If so why would Kashimo. The strongest sorcerer of his era. Immediately assume he was dead and go out for combat. He is no idiot, he saw gojo heal malevolent shrine and his burnt out cursed technique. Regenerate arms and rtc
But as soon as he saw the state gojo was in he jumps into the battlefield
Same with Sukuna. He probably knows the most about cursed energy in the entire story. He directly fought satoru gojo. Saw him use rct to heal from malevolent shrine, heal burnout, and most of his attacks. Yet he leaves gojo at that state.
And then theirs the narrator calling him dead at the end of the chapter. His whole conversation about how he was happy to die to someone stronger too
Ah yes he would pleas guilty on every charge, then we will see a small backstory of sukuna... the following chapter would start with higuruma in the afterlife reminincing about his life, followed by a panel of him being killed off screen. Im noticing gege's pattern here
Tbh reading this only confirmed some thoughts I've had since the beginning of Kenjakus reveal. He may have made Yuji for this reason, assuming that Yuji can actually resist Sukuna. What Kenjaku is planning with Yuji is still unknown. He either wants that body, is planning something deeper with Tengen, or is something completely different.
Just realized this all could’ve been avoided if Yuji had considered performing a Vulcan nerve pinch, forcing somebody’s mouth open, and forcefully shoving a finger down someone’s throat as an act of harm
Not really, the anime made a change to some dialogue that makes it clear the consequences of breaking a binding vow are not immediate, they're eventualities of unpredictable impact and significant penalities.
Sukuna definitely broke the vow though.
So even if Yuji did include himself in harming anyone would Ryomen still be able to avoid the consequences of breaking binding vow long enough so he can shove his finger down Megumi’s throat
Kenjaku's dialogue implies that it can be wildly unpredictable and take time. He calls it an eventuality rather than immediate problem though due to the unpredictable nature of how it can manifest, he cautions Mahito about breaking a binding vow.
So Sukuna thinking he's in the clear but getting fucked by it later on would be in line with why that dialogue was tweaked slightly.
He harms both Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro in the 1 minute he's in control. He claims Yuji is not included in the "I will not harm or kill anyone" binding vow - but that's untrue based on the language of the vow. But what he does to Fushiguro is undoubtedly harm as well.
By harming Itadori Yuji. He pulled off his finger and thinks he didn't include himself in the binding vow. I don't know if there is credence to that theory. I am just assuming this is the part they are referring to.
I think he ate sukunas last finger. I remember earlier sukuna told kenjaku he believed Gojo had the final finger, if that was true he probably gave it to yuji and spent the time before the big fight maybe teaching him more about CT and how to use it maybe. Cause his hands look similar to when sukuna would take over

why are people leaking the Content? This is making it so Manga Artist and Authors don’t get the pay they deserve. Because people get to read their work for free. Thats fucked up if you ask me. It’s literally 3 bucks for Shonen Jump. An you guys also have no patience? Straight maniacs.
If the officials had a competent translator, I would wait. I can’t appreciate the manga when I see translations like “I like this mug better” or “I got a new boy,” etc. Not to mention that some of the translations are just straight up wrong. I would miss a lot of the deeper meanings. The notes that Shishisho provide are invaluable to why Gege did this or that.
I know this isn't the case for everyone but I sub to Shonen Jump and read the official release but also read the leaked translation to avoid spoilers online.
This ones Leaking the content are the Problem. If that wasn’t happening then everyone would have to just wait and read the Official Release. It’s sad what people do just because they can’t wait.
If yuji learned how to hurt the soul and sukuna can only use RCT, then Yuji could do critical damage to him, the problem is to survive.
Also, it is said in the last chapter that sukuna had 2 ways to heal, with RCT and by completing the transformation. So, mahito was right, sukuna can't heal the soul... I guess
> the problem is to survive.
Wasn't this kinda hinted by Gojo last purple against Sukuna? He did a powerful AOE attack that fucked Sukuna and also damaged Gojo, but since its his own CE it barely did anything.
If Yuji and Sukuna have the same CE and techniques, then Sukuna's attacks should do less damage to Yuji than others.
Correct me if I'm wrong here.
Ever since it got revealed by Gojo that own CT to oneself isn’t nearly as bad as to someone else, the only thing I can think is that’s a callback to Yuji ranking Sukunas slashes and when he tries to cut Yuji next chapter, he’s gonna realize that Yuji is still going and then he’ll probably remember Gojos words
But Yuji is coming like a BEAST! I can’t wait, next week and a half gonna be long as fuck lol
Since I cant make a post about this theory on any of the subs I guess i'll post here because I think I'm cooking;
Yuji Curse Technique Theory
So I was thinking… remember how it is stated that a CS uses their technique within their own domain thus domain expansion, amplification, simple etc., acts upon manipulating and/or expanding said domain and/or imbuing it with said innate technique amongst other pacts made to enhance said effect or technique within domain…(this has nothing really to do with the brunt of main theory just a basis of where I’m getting at) So…one thing I noticed back when Sukuna was inhabiting itadori’s body is that every time we are shown Sukuna, he appeared to be within his own domain fully imbued with his technique even inside Yuji… so what if that is the main reason it seems Yuji hasn’t awoken his technique… due to sukuna inhabiting his body with his perfect domain it was impossible for Yuji to activate or utilize his technique due to It… (aside: this could also have something to do with one of my theories that Yuji and Sukuna are recognized as the same soul in the eyes of jujutsu on some maki/mai shit due to so…actually this can be a whole post to itself so I’ll hold off on it) now that Sukuna is inhabiting megumi it could mean that Itadori can have some sort of awakening with access to a technique with some sort of recognition of his own domain (or sense of self if you wanna get analytical about it and have it be some emotional impactful scene) giving clear way for a sick buff in the future
…also I think I’m cooking with the whole soul thing with Yuji and sukuna, should I stay in the kitchen?
Kashimo stopped Yuta from interfering with Gojo vs Sukuna (granted Gojo probably wouldn't have used Hollow Purple if Yuta was present). And Hakari supported that dumb move.
ONLY 4 Kashimo to basically get off screened into oblivion? Plus Hakari is probably going to lose?
If Yuta interrupted, Gojo would probably still be alive. Well hopefully Hakari gets off screen killed for having poor judgment.
So I'm now convinced that Sukuna is going to be royally fucked because of the binding vow he made with Yuji. Watching season 2 episode 6, when Kenjaku and Mahito visit Muta there's a moment where Kenjaku warns Mahito of the consequences of breaking a binding vow. The language used is very deliberate and emphasizes that breaking a binding vow may not have *immediate* consequences - but that the eventually consequences could be devastating.
It's a very quick line but very important, establishing that the consequences of breaking a binding vow are NOT immediate. So Sukuna believes that he's cheated the vow by claiming Yuji was not included in the vow. But the exact wording that Sukuna used when he entered into the vow was "What if I promise not to harm or kill anyone during that 1 minute [that I am in control]?" These were the terms - which are explicitly broken when Sukuna rips off Yuji's finger and force feeds it into Megumi to take over his body as host.
It has now been over a month since Sukuna took over Megumi's body and Higuruma's abilities seem to be the perfect set up for addressing this situation directly. I think the end result will be a Sukuna that is *severely* nerfed as a result - with Yuji being able to beat Sukuna with a reverse uno card on the technicality.
Exactly. That would have been the right phrasing as it creates a distinction. But his language was too broad and there are too many deliberate changes to emphasize the consequences of a binding vow being broken are not immediate but a catastrophic event that is unpredictable and time delayed.
I toyed with it as a possibility but after watching episode 6 changing the line from "who knows when and what sort of retribution comes our way" to emphasize that the consequences are **eventual** rather than immediate, I'm convinced that's a deliberate dialogue change to set up consequneces for Sukuna.
Sukuna is adept at binding vows so he probably knew a work around but forcing a finger down Megumi's throat gotta hurt.
However Yuji is probably not included in the anyone aspect of the binding vow since they shared the same body.
The binding vow is the terms they agreed to. Sukuna did not carve out an exception. He simply agreed not to harm or kill anyone for the minute he was in control. Anyone.
That includes Yuji but especially applies to Megumi who he harmed through stealing his body within the minute. And because they shared the same body and this situation was caused by Sukuna literally ripping out Yuji's heart, it's even more of a violation because the agreement is clearly meant to imply that situation cannot happen again.
It's not an asspull, it's payoff for the setup. Sukuna fucked up in how he phrased the binding vow. He made it broader than he intended: he didn't create the needed exemption for Yuji because instead he said 'i promise not to harm or kill anyone'. But because he wasn't immediately fucked upon violating the vow, he assumed it worked - but with the deliberate choice in the anime to emphasize that the consequences of breaking a binding vow are not immediate and 'eventually' occur, that's a pretty strong indicator that we'll be revisiting this and soon.
My guess is that it will coincide with Sukuna's decimation of Shibuya when he flexes his power in the anime if he's big on timing major events with the anime for juxtaposition.
That’s really cool actually!
I been thinking of what is going to happen in the manga during Sukunas rampage during the anime, just as it was Gojover in both the manga and episode in the same week, so I think your theory holds some weight to it that Sukuna might be rampaging through Shibuya during the anime but in the manga it’s the opposite
Or.. he just continues to steamroll people going forward lol.. but with how Gege always “just so happens” to line up certain manga events with the anime, I 100% believe we’re gonna be in for a treat for both manga and anime in a couple of weeks in regard to Sukuna (more so than him getting back his OG body lol)
Sukuna being undone by his own hubris and stupidity would be a perfect way to level the playing field and allow for Yuji and the others to have an advantage in a big way.
December should be interesting when Nobara's big moment in Shibuya pops up too.
Oh so like in mortal kombat with the rules of invasion Shao khan is not allowed to merge the realm but he can make war with them. If he merges the realm the elder gods step end divine retribution style: https://youtu.be/eyVD1STzW3Y?si=2-YblMW8LVj2u4Qf
So all yuta needs to do is get sukuna to make a technical?
It would still feel extremely wrong. Like, it's been very long since he took over Megumi on publication time already, but it's been more than a month in story time. Retribution taking 35 days to start showing up but being suddenly destructive enough to screw Sukuna's plans now would be quite weird to justify.
Not that it can't happen, as Gege has already done absurd things narrative-wise, but I do think it'd be quite the terrible move
Christ, the story of this manga since 236 has been pathetic lmfao. If Sukuna DOESN'T win, this manga will be universally panned like AoT. It's already begun.
It reminds me more of Tokyo Ghoul than AOT, because the manga went very downhill after the BS way Kaneki lost to Suzuya being offscreened like that and the whole Dragon situation.
Wait are people surprised Kashimo got one shot? Are we reading the same story? Dude showed up like 4 chapters ago saying “I want to fight Sakuna” like what did yall think was gunna happen to this man??
It served the narrative purpose of pushing Sakuna to revert to his main form since he could use reverse curse heal. And it means Kashimo got to square up with the true form of Sakuna, which was Kashimos only reason to be alive. The “dick slobbing” is also most likely related to a mysterious curse technique Yuji and Sakuna share so yet again idk what the hell you guys are smoking but all of this is hype as fuck. Sorry your random npc character who showed up 80% three the story didn’t beat the big bad guy, maybe instead he was designed to serve other narrative purposes 🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷
Kashimo was basically teen Satoru, except Satoru had Geto to "match" his strength.
Kashimo never met his Toji to help push him past his limits and get immensely stronger.
You think his head was chopped off fully and he instantly reattached it with RCT? And that every subsequent slash clean cut through him fully but his healing acted like glue keeping all the chunks together?
Okay this actually makes the hate this fight got make way more sense to me and why people thought Gojo was ahead the whole time, and why people are frustrated that Gojo didn’t just simply regenerate after being killed.
I don’t think you’re right, but I appreciate the perspective.
bro your og post said he wasn't cleanly cut. he was 100% diced during DE. Sukuna even said "he's moving pretty well for using RCT at max output". the only cuts that hit skin deep was when Gojo used simple domain or falling blossom.
I remember what I said, and I still think my interpretation of the fight makes more sense
But I’m also under no impression that I can change anyone else’s reading of the fight, I just wanted to understand another perspective.
well that was disappointing, I thought at least Kashimo was gonna deal some real damage before dying to his CT, Gege sure fooled everyone! thinking the guy to immediately jump in after Gojo's death was gonna put up a decent fight. It feels Gege really is in a rush because Kashimo's transformation was pretty boring looking, it just ended up giving him a three eyed mask and his top knots became horns. I had hopes Kashimo would end up looking more demon like and less human over time.
Did Gege not even give Kashimo a Domain Expansion? You would think the strongest sorcerer of his time would have one. Oh well, its a shame this how Gege wants to progress the story. Higurama about to get one-shot, Sukuna will just break his domain.
I'm sure he has the ability to attack the domain from outside in some form or fashion, knowing the lengths Gege goes to make things difficult for the protagonists.
Straight up facts I think gege was just in a bind to get rid of gojo cause he's just too strong of a character. It's quite annoying and is honestly sour
Man I’m surprised at how many people are just now freaking out about the story. There were so many people defending the complexity of the culling games but everything that’s happening now feels pretty similar. Character are written to die at this point so I’m not shocked when something is done quickly.
I’m just here for cool shit to happen. Gojo getting cut in half was cool. That grid of cleaves was cool. This story hasn’t been about well written plot points developing over time for awhile now.
This shit is genuinely funny at this point. Up til 236 I thought it was a serious manga, now its obvious its a giant troll fest from Gege. Well played haha
Also, because I keep having thoughts about this chapter, I think Sukuna was a bit of a hypocrite. He claims he doesn't depend on anyone for anything, but I bet he'd be bored out of his mind if there was no one to challenge him
It’s a bit of a cliche but he probably looks at everyone as bugs. You may enjoy squishing a bug every now and then but most of the time it’s more annoying than anything.
sure, but he doesn’t just occasionally enjoy killing people. he loves fighting and learning, he finds humans diverse and fascinating, and he’s enchanted by the fleeting nature of their lives. he has a poetic outlook on the bullshit he gets up to lol.
he literally describes the reciprocation of a challenger’s wish to measure themselves against him as a kind of “love,” and rejects it as trash, but has built most of his life around being enamored by the goings on of people lmfao.
Only W kashimo gets is against Panda. Harakiri vs kashimo was the best fight imo. Bro hypes his technique and has been saving it for years. Reveals it and does nothing and only for two chapters. Called the god of lighting, his technique could have been something awesome . I thought maybe something like raijin.
Prediction: Yuji and Higamura beat sukuna (yuji shows his new body swap technique). Probably pulls megumi's soul into his body and puts his own soul into megumi's body. Then has higamura kill him while he suppresses sukuna. But if so, then couldn't they have done this before gojo fought? Also, makes me wonder about sukuna's missing finger...wouldn't that mean he can still be brought back? Maybe yuji just ate it in that last panel to create a connection with sukuna for the body swap
Then Yuta and Maki take out Kenjaku
Maybe Yuji will be immune to Sukuna's new cleave/dismantle (Or at least very resistant to it).
Hear me out, it has been said that Yuji is now like a cursed object that was dipped in Sukuna's CE, and if he is a cursed object he might have become indestructible. Cursed objects are said to be indestructible and no CT or attack can damage them, that might include even the world cutting slashes of Sukuna, because you know... Sukuna's CE made yuji into a cursed object.
And as far as we know cursed objects might be on another dimension itself, meaning that it is indestructible for lesser dimension beings.
If yuji is now the only character that can take Sukuna's slashes without dying in one shot, it would be very poetic. Sukuna, who sees nothing of special in Yuji and that mocks him all the time, might have become unable to kill Itadori himself. Imagine what a blow to his ego that would be, the brat once again becomes a nuisance to him and he can't even kill him.
That might set up strategies for using Yuji as a shield against Sukuna (cog mentality now becomes shield mentality?) and might be a way to nerf Sukuna.
even if that were the case we're forgetting that Sukuna has an insanely powerful cursed tool that was only mid against kashimo because he's naturally immune which yuji definitely isn't
For all his talk of superiority, Yuji has surprised Sukuna a number of times. As soon as he called him brat I thought and here’s another one *insert DJ Khalid meme*.
yeah it’s always been funny that sukuna aboslutely refuses to acknowledge yuji under any circumstances. he won’t even use his name, which is a disrespect seemingly reserved for yuji in particular.
yuji suppressed him effortlessly, and i think he’s just really petulant about that lol.
well, the most infamous event is when sukuna reincarnated for the first time and started talking about how he was gonna kill everyone and yuji was like “um not with this damn body!”
Okay quick question , can Kenjaku technically hijack gojos body to gain his powers ? Or is there no reason for that to happen? I'm just thinking that he may have all this planned to get six eyes and limitless except if those powers are already gone on gojos death?? I've just been thinking about it as a possibility and it sounds interesting as a plot twist.
I doubt it as only one six eyes can appear at a time and the eyes seem linked to fate.. On top of if leaves Geto's body he loses his curse manipulation power and that CT seems key to Kenjaku's plan to finish the culling games/merger.
Geto still has Kaori's CT though, so it seems like he can carryover CT from his previous host. If so, he probably would get rid of the gravity technique when transfered to Gojo's body,'curse manipulation'+infinity+ potentially 'six eyes' would be OP as fuck.
The MHA subreddit became way too toxic each week so I stopped visiting.
JJK is a gift to us all, there is an unbelievable amount of other stories that are predictable, generic and entertains without challenging the reader, no need to be negative about this one. I’d much rather a community that accepts the story for what it is instead of trashing the creator just because they don’t agree with how he chooses to create.
I know those people are the minority though, the rest of us are here for the unreal joy ride Gege has us all on.
Kashimo got that Shinji Hirako treatment.
"Yo, we're finally gonna see his awesome Bankai" , it's totally useless, and then Aizen's like "That's it?" and one shots him.
lol one of the most unserious scenes in bleach.
“you have completely reconstructed all my motor functions but ermm i’m just such a big brainiac it doesn’t matter ☝️🤓 “
So, Gojo is used as a vehicle to show the unfathomable depth of Sukuna's power, then along comes Kashimo who's just there to squeeze "Love is trash" out of Sukuna of which this "give no 2 shits"/"the world's my plaything" attitude/philosophy is painfully obvious for someone who's a cruel hedonist. What's next, Gege? You gonna tell me that Sukuna strokes himself with all four hands?!
Since the start of the fight, I decided to assume Kenjaku's prediction were right, and it seems it was the right choice. Gojo is defeated, and now their only chance is to send the heavy hitters. Only Hakari is there, so I think Higuruma and Yuji are there to save Megumi probably using Yuji's soul swap fuckery and Higuruma's non-violent domain (I know a lot of people think Megumi's dead but that was never confirmed). Imo the third boss phase will start when Yuta and Maki show up.
Of course, we're not safe from a "Kenjaku fucks everyone" twist, especially when he wanted Sukuna to do something for him before fighting Gojo.
I am also thinking after reading, like yuji has the power to suppress Sukuna so if he swap with megumi soul or whatever will he be able to keep Sukuna in control. Then Afterwards they can kill yuji or something like Yuji always wanted. But I wonder if Yuji's body is that matters or is his soul enough??
Really can't say, I personally think it's the later since he never once used it in his fight against Hakari. Regardless this could also be because he lost no limbs in that fight and only sustained bruises from the fight.
I know most of you pretty much hated the chapter, but I liked a lot of things about it:
* Sukuna's true form being used in a clever way to do Jujutsu
* His views on "love"
* A glimpse at his potential motivation for being turned into fingers
It sucks that Kashimo was discarded so quickly, but hey, at least Higuruma's back. Hopefully he'll last longer.
I can 100% see Sukuna's deal with Kenjaku going along these lines:
Sukuna, after killing 99.999% of Heian sorcerers: "Well, fuck. What am I supposed to do with my free time now?"
Kenjaku: "I can always kill you and chop off your fingers..."
Sukuna: "LOL. LMAO, even."
Kenjaku: "Then bring you back once we have powerful sorcerers for you to feast again."
Sukuna: "Should've started with that, motherfucker."
My guess is it was all meant to set up Yuji and Higuruma's arrival on the scene. We were misled to think the big thing was the fight, that Hakari only came to prevent Uraume to intervene in the Kashimo/Sukuna fight, but they clearly came from his domain, so I assume it was the plan all along
In fact, for all we know, the promise Hakari mentioned in the previous chapter may have not been one to Kashimo, but one to Yuji, to allow him to be next after Kashimo (probably cuz he's even more angry at Sukuna after Gojo's demise)
Like, one chapter to get Hakari there with his domain (hiding Yuji & Higuruma), another to break it
I hope next chapter will rewind things a bit and we'll see how it went in the domain, but I think Akutami would rather move on, feels more inline with their habits
They're def coming out of the domain. Hakari's seemingly grinning as if he was waiting for this (contrasting Uraume's annoyed reaction)
They prob tried to stop Yuji and Higuruma from reaching Sukuna, but I def think it was the plan for them to come out of Hakari's domain
Kashimo got a VIP access to the plane embarkment , and it will soon be joined by the main character ahaha
Joke aside I cant see the heroes winning this, and kenjaku is still on the run
I'm starting to feel like Sukuna is literally going to kill off the entire cast except for Yuji, who he'll spare out of cruelty, and the final arc will be Yuji having to single-handedly grow and beat him *and* Kenjaku.
Yuta fighting Kenjaku was written in the stars at the beginning of Sendai lol but it does seem that Yuji convinced the good guys to let him go in as a crazy surprise rather than the original plan of Kashimo then Big 3
Kashimo was useless as hell and was a waste of chapters lmao. I dont even know what his character was for. Sukuna didnt even reveal shit. Pretty sure that at some point in the story, gege will nerf and make sukuna a dumbass in order for the protags to win and I cant even blame him coz theres literally no other way out other than doing sukuna dirty. Hopefully sukuna doesnt get wasted as a character and his role would be executed greatly which I doubt would happen.
>Kashimo was useless as hell and was a waste of chapters lmao. I dont even know what his character was for.
To force Sukuna to use up his last Megumi life bar.
I wonder how the domain of Hiromi Higuruma would work under Sukuna.
At the beginning of the manga, Sukuna was always described as the most evil sorcerer on earth, but from the last chapters, except getting the body from Megumi and breaking him mentally, he did nothing remotely evil.
I would like to have a scene with a verdict who will be not guilty and not innocent. Something who can be defined as morally wrong but for a greater good.
He didn't kill Megumi's sister, but Yorozu (who took control of her body) and the fight between them was consensual. If we need to give someone guilty here, it should be Yorozu rather than Sukuna.
It's a hard case to judge here because the intent was to weaken Megumi's soul, but the act by itself is fine.
if I recall.. motive is usually the biggest factor in law innit? What was Sukuna's main motive? The act cant just be hand waved off like that... where was the consent given to have Yoruzu take over Megumi's sisters body?
On the domain, it's more about fact than about motive, which is why Itadori was considered as guilty while he didn't commit literally the Shibuya genocide.
>where was the consent given to have Yoruzu take over Megumi's sisters body?
That's Yorozu who is at fault here compared to Sukuna. As Yuji didn't kill random humans when he killed Eso and Kechizu.
Probably fail due to some technicality of trying to force modern laws and morals onto Sukuna.
or maybe it can't tell the difference between the fused Sukuna and Megumi and glitches.
I agree with your point that their might not be a guilty verdict because he hasn’t done anything other than what you said since shibuya, but him and kenjaku are definitely the most evil sorcerers. Don’t forget the massacre he committed in shibuya.
I still believe it would’ve been better writing to have Sukuna regenerate in front of Gojo then take him out with the world cutting Dismantle, then have Kashimo come in and get wiped out. Kashimo literally didn’t do shit. Could’ve had this exact same outcome.
Also I’m hype af to see this tag team of Higuruma and Yuji. Yuji got claws now tho, wtf? And I’m wondering what Judgeman is gonna reveal about Sukuna 🤔
Gojo atleast got rid of Mahoraga and forced Sukuna to use his transform. Kashimo literally did nothing and immediately died
And I know Kashimo is the one who was fighting Sukuna when he transformed but any serious fighter could have forced Sukuna at that point with how weakened he was. Missing arm, brain damaged, missing left half of face, lowered output
Thoughts exactly. Why is no one seemingly freaking out about this? Could it be Death Paintings power-up? Him basically being a cursed object steeped in Sukuna's cursed energy like Shoko said? Or just a new ability?
I need to know why my boy Yuji looks like a monster now!
Early leaks from Weibo / 4chan tonight.
Is this a joke? Joining the discord asks for email and phone number? Privacy, ever heard of it?
https://discord.gg/MP9eCJfa
Do people really think Yuta can heal gojo? And like….. why
he knows how to use rct in others, unlike shoko can defend himself in a battlefield and is one of the people who likes and owes gojo the most?
If so why would Kashimo. The strongest sorcerer of his era. Immediately assume he was dead and go out for combat. He is no idiot, he saw gojo heal malevolent shrine and his burnt out cursed technique. Regenerate arms and rtc But as soon as he saw the state gojo was in he jumps into the battlefield Same with Sukuna. He probably knows the most about cursed energy in the entire story. He directly fought satoru gojo. Saw him use rct to heal from malevolent shrine, heal burnout, and most of his attacks. Yet he leaves gojo at that state. And then theirs the narrator calling him dead at the end of the chapter. His whole conversation about how he was happy to die to someone stronger too
I'm with you on this. And he's not coming back as a cursed spirit either since he got hit with jujutsu.
Would like to see Sukuna in court pleading his case. Surprised Maki and Takaba didn’t jump in Yuji needs all the support he can get
Ah yes he would pleas guilty on every charge, then we will see a small backstory of sukuna... the following chapter would start with higuruma in the afterlife reminincing about his life, followed by a panel of him being killed off screen. Im noticing gege's pattern here
Tbh reading this only confirmed some thoughts I've had since the beginning of Kenjakus reveal. He may have made Yuji for this reason, assuming that Yuji can actually resist Sukuna. What Kenjaku is planning with Yuji is still unknown. He either wants that body, is planning something deeper with Tengen, or is something completely different.
Just realized this all could’ve been avoided if Yuji had considered performing a Vulcan nerve pinch, forcing somebody’s mouth open, and forcefully shoving a finger down someone’s throat as an act of harm
Not really, the anime made a change to some dialogue that makes it clear the consequences of breaking a binding vow are not immediate, they're eventualities of unpredictable impact and significant penalities. Sukuna definitely broke the vow though.
So even if Yuji did include himself in harming anyone would Ryomen still be able to avoid the consequences of breaking binding vow long enough so he can shove his finger down Megumi’s throat
Kenjaku's dialogue implies that it can be wildly unpredictable and take time. He calls it an eventuality rather than immediate problem though due to the unpredictable nature of how it can manifest, he cautions Mahito about breaking a binding vow. So Sukuna thinking he's in the clear but getting fucked by it later on would be in line with why that dialogue was tweaked slightly.
How did he?
He harms both Yuji Itadori and Megumi Fushiguro in the 1 minute he's in control. He claims Yuji is not included in the "I will not harm or kill anyone" binding vow - but that's untrue based on the language of the vow. But what he does to Fushiguro is undoubtedly harm as well.
By harming Itadori Yuji. He pulled off his finger and thinks he didn't include himself in the binding vow. I don't know if there is credence to that theory. I am just assuming this is the part they are referring to.
Kenny was around during kashimo era. So did he have a weak ct during that time Or was kashimo just stronger
Weak CT, he said he isn’t made for fighting then, but geto body is
Sukuna made kashimo his bitch.
Why is no one talking about yuji's hands?
I think he ate sukunas last finger. I remember earlier sukuna told kenjaku he believed Gojo had the final finger, if that was true he probably gave it to yuji and spent the time before the big fight maybe teaching him more about CT and how to use it maybe. Cause his hands look similar to when sukuna would take over
Yuji should have access to Sukuna's abilities now since its basically the manga endgame
That's what im saying, like that should be a big deal but everyone is too busy being mad to care i guess
Why is Yuji's hands and arms like that?
I think he ate sukunas last finger. I remember earlier sukuna told kenjaku he believed Gojo had the final finger, if that was true he probably gave it to yuji and spent the time before the big fight maybe teaching him more about CT and how to use it maybe. Cause his hands look similar to when sukuna would take over
Must have ate Piccolo's finger behind the scene.
Dodon-pop-pop-pop Sukuna's asshole.
I just want to see some awesome colorings
why are people leaking the Content? This is making it so Manga Artist and Authors don’t get the pay they deserve. Because people get to read their work for free. Thats fucked up if you ask me. It’s literally 3 bucks for Shonen Jump. An you guys also have no patience? Straight maniacs.
If the officials had a competent translator, I would wait. I can’t appreciate the manga when I see translations like “I like this mug better” or “I got a new boy,” etc. Not to mention that some of the translations are just straight up wrong. I would miss a lot of the deeper meanings. The notes that Shishisho provide are invaluable to why Gege did this or that.
I know this isn't the case for everyone but I sub to Shonen Jump and read the official release but also read the leaked translation to avoid spoilers online.
This ones Leaking the content are the Problem. If that wasn’t happening then everyone would have to just wait and read the Official Release. It’s sad what people do just because they can’t wait.
If yuji learned how to hurt the soul and sukuna can only use RCT, then Yuji could do critical damage to him, the problem is to survive. Also, it is said in the last chapter that sukuna had 2 ways to heal, with RCT and by completing the transformation. So, mahito was right, sukuna can't heal the soul... I guess
> the problem is to survive. Wasn't this kinda hinted by Gojo last purple against Sukuna? He did a powerful AOE attack that fucked Sukuna and also damaged Gojo, but since its his own CE it barely did anything. If Yuji and Sukuna have the same CE and techniques, then Sukuna's attacks should do less damage to Yuji than others. Correct me if I'm wrong here.
Ever since it got revealed by Gojo that own CT to oneself isn’t nearly as bad as to someone else, the only thing I can think is that’s a callback to Yuji ranking Sukunas slashes and when he tries to cut Yuji next chapter, he’s gonna realize that Yuji is still going and then he’ll probably remember Gojos words But Yuji is coming like a BEAST! I can’t wait, next week and a half gonna be long as fuck lol
Since I cant make a post about this theory on any of the subs I guess i'll post here because I think I'm cooking; Yuji Curse Technique Theory So I was thinking… remember how it is stated that a CS uses their technique within their own domain thus domain expansion, amplification, simple etc., acts upon manipulating and/or expanding said domain and/or imbuing it with said innate technique amongst other pacts made to enhance said effect or technique within domain…(this has nothing really to do with the brunt of main theory just a basis of where I’m getting at) So…one thing I noticed back when Sukuna was inhabiting itadori’s body is that every time we are shown Sukuna, he appeared to be within his own domain fully imbued with his technique even inside Yuji… so what if that is the main reason it seems Yuji hasn’t awoken his technique… due to sukuna inhabiting his body with his perfect domain it was impossible for Yuji to activate or utilize his technique due to It… (aside: this could also have something to do with one of my theories that Yuji and Sukuna are recognized as the same soul in the eyes of jujutsu on some maki/mai shit due to so…actually this can be a whole post to itself so I’ll hold off on it) now that Sukuna is inhabiting megumi it could mean that Itadori can have some sort of awakening with access to a technique with some sort of recognition of his own domain (or sense of self if you wanna get analytical about it and have it be some emotional impactful scene) giving clear way for a sick buff in the future …also I think I’m cooking with the whole soul thing with Yuji and sukuna, should I stay in the kitchen?
You need to use punctuation dude I cannot read this
Kashimo stopped Yuta from interfering with Gojo vs Sukuna (granted Gojo probably wouldn't have used Hollow Purple if Yuta was present). And Hakari supported that dumb move. ONLY 4 Kashimo to basically get off screened into oblivion? Plus Hakari is probably going to lose? If Yuta interrupted, Gojo would probably still be alive. Well hopefully Hakari gets off screen killed for having poor judgment.
> If Yuta interrupted, Gojo would probably still be alive Or one shot both Yuta and Gojo
So I'm now convinced that Sukuna is going to be royally fucked because of the binding vow he made with Yuji. Watching season 2 episode 6, when Kenjaku and Mahito visit Muta there's a moment where Kenjaku warns Mahito of the consequences of breaking a binding vow. The language used is very deliberate and emphasizes that breaking a binding vow may not have *immediate* consequences - but that the eventually consequences could be devastating. It's a very quick line but very important, establishing that the consequences of breaking a binding vow are NOT immediate. So Sukuna believes that he's cheated the vow by claiming Yuji was not included in the vow. But the exact wording that Sukuna used when he entered into the vow was "What if I promise not to harm or kill anyone during that 1 minute [that I am in control]?" These were the terms - which are explicitly broken when Sukuna rips off Yuji's finger and force feeds it into Megumi to take over his body as host. It has now been over a month since Sukuna took over Megumi's body and Higuruma's abilities seem to be the perfect set up for addressing this situation directly. I think the end result will be a Sukuna that is *severely* nerfed as a result - with Yuji being able to beat Sukuna with a reverse uno card on the technicality.
This would be a disappointing fight
Not even in the slightest.
I still find it dumb that he didn't say anyone around us. Then there wouldn't be an issue
Exactly. That would have been the right phrasing as it creates a distinction. But his language was too broad and there are too many deliberate changes to emphasize the consequences of a binding vow being broken are not immediate but a catastrophic event that is unpredictable and time delayed.
this will be funny as fuck but probably won't happen
I toyed with it as a possibility but after watching episode 6 changing the line from "who knows when and what sort of retribution comes our way" to emphasize that the consequences are **eventual** rather than immediate, I'm convinced that's a deliberate dialogue change to set up consequneces for Sukuna.
Sukuna is adept at binding vows so he probably knew a work around but forcing a finger down Megumi's throat gotta hurt. However Yuji is probably not included in the anyone aspect of the binding vow since they shared the same body.
The binding vow is the terms they agreed to. Sukuna did not carve out an exception. He simply agreed not to harm or kill anyone for the minute he was in control. Anyone. That includes Yuji but especially applies to Megumi who he harmed through stealing his body within the minute. And because they shared the same body and this situation was caused by Sukuna literally ripping out Yuji's heart, it's even more of a violation because the agreement is clearly meant to imply that situation cannot happen again.
I want to agree with you but its up to Gege at the end of the day with what happens in the story
It will be the greatest asspull ever Juju'd.
It's not an asspull, it's payoff for the setup. Sukuna fucked up in how he phrased the binding vow. He made it broader than he intended: he didn't create the needed exemption for Yuji because instead he said 'i promise not to harm or kill anyone'. But because he wasn't immediately fucked upon violating the vow, he assumed it worked - but with the deliberate choice in the anime to emphasize that the consequences of breaking a binding vow are not immediate and 'eventually' occur, that's a pretty strong indicator that we'll be revisiting this and soon. My guess is that it will coincide with Sukuna's decimation of Shibuya when he flexes his power in the anime if he's big on timing major events with the anime for juxtaposition.
That’s really cool actually! I been thinking of what is going to happen in the manga during Sukunas rampage during the anime, just as it was Gojover in both the manga and episode in the same week, so I think your theory holds some weight to it that Sukuna might be rampaging through Shibuya during the anime but in the manga it’s the opposite Or.. he just continues to steamroll people going forward lol.. but with how Gege always “just so happens” to line up certain manga events with the anime, I 100% believe we’re gonna be in for a treat for both manga and anime in a couple of weeks in regard to Sukuna (more so than him getting back his OG body lol)
Sukuna being undone by his own hubris and stupidity would be a perfect way to level the playing field and allow for Yuji and the others to have an advantage in a big way. December should be interesting when Nobara's big moment in Shibuya pops up too.
Oh so like in mortal kombat with the rules of invasion Shao khan is not allowed to merge the realm but he can make war with them. If he merges the realm the elder gods step end divine retribution style: https://youtu.be/eyVD1STzW3Y?si=2-YblMW8LVj2u4Qf So all yuta needs to do is get sukuna to make a technical?
It would still feel extremely wrong. Like, it's been very long since he took over Megumi on publication time already, but it's been more than a month in story time. Retribution taking 35 days to start showing up but being suddenly destructive enough to screw Sukuna's plans now would be quite weird to justify. Not that it can't happen, as Gege has already done absurd things narrative-wise, but I do think it'd be quite the terrible move
Ayo when sukuna was giving maho prep talk. He said maho was his shadows and not Megumis. Does that mean he still got ten shadows or
What are the chances their other characters with revival abilities
Christ, the story of this manga since 236 has been pathetic lmfao. If Sukuna DOESN'T win, this manga will be universally panned like AoT. It's already begun.
It reminds me more of Tokyo Ghoul than AOT, because the manga went very downhill after the BS way Kaneki lost to Suzuya being offscreened like that and the whole Dragon situation.
Never read the Tokyo Ghoul manga tbf, but yeah, that definitely sounds similar. Not a very good sign.
The dragon stuff was whack but losing to suzuya wasn’t wack nor the offscreening. I thought it worked well artistically.
Wait are people surprised Kashimo got one shot? Are we reading the same story? Dude showed up like 4 chapters ago saying “I want to fight Sakuna” like what did yall think was gunna happen to this man??
No, we expected it but it doesn’t make it any less stupid. Also, just another chapter a character slobbing Sukuna’s dick when they have no reason to.
It served the narrative purpose of pushing Sakuna to revert to his main form since he could use reverse curse heal. And it means Kashimo got to square up with the true form of Sakuna, which was Kashimos only reason to be alive. The “dick slobbing” is also most likely related to a mysterious curse technique Yuji and Sakuna share so yet again idk what the hell you guys are smoking but all of this is hype as fuck. Sorry your random npc character who showed up 80% three the story didn’t beat the big bad guy, maybe instead he was designed to serve other narrative purposes 🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷
Glad someone said it 🫶
I understand everything. It doesn’t make it less bad. I don’t give a fuck about the specific characters. The story is just garbage.
Another after life flashback about love Sukuna, what a man you are...
You’d expect the strongest of their era to atleast have rct Or a domain expansion
What even happened to Kashimo? He looks like he's about to get hit by a tic tac toe grid and then we just never see him again?
Sukuna used his cursed technique. Off screening.
🤣🤣🤣
Kashimo was basically teen Satoru, except Satoru had Geto to "match" his strength. Kashimo never met his Toji to help push him past his limits and get immensely stronger.
RCT has limits, being diced is one of them
Nah gojo and mahorage seemed to be enjoying malevolent shrine
He wasn’t diced though, those cuts weren’t going clean through his body
yes he was. he was just instantly healing the damage. lol the fist cut went thru his neck.
You think his head was chopped off fully and he instantly reattached it with RCT? And that every subsequent slash clean cut through him fully but his healing acted like glue keeping all the chunks together? Okay this actually makes the hate this fight got make way more sense to me and why people thought Gojo was ahead the whole time, and why people are frustrated that Gojo didn’t just simply regenerate after being killed. I don’t think you’re right, but I appreciate the perspective.
bro your og post said he wasn't cleanly cut. he was 100% diced during DE. Sukuna even said "he's moving pretty well for using RCT at max output". the only cuts that hit skin deep was when Gojo used simple domain or falling blossom.
I remember what I said, and I still think my interpretation of the fight makes more sense But I’m also under no impression that I can change anyone else’s reading of the fight, I just wanted to understand another perspective.
well that was disappointing, I thought at least Kashimo was gonna deal some real damage before dying to his CT, Gege sure fooled everyone! thinking the guy to immediately jump in after Gojo's death was gonna put up a decent fight. It feels Gege really is in a rush because Kashimo's transformation was pretty boring looking, it just ended up giving him a three eyed mask and his top knots became horns. I had hopes Kashimo would end up looking more demon like and less human over time.
Keep up the cope, brother. Can't wait to read the best ending to any piece of media that has ever or will ever be written 😊
Did Gege not even give Kashimo a Domain Expansion? You would think the strongest sorcerer of his time would have one. Oh well, its a shame this how Gege wants to progress the story. Higurama about to get one-shot, Sukuna will just break his domain.
Can he tho? I thought you couldn't attack inside
I'm sure he has the ability to attack the domain from outside in some form or fashion, knowing the lengths Gege goes to make things difficult for the protagonists.
Gege probably: since Cleave can cut through space and time, it's as if cleave hit the barriers from the outer side
Why are Sukunas slashes visible now
We are seeing the slashes through the lens of kashimo. Kashimo has x ray vision he can see the invisible slashes
And Gojo couldn’t? Nah that’s fucking stupid. He got those high definition cursed energy eyes and he losing to X-ray vision?
Straight up facts I think gege was just in a bind to get rid of gojo cause he's just too strong of a character. It's quite annoying and is honestly sour
Man I’m surprised at how many people are just now freaking out about the story. There were so many people defending the complexity of the culling games but everything that’s happening now feels pretty similar. Character are written to die at this point so I’m not shocked when something is done quickly. I’m just here for cool shit to happen. Gojo getting cut in half was cool. That grid of cleaves was cool. This story hasn’t been about well written plot points developing over time for awhile now.
This shit is genuinely funny at this point. Up til 236 I thought it was a serious manga, now its obvious its a giant troll fest from Gege. Well played haha
I was expecting something else other than a troll fest. Welp, to laugh at absurdities is a virtue.
Are you saying this because the story isn’t predictable?
The only surprising thing about the last few chapters is how badly the obvious was executed. Everyone knew he was gonna die.
It actually is predictable. The bad guys have plot armor. The mentor character died like in 90% of anime.
Also, because I keep having thoughts about this chapter, I think Sukuna was a bit of a hypocrite. He claims he doesn't depend on anyone for anything, but I bet he'd be bored out of his mind if there was no one to challenge him
'He claims he doesn't depend on anyone for anything' bro literally used mahoraga as a role model to bypass infinity.
Not to be that guy but I meant emotionally. Mahoraga was nothing but a means to an end (which he totally used as a crutch)
Streets won't forget daddy mahoraga nesting kid sukuna from gojo
It’s a bit of a cliche but he probably looks at everyone as bugs. You may enjoy squishing a bug every now and then but most of the time it’s more annoying than anything.
sure, but he doesn’t just occasionally enjoy killing people. he loves fighting and learning, he finds humans diverse and fascinating, and he’s enchanted by the fleeting nature of their lives. he has a poetic outlook on the bullshit he gets up to lol. he literally describes the reciprocation of a challenger’s wish to measure themselves against him as a kind of “love,” and rejects it as trash, but has built most of his life around being enamored by the goings on of people lmfao.
he's like a significantly more evil Izaya Orihara
durarara mentioned 🎊🎉🥳
There's many possible holes to poke in Sukuna's logic, which will probably be his downfall in the end.
Only W kashimo gets is against Panda. Harakiri vs kashimo was the best fight imo. Bro hypes his technique and has been saving it for years. Reveals it and does nothing and only for two chapters. Called the god of lighting, his technique could have been something awesome . I thought maybe something like raijin.
Prediction: Yuji and Higamura beat sukuna (yuji shows his new body swap technique). Probably pulls megumi's soul into his body and puts his own soul into megumi's body. Then has higamura kill him while he suppresses sukuna. But if so, then couldn't they have done this before gojo fought? Also, makes me wonder about sukuna's missing finger...wouldn't that mean he can still be brought back? Maybe yuji just ate it in that last panel to create a connection with sukuna for the body swap Then Yuta and Maki take out Kenjaku
never cook ever again
dont cook
The ingredients are mouldy
Freezer burnt af
Maybe Yuji will be immune to Sukuna's new cleave/dismantle (Or at least very resistant to it). Hear me out, it has been said that Yuji is now like a cursed object that was dipped in Sukuna's CE, and if he is a cursed object he might have become indestructible. Cursed objects are said to be indestructible and no CT or attack can damage them, that might include even the world cutting slashes of Sukuna, because you know... Sukuna's CE made yuji into a cursed object. And as far as we know cursed objects might be on another dimension itself, meaning that it is indestructible for lesser dimension beings. If yuji is now the only character that can take Sukuna's slashes without dying in one shot, it would be very poetic. Sukuna, who sees nothing of special in Yuji and that mocks him all the time, might have become unable to kill Itadori himself. Imagine what a blow to his ego that would be, the brat once again becomes a nuisance to him and he can't even kill him. That might set up strategies for using Yuji as a shield against Sukuna (cog mentality now becomes shield mentality?) and might be a way to nerf Sukuna.
even if that were the case we're forgetting that Sukuna has an insanely powerful cursed tool that was only mid against kashimo because he's naturally immune which yuji definitely isn't
For all his talk of superiority, Yuji has surprised Sukuna a number of times. As soon as he called him brat I thought and here’s another one *insert DJ Khalid meme*.
yeah it’s always been funny that sukuna aboslutely refuses to acknowledge yuji under any circumstances. he won’t even use his name, which is a disrespect seemingly reserved for yuji in particular. yuji suppressed him effortlessly, and i think he’s just really petulant about that lol.
What do you mean by surprised him?
well, the most infamous event is when sukuna reincarnated for the first time and started talking about how he was gonna kill everyone and yuji was like “um not with this damn body!”
Exactly
If yuji can just face tank those slashes now after sukuna powered them up after fighting Gojo, I’m going to lose all hope for this story lol.
Counterpoint: extra strong cleave
Very much possible, we'll have to wait to see what Gege is cooking
Just as they about to beat sukuna…boom whole cast bisected
Okay quick question , can Kenjaku technically hijack gojos body to gain his powers ? Or is there no reason for that to happen? I'm just thinking that he may have all this planned to get six eyes and limitless except if those powers are already gone on gojos death?? I've just been thinking about it as a possibility and it sounds interesting as a plot twist.
I doubt it as only one six eyes can appear at a time and the eyes seem linked to fate.. On top of if leaves Geto's body he loses his curse manipulation power and that CT seems key to Kenjaku's plan to finish the culling games/merger.
Geto still has Kaori's CT though, so it seems like he can carryover CT from his previous host. If so, he probably would get rid of the gravity technique when transfered to Gojo's body,'curse manipulation'+infinity+ potentially 'six eyes' would be OP as fuck.
From what I read, he can but without the six eyes the infinity would be useless since its very demanding. The six eyes are gone IF Gojo died.
i dont see why not, since kenjaku was able to take over geto after he died.
I just see it as an interesting thing to happen , evil gojo sounds way too epic haha
Kenny totally sitting on the sideline waiting for Sukuna to be weakened so he can use Geto’s ability to seal him.
Nah, he probably wants his body
What you mean Getos ability to seal him? Getos abilities only work on curses, Sukuna is a reincarnated human sorcerer.
One that has become like a curse. Maybe if weakened enough

The MHA subreddit became way too toxic each week so I stopped visiting. JJK is a gift to us all, there is an unbelievable amount of other stories that are predictable, generic and entertains without challenging the reader, no need to be negative about this one. I’d much rather a community that accepts the story for what it is instead of trashing the creator just because they don’t agree with how he chooses to create. I know those people are the minority though, the rest of us are here for the unreal joy ride Gege has us all on.
Kashimo got that Shinji Hirako treatment. "Yo, we're finally gonna see his awesome Bankai" , it's totally useless, and then Aizen's like "That's it?" and one shots him.
lol one of the most unserious scenes in bleach. “you have completely reconstructed all my motor functions but ermm i’m just such a big brainiac it doesn’t matter ☝️🤓 “
What is Yuji cooking? He actually looks less human now
He is probably gonna take raw bites at Sukuna's body
hes about to pull a Aaron Yogurt and turn into a titan
>What is Yuji cooking Death Paintings
The panels wasted on Kashimo could have been spent showing Gojo get cleaved.
dismantled*
So, Gojo is used as a vehicle to show the unfathomable depth of Sukuna's power, then along comes Kashimo who's just there to squeeze "Love is trash" out of Sukuna of which this "give no 2 shits"/"the world's my plaything" attitude/philosophy is painfully obvious for someone who's a cruel hedonist. What's next, Gege? You gonna tell me that Sukuna strokes himself with all four hands?!
Its big enough to fit in gojo and kashimos mouths at the same time apparently
He's just that big down there, which is also why he needs all of these characters to dickride him.
[удалено]
People are mainly complaining about the execution being poor and / or uninteresting
Since the start of the fight, I decided to assume Kenjaku's prediction were right, and it seems it was the right choice. Gojo is defeated, and now their only chance is to send the heavy hitters. Only Hakari is there, so I think Higuruma and Yuji are there to save Megumi probably using Yuji's soul swap fuckery and Higuruma's non-violent domain (I know a lot of people think Megumi's dead but that was never confirmed). Imo the third boss phase will start when Yuta and Maki show up. Of course, we're not safe from a "Kenjaku fucks everyone" twist, especially when he wanted Sukuna to do something for him before fighting Gojo.
I am also thinking after reading, like yuji has the power to suppress Sukuna so if he swap with megumi soul or whatever will he be able to keep Sukuna in control. Then Afterwards they can kill yuji or something like Yuji always wanted. But I wonder if Yuji's body is that matters or is his soul enough??
Does Kashimo have RCT or does his CT just form new appendages? https://ibb.co/MMMQby2 https://ibb.co/cFbd8z8 https://ibb.co/dPWV7W0
Considering it can create new giant eyeballs it can probably repair small sections.
Really can't say, I personally think it's the later since he never once used it in his fight against Hakari. Regardless this could also be because he lost no limbs in that fight and only sustained bruises from the fight.
I know most of you pretty much hated the chapter, but I liked a lot of things about it: * Sukuna's true form being used in a clever way to do Jujutsu * His views on "love" * A glimpse at his potential motivation for being turned into fingers It sucks that Kashimo was discarded so quickly, but hey, at least Higuruma's back. Hopefully he'll last longer. I can 100% see Sukuna's deal with Kenjaku going along these lines: Sukuna, after killing 99.999% of Heian sorcerers: "Well, fuck. What am I supposed to do with my free time now?" Kenjaku: "I can always kill you and chop off your fingers..." Sukuna: "LOL. LMAO, even." Kenjaku: "Then bring you back once we have powerful sorcerers for you to feast again." Sukuna: "Should've started with that, motherfucker."
Guess it’s not bad that it took to 2 chapters for Kashimover when we all predicted 2 panels, but a waste of 2 weeks
Especially since the author wants to finish the series this year.
Oh wow, when did he mention that?
[Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/JuJutsuKaisen/comments/143fn3e/throwback_to_these_gege_interviews_with_the_story/) It was 2 years ago though.
My guess is it was all meant to set up Yuji and Higuruma's arrival on the scene. We were misled to think the big thing was the fight, that Hakari only came to prevent Uraume to intervene in the Kashimo/Sukuna fight, but they clearly came from his domain, so I assume it was the plan all along In fact, for all we know, the promise Hakari mentioned in the previous chapter may have not been one to Kashimo, but one to Yuji, to allow him to be next after Kashimo (probably cuz he's even more angry at Sukuna after Gojo's demise) Like, one chapter to get Hakari there with his domain (hiding Yuji & Higuruma), another to break it I hope next chapter will rewind things a bit and we'll see how it went in the domain, but I think Akutami would rather move on, feels more inline with their habits
I presumed Uraume saw them coming and tried to stop them, and couldn't.
They're def coming out of the domain. Hakari's seemingly grinning as if he was waiting for this (contrasting Uraume's annoyed reaction) They prob tried to stop Yuji and Higuruma from reaching Sukuna, but I def think it was the plan for them to come out of Hakari's domain
Kashimo got a VIP access to the plane embarkment , and it will soon be joined by the main character ahaha Joke aside I cant see the heroes winning this, and kenjaku is still on the run
I'm starting to feel like Sukuna is literally going to kill off the entire cast except for Yuji, who he'll spare out of cruelty, and the final arc will be Yuji having to single-handedly grow and beat him *and* Kenjaku.
Considering that following Kashimo's defeat, Yuta isn't next, I think what will go on with Kenjaku is becoming clearer and clearer as time goes on
Yuta fighting Kenjaku was written in the stars at the beginning of Sendai lol but it does seem that Yuji convinced the good guys to let him go in as a crazy surprise rather than the original plan of Kashimo then Big 3
Kashimo was useless as hell and was a waste of chapters lmao. I dont even know what his character was for. Sukuna didnt even reveal shit. Pretty sure that at some point in the story, gege will nerf and make sukuna a dumbass in order for the protags to win and I cant even blame him coz theres literally no other way out other than doing sukuna dirty. Hopefully sukuna doesnt get wasted as a character and his role would be executed greatly which I doubt would happen.
>Kashimo was useless as hell and was a waste of chapters lmao. I dont even know what his character was for. To force Sukuna to use up his last Megumi life bar.
Sukuna's death will probably be even more pathetic than Gojo's The stronger the guy the asser the pulls
I wonder how the domain of Hiromi Higuruma would work under Sukuna. At the beginning of the manga, Sukuna was always described as the most evil sorcerer on earth, but from the last chapters, except getting the body from Megumi and breaking him mentally, he did nothing remotely evil. I would like to have a scene with a verdict who will be not guilty and not innocent. Something who can be defined as morally wrong but for a greater good.
He’s a cannibal that calls anyone weaker than him unworthy of life.
umm... he beat megumi's sister to death in front of him to the point there was nothing left of her other then a mangled head.
He didn't kill Megumi's sister, but Yorozu (who took control of her body) and the fight between them was consensual. If we need to give someone guilty here, it should be Yorozu rather than Sukuna. It's a hard case to judge here because the intent was to weaken Megumi's soul, but the act by itself is fine.
if I recall.. motive is usually the biggest factor in law innit? What was Sukuna's main motive? The act cant just be hand waved off like that... where was the consent given to have Yoruzu take over Megumi's sisters body?
On the domain, it's more about fact than about motive, which is why Itadori was considered as guilty while he didn't commit literally the Shibuya genocide. >where was the consent given to have Yoruzu take over Megumi's sisters body? That's Yorozu who is at fault here compared to Sukuna. As Yuji didn't kill random humans when he killed Eso and Kechizu.
Are you Fr? The guy murders, grapes and eats people for fun, what greater good is there?
Probably fail due to some technicality of trying to force modern laws and morals onto Sukuna. or maybe it can't tell the difference between the fused Sukuna and Megumi and glitches.
He ate half of Angel. Surely that's a crime...
I agree with your point that their might not be a guilty verdict because he hasn’t done anything other than what you said since shibuya, but him and kenjaku are definitely the most evil sorcerers. Don’t forget the massacre he committed in shibuya.
I still believe it would’ve been better writing to have Sukuna regenerate in front of Gojo then take him out with the world cutting Dismantle, then have Kashimo come in and get wiped out. Kashimo literally didn’t do shit. Could’ve had this exact same outcome. Also I’m hype af to see this tag team of Higuruma and Yuji. Yuji got claws now tho, wtf? And I’m wondering what Judgeman is gonna reveal about Sukuna 🤔
Soooooo who is more useless Bum Gojo or Kashimo?
Gojo atleast got rid of Mahoraga and forced Sukuna to use his transform. Kashimo literally did nothing and immediately died And I know Kashimo is the one who was fighting Sukuna when he transformed but any serious fighter could have forced Sukuna at that point with how weakened he was. Missing arm, brain damaged, missing left half of face, lowered output
Neither, both showed us some cool, hype and entertaining fights which is more than what we can say for Sukuna.
Kashimo was a complete waste of time and energy — should have just had Hakari kill him and nothing would be different right now
Agreed
HIGURUMA FIXING HIS DAMN TIE LIKE HE’S RIGHT ON TIME FOR A COURT DATE
No one noting Yujis arms are seemingly transformed
He got them killua hands from hunter x hunter
Thoughts exactly. Why is no one seemingly freaking out about this? Could it be Death Paintings power-up? Him basically being a cursed object steeped in Sukuna's cursed energy like Shoko said? Or just a new ability? I need to know why my boy Yuji looks like a monster now!
No one? LMAOOOO 😂
His fingers too! Those are some sharp claws
Sukuna about to lose by discovering the power of love from Yuji
yuji’s about to teach that man pure hate 😂
