[yuukacross]

You mean the Watsonian reason we haven''t seen Yuuka's technique is bc the Gojo clan WOULDN'T LET HER USE HER OWN CT?!?!

Yuuka baby it's time to follow in your Grandma's footsteps

ok some random thoughts from the past few days that im not gonna tag with any specific chapter bc fuck knows i dont wanna go back and check the numbers lmao

When nanami dies in front of yuuji, as he is telling him his last words (“yuuji, youve got it from here”) he thinks to himself “no dont say that, it’ll just turn into a curse for him.” I think HE personally meant it metaphorically but its eerily similar to what his grandpa told him before he died (he said something along the lines of “live well help people blablabla… im giving you this curse”). So while non-sorcerers cant turn directly into curses (rather the small amounts of CE they leak out accumulates to become curses, over time and with many people), AND we didn’t see nanami turn into a curse (also bc hes not the type of guy to resent dying, we literallysaw him be bitter but ultimately at peace with the decisions that brought him to his death), its still potentially relevant how now more than one persons “dying wish” has “cursed” yuuji.

Do megumi’s shikigami count as parts of his soul? he didn’t feel the white dog die in the jail so obviously theyre not like a part of him or anything, but if for instance mahito touched idk the dog, would he be able to do idle transfiguration through it? the rship btw a shikigami and its user is still sort of opaque. For instance, geto tried to absorb the worm that toji used to store his weapons but he failed, and in the ch notes gege says its because toji had already established a “master-servant” relationship with it. I dont think that’s through a binding vow necessarily (can a curse without higher intelligence and language even enter a BV?) but still some sort of pact was done, which apparently doesn’t necessarily require CE as toji was able to do it. Then theres for instance yuuta & Rika1. In the fanbook gege says rika is able to see what yuuta sees even if they’re apart, though the opposite is not true (Y cant see what R sees). But still some sort of connection exists there. So would mahito be able to do IT by touching rika? Could he do it to Yaga through one of his cursed dolls? obv this isn’t especially relevant re: mahito bc hes dead lol, but im willing to bet that the minute details of this kind of thing will come up with the sukuna & megumi situation we have on our hands. I cant help but notice that almost every main character has either fought mahito outright or at least met him, with the GLARING exception of megumi, who through various circumstances is never around when mahito shows up. I wonder if thats bc gege is hiding something about the way 10s interacts with the soul. Hmmmm.

One thing thats been puzzling me is that we’re told that when gojo was born the balance of the world was altered bc he was so strong etcetc, so curses started getting much more powerful/higher In level. At the same time though, during the early manga, everytime one of our characters meets someone from the kenjaku squad, or even a finger bearer, they ALWAYS comment on how crazy powerful these curses are and isnt it weird how much stronger curses are these days, like you get the impression that they’re mostly used to dealing with grade 2s and below. So what is the truth???

Ch 217

incarnated sorcerers/cursed spirits have the power to change the body of their vessel????? Also what do they mean this will be better for later. Why would they need to keep tsumiki and megumi’s faces/appearances.

Sukuna straight up shoots shadows at yorozu which i dont recall megumi ever doing. So you can use 10s like that too?

Yorozu references angel’s “commandments”. So they know/know OF them/their god. They also ask about uraume by name.

Sukuna summons divine dogs and they look way more shadowy and theres THREE of them. Even though we know theres 2 dog shkgm and 1 is dead. So definitely you can use 10s way differently than how megumi was using it. I wonder if gojo didn’t know everything 10s can do or if he witheld the information on purpose.

Yorozu asks “is this ur vessels CT?” So SHE doesn’t know the 10s. she also asks what about malevolent shrine implying MS is the name of sukuna’s CT not just his domain. But maybe thats a translation thing.

Sukuna says he wants to “stain” megumi’s “soul” with the sin of killing his sister. I wonder if thats just an expression or a real thing you can do to a soul.

Yorozu CT can recreate any substance she knows “except for special cursed tools.” I wonder what’s special about cursed tools.

Ch 234

So maki says this and at first I thought she meant they were planning on yuta fighting kjk if/when the time comes. But then he replies:

So that’s not it. the “insurance” was definitely something to do with skn. Or megumi?

Gojo knows the names of the next shikigami (deer & tiger) even if megumi didn’t have them. so he probably read about them in some ancient literature or smth. did megumi also know about them? We never see him mentioning them or thinking about them or trying to fight them to get them in his inventory. i wonder if this is more stuff gojo kept from megumi

Mahoraga used cleave?????? Girl wtf is going on

Ch 230

MIMI APPEARANCE!!!!!! baby boy youre a sight for sore eyes.

he took 5 unlimited voids. he took them directly on the soul so he didn’t get any damage on his body (which is still being controlled by sukuna) so i guess technically he couldn’t have died but……. realistically he should have gone insane if not entirely catatonic. holding out hope that seeing all that stuff awakens smth in him/gives him a moment of enlightenment (jjk is all about characters having single AHA! moments and instantly getting much more powerful bc of it, not just in the shonen powers way but also in their psyche, resilience, self assuredness, etc). but seeing the shitty way this manga has been written for the past 20 ish chapters its even odds he never even comes back or just comes back for a tearful deathbed goodbye. Whatever.

Skn says this. not “i had mahoraga adapt to UV by making megumi take the hit” but “i had fushiguro megumi adapt to UV” as if megumi himself has that ability (adaptation to a CT/power) rather than mahoraga. this really is basically skn using mgm as a shikigami like i once predicted even if that prediction was half joke half shipbrain. lmao.

Wait hold on. wtf does this mean. “Process of adaptation” vs “resulting adaptation”?????? Yeah i got nothing.

yay brain time! how does skn know what a prefrontal cortex is. has he beeing studying anatomy since taking over megumi skxkskdkdkfk thats so cute actually. Choosing to believe

okay so I promise this isn’t just me being petty over not being able to cross off that bingo tile yet lol WHY isn’t sukuna using 10s against gojo? We see him used raw CE, physical attacks, and of course his own CT (which, we STILL don’t know what its called. Dismantle and cleave are attacks resulted from his CT, the way like gojo’s ‘hollow purple’ is an attack of his and not his CT. WHAT is sukuna’s CT called and what does it do!?) - anyway, so we see him use everything BUT 10 shadows. Even though ever since taking over megumi’s body he’s been using practically nothing but. and even though we know the 10s (probably mahoraga specifically) was the only thing to ever defeat a limitless + 6e user in battle. and yes it did also kill the 10s user but sukuna has already demonstrated that he can beat mahoraga so it would not be an issue for him. So WHY isnt he using the 10 shadows?
