>>280938876the specialness of his characterization lies in the smaller details. why do you think he lost to Toji? he thought Geto wouldn't be able to defend Amanai and lost his temper for a moment for that reason. and likewise, Geto didn't even set up curses behind because he trusted Gojo too much.
why do you think he lost to sukuna? Gege came out and explained that if Gojo didn't start thinking that he won and let his guard down, he would have been able to dodge the final slash.
from the first moment to the last, the dude never changed. he never believed he could ever lose. he never spammed binding vows like sukuna because the guy never needed them in the first place. and he basically won the fight even when he just jumped into it (only having lost the battle). there is no development here. also the way it's depicted is realistic. geto's reservedness and gojo's forthright nature contrast each other very well too.
