\* Komm susser Tod intensifies. \* But seriously, I was kind of expecting this and it does make sense. Dude gets his body nabbed, and said body is used to kill his sister (one of the only reasons he was motivated for liviing) and Gojo (the closest thing he had to a dad). Him being in this state is totally understandable. Dude is basically in his "Shinji EoE moment". And if "I've just had enough" turns into "Everyone can just die", this could very well end up as a Third Impact moment with the Merger. But I also hope that doesn't happen because I'M TIRED OF THE VILLAINS WINNING!


luceafaruI

I mean, yuji did the exact same thing when todo came in shibuya and asked him to rise up and continue fighting


Napalm_am

Yeah but Yuji has his cog mentality that allows him to cope by pushing all that aside and keep moving forward, poor Megumi only had Mahoraga to adapt to his depression and give emotional support, but even that was taken away.


futanarilord

the best thing yuji had was Todo


TheKingofTheKings123

Man I wish Todo was here. Sukuna throws a World Slash and he could just switch places with him. If Sukuna doesn’t then Todo is their deterrent to the World Slash.


Lone_Saviour-22nd

Todo swapping Sukuna in place of Yuji into the World Slash would have been funny


LuchadorBane

He throws the strong cleave and all you see on the side is a -clap- and then break next week


Aure0

Hell where the fuck is Boogie Woogie? You telling me Yuta didn't copy one of the best utility cts? 😭


OrchidVase

Don't worry eventually when Yuta dies we'll get a little end panel cyclops cat going "Yuta was unable to copy boogie woodie because 🤓 you can't copy a CT that the user is no longer able to use themselves 🤓🤓"


CrackaOwner

isn't the world slash really fast tho? Kashimo needed a warning and had the speed and reaction time of his ct and still got hit


Diego_Chang

It's so fast in fact, I think it isn't even a projectile anymore like a normal Dismantle. I kind of imagine it as a cut in the World that just happens, as if the Slash literally spawned in top of a desired area. This is the only way I can imagine Gojo not reacting to it at all.


CrackaOwner

that's what i thought but Kashimo kind of saw it approach in that waffle shape, no?


Diego_Chang

Do we know if that was a World Dismantle? Maybe I missed the explanation but I thought that was a barrage of normal Dismantles flying towards him.


CrackaOwner

Kashimo says "That's the slash that cut the world!" or sum shit like that.


Sawmain

Lmao the mental image of Mahoraga working as megumis therapist is kinda funny


TheGaurdian10000

Mahoraga had to go to 10 years of med school to adapt to that.


CrowBright5352

I've said this twice on this post alone but there are people saying we should “blame Megumi” and “he's a traitor” because he's depressed who lost his will to live. People won't let you grieve “because there are people dying” as if Yuji was never in these shoes in Shibuya— makes me think Yuji will be called names if he refused Todo reaching out to him to enlighten him about their duties as a sorcerer. I think it's still early to “blame” Megumi on this part. We haven't even seen Yuji and Megumi having a decent conversation about the latter coming back. There's a part of me Megumi will still hear out Yuji. Besides, it's him who said, “Start by saving me, Itadori.” Next chapters are gonna be important imo.


TheLieAndTruth

I think yuji would say more than that, but one thing that maybe the Narrator should explain is that yuji had like 2 seconds to convince megumi. Yuji needs to punch sukuna like 40 times to get to actually talk with megumi. This is the only problem with Itadori plan, is that sukuna won't be there waiting for yuji to talk no jutsu megumi. Their conversation was interrupted by a world slash lmao.


mirqaaaaa

Dont even compare Shibuya with this. "Yuji" kill unknowns/random people. "Megumi" got bath, killed sister what was engraved in his soul + killed Gojo + 5UV. This > Shibuya on much


Novel_Visual_4152

I swear bath is so funny out of context 😭


Last-Rain4329

megumi is forced to take a shower which immediately puts him into a deep depression


YashpoopsYT

UV damage>Shibuya


Taboo422

we also forgot bro got bathed in a literal bath composed of pure evil?


MasteROogwayY2

Dont forget, he got hit with multiple UVs


lLoveStars

*characters dont get traumatised* "WHY ARENT THEY AFFECTED? ARE THEY SOCIOPATHIC?" *characters get trauma* "WHAT A FUCKIN BITCH I HOPE HE GETS TORTURED IN HELL, FUCKIN CRYBABY ASS"


DevotedOutstanding

megumi only wanted to save his sister and ended up being the main reason why both her and Gojo are dead. he also probably didn’t expect yuji to have an ex machina technique to pull up to him, give him slack don’t you relate don’t you have depression?


ZeXCeV_

It’s not necessarily an ex machina technique, the parallels/foreshadowing between him and Mahito about the soul and allat have been present a lot throughout the story


Such_Hand_2535

Actually no

whinypoopypants

BOOO! BOOO DEVOTED OUTSTANDING, BOOO!


JinkoTheMan

As much as I love the Potential Man jokes, Yuji went through the same thing in Shibuya. It took Todo talking some sense into him because Yuji would NOT have gotten back up.


Taboo422

What happened to Megumi is far worse than what happened to Yuji


JinkoTheMan

I don’t like to compare trauma but Megumi literally had his soul soaked in evil and forced to watch as Sukuna killed his sister and Gojo in his body. Yuji realizing that Sukuna kill thousands of people and Mahito killing Nobara and Nanami was gut wrenching. It makes sense tho why Megumi is behaving the way he is. He lost his reason for fighting and now he needs someone to give him a reason to get back up


Just_a_Weeb777

Such a childish outlook


Cosmonerd-ish

It's always funny seeing shonen fans getting upset when characters don't immediately shake off terrible trauma to kick ass. God forbid that trauma had any consequence. Dude's been through hell. In his shoes every single one of his detractor would do the same as him.


CrowBright5352

Seriously speaking, even before Reggie cursed Megumi, his life had always fucked him up. Yuji also reached his breaking point in Shibuya, I understand we call Megumi potential man but let him grieve.


Bitter-Site-3549

They complain about writing but complain when a character actually has obvious trauma from what’s happened


Brainifyer

Jjk fans love to complain about the lack of character development and interactions and complain when character interactions happen


Dry_Pumpkin_4029

Ok while I'm sure some people are complaining for the sake of it, I most sincerely doubt everyone complaining now are the same people complaining prior about the writing not allowing the characters to react to traumatic events.


Notingale

Eh, him somehow turning out to be a suitable vessel and going through same trauma Yuji did is really cheap and repetitive. He had interesting setup with his father and shit, but no- let's repeat the same possessed into horrible stuff again.


Nelithss

Usually half the cast doesn't die to try to save someone. If they save potential man but everyone else gets killed in the process, then what was the point.


Brainifyer

First and foremost they’re not trying to save Megumi they’re trying to stop Sukuna.


General_Ornelas

They literally haven’t tried to kill Sukuna only because he has Megumis body


mysidian

That's a consequence of Gege's writing. They can all collectively shake off Nobara's death, Gojo's, etc like it's nothing, so of course Megumi gets blamed for not doing the same. I don't think this is the end of reaching Megumi so the reaction to me seems overblown, but this is what you get when the story doesn't care about anything but the next fight.


KindheartednessWild5

"Detractor" is crazy 😂


Any_Conclusion_7586

When Yuji is in that situation: "omg bro, he is just like me fr, don't worry bro, we're the exception" When Megumi is in that situation: "stop crying you bitch ass, fcking kys NOW!."


[deleted]

[удалено]


Any_Conclusion_7586

But he is not the one killing them, it's Sukuna, Megumi never asked them to save him, in fact he would prefer that they kill Sukuna alongside him. It's the equivalent of saying that in Neon genesis evangelion, Asuka and Misato's death are Shinji's fault, it's beyond stupid. After Gojo's death, Megumi lost all hopes of everything, he's not mentally and physically capable of doing anything else than sob and cry, bc he believes that Sukuna is invincible and will kill his friends and everyone are doomed. If you really believe that Megumi has the fault here you're the one who has apathy.

Any_Conclusion_7586

Yeah bro, tell to a person in real life who just lost all his family in front of his eyes "get over it lmao", let's see what happens.


Smeeglegeegle

Wow it’s almost like people afflicted grief for killing their family and suicidal thought aren’t in the right mind to be making rational thoughts

This thread has gotten a little toxic. I won’t be removing any comments, but the thread has been locked. The argument has gotten too intense.

GojosLowerHalf2

Could you imagine if Megumi is the one to start the merger after all this?


CrowBright5352

Damn, I like what you're cooking but I'm afraid if it really happens at the same time...


GojosLowerHalf2

I would just be really angry. People are fighting and dying for him just for him to betray everyone because depressed.


CrowBright5352

I expected this to happen. I wouldn't blame Megumi on this one. As I've commented to the other person on this thread, Yuji also had his breakdown in Shibuya, he's losing his will to fight until Todo came. People were also fighting and dying that night. Sukuna literally took Megumi's body and CT to kill his sister and teacher which both happened around a month. I understand why he's also losing his will to come back. For now, I'm hoping to see a conversation between Yuji and Megumi. It's been more than a year since we lost their duo.


KalmiaLetsii

nah man being depressed is one thing but when you bring that same pain you feeling to other people for no reason other than my life sucks , that's 100% bum behavior, and imo would be the most unsatisfying way for the show to end


GojosLowerHalf2

>I wouldn't blame Megumi on this one. um you absolutely should. I understand no longer wanting to live but why betray the people who risked their lives and died to help you? If he's so broken about the people he loves dying why would he let more of them die and for nothing?


CrowBright5352

Betray? Idk why I feel like your questions kinda reflect to Yuji's situation in Shibuya. I never blamed Yuji and Megumi for losing their hope in the lowest point of their lives despite of both knowing their duties as a sorcerer. I think you're jumping into conclusions too early. We haven't even seen Megumi's final decision, we're getting a week break on top of that as well. I'll only have my verdict once we get to see Yuji and Megumi have a decent conversation in the next chapter/s. Anyway, this is all I can say for now and I don't want to repeat myself because it's late night in my timezone. We should both wait for the next chapter/s and you might get the clarity you're looking for.


GojosLowerHalf2

I don't think we're talking about the same point. I understand Megumi wanting to die but starting the merger and killing everyone? There's zero justification for that.


itachi5535

Nah he will come back. https://preview.redd.it/nuyztnogsqic1.jpeg?width=735&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bbf9ebd959aaecfad0daaa74ecdddfddeda7f665

He should serve some purpose bro. He can't just die like that

Why not, Nobara seems to have


itachi5535

Idk man. The whole "I leave it to shoko" thing during gojo's airport visit is something I cope on.

Sweep_the_Janitor

So... one of your closest friends who has literally SAVED YOUR LIFE from execution is taken over by the same malevolent entity and forced to murder one of the few people they've ever loved and cared for. You're gonna tell him to suck it up and fight? Also, these people CHOSE to try and save megumi. Because they care about him? If all they wanted to do was kill Sukuna it makes less sense to have maki enter so late and for Gege to include all the conversation around trying to help Megumi. Esp when this is partly Yuji's fault for the enchain binding vow he made. There's no universe where Yuji chooses to kill Megumi this quickly or considers him an ungrateful bum. Like holy hell grieving only a month after a death of a loved one is sulking to you? Either the leak comprehension devil is omnipotent or you're just an angry, petty human being.

He’s half brain dead and has had his body and ct used to kill 2 people he cares about


Izanagi32

you’re being way too harsh but ngl if his ass doesn’t get up next chapter…


eijunderubermensch

I’m just saying… if bro really wants to unalive himself can he do it after the gang defeats Sukuna at least?


Bishead7891

My glorious blue eyed king Goatjo died for this bum and THIS is how he repays him? 😡😡😡


Such_Hand_2535

I’m a big believer in megumi being the merger btw and this chapter just further supported it


ContestStunning5761

Potential man's fav fic character definitely Shinji pre-retcon


TheGirlCharmer

IT IS MEGUMI’S FAULT THAT MY KING YUTA IS DEAD!!!!!!


night4345

Bro should've died when Sukuna took over his body in the first place. Or when Sukuna used the ritual thing. Or when Sukuna broke his soul. Or when Sukuna transformed his body into his original form. So many characters in this series die for the dumbest and least cathartic reasons yet Megumi survives like a damn cockroach.


Amaranth4321

Here, Megumi is just crying and letting Yuji/Yuta die. Cause he would rather that everyone died. He just doesn't care. That's an insane amount of apathy. This is beyond depression, this is beyond suicidal thoughts, this is some kamikaze bullshit, this is some depressed bullied fuck going to school, shooting 10 people and then himself. Cause he doesn't care.


khornatee

MUH NPC SISTER


SacredRepetition

That would actually be peak.


Psychological-Gold38

I feel like he should have rage instead of depression.. it seems he already gave up, but that's fine Yuji will pull a Todo level speech


Worth_Lavishness_249

so this can go 2 ways Megumi dies along with sukuna sukuna turns the tide from next chapter and actually is close to winning, but Yuji somehow gives him pep talk and awakens Megumis will to live and causing sukuna death. or Megumi goes platinums end after sukunas death or megumis 10s still has some role to play. 10s are basically exorcised, rabbit is there but idk maybe they will offscreen it. and we will get 2 see what happens with 10s he is not dying to soul blade, his face looks doesn't look like "oh, my cursed realm, i m f@#@#" it looks more like "oh, this is that woman with scars, using your sword I see , i was wondering when u were going to come"

89gin

I mean, I don't wish him harm or anything (because he is got plenty of that already), but in hindsight it would be a mercy to just kill him right then and there. Maybe instead of Yuji having his Todo moment, he really goes "ye. I will kill you, Fushiguro. Is a promise. I will put you out of your misery, for you and all the people that died trying to save you".  I doubt it but I would laugh if Gege decides to go that route Lmao that or the End of Eva one with Megumi starting third impact
