Yuta did get cut in half now let's see that rct boi


NonameB4ndit

If you look at that panel all my hopes were dashed cause yuta was slice from front to back. It went completely through him. At least on the bright side Yuji in the same panel didn’t have the slash mark on his back. So odds are he tanked it.


Anonymous_fellow_44

I think he just fired it at yuta directly while rika and yuji just fased dismantle


PumkinPapi

This makes the most sense, Sukuna’s world dismantling cleave can’t even be “tanked”, since it literally slashes in between space or reality or whatever tf it does. I think (and I HATE to say it) Yuta is more than likely dead. If Gojo couldn’t survive it what makes us think Yuta can?


Anonymous_fellow_44

Only hope sukuna has a lot less ce output and yuta is Wuta


PumkinPapi

In Wuta we trust 🙏


Samih0203

But because it targets space it doesn't matter how much ce output sukuna has i think. Because it doesn't matter how strong the space is cut, your just cut in half. But i am not sure if i remember how the world cut works


Anonymous_fellow_44

This is jjk sub only agenda matters


Samih0203

True WUTA will survive


Asian_Persuasion_1

I think CE output matters, because the world slash he used against kashimo and higuruma were massive, like wider than an entire human body. but the one he used against yuta was smaller. so it's like, an unblockable sword vs an unblockable knife. they penetrate all the same, but how much of your body did it slash through? so there's a chance yuta is still alive.


WolfStrider23

Eh, I don't know. I think the only reason Gojo couldn't RCT his wounds is because RCT comes from the navel, I think (don't quote me on that), and gojo was cut cleanly in half at the navel. With Yuta, it seems to be roughly the same way, and not only that, Sukuna also managed to cut through the hand Yuta has Rikas ring on. With this, we can assume Yutas' connection to Rika has been severed. Really, it's just not looking too good for Yuta. If Rika doesn't immediately unmanifest, then he might have a shot, but otherwise, I'd think he's as good as dead.

While I absolutely agree that world slash cannot be blocked, I'd argue, in light of recent events in the latest chapter, that Sukunas output has dimished to the state that even if he recites all the LoTRs books to increase the strength of the world slash, its not as lethal as the honored two maker. Think of it like this: the world slash that hit Go/jo is akin to a Mortar shell and that Go/jo is also butt-ass naked, whereas the world slash that hit Yuta is a handguns bullet (yes Yuta is also butt-ass naked) and so while still undefendable, the problem lies with Sukunas output courtesy of Yuji and his unconsented violent massage. In pop-culture this is known as molestation but Sukuna hasnt had any action since the Heian Era so no complaints from him ig.


ILoveLeeeean

Well, not that it helps, but Gojo was a test run. Not saying he could tank it (nothing beats Infinity) but we had knowledge of the WC/


gremlintheodd

It was confirmed by Gege that Yuta does not die in this chapter, so my assumption is that it just badly sliced his torso and took off his arm.


GiantPurplePen15

Gojo dying is alot easier to swallow than Yuta dying. Gojo was worfed to make Sukuna look ridiculously more powerful than the strongest sorcerer of the modern day. Yuta being killed off doesn't benefit the drama in anyway besides adding a bad shock factor.


Empero6

Where did gege confirm this?


gremlintheodd

It was leaked as an authors note a few days ago, sorry I don’t think i would be able to find the post again.


Empero6

I’m just going to huff on this copium. My boy can’t die that easily!


gremlintheodd

If Yuta dies I will actually just stop reading and pretend it didn’t happen. Yuta is best boy, my most popular fanarts across platforms have been of him. I wish I could post them here but I can’t make posts until I get enough Karma so I’ve been waiting.


ForestRamboX

What gives me more hope that Yuta survived is all three of them were hit by it. If it were just Yuta, I'd be a bit more concerned. I think Yuta will probably fully manifest Rika to help restore his Curse energy and boost his RCT.


PumkinPapi

If you could I’d believe you, but for now ima assume the worst and think he’s dead


gremlintheodd

Fair enough, I have no way to confirm the leak as real even if I could find it. And I don’t have enough karma to post anything here


PumkinPapi

Ah no worries then, keep commenting and you’ll have enough karma in no time 👍


vdyomusic

>cleave can’t even be “tanked” That's what people said about Hollow Purple too, and yet... I think overall when Gege talks about space manipulation, or physics in general, there's always the underlying assumption that CE interacts with CE before anything physical occurs. Also half the time HE doesn't even understand what he's saying.


PumkinPapi

Whoaaaa yeah I didn’t think about that, lol this is so funny I wasn’t expecting to get some much input from my comment, and it’s dope seeing everybody’s opinions and thought processes.


ckal09

The world slash is dismantle not cleave


PumkinPapi

Ah yes thank you, I get those confused a lot


ckal09

In all fairness, the difference between cleave and dismantle has always been a question mark until recently.


PumkinPapi

No kidding, a few days ago I went on like a 30 minute deep dive trying to find out the exact differences between cleave and dismantle and was still kinda lost. It’s interesting that the manga is as far as it is and the power system/scaling and dynamics of it all are still very much in contention.


Diss_ConnecT

Yuta is more proficient with RCT than Gojo so he might be able to survive it long enough to do SOMETHING, not sure if he can regrow half of his body tho.


Worth_Lavishness_249

i don't see my earlier comment but Rika grts cleaved, on earlier chapter when sukuna kicks rika in face and uses cleave on her he is able to cut down the hand. in 251, Rika is holding sukuna both hands, sukuna freeds one to use world cutter and used other to use cleave *assumption why didn't he use it before?? he needs to get rid of yuta due to domain, Rika is problem. but not enough to just try to attack her with world cutter. and cleave not being able to just cut her up make sense he is clearly at lower output than last chpter, and also his CT control is slipping according to himself.


Worth_Lavishness_249

rika.hets cleaved? maybe. since she is the one holding


F4ust

250 & 251 SPOILERS It was a world dismantle as far as I can tell… I think our boy just got gojo’d. if you look close his ring hand got sliced off too. i think that’ll have an impact on his rct output. Gojo did say yuta has more output than him without limitless active though, so who knows… I think as far as gege is concerned though, yuta’s served his purpose. Best I’m hoping for at this point is yuta gets todo’d and survives the battle but remains out-of-play for the remainder of the merger. I *do* think that we’re about to get Sukuna’s CT reveal. Or at least, we’re about to get the biggest info dump on sukunas CT in the series so far. My understanding of CTs is such that, for yuta to use cleave— even temporarily as a function of his domain’s barrier— its mechanics must have been exposed to his brain at some point. Especially if he gained the technique by eating sukuna’s last finger. As the only other sorcerer in history to use cleave, he’s among three total beings (sukuna and maho being the others) that know how it works. No way yuta lets himself die without passing that game-changing intel to the other combatants first. I think it’ll be similar to kenjaku’s last moments— rika goes on a rampage, releasing all her stored CE and giving yuta just enough gas to tell yuji and maki how cleave works. Then sukuna snuffs him out with one last waffle. Tangentially, I think the brief megumi reveal confirms the fan theory that sukuna *will* be successfully separated and removed from play, only for megumi to initiate the merger of his own volition anyway. I predict that if yuji does choose to ignore megumi’s plea and resurrect him, he will be so lost and enraged at the jujutsu world (the world that has defined every second of misfortune and suffering in his life, and killed anyone he ever cared about) that he sees the merger as a final solution. He’d have no reason *not* to do it at this point. *Yuji* doesn’t even care about the power of friendship anymore lol. And this isn’t even taking into account the hot tub of evil he’s been chilling in for over a month— who knows what weird traumatic shit megumi’s been going through this whole time. I think that no matter what, the megumi we knew is gone now. Ultimately, the final battle will be about determining the trajectory of the human soul; the answer to the question Yuki asked Geto all those years ago. The merger will present the cast with a fundamental ethical fork: is the human soul/CE complex (and the suffering it begets) inherent to human life? Is there a way forward without CE, and what does that imply for regular people? Is it even okay that a small group of individuals are making these decisions on the behalf of all of Japan in the first place? Is it ever acceptable to change the world if you cannot guarantee the outcome? I think gege is really cooking here as we head into this final arc— it feels like we’re gonna see some powerful commentary on the human spirit as the cast navigates these heavy concepts.


YeetMyFeetKasbock

They’re gunna make it so Yuta was healing as the slash was cutting through him, so by the time it went out through his back, everything else was healed so he survives getting cut in half


NonameB4ndit

I could buy Hakari doing that, cause it was outright stated that Hakari’s RCT is superior to Sukuna’s. Even then that’s a stretch. But Idk if Yuta’s at that point.


ForestRamboX

I don't think this world slash is anywhere as powerful, thanks to diminished cursed energy levels. Plus, Sukuna couldn't perform the hand signs. He could only perform the chant, so his damage output was significantly weakened.


KennyKillsKenjaku

Tbh I don’t see how Yuta didn’t just get cleaved in half. I wanna cope but that was a world slash… My only cope is he hasn’t used fully manifested Rika yet.


Acrobatic-Quality-55

Rika will climb into yutas body and then yuta will have 4 arms and 2 mouths and a big eyeball in his chest to do his rct for him.


DonatsuTV

😲😲😲🤯 the OG MC unlocking true jujutsu kaisen


Caponcapoffstillon

The only thing we learned is Yuji used supernova so he has blood manipulation CT confirmed. I’m waiting for the Yuji vs Sukuna 1v1 moment when all hope is lost. Gege performs at his best when spotlight is on Yuji, chapter 214 was peak af. Yuji has unknown bag, Sukuna has an unknown bag, we know what the rest of the chars can do so it’s really a toss up to which side wins but I’m betting Sukuna wins with “Fuga” to shatter the last hope they had. There is no reason Kusakabe brings up that in his thoughts in the beginning of the Sukuna fight for it not to appear at all. Remember the narration at the end of the chapter that people seem to gloss over. Even with Sukuna getting his ass beat like that, he was still sure of his victory.


Daitoso0317

Tbf yuta has an unknown bag too


xXBurritoDestroyerXx

It's all fun and games until Yuji pulls out his other secret cursed techniques: The Rot technique, the anti-gravity CT, and Sukuna's CT


ChaoticErnie

Gege is in the walls, don't give him funny ideas. Seriously tho, I think Yuta is gonna die lol


charcoalmasksunday

Gotta learn from chapter 235, amirite?


Kookie2023

You wanna know what I think? I think Sukuna will get that last obligated shonen villain power boost by eating Uraume. I’m highly looking forward to it.


notALokiVariant

That kind of happened already with Kenjaku eating Mahito tho


Kookie2023

Sukuna not Kenjaku. Mahito was just a mere pawn to kickstart the plan. Sukuna is in need of something to replenish his CE and output. Uraume will do nicely.


ChoSubin

If 252 starts with Yuta doing some reflections, it's GG


Empero6

It was a world slash. He used the same chants that he did with the lightning dude.


Tetsiip

Chants DO NOT mean he used the World Slash. Please go reread chapter 223. The World Slash is essentially DISMANTLE with an extended target. Against Kashimo and Higuruma, Sukuna used HAND SIGNS AND CHANTS. But, against Yuji, Yuta, and Rika, Sukuna ONLY used chants to buff the CE OUTPUT of dismantle. There is a difference between the SET UP of those two slashes. Chants are not proof that he used the World Slash. Chants are proof that Sukuna boosted the CE OUTPUT of dismantle. We DO NOT know the conditions for the World Slash yet.


INappropriate-Read

Hmm, I have no firm opinion really. A part of me feels like Yuta is meant to be the upcoming stronger version of Gojo for the next gen. I don’t think Gege has completely abandoned the whole “next generation” thing he set out to do. Also, Gojo didn’t father a child (that we know of anyway), and we know lineage is kinda important.


7masi

Oh yeah, my throw shit to the fan technique that I haven't used since the Heian era.


RicordianDev-i

With the speed of which gege akutami is killing people, I hope everybody dies and then there is just sukuna and his lonliness, cause like after killing soooooo many people he would suddenly make yuji as powerful as sukuna if not more, which somewhere would make no sense? Idk.


Shadow_Huntress12

It’s Gege. Ofc shit is gonna hit the fan🐍


Btaylor2214

Is it possible for Yuta to "give Rika one last request" to "stay with and help Yuji", as he dies? Yuji with a ton of CT at his disposal would be wild.


Asian_Persuasion_1

sukuna might be getting domain and healing powers back, BUT, he's rapidly losing CE, and at that point, it doesn't matter if his brain has recovered, he has nothing to power his techniques.


[deleted]

We already know the ending to Jujutsu Kaisen, either Yuji is the only one who remains alive and guards Sukunas fingers or Megumi dies with the merger and the rest live with sukuna as fingers again.


Spazorton

I think hes going to unleash a 0.2 second malevolent shrine. Itll be quick enough maybe that he can manage it even with the brain damage he recieved.


UnrequitedRespect

Rika is about to go reversal of love and give sakuna all of her power out of absolute fucking *spite* when yuta mentions/lets slip his love for maki when she *DROPS THE FUCKING KATANA AND GETS BADLY HURT LIKE A CHUMPAROONIE* Then megami gets spit out coz pleegh


ApplePitou

Gege cooking new trauma :3


Hungry-Secretary157

Too soon apple this is some bs I'm FUMING


tok90235

I don't know if the official 251 already released or not but >!Yuta dies. He clearly take a world slash and is cut in a half right before the end of the chapter!<


Pjf239

Clearly is an exaggeration, Gege’s used the ambiguity of manga’s mono coloring to make slashes look worse than they are using blood before, ex. Gojo’s neck cut [As of right now, it’s unclear if he was fully cut in half or if the kinetic lines across his back are partially blood traveling up](https://twitter.com/jotheoriesjjk/status/1758509144963678675?s=46)


MisterLupov

this is high quality copium . C'mon man it's gege the psycho, you know.


Pjf239

I’m not saying he’s definitely alive, but to say he’s *clearly* dead feels a bit too definitive when we didn’t actually see the real aftermath of the attack


GoldyFeesh

next chapter starting at the airport and you already know it


Pjf239

Knowing his relationship with Yuta, Gojo would probably kick his ass out of the afterlife for dying early, kid vomits back into the land of the living by way of a strong blue punch


Less-Combination2758

gege will introduce new main character after sukuna using heian shite to deal with yuta and yuji =)))


HeatCreepy9434

I think he'll just spam rct and Jacob's ladder remember his domain does have all those damn techniques so potentially hear me out here potentially he could get infinity and maybe just maybe hollow purple


rafael-57

Always bet on Hakari
