The Glory of Kento Nanami

[@andrewogunmokun9309]

Kento Nanami is my favorite character in the series. He’s just a man who’s trying to secure the bag and held down be people above him. He’s relatable character with really relatable problems that many people have to deal with on a daily basis.

Nanami for me and one of the best characters in the series,So much so that I only started to love the series when it appeared. He is one of the few who treats children like children.

[@heath6802]

Yeah! For once in a shounen, kids aren’t just child soldiers! Nanami actively reminded Yuuji that not everything is always his responsibility and that the adults around him should be the ones to ultimately be in control of the situation. “Being a child is not a sin” That line solidified the fact Nanami is a wonderful character. He’s cold and calculating on the outside, but he well and truly cares for the people around him even if his face barely showed it. Rip Nanamin, couldn’t escape the trope of fatherly figures perishing in front of their protege’s eyes

[@mordi9286]

"Being a child is not a sin" and "Im not going to lecture a person who saved my life" It was these two quotes that really got me invested into him.

[@raghavdeshpande2905]

[@onlylexy]

Thank you for this!!!!! This is why I love him so much! He is like the only sensible person in Shonen anime PERIOD! When he hit me with that line I got chills because he is was of the rare few adults who acknowledges that these main characters are CHILDREN! And that even though they may be strong adults are supposed to be there so that they don't have to be. Sorta like Awizawa in BNHA.

[@blacklite911]

I love Kento because he’s logical but not irrationally logical where he doesn’t understand normal people or emotions. He’s just very meticulous and has no tolerance for anything that will waste his time or make him have to put more effort in than necessary. A man of principle like myself.

[@zealotoftheorchard9853]

Nanamin is the equivalent of that serious students who works nine jobs. Is captain of the school football team. Spends his free time working out and helping charity. Helps you out with your homework in exchange of leaving him alone. And most importantly never smiles. God I love Nanamin.

Kento nanami is the embodyment of the quote "happiness isn't a goal, it's a byproduct of living a good life"

[@Naietz]

Kento = build man = man who builds the main character. That's why he's the mentor character to Itadori. Also Nanami: Nana = 7, mi can refer to mitsu = 3 as well.

[@christina4558]

i thought so too! straight think mi stands for mitsu lol

"Kento" means "cure for depression " or "rise of happiness". Welp, there you go folks. This explains why Nanami is everyone's comfort character and why you could feel such reassurance coming from this man

He’s honestly the most respectable adult figure we’ve seen so far in the Jujutsu world. As much as I love Gojo, he tends to do a lot of reckless things with the kids while Nanami tries to take on as much of the responsibility and burden as possible.

[@mhamieyoo]

His death was super sad when I read it, because he is another person that Yuji cared about and died in front of his eyes by the same pos of a curse. Cant wait to cry myself to oblivion when that part gets animated.

[@kimguir303]

Yea the deaths on shibuya was great and very well done for me especially Jugo he got praised by Sukuna then realised that his goal was to become human or something similir is pretty sad also Nobara I guess if she dies that was pretty decent death

A part of me feels there is also possibly a connection between his techinque and being a working man, because I am used to jobs where you start at 7am and end at 3pm, so a 7 to 3 worker if you will.

[@deadsoon]

After seeing how his old partner used to be, personality wise, I can see why he was so distant and abrasive to Yūji when they first met. They're eerily similar and he didn't want to get attached again. Itadori still had that bright-eyed innocence and he wanted to protect it. It's very sad yet sweet.

“Built like a brick shit house” That is the line that I love the most that you’ve said

[@Sauflapluie]

I'm thinking about the fact that the first time Mahito tried to change Nanami's soul nothing happened... Indeed, Mahito said too him that he protected unconsciously his soul. In my opinion, it's just the absolute example of the will of Nanami to protect people. Is genuinely a kind person and that means his soul is well built, so hard to destroy. The thing that is telling me this is because Mahito already said that he could kill Itadori's soul many times, and this because Yuji is still young and learning, his soul is still WEAK instead of Nanami's.

I like how the author gives a crumb of bread to the fans, we lost Togi but got the evolution of maki which basically makes it equivalent to toji, we lost Nanami but got Higuruma which essentially inherits the nanami ideals as well as the idea to put some of his work inside his cursed techniques.

[@artypyrec4186]

I'm glad and upset that introduced such as well rounded and likeable but flawed character but still kill him off. They couldve just made him the perfect teacher character, killed him off and called it a day but the balance between negative aspect of their personality with the minuscule positives really make them likeable. Even with the advance curse spirits. Arrogant, annoying but with that slight spark of likeability, with the exemption of Yuji who is all around a decent person, makes you like them more.

One thing I particularly like about those kinds of videos is the part of breaking apart the name. Like the individual meanings of the single characters. Now I'm wondering...is there maybe a website of some kind where you can look up stuff like this? Maybe a website where you give in the name and the site translates the single characters or the other way around. Since I don't know anything about kanji and stuff, but I would like to involve that stuff when it comes to naming OCs.

[@lightningppsky4842]

Its not so much about finding a website. Its more to which kanji is used on the person's name.

[@Kaelicles]

The 'mi' in 'Nanami' is also homophonous with the native Japanese word for three, which is 'mi' (that character can be found in Miwa's name). So, Nanami's last name fully references the Ratio Technique if you read between the lines.
