Yeah, I feel like even without his curse technique he would still want to be there for Yuji.

Exactly, he doesn't have to fight, I would imagine he would at least want to support Yuji and give advice and stuff like that. Like if he can't be there for him in a fight, he can still be there for him emotionally and mentally.
Unless he appears fully recovered and ready to provide the assist in the fight, then Gregory fumbled a dope character.
Like, imagine the heroes are pushed to the wall, Sukuna is right up in Yuji's face ready to body him, then we see a pair of hands clap in a panel and then BAM!! Black Flash to the face as Todo comes in to save his brother, recovered thanks to his soul being healed somehow. It's Cope I know, but damn is it some cool giga copium.

Imagine JJK if it didn't sideline characters as much as it did and had more chapters
Then again, those two probably go hand-in-hand

And it's not like Todo is some whatever character, he's a dope AF character that the fans and the MC have a bond with and is still alive, Greg could have done more with him but just... didn't. Toriyama level sideline bro...

The Todo and Choso shenanigans and bickering while Yuji in the back trying to calm them down or laughing at their shenanigans would be legendary, and by the end of the story Choso finally accepts Todo as a brother. This would be peak.

It's something I both love and hate in Gege's writing. They are ruthlessly efficient in their writing that gives us a lot of peak content w/little to no fluff or needless filler. The drawback being various characters and plot points get rushed conclusions or even forgotten. I was and still am super curious by what Gojo meant when describing Hanami as a "..former spirit.." Are there supernatural entities that exist outside of cursed energy/jujutsu? Maybe there made still related but formed from positive energy but than became corrupted? Could this lead to a faction of sorcerers that focus their abilities mostly/solely through positive energy?
To be fair, I need to remind myself that this is Gege's story so they can do what they want w/it. I do find that everything has been truly near perfection (like consistent 9/10 for me).
Still, I would definitely have loved to see more of what this world offers. I wish we got more of the characters like Junpei, Nanami, the Kyoto students, Todo etc. Todo does particularly sting not only for being such a dope dude but the main story implying he'll be back after working on developing his skills given his current condition only to never show up be heard from again. Then the light novel revealing what happened (granted, I didn't read it but heard from someone) just feels insane, even for Todo.

Personally I would like to see some short stories of Todo and other side characters instead of Todo coming to fight Sukuna and gege killing him off so that he can give more damage to Yuji mentally.

do you not remember when sukuna made a fingergun and we got 30 chapters of Baki-esque exposition where Gojo recounted the entire history of Buddhism in the JJK universe and how it relates to sorcery's abilities out loud?JJK scalers try not to argue with actual Buddhists about using Buddhism in powerscaling challenge: impossible.

Some fans tries to upgrade the verse with Buddhism since Gege loves to take the religion as reference for a lot of things. But some people take this too literal and end up with things like "The void that separates the soul to the reality", something that is too speculative and uses more headcanon than actual canon

I mean the whole argument falls apart when JJK explicitly states that characters have souls which is a huge contradiction to all of Buddhism
- 10,177

Yeah, ik, and then they argue that souls in JJK arent actual souls
And im not joking. Thats a real argument used

I actually agree, if Gregorious killed my boy, I'd drop kick the shit out of that damn cat. But if he did live that battle, that would be goated imo.

Jujutsu Kaisen Hax/Ability Upgrade Thread Pt. 3.5
Both the scan I posted and the RAWS support the notion of Tengen being the founder of Japanese Buddhism. No, the manga scan just says he spread it, not that he founded it. Huge difference. The anime says it was neither. It's not, though; as I explained above, Buddhism was not predominant in...
Literally an argument where a mfing JJK powerscaler is trying to “correct” an actual Buddhist about the teachings of the religion they study.
Like they be pulling out all the quotes and literature because they’re trying to correct actual misinformation about their religion.
Wild the audacity JJK scalers have to be perfectly honest. Mfers will literally be explained in depth about how they’re misunderstanding a religion by a religious person themselves and still try to argue against them for the sake of vs wiki scaling.

Can't wait for powerscalers to start arguing live on tv with actual scientists about how they are wrong just so their favorite character can solo another verse.

I think you guys mean PariNirvana, Para Nirvana doesn’t exist.
PariNirvana just means Nirvana after Death.
When one becomes enlightened, they retain their physical form, they simply won’t reincarnate anymore.
So, PariNirvana isn’t so much a state or a place or anything like that. It’s more so an event, like a funeral of a Buddha, but it’s considered a good and wonderful thing.

I’m always happy to answer any questions or thoughts people have to the best of my ability.
