Chapter 9: Dura Val Bobbidi Mechika, Part 2
no one cares about this flop trash
Woke slop
Gege going full /pol/I can't imagine the typical JJK fan wanting to go through the equivalent of IRL politics/religion in their fighting manga
>>283478664Why does gege always off screen fights
>>283478726Modulo by itself is actually good. But it has no place in being linked to JJK because this really has nothing to do with the source material outside of Yuta's grandkids
This should have just been an original series... I dont think i want yuji and mahito back anymore because the alien stuff are more interesting
You can tell Gege was forced to slap the JJK brand onto it because people won't read it otherwise because this really has no connection to his previous work.
This was such a profound chapter and flashback. What are your thoughts on it?
>>283478934My thoughts is that it should have been an original manga.
>>283478926My concerns came true with this oneIn reality, this is actually a good chapter but the problem is that you can tell Gege wanted it to be an original story so badly but knew it'd flop without the JJK name.He also threw in a flashback panel of Gojo, Yuji, Megumi, Nobara, Yuta, and Maki just to hammer it down that this is a sequel. But not really because none of the original stuff matters because we got aliens with huge political drama.
>>283478934Really good chapter but like the others said. This should've been its own thing. Sorcerers are non existent, same with Curses, the OG cast has yet to be mentioned on what they're actually doing (assuming they're not dead from old age). Even Tsurugi and Yuka felt like an afterthought
>>283478833Should have done like mashima and ONE and just make a new manga instead of relying on the success of the previous one
>>283479059>>283478790makes no sense not to let him do an original manga. like it or not, JJk is a worldwide success, so slapping on "from the creator of Jujutsu Kaisen" would instantly sell it
>Dura got a funeral scene >But not GojoMy sides
>>283478934Hopefully we get a move on soon.
While people say this should've been its own original series, the fact its connected to the JJK universe is wonderful. More worldbuilding is always good.
>>283479408is a flashback on how Aliens decided to invade Earth too much for your small attention span?
>>283479411>More worldbuilding is always good.Can it be called worldbuilding when it's on an entirely different species and planet? The sorcery world is very limited and barren as it in back in JJK.
JJK has ended. it's over. Gojo already said that with his dialogue in the epilogue. this is a different series with different themes. a sequel in the same world where OG characters aren't and shouldn't be relevant. why are people still crying about it?and it's good because we will get some cameos here and there. and it will not disrespect OG cast like Naruto did.
>>283479553>and it will not disrespect OG cast like Naruto did.Gege was smart to make this 80 years into the future where most of the OG cast died
Panda just talked to Tsurugi, is this not a big thing? He's the first of the Tokyo students to make an appearance
>>283478934>Space niggers decided to leave the entire planet move hundreds of thousands of lightyears away because they were forced to give up their land to other space niggers then seethe that earthlings won't just give up land to them
>>283479660He talked to both of them at JJK epilogue
>>283478358I'd read an entire spin-off of this
>>283478358>MizuhoOkay, whose grandkid is this one?
>>283478601>Humans
>>283478601Humans is probably just a bad translation of 'people'
Stop getting mad at shit you've made up
>>283478355Crazy how this small panel changed the whole trajectory on Dabura's character. Now I dont even think he's the main bad guy, I think Mahito might actually be the main villain by the end of this sequel.
>>283479976Yeah, I don't see how any of the Simurians could actually be the villain at this point, even Jabaroma seems like a reasonable sympathetic guy from these flashbacks, despite his creepy villain appearance.
>>283478934I want the triclops twins to spitroast me.t. Tsurugi
>>283478477>>283478508This is an impression Dabura tends to give, even on earth when people met him they immediately felt his presence like that.>>283478540Really cute.>>283478601Always noticeable how often the early translations fail to use Dura's catchphrase.
>>283478750I like the Jabaloma.
>>283478934Thank you for the dump, really liked the chapter.
>>283478601>>283478628This was a really bad transition, there's no impression of time/the duel progressing at all.
>>283478358At least these 4komas are connected to the series, the fuck was up with those 2 chapters of nice prison that had random unrelated 4koma
>>283478601>>283478628>>283478664It didn't look like Dura tried fighting at all given the state of the coliseum
>>283480337It's pretty clear there wasn't actually a duel, Dura let Dabura kill him
>>283478934Well now i'm curious about how what'shisname got the attitude he did after this
>>283479660Panda is awful, even nips dislike him
>>283479411Except it's obviously a completely different manga
>>283480452come on man. Maru was screaming at Dabura for holding back. and why would Dura hold back when losing meant his people losing all of their lands.
>>283480519Yeah, Cross' hatred towards humans really doesn't make sense since the Simurians problems are 100% their own fault, rather than having anything to do with the merger or world cutting slash like people were speculating. It's probably just him being a confused and emotional 19 year old taking his anger out on a group of 'others', in this case, humanity
>>283479553>and it will not disrespect OG cast like Naruto did.Disagree on that, Naruto and Sasuke are the strongest for most of Boruto.
>>283479921Nta but it's ningen, Zamasu used "mortals" in DBS.
>>283479553Cameos are cringe, just make a new manga
I feel like this would have worked better as its own thing. The world building is awful
>Simruians got their own detailed backstory>Dura even got a proper funeral>There's actual lore and worldbuilding >But it's all just on the aliens and not Jujutsu SocietyJust make this an entirely new manga not related to JJK at this point.
>>283480596that's not remotely true and it's not even about strength.Naruto is a bum hated by his moron child. who doesn't even attend his daughter's birthday.Sasuke leaves his only child alone and never visits her or Sakura.and they both get destroyed by bunch of nobodies introduced two minutes ago.
How I wish Kenny got something like this, would've made him feel less anticlimatic instead of dying to a literal joke
>>283479380that's because GODjo isn't dead, retard. he's just biding his time
>>283480888You forgot about him almost murdering his own daughter who was still a small child
>>283480964Yes, 98 year old Gojo is actually hiding in the shadows like Madara
>>283480596>Muh powerlevelsAre we forgetting how much of a losers both Naruto and Aasuke are in Boruto?
>>283479059>>283479176>>283479360It’s a flashback that’s happening on another planet. No shit it isn’t connected to any of the old characters.
The Deskunte Chief looked like he had the Kurama seal on his belly
>Cross is Sukuna if he still had the chance to take the other path>Dura and Dabura are Gojo and Sukuna if they had got the chance to be friends
>"Cross, you're scaring me. You've been staring into nothing for like 38 pages"
>>283481505>Yuka: Oh, Mahito came back and had sex with Tsurugi
>>283480822Agreed, like, I love yuji but him and mahito feel too out place here kekEven Yuka and Tsurugi didn't need to be connected to the boredom yutamaki are
>>283481505You're imagining things, that's your brain tumor messing with your perception of time
>>283481505>"Also, I'm pregnant with your child."
>>283478358Top page. The toppest page.
>>283480888>that's not remotely trueIn all of Boruto before they are nerfed only Momo and Isshiki are stronger than them.>Naruto is a bum hated by his moron childHe isn't a bum and the entire plot of that arc is Boruto understanding Naruto is worthy of his admiration.>Sasuke leaves his only child alone and never visits her or Sakura.It's his way to redeem himself, his self-exile protecting Konoha>and they both get destroyed by bunch of nobodies introduced two minutes ago.They are comically stronger than almost anyone else, only Jigen destroy them and has to strain himself extremely to do that, or use his original body, and even then they're integral to his defeat, with Naruto using his new mode to trounce him and draining all his lifespan.
>>283481061They're both treated as legendary, they have their flaws (owed to Kishimoto self-inserting his issues on Naruto) but even those are portrayed in a noble light (Naruto caring too much for the village, his family for example).
>>283481272Dabura is pretty much Gojo, being the strongest but forced to kill his friend, also him being unable to oppose the higher ups.
>>283481505I bet she already died from the cancer while Cross is still spacing out Get it? Spacing out?
>>283481917>Get it? Spacing out?heh
>>283478355I like the theory of Dabura = sukuna and the sister being Uraume reincarnated
>>283481905Dabura may be the Gojo in terms of sheer power, but Dabura's personality is more Gojo, with how he's a bit laidback and wants to develop the next generation
>>283482011*Dura's personality
I feel like even a Megumi centered manga would've been more preferable than what Modulo is shaping up to be. I just don't give a crap about the aliens.
>>283480337I think that’s kind of the point. It all just happened so fast.
Completely baffled at Gege's decision to name that character Dabura. With his design and aura, he's definitely going to end up as one of the most popular Modulo characters, especially once he gets a chance to actually fight. But searches for the name Dabura are always going to come up as the Dragonball character with how much more popular that series is
>>283482073You really want a manga about that bum?
>>283482109Just google “Dabura JJK”, most people are going to do that.
So mahito is going to ruin everything right
>>283482114Him being the MC would've made him develop as a character, yes. Yuji and Yuta literally took that position away from him.
The flashback is over with Yuji sliced into pieces on the floor and Dabura explaining how he defeat it him, saying he bypassing his RTC+Blood Manipulation combo was truly difficult and praising Yuji saying that he was the strongest that he ever faced
>>283482114Unironically yes.
>>283482157>Yuta literally took that position away from him.Yuta was set to be the protagonist since the early drafts, Yuji actually took that role from megumi since megumi was set to be the one possesed by Sukuna
>>283478934This was a nice chapter. I especially liked the how our initial perception of Dabura was turned upside down. Will be interesting to see how it goes from here, now that he got the main message established with that back story. If it's supposed to go for about half a year, there's still plenty of chapters left to go from here.
>>283482157Too bad yuta sucked
>>283482307>here's still plenty of chapters left to go from here.Yeah, 18.
>>283482307We're at chapter 9 out of like 26? There's still the Mahito stuff too and the cancer and the ring
>>283482307It's going to be rushed as fuck. Should have just skipped all those chapters and just start with the aliens, then meet Yuka and her brother, their fights sucked anyway and their connection to sorcerers is bad You may as well just make Yuka some random Miko
>>283482307It'll be really rushed considering the other subplots that have yet to happen in a span of like 16 chapters left?
>Mahito is going to be the final boss, >he learned how to make a open domain, and he already did a 0,02 seconds expansion in Shibuya. >since he is the embodiment of mankind hatred he actually "resurrects" early than other curses. >and found that the Samurians has a ritual artifact that will allow him to cover the whole planet with Self-Embodiment of Perfection>so plots a conflict between sorcerers and samurians>Sneaky kills Yuji that was already tired and injured after a fighting with Dabura>Dabura can't actually hurt Mahito since he can't attack the soul>But mahito can't kill him either since Idle Transfiguration does work properly in Samurians since their soul shape is different from humans >So Mahito mindbrokes him by reshaping Yuji corpse into the friend he killed in this chapter>The final arc is the Trio (or Quartet?) triying to stop Mahito Ritual since the artifact can also make Idle Transfiguration work in samurians
Potentially>Alien racism >Ring>Cancer>MahitoCan be accomplished under 20 chapters but obviously it'll feel really undercooked
Babykuna soon
>>283478358I will take this crumb of Panda and savor it
>>283480519I think it's supposed to be frustration of running into similar politics shenanigans as they had to endure back home, once they arrived on Earth. We now learned that they aren't nefarious conquerors, so they want to do the right thing, but once again they aren't accepted. He's probably at a point where he'd welcome if shit went awry and Dabura were justified to simply subdue any opposition and just take what they desperately want.
I can't imagine the average JJK fan liking these past few chapters after being baited by that yuji panel
>>283482803Those are the TikTok "readers"
>>283482646I really don't think any characters other than Sukuna and Kenjaku are ever going to have an open domain. It seems like the kind of thing you need ancient and fundamental knowledge of Jujutsu to pull off. Tengen probably would have had one if she was a normal sorcerer
>>283482803I liked them. I don’t care what low IQ readers think really.
>>283482680I wonder what his reason was for leaving their planet and how he got there if they're only now getting spacecraft
>>283478601>>283479878>>283479921Translated as "people" in French. Really bad translation (again) in English.
>>283478934I thought a bit about why I like Modulo so far, even though the whole concept about space aliens arriving is a rather unexpected turn of things. I think it's because it reminds me of a Star Trek TNG story arc. It's a moral conundrum with different factions clashing, viewed through a scifi lens (or rather JJK's setting). There's the high concept theme, but we also have a more mundane day to day plot, where a story is told with regular people within that high concept. Would have preferred if it had been within a timeframe where our old cast was still alive and young enough to deal with everything themselves, but I'm also ok with more of a Jojo approach and have a new generation enact the story. It's ambitious and will likely fuck up along the way, but I'm cool with Gege going for it and trying to do something nifty.
If anything, Modulo is a test to filter out all the JJK "fags" who only read through the fighting and nothing else
>>283479976Loved this turn of perspective. Much cooler than "he's an arrogant evil guy, itching for a beatdown". Then again, introducing him like that is the proverbial Chekhov's Gun. You don't introduce a guy like him and then don't have him fight. So the question now is, how will things go to shit for that to happen and who'll fight him?
the story is about everyone becoming stronger together. the simurians will not stay. whatever is the opponent in modulo will cause everyone to grow. the simurians will return and use the newfound strength to overthrow deskunte.they worship cursed spirits and hate the killing of it since they basically nearly die when witnessing it. earth's cursed spirit hunting will change to only incarcerating them so that the simurians can take them to their homeworld.in the end they will be neighbours
>>283478934authors & artists should learn to play to their strengths.
I've been checking through sukuna fanart in Japan but I'm surprised at how few is Meguna compared to Yujikuna and even Heian Kuna. I guess Meguna is just more popular outside of Japan? Ironic considering it's megumi's body
>>283483656I would be really funny is all things in this manga are solve with diplomacy and dialog
>>283484331>I would be really funny is all things in this manga are solve with diplomacy and dialog KHR did this with its ending. Also involves actual aliens too. Never seen a shonen manga end the final battle with a literal negotiation except for Reborn
>>283484465Isn't KHR's sequel also dedicated to the aliens? What's with Japan's obsession with those at the sequels?
JJK is pretty damn influential for new gen manga it seems
>>283484657what am i looking at here?
>>283483964The Japanese usually have shit taste, but they're right in this one. Yujikuna is by far the coolest form of the character. Meguna's greatest feat is sweating bullets against Gojo then pulling the world cutting slash out of his ass to save his life. Heiankuna never got a proper showing because of how weakened he was by the fight with Gojo
>>283484719Centuria

>>283480589I feel like it might have to do with this>>283478387. Cross said humans have been trampling on simurians even unknowingly, Lumerians seem to have a deep connection with Kalyans/curses so every time humans kill a curse the Lumerians are physically affected to the point some might even die.
>>283484657
>>283484657JJK is easily the most Influential anime out now. The amount of memes and cultural impact is has on the world is astonishing. There's literally a meme of any panel of the manga
>>283479976Dabura is stronger than Sukuna.
>>283484937that's still not very compelling in light of how the main series spent so much time characterizing curses.
>>283478358This is a good sign for me. I've been waiting for Panda to come back as the mascot / info dump character.
>>283478358I want to see Mizuho......
>>283485709Yeah, one of the new episodes of MHA literally had a recreation of the Yuji/Todo/Mahito 120% potential panel. I don't know if that was in the manga too, but if it was, that was probably inspired by JJK anyway
>>283486781
>>283486781our HEROES and maki
I think it's funny that, if you count Julius, the villains of the manga in this picture that are from the same generation all have some form of twin
>>283484937I doubt Kalyians are curses, Maru thoight a shikigami was one, and there shouldn't be curses on Simuria.
>>283479976Yeah, Mahito totally is going to be the main villian. If the Deskuntes or other Simurians make it to Earth for the evillulz it would complicate things.
>>283486924Counting Jugram as a twin for Yuha is more of a stretch than counting Julius and Lucius desu
>>283487122I said "from the same generation" to exclude Bleach
>>283478934So it was religious persecution and not speciesism that drove their tribe offworld.
>>283487122He said>from the same generation
>>283487186its inspired by a book about humanitarian efforts in afghanistan
>>283487186It wasn't religion. It was economical dispute with religion as an excuse.
>>283478926>>283479059Using JJK as a setting he doesn't needs to explain a lot of things and just carry on with concepts and settings of JJK. It was a good decision.
>>283478358I love these
>>283478601TCB did a wayyy better job translating this week
>Dabura is kinda chillOkay, but then who are we fighting then?(besides cancer)
>>283479411Yeah I think I like it more because of that. I didn't think JJK needed a sequel but if they are doing it this way it's alright.
>>283488271The Cancer Curse
>>283488272>if they are doing it this way it's alright.>by being a completely different series in everything but name
>>283487248I read more Mayflower colonization vibes from it.
>>283487333Thought so too. He can tell the story he wants to tell without the need to come up with a whole new setting and there's an opportunity to curbstomp Mahito once more and add a bit to the overall lore.
Huh...so Dabura is technically a super nice guy then, fucking kek. So much for him being this eerie possible final boss.
>>283488392Yes
>>283488271who indeed
>>283478934I mean cute story but I really though there was going to be some connection with the actuall JJK universe with Tengen and Sukuna or something
>>283488904Trying to connect every single element of a setting together is not something you should strife for. Things can exist independently from each other, not doing so can make the world feel small.
>>283488963way too late for that
>>283488271>but then who are we fighting then?Wait till the end of the mini series is the other tribe arriving in their own stone
I really like this artist. Can I read this without having read JJK? I was able to make it through most of the culling games before the art became so lazy and hard to follow that I dropped it.
>>283489357so far yes. you basically know everything that is needed up til now
>>283488963See the original Ultimate Marvel for an example
>>283489357If you just want the art you should read the artist's previous serialization first.
Just noticed that Yuka and Tsurugi are doing the same pose as the other grandparent
>>283489758Also, Gege went back to blond Yuji
Can you believe it that the First Contact between the peoples of alien races happens because one of them got kicked out of their desert so instead of finding someplace else on the planet they decided to travel the stars for a new home?
>>283478540I want to see Dabura’s little sister. Did he take her with him to earth?
>>283489782He should've been blonde in the first place
Interesting how Maru is actually the more aggressive one of the twins
Dabura being weak willed/passive but really fucking strong was what I expected.But we still don't know his view on earthlings, especially if they don't accept he aliens so I won't rule him out yet.
>>283488904People need to stop asking for shit like this. There doesnt need to be any connection to the main story for modulo to be good.
Twins are bad omen for sorcerers I wonder if that will play into modulo
>>283491590>weak willed>killed his friendWhat?
>>283491682I don't mean a sniffling bitch when I say weak willed, going along with orders you know are morally wrong.Besides I'm just saying something ALONG those lines, is where I expected his character to land. Rather than him being Sukuna 2.0 like a lot of people were hyping up.
>>283491643I feel like both are going to survive but they will end on bad terms, with Cross maybe getting imprisoned or exiled for trying to stir a war and doing something awful.
>>283491882>crossgege has been dropping hints that maru is actually the unruly one
>>283491927there was not a single hint about maru being ill intentioned so far
>>283491927But Marus unruliness comes from him being reckless, naive and not being able to control his powers properly, I can’t see him trying to mass murder the humans or Simurians willingly.
if I’m reading this right, simurians are frauds with pay to win gems?
>>283479976this reminds me that gege still manages to shine every now and thenI still remember that one chapter inside Yuji's domain, with the final page of Sukuna's seething face. It was amazing, a diamond in the slop that was the ending that followed it
>>283478358>this little cutie will die from a brain tumour:(
lol I was wondering why there's actually people trying to discuss the chapter despite barely any talks after the leaks but turns out its cause like half of the discussion are people equating or thinking of the aliens as reincarnation of Gojo and Sukuna
>>283478358Knowing her brother loves another girl is why she developed a brain tumor btw.
>>283493481Plus that one obvious redditor samefagging pretending everything is super interesting
>>283493481those are the minority
>>283495318I am not a minor.
>>283490578I feel like the pink hair thing was just a side effect of Gege's colorblindness
>>283478540>>283478904how was Dabura allowed to leave with the rest of them if they had his sister hostage? isn't she dead now?
>>283491927>>283492039Maru's third eye seemed to have a personality separate to him or a manifestation of his hidden bloodlist when he was KOed.
Can anyone in the Modulo group really kill Mahito? RememberAssuming no Yuji Assuming no Nobara The only two likely choices in which Mahito can be injured. Not putting bets on Megumi since we have no idea if any of his kit can damage MahitoAnd assuming they lack descendants and no Kenny for a final fuck you
>Two slice of life chapters with worldbuilding >Everyone is happy
>>283495505Dabura if he is truly as strong as Sukuna. Also Mahoraga negdiff Mahito.
>>283495544Worldbuilding is a balm, since battle shonen tend to generate bad cases of assmad.
>>283495424Its been stated in their world, the strongest gives all authority above all so I assume Dabura will kill the current leader to become the new leader
>>283495412It definitely was. Iirc, he had Yuji in brown hair as well. And with how grounded character designs were in JJK, if Yuji’s hair was actually pink, it would have come up early on, even as just a joke.
Gege forgetting to draw Megumi and Nobara really did him in after a long year of just drawing either Gojo or Yuji
>>283478358actually made me laugh
>>283495921Megumi looked fine. In-character model even Nobara though. She is ugly
>>283495424Anon, who do you think the hooded female with Dabura was after the duel? He got his sister back, and then immediately ran off with her to the Lumel.
>>283495853Sure and it was immediately subverted by the fact that the strongest dude is being forced to comply via a hostage. I'm just confused why his sister being a hostage was enough leverage to kill his friend but not enough leverage to keep him from escaping
>>283495963so they just let their ace in the hole go??? After he killed his friend and has every incentive to seek vengeance?
>>283495921I wonder what's the context here. Everyone doing a funny pose?
>>283495921The anatomy on Megumi's arm is... atrocious
>>283495921As alwaysNobara is UGLY
>>283495921Nobara is getting uglier
>>283495921Nobara is very pretty. She's just making a silly face
>>283492989>$5.99 for 300 Mul >Takes 350 to build a spaceshipBullshit dark patterns should be illegal
BRO MAKI IS ALIVE. WHY IS SHE KEEPING PANDA ON THE FUCKING STORAGE, LET HIM ON THE LIVING ROOM OR SOMETHING, TALK TO HIM FOR THE RARE MOMENTS HE BECOMES SENTIENT. IMAGINE WAKING UP ON A COLD DARK CLOSET EVERY 2 YEARS FOR 10 MINUTES AND THEN PASSING OUT. FUCK HE IS YOUR CLASSMATE
Unironically Sukuna have to had alien gene in him right? He look eerily familiar to the alien, with face lines and slick back demonic hair and shitIt would explain how he is so fucking strong for a being on Earth
>>283497308If anything, that would cheapen Sukuna's achievements. Pass.
>>283495921what the fuck is that pose on megumi, how did no one make him revise it?
>>283497224It's like neglecting your dementia grandpa but even worse, wtf was Gege thinking.
>>283497472Either that or they just based the alien off Sukuna to tell the reader that “Yeah these people can use CURSED energy, they even resemble Sukuna”
>>283482803Old Man Yuji was such a cheap cop out that I did not think anyone was taking it seriously, like just stop and think about it for a second. Starting a spin-off just to bring old character back is always retarded
>>283495974>I'm just confused why his sister being a hostage was enough leverage to kill his friend but not enough leverage to keep him from escapingI assume the one besides him is his sister >>283478750
>>283495921Nobara is beautiful. Notice how the haters didn't recognize she's making a funny face? Thats two examples of them not being able to see right there
>>283497682Modulo sucks as a sequel to the point it would've been fine as an original
Manga of the year already
>>283479380The real Gojo DE'd the prison realm and embedded himself in the fabric of everything. What we saw fight Sukuna was but an afterimage of the ascendant Satoru 'Gautama' Gojo
Yuji sometimes feel like an american black kid to me. Am I the only one
>>283498507Yes. Naruto feels like a nigger to me also
>>283498507It\'s his looks.
>>283498507He IS ugly
>>283498599>NarutoThe guy who cries in his sleep thinking about his "best friend" Sasuke leaving him? At least Yuji and Megumi aren't that gay with each other
I feel like Gege will go the FATE route with jujutsu Kaisen as a franchise and make various works taking place in different timelines. After all when he announced Modulo he referred to it as a parallel timeline.
>>283498507he feels more like a wigger, somehow
>>283498839Shut up Gege
>>283498973Naruto uses a dualistic approach in its unpacking of Black identity in that Sasuke represents a tribalistic and vengeance based worldview present in a lot of US and African communities whereas Naruto embodies the black man's Id- the lack of father, a beast chained within him and the apparent avoidance of these aspects by assuming a disruptive 'class clown' persona. He even possesses the (cat of) 9 tails within him and is able to come to terms with his racial trauma and through interacting with Killer Bee. I won't be responding to your reply btw. I don't wish to derail this JJK thread further and i have meetings to attend.
>>283486799I hope Momo married the real Sebastian Stan after JJK's epilogue.
>>283498973>At least Yuji and Megumi aren't that gay with each otherNaruto seems accidentally gay for Sasuke because Kishimoto is retarded and didn't know what he was doing most of the time. Yuji seems gay for Megumi because Gege reads too much yaoi during his free time so he knew how to make it more subtle yet still obvious. They're not even comparable.
>>283484657DS did it first. Also the tree dude on left look like Future Devil also a tree and Kokushibo
So is Sukuna related to those aliens or not?
>>283497224Panda isnt even "alive". He's made out of stuff and cotton.
JJK being influencial is funny because at the end of the day it's nothing more than a massive crossover fanfiction of a lot of different stories with OC donut steel characters.
>>283500088no, people that say that just wanna make a connection to everything when in reality, trying to make everything connected is retarded.
>>283478934>it was this easy for them to build a super ship to travel to earthokay so I don't get it. the two chapters portray the simurians as those typical fantasy Middle Ages type of civilisation, yet the twins made a space mothership easily. so my questions are, how often does this happen to simurians to just build ships out of magic ore and fuck off into space? and did sukuna do this too?
>>283495505We still haven't seen Yuka's CT yet, Gege can always pull some soul affect out of his ass for that.
>>283495505If tsurugi gets Maki's heavenly restriction.If Yuka has her own powerup.If Maru and Cross' technique keeps being this BS.If Dabura is really Sukuna tier.There are many options.
>>283497308His additional eyes don't seem to have the weirdness of the Simurians', same for the tatoos.
Imagine Dabura doesn't even have a CT and all his power just comes from physicality + curse reinforcement
>>283479976So these aliens are still very primitive tech-wise, but there's no reaction to human tech???
>>283478934I don't know if it follows from being invaded that you should leave the planet - I mean, surely there is some peaceful land you can emigrate to on Simuria as well? Anyway, very good chapter. I see people saying this should have been unrelated to JJK - I'm not sure about this, I want to see where it goes. I'm getting sort of Namek vibes from this whole manga, like on the one hand it doesn't really fit with the rest but on the other it may also become a cool expansion of the source material if played right.
>>283479059Is it possible that he wanted to go for huge political drama in the original JJK and couldn't do it? I think about the whole plot thread about the US sending soldiers to Japan during the culling game - could it be that he's taking up a story he maybe wanted to try there, and putting it on aliens instead?
>>283501065That would be fucking gay I hate that gimmick. It’s some dragon ball bullshit>>283501268The story always had a subtle political tone with the whole jujutsu society corruption, but clearly he doesn’t have what it takes to write something like that
>>283500130…no it isn’t. Are you implying that an author being inspired by other works makes his work some fan fiction?
>>283501268Yeah. Chinese fans and some politicians didn't like the those chapters. Gege chickened out and never mentioned China and US again.
>>283501428Chinese are the worst crowd always. Should always avoid china in writing
>>283478726Japs also notice this because they currently having protests all over the Japan. Reason why Modulo is flopping in Japan. Fucking Gaygay ruins JJK with political crap.
>>283501268he joked about the gear being too hard to draw in an extra, and it seems like it would have gotten in the way of later events. that plus knowing he was feeling pretty shit, it makes sense to just wrap up some tertiary plotlines.
>>283489758gaygay art it's so bad
>>283478790Gege is unable to let go his retarded oneshot. Hell, Yuka and Tsurugi even improve as characters by not being linked to Yuta/maki, just let them be some random kids
>>283489758gege's art ist so good
>>283501065I'm imaging it right now anon. I spent 15 seconds pondering your thought and it was decidedly uninspiring. You made my life worse.
>>283501065While it could be I hope not, I like interesting powers.
35 sec preview of the Shibuya movie featuring Yuta vs Yujihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCEFV01r-mw
>>283501135Cross is still baffled by popcorn.
>>283501428That's bullshit, pay attention. In the manga he had the US invade and we watched them get rolled. Then it was revealed that they were just fodder to charge the ritual with CE.
I know this is some probably bad time but is there a reason why Yuta is never as popular as Yuji and especially Megumi? Yuta's got it all>A tragic backstory>Two girls who love him, even married Maki and had kids>Compelling journey through 0>Cute fujobait with Inumaki>Is generally kind to the cast>Good synergy with Yuji and can stand with him on equal terms unlike with Megumi >Just a meek kid who goes strong when needed >Resident Katana user and is the one closest to Gojo in terms of potential>Wins a lot of his fights>Unlike Megumi, he's the prodigy that actually delivered his title instead of being a fraud and a bum>Never a detriment to the plot unlike Megumi >Gets a cute happy ending unlike most of the castAnd don't say screentime and animeonly, JJK 0 was released during the peak of JJK boon so people already knew about Yuta
I was looking through Mahito’s posts and he was rightMahitoschizo’s
>>283502185Animefags will 100% hate what Gege done to Gojo soon. People have already clowned on Yuta everywhere now.
>>283502185Peak JJK boom was during S2. While JJK became popular after the anime finished, it wasnt as worldly popular till S2
>>283502185Because he's a secondary character from a much shorter story, wich has already had his arc in that short time, so even if you like him there is not much to say, and in the main story he's got like two or three good moments?
>>283502185>Yuta's got it allthat's part of the problem, gotta pick a lane
>Yuta's got it allThat the problem. We already got Gojo.
>>283502185You listed the reasons why he can't be as popular as Yuji and MegumiHe is winning TOO much
mahitoschizohttps://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdThweD1/
>>283502185>Yuta's got it allYou just said it. JJK gives punishment to even Gojo, the strongest. Yuta suffers little to no comeuppance
>>283502355i freakaing spited every were
>>283502185He is uglyNo chemistry with any villain nor any other characterAuthor tries waaaaay too hard to shill him His story should have ended in Metropolitan (metropolitan, not jjk, that was gege forcing metropolitan into jjk)He gets focus (just like maki) when others deserved it more
>Midjutsu Shartsen 2: Midulo
>>283502357losing the love of his life was his repercussion for his future success
>>283502386But that doesn't matter either way because Rika came back as his shikigami
>>283502292Overseas mangareaders don't like Gojo death and the ending. It was wordly popular because people spammed Nah i'd win and Gojo among us memes everywhere. Even my brothers followed the trends for a while, but they didn't read the manga or watch anime in the end. We not gonna get another JJK0 peak again because covid was already over.
>>283502397JJK is already a world wide sensational series. If you think any current series out is popular, once JJK S3 airs it will be over ten folds of those popular series.
>starting a yuta argument to revitalize the threadbreaking the emergency glass
>>283502304>Because he's a secondary characterHe was the Original MC in the very early drafts even before 0, JJK was going to be about him being a outsider exorcising curses to found a way of getting rid of Rika which was going to be even more unhinged also Megumi role was bigger since he is the one he gets possesed by Sukuna in the beggining instead of Yuji
>>283502185No matter how much you and powerscalers hate on Megumi, there are tons of people who like him on his own merits than screaming about "muh potential man" like powerscalers do who don't even support the series
>>283502432Luckily the editor saved the day
The flame CT of Tsurugi Katana isn't similar to maki's father CT?
>>283502464Slander creators are funny to me because they wasted so much time making art and edits shitting on characters but they're the ones who never actually bought anything to support the series. No merch, no manga volumes, or even blu rays. At least fujos actually support the brand
>>283502467That editor wanted a typical Naruto style of manga which Gege didn't allow either, that's why JJK is this messy
if Mahito reappears only to be instantly wrecked would be hilarious
>>283502512The only bad part was the school, but the Naruto trio and no Fortnite was obviously the superior option
>>283502625>muh humdrum middlgrader hypotheticals are le HUMUROUS
what if you guy… Sukuna was actually A Reborn as Yujis twin brother… Oh My god That is Poetic
>>283478355There. No jjk. Just make it about aliens only, then they arrive to earth and meet YukaNo need for jjk
*strokes my babybut smooth chin*Mmmmmmmm.. If Gojo force reincarnates himself just 2 show he da strongest!!!!
>People now saying Dabura is actually the equivalent of Megumi, not Sukuna???
>>283502630We don't know the extent of how much naruto that Editor wanted could be only the similar trio o could be Sukuna becoming Kurama 2.0... So JJK is "better" this way even if this messy
>>283502432Yes, but he's still a secondary character, he was a protagonist in 0, in the story he appears much less and just as a support for Yuji rather than having his own plotline.He had good moments, but one of them is misunderstood because Gojo fans were salty Gojo didn't resurrect in spite of that undermining the meaning of the fight and his ideology, and generally he can't hold up to the real main characters the story revolves around.
>>283502706 (me)By the way I'm not saying secondary characters can't overtake main characters, one of my favorite characters is an example of that, but it's hard.
>>283502698It's the >Strongest but held back due to his own mindset There's a twist there is that Dabura is what happens if Megumi actually stayed with the Zenin You can feel the hypocrisy with people saying they like Dabura's character but they're the ones who hate megumi,
>>283502744The genuine hate towards Megumi is really for the fact he refused to help at the most critical moment. Like people were okay he wasn't really strong, only autistic powerscalers have it against him but it was the giving up part is where the real hate came from
Id say if Gege wasn't too blatant in how he wanted to bench Nobara and Megumi despite how they were still pretty popular and well liked, fans would have been more receptive and warmed up with Maki and Yuta(and Hakari) being Yuji's new group. Well, it'd also help if Gege didn't make like 90% of the early cast disappear or become irrelevant halfway in the series in favor of random Culling Game characters you couldn't really tell would stick around or not. I think it all really hinges on how Gege's favoritism was too blatant.
>>283502744Megumi's real problem is that he was barely given any screentime to focus on his own character and knowing the average IQ of the typical JJK reader, they really thought his whole arc is about realizing his potential
>>283502816Nah, yuta and maki don't have any interesting dynamic, and, their biggest crime is that people want to see others instead (Nobara Megumi, choso Todo), using yuta and maki is just cockblocking other cooler characters
>>283502744People hate Megumi because they could have defeat it Sukuna in Yuta's Domain with his help but he choose went full NAH, I'D GIVE UP
>>283502816Even the big hitter 4 is pretty flimsy because Yuji, Yuta, and Maki never shared a scene together and Hakari is just too out of place to have a chemistry with anyone but Kirara . There's a reason why Yuji/Megumi/Nobara/Gojo dynamic worked so well among fans
>>283502816Hakari is so inconsequential in the long run, it's not even funny. Like legit one of the few characters that can be removed and nothing ever changes.
>>283502816Anon yuta and manki suck. But the worse is we are not allowed to have other interactions/plots because it would outshine those black holes charisma characters
>>283502816I look at Hakari and wonder why does he even exist?
>>283502873I hope the Anime adapts if off-screen fight with Urame
So a CE-powered spaceship made of stone?Adn wihout any knowledge of space or space travel or orbital dynamics, they reached earth in what? Days?
>>283502839>>283502876Disagree, in 0 they were neat, and in the main story they had nice moments, sadly Maki after killing the Zenin ends abruptly her arc and stops having anything interesting.
>>283502873Him, Kashimo, and Uraume are the trio of wasted pagesFunny how all three are connected
>>283502892Gege probably noticed that besides a few characters, Urame can instally kill most characters so he needed a counter Urame this way the Sukuna conga line has a chance of winning
>>283502905she never really had anything developed outside of it, so he pays off that setup and that's it, that's the finale. except it's not the end so she just ends up as another body for fights.
>>283502919He could have just had Gojo kill Uraume with that one punch he landed after being unsealed. The Hakari would have had 0 purpose in the final arc
Even for powerscaling, all Hakari had was regen
>>283502698>Doesn't like to be the strongest but only does for the sake of his family>It happens to be his sister>And then he kills the person who is supposedly the Gojo equivalent It's starting to come together
>>283502945>He could have just had Gojo kill Uraume with that one punch he landed after being unsealed. The Hakari would have had 0 purpose in the final arcThe problem with that would be another "Gojo solving all the problems because the rest of the cast are useless"
>>283502185>>Cute fujobait with InumakiThat never materialized.
>>283502744Not exactly, powerscaling isn't the only problem with megumi. He quite literally never developed his character despite having a very strong theme and actual suffering happening to him. Making him just the same guy he was in chapter 1 felt like going through all of that ordeal of his body being used to kill both Tsumiki and Gojo meant nothing to him
>>283502185You know it's embarrassing for Yuta he still can't beat the misogynist who has yet to appear in the anime and someone who's been dead since 0
>>283503058We never got to see the aftermath of that, which I imagine was a ton of therapy and post-hypnotic suggestion. Either that, or Megumi is actually tough enough to tank being mindraped and bodyjacked by a murderous cannibal demon and be unfazed.
>>283503097Alternatively, he transferred all of his trauma and brain damage to Yuka.
>>283502941On this I agree, she only had that going on, with too little downtime to develop her relationships with her friends, wich brought to, when her arc finished, she had nothing left.
>>283503106Gave her everything except his tankness?
>>283503118She is a woman
>>283503058You might argue his little laugh when he read the letter was more of his closure that he still got to smile despite all of that
Gege needed to study how Toriyama and Kubo were able to phase out the members of MC's initial main group with new beloved characters:>have the old characters keep fighting until they hit their limit against the new antagonist>new characters are shown to be strong enough to keep up with MC and tangle with the new threats>the old characters either retire from the fighting or are just able to be supportProblem that Gege did is he just made most of the characters just disappear from the plot until the final arc, even if they would still be useful in just killing random curses or serve as fodder to stall the enemy until MC's new group shows up. Even if they aren't in the top tier, why exactly can't Inumaki, Momo, Miwa and Ino can't be part of the fighting again? Panda at least had been shown on-screen how out of depth he is and lost most of his capabilities to explain why he can't fight anymore, Todo is somewhat self explanatory but still should have at least once to give some advice/insight and show he can't fight well anymore, Nobara's fate shouldn't have been kept vague and made it clear she was in a coma, let her fans cope that she might recover to get back in the fight but you can also establish that even if she recovers that she might not be effective due to the lose of depth perception and overall brain injury.Megumi's the more harder to effectively bench considering his capabilities but could have him grow more weary and dislike the fighting then ultimately lose anymore motivation to fight due to losing Tsumiki, AND THEN that's when Sukuna should take over and possess him once its established to the characters/fans that Megumi gave up on the fighting. Kinda like what happened with Gohan.
>>283478568>>283478601>hamfisted preachy message 9 chapters in to show that the aliens aren't a threat, sucking away all the tensionThis shit would be u20'd if it's made by a newbie
Benching Megumi so late into the story never made sense to me, it would be much more acceptable if he was removed halfway when it was clear he didn't like to be a sorcerer because of the pointless bloodshed and sacrifice
>>283503305Geto 2.0? Pass on that.
>>283503313I mean, he is the Geto to Yuji's Gojo and Nobara's Shoko
>>283503251Oh also forgot about Noritoshi, funnily enough the only one of the early cast to not really be cast off during the CGs but then just runs away in the final arc. But yeah he's like a good way to showing how he's reached his peak and that Choso is just so much better that he's not gonna be that useful besides some momentary distraction like Tien was.Anyways it boils down to Gege just not showing/using the old cast until they become useless and get surpassed on screen by other characters. Fans won't be able to let go of the old characters if they can't really verify that their time in the series is done.
>>283502905Nah they are forced shit.
>>283503471Agree to disagree.
>>283478934Really enjoyed it, unlike some earlier chapters my attention held the whole time and I wanted more
>>283479976>Dura... I don't know what to do... :,(
>>283502698Megumi vs Dabura soon
>>283478477Interesting that Maru is completely composed through the whole ordeal and the only thing that sets him off isn't that Dabura killed Dura, but that he didn't completely butcher him.
>>283504080I guess he snapped when he saw Dura getting disrespected (in his 3 eyes) like that because he was the first to fight Dura and probably thought he was the strongest and respected him a lot.
Dabura would mog Gojo
>>283502698Read the chapter again. Dabura is not a villain at all. Just literally forced to fight because there was no other option and because space politics. And all for his sister too. Sounds familiar?
>Dabura is actually MegumiDoes this mean the sister will die horribly soon?
>>283504352or betray him because she'll want the main villain's sperm
>>283504352>>283504365>>283504323Oh god. I can feel the plot coming in already
>>283504352>>283504365>all that just to mindbreak Dabura and became mindcontrolled/possesed or whatever
Ah yesBumbura
>>283504352Well, he already killed the "Gojo". Might as well go all the way
Gege gotta give Tsurugi something interesting for people to latch onto him. He's just the boring muscle guy
>>283504475Just like his grandma, Tsurugi aims to be the tough one with no personality.
>>283504352Time for Mahito's universe sized Domain Expansion.
>>283504352>Dabura's sister is about to get Tsumiki'd>Yuka about to die with the brain cancer in her head>tfw both women

I hope sukuna reincarnation is fat
>>283507065Sukuna is the 2nd strongest sorcerer to ever liveKakashi is a bum
Will Gege cook up a more disappointing character than Megumi in the future or will he forever hold that title?
>>283507733Hakari exists
>>283507738Hakari was introduced halfway and was never thought to be potentially Gojo level.
>>283507733Probably not. You need to introduce someone who has like 20 CTs in one but ends up having no wins in like 10 battles. Megumi had 6 wins and only three losses.
>>283507771>Hakari was introduced halfwayspeedreader bro...
>>283507836Hakari's proper introduction was halfway into the manga so I'm still correct
>>283507857>proper introductionyou are objectively incorrect
>>283507708>2nd strongestGojobro...You have to let go...
Rewatched all anime and movie, and I have to say other than Gojo past arc, JJK 0 is way better than regular JJK. Regular JJK felt juvenile with the curses that act like people and Sukuna as the antagonists, while Zero+Gojo past arc felt more grounded in horror and human factions and politics. It was like two different fucking stories.
>>283507733People say that Yuji didn't have a "protagonist" role, but it was clearly Megumi and Nobara who got shat on. JJK is stiched of two different stories which I noted earlier (I am in the minority who found the curse faction shit the most BORING of the story).The clan wars and politics, with divisions of sorcerers, and such which protagonists were Yuta and Maki (the heroine). Gojo functions as a mentor more smoothly even here because of his whole ass fucking past and background is connected here. Geto and Kenjaku are basically the MAIN real antagonist which can cause actual lasting damage and Yuta beats his ass.And this whole "human curses"/hybrid/vessels faction are we human or not shit which has Yuji as MC. And is more generic shounen shit, with battles. Megumi and Nobara basically are just plot tools for these. I think it's fitting Maki and Yuta descendants are embroilled in some political and diplomacy plot in the sequel because their characters were the MCs of this plot.If you ask me the REAL "trio" (not always placed together as friends) were Yuji, Yuuta, and Maki. Whatever side of JJK you like more. That's a fact.With Mahito return, Yuji or his kid or grandkid, can take that shounen angle.
>>283508470Calling Maki part of the main trio is a bit too kind f you ask me. She had an arc, sure. But she's nowhere near as important as Gege wanted audience to believe. If anything. Main trio for JJK is actually Yuji, Gojo, and Yuta
>>283508470>With Mahito return, Yuji or his kid or grandkid, can take that shounen angle.I think Maru/Cross is the stand in for Yuji/Sukuna aside, since it's the "Non human" POV maybe, except it was integrated smoothly with Yuuta+Maki instead of being schizophrenic in writing as the original. Tsurugi is obviously new Maki (Sorry Megumi bros) and Yuka might be the new Yuuta once she unleashes her potential. Cross isn't going to be as bad as Sukuna since he already has more characterization and focus.
>>283507733Correction. There will never be a more disappointing character in anime/manga history than Megumi. It's genuinely insane to have such a character with such a gigantic setup and one of the coolest powers go absolutely nowhere and turn him into one of the biggest jokes. His entire legacy is a joke nowadays. Basically has no fans now
>>283508641She's literally the face for the heavenly body+clan arc, while Yuta is more the face of the general sorcerer one. She would have gotten more page time if they hadn't forced Fraudbara existence.Gojo is the "mentor character." Her grandson is basically filling her spot but in a smooth way, because wasn't fucked by the rough changes Gege did. Gege obviously has an idea how to do Module and a plan from the beginning, while he was throwing ideas to a wall after JJK because of editors and readers reactions in JJK.>>283508680Good catch.
Gege is so obsessed with those two personality voids that even making them the official couple just can't have people draw shipping art of them. If you like them, sure. Good for you but at the end of the day, people didn't like to be baited that Megumi and Nobara were afterthoughts.
>>283508856Even Japan doesn't give a shit about their grandkids since my TL has them obsessed over the aliens than they do with Tsurugi and Yuka
>>283508856Just because you dislike them doesn't make them personality voids. You sound like a butthurt fujo, honestly.
>>283508922You say as if Maki had any sort of personality after being converted to Toji without the charisma said person had. Gege Made her some generic strong girl and that's kinda it
>>283508948She's literally a try hard tsundere who wanted to prove herself to give the middle finger to her clan.
>>283489758>Yuta>Yuji>MakiYup yup, that's the trio of heroes I know and love.
Cross/Yuka is gonna be a thing, right?
I just want more Yuka x Cross
>>283495921>pink Yuji here>>283489758>blond Yuji herePick a side.
>>283509009>>283509015FOR THE SAKE OF PEACE.
>>283508739I still don't get what's the intention he had with him. Could've shafted him out of Shibuya like he did with Gojo and Nobara. Have him get Sukuna'd off screen. The other goal in CG was to get Hana in which Yuji could still accomplish that since she was in the same colony as him and Megumi. Tsumiki was not needed since she has like 5 panels of screentime
cross will become yuka's rika (but after he impregnates her with twins)
>>283502816If Maki kept her ponytail instead of becoming the second coming of Toji she'd have been more liked.
>>283509059The problem is that he was the original MC of the new story, while Yuji was a disposable one, so they left him around as Toji's son. But Yuji's and his arc probably kind of overlapped so ended up cannibalizing each other.Sometimes Gege threw random connections that made no sense for the sake of it like Kenjaru being Yuji's mother. Kenjaru as I noted was mostly Getw0 villain type for the sorceror part of the story and not the curse/vessel one (which is about Yuji), so he died without fucking interacting BECAUSE his connection with Yuji was just random extra that served ZERO purpose and he could have come up with something else, since there was no clear reason why Yuji was made as Sukuna's vessel when Megumi was better for that??
>>283504763I honestly never got the hype around Gojo because he reminded me of Kakashi too much. All I could think of was that he watched way too much Naruto as a kid and imitated his childhood hero.
>>283509059There's unironically a perfect setup for all three of Yuji's team to be put out of the story for a huge portion of the manga>Gojo: sealed by Kenjaku. Needs Hana to get him out>Nobara: Eye fell out. Got placed In a coma by Mahito. Recovery unknown >Megumi: Got slapped by Mahoraga to a concrete wall. Didn't die because of SukunaMegumi was the most confusing one because he just struts in to Yuji and Yuta looking perfectly fine. There was no reason he ended up being fine after having three fights (one of which is goddamn solo fight with Toji) and a surprise sneak attack by Haruta and a full blown strike from Mahoraga
Do Simurians use deodorant?, is Cross smelling like shit while ranting at Yuka?
>>283509059>The other goal in CG was to get Hana in which Yuji could still accomplish that since she was in the same colony as him and MegumiYou're talking about Megumi's dream of harem MC Yuji which was Gege's nightmare.
>>283502905>>283502816Culling Games was a Sorceror story so was for Yuta and Maki, with Yuji as the ft. starring guest. >>283508470This is what happened. Maki and Yuta NEVER stopped being the main characters of Gege's story but it has two different plots he smashed together.He could have separated things with Gojo being a tie-in character with Geto and his cult and faction and the sorceror society as antagonists of Yuta's, and Sukuna and the curses as antagonists of Yuji's but he chose to smashed it together and the tone was super fucking whiplash sometimes.Nobara was benched because she had jackshit to do in culling games. Yuta returned too when things got a focus on sorcery society shit. He couldn't bench Yuji because he was commited to this smashed shit.Module I think is better because he plan things more carefully from the start.
>>283509208>There was no reason he ended up being fine after having three fights (one of which is goddamn solo fight with Toji) and a surprise sneak attack by Haruta and a full blown strike from MahoragaThere's this thing about Megumi is that while he's weak offensively. Defensive wise, he has extremely good tanking ability which is ironic given his skinny stature and lack of HR to make sense of that
>>2835092923F Sukuna blasted him through multiple buildings and still ends up looking that he just had a scratch. Megumi was always known to be a very formidable tank.
>>283509273I think the sorcerer side (Yuta's story) could have been serialized in a monthly seinen magazine because it'll have a more political edge, and maybe a dip in the background of the three great apparations and clans history. It would have touched/crossover some aspects but kept the cast (Gojo aside) and antagonists separated.
>>283509292Megumi has 'Sturdy' as his ability
>>283508641Once Gege confirmed Wasuke was Sukuna's twin, Maki slides in perfectly for a cool worldbuilding explanation. What happened to Sukuna is the exact same thing that happened to her when her twin died and she got a massive powerup from it.
>>283509469>What happened to Sukuna is the exact same thing that happened to her when her twin died and she got a massive powerup from it.Opposite thing, but yeah
>>283509389And a merciless beating from Todo and he was fully unprepared there. I don't think he even got a head bleeding from Toji which was wild
>>283509492>>283509469Are you saying Yuka is gonna die to give her bro a power up?
Basically. Megumi's stats are this>HP: B>Atk: D>Def: SS+ So def: SSS+ >Int: D>Spd: E
>>283509618I mean SP Def for that one, fuck
Maru = YuujiCross = Sukuna (ish)Dabura = MegumiTsurugi = MakiYuka = Yuta Is Nobara irrelevant?
Is Sukuna Fighting/Fire?
>>283509690Cooking.
>punching bag of the universe and fandom has one of the best defense Kinda funny actually
>>283509153Kenjaku was a mistake. In retrospect he was obviously designed to allow a round two of Yuta vs Geto, the way a lot of sequel series bring back the original antagonist, but Gege fumbled hard in the execution of connecting him to the new Disaster Curse plotline. On a further note I think it was also a mistake to kill off Mahito so quickly instead of letting him somehow stick around for CG; out of every disaster curse Gege clearly loved the guy and he made a good foil to Yuji who was also a total newbie to the sorcerer world.
>>283509033Pink Yuji always and forever.
>>283509616Her brain tumor is a parasitic twin and killing it will give her a powerup.
>>283500046It's referencing the Sukuna vs Gojo fight you casual plebian retard monkey.
>>283509292It is weird huh. By all means, Megumi's body should be destroyed since he has a regular sorcerer's body. And that's without getting into how his body is still left intact after Sukuna. He should've gotten brain damage too but he was just fine
>>283509616NOT TWINSONE YEAR APART
>>283509740I agree he was because he was the plot-device to try to smash the plots together. I honestly think the series would have been smoother if Gege did two manga as that other anon proposed.One seinen monthly which had focus on Yuta and the Society politics, with Geto as antagonist (have him get away from Gojo and survive), and another with the shounen curse fightan. Move Yuji and co into another city/prefecture or move Yuta and his cast to Kyoto.Have some cast randomly appear specially the adults but have their storylines separated. It would have been more "hyped" if the last page of each other magazine would be the main trio of each meeting and becoming friends after their personal adventures ended.
Will gege finally commit to twincest after teasing it so much in JJK?
>>283509740Should've killed him off closer to Sukuna taking center stage as main villain
>>283509869The idea of Megumis body getting destroyed sounds so hot.
>>283509869>Tfw Megumi is the only one among the four who has never lost any of his body parts Yuji lost his fingersNobara lost her eyeGojo got his body sliced in half But Megumi had everything still left intact. He was truly built different
>>283509869>He should've gotten brain damage too but he was just fineWe've been over thisHe got Sukuna's knowledge of Binding Vows imprinted into his body and used one to transfer his brain damage to Yuka
>>283509292The irony is that he's a very suicidal kid who actually made attempts but the universe won't allow him to die.
Remember the moetard
>>283509740>the way a lot of sequel series bring back the original antagonistAh, like Ashuraman and Satan being the final antagonists of the original Kinnikuman Nisei run
Half paying attention. So Sukuna was a Simurian to explain why he was ridiculously powerful?
>>283509869Got hit with 5 unlimited voids, 7 black flashes, like 5 hollow purples, and a multitude of other attacks from the rest which all resulted to.........Megumi getting a light headache Yuka got a brain tumor for just existing. Nice genes, Yuta.
>Yuji and Yuko>Megumi and Hana>Not Hakari and Kirara for obvious reasonsWho will be the first non-Okkotsu descendants to show up?
>>283509907I think you could have made both plotlines work closer together but that would require more worldbuilding properly weaving Yuji and his gang into the existing sorcerer story to let it properly function as the "sequel" to JJK0 that Gege really wanted to continue with Culling Games as the hype moment uniting the two storylines together, and further building up Yuji's character-defining moment in the finale cementing the reason he, not Yuta, is the true MC of JJK. As-is, you're right that it would function better as two separate ones. Gege seems to have learned his lesson for Modulo, ironically for all the memes of people saying he hated Yuji, he's sticking to a Yuji-like setup instead of another Yuta.
>>283509920He killed him because he decided it was politics times with culling games. Culling games isn't bad (I disagree with this) but it feels absolutely random in a story focused on fighting curses, because as I mentioned, Gege was writing two plots smashed together. The story of culling games absolutely make sense with the whole criticism of sorceror society and its higher ups but such a thing is not important to Yuji, Megumi or Nobara who are kind of extra to all this shit. Even with Megumi being a Zenin it never played a role in his life as it did with Maki. See what I talked about.I feel people are unfair to Maki, Yuta, etc, because they were obviously the main focus of the story Gege had planned but he started patch up the other story he was writing and left all sides unsatisfied. I would have loved to read the world building of the sorceror society without the Namek Planet that was Sukuna's fights. It was two different manga and stories thrown into a blender. And I'm sure those who wanted to have more fighting shounen battles with curses didn't want to deal with the culling ganes disturbing them.
>>283510059No, don't be retarded
>>283510100I'm telling you guys, Megumi is the other grandpa of Yuka and Tsurugi but they don't talk about him.
>>283510133But then why do they look like him?
finna
>>283510115I think the way Yuji works, he couldn't be the MC of this story that's why by inserting this story, it feels he's "not the mc" but he is just of another story, like Yuta is still of that. The issue is that Gege inserted Yuji in Yuta's and Yuta's in Yuji, creating unnecessary resentment from the fans. It also made their important cast benched. LIke Inumaki, Nobara, Panda, etc.
>>283510123It works great in retrospect where Yuji talks about how all life has value, implicitly dunking on the whole politics of sorcerer clans at the same time he's abandoning the toxic mindset of being nothing but a cog. But it needed a lot more work instead of, as you said, making him an extra.
>>283510115>he's sticking to a Yuji-like setup instead of another Yuta.I think Modulo is combining politics and non human side of things. You have a balance of the four cast.Yuka is obviously the Yuta stand-in (or will become) and she's pretty important in the themes with how she interacts with Cross. It's gonna be a litle more generic, because one of Yuta's creative setting is that he was a guy claiming the power of love which is mostly a girl thing though.
>>283510100I'm telling you. Both Shoko and Megumi conspired against Yuta for desecrating Gojo's body. Shoko gave her lung cancer while Megumi gave his brain damage
>>283510289The central problem haunting Yuta that meant the first editor was right to wrangle Gege away from him is that he really needs a Rika to play off of instead of Maki.
Are Gojeets still melting down two years later
>>283510239You can have that speech without all that stuff in culling game since is just his life as human being despite being a cursed lifeform, the complete opposite of Sukuna who gave up his humanity to become a cursed object.I'd like to see Yuta learning the ancient clans history, and his ancestor's bullshit, an insight to the Gojo clan (which was fucking underwritten) when he was built up as Gojo's successor obviously, but we never had this shit, like we didn't have enough Yuji focus because of how schizo everything was.
>>283510373You can, but what I mean is that it does work as a put-down there too.
>even JJK is shitting on Israel now
>>283510336I think if there was a 0 expansion, the plot would have served as prototype and stretch things. I think the horror/politics side would give it more of a flavor to expand the setting too.Yuta and Maki worked as pairing to me because of how reversed gender roles with Yuta being more emotional mage type with love as power, and Maki being stoic or angry muscle warrior. That's to me. The siblings are playing this types straight so make them have less potential.If cross is a sukuna (anti villain) stand in, and yuka is a female yuta stand in the making, is then pretty hilarious because King of Curses/Queen of Curses (Rika was Yuuta's cursed energy), and who denied love/uses power of love could have been foils-but it was never used because Yuta's arc was completely removed from Sukuna despite being forced into his fights (I agree with this, like Get2 shouldn't be related to Yuuji) which is a big fucking thematic miss. But the "new gen" versions are actually being thematically written together.
I don't get what this has to do with the sorcerers and curses.Like at least in One Piece it would make sense for Luffy to travel to space to find the space one piece.
>>283510561It's still about those things. Just under a different perspective.
>>283510561they are hinting they are the source of cursed energy.
>>283510561Mahito is literally back.
>>283510336I half agree with that. Maybe the two and prolong the plot and separation as the wrap maybe.Also because human/non human romance is just more interesting.
>>283510110I think Yuji will fill a Gojo like role, or don't appear. Even kids. Because Maru's obviously his stand-in.
Gotta re-read stuff, but I'm basically agreeing that the major problem is Gege trying to get his cake and eat it rather than committing to something. For example, Maki became a "nothing" Toji character in the Sukuna character because she had no business in that fucking battle. She actually gets a personality back when she interacts with her clique. I hope Tsurugi, if he's gonna follow her steps, won't be haunted by the same error.

>>283479976Well, i'd say he's not the main villain outright. Like this makes it clear he isn't hostile or looking for a chance to go to war, but ultimately he will protect the Simurians regardless if they are in the right or not. He's like their nuke, basically. So the "villain" is the group of Simurians looking to invade rather than coexist and, if they have their way, we might get something like a Dabura gauntlet. He's indirectly the main villain I guess. I thought this development was very interesting, so I am hyped to see where Gege goes with this.

Yuji Itadori challenges Sukuna to a physical battle. Unlike when he teamed up with Maki, this time he doesn't rely on the support of Daybreak and instead intends to defeat Sukuna with his own strength. Sensing this determination, Sukuna finds it amusing and laughs.While Yuji has absorbed the Nine Cursed Objects and several other cursed items, the disparity in power between him and Sukuna is evident. Even in a physical battle without cursed tools and techniques, he is quickly pushed into a corner.Sukuna, who is enjoying himself, attempts to release a finishing blow on Yuji, but at that moment, Daybreak activates his Domain Expansion. However, Sukuna had already seen that the prohibition of violence in the extermination domain applies only to humans within the domain, and it does not prevent attacks on the domain itself. Sukuna proceeds to collapse the domain from within by cutting through space itself.Sukuna declares it's over, but Yuji dashes towards Judge Man, leaving Sukuna puzzled. The narration explains that the extermination domain didn't collapse before its completion; it was destroyed by Sukuna after its completion. At the moment the domain was completed, Judge Man knew everything about Sukuna, and the extermination domain had fulfilled its purpose.In a flashback, an angel tells Yuji and the others that Sukuna was originally a human who became the cursed king and gained an abnormal form due to some kind of restriction. They suggest that if the restriction could be broken, it might weaken him.Yuji devours Judge Man, and the life of Sukuna that Judge Man learned about flows into his mind. Yuji reveals Sukuna's human name, "Ryomen Sukuna," and Sukuna's face shows surprise as we head into the next episode.

Yuka literally looks like Yuta without his sleepless eyebags.And her bro looks like Maki without tits.
Knowing now that Kalyians are cursed spirits, it starting to make Cross' attitude make sense. Like the Lumelian's see them as divine creatures, their whole religion is structured around coexisting with and revering them. They see we've indiscriminately slaughtered our own Kaliyans throughout history, which is fundamentally against their culture, religion, and way of life, so it makes why they can't see a path forward living alongside us. Not to mention the political dynamic between Japan and the rest of the world. For the Lumelians, it must be like finally having a glimmer of hope in finding a new home only to learn you're right back where you started. To them, it probably feels the Japanese are like the Deskunte just in a different form. It's also interesting just how different their society is compared to jujutsu. They've shown it's possible to live together with cursed spirits, and seemingly elevated themselves by doing so. Essentially, another outcome to what Yuki/Kenjaku discussed on the next stage of humanity. I always felt like the dynamic between sorcerers and cursed spirits was always morally ambiguous, I mean that much was made clear when Mahito and Yuji fought in Shibuya, but they are byproducts of negative human emotion at the end of the day. Humans create them with those negative feelings, it drives their instinct, so are they inherently evil or victims of their own nature? Kind of feels like Mahito is going to be the big bad of the story now. Fear of humans from the Lumelians will create something nasty when he reincarnates. I wonder how they will react, he's like the embodiment of darkness of human nature. I'm sure it won't be as simple as killing him either, due to their religious views. I'm sure he will be the catalyst to the final conflict, whatever it might be.
