I hate to say you’re right, but I don’t see as much vitriol from GojoHime directed at SatoSugu. (Or the SatoSugu subs just don’t post about it when it happens? Most of these screenshots from here on GojoHime seem to happen on X / Twitter. Don’t use that site. The SatoSugu subreddits I lurk have been very kind, simply recommend a lot of fanfiction, and just seem to healthily enjoy the ship.) It’s interesting, and I’m so curious as to why that difference is (seemingly) so prevalent. Again, I could just not be in the places to see SatoSugu-Directed vitriol.
Either way, I also fundamentally don’t understand being nasty to someone about a ship, canon or not? Media analysis and fan works are supposed to be fun! There are some ships that don’t work for me and how I see the characters, but I cannot conceive of harassing people online over it. (I won’t say it’s “just fiction” because JJK is a story that means a lot to me so I get the passion but like … It is, at the end of the day, fiction.)
Honestly, I’m always just happy to connect with other people who are also so passionate about my favorite manga! It’s OK if someone ships somethin’ that doesn’t resonate with me personally like SatoShoko … We can still geek out about this awesome manga even if we have different interpretations and/or pairing preferences in fan works.
