Is Enjin’s scar from being shot at by Riyo?

The scar on Enjin’s right temple matches the kind of scar you’d get from being grazed by a bullet

My theory is that when Riyo and Enjin first encountered each other, Riyo shot at Enjin and nearly killed him, but Enjin subdued her and offered to give her a second chance at life if she joined the cleaners and promised never to kill again.

Nothing like the friendship between a lesbian and her straight guy friend that calls her “dude”

Semiu and Enjin from Gachiakuta chapter 131

How it feels to talk to your cousin in Scarlet Hollow

Seriously, even just going off the stuff Pearlanne is confirmed to have done to Tabitha and not any of the things she is widely suspected to have done, Pearlanne is a truly foul bitch

Welcome back, Maki Zenin

(Series is Ichi the witch, character is named Gokuraku)

I like the implication here that Panda isn’t at all surprised by the idea of Maki not teaching her grandkid manners, but he is shocked that Yuta failed to teach his grandkid how to behave properly.

Cursed JJK epilogue theory

So Nobara got her mom’s contact info from Gojo.

Nobara’s mom apparently spends all her free time seducing hot, rich younger dudes.

Gojo is a hot, rich younger dude.

…Did Gojo find Nobara’s mom because she started flirting with him?

Did Gojo sleep with Nobara’s mom?

Nobara’s part of the JJK epilogue

I like that Nobara had zero interest in talking with her mom because she’s such a deadbeat hoe, she only went to see her to honor Gojo’s wishes and because she thought it would be really funny to watch her grandma put the fear of God into her mother.

Me about a year ago: “I’m feeling a bit burnt out on battle shonen manga, especially after JJK shit the bed. Maybe I’ll try this Stormlight Archive thing my friends keep talking about, epic fantasy would be a good change of pace.”

One year and 6000 pages later

Me: “…Hey wait a minute, this is just a battle shonen in book form! Oh well, at least it’s actually good.”

Seriously tho, I highly recommended The Stormlight Archive to anyone who is/was a battle shonen fan but has gotten tired of the genre. It’s got everything you’d want in a good battle shonen. You do have to read a lot of words though and there aren’t many pictures, which might be a problem for some people.

Morena Prudo is such a funny villain

Like on one hand she’s this complex villain with a horrific backstory who created a murder cult with the goal of wiping out not just the government of the country responsible for her abuse, but everyone in that country and then the rest of “this dung heap of a world”.

But at the same time when the female solider she kidnapped starts asking questions about Morena’s goals and abilities “Oh my, I’m flattered that you’re asking so many questions about me. Do you wanna officially join my murder cult by kissing me? 🥺”

Truly the most sinister girl kisser of all time.

I know this meme is generally used in an somewhat ironic way for characters who have done horrible things, but it is just genuinely 100% true here

Arcane is so much more enjoyable when you approach it accepting the fact that everyone except for Ekko is kinda awful and regularly makes bad decisions.

So Nobara doesn’t know what post-Shibuya Maki looks like

And I just think it’d be really funny Nobara just had this moment of “Who is that hot chick with the scars… OH MY GOD IS THAT MAKI?!”

Strong Return

Ryoko Kui is truly iconic for having Otta, the butch lesbian elf, gift Mithrun a nail file.

So you're telling me that the rest of the cast is keeping information about certain characters secret from Yuji so that knowledge of their abilities doesn't leak to Sukuna?

Honestly this does kinda explain everything about the weird way Nobara has been handled.

The way Megumi acts weird whenever Yuji brings up Nobara and sidesteps ever saying she is dead? He can't bring himself to lie about Nobara to Yuji.

The fact that no one, not even Maki or Panda, has ever bothered to tell Yuji something like "Hey, sorry about what happened to Nobara"? It's not that they're assholes, it's because they know she isn't dead/comatose/whatever and don't wanna bring it up unprompted.

The way Panda nonchalantly brings Nobara up to Megumi while discussing old vs modern techniques in the Kirara fight despite never wanting to acknowledge her outside of that fight? It's because Yuji isn't around so they don't have to tip toe around discussing her.

The way Gojo doesn't seem to care about Nobara's status? It's because she's perfectly fine and he got told off-screen to preserve the twist.

There is the issue that Sukuna now has access to Megumi's memories and could find out about Nobara, rendering this all moot, but I think Sukuna would have to actively search Megumi's memories for Nobara to find out anything about her. And why would he? Frankly I'd be surprised if he remembered her name.

Tbh I'm still not happy with Gege's decision to basically write Nobara out of over half the story and dragged this reveal out just so he could have a big reveal in the literal last fight of the series, Nobara will be lucky if she gets to be relevant in more than eight chapters even if she does come back. But at least this doesn't make everyone else seem like a bunch of assholes who never gave a shit about Nobara.

The audacity of Gege to give us this information and then just not elaborate any further.
