Sukuna's a dick but he's was spitting straight facts this chapter.

The lawyer is dead, sucks to see him go. So it's now up to Itadori to deal with Sukuna? I doubt he can manage Sukuna on his own.
I want Kugisaki back, she should be able to deal some decent damage to Sukunas soul with her cursed technique. -

Like I still can;t believe that some really powerful people are already off the board.
My one question is, when does Megumi's soul make a move? Does Itadori do his special grade curse technique of making his soul remember him as his brother?
But then again, he fought his sister and his soul barely did anything.
In comparison Geto was able to try and choke himself out. His father did the same.
So Chekov's gun says, his soul will be lynchpin in beating sukuna. I just don't understand why Yuuji would be the only one he came through for.Why not Gojo or his sister?
-
I mean it wasnt really his sister.
I did want something with Gojo tho.
-
You know what would be funny, if Itadori's CT was the ability to use the CT of those that consider him family. And by the end of the fight with Sukuna he be using Boogie Woogie, 10 Shadows, Piercing Blood and Judgement.
-
But then who has the “memory rewrite” ability? The grandpa?
-
@kevo_koma unless Yuji pulls a naruto talk jutsu I don't see megumi pushing through for him. But it's still shounen, so who knows? The theory of Yuji finding a way to cage Sukuna again still stands and there's a chance that all we'll get from Megumi is his last words before dying seeing how his mind and body are completely fucked. That, or he'll be the only one to live out of the four (like Gege said) and Yuji cages Sukuna back into himself again and dies with Sukuna with him.
Come to think of it in retrospection, Megumi was...pretty underdeveloped compared to Yuji huh? Even compared to Gojo and Maki. I guess this was the character development for him but then the series is also ending so I don't know where he is supposed to go from here.
-
That epic ending got ruined for me by instagram
-
I still remember the end of gojo and sukuna's fight being ruined for me by microsoft edge of all things because the browser have a news segment(that is your front page the first thing you open your browser) that is catered to your browsing cookie and they decided to put the headline of the conclusion of the leaks by a wannable gaming journalist site in my front page. Like holy shit I wanted to burn the entire world down at that moment.

Yuji's humanity rubbing on the Main Villain is not an idea I hate for a conclusion
-
Would you recommend the manga or the anime for a starter?
-
@Jabra anime simply because the animation is top of the line and the highest standard that the industry has right now in japan. It's more of an experience than anything else.
Manga if the only thing that matters is story.
-
the action scenes just aren't as good in the manga
-
Gege is good at some action scenes, but not really great. As always I would advice checking out the original
But the anime adaptation is both faithful and beautifully animated. Watch the anime then jump into the Culling games with the manga.

God I love domain expansions

this is just unlimited blade works but alot more broken
also kenjaku going out like that is stupid

not gonna lie, his "fight" with the comedian is the greatest Manga moment I have ever read.
I also love that Kenjaku also enjoyed
Its the most unique final boss fight I have ever seen
-
@kevo_koma oh yeah definitely. I loved it.
It's both different and unique. But Kenjaku's role in the overarching plot is so prominent and important that it feels weird for him to go like that. What about his involvement with Yuji's past? How's that going to be answered? -
Now that's a cheat
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1020004 -
Keep wittling away!!!
Nice sneak attack by maki. Anything goes!
Been enjoying the last batch of chapters. Yuji + group vs Sukuna is easily >>>Gojo vs Sukuna at this point for me. It's been a complete 180 in quality imo. I think the biggest contributor to this is the fact that the peanut gallery had to disperse to actually go fight and we're actually getting a banger of fight instead play-by-play commentating for 75% of the battle.Pull yourself together Megs!!!
-
I havent touched the manga since December and just read the last couple of chapters up to the latest, but I m kind of out of loop what is happening.
-
its ending soon that's for sure this is the equivalent of the muzan fight in KnY
-
@zeltrax225
Valid comparison but Suckuna did more things than wave bladed tentacles everywhere. -
megumi is going to be the equivalent of whatshername poison and will deus ex machina Sukuna whenever convenient and they'd win.
is what I hope will not happen but the final transformation of Sukuna will happen when the merger happens which is really the equivalent of the giant baby monster in KnYman this reminds me of how Muzan was such a huge letdown
at least with Sukuna we get Gege having a boner for him and Gojo did lose to him so he has proved his threat. hopefully he won't job in stupid ways -
Considering his reign of terror him losing in a stupid way would be the most fitting way for him to go out.
-
Just do it Gege, make Suckuna kill them all and win.
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1020299 -
What happened to the art in the middle of the chapter?
Was Gege late, or is it a stylistic choice, I cannot tell tbh.
Sukuna, still toying with them is something I'm on board with, but that he wasn't toying with Gojo goes against everything we know.Makes me wonder how they will hold up against once he takes everything serious.

I hope this doesn't mean the battle's gonna be extended for too much longer :(. They've chiseled away at Sukuna long enough imo, although I recognize Sukuna really hasn't used his full arsenal yet.

The Strongest Grade 1
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1020389 -
Currently hoping this fight can get wrapped up in no more than another volume's worth of chapters tbh. It's starting to get a little too lengthy. Or at least hop to hakari vs Uraume for longer than a couple pages to shake things up a bit.
-
I had slight trouble following the fight, even though I can gather it's a collection of speed blitzes.
What strikes me as odd is that Sukuna has this sudden realization that Maki is the most fascinating foe he's faced this side of Gojo, proclaims this is the first time he has to prove something, this is jujutsu vs physical prowes. . .and the very next page he hits Maki with a Black Flash and. . .this is it? Or at least, the sudden cut to Kusakabe going "I'm the only one left!" really seems to point towards Maki being done.
Now, I'm not saying she can't come back later (like Yuji will probably, maybe even Yuta), but it felt a bit weird to build up Sukuna's excitement and have the ending to the fight be on the very next page.
(BTW, Sukuna has to constantly keep his heart beating after Maki's sneak attack, or did I not understand that exchange?)

I took that as the same as how Kaidou was with Luffy before he sent him down from Onigashima.
We know he was not fully going all out. But then Maki inexplicably made him go all out.
He just got so excited, that he ended up ending the fight early.
But yeah, Maki is coming back. A black flash isn't enough to keep someone with a heavenly restriction down.
I think one of the biggest benefits of making that pact is that you basically become almost invulnerable. -

I like that the author is calling out other series like tenjho tenge and eye shield 21
And this guys ability is basically just High-Fi Rush
-
Now gege's pulling in geto's former no-namer squad?!?! Miguel's pretty much the only one I remember vaguely tbh.
At this point the Sukuna fight is officially too long for me (though tbh it was already too long several chapters ago). pulling in the c- to d-listers now :/.I wish gege would jump to the hakari fight for a bit of a refresher at this point. Break the cycle!

Everybody was Black Flash fighting
https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/viewer/1020743 -
That's some really bad translation, WTF. You don't have to know japanese to get that Gojo didn't say that.
-
Out of curiosity, can you explain? It's all JJK fans keep saying weekly without examples. Vocal readers seem more focused about being a QA or editor about the translations instead of talking about the actual chapter, which I think is a little ironic? Okay, people are expressing dissatisfaction, but to go spam Viz to get the translator fired over it when there's a whole team involved, that's the WTF part for me.
I'm a casual reader and I'm not going to pretend I know Gojo to the hip to realize something was off in his 2-page exposition to the reader about why he can't use Black Flash.

I think the first three pages of dialogue felt waaaaay to clunky, like I don't remember a Viz JJK chapter like this.

Nothing new, MHA's fandom harassed CCC's out of twitter because they thought he was biased against Endeavor.
-
Black Flash doesn't even make sense and even Gege made fun out of it being exponential rather than multiplicative. Why do people even care what Gojo's exact words are, he just said he wasn't able to do it consecutively for reasons.
-
The thing is we know that Gojo can use Black Flash (https://jujutsu-kaisen.fandom.com/wiki/Black_Flash#Satoru_Gojo for reference if you forgot). The last chapter (translated by the same person btw) ended with a reference of Gojo regaining his reverse cursed technique after using black flashes. And it was referenced again in this chapter.
It's like page 1 was translated by someone who has absolutely no knowledge about what happened the previous page (last page of the previous chapter) or the following pages. Even if he hates the manga, that's no excuse to be so wrong when he contradicts himself a page later.
Go read TCB scans. I normally would not recommand the unofficial scans when official ones are available but it's necessary in this case.
JJK's explanations are already hard enough to follow. We don't need stupid nonsensical translations on top of it.
-
yeah, the JJK translator is really bad at his job
-
why do i pay for this
also viz u dont have to constantly try to one up tcb yes we know u read the unofficial translations yes we know u have to sound different for the sake of sounding different
no it sucks urs isnt bettertcbscans nah i'd win got meme-fied and is now a widely used internet catchphrase its sad you'll never reach that level of fame but its ok, just do your job its not your fault you have to release later than the pirates but at the very least stop fucking it up by trying to be avertly creative. its dumb
-
You all seem to be native Japanese speakers when you bitch so much about a translation.
Sure it didn’t read well and somehow doesn’t fit what we know of Gojo, but that’s it.
I hope this won’t be come another Caleb situation.
