Can He Handle The Spice Tho

Idk if this counts as a meta, but I wanted to kind of share my thoughts on smth.

I think the core difference between Karma and Terasaka at the start of the series is their values. Bc yeah you would think they’re both careless delinquents who don’t listen for shit, but there’s a very important and specific reason why Terasaka’s actions anger Karma so much.

From the start of the series, we know that Karma has a strong rule of not hurting innocent people. That’s why he got sent to 3-E, beats up bullies, etc. And what Terasaka does continually at first is put other’s lives in danger for his own reasons. He almost sacrificed Nagisa, and he puts his own classmates in harm’s way in Vision Time.

This goes completely against Karma’s morals. The last thing Karma ever wants is for innocent people to get hurt. Even in his own episode, he never hurts his classmates in all his attempts to kill Koro. In the end, when he jumps off the cliff, it goes to show that the only life he is fully willing to sacrifice or harm for a greater reason is his own.

Meanwhile, Terasaka had done the opposite. But keep in mind, I’m not calling him a bad person. Terasaka is just an example of a child who has been failed by the education system and left to believe he’s a good-for-nothing. He literally coped with those feelings by embracing them, even if it meant having to put himself over others. He did take accountability in canon and changed for the better.

Karma and Terasaka are foils in the sense that they each undergo a huge transformation in character, and endure things for positive growth. I just thought it was interesting to point out a key difference between them that explains how Terasaka’s actions must’ve really impacted Karma in that episode.

Help a Family in Need💔

I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Mohamad S., who is facing one of the most challenging times of his life. Mohamad is 37 years old and left his homeland in 2015 in search of a safer and better future. He’s a kind, hardworking man, and his small family has always been his greatest priority.

Living abroad, Mohamad has recently endured unimaginable loss and financial strain. Amidst the ongoing conflict in his homeland, his mother passed away, leaving behind his sister and her five young children—the last remaining members of his immediate family.

As the situation worsened, Mohamad managed to help his sister and her children escape to safety in Egypt, covering their immediate needs and securing a temporary refuge for them. Since then, he has been fully responsible for providing everything they need to survive during this transition.

In his efforts to support his family and cope with this devastating loss, Mohamad has found himself deeply in debt. To make matters even more difficult, he recently underwent knee surgery, which limits his ability to return to work for the foreseeable future. This has made it even harder for him to manage his financial responsibilities and the pressing need to provide his family with a stable future.

Mohamad is now working to bring his sister and her five children to join him in Belgium, where he hopes they can find stability and opportunity after all they’ve endured. This transition, however, requires significant resources that he is currently unable to meet alone.

For privacy reasons, we are not sharing Mohamad’s full name, as he has chosen to keep his identity discreet. While he initially refused the idea of asking for help, I couldn’t stand by and watch him struggle alone. I insisted on doing this for him because he deserves a chance to overcome these challenges.

Your contribution will help Mohamad repay the debt incurred during this difficult time, cover ongoing living expenses for his family, and assist with the costs involved in bringing them safely to Belgium.

Mohamad has been a good friend of mine for years, and I’ve always admired his resilience and generosity. Any support, no matter the size, will make an incredible difference in helping Mohamad and his family rebuild their lives after these painful experiences.

Thank you for reading his story and considering helping a man who has always done everything he can for his loved ones.

沙和尚の話が書きたかっただけです。

沙和尚は流沙河で九人の坊主を食べたらしいので、天竺への道中で三蔵を食べたいと思う時があるのではないだろうかと思って。でも食べないで我慢をする沙悟浄が偉いという。

三蔵の慈悲で血くらいなら吸われてもいいかと沙和尚に吸わせても良い。というかエロい。
