Maki showing up and Yuji telling her to kill fushiguro ruled.

Now off to figure out what the “bath” means.

Sukuna's "lol hold up this is gonna be really loving funny, watch" was incredible.

So is it really over for Megumi? Just realized Yuji is showing no doubt in killing Sukuna and I'm just wondering if it's because of the threat of Sukuna or if he knows Megumi ain't coming back.

The “kill him, he’ll come back” makes me think Itadori had some plan in mind to get Sukuna back in his body which would give Megumi his body back

I imagine the plan was to bite Megumi’s finger off and wing it from there

sukuna can heal the body he's in so it doesn't matter if they "kill" megumi

If this is the Harima statue Sukuna is talking about I can see the resemblance.

Otherwise I'm curious if Sukuna is talking about a statue from Harima prefecture.

I believe the subtext is that they both have to fight to kill since that might not even be enough to beat Sukuna.

Sukuna is one of the best written villains so far. he's not a mustache twirling idiot; he's an actual rear end in a top hat

Not giving your all in Jujutsu is how you die as a failure surmounted by the people around you willing to put everything on the line. The whole power system even encourages it through elements like sharing tips on your power to make them stronger to deal with.

This is explicitly the reason he considered the dangerous Sorcerer/Curse above Gojo and Yuta. He’s a monster that only cares about himself, and does whatever he pleases with nothing holding him back, no matter what happens to anyone else.

Gojo was sealed because he could not be like Sukuna.

Like Hana. That being said, I suspect, if Hana is died, Yuji will offer to consume Angel so that they can take on Sukuna together.

RIP Ryu. Sukuna makes him look like small fry by exploiting the biggest weakness of his CT: blitzing him before it finishes charging up. It's funny cause Yuta was going to use the same strategy but was convinced to have a beam showdown instead.

drat rip Ryu choked on his final sweet.
I'm not misreading composition am I? it looks like Ryu deliberately moved from his building rise location compared to Uro who freaked out, dunno if it was to seek him it intentionally but it seems like it. It seemed inevitable Sukuna was gonna just murder one of the Awakened sorcerers to remind is how absurdly dominant he is even among old sorcerers.

he definitely went to sukuna rather than the other way around

Very cool chapter, I really need to restart the culling game for a full reread soon.

So does Sukuna get any buff from the bath right now? It seems like he has higher output now but the official t/n makes it sound like the bathing process will take ten months. Unless this is supposed to be telling us ten months has past.

Okay so rereading it seems like the "vessel" word they are using here refers to the physical bath itself soaking not to the vessel for Sukuna I guess. I had read "family treasure" as a poetic reference to a sorcerer.

Sukuna’s primary buff would be Megumi no longer lowering his output. Kenjaku implied he can take his original form again or something as well.

I think this is hands down the best binding vow in the whole series. But also terrible because the current hosts are siblings.

Oops, I missed the previous chapter so I have to go back and say I really liked Kenjaku's explanation of getting the power to create a big dumb unstoppable thing from making a binding vow to be the one to stop the dumb unstoppable thing.
