Finally a thread! Ive always wanted to make a Juju thread, but even here it only started getting popular after the anime hit its stride, (though it was mostly :effort: on my part.)

I think it only counts if Megumi had exorcized and controlled Mahoraja. Megumi can bring in other people into the initial taming but if the shikigami is defeated by another it nullifies the technique. But that might be a good point. A dead shikigami empowers another, so all 9 into mahoraga might make an already Gojo-level threat even stronger.


Really sucks about that false memories spoiler, unless its a fakeout. please be a fakeout.

Gotta show off Okkotsu, though outside of Rika hes not much fun, just being inhumanly strong.
Sukuna smiling is never a good sign.

Oh no he doesnt care a single bit about Yuji.
If Yuji dies he can just go back to waiting, Sukuna is a very patient oppurtunist and puts his whims and curiosity above all else. If he gets to incarnate in yujis flesh thats a plus but so far hes shown a completely nonchalant approach, and keeps things as is because its more convinient.

Jogou I want to say was confirmed as the strongest of the disaster curses and they're a cut above every actual cursed spirit or fleshed curse shown in the series so far that isn't Sukuna. I know Okkutsu gets played up a lot but I'm not actually sure he could've taken Jogou or Mahito due to general incompatibility in techniques (Jougou being able to just poo poo out massively powerful heat AOEs that even the Zenin frameskip poo poo can't effectively dodge, and Mahito being effectively invulnerable to anyone whose technique can't damage his soul). Jougou kinda hilariously gets humiliated in every straight up fight he has outside of him stopping by to hurt all our favorite charcters, because he ends up fighting the two characters shown so far who're capable of just overhand dunking on him- Gojo and Sukuna.

Okkotsu got the "jesus christ can you feel that" "I can taste that" panels, same as gojo, same as sukuna.
He's undoubtedly part of the power ceiling, and its been shown that without trickery or several centuries of sorcery knowledge you just cant win in a straight match against someone like that.

Called it. Though it was pretty obvious.

gently caress yes Maki, kill them all. rip and tear, until it is done.

But I want to know the specifics, did makis restriction become like Toji's or did something else get passed on?


E:oh i just noticed, Mai made her a sword. but did Maki also get powered up herself in the process of Mai dying? hmmmmmmm

MonsterEnvy posted:

Toji also has no defence against Domains. Not that he really needed it, as only Curses can use them semi regularly. There are two known Sorcerers that can use Domain Expansion and one them is incomplete and the other is a freak.

It still makes Toji like 95th percentile in the Juju world. He isnt able to beat the pinnacle of sorcery but then again, how many can.

Does what Ranka say confirm that Toji could've massacred the entire Zenin clan any time he wanted to but decided against it?Guess we gotta wait for the official translation.

Toji made his name as a mercenary/hitman, hunting and assassinating Juju Sorcerers was his specialty. He must have gotten several requests for the heads of the zenin clan, and refused.

gently caress THEM UP MAKI

Yeah a domain is tardis like in that the inside can be any size you wish, so long as you can pull it off. He cant visualize that so he needs the gym as a crutch.
Sukuna's domain has a tradeoff where he forgoes the barrier in exchange for massive real-world range.

I like there's an in-universe explanation for doing it. The more gimmicky domains got power crept out of existence and the people with weirder powers getting ignored in favor of people with more straightforward powers and it makes sense considering who's in charge of the Jujutsu world. Now the current chaos is allowing them all to come back and flourish.

I really hope we get a Reggie flashback, he's too good of a character to never see again.

Also everything Takaba says is gonna be a bitch to translate.


I dont think its hard to translate as its just impossible , as people outside of japan just lack the frame of reference understand his deal.
Hes a walking reference to japanese comedic acts.

Okkutsu out here murking special grade (I'm assuming) domain-welding ancient sorcerers without breaking a sweat. Meanwhile Yuji got his rear end kicked by a grade 1 whose only been a sorcerer for 3 weeks and Megumi barely won vs Reggie who doesn't even have a domain.

But Okkutsu isn't the MC anymore and building him up like this means he's giving off too many defeat flags. Maybe he'll lose to fake Geto to show off how powerful brainy is?



I mean the deal with Kenjaku has never been strength but that theyre ancient and they have more tricks and knowledge than practically anyone alive.

Hell kenjaku already outplayed Gojo and plunged all of japan into the culling game. We dont need more proof, Its clear theyre second only to sukuna in terms of being a threat.
