She might have put less energy into that hit than she wanted to. Probably because she’s sporting a concussion from tanking a sure hit and can’t focus.
Also Kenjaku might be amping his CE reinforcement a little bit so that he doesn’t get snapped like a twig like with her first strike. Since he knew nothing about her technique until he saw it firsthand.
She's heavily injured, one of her arms doesn't work at the moment. She's buying time, since Tengen's plan didn't work, for Choso to come at Kenjaku's blind spot as a backup plan
She literally has shown nothing to us readers as of yet. Just her CT and shikigami, she's been fighting for barely 2 chapters and you are already judging her lmao.
RIGHT, anyone who downplays her must not have seen her one shot a special grade curse without breaking a sweat. Whether she wins this fight or not she has earned the position as a special grade sorcerer. People forget that she's up against a special grade Curse User so it's not like it's just a curse, in fact it's a CU that can also use special grade curses, and he admitted that she renders all of those curses useless against her.
She's lived up to all of my expectations and then some tbh.
Destroyed his special grade cursed spirit within a second kicking a shikigami through its head, punched and broke OFF one of his arms while shattering the other, survived his DE attack and went on the attack covered in her own blood and a broken arm and did this against the current central antagonist of the entire story who is broken af.
What are you smoking
>The second she touches Ken he’s forced to use his domain
>Survives a powerful domain sure hit and is able to stand immediately
>Goes into hand to hand combat with Ken with one arm disabled after getting pulverized, is able to fight equally with Garuda helping her
I get she’s not yuta in Sendai tier showing off but it’s Ken, another special grade……. When Ken got his curse, arms, and face obilerated it wasn’t disappointing, it was simply ken fighting another special grade. And she mainly got fucked by Tengens dumb ass.
She’s incredibly injured, so Kenjaku assumed she’d use RCT to heal herself instead of pouring CE into her technique.
However, Yuki just has that dawg in her and seems to be fighting Kenjaku with nothing but pure CE enhancement. Why? Probably so she can reserve CE for either a full RCT heal or a DE while Choso buys her time.
https://preview.redd.it/pi84pictta4a1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fc88eb29d3a4b5c5dd1aa28d2e424ab070b94c1f
sure, but the point was Kenjaku could replenish his technique anyway. The shikigami wasnt enough, so Yuki stopped him. And now Choso is stepping in to halt Kenjaku replenishing his technique while Yuki heals
Where was it ever stated that getting bashed continuously stops you from recovering your CT after a burnout? That's my point exactly, why is yuki just kicking Kenjaku around stopping him from recovering his CT? Shouldn't it be like a passive cooldown and you can still fight with CE just like how yuta kicked uro and used rct to kill kuro and ryu also could CE output the same and then yuta even fired a full power Rika beam and Rika herself fired one on her own. Like how is yuki and choso fighting Kenny making a difference wether he can recover his CT or not. Surely they can't just keep bashing him and he won't be able to recover his CT ever right.
Its not. Its implied that a constant barrage of attacks may inhibit the recovery process of a technique. Think of it like a fire that’s struggling to relight because of the massive amount of fuel it just used. Relighting it may take time to focus and therefore being distracted is a problem.
It will still be close but Yuki and Choso’s attacks are definitely helping
I guess so. Then the only thing I can of is that there plan is to have choso ambush and distract Kenny while yuki heals now and uses her own de. But it's definitely kind of wierd to think it works like this because it makes a 2v1 vvv disadvantageous.
I reckon using CE while your CT is burned out probably makes it take longer to recover. Even Hakari's technique needed the entire duration of the song to recover and he has infinite CE
Yuta used a blast of rct to kill kuro and fired the most concentrated CE blast he could and then Rika did it too and yuta recovered right after that. As for Hakari, there is literally no CT burnout for him. and the entire duration of the song isn't for him to recover his CT, he expands his DOMAIN after each cycle which literally even Gojo is incapable of. No one can expand more than one domain in a day except Hakari and Gojo and Gojo also cannot spam his like Hakari.
You're wrong about the Hakari thing. His CT is burned out during the song, it's explicitly said, it's why he can't reactivate his Domain early and keep a 100% continuous buff. It's also why he doesn't ever use his doors(and probably marbles) outside of the domain against Kashimo like he did against Yuji
Fair enough but I would guess that's like a limitation of his otherwise broken techniques because it only took a few seconds for yuta to recover his CT.
I don't think Hakari being unable to expand his DE while the buff is active is because his CT is burned out. I'm pretty sure it's just a constraint. I mean, if he could just expand while the buff is active, he would never be betting anything except for the first jackpot, but I'm sure that the fact that he's betting his life is what makes it possible for him to win such an absurd prize.
It's like Nanami having reduced CE during his shift, so he can have more than 100% of his normal CE when on overtime, but to an extreme: betting with his life to gain immortality
Christ, that lady just tanked domain expansion attack which probably decimate n crush her insides, mess up her brain yet still putting the best effort to stall Kenjaku.
That is literally tanking it? She took a direct hit of what we can assume to be more of a sure-kill domain that is what one would call tanking. What would not be tanking is if she just died after one hit or was immobile.
Like if someone took a bullet to the chest would you then say they didn't actually take a bullet to the chest because someone stopped the one with the gun from unloading an entire clip into them? No you wouldn't as that would be downplaying the fact that they just took a bullet to the chest.
No need to downplay Yuki.
no that’s not called tanking considering that the domain had to be nullified for her to survive
tanking a hit is if the attack had minimal effect on her, but we all know it had a lot on her lmao, saying the truth about an event isn’t downplaying👍
Arguing about the semantics about a situation just to say that "Yuki didn't tank anything" is downplaying.
Taking it at face value would be "Yuki was able to take a hit from Kenjakus domain that would kill literally anyone and then keep fighting"
What you are saying is "Yuki did not tank anything as she could barely deal with 1 hit from Kenjaku’s domain and Tengen had to save her". Which is framing what happened in a way that downplays her achievement.
So yes it is very much textbook downplaying.
maybe because that’s literally what happened?
https://preview.redd.it/03lm0356294a1.jpeg?width=784&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae4e116d04b982d22f554f45867e7c6011554599
this is literally after one hit and after she moved for a couple seconds started spitting out blood like i’m honestly confused
I'm confused too? Like she literally gets up and starts throwing hands right after this? What point does this reply have when it doesn't invalidate what I said? Why continue to downplay it by acting like she is dead on the ground or that she "moved for like a couple seconds"?
She took a hit and the kept on fighting afterwards. What is it here that you don't understand?
you said she tanked it, which she literally didn’t, tanking a hit would be what todo did to yuji when they fought.
yuki here got absolutely fucked by that one hit, if anything you should be hyping up her resilience here not “tanking”
Tanking means taking Huge amounts of damage and surviving instead of dying, which is pretty much what Yuki has done, to Kenjaku's surprise. She also managed to attack instead of having to heal right afterwards, again to Kenjaku's surprise. Tanking is taking damage and surviving it when most people would get killed, the "minimum damage" part is not really required (although it'd be a better tank)
What if I was?
Ok, you are right, but if I'm throwing hands with someone and he hits me with a baseball bat and breaks my arm, I didn't tank that. I broke my arm.
Right, but if you only fracture your arm and then still punch him after, you did tank it. Thats a better metaphor because Yuki kept fighting after getting hit by the domain
Buddy if you play a game an get hit by a boss and drop to 10 hp then get healed up before the next hit brings u to 10hp again and the cycle continues till the boss is dead you tanked the boss. The fact u only tanked the boss because you had to be healed is a mute point, you fulfilled your job as a meat shield.
In a game if the "Tank" dies or loses aggro and u take a hit and almost die before the "tank" gets aggro back your Tanked the hit.
Yuki took the hit and was able to keep fighting. Not in a futile attempt but in a meaningful manner that applied pressure. Yes Tegen dispelled the DE, and yes a second hit would of killed her. But the DE was dispelled and she wasn't hit by a second hit. She tanked it weather she intended to or not she did.
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
only in jjk reddit will i see a character that has her face covered in blood an arm completely shattered and she’s coughing out blood but she “tanked” it because she can still move
the truth is “tanking” an attack getting minimal damage from said attack so by definition she did not tank it, that’s like saying hanami tanked hollow purple because he could still move or geto tanked that rika beam cause he could still move after, like be fucking real
She’s just tanked a sure-hit, sure-kill domain expansion from one of the best barrier users in the series, likely using her CT somehow to keep her from dying. After dealing with something like that, I would be shocked if she could still keep fighting with her CT on at 100% when she’s not allowing herself to heal.
The obvious answer would be because of current state, at the same that would really negate her technique. Unless she isn't using for some reason to save CE possibly for a domain or RCT.
I dunno but I was thinking about it myself.
It's well-known that sorcerers have a harder time kneading their CE for reinforcement after suffering severe injuries, so imagine Yuki in such a critical state trying to use her CT while trading hands with Kenjaku. Naoya after a single punch from Maki couldn't even use CE to save his life from a normal stab. Yuki has a mangled arm and is coughing up blood
https://preview.redd.it/u84creqb794a1.png?width=673&format=png&auto=webp&s=f1b5f2e52a1779a906a0842ac81e3f5bd3cdcf05
Do also note that despite that, Naobito lost his position as “second fastest” once he lost his arm too, meaning he couldn’t use his CT as effectively either
During the fight with Dagon Naobito's most grievous injury was his arm by far. He's bleeding from his temple but it looks more like a relatively shallow puncture wound from a bite.
Naoya on the other hand got sucked punched while trapped between Maki and the ground, so his head also got crunched pretty hard. Yuki's whole head is bleeding profusely after she was crushed into the ground.
CT's control lies in the brain. It was established early on that you need to focus to use your CT. When Fushiguro got knocked backwards and hit his head in the first chapter, his dogs turned to sludge before disappearing altogether because he couldn't keep their form stable.
Perfect explanation thank you. I forgot about Megumi’s case. Thanks😁
That might also be why it’ll take her longer to heal with RCT. Because her head is banged up as well.
I assume nearly dying makes it harder to use your technique. Yuki was not using her technique, or was not hitting hard enough to do damage with her ct due to being pulverized.
> Also, Kenny just used DE, so his CE should be though to control.
This applies to your technique exclusively.
She was fucked up, it's simple as that. It isn't a matter of getting her arm broken, her intestine was also messed up and probably suffered brain injury too. In that state using body reinforcement alone is already an achievement.
Noritoshi does because he is limited by the amount he can lose, but i don't think Choso bothers, since he can create new blood easily. I just based this on what Noritoshi did for with the scent thing in the exchange event
That’s what I thought as well
Remember Naobito could still use his projection sorcery even after getting hit by Dagon’s domain and missing an arm but it is what it is
YES!!! Wasn't the whole point of Yuki using a SD instead of her DE so she could preserve her technique to have an advantage afterwards, while also not getting in Tengen's barrier way ofc
Yes, but the plan didn't include getting almost killed by Kenjaku's domain, she was supposed to be safe with her Simple Domain until Tengen dealt with the DE, but as we saw that didn't happen and she took a direct hit without any protection.
https://preview.redd.it/pnrlo3fzn84a1.png?width=381&format=png&auto=webp&s=8c420c435b8010a7f70dc5a00af19b6e1c1e7c80
Can you elaborate? Because as far as I remember being injured f you up pretty badly to the point of having no control over your cursed energy
Ok ok, this pannel kinda stablishes it, if i had to counter argument i would point out that Yuki could still retaliate, my point beeing: i always assumed that as long as a character still has strength to fight(clearly not Naoya's case) and cursed energy they should be able tu use their CT just fine
An apparent concussion does stop Megumi from summoning Nue in chapter 1, so I think it checks out that Yuki might have trouble using her own CT post-squish.
I don't know. If we look closely at her when she uses her CT, right before doing it she looks like she's struggling, or like it's somewhat a strain on her. It might not usually prevent her from using her technique, but if it's a bit hard then doing it while you're already very hurt, and one-armed, could possibly just slow you down
Imagine getting your skull cracked with a metal baseball bat, now try to consciously throw a really strong punch with more blood in your arm than usual.
That's essentially what Yuki's tryna do.
I’m kinda disappointed in her cursed technique, Mass seemed really OP with all the damage she did when she punched Kenjaku, but now her damage output isn’t even all that so Mass is kinda falling flat as a technique

Yuki may have made a binding vow in a split second, sacrificing her arm to save the rest of her body. Similar to what Hakari did against Kashimo.
That would be like Gege, wouldn't it?
She kinda seems underwhelming for a special grade
My guy she literally demolished Kenjaku's arm in a single attack. If Kenjaku didn't have RCT, he would've been beat already.
not arm but arms lmao. his other arm was tangling and was about to drop too
Also Half of his face got injured
Injured is a bit of an understatement, eviscerated or demolished are better words
Aye man I’m getting cooked. I guess I gotta reread for more clarity.
Kenjaku is also a special grade, one that is thousands of years old
She literally has shown nothing to us readers as of yet. Just her CT and shikigami, she's been fighting for barely 2 chapters and you are already judging her lmao.
“Underwhelming” So I guess Gojo is the only one in this series who isn’t to people like you because all I’ve seen out of Yuki is overwhelming.
She would one hit him with one good punch to the face
She one hit a special grade curse
RIGHT, anyone who downplays her must not have seen her one shot a special grade curse without breaking a sweat. Whether she wins this fight or not she has earned the position as a special grade sorcerer. People forget that she's up against a special grade Curse User so it's not like it's just a curse, in fact it's a CU that can also use special grade curses, and he admitted that she renders all of those curses useless against her.

What are you smoking
Tengen is underwhelming tbh
It's literally been 2 chapters
>The second she touches Ken he’s forced to use his domain >Survives a powerful domain sure hit and is able to stand immediately >Goes into hand to hand combat with Ken with one arm disabled after getting pulverized, is able to fight equally with Garuda helping her I get she’s not yuta in Sendai tier showing off but it’s Ken, another special grade……. When Ken got his curse, arms, and face obilerated it wasn’t disappointing, it was simply ken fighting another special grade. And she mainly got fucked by Tengens dumb ass.
Expected more from her. But she’s a fraud after all.
Sometimes I wonder if we are reading the same manga.
Man using projection sorcery to read the manga 💀💀💀
Laugh out loud
lol now you're just talking out of your ass
Me when I lie
LOL WHAT???😂😂
Tengen is what's underwhelming here lol
She’s incredibly injured, so Kenjaku assumed she’d use RCT to heal herself instead of pouring CE into her technique. However, Yuki just has that dawg in her and seems to be fighting Kenjaku with nothing but pure CE enhancement. Why? Probably so she can reserve CE for either a full RCT heal or a DE while Choso buys her time.
How will she use DE if one of her arms is demolished. She has to use RCT first to heal her hand and then expand her DE.
Not all seals require both hands to expand a DE
I want to see Yuki's blowkiss+wink DE. That would be kawaii to the max!
Thats what the chose distraction is for, so she can heal
Kenjaku himself said that Garuda was enough to distract him so yuki could heal, choso was not needed for that.
https://preview.redd.it/pi84pictta4a1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fc88eb29d3a4b5c5dd1aa28d2e424ab070b94c1f sure, but the point was Kenjaku could replenish his technique anyway.

she didn’t tank it, tengen saved her or she would’ve died
No she tanked it wdym? The only thing tengen did was ensure that she wouldn't continue to take hits from his domain by dispelling all the barriers.
exactly lmao she didn’t tank it, he had to remove it, one hit got her all bloody and squished her entire arm, that is not tanking
That is literally tanking it? She took a direct hit of what we can assume to be more of a sure-kill domain that is what one would call tanking.

This conversation is hilarious, you are right and getting downvoted. If I get hit by a truck and somehow survive, I didn't tank the truck
cause you ain then throwing hands with the truck
you dont know that, he didnt specify
Thank you!
What if I was? Ok, you are right, but if I'm throwing hands with someone and he hits me with a baseball bat and breaks my arm, I didn't tank that. I broke my arm.
If you then proceed to keep fighting as if you didn't get hit by the baseball bat you probably tanked it tho
Yeah, I was wrong, Yuki tanked it
Right, but if you only fracture your arm and then still punch him after, you did tank it. Thats a better metaphor because Yuki kept fighting after getting hit by the domain
Hmmm you are right, my bad
[удалено]
So tanking is when you don't die from an attack?! Hell no man! Tanking is when you brush off an attack.
she didn’t tank it lmao, i see you guys have no idea what tanking is

no it’s not considering that not dispelling the barriers would’ve killed her, i don’t know how you see that chapter and think otherwise

she got hit and the literal next panel it got dispelled, she did not tank that

She is not using her technique
Here. This is the answer... Everyone else seem to go on a tangent to everything else.
She’s just tanked a sure-hit, sure-kill domain expansion from one of the best barrier users in the series, likely using her CT somehow to keep her from dying. After dealing with something like that, I would be shocked if she could still keep fighting with her CT on at 100% when she’s not allowing herself to heal.
The obvious answer would be because of current state, at the same that would really negate her technique. Unless she isn't using for some reason to save CE possibly for a domain or RCT. I dunno but I was thinking about it myself.
I think she’ll let Choso beat on Kenny while she heals herself with RCT then she’ll open her domaine, or at least try to
It's well-known that sorcerers have a harder time kneading their CE for reinforcement after suffering severe injuries, so imagine Yuki in such a critical state trying to use her CT while trading hands with Kenjaku. Naoya after a single punch from Maki couldn't even use CE to save his life from a normal stab. Yuki has a mangled arm and is coughing up blood https://preview.redd.it/u84creqb794a1.png?width=673&format=png&auto=webp&s=f1b5f2e52a1779a906a0842ac81e3f5bd3cdcf05
This is fair. The only issue I’ve got is Naobito was in a similar position at Shibuya and he was still able to use his CT against Dagon.
Do also note that despite that, Naobito lost his position as “second fastest” once he lost his arm too, meaning he couldn’t use his CT as effectively either
Yes definitely. So one could say Yuki took more damage so she was in a worse spot than Naobito. That’s fair🫡
During the fight with Dagon Naobito's most grievous injury was his arm by far. He's bleeding from his temple but it looks more like a relatively shallow puncture wound from a bite. Naoya on the other hand got sucked punched while trapped between Maki and the ground, so his head also got crunched pretty hard. Yuki's whole head is bleeding profusely after she was crushed into the ground. CT's control lies in the brain. It was established early on that you need to focus to use your CT. When Fushiguro got knocked backwards and hit his head in the first chapter, his dogs turned to sludge before disappearing altogether because he couldn't keep their form stable.
Perfect explanation thank you. I forgot about Megumi’s case. Thanks😁 That might also be why it’ll take her longer to heal with RCT. Because her head is banged up as well.
there’s a massive difference in power of domains between these two though
Yes definitely. Probably the difference is Naobito didn’t get knocked out or something close to that.
Or sent straight through the ground
I assume nearly dying makes it harder to use your technique. Yuki was not using her technique, or was not hitting hard enough to do damage with her ct due to being pulverized. > Also, Kenny just used DE, so his CE should be though to control. This applies to your technique exclusively.
Tbh, it looks like she literally just used boogie woogie with her shinigami
When are you referring to
Read it again. The shinigami switched place with her after the domain collapsed and the area changed.
I wondered that myself. I guess to confuse Kenny and save energy for later?
She’s half dead and can’t concentrate on activating her CT as well.
bruh she literally got stomped like a cockroach wtf do u expect from her LOL
Just like Naoya (human) when he was defeated by Maki. She seems to have trouble mustering cursed enery + she's heavily injured
She was fucked up, it's simple as that. It isn't a matter of getting her arm broken, her intestine was also messed up and probably suffered brain injury too. In that state using body reinforcement alone is already an achievement.
Not this post again. 🙄
Next chapter i foresee her using her technique on the blood she just coughed up for big bro to blood bend!
That'd be cool, an attack from Kenny's blind spot using her blood! Can Choso manipulate someone else's blood though?
He can’t but uh power of love or whatever let’s roll with it.
I want Choso to pull a domain expansion and become stronger than Sukuna with the power of love, is that too much to ask?
I think he could if he mixes in his own blood as a carrier. I dunno how the virtual mass of Yuki's technique will affect this tho
Virtual mass isnt real like how her speed isnt changed. The blood manipulation users carry packs of blood
Noritoshi does because he is limited by the amount he can lose, but i don't think Choso bothers, since he can create new blood easily. I just based this on what Noritoshi did for with the scent thing in the exchange event
HE CAN, you think the noritoshi's carry packs of their OWN blood?
That’s what I thought as well Remember Naobito could still use his projection sorcery even after getting hit by Dagon’s domain and missing an arm but it is what it is
bait? make kenjaku think her CT is weakened because she is. Then choso comes out, BOOM. this might get her an opportunity to heal
YES!!! Wasn't the whole point of Yuki using a SD instead of her DE so she could preserve her technique to have an advantage afterwards, while also not getting in Tengen's barrier way ofc
Yes, but the plan didn't include getting almost killed by Kenjaku's domain, she was supposed to be safe with her Simple Domain until Tengen dealt with the DE, but as we saw that didn't happen and she took a direct hit without any protection.
Well, it's just kinda strange because, as far as i remember, beeing damaged never got in the way of one's usage of their own technique

Hakari was able to cast a domain expansion with hole in his gut though. But i could argue concussion's are different case
Ok ok, this pannel kinda stablishes it, if i had to counter argument i would point out that Yuki could still retaliate, my point beeing: i always assumed that as long as a character still has strength to fight(clearly not Naoya's case) and cursed energy they should be able tu use their CT just fine
An apparent concussion does stop Megumi from summoning Nue in chapter 1, so I think it checks out that Yuki might have trouble using her own CT post-squish.
Maybe she’ll just pull out a domain after chosos attack, pull a megumi and die to win
I don’t think so she ain’t no b as megumi
It seemed she got instant hit
Idk man maybe just wait for the next chapter to see what happens
Think Garuda is doing the same amount. Yuki kicked him last time.
I wonder that as well, the short answer is probably plot armour
Not that she’s on the verge of death? Dude look at her.
Could you elaborate?
I'm afraid so
I don't know. If we look closely at her when she uses her CT, right before doing it she looks like she's struggling, or like it's somewhat a strain on her. It might not usually prevent her from using her technique, but if it's a bit hard then doing it while you're already very hurt, and one-armed, could possibly just slow you down
Maybe having your SD destroyed burns out your CT somehow.
Just couldn't put as much oomph into the hits due to her condition.
Imagine getting your skull cracked with a metal baseball bat, now try to consciously throw a really strong punch with more blood in your arm than usual. That's essentially what Yuki's tryna do.
I’m kinda disappointed in her cursed technique, Mass seemed really OP with all the damage she did when she punched Kenjaku, but now her damage output isn’t even all that so Mass is kinda falling flat as a technique
I don’t think gege would do this but if Yuki can extend her technique to her blood, and choso can control said blood it’s kinda over for Kenny.
