception of the world was PERMANENTLY broken. While Gojo & other characters can rationalize the cruelty & unfairness of the situation... he could NOT. There was no more innocence or delusional thinking left in him.
Geto was not stronger than Gojo, but he was more intelligent. Even worse, he was intelligent enough to understand that REGARDLESS of his own personal strength & and potential... that in the end, nothing would change. The status quo would remain the same. Why bother getting stronger?
So, not being able to pretend (or self-actualize/rationalize) that he was a "good guy", he took on the role as a "villian" while waiting for someone to put him out of his misery.
Even while playing "villian", the civilian casualties were relatively low, aside from his 1st 100 people incident. I believe he himself realized he couldn't perform genocide either after that.
So as Alucard said to Dracula, "This isnt a war, it's the world's longest suicide note."
Geto was begging for someone to end his existence. Someone to see & understand. He thought Gojo of ALL people, his BEST FRIEND, would understand.
But Gojo didn't. He couldn't even sympathize. He took the Genocide Plan at face value, not looking any deeper into it.
So in Geto's final moments, he was kind, but in a way, LOOKING DOWN on Gojo, for not understanding him.
My headcannon is that in Geto's final moments, Gojo finally agreed with Geto & admitted their actions were futile and gave him some peace.
That's why we'll never hear THAT part of the conversation, because it would be akin to breaking the 4th wall.
God's chosen righteous angel can't EVER be caught breaking bread with the Devil, & admitting this is all a game we play.
This was such an amazing video! Well done
15:13 Gege stated that what gojo said to veto was something he said in jjk 0 which makes people think he said “you are my best friend. The only one I have.”
This is one of the best, if not THE best, takes on Geto and him basically losing his mind, that I’ve seen. Just like you mentioned, while he was losing his grip on sanity, he was separated from the few people who could’ve possible helped him, especially Gojo who was focusing on making himself stronger. It’s really sad what happened to Geto and I really wish someone would have gotten to him and helped him. I also think this could be reflecting how this happens in real life; serious back and forth issues that cause people to descend into madness and they end up at an untimely end because no one was really there to see what was going on and help
15:05 that reason was genocide 😹😹😹
I was searching for this comment😂
Great analysis!
Geto Suguru is my favorite-written character in JJK.
"Damn, I got kicked out of school, how will I-"
Your blue-eyed friend: 14:27
Great analysis my man
amazing video brother. thank you for putting all of our thoughts into words, and a beautiful video.
absolute banger!!
thank you so much !!
Well I needed that explanation. thanks!
Goated video
That was a really awesome video.
Incredible breakdown. Certainly earned a sub from me ❤️
Great video! Really liked this duo, it's a really sad story.
coolnugget has to be one of the best anime youtuber out here rn
Thank you so much 💓
i like how they let us see how he really just spiraled down into a descent of madness, letting the viewers actually be able to see how he thinks and how he justifies himself, it just makes the character so much more realistic and understandable, even if you don't agree with them.
I bawled at the end don’t even start-😊 this video was BEAUTIFUL
''Ah yes Suguru Gayto"
coolnugget, your analysis is so good, you definitely were a goat in English class
1:48 I can’t not see anything but jjs
😂😂😂
"Rroughout heaven and earth i alone am the jujutsu'est"
-the jujutsu'est
this was a great watch! :D
WAKE UP Guys! COOLNUGGET POSTED AGAIN
Your explanation was superb thank you❤
Bro keeps saying gayto 😭
He ain’t wrong. He do be gay for gojo
@@bored9145 real
is that not how its supposed to be pronounced
That’s how it’s pronounced in English. Unless you wanna go the Japanese way and pronounce it GE TOE
THAT'S HOW HIS FUCKING NAME IS PRONOUNCED
