Can you tell my PhD was in gender socialisation and genderedstructures? Admittedly I focused more on masculinity but god I love dissecting anything to do with gender expectations and roles!

How have I only just noticed your marill plushies in the background? They're so cute. Such round little guys.

Great react! Regarding the pronunciation, I agree that Jujutsu doesn't come out as easily as saying "jiu jitsu" which is a real martial arts style. We've probably heard that said out in the real world while Jujutsu is made up. I personally don't care how you say it though, as someone who also doesn't speak Japanese I am sure I am butchering names/words from shows all the time haha

What i really like about JJK is how it approuches subjects with sincerity and that creates a lot of room to interpretation. Seeing someone who is trying to really dive in the themes of the silly fighting anime is really cool, love how you really give a fuck. The show will continue to grow even more on its themes and present new ones, you will see.

I might be wrong about this, but I really think the fact that Maki and Mai are twins makes everything even way more intense‼️ Twins often get treated like they’re basically one person split in two, right? 😅 People expect them to be exactly alike—same interests, same traits, same desires. From a young age, that creates this super strong sense of security for them, having someone they can always count on, like a built-in best friend. 👭 So, I can see why Mai felt so betrayed when Maki left the Zenin clan to prove herself as a strong jujutsu sorcerer. Mai’s content with being lower in the pecking order and living a normal life, as long as her sister was by her side. Losing that close bond must have hit her hard💔. Over time, her resentment deepened as she watched Maki climb higher and higher, while she struggled just to keep up. To reach Maki’s level, Mai will have to endure the same brutal trials, something she knows she isn’t cut out for.

Which is what I discussed so not sure if you watched my outro? But they were also never treated as the same person split. They were constantly contrasted but also treated as ill-omens due to them being twins. Our perception of twins in the West clearly differs to the East. We see them being compared and not in a good way. Mai even talks about having to hear about Maki's strength and her being seen as 'weak'. Which is also why Mai feels the need to undermine Maki because she's more than aware of where she lacks. The betrayal factors in but there's envy too. Mai can see curses and she's scared of them. Maki can't and she envies Maki for being 'braver'. Mai is limited by her technique and lower use of curse energy. Maki has no such limits in her supernatural strength. She envies Maki for that. I don't think it's resentment for how high Maki is climbing but sadness and envy. She just wants her sister back.

I could probably talk with you about your PhD for hours, and how you would dissect the current socio-political issues we face in this world. (Also help you with Japanese aspects lol). But I'm genuinely interested in the subject, especially since at a more immature time in my life, I was on the wrong side of a lot of those ideas, and as I got old(er), My mental detached itself from my situation and saw a lot of uncomfortable truths. (cough) but I digress :) you're cool, and I look forward to hearing more and moreof your persepctive.

Guru_Rick_

that maki and mai backstory is I don't know if tragic is the right word?? because I understand maki reason for leaving the clan but I also think maki didn't know what would happen to mai

DrSophieDarlingReacts

I definitely think you are right that tragic is correct! Seeing the rift develop between her and Mai when they were very close to each other is tragic. It's always heart breaking to see siblings driven apart by social circumstances :(

DrSophieDarlingReacts

Yeah I think what I find really interesting is that from what I know of Japan and it's very conversation approach to gendered structures - JJK seems to be openly criticising that ideology as one of the past which I adore. It's showing that we need to be more open to diversity and inclusion especially in how the writer creates strong, empowered women who share their experience whilst also giving us a glimpse into a traditional clan society that is patriarchal led at the expense of undermining Maki and Mai's value!

Anonlou

not to spam your comments: But as I have just now realised. It may be important to take notes on Abilities. As some abilities in Later seasons MADE NO SENSE to me because I forgot about them from Season 1. And it really confused me.

DrSophieDarlingReacts

Yeah I've somewhat accepted that I'm vibing with the story and the characters and themes more so than the abilities and power system haha!

Jim Nasium

Hey Sophie, what was your motivation to focus your studies on gender socialisation and genderedstructures (mainly masculinity)?

DrSophieDarlingReacts

I think it's always been a fascination from when I was young and not understanding why it was considered weird for me to like X because it wasn't a 'girls hobby' and that's just spawned into asking questions and being intrigued by the idea of socially structuring children into gender roles from childhood. My parents were never that way so I think it intrigued me more because I'd hear it from other people but never the ones raising me. My dad is also from Northern Ireland and I live here too. We had a civil conflict from 1968 to 1998 but the ramifications of violence being entrenched into the culture especially in paramilitary groups that promoted the idea that 'men were soldiers and fought for their country' whilst women stayed at home which have a LONG LASTING IMPACT on our country even today. Misogyny is on the increase and we're one of the worst places for domestic violence. Not to mention there's been some infamous cases where men have walked without charges from sexual assault based on their background. One of the attitudes we have that pervade is "boys will be boys" but I wanted to untangle why we've created a society in which this attitude contributes to the harm of women AND men especially as the male suicide rate and mental health crisis here is so severe with men. That is because of the culture of violence and promoting traditional ideas of masculinity that teach boys to not express themselves. It's really severe over here so I think it just became something I was passionate about because I saw the attitudes in my dad but his active effort not to pass that on to my brothers, and I wanted to both tackle how these ideas are socialised and engrained in my dad's generation but also how they are attempted to unpack it too. Hope that makes sense??

Jim Nasium

Makes total sense. Just like the animes we watch, everyone has a backstory that shaped who they are today and i wanted to know your story. I appreciate you being open about this. Thank you

I honestly find Nobara's lack of empathy for Mai to be so interesting. From a meta standpoint, it's often the girl in the trio who's written to be the empathetic one, especially in shonen stories written by men. So not only is Nobara sort of setting herself apart as a female sorcerer who refuses to let her worth be decided by ANYONE else, Gege's also setting her apart for us and our expectations for women in shonen manga. I'd go so far as to say she's actually the least emotional and empathetic of her, Yuji and Megumi, to an extent where I think her mindset in this episode is worthy of criticism. Maki's ability to be strong and kind despite her upbringing is ridiculously impressive, but someone being capable of pushing through such an awful situation shouldn't be used against others in the same situation who are being overwhelmed by it imo. Yet then again, to push that expectation on Nobara to be cognizant of that is once again probably missing the point. As Megumi put it, they're not trying to be heroes in the first place, and Nobara is far from the kind of person to advertise herself as a paragon of virtue. In that sense, I think she shows us that she truly doesn't need to be 'perfect' for us to identify with her and cheer for her just as much as we cheer for and love our golden boy Yuji. (Sorry for essay or if this comment seems over-explainy, I really love Nobara AND Mai as characters and have thought a lot about this episode so I wanted to nerd out lol. This is just my interpretation!)

JKK has by far one of the best female casts in shonen I love that the female characters actually get to be badass and cool without fan service or unnecessary romantic tropes. One of my friends said that JJK has tons of the opposite kind of fan service (fan service for women)😂 which I think is hilarious because it’s definitely true the author definitely knew what he was doing with characters like gojo and nanami

Mai and Maki hurt me so bad 😭 they make me want to explode I love them so much

Mickael Landry

I really hope Sophie you didn’t deal with too much exclusion at school for loving things that are often labeled as “masculine,” like video games🎮👾. It’s a shame how those stereotypes can hold people back. And speaking of breaking stereotypes, I totally get into romance novels :)! Books like Gone with the Wind and Letter from an Unknown Woman are just so captivating, right? If you haven't checked them out yet, I highly suggest giving them a read. 📚👩‍❤️‍👨💯 Let’s not forget about dancing! It’s such a fun way to express yourself, and honestly, it’s for EVERYONE! 💃🏻🕺🏽 More guys are getting into all kinds of dance styles these days, from hip-hop to ballet, and it’s awesome to see. I recall the iconic film Billy Elliot from 2000, where the main character dealt with a lot of bullying from his classmates and strong opposition from his family for wanting to follow his passion for ballet in his working-class mining town in Northern England. And fashion? Same it’s not just for girls! More and more guys are diving into fashion, designing their own clothes, and showing off their unique styles. 🪡🥼 It’s all about being true to ourselves and enjoying what we love without worrying about those outdated gender stereotypes. Let’s keep celebrating that! ✨

THIS THIS THIS I love this comment so much

Well also consider that Nobara's first meeting with Mai was her insulting her recently murdered friend and then attacking her, blasting her many times with a gun, even if it was "just" rubber bullets. If Mai had met Nobara on friendly terms she probably would feel some empathy towards the situation but Mai ruined any good will Nobara might have had from the get go by using her misfortune as an excuse to hurt others.

The Heavenly pact Maki got is the same pact as Mechamaru too , He got granted a power with no body and Maki got the body but no power

Jujutsu is not made up, it's an actual japanese word meaning "cursed technique" or "sorcery", you can go back to anime older than jjk and you'll hear the word being said in japanese, subs don't translate it in jjk because it makes it sound more special and iconic to the show

The_Venomous_Viper

This is a crazy thing to say. I never said the word didn't exist, I said Jujutsu is made up. You are basically being like if I said magic is made up and saying "actually the word magic exists in English." Magic isn't real. The word "ninjutsu" also is real, but I don't see people using Shadow Clones, Naruto's version is made up, just as JJK's version of Jujutsu is made up, unless you can make shikigami dogs which I'd like to see.

Hauxley Kernick

I think you guys forget she re watches the show while editing

DrSophieDarlingReacts

Unfortunately doesn't change the discussion but definitely going through in editing can help compound the ideas or change my perspective haha!
