Toji from Evangelion? 😂😂
Beautiful video as always mate
my goat
Toji involvement in no understatement an important moment in the story.
Without him:
The Star plasma vessel would merge with tengan
Geto wouldn't spiral to what he became in JJK 0 and Kenjaku controlling his body
Gojo wouldn't have become as strong as he is without his involvement.
And a Succession crisis that leads to a clan being destroyed.
toji is one of the most fascinating characters in the whole story. Because of how important to the story he is, how impactful to the current timeline he is, his ties to various characters we know, and just how little we actually know of him. We only see him in the last hours of his life. The similarities he has to many of our main cast (gojo, maki, megumi). Just how little we know of the sweet loving family man he was, contrasted with the cunning, ruthless, cutthroat man weighed down by his traumas that we see him to be. The fact that even in his last moment with his son, he doesn't even tell him who he is, despite how much he obviously cares for him. I don't see tojo willingly stopping his rampage for anyone else except megumi. After fighting him im sure he was genuinely proud of his son, and truly happy that he's doing okay in life, *without* the zenin clan. I think toji truly thought megumi was just better off without his father in his life, and figured it's better to remain an anonymous relic of megumi's past rather than reveal himself and add baggage to megumi's life.
What honestly sticks with me about Toji, despite his give no fuck attitude, despite having power and skills that make him more than a competitive match for any special grade short of adult Gojo and Sukuna, he’s clearly horribly depressed.
I’m not going to argue he’s a good father, but it’s clear that Megumi and his mother gave him a security and comfort in himself and a purpose greater than self affirmation that kept him centered. Once she disappears and he no longer feels like he’s enough, he regresses into old habits and sells his son away because how could he ever be enough. It’s clear that Toji is at his best as a person when he’s looking out for the best interest of others, which makes his second death so tragic because the moment he saw he had been so close to killing his son, once he confirmed the identity, without hesitation he kills himself before he can regress back to his instincts. He may not be a good dad, but he had the makings of one and the tragedy is he could never see it in himself and try to keep himself centered.
In a way, you can see a ton of Megumi in Toji and vice-versa. Megumi gives up alot for others when he would fit the troupe of an extremely selfish character and Toji can be viewed as a Megumi who is increadibly greedy and selfish of his own desires without caring for others truly.
@@cw.k1532 man, Sage's Rain videos really bring out the best anime/manga fans fr, i love the conversations happening. Y'all just said some real shit about toji and megumi
!!
*Bro Cooked*
@@alovesupreme76That's the beauty of it. It is not just some "drawings". From Naruto to Shingeki no Kyojin , Full Metal Alchemist even Monster, just to quote these few, animes/mangas have always dealt with extremely, yet very relatable topics.They make you think and most of the time pause and challenge your own perspective and make you put yourself in question.
A child that not accepted by the village, will burn it to the ground just to feels its warmth.
Maki and Mai will learn well from their predecesor next season
@@kallum39 I can't wait to see the Culling Games in the upcoming season 3!
Killmonger is a good example.
@@traystay6937 Same goes for Tai Lung and Anakin!
@@PedroLucas-mg5je naruto never did
Toji is the personification of one of the most interesting and simple parts of Jujutsu's world building, imo: The majority of a Sorcerer's potential is simply innate talent. Other shounen often talk up Hard Work and Go Get'em Attitude, but nevertheless give the protagonists some amazing bloodline ability or innate power-up that separates them from the rest. Jujutsu just straight up says, if you're born useless, you can only hope to reach mediocre
Toji is born incredible, but within the eyes of his clan is subhuman. So even when your talents are inborn, they STILL may not be recognized and appreciated by those around you
Same goes for sports animanga
@@hish33p32I didn’t know hinata had a bloodline ability. Is that why he’s 5’4
Bro Heavily Restriction is an innated condition... Toji just happened to maximize on it same as Maki. She capitalize on that as well. They arent normal human beings like the monkeys. If anyone is usless and has no strong blood ties is Miwa😂 shes not even part of the big 3 clans, normal as they come and no can no longer wield a sword.
@@semekiizuio Yes? I said that Toji is the personification of the idealization of innate abilities. Yet I find it interesting he is neglected by his family regardless. I don't see what you think you're counter arguing?
you are saying HR isnt an inborn talent which it is regardless of how Zenin saw it. Its runs in the Zen in bloodlines. On top of that they werent usless in the JJK world only _again_ the Zenin saw it that way, Gege made sure of that by making Maki one of the top 3 hitters
And as I put an example, Miwa is not part of the big 3, has no bloodline with strong abilities or powers. Shes the most normal as they go, she now cant use her sword anymore rendering her completely usless.
Ironic how the "monkey" that was excluded and ridiculed from the Jujutsu World brought upon the event that changed everything in the world. Had it not been for Gojo awakening against Toji, who would've known where the story went. Toji was the event that occurred that brought down a cascading sequence of events that we know the Jujutsu World as today.
🎯
For real. He’s set sooo many things in motion/made things possible with saving megumi n them from Dagon, to letting megumi live
Yeah man. If not for Toji, Gojo wouldn't have been able to use RCT and use the hollow purple for the first time. He would not be the honoured one as he was.
If Toji didn’t succeed Sukuna would have never have Kenjaku’s plan would’ve been destined to fail and Itadori’s plan execution would’ve happened way more quickly and easily.
But looking at where we are in the Manga and Anime maybe Tengan should have merged with the vessel
Toji being addicted to gambling makes so much sense for his character. as someone whose core belief is that if you're born as a monkey you'll die as a monkey and no amount of hard work can change that, gambling as his vice is symbolic of that constant internal struggle. he is seen specifically at betting spots like horse or boat races, instead of the casino, and in bets it's significantly easier to fix the outcome. the winner is chosen at the beginning, they are born a winner and the others are born losers. Toji never wins, but he always comes back and he always stays until the very end, even when it becomes obvious who will win. because in betting races, there will occasionally be a dark horse, an underdog that no one expects to win who will come out on top at the last second, against all odds. that's what toji is betting on, he's betting on himself
Amazing observation. I've been trying to piece together the gambling symbolism for a while now.
Toji broke the JJK universe. He led Gojo and Geto to discover their respective paths, eliminated one of the four Unregistered Special Grades, weakened Megumi to the point he had to release (too long a name) to fight handsword guy, and traumatized his son one last time.
Not bad for a monkey :)
It’s crazy to think that this guy with no cursed energy changed the entire trajectory of the story😭
yea lol if he didn't kill that girl so much things would be different
I feel like he still cares for his kid but the moment he became the invisible man was the moment he became someone else no longer able to recognize his own child’s face.🐱
I'd wager the first thing he couldn't see was his own self and everything attached to it
He definitely does in his final moments he only thinks about his kid at first when Gojo killed him he was rejected the idea of caring for his kids trying his best to say that he didn’t care😢 But after he was reincarnated seeing Megumi he his own sorcerer made him realize everything he works for as an assassin didn’t matter he was a family man first
The fact that Toji theoretically was the strongest in the verse before honored Gojo. There was teen Yuki, but still like teen Gojo, she hadn't sharpened her powers. Toji could take her out if he got the same treatment as Gojo. He had all the affirmation he needed, his heart just begged for more.
Yuki was already a special grade who left the school by the time Geto meets her 1 year after Toji’s death and when she met a 8 year old Todo. I would imagine that she was already reaching her peak by that point
Yuki is older than gojos team
you gotta realise that toji at his weakest killed teen gojo too
@@vic2982. Yea but ain't no way Yuki is getting killed by Prime Toji she has good durability and can easily speed blitz him + her one punch would send Toji to heaven.
toji has the best physical stats databook wise in the verse. He's more likely to "easily speed blitz" her than the other way around. And she really doesn't have anything on him. If it's an assassination she's fucked, if it's a 1v1 she's also probably fucked since she doesn't have reverse cursed technique and he's way more durable. Only chance she has of taking him out is by a suicide black hole.@@toki8093
It is a shame you don’t have a bigger following. The fact that you can make any anime character seem truly human is a true talent. I hope you get bigger as a content creator. You truly deserve it keep it up Sagerain❤️‼️
You saying this made me realize I wasn’t following for the whole time 😂
I have followed this man for years and he’s grown so much but his efforts and quality deserve more attention 🫡
dick rida lmao
@@mitcheltillman2461literally i thought i was subbed for the longest time i literally follow him on insta
Genuine question for you, isn't four hundred thousand subscribers and an average of one hundred thousand views per video a big following to you? I find it odd that you would say that to someone with almost half a million subscribers. I've felt like in the past year Sage has cemented himself as a cohesive and calm voice in the anime community. Don't mean to sound mean at all, I'm bad at phrasing my sentences. I just find it curious that this is the popular sentiment here on the channel. Is he really considered a small content creator in regard to his fanbase?
I love how the design of Toji's clothes is reversed after he's resurrected. From tight and black for the upper body and oversized greyish for the lower body before his death to the exact opposite after... I had never noticed that! It's interesting. I don't think it's a coincidence.
In what way do you assume its used? Im genuinely curious, do you think Gege uses this to show Toji as changed? But i dont think he changed, I think that it could be used for his change of heart maybe? When he died in tight black, he used his final moments to show hes not the invisible man, hes not only the invisible killer but also a father. Then, he returns with the oversized white shows the change he may have felt, maybe the space shows that hes himself. He finally acknowledged he is Toji Fushiguro, not Toji Zenin with both heart and soul.
it fascinates me in the world the zenin clan has 2 cases within a generation or so and not realize how useful it is they technically have 2 inborn techniques that you could be born with 10 shadows or heavenly restriction
Love how toji being free of cursed energy(the literal "curse" on humanity and also the thing that alienated toji) ironically is what allowed him to affect the story so heavily. Someone unbound by fate and the conventions placed on everyone else by the narrative because of his "imperfection" was the only person able to change fate. He was the most free person in jjk, but he was still bound by trauma. Just a fundamentally human character which makes his parallels with gojo(a lonely god) so good.
This is what I love about stories like JJK and Bleach. There is so much depth and nuance, but a lot of it doesn't even present itself on the surface. It's a lot of subtext that the writers want you to draw your own conclusions from. The stories are really as deep as you want them to be, and that's a level of skill with the pen that I can hardly comprehend. I truly wish I had even a fraction of the talent that so many mangaka have.
its actually so beautiful
That's why I find it so funny when people talk trash about bleach, it's so obvious they didn't get it at all
@@wumbojet Yes, thematically Bleach is incredible and all the characters get their time in the spotlight and are pretty great, but it has a LOT of flaws as well. All the fights become just a back and forth of countering each others powers, the story is lacking in certain aspects and/or arcs (God the Fullbring arc was the worst), etc.
I like to also think of Toji as a changer of fate itself. He’s unbound from the jujusu world entirely from no cursed energy. Cursed energy itself seems to have fate woven in it to some extent.. the fact there has never really been a 6 eyes sorcerer stronger than gojo isn’t really a coincidence. Gojo was never meant to be that strong, nor was Riko ever suppose to die. Almost everything happening in the story is the direct result of Tojis actions (birth of Megumi) (Elevation of Gojo to become the strongest).
Toji has changed fate itself because he is unbound from Jujutsu world from no cursed energy.. the domino effects are unreal from him and have completely changed the world and set it on a new path. He is unshackled, the bare flesh of the one who is free.
Again I think he’s a changer of fate due to the fact he has no cursed energy and thus isn’t accounted for in this “fate” that I described.
Tbh I doubt that his lack of curse energy is connected with fate, specially because I don't recall no one ever speaking about fate throughout the manga or it being a theme at any point, so I doubt that it is related since the author doesn't want the manga to be about that or to be one of its themes.
But still I like your theory and actually make sense when you think about it. Is also pretty funny to think about the implications of people without curse energy being capable of changing fate since (SPOILERS from the manga) Maki has acquired the exact same heavenly restriction as Toji so now she is capable of changing the fate of the jujutsu world too
@@reddulinkoThe manga says the six eyes and the plasma star vessels and master tengen are bound by fate, so I don’t think it’s fair to say that fate is not an important theme in the story. In fact, I would go so far as to say that in the story there is a natural balance and cycle of things that seem to occur and recur due to fate or happenstance, whichever you choose to believe. I would say it’s fair to say that Toji was a disruptor of fate and these cycles which has now led to a domino effect of the world changing.
He was an abused boy who became a broken man and he just wanted to prove that he was more than the trash he was viewed as...
I love him for so, so many reasons - and I'm so happy to see people dive into his character and appreciate him like I do
(Man, I wanna cry..)
I think maybe getting attached to Megumi would have reminded him of the loss of his mother so it was easier to run away from him and his pain.
I also think thats a good point
damn dude, youre probably right
i think he also didnt want to put megumi in any danger by showing him as one of his weaknesses
The Zen'in clan is one of the most disgusting organizations/clans/families I've seen in manga, their abuses are so unbelievably awful that it seems they're trying to outdo themselves.
How much compared to Uchiha? I'm curious
@@gojihead3195 I never really cared much about them because of Naruto's weird deterministic setting, how evil can someone be if they are ordained by destiny and the blood of a moon goddess to be evil?
Either way, I never saw them as really compelling, but, the uchihas are more warmongers and insane terrorists with no larger plan, the Zen'in are a respected and "well adjusted" group of conservative old guard sorcerers who maintain horrible traditions just to preserve the status quo of jujutsu society. They view weak sorcerers born from their line as scum and treat them like little more than slaves, their own flesh and blood. Women are little more than breeding facilitators and "educators" for the new generation. Toji was born without CE and he was relentlessly abused and made to kill cursed spirits since he was a child, the moment he started to do that with ease and finally fully manifested the true extent of his heavenly restriction the higher-ups of the clan feared for their lives, but killing Toni would be too much of a risk so they let him walk free of the clan. Maki suffered the same childhood as toji, except worse in other aspects because she's a woman until she ran away and let her twin sister take all of the abuse.
The fact that you get an arc dedicated to the Zen'in protagonists mercilessly and brutality killing her whole family in cold blood and it's one of the few things you can say is objectively good for the world should tell you how horrible they are.
manga try not to make the worst households known to mankind challenge: impossible difficulty
personally, i think his curbstomping of dagon was also reflection of his true self, as the heavenly restriction tends to work best when its user is completely disentangled from others' expectations (iykyk)
Maki's honest reaction to the Zenin clan:
I always thought that Toji was the most blessed im the Zen'in clan. We don't truly know what is the origins of Heavenly Restricted beings like him, Maki and even Mechamaru but they fit the perfect anecdote of people having nothing to lose, being able to give everything. Theyre not in two minds about the limits (physical and cursed technique wise). They can dedicate everything to just honing one thing in their lives.
But because of the influences of their heritage, they believed that they had nothing. And thats what shackled them mentally.
Toji was truly blessed, he just didnt see it. He was completely free from the chains of fate in the Jujutsu world and therefore, never had to suffer a sorcerers death. There truly was no one like him in the Jujutsu world. He couldve walked away, and forged his own destiny.
Unlike Maki who sealed her fate in the Jujutsu world by murdering her entire clan (best believe that due to her actions, someone will hunt her someday to restore the clans honor), Toji had no ties whatsoever....if only he believed it.
If they come for revenge, they better be stronger than Maki
Dawg wtf was Maki supposed to do? They were out for blood just cause she wanted to get a couple weapons for the homies. Gotta respect the GRIND
The fact that he only got a little scar when trown in a room full of cursed spirit its impressive on its own
Amazing as hell. My opinion on Toji is completely changed now. I thought he was just a murderer who cared about no one but himself. You used implications from the story and author’s statements to show a completely different side of him. It’s all an act to protect his own ego. He lost himself completely. Of course he went after an awakened Gojo, of course he called himself a “monkey” when he destroyed Geto. Much like the shinobi world, the jujutsu world has scarring effects that sorcerers don’t even realize…
He is the one Nietzsche was talking about, the one fighting monsters but became one hispoorself. And, at that moment, i think calling himself “monkey” is more like spitting in their face.
Loved the character in those episodes in the anime.
After watching this I feel like megumi is the person toji wanted to be. Never noticed how sad he was and how much he just wanted validation.
I like how there’s a bit of a dichotomy between Sage’s Rain video and Meti [not the bad guy] ‘s video. Two fundamentally different yet equally interesting interpretations of Toji as a character. In my opinion, Toji is probably somewhere in between of both, or more likely takes aspects from both sides of these interpretations.
Yeah both are good interpretations and makes a lot of sense
"The monkey who killed a god" sounds like sun wukong lmao
At the bottom of it all, you’d probably find a man with a broken dream, and a broken heart.
You trying to quote Koenma in Yu Yu Hakusho?
I love the video title implying Toji's relationship with the Son Wukong legend!
...wait...
Heavenly Restriction...
Heaven's Equal...
Does what he wants, whenever, however...
Greedy, selfish, prideful...
WAIT A MINUTE!
unfortunately i only made this connection while writing my next video :(
Gojo’s quote of “Under Heaven and Earth,, I alone am the Honoured One” is from the Buddha himself.
Sun Wukong, the monkey king vs The Buddha.
@@n0hesitati0n15 Yeah! I thought I was trippin, but no! Gege REALLY snuck that in there under our noses! He even has Toji's battle outfit more closely inspired by Chinese fashion typically worn by Wushu and Tachiquan practitioners! 🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️😩 Omg, how deep does tbis rabbit hole GO??????
I think it's kinda nuts that Toji thinks people who specialize in CURSED energy are the blessed ones. Nothing good has ever happened because of it, and the self hatred instilled into him by the Zenins was so strong that he couldn't realize the heavens themselves protected him from all that. I think it's nuts that despite all the abuse and suffering, Toji never went to annihilate the clan. Finally I think it's nuts that he was soooo close to healing from it with his wife and Megumi, but sank back into "the life" cus of unfortunate circumstances (or maybe his wife's death was part of Kenjaku's plans)
The thing about Toji is that he is basically unmanipulatable because of his status and heavenly connection, which is why sadly his Wifes death is really just a bad hand dealt by fate.
I still find Hidden Inventory arc to be the best arc in the series. I just find that it’s way more fleshed out and impactful than any other arc. The other arcs after it feel depressing just to be depressing and they seem to not be as thought provoking. I’ve spent more time thinking about Geto’s, Gojo’s, and Toji’s perspectives than anything else in JJK all together. That’s just my opinion though
I would also like to propose that Toji Zenin is anologous to "The Monkey King", which is why he refers to himself as the monkey. The Monkey king also fights against the heavenly gods analogous with the Jujutsu Clans. Gojo Satoru vs Toji could also be seen as the fight between the monkey king and the Buddha, where the monkey king loses. Gojo being Buddha's analogue is an obvious from when he says "Throughout Heaven and Earth, I Alone Am The Honored One" which is what the Buddha is supposed to have said when he was born. Gojo also tries to reform society, similar to the Buddha. Welcoming any comments or additions!
I agree
Can we get a video about Reiner from attack on titan? His character is so interesting like his problem with split personality disorder and his trouble with trying to tell from the soldier and the warrior and his struggles with insanity, depression and how he rose from the ashes.
yep, i’ll definitely touch on reiner in 2024
@@SagesRain Thank you!!!!
This is a great video and it fully shows Toji, especially when there are so many jokes that he doesn’t want to play child support to megumi. Also people actually believe him lying about forgetting his son. He was just trying to distance himself. I get they are jokes and they are funny but they aren’t genuine to his character as he is man who internalised a lot of his trauma. But he had retired from his rage and was about to become a father, but due the loss of his wife he rebounded. Also due his self loathing and lack of approval he believed he was an unfit father and to give him a better life to the family he hated, but deeply loved megumi.
Toji taught me that me that if you fighting the most powerful opponent you can defeat him and also he taught me that (nothing is
impossible) that's why he is my fav character
Toji is my favorite character so I’ve been loving all the great videos coming out with different peoples takes. Great job!
This was a genuinely good video with really solid points and a more thoughtful look at Toji, great job man
Sage I have been with you for years, your perspective is raw and alive. I would like to take this time to thank you for your insight of what these stories can teach us along the path.
That was such a well paced, entertaining and easy to digests breakdown I might’ve ever seen. Keep it going!
Truly of all the jjk content I have watched your video has amazed me in a way unrivalled. (Fr it's so good dude good job)
Love to see the continued success in your channel man. Been here almost the whole time and you've always been one of my favorites.
Can't believe it's already been 6 years.
Toji is a very conflicting character, as he commits immoral acts that create destruction and tragedy like killing Riko and being the start of Geto’s descent into madness, but he himself has tragic aspects of himself from being victim of mistreatment from the zenin clan and the loss of his wife.
Why are you making me cry brooo
Damn i didn't expect to get so emotional
This is gonna be so good. Thank you sage
I was really praying you're going to do a character analysis on one of my favorite characters
So very well done, I love the depth you can find in characters, they are truly what make the story. I very much like how Toji’s character was written to show the deep and dark side of the world that could be so much more beneficial and balanced than it is.
If you haven’t already you should do some videos on Children of the Sea, and not just the film. The manga is sooooo much deeper, my personal favorite is Anglade but there is so many directions and various depths you can look into that world.
Aye you rock bro, that was a great, in-depth video of a complex character. To most Toji is a heartless killer but you made him seem so human in that he is simply a product of his environment. Keep it up big dog😤🙌🏾
Am truly impressed. The last words of the video were truly moving. Respect.
Love a new upload, thank u
I love all of your videos. So in-depth from a perspective that i would have not think of. Great job and keep it up!
I dont know why, watching almost any of your videos makes me cry for some reason
Man I need a toji prequel series as soon JJK is finished.
There is a one shot fan made that is quite good
@@xaxa_G0D oh i know. I read it and i loved it now i want more
you cooked on this one your style of writing is inspirational to me
Phenomenal video and character analysis. Everything you put forward makes sense, and shows motive behind Toji besides gambling/money. My perspective has changed on the character, hes one of my favourites now.
thank you!
Awesome work, thank you ❤
Great analysis. Loved it ❤
that video my friend just got you a subscription 🙈 holy shit love the commentary on this. My favorite character in all of JJK
yoooo sage was good ?! love seeing you doing great man ive been following your channel for years now man and it aided me growing through the years and im really happy to see you and your channel grow too !!! its amazing to see how a soul in germany can be affected by the words of a genuine and honest soul in the us talking about topics of his interest!
much love! keep up the good work! stay healthy and happy brother
I watched several videos from this channel since RUclips offered me it yesterday and I sincerely wish more followers to gain cuz these analysis are incredible !!!
love when new SR videos drop.
Toji really is the ultimate being.
Idk what else to say but bravo man, earned a new sub hope u blow up!
Such a great character analysis
Amazing Video! Thank You!
Your voice is soothing. I subscribed
heyo bro, im new but i already love your content! 🔥
I really enjoy these videos (especially the adventure time ones). Im studying psychology right now and plan to pursue a career in it so using these videos as reference to learn how to read people, their personalities etc is so interesting
You should read horror stories or narrate horror manga or something, your voice is incredibly soothing and that’s perfect for those kinds of things.
Love the video, Toji is awesome in my book, keep up the great work, Sage
Toji is my favourite character. this video was beautiful. perfectly captures his humanity.
Great video, great editing, interesting topic
Imagine having the strength to protect your one bit of happiness from a world of curses and sorcerers and losing her to regular life, i get him just leaving Megumi.
incredible narration and vid keep up de gud work
This is a pure masterpiece.
14:13 Toji is the perfect foil for Gojo, and they are both different and similar in so many interesting ways. One interesting contrast between Toji and Gojo is that Gojo is revered by the masses of Jujutsu society for his strength, but Toji's strength is only recognized by those who represent the very pinnacle of Jujutsu society. Noaya, a child prodigy with an inherited technique; Gojo, a limitless + six-eyes user; and Yuki, a special grade, are all in awe of Toji. Sukuna was also very intrigued by the heavenly restriction (wielded by Maki).
Another banger!
you are very good at this man
My favorite videos you ever made were about Tai Lung and the Females in Naruto.
Both of them changed my perspective on life, as well as how I viewed the franchises.
Imagine he did a video about Everything Everywhere All At Once
What a amazing character study!🤔
GOOD STUFF BRO
SAGE POSTED RAHHH
A JJK video without manga spoilers! Glad I could watch it, because it was really good
what a great content
"The Monkey Who Killed a God"
What a beautiful title for Toji Fushiguro.
Loved this vid
What if Toji actually took care and trained megumi, imagine how much of a power house megumi could have been. Even though Toji has no experience training a person especially a person with a curse technique but he would probably still be strong than current megumi.
Going by the different power sets it wouldn’t have made much difference but the mentality would be like night and day. Megumi didn’t think much of himself so he unknowingly crippled his power with a loving parent to help his self esteem he most likely would have had a perfect domain by his introduction in S1
Shit made me tear up man. Good stuffs
Nice use of the Signalis soundtrack, it fits the emptiness Toji must have felt during most of his life
Just one thing Fushiguro is the last name of his 2nd wife, not his first that gave birth to Megumi. Meaning to Toji, Fushiguro was simply a last name to cut himself and his son away from Zen in. No matter how much he wanted to escape Zen in, he couldnt just leave that behind. At least when Gojo came around, he might have thought hed have a better option to have his kid not be associate eith Zen in but also be a strong sorcerer
Always great
Great video
This guy is my favourite elder brother! Doesn’t matter whether he knows or cares, but whereever you are big saz I love you! ❤❤❤ such an unempathetic one, no care for the world, where are these tears drops coming from! strange! Into the void we slowly become nothingness. ❤❤❤❤❤
10 mins after sparing his son:
WITH THIS TREASURE I SUMMON
oks do Suguru Geto next, it would be super interesting, also very in depth and critical thoughts, you make youtube better!
"The Monkey who killed a God"
What a great title for the video
beautiful video👌🙌, toji and megumi both are the most tragic characters in jujutsu kaisen and i wish things turned out better, if megumis mother didnt die toji would have not sufferd anymore
I relate to Toji. In terms of going back to an abused state after losing what kept a happier content state going.
Thank you for making this video! Aside from Nanami, Toji is my 2nd favorite character because from the first time I saw this man I knew he had A LOT of sh*t suppressed away for so many years to the point of being apathetic to everything in life...a broken man, under the weight of his own pride (and low self-worth), abused by the Zenin clan and abandoned his kids without a father to protect them.
Toji is one of my favorite characters in Shonen. ESPECIALLY after how he was animated in S2 of the anime. Seeing his face after realizing who Megumi was (right before Megumi swung his sword) is what solidified all of it for me.
Looking at Toji’s face after he got hit with purple shakes my heart. He looks so sad 😢
beautiful
