English translation of Ino Takuma’s profile and Q&A from Akutami-sensei in the Jujutsu Kaisen official fanbook + Ino’s profile from volume 4 (since it’s referenced in the Q&A)
general Q&A with Akutami-sensei on all characters, the students skills graph, and notes on the height chart for all the main characters in the Jujutsu Kaisen official fanbook
this is going to be the start of a very rambling thread as I try to make sense of JJK 145-146, Kenjaku's plans, the significance of 彼岸 / the act of crossing to "the other side", how it ties into even more Buddhism, and how all this ties in with the Culling Game #呪術バレ
gonna gloss over Kenjaku's plans bc I don't mind the details about the *what* as much as I do the *how* (for now)
Tengen states Kenjaku's goal is to have humankind evolve through the Culling Game, reach a higher state of being (similar to Tengen?), merge with Tengen #呪術バレ
if humankind were to evolve, they wouldn't have the ability to maintain their physical forms or self-control the way Tengen does because they don't possess his barrier cursed techniques. their souls would simply become one with the world with no boundaries between them #呪術バレ
at least 38 (some news outlets say 40) injured, with at least 10 people reported to be gravely injured. man in his 40s was apprehended and identified himself as the one to pour gasoline and ignite the fire.
I’m relieved the arsonist was apprehended and hoping there wasn’t any loss of life among the injured employees :(( this is so upsetting. I’m a little heartbroken at the thought of what KyoAni may have lost today. all the irreplaceable work from past and future projects :(
fuck never mind the news just confirmed there were multiple deaths in the KyoAni fire. police haven’t revealed the number, identities, or genders yet.
