GoJichi

"I'm just a guy who ran away. No, I didn't even have the courage to do that myself. Somebody else allowed me to run. Even then, the strongest man in world tells me that he trusts me. There's no way I could let him down. I will answer his trust even if it kills me."

Fanon
GoJichi is a rarepair within the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom. Fans ship them together because they have known each other for a long time. In canon these two characters have quite a complicated relationship. Gojo likes to bully Ijichi into doing things for him. For example, Gojo bullies Ijichi into quitting becoming a sorcerer which Ijichi is grateful for. Moreover Gojo can be callous and tactless with Ijichi wich leads him to interpret Gojo's intentions with malice. Despite this, Gojo doesn't like that Ijichi seems to think quite low of him. Gojo greatly trusts Ijichi, which is something Ijichi is surprised to learn.
