You were magnificent, Hiromi Higuruma. I shall never forget you as long as I live.
I cannot stretch this enough, you are Hiromi Higuruma in anime analysis. People are so quickly to judge jjk for everything that isn't like the manga and conventional storytelling they are used to, and you just show how unfair that treatment is when regarging such a multifaceted piece of fiction. Of course jjk has its flaws, but you show its inner beauty that is hidden in a tapestry of lobotamy kaisen, and for that fucking thank you
I SECOND this. I love the fandoms, even though we never met IRL.
These channels feel like the town square or something
Except ppl are even quicker to defend and glaze jjk for everything and anything, gege gets far more grace than any other mangaka in jump rn
@@LizardKingRequiemall I heard of jjk ever since Gojo died is negativity, and you must have been living under a rock to not have heard all of the outright vitriol people have been giving Gege
Perfectly said. Every story will have flaws because people are flawed and people are who write, create stories.
@@dephony5648while that is true ever since go/jo te reverse has been also true. The glazing has gone exponentially high as hell. Both sides have become extremists.
In his previous court room trial his client is put to death by the justice system. In his last trial against Sukuna he's able to prove Yuji's innocence. Another parallel to how he was unburdened before dying.
This was one of my favourite characters in the culling games such an amzing character with an op technique
Came out of nowhere & stole all our hearts.
I always love adult characters subplots in shonen manga , they stand out when they're actually well written beyond the magic battles and laser beams
Higuruma and endeavor subplots were my favorites in their respective series
His chapters were always the best in the whole arc , everything is nuanced and perfectly sculptured
My favorite moment when he started the fight with yuji while telling him it feels good to kill people who annoy him but end it with confessing the truth , that killing the judges felt awful
Higaruma's impact on me was unexpected. I was a massive JJK when he was introduced to me, but, uniquely, I am also a law student. Seeing a lawyer in shonnen is something incredibly rare but very satisfying to encounter.
Higuruma is a genius, I personally think that he has the potential in the whole series
Higuruma's bathtub scene is iconic. Great spot on the play on words with his name and the word cog. Another great video and analysis
If you really think about it, Higuruma is a direct rebuttal to Gojo and Sukuna's internal logic surrounding power and strength. Those with might make right. Higuruma is a stoic but more importantly he was simply a human before the culling games. He had no innate talents like the Six Eyes and has the least experience amongst everyone. Higuruma even says to Yuji in their first encounter that he finds human flaws worth protecting. Indeed, his observation on proper governance and mechanisms to protect society from itself as a holistic body contradicts Sukuna's hedonism, individualism, and philosophy on radical self-improvement against near fatal challenges, at the cost of isolating yourself atop an ivory tower from humanity. Sukuna is a cannibal; he is an epicurean who simply wants to taste the strongest the world can offer him. He is not bound by personal reservations. Their personalities clash so completely that it even impressed Sukuna that a modern sorcerer could not only accomplish what he could in such a short amount of time but also stick to his personal moral codes. In fact, Sukuna is often fascinated with what compels the strong to reach greater heights: namely, through their own personal belief systems or ideology.
It's interesting to see sukuna being impressed with different characters. Sukuna was impressed by gojo because he and sukuna were almost the same. Both stand at the top and both are alone the only difference is gojo clings to humanity while sukuna doesn't, it impressed him to see someone like gojo nearly kill him multiple times. Sukuna was impressed by higuruma because of how higuruma thinks, the fact that a lawyer that is fighting for someone else nearly kills him. Sukuna was impressed by maki because of how different they are physically, sukuna was the top of jujutsu while maki was the height of humanity. Sukuna was impressed by yuta because he didn't expect someone like yuta could violate gojo's body like that just to kill sukuna, the act of desperation and becoming a monster impressed him.
Higuruma had such an impact in such a small time and can definitely see him as a future jujutsu teacher or something like that in the future if it works out for him plz Gege not him broh.
It might seem crazy what I’m about to say (I miss him so much)
his death is not confirmed tho@@vivianagodfrey5084
Higuruma is definitely one of my favorite characters. Having his cursed technique and domain based on a court of law is pretty unique and for a newer character he really stands out because of it. He also knew that he stood no chance against sukuna but still put himself out there for a chance of getting in a hit with the executioner’s sword. What a legend through and through
THE GEM HIMSELFFFFFF
big goattttttt
Characters like Higuruma showcase that it doesn’t matter how long a character appears on screen. It’s what the author does with them in that time that truly matters. Akutami is a genius fr 📿🙏🗿
Another detail about his death that I really loved was that he looked Yuji in the eyes in his final moments, and I think that that was made his death my favorite in the series so far.
I love your commentary on these JJK videos, especially character analysis. Higuruma is by far one of my favorite characters in the whole series despite the minimalist storytelling about him. Such an objective view on a subjective story ethos.
no one here knows that he’s back yet >__
i do >:3
I love his fight with sukuna. It showed who he was, he wasnt a lawyer trapped by an unforgiving society. He was a man, who defended his client to the end, he gave it his best shot and was the 2nd person to almost put the devil on death's door. He fought to defend someone.
What a SPECTACULAR video! Seriously me appreciate the little things in gege's writing and characterization more. You have a serious knack for analysis and your content is always so informative and insightful
Never stop makin vids dawg 🫶🏾
Don’t plan to bro 🙏🏽
I feel he’s still alive. I’m so used to One Piece and their theme of “NO ONE REALLY DIES EXCEPT FOR ACE AND WHITEBEARD”
Hope and cope
Ay. U forgot my boi Pedro
I swear people who are both fans of op and jjk are the only sane ones. There is a balance of too many death too suddenlg and no death even if reaper comes for u.
If i was strictly following one i would really have problem with either of those.
@@aritrasaha441Jjk is more logical than one piece more characters will die soon in Jjk but in one piece no one fckig dies
@@naushabatalat1332ye fr i was following one piece for a long time but when a character actually does die its insanely sad
I was heavily disappointed by his death(?). But he's a phenomenal character.
Its less like nobara because characters straight up say he’s dead. Rather than the vagueness of nobara
This was a fantastic analysis. Even though I have some differing interpreations, your interpretations are so well-founded that I see nothing to criticize, and that's the kind of conversation I would love to see and experience more of around this series. Personally, I see Higuruma passing his sword on to Yuji as a mistake, of giving into his guilt and dying when he should atone with his life, not his death. Because his technique does end up flickering out at the last moment, meaning his theory that techniques grow stronger in death was wrong.
Characters who choose to die to reach some goal in this story are consistently punished, not rewarded, from Nanami going straight back into the jaws of hell to try and rescue Megumi - who, unbeknownst to Nanami, had already been rescued - to the way Yuji's own self-destructive mentality meant he played right into Sukuna's hands and gave him the means to take over Megumi's body instead. Higuruma wanted to die to atone for his sins, but his death won't move the needle. If he'd tried harder to live, then he might have made things right through his own living efforts. And in trying to die as a gambit to enhance his technique and pass it on to Yuji, he ended up reducing the chances of victory instead.
However, like I said, you've built such a strong case for your interpretation that even though it's different from mine, I still like it a lot and can totally see that perspective too. A curse can help someone live, after all, just like Nanami told Gojo in that dying vision. Like how Yuji's cog mentality, as corrosive as it was, as much harm as it did to him, kept him alive and moving forward. It nearly destroyed him, but if he hadn't adopted it, he might not have survived. Even if his grandfather's words were a curse, they kept his feet on this path when deviating in any way would have killed him or seen him lose sight of his identity and ideals.
Once again: fantastic analysis. I look forward to seeing more and more of your insights into this and other series.
I rarely comment on youtube videos but have gotten into the JJK hole in the last month so here we are. This is such a well researched commentary and analysis!! besides the fact that it’s a breath of fresh air after seeing the superficial discourse around this story for way too many times in way too many threads and leaks and a fandom not reading it’s own manga or not looking at the bigger picture, your take is such a skilful blend of formal visual analysis and narrative content-so so well done, truly congrats!!
Blessed my sub feed
higuruma is MUCH deeper than you think
I am multi instrumentalist I just picked it up and grew within a year to playing drums,bass,guitar and my teacher stated that I had 'IT" So I got cocky and I remeber 8th grade my frie ds friend just BLEW ME AWAY..I wasn't the best within the group. And it got me so upset....from that moment I knew raw talent isn't enough to be GOATED I had to hone my skill. So natural talents are real..but you can acquire what you lack. So it's balancing act
Some don't have the capability. You need a strong determination they really the key.
Football players go into navy SEAL training and quit within a day or so and the one who didn't have the determination left..we need both to truly be talented
YOUR GOATED PEAK CONTENT
he's such an interesting character (that bathtub scene got me feelin somn)
8:16 the surprise on my face when i saw this music being played
Man anirap really went internationacial
So about that send off.
He sadly *sacrificed his life for **nothing
*if sukuna said he died, i'm gonna say he died too
**the executioner's sword did nothing; the only time it touched sukuna, it was a fake-out (a cheap one too) and then it crumbled (even though curses generally stronger after death, acc to the chapter prior)
Oh well ig
The use of his powers are some of the best I’ve seen, and how they tie into his past make him my favorite character. He was a defense lawyer whose powers turned him into a prosecutor. He then began abusing his powers omniscience to force people to be guilty weather or not they were innocent only to have it thrown in his face when an innocent boy is nearly put to death by his own hands. Then that being brought back as the fulcrum of their plan to take out Sukuna was icing on the cake.
this video finna do numbers off the thumbnail alone
lmao didn't expect to see anirap in this
loved the video btw, and your voice.
Your analysis is mindblowingly good!
You were magnificent Radman I shall remember this video as long as I live
ok so on the topic of talent vs hard work, I'm always reminded of Michael Phelps. he's the most decorated Olympian of all time that's no small feat. He obviously worked ridiculously hard, BUT he also has some things going for him, He has an abnormally large lung capacity, abnormally large hands and feet, and a genetic condition that causes him to get less exhausted than others. Did he have to work hard no doubt in my mind, but it seems like he was just born to be a swimmer.
Great video as usual.
On unrelated note do you plan on making a kenpachi or an orihime analysis
I've made a Kenpachi analysis, I'm planning another one relatively soon-ish. Orihime analysis could happen at some point but no current plans.
Mannnn your video is great
its interesting thematically when sukuna is tried, an objectively terrible person escapes justice because of a technicality in the law
Yo i saw that edit there, anirap's great
99.9% conviction EVEN IF cherry picked..that's nuts. Economic/ideology is my bread and butter. It's upsetting how many are truly oppressed..and how lucky we are.Many ask the wrong question "why is there evil? " the true question is "why is there good?"
also looking foward to seeing higuruma get animated, judgeman is going to look to freaky
The title is a bit of a stretch, wouldn't you say? He is by no means underrated. You could probably give that title to someone like Reggie, Uro, or Dagon. Not someone who the fanbase universally recognizes as one of the best characters Gege has written.
Definitely not universally recognized as one of Gege's best characters lol. The title is definitely overstated though, I should change it to something more tame
@@R7dman Oh? I've seen nothing but praise for him in the fandom. His fight and introduction being considered one of the best bits of the Culling Games even when the arc was being read week to week.
Higurama became a top 5 character for me and I reslly hope he's still alive
Lemme get more Hunter X Hunter theory king
I need to tap back into the theory bag... what about HxH analysis though
@@R7dman Anything bro your videos are amazing whatever you decide to do I’m sure to be there ‼️
@@R7dmanwould much prefer analysis im ngl!
W Radman‼️
Hey! Great vid. Could you do a Yuta Okkotsu analysis, please☺
Gege makes you love a certain character and then he kills em off.
I want to see your yuta analysis so muchh
I’m so sad about Higuruma’s conclusion, it’s not BAD, but that could have been done BETTER,btw, magnificent video!
He didn’t want the burden of conclusions or didn’t think he had the right
Not related but eagerly and patiently waiting for your JoJo Part 2 Battle Tendencies review
One of the reasons i love higaruma, is how he's similar to be
(And no, please dont mind me being slightly dramatic, Its a habit of mine. )
One of the manga panels in this video i remember, is the panel with higaruma saying "i could never leave stuff alone, even as a kid". I'm a kid myself, so i can't speak gor whoever i will be when I'm older, but throughout my life, ive always been unable to-- well leave anything alone. Even recently, I've gotten in some drama at school that i haven't directly said to the main person involved. It was all because of me refusing to let ome person keep my friend suffering forever. Even now. I'm constantly punished for my choice, but I still refuse to let my friend go. I feel powerless to help,but I've continued to try whatever i can.
Yeah no thats all i wanted to say, ig slightly a vent? Anyways bye.
Ahhh i rly like the video, you speak a lot of sense, tho pls whats the song at 17:00 ? Its so familiar 😭
sukuna praised him so you he has the dawg in him
this lawyer guy is op
Gege gotta stop making these hot troubled men. They're so fine, and for what?
I agree
Finally, we talk about Matt Murdock's Japanese brother.
You know how in the ACE ATTORNEY games you have to find your client innocent while also finding the true criminal in each case? Yeah that 99% conviction rate (at the time) is the reason that has to happen in that way
Because you've proved who the true guilty one is so there's no need for an appeal
why am I making this connection? because I was playing Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 with Phoenix Wright and thought "you could switch these two up and barely noticed the difference"
there are glaring differences of course but you just did what I just did right? Higuruma is just an ace attorney (I'm not sorry)
I NEEEEDDDD THE ORCHESTRA THAT STARTS AT 21:00
Trisha's Lullaby from FMA
Hey, kinda rare to see brazilian anime rap in non brazilian media
Whats the nujabes sounding lofi instrumental playing by the end of the video?
Damn the amount of japanese Teen that gonna wish to he a lawyer 😂
underrated (cooked)
Yugioh 5Ds ost in a JJK video
My husband
I'd rather have Hiromi Higuruma revived than Gojo, cause.... he was great... no, he was the BEST.
Well...
You got your wish🗣️
Must be great being a defense lawyer in japan ... There must be zero expectations 🤣
If the law was at 100% power, it may cause me a little trouble
But would you get lose the case?
Nah I'd win
Higuruma wins the case
PLEAAASE THE SONG AT 17:00 BLUD 😭😭😭
5:36 Klaus schwab cough cough
"Underrated" the guy who has been one of the most popular since he was introduced
Not really, he's been kind of a sleeper hit right until he died.
FiJi the 🐐
seems like you could do with a comment lad
Who cares if gojo comes back if higuruma comes back I’m gonna send 20 million gazillion yen to gege
I didn't care about Gojo till he fought Sukuna and I had to meet his Fandom. Hate Gojo now. Spent so much time explaining that this isn't Jojo's where any ability can counter another, and that ~*some people*~ are born with broken, over powered, out of universe, abilities and no amount of planning or work outside of just being lucky and stronger will beat it.
Not happy with how Gojo's story went and how that was handled with power escalation, and now I'm just reading it wondering if it'll end on a believable outcome.
So this video was so sobering vs most people's consumption of the fiction.
Your first 36 sec is how i feel about the series. This isn’t a manga you should judge from its week to week ify week drop. This has to be absorbed after its completion. Only then will we be truly able to judge the series and get the full impact of all the choices made by this author. Bleach took 10 years to do that which we give less time than Mappa to finish !!!!………………just saying.😂
Of course he's underrated 'cause, like many others in the series, he just dies before doing anything.
gege ruin higuruma ending with chapter 269
Soy ese.
“gorjor” bro you pronounced every other character name without the accent idk why you’re doing it for gojo but it’s cringe
Higuruma was the most overrated character until we figured out his CT was completely useless
Wait how was his ct useless?
