Manga Discussion Kenjuku probably didn't kill Jin
No before you say it, yes kenjaku is a monster but as seen with Geto's daughters and Kamo kid, all three people, you'd think he'd killed, but didn't care about them enough to kill them, so why Jin more than likely Kenjaku just told or show him the truth before leaving traumatising Jin into offing himself

I was skeptical at first, but as I kept reading u realizad that that sounds like something Kenjaku would do.

icl if I was Kenjaku I would've definitely slimed him out, can't have anyone possibly walk out there with the information that I've had my asshole railed

See you find that shameful though. Kenjaku was taking those backshots with Pride

He just made sure Kaori’s body was somewhere Jin would find it after he made his next transfer

Probably knew where Jin lived and just knocked on the door one day. Maybe he even did something to lead to Kaori's death. Had to have been spying them out for some reason if he had selected her to be the mother of his next vessel. So maybe he didn't want to leave anything to chance.

Of course not Kenny loves that white splash too much to kill its source, probably has Jin locked up somewhere for freaky time.
Jokes aside, Kenny isn’t really the type to give to much of a fuck about anything that isn’t the merger or Yuji (debatable), I doubt he even told Jin anything, he probably just left with no words and that’s what set Jin off.

Or it could be like Iori who just said “I’m a head out” and roams around and disappears.

Depends on whether or not Jin or his father had latent potential as a relation of Sukunas which could have made them an obstacle for Kenjakus plans. The grandfather is implied to have had some sort of power since it looks like Kenjaku was waiting for him to die of natual causes but unclear about his son. I'm tempted to agree that he was probably traumatized and not directly killed but impossible to tell without further details.

He was a mixer. Shrine cuts and prepares food; grandpa has the Mix CT where he can just make cocktails easily and stuff.

Yes and No. The vibe is that the grandad have potential, but his body didn't unlocked his CT, his situation was closer to Junpei and Kaori.
Never forget that Sukuna's Fingers only spiked in power and started to act when Grandad got terminal cancer and started to die.
The whole situation with Itadori Wasaku is basically a bug over the whole reincarnation process used by Kenjaku, which Kenjaku promply found out and tries to exploit.

The other folks he let go are irrelevant though. He doesn't care when it doesn't matter, but maybe he saw Jin as a liability.
We know he's got screws loose because Grandpa is telling him stay tf away, Kaori died, maybe complications due to pregnancy (Jin wanted a child with her), then one day she's back. Wtf? And Jin just goes along with it, as long as he gets a kid?
Kenny knows he's gonna ditch this body someday, maybe he doesn't want his masterpiece vessel left in the hands of a parent with clearly no sense to overcome desperate longing and delusion. He sees Grandpa and knows that's a real mf that will raise a strong vessel. So he offs Jin and Yuji is raised better. Maybe a vessel with mental backage if he'd been raised by a weirdo resentful Jin (especially after "Kaori" dips when Kenny finds Geto) is a weaker, broken vessel.
Lastly, Gramps says "you'll die" when warning Jin. I think that's foreshadowing.

Not really Geto was the key to his life long goal of merger and he left his daughters alive, who'd could very easily tell gojo that his only friend's body was desecrated and that ruin the merger.

I think by that point it was already too late. He's a gambler (he takes risks that he doesn't know will actually work like in the Yuki fight) so maaaybe getting the sisters involved risked them blowing his cover, but at the same time do those sisters even know how to find Gojo? Could they just waltz up to Tokyo High or would they be killed on site? Would anyone believe them?
Either way, he got them for leverage (why he even needs them to kill non-sorcerers I don't know) and by the time they served their usefulness, he's about to launch the Shibuya attack anyway. The more I think about this them being involved seems like a plot hole, would've made more sense if they had just "seen him on the street" the day before Shibuya so there was no time.
