It's funny seeing people say "Itadori should have stuck to jumping" like he didn't hold his own against Choso. Lost the fight, sure, but it's not like he got knocked out the first time Choso landed a hit on him. It took Choso piercing through his body and cutting him up to put him down and even when he put a hole through him the first time, Itadori was still fighting like it was just a scratch.
Regardless if he's winning the fight, Itadori will not make it easy for his opponent. This is a kid who just got to know about the Jujutsu world. Yet in the span of a few months, he adapted fast to it.
Choso is a 150+ years old guy with blooodbending techniques yet Itadori still stood a chance against him.
In any fight Itadori has been in, he has proven just how tough of an opponent he is. Against others who have way more experience and cursed techniques.
Itadori relies on his own strength, speed, agility, and durability with some cursed energy thrown in there. Keep in mind, this kid already was known to be strong and fast as hell BEFORE any of this happen.
When Fushiguro told him "You're surprisingly adept", he wasn't lying.
Let's be honest, if Itadori didn't swallow Sukuna's finger and was already introduced into the Jujutsu world, he could have still been a threat somehow.
"Itadori should have stuck to jumping"...
As if he doesn't put in the effort fighting when he does. Itadori is the kid you want to do group projects with because he will do his part, if not he'd probably do more of it.
I swear people be switching up...
