A long time ago, a giant fox devil-king menaced Town with evil magic and copious lightning, searing sand to glass beneath their terrible footfalls. It was great! It was a great time.
Then some asshole exorcist got all judgy and decided menacing people with lightning was bad, and drained all their power and sealed them into a harmless, approachable, and (gag, retch) pretty Tenko form. Bound by a magic ofuda collar to not do supervillain things, their former line of work became next to impossible. They were forced to take a job at a local haunted tourist trap in order to get by, and now bide their time as a sideshow attraction (come see the legendary Fox Devil, for just $4.99!)- awaiting their opportunity to ditch this stupid waifu form and get back to terrorizing people.
Happy birthday, @eternalfarnham! Your OC is fantastic.

I’m trying to incorporate like actual things about the yokai Nurarihyon into Zazel’s characterization and his backstory but I’m by no means an expert on yokai things so if I fuck up please forgive me.

-And the moral of the story is; don’t harass people just because you’re attracted to them.
‘Like, seriously- It’s gross.

I was thinking, throughout the first half-ish of the Bount Arc, everyone seemed convinced that Jin was trying to open up some kind of massive portal between the World of the Living and Hueco Mundo, and while that didn't end up being the case, I just thought about how interesting that would be.
What if (in my little canon for Jin on this blog), as a prelude to carrying out his revenge against the Soul Society and as a sort of 'test' to gauge the strength, tenacity, and coordination of the Gotei 13 and it's related allies Post-Blood War, Jin did that, he opened up a massive portal between the World of the Living and Hueco Mundo that led to a hell-ish, Hollow free-for-all on Karakura Town and perhaps beyond? Jin would need a great deal of help to pull it off, and a lot of power to make that portal happen, but he could make it happen.
I think that would be neat, and deliciously evil for Jin, and it would fit with the end of the last drabble I wrote, which I wasn't actually 100% sure on the implications of, but now 👀 might be a plot point in the vague future.

The Night Parade of 100 Demons
Second week and I’m still going. This is one that I’ve actually been holding off on reading the sequel until I finished my review, because I didn’t want the next book to affect my thoughts here. Now I’m free to jump into that as soon as I finish the books I’m currently reading. This one is thanks to the lovely folks at Aconyte Books. Without further ado, here’s Marie Brennan’s The Night Parade of…

Suguru Geto's ability to control curses in some way prevents him from achieving his dream of destroying all non-sorcerers. After all, first he needs to collect curses. Curses harm people, then by absorbing them, it reduces attacks on people. With his active work, he accidentally protects non-sorcerers. He killed over 100 people in the village, but in 10 years he absorbed over 6,000 curses, meaning he protected probably over 6,000 people. In the Night Parade of 100 demons, he attempted the lives of sorcerers for the sake of power, but non-sorcerers were able to evacuate because he warned about the attack to keep the sorcerers busy. It’s so ironic that by setting the goal of killing non-sorcerers, sorcerers suffered more.

There’s hella theories floating around about the reason behind Tucker Carlson’s sudden divorce with Fox News, but there’s one that I love the most.
Its the sexiest, pettiest, most delicious bullshit to ever be conceived. Behold:
We know for a fact that Tucker got bitch slapped across New York City by Rupert Murdoch himself. Not only that, but baby boy was laid off sometime on Friday and notified only on Monday, when he came to work. So, this unforeseen development was like a kick in the balls. For the uninitiated, Rupert Murdoch is the name of the demonic entity responsible for the creation of Fox News.
Tuckerson and Rupert had a special relationship. According to Tucker himself, the now ex-host was “100% [Rupert’s] bitch” (we love a proud sugar baby). Tucker was basically a glorified court jester - he cosplayed for daddy Rupert as a pro-worker, anti-elitist, anti-establishment, Christian, relatable everyman that broke republicans could relate to. That was, of course, a load of horseshit. As said by Tucker himself.
You see, back in Mesozoic Era (circa 2008-2011), our boy was an active participant in shock radio programs where he paraded himself as an open and proud elitist and a self-admitted trust fund baby.
All of this deliciousness speaks for itself. Tucker Carlson is a chameleon that changes his face depending on what’s resonating best with his conservative audience. Which brings us to the nearly orgasmic culmination of events that could have possibly led to Tucker’s current unemployment.
Tuck roleplayed as a hardcore Christian for quite some time. On that fateful Friday night, he turned it up to 100 for his speech at the conservative think tank Heritage Foundation’s 50th anniversary gala. Bubba was popping off, calling abortions “child sacrifices” and demanding daily prayers. The audience loved it. Rupert? Not so much.
The thing is, for Rupert business comes before fascism. Grandpa worships money, Jesus is merely a profitable business strategy. For a businessman, the rabid fundie shit was already incredibly off-putting. And Tucker’s villain monologue just happened to be the last drop in the bucket that was already filled to the brim by Murdoch’s ex. That’s right. The chair of Fox News broke off his recent engagement because his fiancée was a Jesus freak.
Now onto the good shit. Rupert’s ex had a favorite show. Guess what that show was?
Tucker Carlson Tonight
The woman in question even had tête-à-tête chit chats with her favorite TV personality, thanks to her connection to Fox News CEO.
Tensions were rising in the Murdoch household. The ex-fiancée’s obsession with Tucker only added fuel to the fire. The woman went as far as declaring that Carlson was a messenger from God. One day, Tucker had a dinner at his boss’ estate. In the middle of dinner the Jesus lady pulled out a Bible and began discussing the book of Exodus with Carlson.
Rupert just sat there like 👁️👄👁️
In the end, the man was too freaked out by Christian fundamentalism and kicked Tucker out after his particularly awful speech. It was also a cute little fuck you to his ex cause now her favorite show got canceled
This is just one theory, but it’s my favorite, so I prefer it above all else, and now you get to experience this beauty with me
God, I adore American politics

yet another chapter 236 analysis
Tumblr media
haibara "butted into" nanami's "end", making nanami say a curse can save people too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
haibara's view was pure/uncynical, despite the difficulties of being a jujutsu sorcerer. i think nanami was able to find purpose/value in being a jujutsu sorcerer only after seeing things the way haibara saw them. nanami's flashback about helping the bakery worker comes to mind.
more importantly, haibara helped nanami feel like it was okay to pass the baton. [as it went: haibara -> nanami -> yuuji (also recently: nanami -> ino)]. in other words: haibara encouraged nanami to let others pick up where he left off, and not take on everything himself (what once was a burden, became a relief),
Tumblr media
i think this is where nanami was coming from when he spoke about all this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
throughout his life, nanami wasn't the type of person that's open to entrustring everything to the next generation, but at the end he did so anyways. thanks to haibara. (currently in the manga, the theme continues. higuruma -> yuuji; to be a jujutsu sorcerer is to inherit other's will. keep the ball rolling).
what i find interesting is that the two of them are meant to contrast gojo and geto in some way. it's why their backs are to each other specifically in this arrangement:
Tumblr media
i think in this scene, gojo opposes nanami in the way that he looked towards the past in his final moments while always being the type that betted on the future. whilst geto opposes haibara's outlook on jujutsu sorcery (to him it's an endless marathon).
moreover, just as a curse exists between nanami and haibara, i think it's implied that a curse exists between gojo and geto.
what type of curse, you may wonder?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
love of course. when gojo says "i see" after nanami explains his "end", i think it's meant to show gojo's shifting view on what he considered his own curse: love.
(note that the phrase "the absolute strongest. the loneliness that follows. the one that will teach you... about love is..." also appears in chapter 236)
and there are already several mentions of love as a source of strength in jujutsu kaisen. particularly in relation to yuta who indisputably parallels gojo in vol 0.
initially, yuta accidentally cursed rika because he refused to let her die, akin to how gojo accidentally "curses" geto. that is, his love makes him avoid killing him for ten years as well as hand over his corpse to shoko— leading to the night parade of 100 demons, geto's body being possessed, gojo to become sealed, etc
Tumblr media
conclusion to the story in vol 0 being that while love can be an awful curse, it can also save people. think yuta's "this is pure love" vs geto's "then this is justice."/a great cause.
this is something gojo belatedly realizes or accepts in death.
love/geto saved gojo from the dreaded loneliness that comes with unrivaled strength. not just by matching his power, but by satisfying the vague thirst inside him for something beyond his strength. (sukuna goes on to call gojo greedy in chapter 237 for craving this satisfaction/love).

Analyzation on Nanami
Contains spoilers for the manga I guess.
Nanami’s personality feels a bit bland on the outside but has a deeper meaning on the inside. We see him as a man who left jujutsu society and became a deprived yet serious businessman. But something that sticks out to me is that he is VERY protective of young sorcerers. Why is that?
Well for starters he did grow up as the only sorcerer in his family. So he as a child he wasn’t used to the chaos and bloodshed that jujutsu society has. Haibara is definitely a factor on why he is so protective of people especially young sorcerers. He was his best friend and only 17. Nanami saw him die brutally on HIS watch, together. In the manga he felt completely useless and said that they should just leave everything to the strongest. A person who actually has the ability to protect everyone.
Tumblr media
Many people think only Haibara and Yuuji influenced Nanami. But what about Geto? Geto was a good acquaintance of his and he also witness Geto’s downfall. In fact, Nanami doesn’t even blame Geto. Because he knows that if he was in Geto’s shoes and saw a CHILD (Riko) die right infront of him, he would absolutely loose it too. Geto perhaps in some way might’ve influenced Nanami to leave jujutsu society so that way his health doesn’t take a toll which makes him go crazy and become a cursed user.
In the night parade of 100 demons, we see Nanami letting the young kids stay behind as he handles the situation. Sure this is fan service but this adds so much more to his character. I saw somewhere that his record of 4 consecutive black flashes were DURING the parade. Black flashes required power and determination. Nanami had so much determination to save the young sorcerers that he is willing to push the extent of his body. He explains that “in the zone", the state of elite focus and feeling of being at the center of everything. As you release more black-flashes after it, it becomes “natural like you are breathing normally”. This could be a reference to Nanami protecting kids naturally from the bottom of his heart and it’s just in his nature to step in.
Tumblr media
Nanami uses that pain as motivation. He comes back to the bloody jujutsu society for the better because he knows that there is a chance to protect young and gifted sorcerers like Yuuji Itadori. He has absolutely no hesitation protecting young sorcerers even if they aren’t Yuuji too. Since he knows he can’t bear to see anyone die. Since he spent his life hiding as a normal person while children were fighting and he in a way wants to make up for it.
We have to end the post by analyzing his iconic line “Being a child is not a sin.” He doesn’t care if they fail on a mission or in general, he just needs them alive because at the end of the day they are just kids. Nanami has seen a lot of things like curses growing up. In fact he was still a kid and was still growing when he became a sorcerer and saw his friends and comrades die. He saw people change their entire personality. He doesn’t want to curse Yuuji and be a burden to him because that might get him killed. He cares for Yuuji and Haibara even on the brink of death and in fact, those two kids are the last thing he ever sees. He will try to be a role model so he can help protect kids and teach them to protect themselves.

Thank you for reading! Have some treats:
