I'm loving this trio and their dynamics. It's gonna be sad to depart from them in 6 months once the manga ends but the weekly experience will be enjoyable in Geges wild ride

>I'm loving this trio and their dynamics.
The dynamics = explain power techniques and lore.

You bar is too low anon. For now the trio is bland af. Gege sucks at characterization.

Sukuna?
Comparable to an entire alien invasion fleet

>War of the Worlds this year
>Sequel has ALIENS
HMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

wouldn't sukuna need to spend like a trillion years in buddhist hell before he could be reincarnated

>>282103042
I am sure there are multiple ways of reincarnating Sukuna. Either through a corpse part we never heard, or through an offspring, or even his curse spiritual residue. After all, Yuji became a cursed object due to him being bathed in Sukuna's curse energy.

I also think Sukuna reached a form of Nirvana from his time fighting Kozo and co.

>>282103042
time dilation or something, don't worry about it

>>282102999
The bar isnt low, its just 1 chapter and I see what sort of theme Gege is setting up which has me appreciate the dynamic between characters. Learn to not be so surface level

So when are we getting some beefcakes?

>>282102817 (OP)
>Girl = Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah
>Boy = ...
>Alien = huh?

Yeah, great dynamics. Chainsaw Man Pt. 2 will have a rival, finally.

>>282102817 (OP)
The truth is Jujutsu Kaisen's events feel like they are better once they're viewed in the perspective that they happened in the past. It gives JJK the mythicality it requires. So a short sequel may have been necessary, and I like that no one even is as powerful as prime Yuji here, so it's not that crazy. However, it shouldn't have been Yuta's grandsons (fuck you Gege), and the boy should have had 10S to make up for Megumi imo. That girl's technique doesn't seem interesting too.
>>282103001
had to catch Gojo in a brief moment where let he his guard down

>Jujutsu Kaisen + aliens

Why?

>>282103101
>It hurts we can't understand each other
Great, more newtype bullshit.

Manki could only be loved by the lover himself, Yuta.

>>282103165
I dont think we seen the girls technique yet, she just used normal martial arts powered by cursed energy

>>282102817 (OP)
Extremely bold of you to think this is lasting 6 months. Togashi is gonna replace his slot again in 2-3.

>>282103322
I remember when there was an ongoing joke that JJK was axed to make way for HxH coming back.

>>282102817 (OP)
Am I the first to say it? The face thing is incredibly ugly design.

>>282102817 (OP)
Why aliens? They could make a demon dimensional invasion or something that would for the universe better, this is like aliens appeared in YYH

It's a good call on Gege to make sorcerers weaker in this so we don't immediately shit on the legacy of JJK or fall into powercreep hell

why aliens? is it becasue naruto had aliens?

>>282103165
>the boy should have had 10S to make up for Megumi imo.
Quite a shame how under utilized 10s is.
Bumgumi only ever really utilized half of them since he only tamed 6 of the 10s and got 1.5 of them killed in the first 2 volumes.
Not to mention all the cool combos he could have gotten like when he fused frogs with Nue without having to do the totality thing.
I actually quite liked the technique.

>>282103042
he made a binding bow to not have to go through that, trust the plan

>>282103452
I would agree, but I like none of the powersets from what I have seen so far.

>>282103042
Kozou used up all the good karma he build up over his life to bail grunkuna out of hell.

>>282103442
Hiei gets confused by alien in the end of YYH, I think togashi even made a short manga about aliens.
One of the things I liked about JJK was that is a close to my idea of a YYH sequel where the descendants of the main cast would study in a supernatural school where was Genkai home

>>282103498
>and got 1.5 of them killed in the first 2 volumes.
honestly that was a pointless long term nerf for the shadows for the sake of cheap LE CONSEQUENCES
it just discourages experimentation and forces the user to be a bitch playing it as safe as humanly possible

>>282103547
i hate this is likely what gaygay is gonna do when he already set up the fact twins are considered the same person by the laws of the JJK universe, so it wouldn't even be that surprising or that much of an asspull

>>282102817 (OP)
If you think about it, Gege probably wrote this manga because this was finally his chance to do a JJK story without the school (which was mandated by his editor).

>>282103377
Well it's an eyepatch, so it makes sense. If anything, I am curious to see how his hair looks when it is down. I wonder if he will be sexy. He gives me Whis vibes if I am to be completely honest.

COG FLASH

>>282103622
I don't see the point since the school was never relevant outside of the kyoto event.

>>282103622
School in JJK was more of a place to reunite sorcery community.

>>282103565
This is legit why aliums in JJK don't bother me nearly as much as Naruto -> Boruto.

>>282103672
The framing of the manga is still "high schoolers with super powers have to go and save the world while coming of age" while Modulo jumps straight into "sorcerer agents investigating criminal fuckery and make first contact with aliens".

>>282102884
So Yuka is thenew Yuto and her brother is the new Maki? Wani could have done the same for Kimetsu with the next generation

>>282102817 (OP)
>rape dungeons vindicated
>monkey genocide vindicated
chapter 1 btw

To be honest the manga reminds me more of Batman Beyond than Boruto.

>>282103566
>forces the user to be a bitch playing it as safe as humanly possible
Perfect for Megumi, in that case.

>>282102884
Now that an anon pointed it out, I can't unsee it.
She really is basically a 90s fighting game femoid, the type that is destined to be ryonabait and a perpetual jobber.

>>282103731
>aliums don't bother you in JJK, because another author messed around with the concept in a completely unrelated work

>>282103835
>Aliums don't bother me in JJK at the moment, because instead of trying to be DBZ but bad, it's aesthetically something far weirder and more fucked up
Correct

>>282103831
The edgy 90s feels is all over JJK dna

GEGE NEEDS TO GO TO FUCKING THERAPY
YOU LIKELY ALREADY MAKE MORE MONEY IN A WEEK THAN YOUR ONII-SAMA DOES IN A FUCKING YEAR, GET OVER THE INFERIORITY COMPLEX BITCH

Maru and Yuka will likely have a hard time to beat Yuji and Nobara in terms of likability and character

But we can all say Tsurugi is 100% likely to be better than Megumi. It's really not a high bar to achieve considering how he ended up being

>>282104039
beating nobara in that category is frankly not hard, she's a generic girlboss

Cursed Child Arc
Fearsome Womb Arc
Vs. Mahito Arc
Kyoto Goodwill Event Arc

Shinjuku Showdown Arc

>>282103222
Everyone loves Maki

>>282104039
Megumi wasn't really meant to be a strong cool character to begin with if you bother to look at the early chapters and that was during the time the editor characters weren't royally screwed over
Tsurugi will definitely be cooler. He only has HR so no fancy super rare technique for everyone to expect him to do great things

>>282104072
Do you think the anime will heavily expand upon Shinjuku Showdown? The arc is only long enough to last 14 episodes, compared to the previous seasons being around 23 eps.

>>282104093
I liked her when she didn't look like a man.

>>282104107
>Megumi wasn't really meant to be a strong cool character to begin
one of his introductory flashbacks before he unlocks chimera shadow garden is him beating the shit out of the school jocks

>>282104126
You're forgetting before Death Painting. Megumi lost ALL of his fights. He only got his first real win on the fifth arc

>>282104113
When she looked like a nerd? (false advertising)

>>282104126
First chapter has Megumi jobbing to a second grade cursed and already resorting to Mahoraga. He was not meant to be the generic cool strong guy to begin with

You were all baited because of his design

>>282103042
Sukuna has not done a single wrong thing ever so they just let him walk on through.

>>282104138
>>282104162
>>You're forgetting before Death Painting. Megumi lost ALL of his fights.
all two or so of them? one against a special grade he was literally sent to die to in order to get yuji killed and one against THE sukuna?
youre the one that doesnt get the context anon, he did show he could be a badass by not instantly fucking dying against what was portrayed as THE final boss at that point in the story
that is exactly why people are so mad about wasted potential to the point of making potential man memes to this day

>>282103442
I think we're getting some new age inspired stuff on top of the established buddhist themes (think classic pleiadians and crystal ayys instead of dragon ball or naruto ayys), presumably they're all very spiritually powerful. Alternatively, they're not real aliens but decedents of people from earth who ascended into space and now are back to check in

>>282102817 (OP)
Gege needs tô make the aliens tô be the ancient gods of earth or something like that

>>282104176
Forgetting Todo and Hanami? And it's not like he was doing better against fucking Kamo. He was high diffing the finger bearer while Nobara took on a Death Painting

Okay but why are the aliens refugees, what the fuck happened for them to go
>hey can we bum on this planet for a bit please?

>>282103042
>>282104168
Fun fact, he technically objectively did nothing wrong by traditional buddhist beliefs.
Basically his only "sin" by buddhist standards was thinking he was eternal and unchanging, which ultimately led to his downfall and he learned to get over with once he fucking died to the kozo, so the punishment was already administered at the cost of his life.
>B-b-b-but he killed people!
Technically not a sin, that's a modern "buddhist" thing.

>>282104207
They’ll be a version or equivalent of Sukuna on every planet, just watch

>>282102817 (OP)
It’s going to be funny when this ends up being better than JJK

>>282104201
>Forgetting Todo and Hanami?
Pretty sure that was after the finger bearer because basically after that fight with todo they jump straight into the competition into the fight with hanami.

>>282104193
>Alternatively, they're not real aliens but decedents of people from earth who ascended into space

And japs are the closest humans tô this evolved beings, right

>>282104232
Eh, more likely that there's an alien analog of Kenjaku in that they created a Merger event that fucked up the planet who now has a world-eater curse forcing everyone to flee or die.

>>282104207
I think the idea is that Cursed Energy/Sorcery works like the Force in that various species across the universe each has their own subrace that can wield it or at least have their own version/understanding of it. So the Sumurians are their planets' counterpart to Earth's Japanese, and this Modulo is like two worldviews about Sorcery colliding with each other.

>>282104260
LOL this is almost the plot of Horizon 2

>>282104107
>>282104126
I get the narrative purpose. Dude never intended to get strong but the average shonen fan wouldn't pick up on that. But at the very least, people expected him to reach completed domain but that never happened

If he ended up being potential man because gege wanted him to be potential man, that left a sour taste on everyone

>>282103790
Yuji was basically Terry already but instead of injecting Batman's dna into someones balls for the perfect son to become the next Batman, he instead was born from Sukuna's finger to be the perfect Sukuna clone.

>>282104093
No one loves Maki more than Mai

>>282102817 (OP)
Maybe they plan it to be 3 volume story but are ready to make it a proper big series if there will be good response.

what does modulo mean

>>282104362
I don't think so, I got the impression that this would be a limited series so that Gege wouldn't be on life support like he was during the OG manga's run.

>>282104333
>Dude never intended to get strong but
But this is a shounen manga, characters either get strong or get NPCd.
If gaygay didn't want to deliver what shounen fans want then he shouldn't even be writing for this magazine in the first place.
>But that's le hecking subversive!
I have kike culture fatigue.

>>282104362
>I got one more volume in me!
>Gege said, after looking for a third house to buy

>>282104383
this isn't even drawn by gege, some other sucker that draws better than the gaycat is on sweatshop duty

>>282104126
Megumi's character is literally "I want a happy life for my sister, fuck being the best." This is the major difference between Sukuna and everyone else; he was one of the fewer people that had the requisite talent to be the strongest, and had the right state of mind to lean into it, and still ended up unhappy with what it got him.

>>282104354
sisterly love

>>282104400
>I want a shonen story where I can predict everything that can happen to the characters
This is what you're saying. Japan didn't stop loving Megumi even when he became a total disappointment when it came to shonen tropes.

>>282104438
>unironically defending subversive kike culture
legitimately disgusting
may as well just speak like a shitskin and start pissing yourself over "aura" if you're gonna do this

>>282104438
Is the joke that by following kike culture undermining the story became extremely predictable or something? Because even on the tail end of the final raid fight people basically predicted the entire plot beat by beat.
I think the only thing people didn't predict was the merger meaning jack shit because gege just simply gave up before it mattered.

>>282104039
>But we can all say Tsurugi is 100% likely to be better than Megumi. It's really not a high bar to achieve considering how he ended up being
As long as he didn't immediately give up if his sister is in trouble, but then again

Like you said, it's not a high bar. People's enjoyment over Megumi is so low after the ending that anyone can be better than him

>>282104468
>complaining about "aura" while also complaining about a character not actually being a battle autist

>>282104560
you already have the reading comprehension of a nigger at least, you only need the rest of the ape behavior

>>282103165
>the boy should have had 10S to make up for Megumi
The child of a Zenin reject and a Gojo clan mutt could never inherit the 10s. Only a direct descendant of Megumi is worthy of the pinnacle of Zenin sorcery.

Actually, after Death Painting. Megumi was doing a good job for Shibuya, Perfect Preparation, and CG.
He only got cheapshotted by that Jojo Siwa cosplayer but even then, that was excused because he just fought a disaster curse and fucking Toji so he had no more energy to fight
He gave up conveniently after Tsumiki got killed, the very person he dedicated his life to.

>>282104597
It's so fucking over for the 10s then, megumi is the kind of cuck that would happily raise the brown son of his wife to be a better man.

>>282104621
You're forgetting Hana simps over his useless ass. She's getting his babies no matter what

>>282104597
>The child of a Zenin reject could never inherit the 10s.
Megumi is the child of a Zenin reject. I support the Maki Yuta slander however and agree that Megumi is GOAT

>>282104618
Now that I remember. At least megumi got a good final fight before he got fridged by Sukuna

Nobara got two fights in Shibuya and she got absolutely bitched before she was put in limbo.

>>282104646
>You're forgetting Hana
I legitimately did, she's barely even a character.

>>282104653
Toji is the one who left it all behind
Maki is the one who was left behind by all

>>282104621
Not when this girl exists.

>>282104354
i miss mai

Is Yuji really gonna mate with Yuko of all people? Their kid won't really inherit anything good from either of them

Tsurugi isn't really the Megumi. He is the resident HR freak. Just wait for someone to be introduced with a super ultra rare technique and was said to be a prodigy. Only then, you can say that's the megumi equivalent

>>282104752
I wish it'd be Nobara. Imagine three kids, a girl with Shrine, a boy with Blood Manipulation (Choso lookalike), and one with Resonance.

>>282104783
Tsumiki, Megumi's not a woman...

>>282104783
yorozu probably would've been down too

>>282104878
Well, looks close enough to Sukuna, only without the freaky stuff

What are the chances that gaygay gets pressured into making it a full manga?

>>282104039
My takeaway is that
>Maru: Lacks the overall charm Yuji has but has a niche to fulfill on his own.
>Yuka: Nobara but she feels like she's actually important to the plot
>Tsurugi: Already has a better mindset than Megumi but will likely be forgettable since he won't be making stupid choices like not reaching his potential or trying to kill himself

>>282104913
>Yuka: Nobara
just because she's the girl? they dont seem that similar personality-wise

>>282104929
Gege admitted he got Kugisaki and Itadori vibes from this chapter. Maru is Yuji and Yuka is Nobara

This is absolute dogshit

>>282104929
>they dont seem that similar personality-wise
You might be autistic.

i do like the idea of seeing the weirdness and traditions of jujutsu society from an alien's perspective. also we might finally get some insight on the gojo clan

>>282104913
Tsurugi has no fujobait so far. Maru doesn't exude the same shipping vibes Yuji and Gojo have. It carried Megumi to the finish line despite his character.
Unless we're getting his boyfriend in the second chapter.

>>282103566
Pretty much. Even worse, since if they want to tame Mahogany, they'll need all the Shadows ideally. Having even one Shadow die probably bars all 10s sisters from trying to tame him unless the user himself is just busted.

>>282105025
From what little we've seen from the Gojo clan, they don't seem to be that interesting. Honestly, the whole clan thing is pretty boring by design, it's a rigid culture ruled by tradition and appearances.

>>282104913
Tsurugi will be the most popular for the sequel but only because they wanted to cope he's what Megumi should've been.

>>282104913
>>Maru: Lacks the overall charm Yuji has but has a niche to fulfill on his own.
Maru feels like a more feminine and naive Gojo which I like. So this is a Yuta, Toji, Gojo team?

>>282104684
Maki left behind her feminity. She still had Yuta though, he's the reward for all her suffering.

>>282102817 (OP)
I'm gonna say it. Hakari was a scrub. His only good showing was against Kashimo who was easily one-shotted by Sukuna.

Hakari ain't shit.

When's the next chapter? Must be soon because of the delay of the first chapter.

>>282105219
The usual day. It's a weekly series despite going for six months

>>282105128
Yuka doesnt remind me of Yuta, she's a bit meaner than he was. She's actually a bit like Maki.

>>282105293
I don't see much of Yuta in either of them actually. Could just be because they're brats. But they act more like Zenin than anything else.

>>282105152
There's a reason why he's not included in this shot

>>282105345
Megumichads, our HERO is a LEGEND

>>282105345
Why is Nobara even there for? At least megumi was part of the culling games

The artstyle alone gives the characters so much more life and personality than in JJK1

>>282105362
technically speaking she did deliver what would become the killing blow on sukuna

>>282105362
She clutched up and gave Yuki enough chance to BF Sukuna to death. She's the only who could have done it because of her curse technique, so of course she gets a mention.

>>282105345
Hakarisisters.....

>>282105393
Gay gay's art had plenty of personality. I think the new guy's art is perhaps a little too cutesy. We'll see when the eventual edge chapter drops.

>>282105345
Is that Maki infront of Gojo?

>>282105345
I mean
>The only opponent he beat was Kashimo who was then get waffled by Sukuna in just a single chapter
>Can't even kill Uraume despite having regen

>>282105443
Actually it's Kirara

>>282104107

>He only has a HR

He used simple style though. I think he doesn't have a HR. In fact, he doesn't have anything. That's why they gave him the ring, because Miwa's faulty genes must have snuck into the Gojo family tree

>>282105345
>History revisionist included both Megumi and Nobara despite doing jack all
I know Hana was the one who did the revision for Megumi but who vouched for Nobara?

>>282105345
In their defense. these six at least did something to final Sukuna. Hakari was too busy dealing but also failing against Uraume

>>282105600
>because Miwa's faulty genes must have snuck into the Gojo family tree

What are you implying anon?

>>282105609
Yuji probably vouched for the both of them actually

>>282105609
Gakuganji and Utahime

>>282105393
It’s the most basic off the shelf forgettable style

they have sex, incest route soon

>>282105837
ignorant ahh post

>>282105842
The duo reminds me of Mob and Ritsu.

>>282105362
Nobara was surprisingly one of the only people in the final showdown with Sukuna who wasn't a total bum and did actually contribute to his defeat. Todo probably deserves to be there over Maki all things considered.

>>282105846
>ahh
Just say ass, stop speaking like a fucking shitskin ape.

>>282105875
look at this goofy ahh boy

>>282105889
Why are you so afraid of swearing

>>282105897
gooby dooby ahh

>>282105897
NTA but you're not with the times gramps. Anyways, the art style is okay, but I prefer Gege's

>>282105897
zoomies got raised by controlled newspeak on "content platforms" please understand
they are afraid of saying any no-no words that would get them banned, which is why you get shit like them saying "unalived" instead of suicide

>>282105905
>>282105911
Retarded nigger faggots

>>282105940
bluddy is not a happy camper :skull:

>>282105915
They are so fucking pathetic, conditioned so much they even hols on from swearing in a page where everyone says nigger

>>282105609
Yuji vouched for both of them. To be fair. He knows Megumi did something in CG which was the point of the text. While Nobara dealt with Sukuna

>>282105940
That's not very cash money of you gramps.

>>282105609
>>282105954
Reading the in-universe reports and textbooks for that entire fight honestly sounds funnier and more interesting than the actual fight.
Imagine the levels of historical revisionism to not make bumgumi look like an incompetent moron.
Imagine the mental gymnastics done to pretend nobara did jack shit.
Imagine the borderline religious cult praise gojo and to a lesser extent yuta would get.

>>282105864
ui ui as well

Hana wrote the history books

I want Yuka to have the ring but it is a perfect match for Tsurugi, but can a Heavenly Restriction user even use it?
Do they even know what it does?

>>282106080
what if it doesnt do anything and just has sentimental value

>>282106080
There is honestly no reason for the designated cursed tool user not to have the family cursed tool.
Yuka should just shut the fuck up and Tsurugi needs to stop being such a faggot about it.

Maru is Sukuna

>>282106101
Yuka should have it for the sentimental value alone. Nothing can beat that.

>>282103165
>had to catch Gojo in a brief moment where let he his guard down
And Gojo had to attack Sukuna first using utahime and the old man first and bring and army of sorcerers. It's not his fault Gojo is just bad at winning

>>282106019
Considering the only person who saw his depressed state in Shinjuku was Yuji. Everyone else assumed he was fighting back and Yuji is a sweetheart so he can't say anything bad.

>>282103165
>had to catch Gojo in a brief moment where let he his guard down
All I'm hearing is that RETARDjo got outplayed by SMARTkuna the wise.

God I miss Nobara.
Bring her back again Gege.

>>282106138
Good point. If it ever got out that Megumi could possibly have ended the fight much sooner, he'd probably be crucified. Maki would probably pummel him to death.

>>282106138
He did tank UVs and Hollow Purples. History revisionist will say he has the highest defense.

>>282103195
The DBZ special. Gaygay ripped off everyone else, now it's Toriyama's dead corpse's turn.

>>282103965
>>282106113
Modulo? A ROMANCE between GEGE and SUKUNA

>>282104878
Yoruzu would definitely pull a kenjaku
>well if I cant fuck sukuna fucking his family is the next best thing

>>282103165
What shitty excuse is this? Why should someone wait for some retarded to focus? It's a FIGHT, it's your own fault if you low your guard

>>282106138
Huh, that actually makes sense. Yuji was truly the one friend Megumi was glad to have because had it been everyone else. They would've blamed him for everything.

>>282106138
somehow you also made me remember thanks to all the shenanigans megumi ended up with a perfectly tamed mahoraga usable through CSG, just that alone likely made him a special grade without much effort
>domain expansion
>WITH THIS TREASURE
>win
the goddamn bum ended up getting away with it in the end

>>282106189
That was merely a hello and a love tap. If Gojo had been serious about winning no matter what, he wouldn't have hesitated to do underhanded himself as well. Or would the Sukubabys need a formal invitation to fight as well?

>>282106169
>Maki would probably pummel him to death.
Looks like someone didn't read. She said it outright Megumi had nothing to apologize for. If Yuji and Yuta didn't get angry at Megumi for indirectly killing Choso and Gojo. Nobody else would

>>282106255
They knew about Megumi bitching out at first? I honestly forgot

>>282106266
>They knew about Megumi bitching out at first? I honestly forgot
Not that. Maki and Kusakabe said Megumi had nothing to apologize for simply getting possessed by Sukuna. Only Yuji knew about him giving up but he didn't tell that for good reasons.

>>282103965
KEK when you think about it this is true as fuck, Gege is basically settled for life (and he would be even more rich if he approves some shitty LN about Gojorino and Getorino), meanwhile his brother must wageslave
Also just build your own gym and get fit retard

>>282104953
Nobara would'nt have cried because she's weaker than her big brother. She'd challenge him and get her ass kicked times after times while talking shit constantly.

GILFbara

>>282106254
Why are you excusing a sneak attack buffed with others help? And ignoring the part that he had to fight other sorcerers after that? Sukuna even tried to bring a special curse with him to torture the kids, he was never a saint but you gojosisters always spared him until he killed your gojobaby

>>282106266
They knew about him getting possessed. It's the same mentality for Itadori

But funny enough, Megumi got away with it simply because him getting possessed is what led to Sukuna getting defeated. But to be fair, he only killed like what? 4 people at max? Yujikuna killed many civilians in Shibuya. Meguna killed way less people and they were all sorcerers. Not normal people

>>282106254
Should Gojobaby need Sukuna saying "hey I'm making a special attack to hit you"

>>282102817 (OP)
gege exposing herself as mathlet once again
gege please, the symbol for modulo is 'mod' not 三
the tribar symbol is like equal sign

Where can I read this?

>>282106316
If Sukuna had managed to get himself kill by that, then he had no business calling himself the king of curses, simples as. Gojo was merely paying his respects.
Also, not Gojo's problem that Sukubaby had a chip on his shoulder about making friends. Maybe he should try not being a bitch?

>>282106320
>4 people at max?
Ryu, Kashimo, Gojo, and Choso?
I guess only losing Gojo was a true loss since Choso is still technically an enemy. But even then, the party just did not care. They were just talking how they could've done something else for the fight instead of acknowledging Gojo just died.

>>282106333
i still find it funnier if the 三 means JJK3 modulo skipping JJK2

But it's not like Ryu and Kashimo were any important

>>282102817 (OP)
The action feels strangely cut down.
I assume the drafts are not purely from Gege and they do some back-and-forth adjustments on it, because some of the depictions of movement feel more in line with Cipher Academy than JJK.
I think this is a detriment, the clear sequencing I've come to expect is missing now. There are several places where I'd want an intermediate small panel at least, but often it just skips right to the big moment.

>>282106362
I know, but the fact that it was a school was never relevant outside of the kyoto arc.
Yuju could have just been recruited to work as an investigator and nothing would changed outside of the kyoto event.

>>282106354

the wsj editards really need to lay off the kike culture kool aid honestly, all the best selling manga either have irrelevant school settings or don't have them at all, to the point i really wonder the fuck are they trying to copy, bleach (irrelevant past the intro)? MHA (irrelevant past the first arc)?

>>282102817 (OP)

also feels like saiyan race finding out there are humans on earth having similar powers to them

>>282104126
Anon, that scene comes around chapter 50, in a flashback, and ends with Megumi thinking about with a childish fool he was at the time.
>>282104249
Megumi only fought against a finger bearer in Origins of Obedience, which was after Goodwill.

>>282104126
That wasn't meant to be a powerscaling thing. I don't know how you came to that conclusion. And Death Painting was in the fifth arc.

>>282103082
>>282104229
Do you fags really want Sukuna to show up for a single brief moment from the undertheworld to lend his nakama a hand and land the final hit on the enemy like Atem in that yugioh movie

>>282106447
human school is not important for bleach story, shinigami school is important for all captains and their lieutenants, it's where they learnt kido
ninja school is important in narutoverse, it's where they learnt basic jutsu

>>282103042
time doesn't have to flow equally in hell and on earth

>>282106474
Yuki offered to let live inside of him at the end, he didn't actually get to save Sukuna's soul. Sukina died without doing anything to atone for his carnage.

So if it's going for three volumes, can it even form a coherent impactful story in just about 20 chapters or so? Gege's boner for long stories might seep in and might feel underwhelming

>>282106478
That sounds amazing now that you mention it, yes.
Gege already, as the zoomniggers addicted to goytropes say, "jumped the shark" so may as well ride that bitch to the sunset in style at this point.

yes

>>282106500
i reject your boring explanation and substitute it with my own
this is JJK3
cope and fucking seethe

>>282106492
JJK's first twenty chapters were compelling enough and that was with everyone but Gojo/Sukuna being super weak

>>282106492
six months plus four chapters per month would mean 24 chapters. You can fit one arc in here

>>282106501
Look it's okay for you to dislike those characters but your problem is that you are trying to make Gege make Solo Leveling Gojo version and that sounds boring as fuck, it sounds better in your heads. Let gege do whatever he wants and just go to ao3 to read Gojo fics where he is the very best and characters only exists to suck his cock

>>282106492
Look how much it raped the competition with barely any marketing. If it does well it may become a long manga and gege doesn't even need to draw. They can even make jjk4, 5 etc in short bursts if they want to

>>282106549
Why couldn't we get 100 chapters of Gojo plappig Utahime? Is that too much to ask from this cruel world?

>>282106565

Gege is not telling you anything like that.
Nowhere in the manga does "JJK 3" appear, that's something the retarded leaker made up which, as usual, turned out to be erroneous.

>>282106500
I know, I tried to post the latter but got removed by 4chan for being a unicode character
besides both symbols look similar enough

I sincerely hope that indian faggot m*a gets his internet cut off.

>>282106447
I have no idea why fans keep saying editors saved JJK when all their ideas have been either useless or horrible. Gege made his own changes when things weren't good enough so it's not like he was a tasteless retard like Kishimoto, like when he made a first draft for JJK with Megumi as the MC and he found it boring himself so he changed things himself without seeing an editor first. What did editors bring though?
>pointless school setting
>tried to change Rika into Nobunaga's ghost which would have made JJK0 way more boring and Yuta way, way worse
>added Nobara just because muh team 7 but she was irrelevant from the start even though she's kinda fun
>trying to simplify things here and there for kids who only care about fight scenes and not about the story at all, probably the reason why Gege had to shove info about simple domains in one of the last chapters at the last second instead of making it happen earlier and more naturally
>added that one irrelevant chapter about the literal who from Yuji's middle school instead of something more interesting
>mandatory shitty, boring tournament arc that's just a terrible excuse to introduce more characters, again it would have worked better if the setting was a secret society in which everyone are coworkers. It's so bad that there are people out here who think Nanami might as well be a teacher instead of Yuji's older coworker who's showing him the ropes

>gege self inserting as the girl

>>282106362
this is...not true at all, a lot of sorcerers are outside of the school system, which is why the members of the zen'in clan were special grade 1 instead of grade 1, because they had grade capabilities while being outisde of the school system.
most sorcerers born and raised in the 3 big clans existed outside of the school system.

>Not even confirming if he's alive or dead in the chapter
>Megumi died to a grade 3 curse, aliens can do complete domain before him, a new 10S user is already better than him

>>282106836
prime megumi is most likely gojo level just like yuji, yuta, hakari or maki

>>282106836
>How does one live as a Megumi fan?
through literal fanfics

>>282106836
Maybe if Gege didn't make him into a complete joke in the original manga then people would be happy to see Megumi again.

>>282102817 (OP)
>Maki jobbed till the very end
Sigh

>>282106492
>Gege's boner for long stories
The guy was basically speedrunning the end of JJK after the Shibuya Arc

>>282106863
the only character who is gojo level is gojo, but i believe yuta would have gotten strong enough to defeat sukuna

>Gege gave the pissy whiny author self-insert femoid a claws CT.
What are the implications of this?

>>282106836
>Literally spends the entire final arc crying and depressed
>Ends without taming the rest of his shadows and no complete domain
Even if you do get the point of his character but the fact he was the supposed deuteragonist? I don't hate him but this is on Gege for not making him feel like he's actually strong.

>>282106836
He botched the one and only chance for him to redeem his failures in Shinjuku. He's not getting redeemed for Mojuro no matter what damage control Gege try to do

>>282106909
>i believe yuta would have gotten strong enough to defeat sukuna
No way. At least not the Sukuna that had already fought Yuta, since he knows his CT and domain. The closest Yuta got was by body snatching Gojo's corpse against an already weakend Sukuna. He would need some serious asspulls to get a win against Sukuna.

>>282106913
She's catty

Is this the Shaman King artist? It looks very similar.

Wait, is Tsurugi a Heavenly Restriction user like Toji/Maki? This was implied when the barrier let him through while leaving his swords, but later in the chapter he uses new shadow style, wouldn't you need cursed energy to do that?

>>282106979
We know that characters can be far stronger as adults than they are as teenagers though. Gojo and Geto were far stronger as adults than the teenagers we see them as in Hidden Inventory

>>282106836
Gege just gave up on him. That's all. You saw the promotional material. It's always Gojo Yuji and Yuta. Megumi is casted off completely.

His concept is good and he could've stayed like a depressed faggot but Gege absolutely refuses to make him feel like he matter in the story. I'm not saying he should be Gojo tier but people forget that this is a battle series. Megumi needs to be stronger for him to survive. Not getting weaker and not catching up. Him not rising up to the opportunity to help him get out of his depressed state was the final nail in the coffin. Because that's not a powerscaling agenda, it's also very retarded on his part

>>282106999
He has some CE, like Maki before Mai died.

>>282107009
They become stronger because they developed as people, and so their sorcery developed as well. Likewise, Gojo stagnated, meanwhile Sukuna a continued to evolve even during their bout. All this is to say, becoming stronger isn't a given. Yuta seemingly went along with the clan nonsense that caused so much to Maki and Gojo, instead of abolishing it outright. That to me makes it sound like he just settled down after Sukuna, hardly the characteristics of someone who becomes stronger.

>>282107056
>there's nobody stronger than him threatening the world after sukuna died
>therefore there's no reason to get even stronger either
wow sherlock, do you want to share any other grand revelations?

>>282107026
There's a saying

Weak characters can be well liked if they impacted the story in a good way
Bland characters can be well liked if they're strong and bring good fights
But both weak and bland characters who made the situation worse because of their own inactions will be hated forever

Megumi is in the third category

Did something happen between the end of JJK and this?

>>282107056
Abolishing things outright doesn't solve anything. Clan system exists for a reason. And once the self-principled guy disappears, the rest of the clan go back to acting like tribal animals. I'm not a Yuta fan, but this doesn't say anything about his strength or anything. IMO, Yuta is probably the only character who can surpass Sukuna, and the guy saw both Gojo and Sukuna and even swapped bodies with Gojo. There is no way that kind of external observation doesn't make him work hard to be powerful.

>>282107071
>There's a saying
That's not a saying. Nobody says that.
>Megumi is in the third category
Nobody hates Megumi.

>>282107081
Rika had to sit in the cuckqueen chair and watch Maki drain Yuta's balls thousands of times

>>282107070
Are you the same anon that claimed he would eventually get strong enough to beat Sukuna? That's what stared this conversation, I'm saying Yuta doesn't have what it takes.

>>282107097
I can deduce that much, but people are talking about Sukuna dying and other shit I don't know about. I thought Sukuna was still alive when JJK ended.

>>282107095
Why do you think JJK social media are all collectively mocking Megumi for dying to a grade 3 curse, even though we don't know his canon fate yet?

>>282107095
Tell me. What kind of mental gymnastics you think why he couldn't finally fight back the moment Yuji entered his soul for Yuta's domain? He was trapped there for one month
This isn't about agenda, that was a retarded move that made the fight harder for everyone.

>>282105864

Yeah, ranking people it goes something like

>Carried the others
Gojo, Higaruma, Yuji, Ui Ui

>Clutch
Todo, Nobara, Bloodbro

>Rank and file
The others

Anchor
>Megumi jfc

>>282107071
>literally went through the CG which made the souls of the LONG dead come back
>by then already saw his fucking dad rise from hell to fucking kick his ass for seemingly no reason (even if he didn't knew he was dead specifically because of gojo)
>witnessed sukuna basically making the laws of the universe his bitch through binding bows and 10s
even without knowing the full context of yuta and rika, by this point it shouldn't have been that far fetched for him to go full schizo "I WILL BRING HER BACK" through the merger or other means, which mind you was one of the reasons people expected the actual final boss after sukuna being megumi gone full evil
yet he just bent over like a bitch and waited for death

>>282107098
No he's not, I am that anon (>>282107091). I also believe Gojo is #1

>>282107107
One of his fingers still exists, but the end of JJk clearly shows Sukuna accepting his death and his soul moving onto the afterlife with Uraume

>>282107097
Rika the cuckquean of curses
>>282107132
He walked the south so he'll reincarnate into a different person probably.

>>282107132
He said he will try a different path next time so he is 100% reincarnating

Even without the Yuta domain controversy. Megumi never recovered after Potential Man. That one who made that image will go down in history for being entirely responsible for all the hate he gets. Made even worse because all of that is still true.

>>282107091
Gojo clearly thought differently since his intention was to abolish the clans. He just didn't do it through violent means because he correctely noted that wouldn't change the underlying ideology. And what reasons is there for clans to exist? They're self serving more than anything. The one really keeping things in order was Tengen, and she's gone. That was the perfect opportunity for Yuta to follow Gojo's wishes to end the clan system but he didn't.
Regarding strength, in the Jujutsu world, conviction can directly correlate with strength. It's the only thing that allowed Yuji to best Sukuna, because he was clearly his inferior in everything else. Yita may have the potential, but I doubt he has the I'll to capitalize on it.

Now maybe I'm assuming too much from just a first chapter, but already we can see clan nonsense is interfering with his grandkids lives. It's not a good look for Yuta or Maki for that matter.

>>282107145
I hated how peaceful Sukuna's redemption was. The guy selfishly causes problems for fun, doesn't invent anything for CE (Kenjaku is the one who invented open domain). The only useful thing he did in the narrative is make Yuji powerful. He should have suffered far more imo

>>282107071
Megumi is not bland, he's just not the kind of character you prefer.

>>282107149
Megumi is still pretty popular outside of here and reddit.

Let's be honest at least half of you faggots frequent/jujutsufolk/

>>282107149
Now that I think about it. It's likely coming from an angry Gojo fan who is still mad as shit Megumi did nothing during the entire Sukuna vs Gojo battle.

>>282107186
Gojo sissies were the ones fantasizing about Gojo teaching Sukuna about love, suddenly Sukuna wasn't a brutal murderer there kek, it's not like they hate Sukuna's redemption, they hate Gojo not being the one redeeming Sukuna

>>282107162
It's true that clans were shown to be mostly useless in JJK, but Gojo is slightly on the optimist side imo. Without a clan, someone like Gojo can't exist since using Limitless on the same level as he does probably requires extensive use of documentation by its previous users. Plus, his protection. He said he was thought anti domain techniques in childhood, so you just know the dude was intensely trained from childhood.

>>282107081
Have you read the epilogue, Sakuna became a litearlly faggot
https://stellarsaber.pro/jujutsu-kaisen-271-5-epilogue/

Do you think Yuta ever told Yuka about that time he French kissed a giant cockroach?

Speaking of gojo, a weird benefit of jjk3 now that gojo is gone is that the gojeets are also gone.
I didn't notice until now but in the last 2 days of modulo threads I have gotten more in depth jjk discussion than in the last 2 fucking years of threads.

>>282107186
Okay but why DIDN'T he do anything? It's weird considering he's know Gojo the longest out of Yuji and Nobara. It almost makes one think he didn't at all care for Gojo.

>>282107175
Look. I'm aware of his situation. It's just fucking embarrassing for a battle character for him to literally not fight at all in the FINAL ARC

Imagine Zoro from One Piece getting lost in Laugh Tale without ever swinging his swords because Kuina's ghost came back to haunt him. That's Megumi.

>>282107204
Their relationship is established before the epilogue. Uraume is the only person Sukuna ever shows any warmth or affection towards in the story

>>282107186
Because it was likely from a Gojo fan because Potential Man started in 2023.

>>282107214
Gege must have hated Sasuke. That's the only explanation. I would have brought back Uraume as a Vengeful Cursed Spirit, and have Megumi take care of her using Shadow Shrine and 10S and completed Shadow Chimera Garden. My biggest gripe with Gege is that he treats villains too respectfully.

>>282107204
no i stopped reading when everybody stopped punching each other

>>282107232
He was forced by his publishers to make his own version of team 7 in JJK, which he always publicly complained about since he wanted Yuta to be the main character from the start. But yeah, he still disrespects Megumi way more than he does Yuji and Nobara, and he literally wrote Nobara out of half the manga

>>282107214
That comparison is pretty telling, because Zoro basically has no character at this point other than wanting to be strong.
In comparison, Megumi as a character was never focused on strength, only as a means to an end, and was always more compared with who deserved to live, to be saved, to be happy. It's not unnatural that his story evolves in a different direction than "more big shounen fights".

>>282107214
Alternatively, Sasuke being trapped in Infinite Tsukuyomi and refusing to fight back because Reanimated Itachi said so.

>>282107254
Imagine if Megumi was Yuta's son how much better treatment he would have got

>>282106432

I like the artstyle, it makes me nostalgic

>>282106380

Agreed. It might be because it was introduction chapter. Hopefully it is not a limitation of the new artist.

If Megumi's children (assuming he didn't die a virgin) came out pretty strong for being raised well. would that be a good thing or a bad thing?
Who am I kidding, he's still getting clowned.

>>282106999
Most likely, he's using the sword's powers to replicate the Shin Kage skills. Batto, iirc, just amps your iai strike speed like crazy.
Honoyagi generates sparks and shit that amp the blade of the sword. Tsurugi probably uses that to amp his own iai speed, and couples it with the sword's power to shoot out fire and lightning.

>>282107254
The editor was right. People need generalized archetypes of warmer guy (Yuji), colder (Megumi), and a girl walking the line between femininity and girlbossness (Nobara).
But still, looking at how Geto was treated (no DE or RCT in HI, plus jobbed extremely hard to Toji for someone who was supposed to be Gojo's equal at that point, doesn't make narrative sense), I still think he was something of a disdain towards black haired guys of trios.

>>282107280
Megumi will die a virgin since he only ever wanted to fuck his sister

>>282107288
>I still think he was something of a disdain towards black haired guys of trios.
Yuta is the black haired boy of the JJK0 trio

>>282107280
Assuming Yuta, Yuji and Megumi all got to full potential, then Megumi is stronger than Yuji and #2 of the verse though.
>>282107290
Hana would rape him in his sleep in that case.

This manga puts Gege's amateur drawing skills to shame

>>282107295
Maybe he wanted to make Yuta the best black haired trio boy in the series. I don't know, but there's something fucked up with the way he treats Geto and Megumi. Geto lost to Yuta twice, too. And the first time was such an embarrassment. He made the other two eternal jobbers while giving Yuta the potential to surpass Sukuna.

>>282107302
Full potential Megumi means he tamed Mahoraga, which is basically impossible for what we see from his character.

>>282107280
I at least commend him for raising his children. People forget Gojo did not really raise him as a parent. That was all headcanon. Same with the training

>>282107319
Assuming Sukuna took on the challenge and didn't just use Malevolent Shrine to rip Mahoraga to shreds, Megumi should have seen from Sukuna how to tame Mahoraga. It'd fit with Sukuna's character to use only 10S to tame Mahoraga imo.

>>282107315
JJK's rough around the edges style gave it a unique charm, and it fit the more grounded street-level battle shonen vibe of the story

>>282107335
Could he even use shrine when taming mahoraga?
He can't use shrine while using 10s right?

>>282107319
There's a theory that 10S users needed someone with HR to fend off Mahoraga which is coincidentally Maki for Megumi's case
But I don't know. I don't like the concept of 10S because if you can tame Mahoraga. What's the point of the other 9? It's no wonder Megumi clutched to him whenever he's losing.

>>282107318
Yuji surpassed Sukuna not yuta

>>282107327
>People forget Gojo did not really raise him as a parent. That was all headcanon. Same with the training
The only person Gojo can train well would be another user of Limitless probably. And that won't exist so. Gojo is probably too busy saving the world anyway, training and as such can be left to Nanami, Kusakabe, etc. But I still think Gojo bought Megumi and Tsumiki gifts.

>>282107335
Given how souls work in JJK, I always assumed Mahoraga was automatically tamed to Sukuna once his soul entered Megumi's body, since he defeated him already in Shibuya

>>282107209
Anon.....they are making theories about aliens bringing Gojo back or him reincarnating alongside Sukuna (even though if Sukuna reincarnated he would do it with Wasuke, not Gojo), funnily enough the only time they don't insult Sukuna is when they pretend Sukuna and Gojo are a duo kek

>>282107344
I think he can use it if he imbues it into a domain.
>>282107359
It sounds cool, but probably not how it wouldn't work since he was an outsider to the ritual.

>>282107359
The ritual was stared by Megumi though. And if I remember correctly, taming only works when the sorcerer that started the ritual does it himself without any outside help

I think Megumi has a good character but he should not be a deuteragonist or a main character. That's likely the issue with most people against him.
Make him a side character since the start and the hate would be way less in reality

>>282107352
I can't see Yuji surpassing Kenjaku, let alone Sukuna

>>282107345
>There's a theory that 10S users needed someone with HR to fend off Mahoraga which is coincidentally Maki for Megumi's case
If its true... maybe Yuka's CT is the Ten Shadows. That dog fist is very likely just a CE martial art, like the Shin Kage style. So her CT reveal is still yet to come.

>>282107389
Most of the people complaining are just too power level brained, they only want male main characters who fight and are strong.

>>282107357
Didn't he take Megumi along with him and that's how he met Hanna?

>>282107270
you better hope he's the older brother in that context lol

>>282107341
And when Gege had to draw something that aren't blurry lines fighting at match speed he failed spectacularly

>>282107385
>taming only works when the sorcerer that started the ritual does it himself without any outside help
Then it's literally impossible to get mahoraga unless the user is JJK satan, Megumi ain't strong or fast enough to deal with him. No wonder the previous users couldn't either

>>282107380
>>282107385
Ok so Sukuna had to restart the ritual and only use 10S to try and tame Mahoraga. But this doesn't mean Megumi would be able to do the same thing, since we know Sukuna's CE levels let him accomplish far more with 10S than Megumi ever could. Remember that 15 finger Sukuna, immediately after taking over Megumi and being suppressed by Megumi's soul resisting him, is able to summon Yue the size of a skyscraper. This is Gege clearly showing that Sukuna's CE make his 10S usage potential several leagues above Megumi's

>>282107345
>What's the point of the other 9?
Maho isn't invincible. He may be enough for most sorcerers but when met against his match, he ideally has backup

>>282107372
I mean about these threads specifically bro.

>>282107398
I'm not sure if Gege deliberately wrote Megumi's character as a subversion. To me, it feels like it just emerged that way as a consequence of the narrative and it ended up being for the better (though he should have made Megumi look cool at the end post Sukuna). The only thing showing it was deliberate is his homosexual affection and obsession for Yuji

>>282107288
I wonder if this new trio will sell though
>Femc
It's a shounen magazine, people want a male mc
>Tsurugi
I doubt fujos will trust Gege after Megumi, megumifujos are even too embarrassed to defend Megumi anymore, not to mention he doesn't have fujo bait from the beginning (Yuji, Gojo and Sukuna)
>Maru
He is waaaay too genki to be someone as relatable and dork as Yuji, also no fujo bait like Yuji had with Megumi and Gojo nor a horror dynamic like he had with Sukuna

>>282107406
>Hey kid you wanna try some crack cocaine?

>>282107416
Megumi will also have Maki to help with the ritual. IDK, he can do it imo but I'm a Megumifag so.

>>282107406
That's because he prefers Sukuna

>>282107411
There's no rule stating CTs have to be fair and totally obtainable.
Blood Manipulation by itself is shit compared to BM with the user also having RCT or Death Painting physiology.
Ten Shadows has a trap at its peak that will kill overconfident users and can be used to achieve a forced draw.
If by some chance someone manages to kill Makora anyway, they get a big boon.

>>282107425
Maru will hard carry if you ask me. He feels like a more softer and kinder version of Gojo.

>>282107423
Gege was pissed because he was told to make new protagonists. He clearly wanted Yuta and Maki (that would have axed the manga as much as this pisses him off)

>>282107433
If anyone helps with the taming ritual, then Mahoraga is only tame for as long as he remains summoned that initial time. In order to permanently tame him, you have to beat him by yourself

FUCKING RIP VAN WINKLE FROM FUCKING HELLSING
I FUCKING KNEW YUKA REMINDED ME OF SOMEONE IN SPECIFIC DUE TO HER LOOKS
IT'S BEEN BOTHERING ME SINCE I FUCKING SAW THE LEAKED PAGES AND THE ANON SAYING SHE LOOKS LIKE A 90S FIGHTING CHARACTER DIDN'T SATE MY MEMORY
NOW I FUCKING REMEMBER IT AND NOW YOU FAGGOTS CAN'T UNSEE IT EITHER

>>282107425
Heh Maru seems like he will be interesting with Yuka at least, he feels more like Yuji but would be funny if this one is actually Sukuna trying to be more like Yuji

>>282107449
Maki can jump in since she has 0 CE, domains don't register her as a person.

>>282107416
>This is Gege clearly showing that Sukuna's CE make his 10S usage potential several leagues above Megumi's
This was also all but literally stated in the Yorozu fight. Where Sukuna is doing partial summons of the dogs, enabling him to summon a lot of them instead of just the base two. Partial summons weaken the summon heavily, but its stated that Sukuna's massive CE reserve avoids that problem: aka, Sukuna is juicing the TS shadows like a motherfucker.

I hate the fact 10S was wasted on Megumi. And what Sukuna did is just something Megumi has already done but stronger.

Gege could've gave a powerful technique to Megumi and still achieve the same thing but not something like 10S. We don't even get to see the tiger

>>282107288
>and a girl walking the line between femininity and girlbossness (Nobara).
In the trios that worked there's no girl that actually threads the girlboss line.
At most they are bitchy or naggy, but on a traditional way, not on a kike culture girlboss way.
Basically ALL shounen with these types of trios that have the girl actually go the girlboss route, whatever temporary that may be, end up crashing and burning eventually.
It just seems like a weird canary in the coalmine somehow.
For the record, the girl in this particular trio is actually naggy in that old feminine style kind of way, which is honestly really interesting coming from gege of all people.

>>282107425
It won't fail because they are looking for the magical girl audience.
Soon they will introduce a hot male side character for the MC to lust over just wait

>>282107463
And what the fuck is Maki supposed to do to Mahoraga? You need a Hollow Purple/Furnace level attack to take out Mahoraga before he adapts

>>282107425
Tsurugi at best will be
>Generic cool sword guy who actually gets to be cool and not whatever Megumi is
No fujobait is an instant nerf to his popularity though

>>282107474
Sukuna also had CE efficiency almost comparable to the six eyes. There's no way an otherwise normal guy like Bumgumi could ever hope to reach that level.

what happened to taking stories for what they are and judging them based on the quality of their writing?
reading opinions online it's just
>it has aliens, bad
>gojo is dead, bad
>sorcerers exist only in japan, bad
how are these even critiques? what is it about aliens that triggers people and makes them instantly dismiss a story without trying to look further.

i thought the chapter was good but this, imo, baseless negativity is really bumming me out, it just feels so random, the chapter expanded on the repercussions of cursed energy becoming worldwide knowledge, we got more elaboration on underdeveloped elements of the original manga like barrier techniques, the clans seems to have evolved since tsurugi doesn't seem marginalized because of his condition, each member of the main trio has clear motivations and objectives that will lead to good developments (something jjk didn't have outside of yuji)

"oh the manga has aliens so i will just shit on it now because in the writing bible it's written that aliens make any story terrible"

>>282107459
Yuji called him back in that dream chapter, that Sukuna had (hipster) hobbies and was just some manchildren larping as the King of Curses because he had no choice than to choose that role to survive the Heian era looking that deformed, in a different era he would have been more like Yuji

>>282107459
If Maru = Sukuna is true I can't wait for reincarnated Uraume to be jealous

>>282107489
You have 9 other shadows, domain's sure hit, plus Maki. Ask Yuta to draw up a plan for you, he probably tames him.
>>282107500
>Sukuna also had CE efficiency almost comparable to the six eyes.
No way. Probably not even 20%. I think it's possible to argue Kenjaku has higher efficiency than Sukuna since Sukuna is more of a tank guy

>>282107502
Are you really defending aliens anon? By all means you can like it all you want, but aliens is such an overdone trope, and on top of that it opens a whole can of worms with the world building that will likely never get resolved because it's fucking Gege.

We'll see how it pans out but I'm thinking it would've been better to just keep it supernatural and not bring sci-fi into this

>>282107463
>>282107489
>>282107532
To think of it, if gege had any brains he would have maho symbolize the pinnacle of summon CTs that is ultimately intended to be tamed by human progress.
It would mean among CTs he's peerless but by a cruel twist of irony intended to be tamed by monkey weaponry and not by jujutsu tradition.

>>282107532
The manga explicitly states Sukuna is a genius when it comes to manipulating Cursed Energy. It never explicitly states if him or Kenjaku know more about it, but those two being the only characters with barrierless domains says a lot

>>282107502
>>it has aliens, bad
let's be honest here anon, do you really have any trust in gege handling properly such a massive scope creep? in like 40 chapters?
>>gojo is dead, bad
this is just the normalniggers crying
>>sorcerers exist only in japan, bad
let's be real this is just the anti-japan faggotry from said normalniggers showing through

>>282107315

Gege isn't bad, he had excellent paneling and choreography.

Clearly the process of drawing was killing him though, and Gege seem to be a smart guy, so he did the sensible thing og handing that over to a guy with a nice clean style.

I can see this 3 volume thing basically being a feeler, and if it works out they make a Modolu sequel that aims for a bigger volume count.

>>282107557
Wasn't barrierless domains just a binding vow in the end?

The concept of Mahoraga doesn't make sense to me anyway

>A Shikigami that can adapt to any attack as long as it survives it
>The user needs to do this alone (assuming they have to do it solo)
>But Megumi is no prodigy. Even if he has the mindset and grit, there's no way he's surviving one slap from Mahoraga. It literally killed him until Sukuna healed him back in Shibuya
>And even if Megumi survives, he would've lost his shikigami in the process against Mahoraga

>>282107547
>It would mean among CTs he's peerless but by a cruel twist of irony intended to be tamed by monkey weaponry and not by jujutsu tradition.
Good idea anon though I have different headcanons for how 10S works.

>>282107576
Yesn't.
It's not an explicit binding bow, it just works like one because not trapping people results in more CE being used for the actual domain due to not having a barrier to maintain.

>>282107576

Yeah, but making "binding vows" is more than just thinking you have want to change a function of your ability. Seemingly, to make a binding vow "work", there is a skill aspect to it. A more skilled user can make more complex binding vows.

>>282107599
>Seemingly, to make a binding vow "work"
What you give up probably has to be equal to what you want to gain or it blows back up at your face.

Yuka sexo
Like damn, Gege did a really good job

>>282107599
I'm annoyed that pinky promises are a power level scaling tool

>>282107500
For sure. Megumi can't reach Sukuna's heights. (No one can. That was the manga's whole point.) But it shows avenues for taking the shadows further than the kinda crappy versions Megumi was summoning.
He can focus on amping his shadows and beefing them up, working on doing partial summons for extra flexibility. The shadow fusions are already something Megumi came up on his own, so that horizontal progression is something he's compatible with.

>>282107578

The reason Mahoraga is so strong is likely because it makes no sense. 10S is a complex technique, it's peobably been iterated on through generations of traditions. Mahoraga sort of acts like a binding vow. It is extremely strong because the binding vow makes it suicidal.

I miss Kashimo...

>>282107482
>Gege makes Megumi's grandkid look exactly like him
he will get mindraped by evil Sasuke this time

>>282107632
>Megumi can't reach Sukuna's heights. (No one can. That was the manga's whole point.)
Gojo is already above him. And Yuta can. No other character can probably.

>>282107639
Wasuke* dammit

>>282107646
Delusional

>>282107545
>but aliens is such an overdone trope
So is magic. And martial arts. And schools. And kids doing everything while adults are useless. And pretty much every other aspect of shonen manga.
You're just being a retard hater.

>>282107545
i'm not defending aliens, i literally do not care, when i saw there were aliens i just thought
>okay there are aliens in jjk
i just don't get what is it about aliens that would make people mad just by hearing about their existence?
>let's be honest here anon, do you really have any trust in gege handling properly such a massive scope creep? in like 40 chapters?
the issue is that i don't see why this would change the scope? we have an alien race invading earth and we will learn about this specific story, having aliens exist doesn't mean we need to learn about the whole universe in detail

...am I the only one who thinks it would be more interesting if these kids were Megumi's grandkids? I think that's a more personable starting point.

>>282107578
This would be fine if we're actually shown how Megumi even tames his shikigami......which for some reason was never shown once. He just has max elephant and rabbits for some reason

And you mean to tell me he never went for the deer?

>>282107646
Gojosister....let it go

>>282107599
>>282107616
>>282107618
I've said it before and I will say it again.
Binding vows are gay and it was also gay when hxh did it.
It is especially cringe when they make one on the fly.

aliens are "bad" in manga because boruto ruined the concept.

>>282107653
So don't keep adding shit on top of shit? Suck my dick you little troglodyte, your taste is shit. I'm glad you're getting bummed out and I hope you kill yourself.

>>282107646
Yuji>>>>>>>>Yuta, Yutard.

>>282107659
anything would have been better than Yuta and Maki's grandchildren. Gege doesn't seem to understand that people don't care about those guys. Imagine you have Yuji's children with Nobara, one Choso like with BM, one with Shrine, and one with Anti-Gravity and Nobara CT. You just have to pray Maru will hard carry it.

>>282107646
>Gojo is already above him.

>>282107646
Yuta couldn't even beat a tired Sukuna not even with Yuji's help and Rika nor Gojo's body

>>282107673
I like Yuji far more than Yuta, but in terms of power potential, Yuta clearly has it in the bag. If he gets rid of the 5 minutes limiter he has crazy potential. I can't see Yuji surpassing Kenny, let alone Sukuna

>>282107671
>I hope you kill yourself.
Already tried. It didn't take, alas.

>>282107682
Yuji had children with Yuko though

>>282107682
I didn't want them to be Yuji's. Yuji's my king but it's interesting to have him on the "outside" perspective, which gives him more potential as a role and the characters some uniqueness to "not" be part of the protagonist lineage. Only here, they turned out to be that since they're the kids of Gege's precious JJK0babbies.

>>282107545
nta but yes, I will defend aliens.
They are bad when they interrupt a story which has plenty left to resolve without them. The fucking alien fax machine will forever ruin Zero Time Dilemma because it's a shitty deus ex machina that robs the reader of a satisfying resolution within the established structure of a mystery.
But JJK is fucking resolved. It's in the books, the story was told. Now's the time to take it some other direction. Nobody was complaining about aliens in Samurai Flamenco or TTGL either.

>>282107702
Is that confirmed? I hate that. Yuji had insane compatbility with Nobara

>>282107659
When the choices are
>The two grandkids of gege's overpowered donut steel self-insert.
>Kids of the one guy gege has a goddamn hateboner for.
I think yuta is the lesser of two evils.

>>282107658
Sure, but on the same token why add aliens at all when there were some many other things that people wanted explored? I guess if you want to be positive you can say that it adds some whimsy, but is whimsy really needed? It seems Gege may be exploring the topic of understanding one another, and I guess the ultimate other would be a literal alien, but we'll see how it goes. I don't think it's automatically the worst thing either but it could've been better.

>>282107695
>If he gets rid of the 5 minutes limiter he has crazy potential.
>If Yuta had literally unlimited CE he has crazy potential

>>282107712
>Nobody was complaining about aliens in Samurai Flamenco or TTGL either.
Its really just Naruto/Boruto's fault for the extreme hate towards aliens.
You never really used to see this sort of backlash towards the concept itself before that.

Megumi probably dies of old age but was able to breed with Hana and got kids and those kids got children of their own
That's the most I can say for his fate. Underwhelming since he didn't feel complete but it's better than dying to some random curse

But eh, jujutsufolk echo chambers don't decide on megumi's popularity since there's still merch of him everyday that gets sold out.

>>282107743
>jujutsufolk
That community was an eternal plague to every anime and manga community.

>>282107743
I can imagine Gege saying Megumi died to a random special grade curse.

>>282107578
It makes sense from a surface level design perspective.
>So there's this guy that can summon shadow animals and stuff.
>First he starts with weak stuff then he continues unlocking stronger and more versatile stuff.
>And the final boss is one shadow that is super duper strong that needs all the previous shadows to be beaten.
>But I already designed all these powers for the other shadows, what can I use for the boss?
>Uhhhh idk he can become invulnerable and copy anything, sounds strong and menacing enough.

>Oh but also has to be done solo because readers will whine about other friends just helping one shot the raid boss.
>Oh but also the shadows can permanently die, that way my readers won't be smartasses asking the user to constantly summon the strong shadows as cannon fodder until he wins, I want CONSEQUENCES and STAKES baby.
This kind of thing really goes to show how little care gege puts into important stuff.

>>282107709
Yeah I would have preferred Yuji's kids, Megumi's kids or even them being not related to yutamaki, since I can see them being reduced to those godawful characters

>>282107695
Yuji was the one mentioned along Gojo and on top of that he has sukuna's genes, Yuji>>>>>Yuta and I'm fucking tired of coward yutafags larping as Yujifags

>>282107743
I kinda dig the idea of Megumi still being alive. Alone, no family, no kids. But he's the new Gakuganji of Kousen. Old as fuck fart overseeing new generations.

>>282107767
Nah, 10S is one of the most well thought out techniques except for not showing Sukuna taming it imo. It's just a condensed version of Cursed Spirit Manipulation. Read Mahoraga is Taira no Masakodo theory
>>282107791
Nice idea

>OG MC gets sidelined and his narrative abandoned because of editors.
>Get involved as little as possible.
>Still massively out shines nu MC.
Has there ever been a character which caused this much envious seething?

>>282107502
i liked the aliens

>>282107712
>Nobody was complaining about aliens in TTGL either.
They were.
They also complained about it on franxx, which is basically TTGL3.
They also complained about the alien asspull from KLK.
I also was there to witness the whining about the alien asspull from eva.
To think about it the hate towards ayys in anime/manga is likely thanks to gainax/trigger.

>>282107695
This isn't true. Yuji is explicitly stated to have Sukuna's potential. Yuji knows Sukuna's whole kit and can work off it. On top of that, he has blood manipulation on top. Meanwhile Yuta has an assortment of mostly useless abilities that will eventually run out since Copy has a limit.

Job of the century incoming

>>282107756
i don't think so, it's not humiliating enough
he may say he got shanked in an alley and died tho

>>282107599
>Yeah
No, it's a question of barrier technique skill and imagination.
Megumi might have been able to achieve it, if he had a slightly different attitude, he was circling it with his idea of overlaying his domain's effect on reality, he was just not skilled enough to implement a proper sure-hit.
The binding vow thing is simply a consequence of an open barrier leaving an escape route.

>>282107646
The replies to this anon did not disappoint

>>282107712
Anon, it's nonsensical to bring completely different shows for proof as to why bringing Aliens to the table isn't a bad idea. Those two shows are parodies of genres where Aliens were already staples. But anyways, if Gege thinks bringing Aliens will better serve the story, the sure, I'll roll with it.

>Yujeets insinuating Yuta and Yuji are even in the same ballpark.
Why are yujeets so delusional?

>>282107805
This is unironically what I want

>>282107780
>>282107803
The manga has Uraume state that Sukuna is yet to go all out (same person who said Yuji has equal potential to Sukuna) and Gojo state that Hakari will surpass him. Like how lol? The manga's statements aren't that important, it's all for the weekly hype so readers will buy the next week's release as well. You have to think about the power system yourself.

I'm an Ui Ui fag before I'm a Yujifag and much before I'm a Yutafag, but Yuji just doesn't have the same intelligence or drive or mentality as Sukuna. Do you see Yuji acquiring WCS? If he did that and also awakened to Anti-Gravity CT and mastering BM I can see him surpassing Sukuna though.

>>282105345
our HEROES

>>282107743
>jujutsufolk
Still one of the worst anime communities ever. This isn't about Megumi, In my case, they were relentless against Sukuna

>>282107850
>they were relentless against Sukuna
Why are they known for hating Sukuna?

>>282107840
>I'm an Ui Ui fag
I will never trust your judgement

>>282107578
10s is versatile if nothing else.
Even without Mahoraga you 9 different shikigami that can be used in a variety of ways and can also fuse with eachother not including the totality stuff.
That combined with a domain and I am sure there is way to wear mahoraga down with a bunch of different moves.

>>282107858
because he killed gojo which the pajeets really disliked to say the least

>>282107865
>Megumi did this once and never again with other combos
You can't even say he didn't think about fusing because he can do that.

>>282107840
Obviously. It's speaking only of talent, not definite conclusions.

>>282107859
Simple domain at 12. Contributed more than most people to Shinjuku.

>>282107877
Okay but how do you explain Gojo saying Hakari will surpass him. At a minimum, Gojo was top two sorcerer in 1000 years. Suddenly the guy says there are a few people who'll surpass him in this generation alone.

>>282107865
>He showcased this the first time
>Immediately fails because Todo blitzed him
There's no winning for megumi

>>282107896
Very simply, he was wrong.

>>282107881
HE WAS GROOMED

>>282107850
>>282107743
For some reason, they're nice towards Yuji despite other communities hating him because he is not impressive enough to be an MC and since most of his showing is him punching and kicking with no other variations.

>>282107858
He killed Gojo, before that they were masturbating at the idea of Gojo saving Sukuna with the power of love. They downvote any theory about Sukuna but then pretend they are le goatjo/goatkuna team when they feel threatened by Gege upscaling the power level system

>>282107578
You "just" have to OHKO it and its yours to summon and use. The only real issue is actually killing it if you fail to kill it on your first try.

>>282107921
Exactly. Part of Gojo's problem was over-estimating the few talented guys he saw. Dude wanted someone to be on his level, so he could have some companionship at the mountain's peak. So him saying these guys would surpass him was just wish fulfillment.
The manga goes on to show that, no, no one can ever come close to Gojo and Sukuna. They're way too wacked out and juiced.

>>282107896
NTA but in complete honestly, I think gojo was straight up coping there.

>>282107869
>>282107929
It's not just that. They were relentless because Sukuna needed so many tools and setups for him to even beat Gojo. Like needing Megumi's body as a meatshield

>>282107927
They PRETEND to like Yuji anon. I go there sometimes to look at the autism. These turned on Yuji when he tried to save Sukuna (the arc they wanted for Gojo btw), NEVER analyzes his chapters with Nanami, Sukuna, Megumi, Todo etc
They also stopped shitting on Kenjaku and Mahito and pretend they are fans now (only because they didn't kill Gojo)
Of course they even wanted to ally with the Sukuna fandom to ask for Yuta's death because of Yutajo
It's fascinating how cultists they are and how they constantly change sides when it's convenient to them

>>282107896
Hakari surpassing Gojo is very possible. Hakari has a busted kit. He's just fucking underutilizing all of it.
>doesn't have real RCT, just a byproduct of JP
>doesn't have DA
>doesn't use cursed tools
Any of these would make Hakari near invincible, and he just chooses to punch and kick and gamble.

>>282107946
>They're way too wacked out and juiced.

What the Jujutsu equivalent of Anabolic steroids? Get my boy Yuji on some of that shit. He needs the Jack treatment

>>282107948
Maybe he was just being nice because he didn't want to say he only thought Yuji had any chance?

>>282107954
Sukuna was always a nerd, see how he wanted to test things with Yorozu. Besides he knew he needed to fight other people anyway

>>282107923
incest = power boost

>>282107954
Before Gojo died they were happy with it though
Besides if Sukuna killed him without tools they would say he is a Gary stu supported by Gege so he literally couldn't win

>>282107965
Binding bows :^))))))

>>282107896
Not outlandish
>Megumi
We know firsthand that Mahoraga can surpass limitless. Depending on how Megumi grew, it was possible.
>Hakari
Infinite CE and plot luck is busted. People shit on Hakari but it is a fact that Hakari has never lost. He's the ultimate wall. All he's lacking is a proper offense, which is easily acquired
>Yuji
All because of getting Sukuna's technique. This is just easy to explain
>Yuta
His lineage, massive CE pool, talent, and bag of tricks make him the potential man of the setting.

>>282107999
All things considered I think Gege did pretty well. Sukuns needing prep time and tools makes Gojo look good, so I don't see why that's a problem if you're a Gojo fag. If anybody was teaching love to Succ it was always going to be Yuji.

I find ironic Jjk folk treats Gojo like a tool while a lot of Sukunas I'm seeing say they like the idea of him being happy as an alien now.
Makes me wonder if jjkfolk ever read the part where Sukuna didn't even care about the strongest meme and said he lost and now he can move on.
Actually Sukuna losing is what saved him from his villain loop

>>282108011
>All because of getting Sukuna's technique. This is just easy to explain
Talk about nepobaby.

Gojo feels more like a manwha character, there is not much to it, and I can see why Gege prefers to write other characters better. It's like Oda with Buggy, iirc he said he can do whatever he feels with him and he is way more open with goofy characters (see takaba Kenjaku and Sukuna seething) over gary stues like Gojo

>>282107965
>What the Jujutsu equivalent of Anabolic steroids?
Fate. And Heavenly Bindings. And Binding Vow bullshit.
Honestly, Yuji is the one guy who I would say CAN maybe reach near the Gojo/Sukuna level. And that is only because of Uruame and Sukuna recognizing him to have that potential due to being Sukuna's twin's grandson.
But the manga's ending was also all about how Yuji is not going to pursue power and how he doesn't need to be a monster to help people. So even if he could reach that level, he was never ever going to make the effort to get there.

>>282107965
This is where the yujeet seething comes from, isn't it?
They want cogji to be as cool as Yuta so bad.
Too bad cogjij will never be MC material.

>>282108035
>Gojo feels more like a manwha character,
What does that make Yuta then?

>>282108024
>Makes me wonder if jjkfolk ever read the part where Sukuna didn't even care about the strongest meme and said he lost and now he can move on.
The thing about sukuna is that people seem to not understand he's completely unbound by concepts applied by anyone else.
He wasn't the strongest because he wanted to, he just ended up as the strongest because he did what he felt like it without giving a shit about what anyone else said or did.
Ironically enough he fucking died due to starting to care about what the kozo said and did.
And even more ironically there's a lot of jewtube videos explaining literally this, yet those exact same ecelebs are shitting their pants about sukuna going "welp, sucks to suck, bye nerds" instead of throwing a tantrum over losing.

>>282108021
Wasn't it obvious that Gojo was stronger BUT Sukuna was smarter? Gojo is the Queen in Chess but Sukuna is able to win against the Queen using pawns
Also Gojo had more people waiting their turn anyway

>>282108045

>>282108035
Gojo was meant for a different kind of story. Pigeon holed as he is as the strongest sensei character in Shounen, he was bound to lose. And he died happy anyways, not of old age or disease so I count it as a win.

>>282102817 (OP)
>remember when fags said Yuta ain't the protagonist
Kek, the story continues through his family

>>282108059
>The strongest
>Could've just killed Jogo the first time, that way. Naobito wouldn't have to die, Nanami in critical condition for him to die later, and Maki getting shish kebab
Hanami is a nothing burger since it never killed any character
>And the one fight where it matters is him getting killed
I don't know why the community clowns on Megumi when Gojo is doing much worse despite having realized potential

>>282108050
yes and the writer jerks off Yuta because he sees him as the combination between Gojo and Sukuna

>>282108024
>>282108049
Unironically sukuna character was always too high IQ for Gojofags. The only one who saw Sukuna for who he was was Yuji and that's why it pissed him off while others like Yorozu, Kashimo Gojo etc saw him like that majestic strong being who only care about his strength
Also I still kek when he stops in the middle of a fight to think about his life

>>282107712
Comparing JJK to Samurai Flamenco is so stupid it's funny. Samurai Flamenco was fairly grounded in reality until episode 7 and was referencing a shit ton of different genres and series with aliens trying to invade earth. JJK doesn't have references to aliens in either its prequel or its 30 volumes. Suddenly there are aliens only a few decades later in a sequel that looks like a cheap cash grab and it could retcon a lot of already established things. It would have made more sense if it were a lot more subtle OR introduced at least halfway through the OG series, and if it were more of a background thing.

>>282108050
Yes, Sukuna had way more knowledge on Jujutsu tech compared to Gojo. I think it was shown properly as Sukuna is a sorcerer who lived during the golden age (though sometimes a little silly like Gojo just letting him touch his back to avoid his domain). Meanwhile, Gojo just needed a 0.2 second (lol) head start on his domain to incapacitate Sukuna and would've won if Sukuna hadn't come prepared. Though, World Slash takes Sukuna up another level, beyond Gojo.

>>282108045

>>282108098
Can't have the sensei character clean house otherwise he becomes a full blown Gary stu.

>>282108133
>Though, World Slash takes Sukuna up another level, beyond Gojo.
It's stated that Gojo can dodge one from close distance and he only didn't because his guard was down after taking down Mahoraga. So probably not.

>>282107881
STRONGER THAN SUKUNA

>>282108050
I actually thought of it the other way round. Gojo had more raw power, but Sukuna was more cunning and underhanded, and we see repeatedly that the latter is what "makes" the soul of sorcerer.

>>282108098
Honestly, for all of Megumi's fuck ups. At least he was too weak to fight back. Gojo however, gets traumatized because his boyfriend came back as a zombie and got sealed in a box

>>282108162
I unironically want him to be a special grade by achieving reversal of his cursed technique. The way I imagine is Ui Ui's technique feels similar to Gojo's, so instead of not letting anything in, he can make things fly and shoot them at people. He can also fly and teleport really fast like that blonde guy from Mob Psycho 100.

>>282108154
Even if he's capable of dodging it, it ultimately renders infinity useless. Mahogany took his arm the first time, and Gojo was aware Maho could bypass his infinity. It would've been a matter of time.

>>282108024
>I find ironic Jjk folk treats Gojo like a tool
His fangirls didn't, if anything they understood Gojo so well that their headcanons about his childhood and daily life turned out to be confirmed by Gege himself.

>>282108115
>Gojo after fighting Sukuna: ah! He was SO strong!
>Yuji: just be a better guy next time retard haha you like flowers

>>282108050
Sukuna is absolutely smarter and more skilled, but it's not clear how he would have approached the fight in different circumstances. For some reason people forget that Sukuna was fixated on beating Infinity in particular despite Sukuna stating this outright after the opening Hollow Purple. Mahoraga was ultimately a tool he took advantage of but it was also a flour sack baby he was buying time for (something Gojo notices).

>>282108169
You wouldn't find it disturbing if your dead waifu came back possessed by some talking brain?

>>282108200
For him learning things>>>>>being stronger

>>282107962

Hakari's kit was super complex though, he had one of the most developed domain expansions in the series. Honestly I don't know what more there is to ask for, it's not like he could just "will" the ability to shoot laserbeams out his eyes into existence. At lost he could learn to black flash, but not everyone is born with that potential.

>>282108055
As an avid LN reader, that's a can of worms you are not ready to open.
Yuta is actually closer to an MC from battle harems of old than an isekai MC.
>A bit of a goof but not a dumbass dork, a chick magnet despite looking plain, an overpowered donut steel power that is either null element or copycat/power absorption shit, also a rean-style sword, also decent amount of ki/mana/power/whatever that can easily go out of control if the MC goes berserk, and eventually develops oneitis for either their childhood frien, the first girl in the story, or their summoned spirit.
Does rakudai, bahamut, sword dance, etc sound a bell? That's from where it comes from.

Then you have the early 10s isekai MC
>Guy whose background frankly doesn't matter, but they end up in a very unfortunate position at the extreme bottom of the world's totem pole and end up literally clawing their way to the top through combat, and more often than not committing taboos and crimes on their way to simply surviving, until eventually long term inevitably being as strong or stronger than gods by sheer happenstance because they just got addicted to fighting and becoming stronger.
Which applies to sukuna, and comes from the likes of re monster, kumo, arifureta, etc.

You are likely thinking of late 10s and 20s isekai for mainstream normalniggers.
>Guy from a salaryman or neet background, who just so happens to obtain an extremely overpowered ability upon reincarnating, as well as the mastery to use it to it's fullest from the start and only grow even stronger from there, all girls literally melt upon witnessing him, and will basically face no real challenge during most of his journey until meeting the only other possible being that could put up a fair fight, another reincarnator.
Which funnily enough applies more to gojo than you'd think.

Whatever you do with this taboo information is up to you.

>>282108200
Right. Sukina could use domain amplification WHILE inside his domain. That alone could've finished Gojo if Sukina had been serious.

>>282102817 (OP)
Didn't enjoy this at all

Remember when Gojo died and all he said in the airport is that he felt bad about Sukuna and didn’t think about his students even once?

>>282108098
>Gojo finally makes better decisions and kill his enemies instead of letting them escape
>Gojo's homosexuality and obsessions with his high school sweetheart doesn't get in the way so he doesn't end up in the box
Okay so now what? JJK becomes a boring one shot and nobody ever dies besides the antagonists and Yuji's peepaw because I don't know, maybe he was a chain smoker or whatever.

>>282108251
He kinda thought about Megumi. And Shoko. And Toji. No one else though. He's happy with his boyfriend and school friends, pls understand.

>>282108251
Everyone loves Sukuna

>>282108253
Gege did the right thing by making Megumi obsessed with Yuji and Gojo with Geto. I always liked it when two men treated each other like husband and wife where the husband is unnecessarily obsessed with the wife.

>>282108144
It's just some guy comparing another guy to a meme in one panel, not an elaborate retelling of a tokusatsu tv show about guys beating the shit out of criminals and aliens. FMA also made that exact same joke about Edward being way shorter than Alphonse's armor and Mustang, was he an alien from Mars too?

>>282108231
...How many isekais have you read to gain this knowledge?

>>282108011
>Mahoraga
There is no way a regular ten shadows user could ever surpass Gojo. There's no way they could tame Mahoraga, Sukuna only does it because he's Sukuna. Megumi could never surpass Gojo because Gojo surpassed Mahoraga even after Mahoraga learned how to beat limitless. Gojo lost because Sukuna was able to match his technique to Mahoraga's method of cancelling limitless.

Megumi only gets anywhere near the top 10 list if you count him being able to summon Mahoraga one (1) time, killing himself in the process.

>>282108284
The anon you're replying to is clearly joking...

>>282108270
He thought about Megumi in the airport? I don’t remember

>>282108295
Was Gege though? It's a little too coincidental though, especially if it turns out Sukuna is part alien or whatever.

I see Gojo, Yuji, and Megumi sharing very similar themes but with different powerlevels. Maybe that's why they've always been top 3 in Japan. Megumi gets the short end because he's the "weak" one of the concept between the strongest, the one who became strong, and the one who refuses to be strong

>>282108288
How many loaves of bread have you eaten in your life?

What suprised me the most is that Yuta out lived Maki.

>>282108307
He had two panels where he thinks about Megumi and the stuff with Toji, but then remembers he told Shoko to deal with it.

>>282108316
>especially if it turns out Sukuna is part alien or whatever.
No way, Sukuna and Toji's theme are that they are more human than anyone else (they use realistic strategies) while people like Gojo and Geto have the theme of perfection.

>>282108251
It felt like a back handed insult:
>wow I feel so bad for this friendless guy who never knew love evee in his entire life so he's throwing a temper tantrum. what a loser lol. couldn't be me, right Suguru, my dear boyfriend?

I can smell yujeets a thread away.

>>282108236
Yes. I genuinely don't know why people miss this.

>>282108343
hahah

>>282108329
You.. you're not human anymore.

>>282108273
Based fujo.

>>282108325
What about Yuta? Him wanting to become the strongest so that no one else is forced to seems more fitting than Megumi's refusal.

>>282108295
JJK fans are on average so dumb I never know if they're even able to use sarcasm or if they're serious. My bad.

>>282108365
Megumi is "I have the potential to be the strongest but I refuse to if it means I get treated like a monster"

I guess Yuta can be the fourth concept

>>282108231
i dont know how to process this information you have cursed me with

>>282108231
>YUTA IS FUCKING REAN
YUTA IS FUCKING REAN
>YUTA IS FUCKING REAN
YUTA IS FUCKING REAN
>YUTA IS FUCKING REAN
YUTA IS FUCKING REAN

>>282108446
Rean is at least funny unlike yuta

>>282108343
It's kind of funny tho, Sukuna had Uraume and Yorozu both of whom would die for the guy and Gojo only had Geto who simply walked out on him despite being the strongest

>>282108499
It's a one sided thing with Yorozu as far as we know. With Uraume, how much did he really understand Sukuna? Not more than Geto understood Gojo I bet.

>>282108144

Not to mention the "Star Children" cult.

>>282108284
Nigga, its a shitpost. Calm your tits.

>>282108295
See, he gets it.

>>282108512
>With Uraume, how much did he really understand Sukuna? Not more than Geto understood Gojo I bet.
Yeah, one of Geto's primary purposes in killing all non-sorcerers is to make sure Gojo is no longer treated as a weapon. So yeah I'd say Geto deserting would have made Gojo love him even more.

>>282108499
>Sukuna had Uraume and Yorozu both of whom would die for the guy
Yeah and he didn't actually care about them or share a proper relationship with them. They were being sycophants in a one sided manner. He never loved anyone, and the two people that "loved" him consist of a thirsty woman that never even knew him and his walking food freezer.

>>282108518
>first the star plasma vessel shit
>now this
stop trying to make me believe gege actually planned this shit

>>282108566
Speaking of, it's pretty clear that the cult was started by Kenjaku (or at least taken over by him at one point) as another long-term chess piece to prevent one of Tengen's future mergers.

>>282108581
Huh, good eye to detail.

>>282108512
Doesn't seem like it, like they said only Yuji was able to call out Sukuna for what he was

>>282108518
I was just shitposting, but if you want to go full conspiracy.
Tengen's codename was 星 "star/planet". Her fusion victims are 星漿体 "Star Plasma Vessel". Her secret base under Kousen is the 薨星宮 Dying Star Palace. And of course, like you said, there were the Children of the Star, and their 盤星教 Supreme Celestial religion.

>>282108566
>Tengen's transcendence means he becomes a being that becomes one with the earth
>We see a tengen like figure with the aliens

Anons....

>>282108621
Was Tengen ever said to have been "human" in the manga?
I suppose it's possible she was a Simurian, since they look pretty much human, who didn't have the tattoos or extra eyes.
I wouldn't really like that development, personally.

>>282108678
If she were a Simuriam, then why would they send an embassador to learn about earthlings, especifically sorcerers? Unless she was just a random one that crashed on earth.

>>282108708
>tengen came to earth on the roswell ufo crash, which is why kenny had no problems with quickly getting the amerimutt gov involved
DO IT GEGE
FUCKING DO IT
NO FUCKING BALLS

>>282108678
>Was Tengen ever said to have been "human" in the manga?
I don't think the word was used explicitly, but Kenjaku knew them personally in the past and didn't seem to comment on anything unusual

>>282108717
Roswell is too recent, Tengen has been here for thousands of years.

>>282108050

Gojo's problem was always that he was too strong to be skilled. He was technically speaking incredibly skilled at technique manipulation, but precisely because he was so overwhelmingly skilled at this field, his combat instincs were frankly kinda trash compared to scrappier sorcerers like Sukuna and Yuji.

This is kinda apparent from how Gojo gets caught by the prison realm while Sukuna deals with a multitude of certain kill techniques just by LITERALLY JUST DODGING.

Gojo kept eating a lot of shit because he relied on his technique for everything, so whenever someone bypassed that he just took the hit (and relied on RCT to tank it, so again technique).

Gojo would get hit by a wrench in dodgeball.

>>282108678
To be fair, even if Tengen was stated to be human, it would have been under the context of there being no aliens. She could have just lied and said she was human, and the Nips accepted it because... of course, why wouldn't they? She's their god.
Really, though.
If King Ayy's attendent really is a Tengen looking person, then I'm guessing its not that Tengen was an alien, but that Tengen's evolved form is some ascended form caused by CE that happens to all lifeforms.

That dummy Kenjaku should have just been more patient, imagine his joy at finding out aliens exist and they have access to something similar to sorcery.

>>282108744
Using the prison realm example is blatantly unfair. Being surprised your best friend, who you watched die and personally buried, up and walking is surprising. Being surprised by that isn't a lack of combat fundamentals or arrogance or whatever other list of negative attributes people claim that scene is indicative of.

>>282108769
>aliens exist and they have access to something similar to sorcery.
I think its straight up sorcery. If Malu had used an energy other than CE when he used his "CT" on Yuka, Yuka would have noticed. Since he was applying his power directly onto her.

>>282108744
>>282108771
Besides Sukuna himself gets caught off guard. Maki got him good, and presumably could've killed him on the spot if she had gone for the head.

>>282108841
>>282108841
Sukuna also gets distracted and playing around too much during the next fights, don't know why Gojo fags think only Gojo made a mistake

>>282108757

Tengen also jumped bodies on multiple occasion, so she was human on a technicality.

But yeah, I'd expect that Tengen, Sukuna and the Ayys being the products of a high level of cursed potential leading to bodily mutation.

Also, Ayys are the natural result of cursed energy being an extremely powerful energy source and how barrier techniques lead to instant transmission, aka FTL travel.

The Ayys don't even need to be more technically advanced than humans, the right combination of barrier techniques could create an entirely magical spaceship.

>>282108841

Yeah but Sukuna is also fighting a bunch of dudes at once. His fighting instincs and tactics were way better than Gojos.

>>282108864
>>282108887
>Sukunababys immediately get defensive

All's fair in love and war. Sukuna got caught slipping multiple times.

>>282108898

He didn't trip and get caught in half by an attack he'd already seen once though.

>>282108869
I suppose you could be right that she was jumping bodies, but it sounded more like she absorbed the Star Plasma Vessels into her own body. That may have just been due to the mythology she built around the process.

>>282108869
>Tengen also jumped bodies on multiple occasion, so she was human on a technicality.
She wasn't jumping bodies. The whole thing with the fusions was that she was keeping her original body.
She was merging with the Vessels, and according to Hidden Inventory, the merge rewrites her body's information. Its become a combination of the two bodies.
It was basically super fancy rewriting of her genetic code to fool her CT into thinking it was a new person and thus reset the 500 year timer on kickstarting the evolution.

>>282108887
Gojo's base instincts were fine, he's also one of the best hand-to-hand fighters in the entire series, rivalled only by Sukuna himself. Sukuna just better understood what it meant to be a Jujutsu sorcerer in the way we saw in the Reggie vs Megumi fight (best fight in the entire series by the way)

>>282108898
>No argument
Gojeets are pathetic man

Yujifags better hope he's dead. If he comes back, he'll be humiliated. Gege will sacrifice him to save Yuta's grandkids

>>282108957

Pretty easy to seem good at hand-to-hand fighting when no one can actually punch you back.

The actual goats of hand to hand hadbto actually deal with getting punched back

>>282109183
If that's the case bring him back. I need this series in flames.

>>282109414
He had funky ass proportions. Yuta even says he must have trained extremely hard to fight as well as he did with his build.

>>282110230
That was more about Yuta being unused to having different proportions, the way I read it.
