Shocked I tell you

Bread Set Jettison posted:

Sorcerer grades are based on “what can you handle” but also politics because Maki is still technically a grade 4, while Noritoshi Kamo is grade 1. Gege wrote it this way on purpose. This system of categorization isn’t good at doing its job.

E: unrelated but it looks like some manga leakers got arrested

Kamo was Semi Grade 1. Which means he got Grade 1 Recommendations, but has yet to prove he can reliably handle himself solo.

It's really good Jogo and Hanami look like Bebop and Rocksteady when facing off against Gojo and then when Jogo casually wipes out Maki, Nanami, and Naobito he looks likes the most stone cold killer ever. It's a neat representation of the power balance going on there.

Jogo giving that trio the wry eye after he mourns Dagon's death. To immediately burning Nanami is still one of my favorite moments in the manga. It's so imposing that they all just barely made it out of Dagon's domain thanks to luck and circumstances and then nothing is there to save them now.

Wednesday leaks are officially dead :(

Not sure if that means we won't be getting scans till Sundays or if groups like TCB will just be a few days later

Maybe no scans this week but someone new will pop up eventually to provide raws. Probably not as early as before though, might be back to late Thursday/early Friday spoilers

Oh. Yuta stands a decent chance of using Nobara's technique, doesn't he? I still think he loses here. There's too many players left on the field outside of this. Maybe Sukuna does the merger or something to get a new body if Megumi gets yanked out.

I was actually curious about how Yuta could use another technique as the sure hit. The fact that it's just a standard function of his domain is crazy because he really can counterpick anyone given enough time to accumulate techniques.

Honestly this is a fantastic chapter.


Edit: Love that Charles' ability got used.

I will say that, while Gege has a problem introducing and dropping a good amount of great characters, this fight has been great in making everything a team effort instead of just powering up Yuji out of nowhere like most Shonen would do. If Yuji does the final blow, it'll be because of the accumulated effort of a bunch of people.

I don't understand how the number of techniques is infinite. Does it mean that he can use the same technical multiple times, but only if he encounters it randomly across different katanas?

This is some good stuff.

Yuta's domain seems ridiculously OP so I'm fully expecting him to eat it within two chapters lol

Yes each sword has a random ability thats used up after 1 use, but the swords infinitely regenerate on the field. You can see he used the sky zone ability + thin ice breaker offensive move twice. I guess this stops him from getting a hold of an OP ability and just cheesing it. It adds an interesting dynamic to the fight choreography if used well by Gege.

Also: Doesn't Yuta or Rika have to eat part of someone (flesh/blood) to get the technique? I forgot the method he used to get copy. If he has Sukuna's technique and that's the case I bet I know where that last finger went!

No, I think he just has to see the technique. He used Cursed voice without eating Inumaki

yeah it was implied that rika eating the space manipulation user's arm fulfilled the condition to copy her technique, but we don't know the full details.

I think the biggest part of why I really love this fight is how up and personal it is. And by that I don't just mean the fact that Yuji and Sukuna hate the poo poo out of each other.
It's that you have these ultimate powerhouses with literal reality-bending powers, and they're not shying away from using them, but the meat and bones of the fight is still close-quarters combat. No DBZ raaaaaaaaaaargh beamspam, these dudes just throwing hands and it owns bones

the "brat" is Yuji, the "cursed brat" is Yuta. not surprised Sukuna doesn't acknowledge both of these two goody two shoes who don't give in to the urges
