that's surprising
I'm not a big fan of Gojo's character for the exact reasons you stated. I don't like that he acts so unnaturally nonchalant in every situation and seems to go back and forth between the childish troll and arrogant powerful sorcerer. But I think the backstory made me like Gojo more (and was also my second favourite JJK arc).
(wow what is this. I'm defending Gojo? Come see this @Light D Lamperouge , the sky might as well be falling)
I think acting childish and arrogant is normal for a teenager that was gifted with a very strong ability and has also never really been challenged since no one comes close to his abilities. Then when he fought Toji, he -- the strongest sorcerer in the current era -- literally got HUMBLED by a non-curse user. He wasn't able to protect the girl. He also almost got killed by someone that should he should of outmatched against and then later, his best friend also turned into a wanted criminal because of these events. It's one of the few times in the series where we got to see Gojo struggle, fail, overcome and take things seriously. It made his character seem so much more three dimensional.
(alright stop reading Light, I'm back to slandering Gojo)
But what I find disappointing is that I haven't really felt any character development from Gojo from those events. His character went back to the same as he was before, overconfident, arrogant and doesn't take anything seriously. Only change is that he was kinda like "Oh shit" when he saw fake Geto. But then when we see him again now that he's imprisoned he's back to the weirdly nonchalant "well oopsies" attitude.

I guess with the fact that Gojo did fail and struggle in the backstory, showing how he's not perfect despite being "The Strongest" is something to appreciate in the backstory itself. But the fact that nothing came out of it for Gojo's actual character makes the backstory overall disappointing to me.
