(Few vague spoilers for JJK)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m a really like anime. I\u2019m not claiming to be the biggest anime fan ever, I\u2019m definitely not (I vowed when I was like 12 to never ever watch attack on titan, I fully intend to never ever watch it), but I have seen like the main few shonen (Shonen defined as Anime geared towards younger male audiences, usually some kind of action or adventure anime) Animes and if not I plan on watching them. Am I the most versed? No. Yeah, that\u2019s it. I\u2019m not the most well versed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BUT, in the shows I have seen, I find it weirdly hard to find a favorite character. Not that you HAVE to have one, not at all. I actually prefer not having one sometimes, or having multiple. This weirds some people out, especially when I say something like \u201cOh, I really like Mahito from JJK.\u201d And they look at me like I\u2019m going to burn their house down. Which, I get it. Don\u2019t get me wrong. I DO hate Mahito and he got what was coming. He was also one my favorite characters. I liked his character, not ANY of his actions, nor did I root for the bad guys (Kenjaku, Geto is a different story). Do I instantly assume people who say Mahito is their favorite are actually insane and should be put on an island away from everyone else? Yes. JJK fans are crazy. I don\u2019t trust them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyways, I do find it particularly difficult to have a favorite character, especially in shows like Jujitsu Kaisen, because I love most if not all of the characters on screen. Something something good writing and fleshed out characters. Then I feel WORSE because I can tell that the characters are well written and well loves, and I STILL cant pick a favorite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to JJK, I have a handful of characters that I may call my favorite on any given day. Previously, those characters included Mahito and Junpei\u2026 which feels really contradictory in retrospect. Super ironic. Still devastated. Still cry periodically\u2026 I digress. Now, if I were to be asked, my favorite character is in order (as of 2:48pm) Geto, Itadori, Fushiguro, Inumaki, Yuuta, and then like jogo or something. Do you know who these people are if you haven\u2019t seen the show? No. You will have no clue. But lily will, and that\u2019s all that matters a little bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like each of them for different reasons, Geto as an all-rounder, I love EVERY aspect of his character, but Yuuji trumps him in the sense that I like Itadori\u2019s characterization with compassion more. Fushiguro is an amazing representation of depression. Inumaki has the coolest technique ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s it. I\u2019m running out of time, lol, so that\u2019s my blog. I don\u2019t know who my favorite character is.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
