#but in harmonious cooperation kuukou goes out of his way to encourage jyushi’s strength as a person

[akkivee]

the abject horror on kuukou’s face when he realises this had gone too far and he nearly drove someone to basically killing themselves killed someone is the exact reason he was so adamant about taking the fall for everything in the ren chapter btw

#vee queued to fill the void #i’ve been hesitating making my post about kuukou and his karma bc i feel it goes a lot deeper on kuukou’s end than the concept itself #like the name evil monk comes from kuukou’s name harai means sins basically aka the evils of religion #but what if it’s also indicative of how much kuukou doesn’t like himself much and him doing so much ‘quick karma’ as shakku puts it #is kuukou overcompensating for something as he’s clearly doing here in this chapter #i have this as a post in my drafts idk if i’m going to post now that i’m about to tag vomit it here lmao #but i’ve talked ad nauseam about kuukou’s cyclical writing that’s a facet of his religion being used as his character trajectory #and i won’t go off on how kuukou can potentially be the coolest written character of anything ever comes out of it lmao #but in harmonious cooperation kuukou goes out of his way to encourage jyushi’s strength as a person #and it’s the opposite of kuukou saying he himself is weak #in that same track kuukou encourages hitoya to move on from his past #this chapter right here is kuukou clinging to something that’s making him clam up and take a punishment he doesn’t quite deserve #hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i’m crossing wires in this post lmao maybe i will post the other one talking about this one to help stay on track lol #but kuukou is very quietly working himself bc there’s a lot he doesn’t like about himself and i’m very curious to know how far that goes lol #this thought is tbc lol
