There's actually a fun theory I've seen floating around that Geto isn't entirely gone and some aspect of him or his spirit or whatever might be slowly rewiring the evil brain from within, more or less. Because there've been a few moments where he spoke, or acted, like Geto seemingly without intending to or realizing it. But it could also just be overly hopeful stuff and the guy playing up whatever body he's in.

Nah Gege said in an interview that Geto is gone. The part where his body acted on its own was the last remnants remaining

Yeah, I'd think an ancient body snatcher has that kind of thing on lock.

Entirely possible Gege is the kind to shift plans for something cooler.
This chapter has the same kind of energy as before the shibuya incident. In that kenjaku steps on the field kind of feel

We got a translation for a recent interview and info on the major clans. Though the translator is annoying in that they don't translate terms.

rip gravity elephant cursed spirit. Kenjaku probably izumaki'd it to gain the gravity-based cursed technique that he used to smush Choso's supernova pellets before they could explode

But choso said that Kenjaku used a technique other than cursed spirit manipulation, which I presume uzumaki falls under

The cursed spirits' techniques he extracted through uzumaki are the techniques that he's trying to hide from Choso and Yuki. He wouldn't be able to have multiple techniques without uzumaki. Geto's power is really wild tbh especially since it was considered special grade level solely from its ability to control cursed spirits

Geto did not even know about that Ability of Uzumaki. Kenjaku is just overall better at using Cursed Spirit Manipulation than Geto was.

He does but he was unaware of it’s secondary effect so he never used powerful curses with it. Kenjaku states he kind of viewed it as a useless move as it gives up the greatest advantage of Cursed Spirit Manipulation, but after experimenting discovered it’s true worth was when it was with Semi Grade 1 or better Curses as it extracts the Cursed Spirit’s Technique and gives it to the user, before throwing the mass of Cursed Energy at an opponent. Soon after he uses it to grant himself Mahito’s Technique.

You'd be correct. Also, I'm re-reading Shibuya's arc from the beginning after double checking Kenjaku's final monologue. Such a good story arc.

Interested in seeing the domain expansion of someone with multiple techniques. Or if Kenjaku has a DE at all since I don't think it was confirmed Geto had a DE. Would they even share the same DE? It would reveal a lot about the body-mind-soul system of the JJK world. I'm sure the 2nd greatest barrier user can figure something out.

Geto does not have one but Kenjaku does.

I doubt it, probably just something that forced everything down.

I'm not sure what I make of the cursed energy to regular energy twist yet. I'm not too bothered by it either way as it seems entirely a tool for Gege to really get a stew cooking in the colonies rather than a set-up for the exploration of the real world energy crises. The idea of regular soldiers showing up in the colonies is a pretty big escalation which I like, so for that reason I'm down with it either way.

I was surprised Itadori didn't immediately announce he was the disgraced one. I feel like that's maybe a cannier move than he would have made before the events of Shibuya.

The fight with Choso and Kenjaku is really fun. I am glad Geto is getting the recognition he deserves, I think Gojo can really overshadow just how strong the other special class sorcerers are. He effectively fought a war on two fronts single handedly during the night parade. I am still curious if Kenjaku's extraction is a single use of the cursed spirit power or not.

Even if they manage to lie to angel for a while, Hakari and the lads are on the way to unintentionally throw a spanner in the works there I think. He already has his work cut out for him convincing Itadori to let Sukuna out on the town.

What's the source on this? Not doubting, just don't recall it if it's in the manga. I haven't read the volume releases yet though.

Kenjaku is the second best barrier user, and Choso and Yuki have assumed he has one. Geto meanwhile has never been implied to be capable of it, and if he was would have used it against Yuta.
