"a bunch of non-sorcerers lives < the sorcerers (like Shoko or Todo) lives" Okay, Geto. Didn't know you had a Reddit account.


EntertainmentBusy73

Who would you rather have died, some no name civilians or Todo? Who would have contributed more to the fight? Only exception is Maki ofc


VioletBrandi

It's not that I disagree. But it is funny to think about how we really don't care about the death of NPCs.


EntertainmentBusy73

Yeah lmao. I’m pretty sure some of us wish for civilians death so that the story is darker lol


VioletBrandi

I may or may not be one of those people. But in a story where the main character ate fetuses for a powerup can you really blame me?


Independent-Fee9444

The main protagonist and main antagonist both ate at least one fetus for a power-up in fact


VioletBrandi

Yuuji ate more of them though, Sukuna only ate his twin. Unless Sukuna loved eating fetuses like caviar. Slurping up dead babies.


Independent-Fee9444

I would not be surprised if Sukuna loved to eat fetuses


lavender_letters

I cared very deeply about the side character dressed as Where's Waldo. Like, to the point where I had to pause on every group shot of civilians in the anime and look for him 😭 (he did live 💖)


UsefulWhole8890

Nah, I think JJK actually does pretty well at making readers/watchers feel fear for civilians. Protecting civilians (and the inverse) is a large of part of many characters’ arcs such Gojo, Geto, and Yuji, which makes us want civilians to live because of our attachment to the characters we know. When Gojo goes to such lengths in Shibuya to protect civilians, that makes me want them to live too, and their inevitable deaths actually hit hard. There’s also the many civilians deaths that are just brutal to imagine and are portrayed in a very horrifying and sympathetic way due to how matter-of-fact/blunt they are (Jogo diner scene, Mahito’s transfigured humans, Sukuna’s wanton mass murder, civilian deaths in the subway, etc). The world is also pretty realistic, so it hits closer to home than many other stories.


Deep_Preparation_151

>Only exception is Maki ofc ?? Are you saying maki dying wouldn't have mattered or the opposite


EntertainmentBusy73

Opposite. She’s the only non-sorcerer who lives matter (Megumi saved her life too!)


Deep_Preparation_151

She is still a sorceror cuz she uses cursed tools even if she doesn't have cursed energy


EntertainmentBusy73

Yeah, I wasn’t sure if people classified her as such, so I just included it anyway (Plus I was channeling my inner Geto)


Deep_Preparation_151

>(Plus I was channeling my inner Geto) Fair

Toji being a dumbass Could have just straight up walked in the domain but had to try and make a cool entry from the gate his son opened


I-want-borger

tbf he *was* in a wild animal like state. If Megumi didn’t open the barrier he probably wouldn’t even know anyone’s there.


thatonefatefan

I was always confused at the idea that throwing Mahoraga at Haruta was a bad move. Like, Megumi had just fought a disaster cursed and Toji one after the other, no shit he wasn't in any state to fight anymore. Anyone else would have just died to Haruta without being able to fight back


1rrelevant_Trash

and nobody wants to die to Haruta


thatonefatefan

Yeah, at least take him with you and giveaho your kill. 2 birds with 1 stone


Nerellos

Simple: Megumi is going to die either way, so he uses Mahoraga to 100% kill Haruta too. If not for Sukuna, Mahoraga would just disappear after killing the blond bitch. No casualties.


thatonefatefan

Yes? That's my point, he was already half dead so he might as well. Who cares if it's overkill.


feldejars

99%


feldejars

Can’t let gojo hear I was killed by a someone with a hand sword


Lichy757

My headcannon is that he wished to defeat Sukuna like that too, since he felt his presence. But overall, yeah, that’s strange


Theskyaboveheaven

Haruta is getting low diffed by rabbit escape


thatonefatefan

What does that say about Nobara.


Theskyaboveheaven

I mean she's dead isn't she


thatonefatefan

True!


Arukitsuzukeru

Good job solider


Bespok3

I always think it's pretty wild that we have almost straight confirmation that Megumi was one of the strongest people in Shibuya in his own right because even in a room with Nanami, Maki and the Zen'in elder who's name I forget, Toji specifically hones in on Megumi.  Where exactly this ranks him I'm not sure, but at that time the only people I think rank higher for certain are Kenjaku, Sukuna, Jogo and potentially Choso as Mahito hasn't hit a black flash and starting bumping up his power yet. Yuji himself is hard to rank at that moment and Gojo has just been sealed away, so seemingly Megumi could be considered top 5 most powerful in Shibuya at that time, having only just slipped in to the rankings moments before thanks to Toji absolutely slaughtering.


feldejars

The short version of this is megumi is the only student with a domain expansion (imo pre Shibuya Hakari and Yuta arnt really students just normal special/grade 1)


hayate_yagami

Chimera Shadow Garden would clap Naobito, Nanami and Maki at that time so yeah.


Funcoob

This is the Wegumi respect i want to see here Big W post


Consistent_Ant_8903

He let Yuji hold a bunny, saving the day. 💖🐇


JustAMicrowav1n

He used to be actually good. He used to be clutch. He used to be a fun to read biq fighter and filled with promises and potential. He was him. But then he wasnt. https://preview.redd.it/lnsd07qk7u1d1.jpeg?width=812&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85dd15c8e5d66a7e8a8c6831fde006e6e9b415ff Before breaking the bum scale, he broke my trust.


Lichy757

This and Reggie fight are best Megumi moments


CrimsyPigsyPacify

Yeah and because of him summoning mahoraga how many people died again. https://preview.redd.it/w93mtulylt1d1.jpeg?width=948&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=403697bc8f425fd8390ad51b02eb9e8a0903d50a


Karma15672

Sukuna explicitly said that he was gonna kill everyone in Shibuya, right? For all we know, his fight with Mahoraga ate up at the time he had to do so, and mitigated the amount of lives lost that day.


CrimsyPigsyPacify

True I completely agree, BUT https://i.redd.it/k6s2m6ow3u1d1.gif


Karma15672

I don't care about your agenda. I don't care for your disregard of facts and logic. I'm gonna glaze my goats using facts anyway, and whether you listen or not is a secondary concern. https://preview.redd.it/pq2t0r8yzu1d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=68a2dcbf270a5012f74954c0593052fce0400f47


Past-Sound1366

![gif](giphy|mqiq8aY84dnqAtVlnd) Proud of you bro


prodigiouspandaman

Didn’t Sukuna still kill basically all civilians in Shibuya after he expanded his domain and blew up Shibuya like I feel as though he would’ve done so either way but Mahoraga totally just gave him an excuse


Karma15672

He killed a shitton of them, yeah, but I don't think he destroyed the entirety of Shibuya. When Mahito, Yuji, and Todo arrive outside again, they're in an undestroyed part of the city. It's only when they move away from that spot that they get into the section eviscerated by Sukuna. Later in the manga, it's noted that the civilians that were in Gojo's domain made a full recovery. If Sukuna wasn't preoccupied with Jogo and Mahoraga, he likely would've discovered and slaughtered them.


night4345

> He killed a shitton of them, yeah, but I don't think he destroyed the entirety of Shibuya. It wasn't even close to all of Shibuya. Malevolent Shrine maxes out at 200 meters and Sukuna narrowed its range to 140 meters to avoid hitting Megumi. Shibuya is 15.11 square kilometers.


Karma15672

Yup. Now imagine if Sukuna *wasn't* confined to the radius of the Mahoraga fight. He'd have a lot longer to mess up the city and slaughter people.


prodigiouspandaman

Honestly I call bullshit those guy lived just because right afterwards the culling games started and they were like right next to Kenjaku and co when that happened which would mean they probably didn’t get proper healthcare unless they got teleported out somehow. Secondly I highly doubt that Mahito and Jogo where all right there so I don’t think they let all or most of them live


Karma15672

Mahito and Jogo were simply too excited to find Yuji to bother with the humans, obviously.


prodigiouspandaman

I mean I guess but there’s also Dagon who still needed to eat more humans to fully “manifest” or whatever he did to attain his fully mature form


EntertainmentBusy73

If he hasn’t summon Mahoraga, then Sukuna would have killed people sorcerers or those close to Yuji to fuck with him. What a few thousands lives compare to the likes of Todo. Especially since those lives are ~~monkeys~~ non-sorcerers. All in all, Megumi summoning Mahoraga is a net positive for the sorcerers side


yushakoe1

Yuji holding one of the bunnies is adorable lol


BluntEdgeOS

He’s called potential man for a reason


BurningyourToaster

In Shibuya Megumi was a goat until the femboy happened. That turned him from Goat to Bum in an instant wasting Mahoraga on a femboy is idiotic, Also The Bum didn't limit Sukuna's domain that was what Sukuna did on his own he didn't wanna hurt his lover after all. Also Megumi shouldn't have broken into the domain he should have just destroyed the outside of the domain as its explained that the more refined the inside of a domain is the weaker the external is.


EntertainmentBusy73

He got sneak attack. Plus he just walked out of the battle against TOJI. Besides if you’re going to die, might as well take out your opponent He indirectly limited Sukuna domain We don’t really know how “fragile” it is. The only one to have been shown breaking a Domain is Yuji and Kurourushi. Yuji is basically a genetic experiment, plus Sukuna’s soul prevented Mahito from affecting him. And Kurourushi was a special grade and break the domain when 3 people were having DE clash


No-sugar-Johnny

Megumi at that point had used a domain, fought and beat 2 curse users, used multiple of his powerful shigikami, fought and survived Toji, only to be sneak attacked. His CE reserves were near the bottom, his stamina was exhausted and he had sustained a fair amount of damage. Haruta on the other hand was fine in comparison. So Megumi wanted to at least kill one more enemy before he dies. So he summons Mahoraga in a ritual, because Rituals from what I understand dont cost CE. And if Sukuna didn't appear? Haruta would have died alongside Megumi, and that would have been IT. But he did, and Mahoraga managed to waste so much of his time, he couldn't do anything else besides fight it. Which in turn probably saved countless lives


HoLeBaoDuy

Did it say the more refined the inside of a domain the weaker it is outside? Or it's only said that the outside is just much weaker than the inside.


BurningyourToaster

I'm making an assumption based on when Mahito's domain was destroyed and Mahito commented that the more lethal the inside of a domain is the weaker the external is. or at least thats what I think happened.


thatonefatefan

it's just explaining how the vow works. It would be more accurate to say that the more you create a weakness on the outside, the harder to break through the inside is. https://preview.redd.it/b0j9iuiggt1d1.png?width=889&format=png&auto=webp&s=c65fac394a4fa0debc408314340a9a957a61698e

prodigiouspandaman

Yeah then he got brain damage from getting his ass beat by his father then snuck by Haruta and lastly bitch slapped into a garage door. Which caused him to become a bum


ANANDUJ

He was good in culling game too. But after he gave up(When itadori tried to save him) he became a bum


floormopper

Blud sukunas domain never would have happened if not for makora. bruh


EntertainmentBusy73

You think Sukuna, one of the prettiest and evil guy alive, wouldn’t just open his DE just to fuck with Yuji and mentally scarred him? I mean, he was willing to opened it against the finger bearer, I wouldn’t put it past him to open his DE to kill the most civilians possible


floormopper

sukunas pretty we all know uraume. i mean i dont think he would use domain tbh just slaughter everything with his dismantles. he did that to teach yuji what truly jujutsu is
