Momjaku has to be one of the weirdest real plot twists out there. Like gege heard about one piece's crocomom theory and decided it had to be real.

brothers trope, but this time bruh is leftovers. but he's actually more like a twin nephew

so Sukuna used to look like Yuji, hates Yuji, now trying to rip his face off. i get it. he used to be hot :(


There is an entire fandom for current Sukuna in terms of looks, even though to me he looks like Goro from Mortal Kombat, so I don't think looks ar ehis problems. Besides, dudes gives strong volcel energies, when he mentions eating people it's not a euphemism.

I honestly love the bit of editorializing the translator does on these raw leaks cause it gets me even more hype to read “YUJI HITS HIM WITH ANOTHER!!!!” And “Kusakabe just starts throwing hands”

It's basically what the guy who shares the leaked raws on Twitter says but collected on imgur, if I understand correctly. People thought he'd been arrested for a while too lol.

this is pretty much what i'd hoped for - not only is sukuna's mojo being suppressed by the black flashes, but he can't psyche himself up for the fight because he hates yuji so loving much he's not having fun anymore

one thing that stood out to me with the better scans is how much yuji's eyes/expression look like gojo's. not to suggest there's any real narrative connection there, but it's cool particularly if you consider those shots as being from sukuna's perspective

what i'm saying is give me yuji doing the honored one pose

What did Ino do with the Nanami-blade near the end? Just..drop it on Sukuna? Did it do anything?

I think He threw it and hit him in the chest with it, providing just the tiniest of distractions for another black flash to hit him

Great chapter, I think all of this is going to be a blast to read through on a re-read despite how the pacing has felt release to release.

I don't think a re-read can save huge chunks of the Sukuna fight and the absolutely bonkers narrative choices made, but hey, Yuji finally paying off and popping off on Sukuna is very satisfying.

While I think it would be an in universe bad thing, I really hope that Sukuna being absolutely bodied by Yuji leads to Sukuna having to Die Mad.

Kenjaku is nothing if not 100% dedicated to progressing his research with a hands on approach. Taking backshots for science :science:

They go by faster though. It's really easy to scroll by boring chapters when you're just re-reading something rather than just having it sit as the one chapter you get that week.
