Tosk posted:That said, Gojo can literally teleport, why doesn't he use that to get space for himself to charge up Hollow Purple? We saw Mahoraga and Sukuna both move extremely quickly at Shibuya but surely that's better than trying to charge it up in the middle of a 3v1 melee. I do not believe Gojo can afford to give Sukuna space. If Sukuna is allowed to be by himself while Gojo takes time to charge up Hollow Purple, Sukuna can probably set up better countermeasures and attempt to heal himself. Gojo stopped Sukuna from hiding earlier in the chapter because of this possibility. Julias posted:Also not every popular manga needs to be a 300+ chapter long epic. True, Death Note only needed 108 chapters and AoT had 139 chapters

Do we think Yuji's still gonna eventually learn Sukuna's cursed technique as hinted early in the manga? Supposedly his body should've naturally implemented it from incarnating Sukuna for that long.

forget getting to Sukuna’s trump card, it’s looking like we won’t even make it past 10 Shadows. Was it a misplay by Sukuna to lose Agito like that or was it intentional? Destroyed shikigami can’t be resummoned and there were some high value summons in there. Powers are inheritated, so the plan may be Big Marohaga. Or he intends to wield the 10 treasures himself like with the elephant. And did Marohaga just use cleave?

Kusakabe said Gojo's won, so this is clearly the point where Sukuna reveals his Cursed Technique and puts a wrench into everybody's celebration. I can't see things going differently, to be honest, although as long as Gojo manages to make him leave Megumi's body in some way, he'll have gotten his win.

Looking forward to seeing the translated scans because having to read the text separately for such a narrative heavy chapter was slightly distracting, but Gojo really gave it to Sukuna this time. He's obviously about to pull out the reversal but I'm not sure if he'll kill Gojo, though I expect him to win the fight. I'm hoping Mahoraga is out of the story for good though, the adaptation bullshit is a boring trope at this point and I'd much rather see Sukuna and Gojo beating the poo poo out of each other again.

it's an odd sequence of events. kenjaku is the real threat, but no one left standing is terribly invested in fighting him. rather, they all loving hate sukuna.

Yeah I'm guessing the last finger comes into play and Sukuna eats it, it fully heals and refreshes him, and he pulls out the full range of his own techniques.

I think that particular twist is unlikely because if I remember correctly, just before this fight Sukuna was hypothesizing with Uraume that Gojo probably has the last finger. It seems like Gojo being freed was somewhat outside the scope of Kenjaku's plans and I doubt he would have held back a finger if he thought it would guarantee a win here, because if Sukuna were to lose outright, which we might not expect to happen as viewers outside the narrative but which looks like a total coin toss in the world of JJK itself, Kenjaku would be turbo hosed.

Just to clarify Does Sukuna classify as a curse now? I just wonder if he's at risk of getting eaten if he loses his body. I doubt that's the path ahead but I'm really surprised we haven't had any interference yet

Shinjobi posted:Just to clarify He's not reaaally a curse, but he blurs the lines so much that I would consider him as such. In his original life he transcended his humanity to become a being of pure malevolence like some curses are. Gege uses fairly vague language around what he calls sukuna, he's never outright called him a cursed spirit, but he hasn't outright stated what he really is at this point. It's good enough for me to say yeah, he's vulnerable to CSM. I mean, Kenjaku's got Tengen on a string now and the manga really likes flirting with the idea of Tengen becoming some sort of cursed entity if she were to evolve/transcend. I'd like to think CSM is being used in some capacity to control Tengen.

Does Kenjaku not still have Mahito pokeballed away somewhere or is he fully out of the picture?

Pootybutt posted:Does Kenjaku not still have Mahito pokeballed away somewhere or is he fully out of the picture? I believe he expended his spirit to extract idle transformation for that single use. Uzumaki burns through whatever spirits are used in it. As for commanding Mahito's spirit to do it for him comes down to whether Mahito had the skill to pull it off. Only Kenjaku using idle transformation directly with his own status as the second best barrier user would get the result he wanted. Lamebot fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Sep 7, 2023 |

Whether or not Sukuna counts as a cursed spirit could be a key part of whatever happens. Maybe Kenjaku through their recent associations has tested it out on the sly and finds yes, he is, while Sukuna is confident in his origins and thinking he's not, and that pulls a trick later.

My guess: Sukuna discovers that with all of the shadow shikigami destroyed they all form together to make a super ultimate one that kills Gojo. Neither Gojo nor Sukuna expect it because nobody had ever tamed Mahoraga to figure out the "totality" thing applies when they're all tamed/destroyed.

We do know that Sukuna has some tricks. Namely his Fire Arrow he used against Jogo at the least, whatever it was that Yaorozu gave him, and lastly transforming into his original form as it's stated he is fully capable of doing so, but has yet to do that because of something that he is planning for the future.

Pierson posted:It's also heavily implied that his fourth technique is a divine lightning arrow: https://www.reddit.com/r/Jujutsushi/comments/v5joob/sukunas_last_hidden_cursed_technique_will_be_a/ which I was assuming would be used against Kashimo ("lol your skill is lightning that's cute, eat Literally Vajra") but could be here. With All these shadow creatures dying I'd like to think the ace-in-the-hole Sukuna will pull out would be related to Megumi's Cursed Technique and whatever giant skeleton is associated with the mythological ancestor of the Zennin. But I also think that would require a domain expansion and both of these guys have given themselves so much brain damage neither could pull one off. I agree that Kenjaku is going to stay away from this fight because if Gojo is still breathing he won't risk himself; so I'm assuming Sukuna pulls off his likely electrical attack because the story established that Kashimo's also has something comparable to a "guaranteed hit" property despite not being a domain-based attack. Sukuna's biggest problem is that his attacks won't hit Gojo normally unless it is his own DE, Domain amplification, or Mahoroga doing the work.
