Geto’s clothing closely resembles the ceremonial robes of buddhist monks during the Heian period. This Heian era is also known as the golden age of jujutsu sorcerers and when Ryomen Sukuna was recognized as the king of curses.

Coincidentally, the rise of esoteric buddhism in Japan also occured during the Heian period. Jujutsu Kaisen is deeply connected to buddhism, the most notable example is that quotation of Buddha by Gojo.

“In the Heavens above and on the Earth below, I alone am the honored one.”

Now let’s deconstruct Geto’s clothing.

i. the first layer: undergarments:

The undergarment (usually white) helps to add an elegant look, as the collar can be seen beneath the outermost layer. It is constructed of the tabi (socks), the momohiki (long pants) and the hada-juban (undershirt)

ii. the foundation garment: a folded towel is added to the waist area (for women it’s added to the breast area), the foundation garment helps to add some shape to the clothing

iii. the second layer: nagagi or the kimono foundation

iv. the third layer: the hakama ( either full-cut trousers or seperated skirt ) and the haori (hip or thigh length jacket)

v. the outermost layer:

We have arrived to the most interesting part of Geto’s outfit, which is the outermost layer.

The vest-like garment Geto wears is called the 五条袈裟 or the gojogesa.  The term gesa in China and Japan refers to the outermost layer itself. In the the later periods of Japan where fine fabrics were available these robes were made using strips of said fabrics. The distinction between these robes was by the number of strips, hence gojogesa = 5 strips of fabric.

Here’s compilation of some theme songs Akutami-sensei choose for his characters. Source is volume 3 bonus pages. It’s become pretty long, so I put in under cut.

It seems pretty significant to me that in season 2 we have Jayce meeting with Mel again and completely rejecting her touch, shutting down their previous relationship and bringing up the economic manipulation that took place, and saying "I've changed." / "I've been confused about a lot of things." while the camera pans down to the gem Viktor gave him embedded in his arm. It reads like comphet.

They are addressing the way her empath/mirror powers work. this is subtext. Also, that one shot of apocalypse Jayce looking into the fire and watching the flames burn away mel's visage to reveal a specter of viktor with his lips parted................ that's loaded.

Again when cait asks him "Viktor is at the center of all this, isn't he?" jayce has a flashback of viktor SMILING DOWN AT HIM we never saw in ep6 and in season 1 this same type of character-reread scene was given to caitvi, implying THEIR romantic feelings. Vi remembers cait in bed looking much more vulnerable than previous footage. this is loaded! This is romantic! It matters to me!!!!!

Well his primary objective in Chapter 4 was to stay alive. Rather than trying to get everyone but Gonta killed, it was actually tokeep as many of the group alive as possible. But as it turns out, keeping himself alive and most of the group alive was a much harder task than it sounds.

What most people fail to acknowledge about Chapter 4 is thatthings began going wrong the moment Miumade up her mind to try and kill Ouma, not when Ouma countered back. Becauselike every culprit who consciously makes the decision to attempt murder in theDR series, at the very moment Miu decided she had to get out of the school nomatter what it took, she also decided she was willing to sacrifice everyoneelse’s lives in order to do so.
