Also, found this comment about the ending for JJK; not sure how much I like it, but the cooking is something fierce!

So, as someone who's only keeping up with JJK through your videos, here is my prediction for the end of JJK with everything you've said and everything I've gleaned about Gege Akutami from the events of the story:
The main throughline of JJKs story is that the world rewards selfishness and punishes virtue. Those who have good intentions either live to see them twisted or never live to see them come about; as Jujutsu Sorcerers, their purview is curses, so they live cursed lives and die cursed deaths. NO ONE gets out unscathed, and victories can only ever be pyrrhic.
Therefore, all the sorcerers battling Sukuna will fail. The ones who fight Sukuna for their own selfish reasons will survive, and any who enter the battle to protect another will die by Sukuna's hands, but NONE of them will be able to stop Sukuna from channeling all the souls of Japan into Lord Tengen. And Lord Tengen will enter the battle with Sukuna, but it's not going to go how Sukuna imagines it will. Either Sukuna's first attack will wipe out Tengen, a barely alive Yuji running on pure spite will sucker punch and kill Tengen to prevent Sukuna from getting what he wants, or all the souls of Japan will impart so much cursed energy onto Tengen that he evolves to the next state of being (I.E. He dies)
Any way you slice it, Sukuna does not get what he wants, because he has inherited Kinjaku's Will. He is fighting for what Kinjaku wanted, and what KINJAKU wanted will turn out to be the final death of Tengen. Through his unethical experiments in the past, it will be revealed that Kinjaku learned the great secret of the Jujutsu World: that Lord Tengen is the true origin of all curses. His barriers do not protect the human world from curses, but rather TRAP the cursed energy humans give off and allow curses to form in the first place, along with Jujutsu. And this is a known secret to the great families of the Jujutsu world, but they have done nothing about it because Jujutsu gives them power, allows them to selfishly lord over others, so rather than end Tengen they have been feeding him Star Plasma Vessels in order to keep things how they are and retain control. Kinjaku learned this, and has been selfishly fighting all this time to spite them and end their reign.
So by all of this coming to fruition, by Lord Tengen being vanquished, all curses and cursed techniques fade away. The souls pumped into Lord Tengen are returned to their rightful bodies, all Jujutsu Sorcerers lose the powers they have honed and cultivated for millenia, and all Cursed Spirits vanish (including Sukuna). He got his final battle, but it was with the other sorcerers that lead him to this place, because his fight with Lord Tengen wasn't for him and so it ends in a way he didn't want. And now the world is left to pick up the pieces of what's left after the greed and selfish desires of a few caused suffering to so many for thousands of years, and the last sorcerers left alive must grapple with the fact that with this revelation, they know that all the friends they've ever lost to the battle with Curses died for nothing.
Mark my words, JJK is going to have a supremely unsatisfying ending that dashes the hopes of those who fight for others and makes you question if any of this was worth it. Because Gege Akutami hates the world, himself, and all the readers of his manga."
