liking mahito is so fun. hes hated by half of the fandom. hes the most common answer from the artists who get asked about their fave jjk character in interviews. he was one of the few characters able to look pretty in the s1 animation style. he made such weird expressions he was also one of the ugliest. he always ended his fights shirtless. its fun watching him getting beat by other characters because he looks pathetic. its fun watching him beat other characters because he always humiliates them. gege used him as a tool to kill relevant characters and bring up main subjects like the dynamics of the soul in jjk. he brought more complexity to the protag than the fucking curse that was possessing him. he died and was never cited again. his shirt always goes off while he fights. hes one of the only characters we see taking a bath. he lives in the sewer. when hes naked his genitalia gets censored even tho he has no genitalia. he had one of the most creative uses of a jujutsu technique and you can literally see him getting more and more inventive as the story goes by. have i talked about how every single one of his fight scenes got him shirtless?
i cabt get the image of yuji being “punished” by nanami with tickles during their lessons
just imagine nanami is like:
“you have to be able to focus with a clear mind yuji, you’re not doing a very good job”
and yuji is just loosing it cuz nanamis tickling the heck out of him with the most stoic nanami face ever
[spoiler for jjk s2?]
i’ve gone through all 5 stages of nanami’s death a while ago but i still miss him a lot 😔😔
KTKJEKJJKEJ HELP! Nanami's got that stoic but hilariously passionate energy to him; he talks all serious and whatever but his fingers are flying all over Yuji's tickle spots and it's the BEST! The poor kid; he came in thinking he was in trouble but in all reality Nanami just felt like messing with him arkejarjkaejkr I love this so MUCH!
(SAME AHH! I knew it was coming too and yet I still sat there miserable after it happened! Bless him- he's on the beach somewhere just living his best life now.)
