What the hell is going on!
Guys, don’t get me wrong, I’m so fine with complicated drama and situations happening between characters in rom-coms but this is a lot to take in! It really seems like they’re gonna take a big break with eachother!! I was anime only until I saw the infamous “Gojo crash out” panel in the manga a few months back and decided to speed-read it and get up to date and HOLY CRAP THERES A LOT.
Here’s what I think will happen: The cliffhanger we’re left with is the final test for Gojo to overcome. He’s about to be pushed away by Marin and the two are at an all time low in their relationship. She’s done her part by womaning up and confronting him about their current conflict, and now it’s on Gojo to take things from here. Gojo has always had issues expressing himself due to his trauma, and still is going through his inferiority complex. He’s now faced with the decision, will he break past his childhood trauma and go after what he really wants? (He wants Marin) As we saw his desire for Marin herself, not just the perfect cosplay for her, in the most recent couple of chapters. Now, this would be an incredible story beat where we finally, FINALLY see Gojo truly break free and become the man he’s always been able to be, showing Marin he can love her for who she is and appreciate her love for him. But this is also where the story could take a sick, dark turn and go onto a long winded, dragged out stupid conflict all because of poor communication. I’m really scared this will be dragged out and just ruin the tension’s reason for existence, only scaring us that Marin might actually get snatched away by someone else now that she’s reached a new height. Now, will I think this will happen? No. Gojo will obviously end up with Marin, if it doesn’t, the manga won’t preform well ending-wise with its fans, but this is such a good opportunity to really begin the end of this series and truly give Gojo (and Marin) the relationship they both want, need, and DEFINITELY deserve.
But anyways, what are your thoughts? Will Gojo break free from his trauma and tell Marin he sees that he loves her? Will they make amends? Will this conflict get dragged out? Will Marin also confess? Guess we’ll have to see in 107…
