Jujutsu Kaisen Discussion Page #1

There's motion lines around him indicating movement plus Maru notes Tsurugi isn't aiming at him

They aren't in the same position after the explosion either
Originally they were upside down and now they were on normal level

Everything points to Tsurugi doing the slash
So Yuta Upscale
The roots have retracted, they're still in the same spot. Unless we're assuming Tsurugi swung, somehow completely missed Maru and only hit cursed spirits, then assumed the same exact stance and position which would just be strange
 
No. Btw Maru is tanking hits from Rikurugi effortlessly Maru > Yuta too
Maru was bleeding from his hits
Plus Rika was playing and Maru never landed a single attack on bro

Sendai Yuta sure but not prime Yuta
We won't see a single trace of Tsurugi's attack, and what's more, Maru won't even mention it (one of the biggest attacks in this verse), right?
Single trace of what
Maru literally notes he's not swinging at him, Rika notes the move that Tsurugi is going to use is dirty and there's motion lines around Tsurugi when he attacks

What's more we see rubble falling after the explosion
 
何を狙っている is the raws
狙って means aim
Went back and checked—well, it does mean “what you are aiming for” contextually (what you are trying to do), not literally aiming at a target. Also, Maru’s statement doesn’t make sense if Tsurugi were aiming at curses, since he hadn’t taken a stance yet, so he wouldn’t know what he would be aiming at. Contextually, this suggests that Maru is questioning what Tsurugi’s aim or motive is with that cursed tool, since he doesn’t know what ability or power it has. As many people have already pointed out, he hasn’t swung the sword. The surrounding destruction seems to be Maru undoing his cursed technique because the stress from cursed spirits dying around him was too much.

Nope they were upside down this is inarguable;

After the explosion they were on the ground

Note Swshh SFX for the ground flipping back into place and reinforced concrete (which comes from buildings) falling down?

Missed Maru? He wasn't aiming at him in the first place

This is too much incredulity for my liking
We see Yuji and Tsurugi side by side with motion lines on Tsurugi end

Rika notes the move Tsurugi is going to do is dirty and We literally hear Maru telling the cursed spirits not come near them

And flipping the world back to position doesn't break buildings

Hell after Maru asked Tsurugi what he's aiming at we see a look of realisation and him turning back to see the cursed spirits

Just because two characters are shown side by side does not mean they both need to be doing the same thing. Tsurugi has not swung his sword at all. Maru has zero way of knowing what Tsurugi is aiming for, as you claim, since Tsurugi has not even taken a stance yet. Maru then turns back to look at the cursed spirits, which distracts him, and only after that does Tsurugi take a form to attack. That alone debunks the idea that Maru thought Tsurugi was aiming for the curses, since Tsurugi did nothing to indicate that. Yuji destroys the cursed spirits, Maru gets stressed as a result, and we clearly see his cursed technique being undone while Tsurugi is still in his stance. The panel flipping back does not change Maru’s position, so Tsurugi should also remain in the same position, and I do not see how that has anything to do with the argument here.

Yeah, them flipping orientation kills the argument that Tsurugi "never moved". Like 90% chance he caused one of those two mass deaths of Cursed Spirits on purpose, in order to disturb Maru's third eye.
 
It's a natural progression of events
This panel comes after he asked that question

So I didn't mix up anything
You did though because that statement was before he indicated anything so obviously it's not contextually talking about aiming as literal.

Maru also didn't got affected by flipping so don't see why Tsurugi should be and even if why can't he just land and get into the same position?

Okay so what are the motion lines for?
What does motion lines indicate in manga?

It doesn't he was above the buildings and now he's below
Basic logic tells us their position changed

Also what's your argument for reinforced concrete to falling down?
Him flipping it back destroyed some buildings as well?

Maru and Tsurugi both were in flipped position due to his CT?
Maru flipping didn't indicated him turning upside down and same goes for Tsurugi. By your Logic Tsurugi and Maru needs to be flipped and his trees shouldn't exist logically but it's a different case. Both were fine

Bad news for you. The entire atmosphere and spectacle of this scene is solely due to the SSK, a crucial weapon, that Tsuruki is holding. And because you missed the plot, you're ignoring how this sword and Tsuruki's increased speed quickly end the fight, focusing all your attention on the explosion. The scene is very simple. Tsuruki pulls out a powerful weapon. Maru is surprised. Maru is also surprised by the large number of cursed spirits and warns Itadori, who arrives without knowing who he is. Itadori cleans up. Maru is distracted and attacked by Tsuruki. It's easy to understand. Are we reading the same manga?

Are we????

True
Because why would Rika call out Tsurugi for being nasty?
Or does Rika know Yuji is going to Cut up the cursed spirits and Maru didn't know?

When they flip do reinforced concrete fall down from it?
They were upside down above the roofs of buildings

When they flipped reinforced concrete fell down
Why weren't they "flipped" into position?

Hell where did the reinforced concrete come from then?

Because SSK can project CE slashes that's why it's crucial
 
No. Btw Maru is tanking hits from Rikurugi effortlessly Maru > Yuta too
Effortlessly is a stretch when he clearly takes damage and bleeds every time he's hit
Also its pretty amazing that Rika can output that much strength with JUST Cursed Energy when we know SSK has no CT and CTs are far more efficient and powerful.
And we also know that Rika on her own isn't nearly as strong as Yuta and Rika together.
So while Idrc about the scaling chain as of now, you can't act like any of this shines a poor light on Yuta's strength in anyway.

Okay. Maru ~ Yuta then
 
I personally feel like it's pretty obvious that one of them was caused by Tsurika, also did Tsurugi even get a fully awakened heavenly restriction cus the translation I read said he just increased his speed at the cost of power, since power doesn't matter if her has the Split-Soul. Modulo Yuji looks handsome
 
You all would see motion lines and tell me with a straight face that someone didn't move

For shame
His action was to cut Maru. and he did it. It's just that because it happened at that exact moment, Yuji's Dismantle ended up between the pages.
Therefore, it remained in the same position after the Dismantle page. 😓

Concrete part seems to damage from the Dismantle passing through idk as you should already know and I already mentioned Tsurugi and Maru position was not changed
Anyway it doesn't narratively makes sense Tsurugi fires a big blast like that and Maru never makes a note of it. And didn't question why next attack was weak or why he is undoing his transformation or using that attack on Maru himself. Lol
 
Black Flash on command was not expected for Yuji. Or maybe he's just perpetually locked in.

Dabura really is just a toddler playing in the sand right now, realizing just one of his reversals, possibly both.

I hope Maru is okay

I really liked this latest chapter

Edit: Spelling correction
Dabura is deadass using Mahoraga to farm EXP right now. He's having the time of his life.

Please even you don't believe that
Why didn't you say the same from Yuji

We see two explosion separated from each other and you expect me to believe Yuji sent multiple dismantles?
