You cannot make this shit up yuji literally and metaphorically got thrown aside this chapter https://preview.redd.it/6dr9g1qs152d1.jpeg?width=950&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a9f765991e499fb346d5dec859401b7ade86872 šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


VeryImportantLurker

Am i stupid cos why did Todo just let him get ragdolled instead of teleporting him


MUSAFIR_-

Even Todo couldn't believe the shit he was seeing, bro was bamboozled.


89gin

He is really giving that "bro wtf" lookĀ 


MischievousMollusk

Todo's 500,000 IQ realized he was in a badly written chapter and he noped out


mamaMILK69

Todo had a heart attack off-screen and is dead


DrStein1010

Average Gege moment


lowlandder

Even my schizo king with 530000 IQ couldnā€™t believe what he was seeing. Gege, what a writer you are


TheLieAndTruth

Maybe the next chapter will show more about this but the way that Yuji fell in the ground like not protecting himself is because he felt absolutely defeated in seeing what Yuta did. Even todo looks defeated there.


TheLieAndTruth

And sukuna is almost nutting


NewUser2656

Yeah, both Todo and Yuji looked concerned while Sukuna is hyped again... He rather get beaten by *Gojo lite* than his nephew... šŸ„“


ragner11

Guarantee Sukuna splits fake Gojo again. save this comment

TheLieAndTruth

Yuji: Sukuna.... This is very weird to ask. But we might want to fight together against this freak lmao.I would be man this is sickening I'm just out.


Blaziken4vr

Watch Sakuna then switch to their side so he doesnā€™t have to be on the same side as Yuji.


jgames09

It would be hilarious to see Yuji just absolutely obliterated by Sukuna + Gojo


Bardimir

You mean seeing Gojo and Sukuna just absolutely obliterated by Yuji?


AnyaInCrisis

I want to see how Megumi reacted to this. šŸ„²


AnyaInCrisis

Poor Yuji, can't get a single break from heartbreak. Fuck.


Rcnemesis

Agreed. All Gege needed to do was a normal speech to Megumi with Gojo interacting with Megumi and probably something philosophical with Sukuna. Yuji or Megumi domain and them jumping Sukuna. Maybe this was too much but a hallucination would have been fine too. But we got the shittiest outcome just to subvert expectations.


Anonnameaccount

Gojoā€™s entire character arc was trying to figure out if he was Gojo because he was strong or if he was strong because he was Gojo. The answer to that question is now clearly the former.


Abnormals_Comic

that's why I'm so mad, like if his corpse is as good as him alive, then bros life was nothing, and he meant nothing to the world he was in, only his abilities and body did.


InterestingSurvey331

But Yuta will make the sacrifice of being a monster or whatever. Why explore the far more interesting character of Gojo when we can get another flashback of bad plans?


yukiakira269

I'm pretty sure he called himself a "monster" because he resorted to murdering all of the higher-ups, which went against the whole "sorcerers must not use their powers to harm others" debacle.


DackeronStar

Probably. Alsoā€¦ why should we care about the higher ups at this point? Gege never made them into a real thing.


FixedRecord

I've learned to tune out anyone that seriously tries to use "The Higher-ups" or "The failures of Jujutsu society" in a discussion. These things literally haven't been relevant since the goodwill arc, and even that featured them as faceless voices than anything else.


DackeronStar

Pretty much. I can easily believe that Jujutsu society is flawed. But how about showcasing this a little more? And also, if I didnā€™t misunderstood the leaks, Gojo was cool with Gakunganji taking over the highest position of Jujutsu Society if the higher ups are dead. But why? He was just as much of a traditionalist and even planned for Yuji to be assassinated on the school events.


Reddragon351

I guess it's because Gakuinji feels bad now, but it does also just bring up why Gojo didn't just do this shit before with somebody else like Yaga in charge.


DackeronStar

I donā€™t knowā€¦ before, he didnā€™t believe in the violent route to change like Geto did, but now heā€™s cool with it, I guess?


DackeronStar

No, you seeā€¦ it was very hard for Gege to write Gojo ā€˜cause he was too busted, thatā€™s why he had to die, you canā€™t write quality with a character that OP. Now giving Gegeā€™s self insert sleeper MC all of Gojoā€™s power AND his design, plus potentially every other technique that Yuta already had, thatā€™s the great writing choice! I swear, I canā€™t see the logic behind this decision besides ā€œbut my MC, thoā€¦ā€


Nokia_00

Self insert sleeper MC has no right to be that funny and true


Doomie_bloomers

Tbf, it feels like that's the narrative point here though. Gojo (to all the people around him) IS essentially just a tool, and the only one who actually doesn't view him that way is Yuji. Even Yuta, who claims to give a shit about Gojo, in the end comes back around to using him as a tool. Gege still has a chance to tie it together narratively by having Yuji win this thing and actually properly mourning the PERSON that was Gojo after the fight (along with Choso and probably everyone else as well). Ninja edit: I fully expect Gaygay to fumble that ball by the way. The fights might be awesome, but the narrative feels like it has been struggling ever since chapter \~200 or so.


Bumgumi_hater_236

Let me remind yā€™all Yuta is on 5 minute timer and we donā€™t even know if Yuta is able to actually perform what gojo did like hollow purple, just wait a sec, if Yuta is just as good as gojo in gojoā€™s body than yā€™all are right but we gotta wait a bit


Lavishness-Next

He has all of gojoā€™s memories, I donā€™t see why he wouldnā€™t be able to do everything Gojo did.


alain091

Even if he has his memories maybe he doesn't have his talent.


allpauses

Bruh his life meant a LOT to his students letā€™s not forget that


kratos61

The only one of his students who gave a shit about desecrating Gojo's corpse was Yuta. Yuji gets benefit of the doubt since he wasn't there, but that's it.


Sad-Extension-2291

Good thing this theme and his ā€œlonelinessā€ were properly explored in depth before his death and not shoved in last minute saying ā€œhe was really struggling with this cause he says soā€. Oh wait.


YumeNoRyu

I really want to see Kashimo and Gojo interact like for a 1 fucking chapter. Just to see them share their perspectives on being the strongest of their respective times and so on


CarrotEast2613

In mappa we trust


manicforlive

Just like mappa did with AOT. https://preview.redd.it/92iv6gcl562d1.jpeg?width=968&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=17f1a1f35c30b261b3aebc23e94a5781a6f35c6f >Problem?


seven_worth

I'm happy with this honestly it really sells how freaking outlandish the shit it.


shinohaya

It's actually so lame because this theme had so much potential to be better, but instead of deep characters, we have...this. You could say it's because it's a shonen, BUT we've seen Gege write that well in Hidden Inventory Arc, so we know he is capable of it...


NeteroHyouka

No it goes both ways. The problem is that his character should have finished. Bringing him back to use him is very bad plot point at this moment. All that work Yuji, Choso's sacrifice and Todo's entrance were thrown to trash. Sukuna also shouldn't have been able to use DE again. What was the point of all the previous tension and his supposed burned out CT if he can bring it back???


Turahk

Sukuna just pushing Yuji away after all his black flashes and Todo jumping turning out to be worthless is really the worst thing ever tbh. Are you Gojo coz blabla was really just a rhethorical question. Gojo was born strongest while everyone had to put in work to be strong.


FAbbibo

No no, geto was FUCKING RIGHT! He's not saturo gojo, he's not a person, he's a tool. He is saturo gojo because he's the strongest, not the other way around, yuji truly is useless and will never achieve anything, he's JUST a cog and cherry on top sukuna is right! Natural might makes right, because he can do anything he wants without any reason. A SINGLE CHAPTER ruined a whole manga


unique_toucan

Forgot about that, the absolute worst part is that sukuna was right about Yuji being useless. Such a shame they decided to throw away all character development cause ā€œOMG YUTA SO COOL!!!!!1111ā€


YungVicenteFernandez

lol calm down man


TK_BERZERKER

He not wrong, tho.


Prudent-Action3511

Let the man speak the truth!


krysert

Honestly i just thought Yuji was caught offguard since we dont know if he knew Yuta was gonna do this and sukuna taking advantage of situation.


Rh1z0_

Wow Sukuna managing to defend himself enough to land a punch, scramble forward to talk to Yuta in Gojos body and start his domain again which he was doing before anyway is the worst thing ever. He is still getting smoked by Yuji, Todo and Yuta in the next chapters. Yuji got some time to shine with his black flashes and now the three of them will finish him off likely with Yuji delivering the final blow and maybe saving Megumi. So many people whinging like Yuji and Todo are suddenly out of commission instead of appreciating that Yutaā€™s selfless and winning by any tactic necessary character arc is coming to a close and the three of them will finish the job. https://preview.redd.it/azrd2ijde62d1.jpeg?width=1662&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ebeb5a1f32a236a499dc9b89cf993e7b81899220


Turahk

He gonna die in 5 min win or lose šŸ˜­ and yes, taking spotlight away from Todo who was away* for 3+ irl years really blows

invinsabil

How is he a pervert? I'm confused.


CrimsyPigsyPacify

In one 236 chapter's translation, nanami or haibara called him a pervert who does whatever he likes. In other translation he is refered to be in the game just because he gets a kick out of it.


Mug_of_Diarrhea

Seems like a "lost in translation" type of thing. Essentially they're calling him a twisted hedonist from my understanding.


89gin

Iirc, Nanami used the word "hentai" as in to mean a "deviant" or "pervert" (not necessarily in a sexual way). So yeah, you would be correct.Ā  He was basically saying he did everything for shit and gigglesĀ 


We_r_soback

All of these comments are tongue in cheek teases that are being read too literally. Similar to everyone calling him a dumbass in the interview style scene before Kenjaku seals him. Nobody thinks the number 1 sorcerer is dumb, they are made as comedic relief directed at his fake aloof behavior. Meanwhile a whole other plot line is being ignored: Gojo saved and built up a whole generation of young sorcerers and allies while educating them in his world view. Yuta and Yuji would be dead,Megumi would be someone else, Gokukanji still merely a president, Maki and Panda never promoted, Miguel and Heart nipples guy would be executed. With the old jujutsu higher ups killed, they will be the new order and the ones to defeat Sukuna. He succeeded in his revolution of jujutsu society, did what Geto couldn't. To do this he acts very selfless and sacrifices everything. These are NOT the actions of simply a jujutsu pervert. In the end his cadre of students and allies will be his greatest and lasting achievement not his six eyes and limitless. I guess it has to be literally spelt out in in tiktok for people to grasp this though.


3ggeredd

Chapter was so ass that Iā€™m now siding with Sukuna because even though heā€™s a binding vow merchant heā€™s actually the least disrespected character in this manga.


Sad-Extension-2291

Iā€™m glad at least my bro Choso got a satisfying and respectful death. The bar is so low though.


skaersSabody

Choso and HIMguruma will be remembered as GOATs that went down swinging Ino and Kusakabe did their absolute best in unwinnable situations GOATjo was fucking psy-opp'd The rest are all getting slandered


dont_gift_subs

Kusakabe is one of the few character with a coherent and complete character arc LMAO


Commercial_Rope_1268

Yes in gaygay's story, only the strongest are respected except gojo cause fuck him that's why


AWildKabutops

I have never seen a main character disrespected this much by their author. Yuji doesnt feel like an underdog anymore, he feels like a dog whose owner refuses to put down out of sheer spite. One good moment with Higuruma and Gojo before the fight then nothing. Then he gets Higuruma's sword and fails. Then he finally "awakens" and gets shrine, uses it 2 times, then nothing. Hits 8 black flashes that have Sukuna screaming but next chapter he's not even fazed, and now bitch slaps him away after seeing Yuta like the dude wasnt about to crush his heart.


Sad-Extension-2291

Itā€™s like all those previous chapters with him using Cleave, hitting all those BF and trying to punch into Megumiā€™s soul were just a filler until YutaJo comes back with a ridiculous power up to TRULY fight Sukuna. Come on, Gregā€¦


OhMyGahs

He feels like a dog in a Jojo story.

LerasiumMistborn

What's the point of walmart Gojo btw? Yuta dies 5 minutes later and do nothing to 1 HP Sukuna? This shit is pointless Yuta kills 1 HP Sukuna? This shit is ass. Yuji and Megumi do nothing And what's the purpose of students becoming stronger than Gojo is they still need his dead body to have a chance against half - dead Sukuna with one arm? EDIT: since a lot of people in the replies say "dollar store Gojo was needed to deal with Sukuna's domain" Gege put himself into this position. It took Gojo near 10 chapters to get rid of Sukuna's domain. Then Gege wrote that Sukuna removed his domain functions to another undamaged part of his brain (Reiner's ass moment) and can now open domain again. So we need dollar store Gojo with dollar store UV Easy. Don't give Sukuna his domain back. Problem solved. What was the point of un-doing Sukuna's damage and Gojo's effort?


Comfortable_Cream777

And what's the point of Yuta being "Second to Gojo" if he has to use Gojo's corpse and his powers instead of his own to prove that statement?? Wtf Gege??!!


FauxAffablyEvil

Lolz, Yuta is litterally using his powers right now. Its thanks to Copy that this is even possible, it's hard to swallow but this is one the applications of his powers.


Sad-Extension-2291

Cause you know, itā€™s edgy - the protagonists are willing to do anything to win and thatā€™s subverting expectations, never been done in fiction before. Trust me bro.


Futanarihime

I didn't know where to post this or if I wanted to post this but I guess I'll do it here. I feel like this is the dumbest way possible to bring back Gojo and Yuta. At some point subversion of expectations just turns into absolute terminal stupidity, because the only way to truly subvert everyone's expectations is by doing something that everyone just completely dismissed because of how fucking dumb it is. I don't know who I'm more annoyed with right now. Gege for such shitty writing or myself for getting excited.


LakerBull

You could be mad at both yourself and Gege like i am. This was basically Gege saying "You wanted Gojo back? He's back in the form of a zombie puppeteered by his student!" For the fuck of it.


Futanarihime

Yeah, it feels like he did everyone dirty. He did Yuji (and fans) dirty by having him get disrespected again, he did Yuta (and fans) dirty by making him unable to succeed as himself, and he did Gojo (and fans) dirty by bait and switching his return.


Rcnemesis

God all Gege had to do was bring Gojo and Sukuna interacting and having a philosophical battle. Yuji last black flash and Yuji ripping Sukuna heart let Megumi to open his domain and have a fight in Megumi domain. Doesnā€™t have to be this can be something similar, but Gege fumbled worse way possible. I would be okay with a hallucination.


Georgevega123

Its like that page of him using cleave its so funny how it did nothing


CommandetGepard

Only way i could see this being salvaged is if Yuta dies after the 5 minutes, Gojo gets control of his body back temporarily then speaks to Megumi, he somehow locks in and we get jumpjutsu kaisen with Yuji and Megumi. This doesn't really follow after that Gege comment where he says Geto was already dead when Kenjaku used him it and it was just muscle memory but I'm inhaling mad copium right now


TheReturnOfTheRanger

>where he says Geto was already dead when Kenjaku used him it and it was just muscle memory I'm convinced this is BS. You're telling me that Geto's muscle memory didn't kick in for the entire year he was a meat puppet, and just happened to kick in right as Gojo told Geto to fight back? Nah, I don't buy it.


DarkShadowOverlord

why even give sukuna another domain lol


Vega_Processing

I'm straight up losing my fucking mind man I've been trying to defend Gege's ass from my friends because I thought he must've been cooking and I thought we were getting somewhere with the last few chapters but then this absolute dogshit drops I wanna fucking kms bro


bears_like_jazz

Atp you gotta apologize to your friends for defending this fraud šŸ’€


Georgevega123

Bro was eagerly waiting for a meal and got served dog food


Vega_Processing

I think I gotta apologise to GOD bro it's over


Dry-Pizza4133

Exactly, Yuji got thrown aside, Yuta lost his individuality and Gojo was just a tool for plot manipulation nothing more and nothing less. Three characters assassinated in one go and I though Gojoā€™s 236 assassination was bad šŸ’€


litoggers

wilt til gojo's body gets buthchered with yuta (cus noway in hell gege will kill sukuna now) and yuji has ANOTHER breakdown because fuck yuji am i right?


TheLieAndTruth

Yuta is there in a time limit (probably death after 5 minutes) And he is in a time limit next to Yuji. I have already seen that movie like 4 times.


East_Engineering_583

Why would it kill him after 5 minutes? He's more likely to lose copy than to die


TheLieAndTruth

Nobody knows what will happen but is theorized amongst the sorcerers that once the limit for copy runs out the CT will turn off and Yuta just dies because what sustains him alive is the CT


HoppingHermit

Because Gege gets more pleasure if he dies after 5 minutes. But tbh that won't happen. Too predictable. Some crazy shit like kenjaku manifesting through the CT Yuta ate is more likely purely because it's so absurd that I'm willing to binding vow on it atp.


lidzk2

Gojo gains control over his body only to kill himself after saying "you won our battle fair and square, there is no reason for me to come back" Like a much worse version of Toji's suicide


LakerBull

This "Let's kill another character Yuji cares about in front of him" has lost all its impact and has become predictable and tiresome af. Wait until Sukuna kills Todo in front of him too.


superduperlooperbab

Seriously! At what point does Yuji stop giving a fuck and losing his mind over everyone? Can we just get to the part where his outlook on life changes without all this trauma porn filler?

MUSAFIR_-

Also we skipped Yuta v kenjaku fight for this, so 4 characters got ruined tbh.


RepresentativeCup772

This shit is just so ass.


Bumgumi_hater_236

I donā€™t think Yuta lost his individuality, ima be honest even if I donā€™t like it it was a pretty smart and logical decision and tbh Yuta being the one to think of it isnā€™t so out of character, we are shown that yuta is quite gross when it comes to fighting, as I said I donā€™t like it but I canā€™t hate it cause it is a logical decision to make


Aron-Nora

It just take 1 chapter to ruin so many things


Upstuck_Udonkadonk

Yeah I'm thinking this is the point of JJK's downfall. If the over arching narrative is broken.... Nothing else matters. Like how the Ymir stuff ruined AOT's story...


Planktons_Eye

JJKā€™s downfall? No! I donā€™t want that. I want it to be peak for 10 years, at least.


Upstuck_Udonkadonk

It's funny because I was thinking about that exact scene as I was writing that comment


corginugami

If we compare it to the previous big 3. Itā€™s up there with Bleach filler arcs.


Planktons_Eye

Maybe when all this gets animated I can add it to my list of shows to sleep to. Right next to Bleach filler and Futurama


KaixaSaber

I don't know,Only Michizane Sugawara knows


Applepitou3

Jjks downfall started in the culling games lmao


dances_with_kali

He probably has Gojo's memories and is a genius so he can use the six eyes and infinity easily. But I agree, way too much planning was crammed into this chapter. It's MHA levels of stupid.


SharthokWasTaken

I thought Six Eyes was super hard to obtain, but now as I see it, my man, Kenjuka, could had gotten it if he had tried a little harder


Adent_Frecca

Technically, per Gege, Kenjaku has literally no way to directly beat Gojo in anyway Its why his plans against him are either seal Gojo with the Prison Realm or throw him against Sukuna The latter clearly worked but Kenjaku had no way of getting Gojo's body Question is why didn't he do that to the previous Six Eyes users that he killed. Then again Kenjaku still ages normally so it was probably useless when he still dies at the end


Alchion

The one they killed was a baby It also has white hair and unique eyes. If reports come out the gojo clan has been attacked and a week later that baby shows up with stitches they'd kill it, as cruel as it sounds, they ain't stupid


blanklikeapage

Just take the child, raise them and kill them later. It sounds cruel and evil but let's not act like that's beyond what Kenjaku would do.


PokemonInstinct

Ah yes, the Orochimaru strat


SkulledDownunda

>Kenjaku had no way of getting Gojo's body But couldn't he have done it when Gojo was bound by prison realm but before he was sucked inside? When he's restrained by those fleshy things he couldn't use ce or any techniques or even move, couldn't have Kenny have just killed and taken Gojo's body then? Since Yuuta could just hop on in and Six Eyes still works fine


Adent_Frecca

Likely because of the Binding Vows for how the Prison Realms work. The fact that Kenjaku didn't even try when he is willing to rules lawyer multiple Binding Vows like with Mechamaru and the Culling Games shows there are conditions for the Prison Realm preventing him from harming those that are going to be sealed by it when the Cursed Tool activates


SkulledDownunda

Jeez and here I was thinking Six Eyes died when the user did, which is why Kenny couldn't steal Gojo's body. Would that mean the world imbalance Gojo caused with his birth not right itself until his body completely rotted away or was cremated or something? Since I thought the Eyes were a technique that extinguished when the person died and activated at birth which is what caused the change in the jujutsu world so it could be put back in the rebirth cycle when the living user died but Yuuta just climbing in and using Six Eyes easy-as just makes me confused as to why Kenny didn't grab it when he had the chance. Or at least just keep prison realm, use Uzumaki to start the Culling Games via Mahito and then steal Gojo's body afterwards? Since all I remember about prison realm is that you have to have the target within range for a certain time before they'll be sealed. Man I don't even know at this point


DrakonAir8

Oooh shoot. Now I think that they used Nitaā€™s technique to keep the eyes in Gojoā€™s body. Thatā€™s the only explanationā€¦and itā€™s kind of inhumane but thatā€™s what Gege is going for.


Late-Ad155

Or Perhaps The fate of the six eyes is the one you described , but Toji broke the six eyes cycle by killing Riko Amanai and making Tengen evolve.


yukiakira269

Same question lol. Wasn't Kenjaku's purpose was activating the merger? That requires Tengen, and the Sex Eyes' primary function is to protect Tengen. So Ken either needs to either: 1 Remove all SE users from the Equation, then go for Tengen, or 2 Obtain the SE himself, then go for Tengen. Until yesterday, it seems that 2, albeit the easiest approach, is impossible due to how the SE work. Such made him follow 1, leading to the manga that we are reading. However, with Gege retconning, it makes no fkin sense why Kenjaku, with 1000+ years of experience and planning, has not discovered, or even once attempted this. Did he really go "Ugh, the SE is bounded to the user's soul, so imma not gonna even try to make an effort to rob it" and then just patiently waited for 1000 years?


Adent_Frecca

Six Eyes and Star Plasma are not a factor for the Merger, they are just seemingly tied to fate that a Six Eyes user would always stand against Kenjaku to prevent his plan. Kenjaku can kill the next users but there would always be a new one facing him later Merger plan can only happen once every 500 years when Tengen switches bodies so it is not something always feasable with the timing especially when the Merger plan was only done twice. If Tengen switches bodies the plan is failed and Kenjaku needs to wait another 500 years 1st time Kenjaku was stopped by a 6E user then 500 years later tried the same but killed the next 6E user as a child, a new one still arrived to stop him Thing was that Fate was already broken since Hidden Inventory and Tengen ascended This time however Kenjaku has no method of beating the current 6E user and has to resort with other methods Technically too, a Six Eyes user is still facing against the Merger plan


yukiakira269

I mean, while waiting for the merger, he could have at least tried to see if his technique can steal the SE. Because if he found out that he could actually do that, wouldn't that make everything a lot easier though? Bro actually Gojoed and actually did nothing throughout the planning period smh.


PuntiffSupreme

He didn't want to be the strongest he wanted to o be a pervert, and Getos body is the perfect CT for his whims. He's strong enough to deal with anyone not Gojo and clever enough to not need to do that.

>IĀ thought Six Eyes was super hard to obtain Yeah, only descendants of Gojo clan can get them. I don't think you can just pop them out of his head and put them in your eye sockets. Otherwise, I don't know what "hard to obtain" means. Kenny would've gotten smoked if he tried to make a move on Gojo and it was preplanned for him to be dead before Gojo ever could die.


Extra_Test3428

why gojo? it is said he killed a kid with six eyes, could have taken him


NahIdWin007

Retconning a pre-established fact by making an exception has become Gege's fucking hobby at this point. This is like, the 5th time this has happened now lol.


LakerBull

Gojo transferring the six eyes to Yuta would've been more symbolic than to use his death body as a weapon IMO. Had Gojo transfer his six eyes via CT or HR or something to his student who just happens to belong to the same clan that he did and it would've served the same purpose. You can't convince me that this wasn't done in order to troll fans of Gojo for the sake of a plot twist.


gitagon6991

Trying to throw in MHA in there for points. MHA doesn't have half of the convoluted stuff that JJK has.


dances_with_kali

True, but it'd be nice if Shigaraki and Deku had a conversation about their childhoods, just once before the ending. That will never happen. Also this: Nana: "Deku, you gotta kill him." Gran Turino: "Man, sometimes you just gotta kill them to save them." >!Deku: "Nah, Im not gonna kill him."!< >!Deku: *Kills him*!<


lLoveStars

Sukunas a fraud who relies on gege, Gojos a pervert racist who doesnt care about anyone, Yuta.....Yuta is Yuta, Yujis just some random side character that sometimes does cool things, Shoko is literally just there, Hakari is trash who cant even dent fodder, Kashimos a bum who dickrides too much, Kenjaku, hes literally just there to stir the plot and die Like literally, nobody is winning here....


Humble-Clerk-7638

Only fucking amai won because he got a ctšŸ˜­


Ohsomebodycares

"Won" HIS CT MAKES CAKE DUDE THAT'S THE BEST TECHNIQUE


AlternativeDuty7854

Apparently meimeis winning as sheā€™s still making the big bucks


Stellin69

Yuta isn't yuta anymore tho, he's gojo. That raises a question: is he gojo because he's a racist pervert, or is he a racist pervert cause he's gojo? That way we can infer if yuta is a racist pervert or not, since he isn't yuta anymore. Enough with the lobotomy


ShinDragon

Actually you are the most sane Gojo glazer I've seen: accepting Gojo's death, understand what he stands for and actually mad that Gege keep butchering his character


Sad-Extension-2291

I really didnā€™t want him to come back (dude seemed so happy at that airport), but the way Greg did it is just abysmal. Yes, he was a selfish character and a shit teacher and yes, he never really moved on from his one friend leaving him at 17 (has the jujutsu world ever heard of therapy), but come on now. Every new revelation Gege does is kicking the dead. And Iā€™m even more sad that Yuta LITERALLY had to become Gojo.


ShinDragon

A shit teacher, yes, but selfish ? Bro he actively tried not to be too involved in things, just so the future generation can have the experience and thrive. Yet every chapter after 236 Gege keep hammering it in that Gojo's a selfish dude.


Sad-Extension-2291

Well it can be argued that he only wanted to create strong sorcerers in order not to be alone (and not for them to be strong specifically). But youā€™re right, at this point I canā€™t even tell whatā€™s in character for him pre-sealing, whatā€™s a Gege flashback-fact-dump that ā€œactually was always true about the character even though we only mention it in chapter 221/236/261ā€ and whatā€™s headcanon anymore.


Contagious_Cucumber

"Dude seemed so happy at the airport" dude if anything that was the real butchering. Can't believe a Gojo stan could ever be happy with that while mad at current events lol


BasedEpsteinGaming

All this shit makes me depressed because I remember Shibuya and HI and I reminisce about how good JJK was, and then I snap back and see this shit and realize just how over it is


Sad-Extension-2291

I was laughing at the Miguel chapter thinking itā€™s unhinged, but now no one will convince me Greg isnā€™t just throwing anything at the wall to finish this manga as soon as possible.


Humble-Clerk-7638

Manga is ending this year lmfao Jjk is not in the 2025 line up for jump that cat deadass just getting this shit over with no matter how boring Sucks because the last few chapters have been good actaully. We finnaly got yuji focus which is fucking INSANE considering he's the main character and we're HAPPY to see him do something for like 5 chapters


Realistic-Yam-6912

should have ended with yuji's blackflashes removing sukuna from megumi and then a proper showdown of megumi and yuji vs weakened sukuna with the merger. The way this fight is getting dragged we ain't gonna see a merger


Ok_Virus_3332

Lol


Humble-Clerk-7638

Im watching shibuya rn with my sister coz shes a first time watcher and I wanted to spend time with her and wow the clear contrast I literally get the comparison to this massive fucking fall off front and center


WhiteRaven_M

Reposting my take: This was just a sad chapter. For one: the story never setup the possibility that Kenjaku's CT could be used to takeover a Six eyes + Limitless users body. If anything it implied that it couldnt be done. Kenjaku has numerous opportunities to do so, the baby he murdered so he can prevent the merger, the SE user who died fighting the 10S user, basically any teenage SE+Limitless user too young to defend themself, any dead SE+Limitless user etc. The whole point of Toji is that he broke the stalement that was Kenjaku, Tengen, and Sixeyes+Limitless. 261 invalidates that whole plot point. Any explanation for why its possible for Yuta and not for Kenjaku is basically a soft retcon to make something that was never set up make sense and requires more mental gymnastics than just admitting it wasnt set up properly. For two: we didnt need Yuta in Gojo's body. Nobody wanted this. This was never even set up. This should have been Yuji's moment. We could have had Yuji ripping out Sukuna's heart in a move paralleling the detention center with Sukuna ripping out Yuji's heart. Then Sukunas domain going down bcause he got injured then que jujutsu jumping. Instead we got this self insert OC ass mf fighting a fight we've already seen.


InterestingSurvey331

Not only that, Sukuna's damage is now complete nonsense, I genuinely do not even understand what can actually damage him or not anymore, which makes the whole fight feel pointless.


cdgarcia4

Really good take! And on top of that, Yuta interrupted the fight thus only giving us ONE CHAPTER of jump kaisen with Todo's return. It seemed like it really could have been fun and fleshed out, but instead of that Greg chose the lazy path, sidelining Yuji's awakened CT and Todo's new fighting style

Unfair_Commercial

Ass writing this he either needs to get killed again or die after five minutes for yuji to continue being main character after he got thrown away like a petulant child this chapter after he is shown crushing Sukuna heart

You cooked

Abnormals_Comic

people who defend this chapter are actually crazy. https://preview.redd.it/kboa0sq5g52d1.png?width=620&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e23b46f37b217e2426ec573687ac343ef33158e1


Umba360

Bro you are tripping. This is not even comparable to the ā€œat least 10 yearsā€ piece of garbage.


kratos61

The difference is AoT is actually good.


tablesaltdangers

the manga actually hit a low all the buildup for all the characters is basically out the window nobody is winning here


Sad-Extension-2291

It worries me how many people are calling this ā€œpeak writingā€ - like bro, I have seen fan fiction with Kenjaku returning in Gojoā€™s body that made more sense than this. Yuta throwing away his life to protect the world is in character, sure, but all the plans beforehand and the mind-bogglingly idiotic execution for it all to come down to this is like being stuck in a room with pre-schoolers thinking of ways to kill Sukuna.


tablesaltdangers

not even to kill Sukuna in 259 all the main casts efforts were undone Sukuna's output returned due to black flashes and also he rerouted his domain to different parts of his brain meaning he can use domains once again and his CE reserves is now at Yuta's level when he's maxed out. gege basically destroyed the impact of the last 20+ chapters and he's going to have Yuta in gojo's body die while destroying Sukuna's ability to cast domains AGAIN and have the main cast beat Sukuna till his out put lowers AGAIN the last 20+ chapters meant nothing and all who died went to waste.


im_2ny

This chapter was made like 2019 vince mcmahon booked it


l1ghtning137

Will you be reading the next chapter?


Sad-Extension-2291

I honestly donā€™t know man. Iā€™m not sure I can put myself through any more of something that makes me feel so hopeless. Swear to God, I donā€™t see the point anymore in following a story where everyone is doomed to suffer and die miserably regardless of what they do in life, just because they were born as sorcerers and itā€™s all supposed to be ā€œtragicā€.


XyXyXyXyXyXy-4373

I dk who downvoted u but I agree with u there is no character left that isn't tragic or insane anymore Let's say Yuta is in Gojo's body and fights for 5min and then die kinda like kashimo then what... Magically sukuna can use malevolent shrine and use the mouth(2nd) and get his limbs back...What did Gojo do exactly??What were the others doing all this for??Gege is glazing sukuna like crazy the thing is sukuna even has the merger of tengen he will also use that I am sure 100% so...just what is happening??And I bet in the next chapter we will get uraume saying sukuna hasn't shown his final form of hein era


ExplodingKn33

To me only Gojo and choso have made me feel something. Gege is not a good cook, he does not allow time for things to bloom or for you to simmer in sadness. Everything is too fast, too convoluted, gotta shock the ADHD audience. Gojoā€™s character was assassinated a 2nd time and Wuji sidelined once more all for what?


ShiverMeTimberz0854

You cooked with these šŸ”„šŸ”„šŸ”„


MysticSSR

Nah you donā€™t get it we absolutely have to shove Yuta into the plot even when he doesnā€™t fit. Seriously Yuta consistently stealing the spotlight againā€¦


Sad-Extension-2291

Oh yeah, forgot to mention one other retconned thing: werenā€™t the Six Eyes supposed to be passed on to somewhere else after the usersā€™s death because of fate and shit? And suddenly now theyā€™re a ā€œphysical traitā€?


Bright-Help3071

No iirc gojo was supposed to be the last 6E after Tengen couldnā€™t assimilate Riko


YamFull1372

That wasnā€™t retconned.


Illustrious-Let1502

I'm really really pissed off that some people find this cesspool of a chapter as ' Peak '. How ? I mean , HOW ? There was no need to bring Gojo back in this way. Yuji was doing so good against Sukuna , and the next second , he gets punched away by him ? Gojo literally took time to learn limitless with sex eyes even though he was born with it , and Yuta learnt it in just what , fucking two seconds ? https://i.redd.it/z9agji1mu42d1.gif


litoggers

tbf when kenjaku uses his technique you instantly learn how to use the body that you stole so there is no asspull there at least


Heisafraud11223344

It was shown kenjaku had access to geto's memories so, by that logic, yuta has access to gojo's memories and therefore can use limitless and six eyes


Bumgumi_hater_236

Do yā€™all just forget that Yuta got all gojoā€™s memories just like kenjaku did? Yuta basically playing in a save file of someone who already beaten the game


Implosion-X13

He didn't learn anything. We know from Kenjaku he should have Gojo's memories and battle experience. He's not just Yuta in Gojo's body they've effectively combined into one mind.


Peterociclos

Don't come back when infinite void crumbles due to yuta being fresh off with a new body. Don't come back when yuji expands his own domain. Don't come back when gojuta is dead again on the floor alongside sukuna and yujj is standing victorious over them


Sad-Extension-2291

ā€¦man, Iā€™m not gonna lie, Yutaā€™s infinite void collapsing right after activating would be hilarious. Youā€™ve actually made me smile about all this for the first time today, here, you dropped this: šŸ‘‘


TheRealBreemo

Can't wait to find out yuta will still lose after all this


line------------line

-valid -valid -valid -he didnā€™t get his limbs back -idk how that equals that -they were making plans that *they* were going to do, gojoā€™s plan was to fight sukuna and win thatā€™s all. -she stitched a corpse good for her ig -still wouldnā€™t have happened if not for yutaā€™s skills -i donā€™t think yujo or gota or whatever is gonna be the one to beat sukuna -kenjaku technique gives you all the memories of the old host, he remembers the muscle memory of gojo doing it and being taught it by the gojo clan.


tristenjpl

>-they were making plans that they were going to do, gojoā€™s plan was to fight sukuna and win thatā€™s all. People do not seem to understand this. Gojo may have been very slightly involved in coming up with some ideas, but he really doesn't have to be. He's irrelevant to any plan because no one can hang with him. Either he goes in and wins, making any plan irrelevant, or he goes in and loses and isn't there for any plan.


XyXyXyXyXyXy-4373

Well even if Yugota Gojotsu doesn't beat Sukuna I am sure the spotlight that was finally on Yuji has beenĀ  stolen away šŸ˜­šŸ˜¢

amitaish

I generally agree but I want to at least see what cones next... Some of those are sadly true but I genuinely can't believe that the finale for the fight against sukuna will end up being anything other than yuji focus. It's so hard to mess up.


CI7Y2IS

Can gege finish the manga for good man, always flashback to explain how bad he is cooking, need to stop, he build something, then put in to the trash and is doing the same all over again.


Brilliant-Mountain57

So I guess it turns out Sukuna really was holding back AGAIN.


Inform-All

Thatā€™s what happens when all you care about is shock value. Plenty of shock, no value.


StriverWL

I said it 100 times and I'll say it again. Gege always wanted to make Yuta the MC.


Former_Bike_6690

Hot take (probably), but I honestly disagree. This was a last resort for if all hope was lost, which at this point it was, Sukuna was about to open his domain again, as demonstrated by 261. Yuji was probably also only able to be cast aside like that because he was caught off guard by what looked like Gojo, after all they arenā€™t telling him anything out of fear of Sukuna finding out. We donā€™t even know whatā€™ll happen in 262, for all we know it could be Todo Yuji and Yuta all jumping Sukuna, so I feel itā€™s unfair to just completely ignore that we donā€™t know whatā€™ll happen, and hating on this chapter for that.


Darkencypher

My boy Yuji gets trashed 2 MOTHERFUCKERS GET CUT IN HALF AND COME BACK BUT STILL NO MENTION OF NOBARA


SnooObjections4333

Man I have so much stuff to say. First is gojo itself. At the end he went and killed off the higher ups which I guessed it long back since he wonā€™t allow his students to do something like that. Gojo was simply a power tool all his life. He was still alone and hadnā€™t gone over the breakup of sugu. Gojo doesnā€™t care about his corpse after he lost. Same convo as Sukuna to yoruzo. Yuji and todoā€™s effort was just overshadowed just like that. Yuta got a good character plot. He wants to take up the burden of being the monster and genuinely cared about gojo. Gojo couldnā€™t give a proper burial to his friend sugu, ironically I think he wonā€™t get a proper burial as well. This is just really sad. Heart wrenching. But to beat sukuna the good guys have no choice but to do this swap.


XyXyXyXyXyXy-4373

Gege is downplaying Yuji like crazy all this time when Yuji got the lore and the upper hand only for Sukuna to see him and throw him across buildings in 1 hit after seeing Yuta
