That might be the disappointed Yuta fan talking

Though admittedly, I feel absolutely nothing for Yujo
Not really, never liked Yujo, worst decision ever if you ask me. Mix both of the strongest modern sorcerers and create a weakass character.

I just want this manga to end.
 
Seeing the aftermath of Yuta's purple, confirming numerous theories, seeing Yuji and Todo tag team again, seeing Yuji developing his use of Shrine to be basically the SSK, and Sukuna being outsmarted by Yuta with Angel finally showing off why she was a Heian era top tier? What were YOU expecting from this chapter?
Sorry but nothing of this looks as appealing as you make it to be.
 
Best part was Angel, that was good indeed. Although it can lead to some absolutely awful decisions like the **** level acting & Hana holding back.
 
Again, what would be appealing to you if not seeing the MC improve, the villain being outsmarted in realistic ways, and the supporting cast amplifying the MC and playing a substantial role? What are you reading the manga for?
Maybe because we've seen this formula happen within THE SAME FIGHT for months now? 😭

IDK why people are surprised that some people feel indifferent about these chapters, when it's literally been rinse and repeat. I, for one, enjoy these chapters, but it's also a slog, and I want it to end already
 
The only thing I feel different about the latest chapter is that it seems like Sukuna is actually getting close to dying. Last time I thought that was the chapter where Yuji hit his 7 black flashes. Every other chapter it seemed clear he wasn’t going to get pushed too hard or he just straight up wins in that chapter and it was a dude arriving as a cliffhanger.

I find it funny that the one pushing him the most is the one he finds most "boring"

like every time he gets to fight mainly yuji he gets his ass handed to him, be it 7 black flashes in a row right to the soul or having about a dozen dismantles sent straight at his soul which made him throw up his own fingers.

The buildup to Yuji's ascension is one of the things I like. He gradually went from the support to the main course

I'd argue he and Sukuna fighting each other multiple times building up to his awakening is the best part of the arc. Thematically, it beats out Sukuna vs Gojo

I can't get past "The one who will teach you about love is me." I have a very love-hate relationship with Yorozu

what "formula"? With each person who's fought against Sukuna we've learnt more about the characters, seen them improve, learnt more about Sukuna, and the world and the outcome has varied with how much they've been capable of pressing him. Not to mention a drawn out fight like this makes it feel deserved to win whilst keeping Sukuna as the pinnacle of power and not making it seem powercliffed.
 
By the way. Something that I noticed now.
Why does the Gojo profile say that he can cause purple nuke only (Well it doesn't say that but it kinda suggests like it does to me) through externally manifesting blue and red?




While it is true, but not entirely so. For starters, he has also manifested blue and red externally in Goodwill Arc, when preparing purple to fire against Hanami. Never did it explode on its own.
“If I don’t direct it, then I’ll get caught in the unrestrained Purple too…" (Lightning TL)
To be precise, it was to unleash the technique target to an AOE type, unleashing it in a blast type of move.
Nothing really to do with it being externally manifested or not. Because technically speaking, Gojo can do it whilst snapping his finger forward. He could also possibly cause it to explode in mid air after being fired, similar to how his blue and red after being fired, can go and be directed under his control, especially Blue that was kept in existence despite being dormant

AD_4nXcQruqU1DQzMNr5l8OGqGJnu-CqIfa3fJU1EY7oP6lC1kxupKerC9kMtEziWUEhBo2OyQKqhuHrn0liM6kobPXli13MX99xfppBgeeVWOaI7bOgp2Wwddf6ZtHrwZy1vjp9VMhr1O2v9nhrXdpEbg=s320

Lightning:
[VIZ implies that Blue is independent of Satoru’s control. A more accurate translation:

“Beyond the Red that Gojo had released…

…is the continuation of Blue after crushing Agito.”

It’s not that it kept going by itself; Satoru just didn’t deactivate it.]

Although Purple is a far more difficult technique, we do also get to see Gojo change its size after being fired, precisely after hitting Toji, which isn't told to us but something to observe rather.

Although one might argue that there is size inconsistency on Gege's part, this gets proven false given that it wasn't "fixed" IN the volume release nor in the anime which Gege has full control over (Just like how he once didn't want to have the narrator statements in Season 1 anime for people that are watching due to watching experience or whatever his reasoning was for that again) to suggest changes to or fix. And this didn't happen whatsoever, suggesting that this is intentional that gojo can directly manipulate hollow purple after it gets launched.
 


Probably not so important, but Gege states that Black Flash is something that has a "probability element" to it, which again makes it consistent with the fact that Black Flash does too require luck as implied in the manga by other characters, as that's one of the factors for it. Good to have a direct author statement ig.


(ngl I wonder if Gege will make Hakari spam tf out of black flashes like crazy given how his gimmick is luck?)
 
Hakari had better offscreen Uraume at absolute worst because if Uraume shows up in any form to help Sukuna then Hakari is going to become the biggest laughingstock the fandom has ever seen. Bro'd be considered a bigger fraud than Megumi, Sukuna, Hana, ******* everyone combined if he loses a nearly 30 chapter long fight offscreen. Hell, it'd be worse onscreen

Also honestly I don't think more than a chapter would be necessary for the Hakari and Uraume fight. Cause if any more of that is shown its literally just gonna be "oh I have jackpot" "well guess what I'll blast you back with ice" "oh no, no more jackpot. just kidding i got it back" "more ice" rinse repeat
 
Gege definitely kept it off screen because he felt he couldn't make an engaging fight out of immortal punch kick merchant vs ice crowd controller. Understandable but also a whole L

Definitely a whole L if you consider he could've expanded Hakari's arsenal. Let that man fire CE beams with his infinite CE. Reinterpret his technique beyond his domain

Let him summon trains
 
The main issue with Hakari v Uraume is definitely their limited skill sets. Honestly, Gege probably could've just said "oh Hakari advanced his technique during the month of prep" to give him more stuff but they wanted to focus on the Sukuna fight which I can't blame them for. It's the fight against the main villain with pretty much the whole cast (except like half of Kyoto cause I mean wtf they gonna do) being there for it. Cutting to show Uraume and Hakari would probably mess with the flow of it

Him using his Domain elements outside would be cool but that's about it
Having infinite CE doesn't allow you to shoot beams, its having a tremendous amount of output as well.
It's why the only people who could do it are Ryu and Yuta
 
And a lot of domain stuff is set in stone
His domain is to gamble and it has a theme, he can manifest some of that theme outside (The doors) but thats rlly it
His gimmick is hitting hard and immortality
A perfect staller for the Frozen Star

It can if you want to.
We literally see finger bearer spam CE beams.
Also he gets higher output thanks to jackpot tho.
By the way. we still haven't seen jackpot 777. Wonder if that has a special effect never seen or something... Hopefully.
