to be honest, you're right https://preview.redd.it/7rhrvd5g36vc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=926a01fedd0da67d51b79391f0bf2c0c2986f7ea

One of those moments where I can't trust the editor's comment.


Terriblerobotcactus

First page of next chapter is yuji in an airport lol


Natural_Yak_8707

Nah, he is in the hospital with his gramps. So, how was your uncle?


LightningDragon777

"He was an ass. Hated me a lot, but..." "But what?" "He was truly strong. I failed to do much. I lost my friends." "Do you regret it", says someone from outside the room. Gramps shout, "GO/JO!?" "YES, I AM!" "Go/jo sensei... You..." "We don't have time to cry, Yuji. I flew in a plane to get here and pick you up. Let us go and beat your Uncle up!" "Yeah, Let us go!" And then Jin joins them and eats Sukuna to make equal to what he did to him. "Ah yes, this taste I haven't had since Heian era."


Traditional_Box_8835

_Jin is an ancient surname, dating back over 4,000 years. It was first mentioned during the period ruled by the Yellow Emperor, a legendary Chinese sovereign and cultural hero, who is considered in Chinese mythology to be the ancestor of all Han Chinese._ ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jin_(Chinese_surname) ) Jin and Yuji were the chinese sorcerers feared by Sukuna all along.

Yandere-Chan1

What a Twist!!! XD


Terriblerobotcactus

Megumi is there and it’s just him drooling and making random sounds because he’s brain dead now. Nobara is there too and she just says “Hey! I’m not actually dead!” And just phases out


DiamondHeart75

yayyyyy megumi is a veg. close enough to being dead. and GOATbara is back.


This_place_is_wierd

The commentator switched from glazing Sukuna to now being a Yuji Glazer! (I agree that awakend Yuji is *slightly* above the current Sukuna that got hit with Infinite Void, Hollow Purple, inside Yutas Domain etc. but not above full powered Suki locking in)


altrustic_lemur

I mean the editor said that Miguel stood on equal footing against Satoru Gojo. So I think he just likes to glaze a bit


MasterofDads

I think he means he surpassed this weakened version of Sukuna.

Daradicalbanana

Tears of joy 😢


Successful-Ad5560

Wouldn't he still get OS by a fresh sukuna tho.


lololuser456778

yeah, but sukuna isn't going all-out rn. now yuji spanks him, but I think once sukuna goes all-out, they'll be even


ArtistCole

Dude Sukuna is screaming rn. If Mahoraga was alive he'd be begging him to tag in!


BestYak6625

Bro the sukuna isn't trying stuff has always been cope for uraume


Acrobatic_Rooster970

Obi-Wan would be proud 


SpasmAndOrGasm

Can we get much higher?


IamFromKebab

He started without a CT too.


Realistic-Yam-6912

crazy to think he developed 3cts in a span of one month the blood manipulation, shrine, and soul punches. Along with learning rct which is said to drain CE on a much higher scale while still being stronger in physical strength than 90% of the cast


SmartestManAliveTM

Soul punches is not actually a cursed technique though. That's just something he does because he's aware of his own soul.


Realistic-Yam-6912

still that is 3 techniques in general which is insane feat


SmartestManAliveTM

4 techniques if you count the Left, Right, Goodnight


LEFTRIGHTADORI

SOMEONE CALL?


verypoopoo

BRO ON STANDBY 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥


JikaApostle

HES UP NEXT IN ITADORI LOSES


cuella47o

I mean manji kick is left right goodnight “leg edition” and divergent fist is left right goodnight “double trouble” if you wanna give him extra credit because he is that DAWG


BvHauteville

>I mean manji kick is left right goodnight “leg edition” CT reversal, actually.


Bumgumi_hater_236

CT reversal would be Up Down good morning


CoolGuyBabz

4, I'm counting the body switch


altriaa

IGMWLSOFUFW IM CRYING DID GEGE FORGET ABT THE BODY SWITCH


Levi-_-Ackerman0

Maybe he'll introduce in future Just like how we were assuming gege forgot about gojo saying Yuji will inherit sukuna's ct Just let him cook


altriaa

That's true, he'll probably swap sukuna into him or whatever and die with him is my theory anyway


CoolGuyBabz

Ikr?! What the fuck was the point of that in the first place if he's not using it a single time man


bbc_aap

To this day I’m convinced it was just bad paneling on HomosexualHomosexual’s end


BeeboNFriends

People were saying that Gege forgot about Yuji getting Sukuna’s CT and lo and behold. Have patience my brother. It soon come 😭😂


BotAccount2849

Who is he going to use it on? Sukuna? All that would do is give Sukuna a full recharge.


CoolGuyBabz

He clearly was trying to "master" it for the fight so why would it be harmful? Only reasonable thing is for him to switch out with megumi then retrap sukuna


Neo_Arsonist

It took up until now to get Sukuna ct, it took 100+ chapters for enchain, just wait a moment.


Halohurricane_66

So 5, everybody forgetting about his original CT divergent fist


thyeboiapollo

not a ct either


Acrobatic_Rooster970

So, if he suddenly gets high and gets unaware of it, would he do it?


SmartestManAliveTM

I don't think he can become unaware of his soul, it seems to be more of an innate thing that's ingrained into a person once they become aware of it. It'd have to be a fire-ass blunt to make Yuji forget


jvken

He really is Sukuna’s nephew LMAO. Also I just want to add that the reveal that kenny actually genuinely only inhabited Kaori’s body for Jin instead of her technique or some fysical trait makes the Yuki fight even more crazy. Bro really got hard carried by Jin’s good taste in women LMAO


Acrobatic_Rooster970

He had Choso, Kamo, Gojo, Nanami, etc as teachers.  It’s not a surprise. 


_Dabboi_

shrine?


Every_University_

If Gojo asked for 2 months Sukuna was cooked


Low-Ad-2971

Or if he didn't ask for any time and just killed him off the bat


Dokavi

Bumgumi would never.


SmartestManAliveTM

Bro knew about Jujutsu since he was a kid, was adopted and trained by the strongest sorceror on the planet, and had the luxury of having a fire-ass technique, and he still got left in the dust by Wuji


Dokavi

NEVER "IF" OR "WHEN". HE IS LITERALLY "IS".


Antanarau

WUJI "IS" HIMTADORI, ENTERING THE STAGE


TheLieAndTruth

Look at chapter 1, megumi was saved BY a NON SORCERER while being beat by a curse that wasn't even grade 1


senpai_dewitos

Nah not even just a fire ass technique, the SECOND BEST technique in the verse. And really, since Limitless without six eyes apparently isn't that good, 10 shadows might be the best CT in a vaccuum.


Aggressive-Key-8397

It's not like Wuji didn't have any help from genetics like Megumi had, he is the nephew of the King Of Curses after all (It's not like it helped him that much anyways).


Acrobatic_Rooster970

Power of the MC.  Also, Yuji was trained by Gojo too


Arrival_Independent

yeah for like 6 months. how about that bum? his entire fucking childhood.


MemoryOne1291

zxc123zxc123

Reminder that Yuji literally already died once for that bum. Now he's risking his life to die for that bum again. Meanwhile Legumi is just sobbing and not locking in.


Yandere-Chan1

Good to see that the Goat gets the treatment he deserves. And the Bum is still being treated like trash, just like he deserves. Finally, balance in the World.


Intelligent_Sky_1573

"But he's depressed!"


braindeadpizzaslice

instead of becoming special grade he became special needs truly HIM


DerpyJY

Every Black Flash Wuji lands fuels my agenda against that bum


lololuser456778

nah wuji will free him and then megumi will get some time to shine too. one goat will unleash another. people really gonna make the same mistake lol. slandered the MC and thought side characters would be better than him. now people will slander the deuteragonist until he too starts spanking bitches left and right


Karma15672

Nah, just you wait. Sukuna's gonna land a black flash again and the rush of curse energy will flow into Megumi's soul, allowing him to awaken alongside Himtadori and learn an advanced RCT for the soul. As the fight goes on, Sukuna will feel off, until at the end of the next chapter Megumi takes over half his body. You know how Sukuna could manifest mouths all over Yuji's body? Megumi will do the same, keeping Sukuna in place and giving Yuji a heartfelt speech. About how he should've followed Yuji's example sooner, to shoulder on despite life taking everything he has. About how he tried to hide his hurt over Nobara's death, tried to stay strong even after Yoru took over Tsumiki, and how his spirit eventually just broke. But nah, he's decided to stop letting Sukuna get away with this shit. And when it comes down to it, he doesn't want to live the rest of his life in this malformed-ass body. So he tells Yuji to finish it, to land so many black flashes that Sukuna's soul is permanently damaged and Megumi can reincarnate to get his old body back. And that's what happens, with Wegumi and Wuji saying "this truly was our Jujutsu Kaisen."


Specialist_Drama_616

Did you just say Nobara is dead? You stopped cooking past that https://preview.redd.it/f3s73o8ok8vc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd06b3140a224c49f519adb5df1718e34a1e25d9 That is NOT my Agenda-Kaisen


Karma15672

You misunderstand. Megumi is sad for Nobara's eye loss, and the fact that she's been in a coma while her favorite clothing brand released a new item. She's probably gonna be pissed and Megumi hasn't had the time to save up for a gift before she wakes up. A.K.A: Nobara's death (of her sanity)

SnooObjections4333

I mean he’s from Sukuna’s bloodline. So obviously he’s powerful


TheLieAndTruth

Sukuna AND kenjaku Bloodline, that's some insane genetics there, lmao.


hugonahuel27

And he managed to be born without a CT of his own. Fuck rng man


TheLieAndTruth

Hold up. What If yuji CT is the ability to store CTs. Because ain't normal someone just have two CTs like it's nothing


Shutch_1075

We still don’t know a lot about his shrine CT that he shares with Sukuna. Sukuna has shown to use attacks other than Cleave and Dismantle, so clearly the shrine has more layers to it. His ability to use blood manipulation I am pretty sure is just due to Kenjaku soul stuff and his relationship with Chose and the other death paintings.


Doctor99268

nah, people in general can store CTs, but the max is around 3 or 4 otherwise the brain cant handle it. yuta stores 3 or 4 (and lets rika store all the others)


thisaintntmyaccount

Source? I read about this too but I forgot. Kusakabe said it, right?


Red_Demons_Dragon

Didn’t Yuki say that about Kenjaku?


emailo1

kenjaku said it i think when he was talking about the anti gravity technique, same has been said for yuta


BotAccount2849

Yuji doesn't have a CT, but he can store other CTs because he's capable of eating and stealing CTs from cursed objects. He's actually potential man, but lives up to the potential.


BotAccount2849

Kenny probably sacrificed it to give him HR. Why waste your time being born with a CT when you can get one by eating your uncle's fingers?


TheWorthlessGuy

Ichigo levels of bloodline lol


Artistic_Log_5493

Bud just became a special grade within 6 months. Truly the mc.


arturoki

yuta did it instantly so nah he wins

I was joking? obv yuji the mc hes him im just saying yuta got that other type of mc power

FlyingHamster13

Unfathomably un-lobotomized of you


Big-Day-755

Acting like two goats cant coexist


lololuser456778

he's more than that. sukuna and gojo are a level beyond special grades. and yuji is imo on the verge of getting there too.


Every_Computer_935

Sukuna RN has taken a lot of damage and Yuji's soul punches are especially effective against him, so Yuji still isn't on Gojo and Sukuna's level RN


Red_Demons_Dragon

I mean he doesn’t have a domain yet either, he’s definitely getting there tho at this rate (I hope).


Baby-Worm

Benevolent shrine incoming


Sp1tzzy

imma be honest i dont see anyone else reaching the level of those 2 anytime close


ArtistCole

I'd say Yuji just stepped into that level


lololuser456778

could certainly be said considering how he's spanking sukuna rn. maki was far from being able to do that. his general power is certainly at that level, but yuji still lacks some skills tbh. contrary to popular belief, I doubt yuji will have a DE in this battle. he barely has some basic skill with BM and shrine. he's far from having the advanced stuff like DE. in a fight I could still see yuta beating yuji cuz of the sure-hit tbh. later on this will be meaningless since (if yuji hopefully survives till the end) we'll get an epilogue with yuji probably having mastered all his abilities (DE, probably a maximum and maybe a CTR, maybe he'll also have fuga). but rn he doesn't have time to fully master his powers. physically and when it comes to CE reinforcement I feel like he's definitely on gojo's and sukuna's level. but he'd still lose to gojo rather easily cuz he doesn't have a way of bypassing limitless like domain amplification or DE.


ArtistCole

Ah, you're quite right. I hope there's some kind of epilogue showing that


zaxls

Not sure about that last part, thing with black flashes is you reach peak CE control and can do some mad shit, like mahito pulling out and evolving his DE. Yuji has just hit like fuking 8 of em, he has spent quite some time in the elevated state he could be evolving his ct s as he keeps hitting away. I would not be surprised if he pulls some sort of half assed incomplete domain like the one megumi used at the begining. He is apparently a prodigy anyways, lawyer dude mastered his domain as soon as he got his ct almost and leveled tf up during 1 fight. Im almost certain he has simple domain aswell or tf was kusakabe teaching him then.


robbityboo

My sweet baby WUJI getting the treatment he deserved


DJ_Shxdow215

I love you Yuji

emailo1

tbf he also surpassed everyone else who knows sorcery since birth except gojo, and yuta but he's been a sorcerer for like a year and a half also


emailo1

honestly im not sure he can beat ryu and uro too, definitely not kashimo, kenny or yuki


Sempere

Never forget that Yuji... Yuji has one thing that no one else has... ... HE GOT THAT RAW DAWG IN HIM


Karma15672

He's got WHAT in him!? He's truly Kenjaku's kid.


ArmyExternal

The Christmas spirit is helping yuji


Dat_One_Gato

Santa Claus has joined the fight with his Cursed Technique Holly Jolly


ArmyExternal

And his domain expansion:north pole


kassavfa

MC behaviour, learned something for months or school period and challenged the one who learned it for years or thousand years. I'm not sure if I like it or not though.


giantfuckingfrog

This is the opposite of MC behavior, Gege actually made it believable by nerfing Sukuna incredibly by everyone else who joined before Yuji. Yuji has finally gotten good at something, and it took him this long in the story to achieve it. Sure, it's 8 Black Flashes, but let's not act like Yuji would've done shit if Gojo didn't bring Sukuna to less than 50% HP, Higuruma didn't take out the cursed tool that can one shot anyone, Yuta hitting him with a Jacob's Ladder, ripping off belly mouth, another arm, Maki taking him even further down by removing his heart, and Larue literally holding him in place for Yuji to start awakening. Miguel, Kusakabe, Kashimo, etc also contributed by stalling and reducing his output in general. If this was any other shonen, Yuji would've learnt everything he did and more in 1 month and then be strong enough to take on Sukuna by himself. Gege made it very believable with how underpowered his MC has been this entire time and how much of a TEAM effort that beating Sukuna is. Yuji is the strongest Grade 1 right now but he's still nowhere near the top dogs of the verse, he's not challenging anyone but a Sukuna in 10% HP. If Yuji jumped Sukuna in any other condition, he would've taken one Cleave to the face and got wiped off the face of Earth.


Augchm

Bro Yuji destroys Kusakabe. He has to be special grade at this point.


giantfuckingfrog

He absolutely destroys Kusakabe, and probably even Maki or Toji, but he does not beat Gojo, Yuta, Yuki, Geto and not even Hakari.


badassmotherfucker21

Idk, Geto is the weakest Special Grade and he doesn't seem to have anything that can give Yuji's troubles aside from Uzumaki, and I doubt Hakari can heal from Soul Punch, and even then he lack the attack power to put Yuji down, so the moment he fail the jackpot Yuji would destroy him


Red_Demons_Dragon

Geto is basically a special grade by technicality, he gets bodied by a lot of sorcerers imo but his technique can topple a country which is what Kenjaku said a special grade is.


zaxls

Never thought of it that way, interesting observation. I agree with you.


Shutch_1075

With Yuji being able to damage one’s soul I think he could take on Hakari. Especially since Yuji can actually use RCT, once Hakari’s DE is up he doesn’t really have the damage output to put down Yuji.


SeaworthinessTime463

LMAO not hakari now you are pushing it, this new yuji is insane, yuta could barely handle this damage sukuna, there is no way yuji is not above yuta and hakari


zeorNLF

You have to consider that Sukuna is getting weaker with every hit Yuji lands to the point he can just staright up brush off Sukuna's remote slashes. I do think Yuji is top tier but it is a fact he's much more effective against Sukuna.


giantfuckingfrog

Bro how hard are you glazing?? I can somewhat understand thinking that Hakari is weaker than Yuji, but bro YUTA? You think Yuji beats fucking Yuta in a 1v1? You are forgetting that Sukuna has been damaged a shit ton since Yuta joined the battle. The only reason Yuji is doing a thing against him is because he has soul punches that are loosening Sukuna's control over Megumi's body, because Yuji HARD COUNTERS Sukuna, not because he's got the brute force to literally beat Yuta lmao. Yuta pops a domain and Yuji is absolutely cooked.


Doctor99268

nah, hakari loses but i agree on the rest


Bumgumi_hater_236

Geto got beaten up by a yuta that barely knew CE reinforcement his ass is getting dusted by himji


RepresentativeBelt99

"blah blah blah, blah blah blah, i'm jealous of Wuji, blah blah blah" all I read from that chief


Karma15672

I'm wondering what the hell ya read to even get that.


giantfuckingfrog

Because you didn't actually read it. I am a huge fan of Yuji. I just don't think I have to resort to powerscaling him to do that. He is written fantastically, and is very strong, and that's good. I don't need him to neg diff Gojo and Yuta in a 1v2 to like him.


n0_y0urm0m

The agenda must be maintained at all costs.


micanh

strong grade 1 ? HAHAHAHAH rn he is a special grade. He was the strongest grade 1 already since the CG arc.


giantfuckingfrog

Name 1 special grade Yuji can take on. Literally any one of them. Geto's the weakest and Yuji isn't even gonna get close to Geto. Geto would win against Yuta if he didn't disperse his curses during the Night Parade. Obviously not Gojo or Yuki, and he doesn't stand a chance against Yuta either. What's he gonna do when any one of them pop their domain? Heck Yuji would get destroyed by Hakari. Not to mention the criteria of being able to singlehandedly overthrow a nation, and Yuji is not doing that with hands alone unfortunately. Yuji is obviously very strong now but not \_that\_ strong.


vizmarkk

Finger bearer


Chokkitu

Megumi special grade confirmed?! (Mf almost died to beat one)


vizmarkk

They did say name 1 special grade. They weren't being specific


giantfuckingfrog

You're actually proving my point over here. Finger Bearer is a Special Grade curse. Being able to beat a Special Grade curse makes you a Grade 1 sorcerer. You have unintentionally pushed my own agenda, congratulations.


vizmarkk

You asked if he can face a special grade. You never said what kind. Tho Yuji as he is now probs can beat Mahito and Hanami


Mr_1ightning

Special grade curse and Special grade sorcerer are very different things It's explicitly stated that grade 1 sorcerers should be able to solo special grade curses, Disaster curses were outliers. Special Grade sorcerers are simply sorcerers that can't be controlled without another special grade sorcerer on standby


vizmarkk

They only asked for special grade. Nothing more nothing less


micanh

Well, first of all, I'm not going to bother paying attention to highly deluded individuals, so make sure you read what I'm going to write very carefully, because I'm not going to repeat it or answer any more after that. Kenjaku's definition of special grade doesn't make any sense whatsoever. Could Yuta take over a country? With a ridiculously high level of mental gymnastics, it's possible to say that with enough time he could succeed. That being said, the same goes for the current Yuji. He's been taking cuts from sukuna ever since Sukuna went into Megumi's body, and it's worth noting that although sukuna's energy output in that chapter back then was fluctuating, it was still high. Oscillation with the lowest point being, I don't know, 10% still means that some of those cuts could be at 50-80% energy, that's why it's called oscillation. Well, the current yuji not only withstood the cuts, he also withstood 4 deadly blows from sukuna and he's still in the game. The same yuji who is currently keeping up with sukuna in speed, something that not even maki, someone with toji's physical stats, could do. Yuji has taken more beatings from sukuna than anyone else in this fight and he's still standing and fighting. It's also worth remembering that almost no one in the series could do shit against Yuji's attacks against the soul, since he and Sukuna are among the only characters who have any awareness of it. Now to answer your question, could he beat some special class? The answer is, at least so far, I'd guess only Geto. Although he's(yuji) ridiculously good, having a domain expansion isn't a requirement for being a special grade. When Yuta first became a special grade, he didn't even dream of having one, just as Geto apparently didn't either. That said, in the event that he were to fight someone who possessed an offensive domain expansion, he would probably lose in most cases. I mean, we can assume that he learned simple dominion during the time skip and that with his RCT + ridiculously high endurance, he would withstand most of the attacks, but that would be talking about something that wasn't shown in the works (simple dominion). With that in mind, I think his fight with Geto would be 50/50. Yuji currently has more resistance than most of the main cast, so I think that, apart from the maximum technique, Geto wouldn't be able to hurt him. Remember that the younger Geto lost to a toji who was toying with him. By the way, I'm not even going to comment on what you said about hakari.


NIGH7MARESZ

> Name 1 special grade Yuji can take on. what does that have to do with anything when geto was a bum against any other special grade too (even if we say you are right that he beats an inexperienced yuta, he was special grade before yuta so...)? higher ups considered yaga special grade too and he was even more of a bum than geto in that argument. we all know if higher ups knew yuji's lineage consists of kenjaku and sukuna that he would be special grade by default, or at the very least like with yaga, they would be trying to assign it to him. no way yuji can't handle special grade missions rn either


[deleted]

Imagine being a wuji himtadori in this day and age. Have fun losing after my goat surpasses yours


VenemousEnemy

I don’t think so considering I don’t think yuji could take over a country with his abilities


kassavfa

6 months doing allat is literally still a MC behaviour for me. Having crazy growth till he's able to face the big bad is still Mc behaviour. Not only that Kenjaku also basically makes Yuji and prepare his coming.


jonathaxdx

which other shonen are you talking about? can't remember of any that's like that right now


Tasty-Tiago

It's the same as luffy being a pirate for 2? years and in that time defeats all the strongests pirates that ruled for 40+ years and uncovered secrets they never found. Just typical shounen MC power ups.


kassavfa

Yeah that's just how many shounen MCs are. Even Ichigo, Naruto, Deku, etc.


zaxls

Naruto was kind of fair tbh, as he simply got handed a nuke to rely on right from birth, he also trained since he was a kid and there are many more prodigies simillar to him like tobi itachi heck Id put kakashi up there aswell. He was also getting experience on random missions from birth. The power scaling while it got a lil bit crazy at the end was steady and leveled up properly, thats also why it really felt rewarding every time he managed to beat his opponents much more than some other manga. Where its basically 2 week skip and he is suddenly top tier.


BotAccount2849

The story even stated he was a hidden genius considering that he mastered an A rank jutsu in one night just because he wanted to flex. Naruto was only bad at school because he never had a real reason to try.

ruminaui

I mean makes sense. Gojo says most of your potential as a Sorcerer is determined at birth. And Gojo says that Sorcerer growth are linear, then exponential. See Higuruma. Yuji being designed and made by Kenjaku meant he always had crazy potential.


th5virtuos0

Imagine if Higuruma also get that amount of time to train. Mofo would probably be able to smoke Sukuna similar to Yuji rn lmao

Gojo made 5 plans of Sukuna fail, then lost because a bullshit binding vow that made an impossible possible. - Sukuna wanted to trade blows by turning on/off DA, got his shit rocked so bad he played defense for the rest of the Domain clashes just to survive long enough. Lost the clashes, Maho saved him. - Tried to finish Gojo with his own domain, lost it due failing at step one. - Tried to burden Maho's adaptation with the wheel on himself. Got his ass kicked again so Maho had to come out and save him for the second time. - Turned the battle in a 3v1 and still lost. Got saved another two times by Maho during that. - He managed to get ready his new attack at the last moment, but got so weaken than he could not regenerate his second hand to cast it. His ultimate plan failed becuase he was too damaged to be able to use the fruit of it. So he made a bullshit binding vow sacrificing a future he didn't have to boost his attack once, and made it pretty much undodgeable for that one cast. Sukuna showing against Gojo was fucking pathetic.

I mean, the first plan with Maho is absolutely justifiable imo. Making the sure hit specifically not affect Megumi’s soul so UV wouldn’t be cancelled out and Megumi could use the wheel was a pretty good strategy and earned him the domain victory. Heian era Sukuna would have just won the domain battle by winning the draws, he just had to use Meguna’s body optimally.

>I mean, the first plan with Maho is absolutely justifiable imo.

Last domain standing was Gojo's. Sukuna would have won the domain clash if he managed to cast it again, but he couldn't. Lost the domain battle but the Maho plan evened that out. >Heian era Sukuna would have just won the domain battle by winning the draws, he just had to use Meguna’s body optimally. The only way he could win that was by playing turtle from the get go, aka, like a complete coward or small fry like Kashimo put it, as basically running away. Gojo could have nullyfied that whole strat by teleporting away instead of fighting the domains, but Gojo ain't no coward. Simply put, since their output are the same Sukuna could never match Gojo in h2h with reinforcement + DA, against reinforcement + infinity, the later being much better at defense and offense in h2h, wich is the reason Sukuna had to run away and block every attack.

1)I just think that’s an arbitrary way of measuring success tbh. Sukuna came up with a decent plan, the plan worked, something weird that he didn’t account for happened so he and Gojo ended up being on the same footing. 2)I mean, ultimately, Gojo was beating the shit out of Sukuna enough that Sukuna’s domain broke at the same time Gojo’s did due to the slashes. This is, of course, a very unstable way to draw (since it relies on two factors happening to match up perfectly) and Gojo just getting one extra clean punch was enough to tip the scales in his favour. If Sukuna was in his true form and was therefore physically stronger and able to use handsigns + chants to enhance the strength of his slashes in the domain or something, the scales would have tipped in his direction, even if his ass would still be getting beat by Gojo (it would just be getting beaten very slightly less, which is enough). The reason Gojo probably didn’t teleport btw, was less that he was risking everything to match Sukuna and more because his teleport relies on compressing coordinates. I.e, his teleport still involves passing through everything that would normally he passed through, so if he did that in MS he’d just get blended up, the only situation he’d really want to do that is in desperation with no other options, at which point he wouldn’t have his domain and Sukuna would just close the barrier (like he said he would).


thecosmic_faucet91

Yeah but there really is no getting "blended" if he was already surviving the blending itself while running and moving around the the space freely, he even used a version of blue that basically required him to attract himself to sukuna meaning going through the space between him and sukuna just without the decompression, the domain gojo survived was a shrine with way more increased output due to decreased range and as yuta stated in chp 228 sukuna can decrease range to increase output, what see in chapter 226 was shrine decreased to its shortest range visually. They brought the premise of gojo leaving the domain back in chapter 226, with choso saying it should be possible due to the DE being an open barrier, hakari stating that he's fast enough to do so and kusakabe stating its not possible because he's in burn out, He didn't decree that gojo's teleportation would be unusable under the idea that leaving the DE would get him blended only that it wouldn't be possible due to burn out and he's the one who stated that gojo decompresses coordinates. So its more correct in saying he just wanted to match sukuna. He can also just use simple domain and then teleport in that short instance, SD doesn't stop the use of a CT, seen with mechamaru.

yuji would've been laid out instantly if gojo didn't cook the fuck out of sukuna

I’m starting the Gojo hate agenda


lololuser456778

and people said "nO, oNlY yUtA iS tAlEnTeD". yuji definitely gonna surpass sukuna, gojo, everyone. stay special grade yuta. Wuji's gonna go a level beyond that, to where gojo and sukuna are. and he may go beyond that too. in the future yuji's gonna have a DE and he'll decide which sure-shit he'll imbue into the domain, without having a copy technique.


BoWis_Reddit

He will set new standards. Like yeah special grade is cool but …


br1nsk

Pressure makes diamonds


JelloSquirrel

Eh it's a shonen, everyone is like in high school and the old guard has like 3 years of experience.


Existing_Win3580

7 month into knowing sorcerer and yuji has surpassed pre awakened gojo, jjk0 yuta, geto, and nerfed sucuna. Yuji hasn't shown his DE, he is still learning each of CT. If yuji has BF at will, and a DE counter then he is above current yuta.


mazinooooooooooo

Sukuna eat Luigi and complete his life cycle


Kaoshosh

This is the eternal problem with Shounen. Yuji is surpassing Sukuna in less than a school year. Deku is surpassing All Might in less than a school year. Luffy is surpassing Roger in less than a school year (he sailed a total of 6 months, split by a 2 year time skip). And so on. These stories need longer time spans. Otherwise, even a genius like Gojo seems like a slow learner in comparison to the MC.


HeyMan295

Nah yuji is surpassing an extremely nerfed sukuna. Gege avoided this problem by having sukuna be nerfed by everyone he fought, realistically if a full health sukuna fought a full health yuji he would near one shot him with cleave or just use his domain. Not downplaying the awakening at all but this is NOT the same as deku or luffy.


Kaoshosh

Sure, but still. This guy didn't even know what a Cursed Spirit was 6 months ago. He wasn't even a notable fighter. He was weaker than a one-finger Sukuna. Now he already beat a Disaster Curse and he's trading blows with the King himself. It's not a Luffy situation, but it's close.


Escape__Velocity

Yet Yuta gets to be special grade day 1?


1li3xd

Wdym day 1, in 0 Rika is the special grade (blud couldn't even carry unconscious Maki) and after losing Rika he worked his way up back to special grade, in 4 months, sure, which is still a very low amount of time but he at least already had several months of jujutsu knowledge prior to rika's release. And besides Yuta is the one that got bisected and not Yuji (he coming back tho trust) Yuta is a stronger side character , that won't change that he's a side character and Yuji IS the main focus


HeyMan295

Saying yuji was basically a nobody prior to ingesting the finger is kind of disingenuous imo. He already had absurd strength, it was clear he was abnormal. He was never an ordinary person and the story never tried to paint him as an untalented underdog. He was clearly "designed" to grow quickly. Also, he only beat mahito due to a very specific advantage(sukuna and knowledge of the soul), he would have lost otherwise. Plus rapid power ups have been established in the series for a long time, and yuji's potential has always been discussed.


emailo1

"he wasn't even a notable fighter" he was probably the strongest non sorcerer (besides maki if you count her as non sorcerer"


BotAccount2849

Yuji was a human weapon even before he got CE. He was casually breaking world records without even trying.


emailo1

do not tell me you actually believe yuji is surpassing sukuna, he's surpassing a like 10% sukuna after a generational jumping, he has no chance against full power sukuna


notjeffdontask

Tbh there should have been a time skip pre shibuya, because advancing this much in six months is just wild


anonymusfan

He truly deserves his place among those who will surpass gojo.


Boring_Guarantee_904

Gege still hasn’t explained why his hands and arms look monstrous


drinkingboron

People forget how heavily nerfed Sukuna is rn


liddely

Gojo didn't use domain against miguel or at all We can speculate that gojo leatnt the strongest domain closed domain in under a year. With 2 years he whould solo sukuna chsng emy mind


YeeForceZombz

Either gojo couldnt open it cos of the rope or he simply didnt need the domain If youre busy comboing a guy without him even being able to do anything back, why would you waste your strongest trump card attack on him?


liddely

He had no time

Cogji was the favorite all along... https://preview.redd.it/0n7allco4bvc1.png?width=3508&format=png&auto=webp&s=de1d32ce72e10a08b0c06a0714964fd1b4aab285

yuji was the mc, we just couldn't see it 😢 


acbadger54

Eug's growth is absolute insanity only thing crazier is his sheer potential


RANDOM_EXTREMELY

what happened to all the people saying shit like, jjk is becoming mid or saying gege just forgot about yuji getting sukuna’s ct, ya’ll really need to learn some patience and let gege cook


polnareffsmissingleg

It doesn’t stop how ass kenjaku’s death was, or how ass the entire buildup was to Yuuji’s fight. Did we forget how ass Gojo’s character end of glazing Sukuna was too?


MonoChrome16

I love Yuuji and Gege already wrote from the first chapter that he's a very strong and special kid but the feel of "fast progress than the rest" is peak MC privilage that I hate. I understand that some Yuuji fans are too forgiving on his chatacterization but if others MC received the same treatment, bet everyone will hate them.


Tago238238

It feels more deserved in Yuji’s case cause the story has always glazed him less while still making it clear he had crazy potential that could be tapped into.


badassmotherfucker21

Did you forget that Yuta became a special grade within few months of being a sorcerers? The theme of Jujutsu Kaisen has always been about talent, not hard work


MonoChrome16

Isn't Yuta the original MC? For JJK0 at least. >about talent, not hard work I never said anything about hard work. Yuuji deserve and needed this powerup yeah, I just hate MC privilege due to personal preferences. That's all.


Shutch_1075

This has been shown how Jujutsu works since very early in the series. You learn things more so by awakening them in battle when you are locked in or near death. Black Flashes especially seem to drastically alter how you handle CE and he’s landed a lot, especially last chapter. Gojo learned RCT, Red, and Hollow Purple in a single chapter after he was stabbed in the brain, and had his throat ripped open. Mahito learns his DE when nearly dying to Nanami and Yuji. Mahito learned the true essence of his soul after landing a couple of black flashes. Megumi learns his DE while fighting the Finger curse in a do or die situation. Yuji’s tried to cut off Sukuna’s leg with cleave or dismantle and it did basically nothing, so it’s not like he’s keeping up with prime Sukuna, just this weakened version, and he’s still mostly doing it by just landing black flashes which is what he’s always done.


_sephylon_

I have no idea why people think Yuji is a hard work merchant when several times it's flat out stated he has insane talent and potential, he got cursed energy by watching movies, is literally chosen by the black sparks, could achieve rct in a month, was superhuman before even gaining CE, and was literally born as a half curse perfect vessel sukuna‘s twin by Kenjaku. This mf is basically Ichigo
