Should note his technique was the recreation of contracts. Turns out Receipts are an easy contract to find in the Modern world.

Since its break week, just wanted to share some random stuff. Gege uses a lot of Buddhism references.

I've also been reading the jujutsu subreddit and while there's a ton of really dumb and over complicated fan theories and speculation on there (probably 90% of it) there's also a few posts that are genuinely pretty interesting and well thought out. Ones that stood out to me from this week:


https://old.reddit.com/r/Jujutsushi/comments/vmymx6/sukuna_uraume_and_their_techniques_may_be/
This one seems pretty acute as to Sukuna's cursed technique

https://old.reddit.com/r/Jujutsushi/comments/vlttlr/nobara_never_died_a_recap_of_events_in_shibuya/
This one is pretty interesting about Nobara's return (scroll to the end after the super long recap). I never noticed how similar Angel looks to Yuji's classmate

feel like the best case for nobara coming back is a one sentence "they didn't just kill one of the main cast offscreen with no build-up or climax to it"

Is this the first time we've heard of stopping DE by just chopping off the hand making the hand sign? Didn't realize DE could only be done with a specific hand either.

Unfortunately, Todo lost his hand due to Idle Transmformation which can't be healed by anyone other than Mahito or Kenjaku. Hakari got a regular old amputation so he's fine, Yuta will probably handle it for him.

When Naobito realized Dagon was going for a Domain Expansion he tried to interfere with his hands, but Dagon made the seal with a different part of his body given that he was a curse and was capable of that.

It also adds another layer of superiority to Gojo (as if he needed it) since he does his seal one handed.

Hakari and Kashimo were great but I'm super-excited to spend some time with Mai since someone put forward the theory that the new arrival is Naoya's remnant curse which I now desperately want to be true so she can whip it's rear end.

People theorized it was because when you kill a sorcerer without cursed energy(and Maki doesn't have any), you get curses.The question is now if it's only Naoya or the entire Zenin clan fused into a pissed off curse

Maki killed the others with a Cursed Tool, Naoya was killed by Maki's mom with a normal Kitchen Knife.

Maki's weapon should be leaving behind cursed energy since the narration of the Zen'nin massacre says there were traces of it left behind. Naoya was killed by Maki's mother who should have had no CE at all.

I didn't like that personally. Feels like baddies leaving bond to slowly die while they head out. I don't think Kamo is obviously going to be that critical to events but regardless it always comes across as weak writing to me.
