Gege’s design for Sukuna changing is so tragic to me because this Sukuna genuinely looks like he’d eat the other Sukuna alive

Why I think this statement is a bit of a no-brainer (and a bit overhyped)

Translation-wise the most common I’ve seen is just refering to Yuta in terms of Jujutsu being second to Gojo in the modern era, which I tend to agree with.

Because I mean on paper yeah, he’s second to Gojo in Jujutsu during the modern era.

Biggest CE reserves.

RCT and RCT output.

An incredibly versatile CT.

A Shikigami.

Cursed Tools.

A domain.

He’s just got the full package when it comes to Jujutsu, he’s got basically everything a sorcerer could ever want or gain. Which is what I wholeheartedly believe is what this was trying to say.

But some people take it too far, using this like it's just a ticket to the top when it comes to determining strength when in my opinion it’s just something to get Yuta one foot into the door.

I mean, he’s a rival to Hakari. Someone who’s skill set doesn’t go any further than the application of his CT, relying on brute strength and luck alone. Sukuna gets excited when confronted with the dilemma of Jujutsu vs Body. Yuji spent most of the manga fighting, contesting and even winning in some cases against people with far better understanding of Jujutsu than him with just his body and creativity. Strength is clearly not something that can be defined by Jujutsu skill alone.

Then there’s warriors of other eras who fit outside the parameters set by this statement, Ryu having greater output and endurance, Kashimo having better control and lethality, Yorozu rivaling his versatility while having even better mobility. While not being outright stronger than Yuta, we were shown that even Ryu has a chance of beating Yuta in the right conditions.

Yuta is just someone with decent stats in every category at the end of the day. But that doesn't mean someone with a min-maxed kit can’t get the upper hand on him.

To me, this statement really isn’t the end-all be-all all for Yuta’s scaling, it's just saying that he’s got one of the best all-around Jujutsu kits in the modern era, which can only take you so far. Kenjaku being the greatest example of why Yuta’s spot isn’t undisputed.

Speaking my truth

(In my opinion) there’s genuinely just no fun in debating the other “suicide techniques”, no substance in the slightest.

With Yuki it’s just everyone dying instantly, and if you’re talking about Megumi then you’re just doing Mahoraga vs whoever with extra steps.

With Kashimo’s MBA, you can actually have a genuine back and forth discussion of whether or not he can kill his opponent with what is just his full arsenal locked behind a death timer.

Season 4 confirmed to adapt up to at least 220 (1 chapter before the unsealing)

I think we all know where this season is ending off...

I don't understand why it was ever a debate that this wasn’t a BF exchange

This is literally how it’s framed in the physical manga.

Not even a reading comprehension issue, just a lack of common sense.

There was a time where people would try to convince you that these two punches were equal in strength

Thankfully, Yuji fans only care about Hoodie Man nowadays

Rock paper scissors scaling

Dabura vs Sukuna is probably the most debatable nowadays. In in my opinion, Sukuna’s personality during battle would allow Dabura plenty of room for growth, which when matched with how Dabura seems to immediately go for the kill gives him a great chance to win.

Yuji counters Sukuna. Not much else to say about him without diving into how you interpret the narrative.

(There was not a first version to this post)

Doesn’t this just outright kill the notion that Saitama has infinite AP?

His strength is literally quantifiable and only has a surge in growth when he gets worked up.

Never beating the big fish in a two-inch puddle allegations.

My main problem with the Death Battle episode was that felt more like Shinjuku Yuji vs Denji

With the performance and characterization, I assume Modulo was probably wrapping up by the time the animation was nearing completion and it would take too much time to remake it.

If they had just stuck to Shinjuku Yuji like I assume they planned, the results would have been far more believable imo.

(The flag dodge with made up timeframes and Oregon scaling are straight bs btw)

A mere 0.01 seconds being the difference between life and death for Gojo here is so crazy

I truly believe this moment would have never happened had Sukuna chose to try and outlast Gojo rather than adapt. He still had at least two more domains left in him by the time Gojo broke down.

Rereading the domain clashes it really is crazy to see how many hoops Sukuna was jumping through just so he could say he beat the ultimate defense and strongest sure-hit.

It’s hard to not imagine what an alternate outcome of the fight would look like if Sukuna fought more logically instead of challenging himself like he did.

Btw forgotten doesn’t erase the possibility of them relearning it, but they have to go off what they learn mid-battle without any memories at all of the subject.

Edit: Oh, yeah, almost forgot, Sukuna doesn’t remember Yamata-No-Orochi either.

Any relation to other discussions on this sub are simply coincidence.
