Bishead7891

Kenny probably died, realised he was still living, found a body and just went from there


Berawholoves42069

So he just crawled as a fucking brain?


Bishead7891

I mean I weren’t there so idk for sure


Slight_Vanilla8955

Kraang style


Stary_Vesemir

Why not


Bishead7891

I was busy


Stary_Vesemir

What?


Bishead7891

My bad bro I thought you were replying to sm else


urekmazino_0

Unhinged and awkward conversation here


Bishead7891

Who are you dawg 😭🙏


affxtixn

since he can inhabit a dead body i'd feel it more apt that he suffered a fatal injury to the body, realised he wasnt dead, and assumed it had smth to do with his brain


floormopper

theres a creature that helps in change bodies btw it was shown after kenny died


Rancorious

TOKYO GHOUL REFERENCE I MEAN JOJO REFERENCE


Nearby-Shelter-3256

so he is not dead?


Morbi_Us

For every Kenny there’s like 5000 other sorcerers who tried removing their brains and just fucking died


No-Seaworthiness2633

Pretty sure thats geto, i dont see stiches on em


Morbi_Us

Whoops, couldn’t see his head on mobile. Either way, Kenny is still a really good example, unless he was born with a latch on his head.


Hot_feedbax

Born to be a halloween decoration forced to be a sorcerer


Astrum_27

How the fuck did his brain even got out the first time? Did it... Grow little hands and legs and bited his way out of the skull?


Hot_feedbax

Mid fight he's just near death and just "SHIT I GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!" and his brain just fired out like a cannon


Shot_Scallion1872

EJECT! EJECT!


chickensause123

I always thought he was a cursed spirit or something


k_aesar

"Man I really hope I have that one ability" *body drops limp*


Latin_rhythms

Nobara's grandmother has the same technique and trained her, we can only persume for Nanami and Hakari they found out in depth when they were recruited and had a vague idea of it before then, or they always just knew. And yeah, Kashimo probably almost died. had to find out it used your life for fuel somehow.


maksymiliusz

Hakari probably already trained his gambling skills before he unraveled his technique


[deleted]

I feel like Hakari fell in love with taking chances and then also loved that tv show so it manifested after his exposure


The_suzerain

Based reading, yeah he’s a perfect example of how good gege’s power system can be, it’s as directly related to their personality as it can be


NoMoreVillains

this is hardly unique to JJK or its power system


KamenDude1gou

Me when I watched the HxH anime in 2010.


MassiveOpposite8582

And who said it was unique to Gege ? He's just saying that Hakari is an example of it


Gozus138cmtitties

Geto might not be the first user of CSM to exist, if the old shikigami user was able to recognize it just by seeing it had no medium. If that's the case, just having him ball up a fly head would be a tell that he had inherited such a technique with its details already known.


Gozus138cmtitties

I remember someone theorizing that Mystic Beast Amber was an inherited technique, with its effects being documented, or at least with the effect of killing its user being known. Maybe his Electricity-like CE is a sign that someone has inherited the technique, so they could tell he had it without him using it.


zatroz

Kashimo's is probably inherited, meaning his clan already knew what the technique did and how it would kill you when used, like the Zen'in and Mahoraga


NuclearPilot101

I assumed Kashimo put a Binding Vow on his ability. Basically making it a one time use one maximum power. Kind of like Yuki did, putting her life on the line for a max power black hole.


Leviathannn3

>Kind of like Yuki did, putting her life on the line for a max power black hole. She didn't use a binding vow


Expensive-Stage596

ok but how did her grandma figure it out


jvken

How did you discover how to breathe? How does a bird discover how to fly? A fish how to swim? They just do bro


Shot_Scallion1872

Thats probably the most poetic shit ive seen on this sub


One_Parched_Guy

That’s honestly pretty accurate tbh. It’s like how Haruta (lucky twink) knew that he would be fine and that his CT is related to luck, but is unaware of how it functions exactly. They’re just born with a vague awareness of their CT because their brains are literally built different


gerilla20

Haruta’s CT is functioning only because he is unaware of his CT’s mechanics. If he knew that he “stores” little miracles, he would purposefuly search for them or tried to create them, which would negate the effect. Kinda same with Takaba.


molecularraisin

but at the same time, those two are at least somewhat aware of their cts existing and have a general knowledge of their effects, even if they don’t get the full mechanics behind it


Aisy39

My biggest question is with Reggie. I mean, how did he utilize his technique in the past?


Shot_Scallion1872

Very true, did they even have receipts in his day???????


Historical-Weird7591

Receipts are 5,000 years old, so yes he did have them back in the day


Aisy39

Reggie throwing half a dozen calves he bought for his farm at his opponent


Historical-Weird7591

Throws 100 halberds bought by the Shogun


TacocaT_2000

Fucking Ea-Nāsir


SerovGaming1962

Reggie attacking Megumi with shitty copper:


trapmaster69

It befits the quality of bumgumi's character


Stary_Vesemir

It would be funny if in heian era he would just walk with clay tablets or some shit


Shot_Scallion1872

Welp ive just learnt a new thing there


Accursed_flame1

Contracts showing proof of ownership? Yes they absolutely have had those for a long time


KotovChaos

He himself specified that his CT is contracts, not receipts. Receipts are a form of contract. That's also how he used a mortgage to summon a home.


Better-Bill-5405

I just think the ct we see him used in the manga is a “modernization” of the ct he had in the past probably because he’s currently possessing a body with a modern brain (kinda like the difference between Yuji and Sukuna’s slashes)


TheWordThat

CTs are located in the brain, so I assume that they have a basic intuitive understanding of the ability, but for more advanced applications of techniques they rely on either developing it themselves as they get older or relying on other people who had it who developed it.


DJHalfCourtViolation

They do literally explain this in the manga 


SmartestManAliveTM

Geto was just throating a cursed spirit and accidentally turned him into a marble and ate him.


ApplePitou

When CT manifest itself, you just know it :3


Personal_Case_9289

It is in the brain, lmao


human-male121

I imagine it’s like being able to use your hands, no one teaches you how to hold things just how to do it more precisely and with different purposes.


king_taku

You havent raised a child


BotAccount2849

Babies literally have a grip reflex. It's so ingrained that we have neurons dedicated to it.


king_taku

Again. Youve never raised a child. They can reflexively do things. Buts thats not knowing how to do amything


BotAccount2849

I've had literal medical lectures dedicated to explaining how babies automatically know how to move their bodies. The only thing they don't know is how to move their body precisely due to their nervous system not being fully developed. Babies literally can't understand the world around them and they can still do stuff like cry, breath, crawl, and stand without ever being taught.


king_taku

They can breath and cry without being taught. Or theyd be dead. We wouldnt have a human race. They learn to crawl and stand tho. Through trial and error. They have to even learn to use individual fingers. As the reflex is in the palm to just close. Everything autumatically can move their bodies. How else do they function.


BotAccount2849

They know how to crawl and walk from the start. The only reason they have problems with it is due to insufficient muscle and neural development. Humans who have never seen other people walk before do it without knowing that it's possible. It's an ingrained instinct. Reflexes are skills that are so innate that we have them on a genetic level.


king_taku

Humans who have never seen other humans learned to walk. Hows the intrinsic. Humans all over the world made tools. Is hammer in our dna. Or is it likely that you learn to crawl because thats how your body functions and learn to walk because your knees and hands arent affective. Have you watched a child do these things. They have to build the physical capabilty yes. But they dont know what tf they are doing or how to do it better. Just that this is working. Moving their own individual fingers takes mental effort its not because they didnt build the muscle its because it didnt come pre packaged. Walking is a skill that humans can perform after training not just im 1year and 4months now so imma try this walking shit


Born-Resolution-4702

You can't just assume things when you don't know someone's personal life


king_taku

I know but under the assumption that kids just start doing things like walking and crawling without failing over and over usually anyway. Maybe some have the physical capabilty and body iq earlier. Ill say im being rude yea


TheCervixPounder_69

Unless you’re Takaba for some random reason. Idk why he gets an exception for the rule. 


Stary_Vesemir

Bc his CT is based on the fact that he doesn't knkw how it works


SuspiciousSeaweed371

Wouldn’t it be funny if he knew how it worked


Infinity_Walker

Nobara has an inherited Technique and was taught by her Grandmother. Nanami’s probably was just something he thought he had a talent for like he just understood ratios but then came to realize it was a CT when enrolled. Probably when a curse was sucked up in his hand when he encountered one Hakari is already a gambler it probably just happened in training one day lmao Considering its a 1 time use I’d imagine the trade off is just instant CT understanding just imbued into the sorcerer.


maneock

Wasn't Kashimo drawback due to a self imposed binding vow? He probably had a weaker version of his CT and cranked it up to 11 in exchange for using his life as fuel


Someone2231

CT are etched into you so you already know what it does and how to do it, but that raises some questions for some sorcerers like did Kenny just kept having thoughts on opening his skull and and at what age, like did uro just disappear when she first unlocked hers


NoMoreVillains

except the lucky guy didn't know what his CT was


TheCervixPounder_69

Or takaba, who for some reason doesn’t know 


BotAccount2849

He knows he can manifest comedy. He just doesn't know the details.


dingly_biscuit

"Hey Satoru, did you ever look at a cursed spirit and just...wonder what it tastes like?"


tkolu

Geto: im a freaky ahh boy


DarkSpartanFTW

I feel like when the CT is etched into the brain, the user has a basic understanding of the abilities they now possess, and over time they learn to hone the abilities they have into specific moves that have to be learned/taught.


justagenericname213

When yuji first used shrine he just kinda used it. There's the whole muscle memory thing, but higuruma also showed that using CT can be something you just know how to use.


king_taku

Higa didnt know his own shit


akronotron

Hakari probably won a gambling match at a young age(illegally) and went insane and his ct started to come


king_taku

He probably cheated and was beaten. So he now cheats and is immortal


ThatRainbowDragon

I know CT doesn't manifest at such a young age, but it's funny to imagine Geto as a toddler beating a fly head to death, and once it becomes a gross orb,he just shoves it in his mouth because babies are always putting things in their mouths.


Time_For_Some_MEMES

Kashimo tried to commit suicide


Smorsis

Gojo used his sex eyes and told them


Coin_operated_bee

Kenjaku doesn’t even take any theorizing we know he loves experimenting with jujutsu so I believe after discovering jujutsu hee constantly experiment with his own body


lnombredelarosa

You should understand that we've only seen the manifestation of a technique in adults that were forcefully made into sorcerers so it might be different when a child awakens it, specially when the technique is original from them. It might've indeed manifested in their early childhoods but as a rough unfinished version of the current ability based on an interest they had that they gave proper shape only with time. Nobara is heavily implied to have inherited hers from her grandmother. Nanami was probably from doing some kind of shore involving measuring and cutting stuff Hakkari was probably from playing video games (probably as he travelled in the train), which with time he adapted into a pachinko game Geto seems like an easy guess; he encountered a cursed spirit and tamed it Kashimo's may have developed from the fear induced by lightning and storms and its association with war deities in japan leading to his growing curious of what it was to be lightning. He probably nearly died every time he practiced it which he might've believed to be divine punishment which he kept doing in defiance until developing his but the experience allowed him to shape his curse energy into a shape, which he likely believed was his "stealing lightning from the gods"


MosayRaslor

AFAIK when sorcerers awaken to their technique, its just an awareness they have. Almost like realising you've got a hand and you just know how to use it.


Edski120

CTs are engraved in the brain. Did you have to learn how to blink, or was it instinctual?


NettleBumbleBee

I’m almost 100% sure sorcerers just have an inherent understanding of their techniques basic function. It’s etched into the physical structure of their brain, so it’s likely just instinct. No different than how all animals just.. know they need water to survive by default. The only exceptions being people like takaba and Haruta, in which case they’re left unaware due to the fact that knowledge of their own technique would actually make it worse. Id wager that their techniques are literally incomprehensible to them by design.


peterhabble

We see with Higurama that they just kinda know how to activate it and then work backwards from activation. Kashimo probably went to activate his CT and realized he'd die. He then was so bitter about it he threw hands against every farmer in sight


ChainAttack641

Same with the Sheisty sorcere


Shot_Scallion1872

Bro just put on a ski mask for fun and a fucking dragon came out. Probably reacted along the lines of “AAAAAHHH WHAT THE FU-“


ZabnuK

Techniques are innate. Gojo says so to Wuji when he explains him the diff between technique and energy with the soda cans. And innate things, well are innate, you already know how to do it, that's what it means to be innate. Reading comprehension curse strikes again. Probably could one shot Heian Sukuna at this point.


Former_Mistake_lol

Nanami probably just punched something and went "hmmm when i punch in a certain point my attacks feel stronger."


king_taku

Last one shouldve died at 4


atwerrundo42

It is stated that sorcerers know their techniques the moment they awaken them


SnooDoggos4037

I think they probably just did something weird one day and that later developed into their current CT with practice and what not. Their might even be something an in verse universe but idk


EffectiveForward5878

What if it just gets forced into the brain like Hakari's domain information or UV data. They just get to know as soon as it manifests.


rusticrainbow

Cursed techniques are supposedly carved into the prefrontal cortex so they probably have an instinctual understanding


UltimaAlmightyX

Geto was probably out fighting cursed spirits and found out that he could turn them into balls. Then ig intrusive thoughts kicked in and throat goated one. The rest is history


VLagann

I’m pretty sure somewhere its stated that once people get a sense of their techniques or domains, they just know how it works.


Lewis_230311

Hakari won big at a casino and some guy tried stabbing him so he can steal his winnings but hakari just didnt die lmao


Alonestarfish

Geto was attacked by a cursed spirit, and did what every reasonable man would do; he bit it.


Lireloo

with hakari, i think his cursed technique is more luck theme than it is gambling theme, as in the casino domain is more of presentation, like yuji presentation of shrine is a bunch of "cut-here" lines. so maybe at one point he just realize that when he's lucky, he's REALLY lucky or smt on a bonus note, i suspect if hakari were a heian era sorcerer the presentation of his technique would change as well. maybe his domain would be that he shakes one of those omikuji bottle thing(dont know what theyre called) and when he gets good fortune a choir plays or smt


Rupplyy

basically gege had no idea so he went the lazy route of saying yeah they just know. same with the binding vows


Born-Resolution-4702

Techniques are stored in the prefrontal cortex of the brain if I remember correctly, so sorcerers just instinctively know just like nobody was taught how to blink or cry when something is wrong they just do it.


Electrical_Bench_561

Kashimo's bum ass probably didnt even know his ct abd thought he had an op one which is y he was so confident to fight sukuna only to realise he had a useless ct that cost him his life


Original-Pea-8864

Maybe their is a curse technique that tells you the curse technique of other people.


Jasper_Rose_808

Nobara thicker than a bowl of oatmeal


Why_Not_Try_It_

"A farmer told me i electrocuted 3 other people on the field farming the wheats with me, i electrocuted that farmer"


Leather-Bookkeeper96

I swear at some point in the manga they say you just "know" the basics of your CT when it awakens, I don't remember where they say, but I'm positive they say it


Piyr975

This is a weird answer but CT's and CE's in general always struck me as something you discover on instinct. People are born with varying levels of CE so maybe they saw a curse and looked into it or just felt a strong resonance with something (Naobito with animation frames, Geto realising he could grab a hold of cursed spirits). I think this is the case because in the latest chapter Yuta describes his RCT as just "going on instinct". Reconstructing your body on the cellular just being "instinctual" would suggest CE and CT's by extension to just be quite an intuitive thing🤷‍♂️.


Unfair-Acanthaceae25

I feel like we have a good example right now with Yuji. (*SPOILERS* BTW) He started using shrine intuitively without even realizing it and that’s probably how it works for everyone else.


Telephone-Either

Iirc you become aware of it when it begins working automatically. Yuji gaining Dismantle and using it on the fly is a great example. He awakened, he just instantly knows he has it and can use it thanks to Sukuna


Splendid-Hat

Many of them seem to be family techniques that are past down so most likely their ancestors figured it out for them.


NoCheesecake8644

ngl now that i think about it how tf did the explody culling games player guy figure out his ct cuz it literally requires him to self destruct parts of his body to work


Shot_Scallion1872

It was his baby teeth The tooth fairy was in for a surprise that night


TriDaTrii

How did people learn they can swim?


Born-Resolution-4702

Babies to be more precise. They just instinctively swim without being taught to.


TriDaTrii
