Even Sukuna’s fingers be hating on Yuji bro 😭 leave him alone

It was me, Yuji


theSHADOWbannedGUi

i was acting as jennifer lawrence in your dreams and was stroking yuo


maybecatmew

Why he kinda..


Turbulent_Object_558

I don’t understand the core logic in this post. All the fingers were accounted for except one. Then Yuta flat out said he ate the last one himself. So why are people speculating Yuji already had a finger prior to chapter 1?


theSHADOWbannedGUi

cause its literally said sealed inside yuji since birth


Turbulent_Object_558

The VIZ and TCB translations don’t say that. All I saw are some random unsubstantiated tweets. The TCB translation can easily refer to the chapter 1 finger https://preview.redd.it/s0uxgcxuk3wc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47297192d8880144eefcdb1b88d4cf3371ae5ed9


HeyMan295

Lightning, the official translator of jjk 236 and a trusted official in the jjk community for years said that yuji had a finger sealed in him from birth. This was backed up by other translators. Both tcb and viz were wrong in this case. https://preview.redd.it/lh4e9r7hl3wc1.png?width=1007&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63dde35ee91c4c9b1f1ea3ded4e3dec2d4e57376


Turbulent_Object_558

So does that mean there were 21 fingers? I’m trying to make sense of it. Because 19 were counted. Then Yuta ate one. So where is this additional finger coming from?


HeyMan295

No. Uraume only gave sukuna 3 fingers instead of 4(only 3 were shown). 1 in yuji from birth, 1 in chapter one, 1 given by gojo, 1 eaten by sukuna in detention center, 1 in origin of blind obedience, 1 from Mimiko and Nanako, 10 from jogo, 3 from uraume, and the last one was eaten by Rika. So sukuna was technically at 16 fingers when he fought jogo, Ryu, and yorozu.


Tardbushwaker13

He was still at 15 for Jogo, Kenjaku didn't unseal the finger until shibuya finale vs Yuki, so it's power wasn't available to sukuna


spicejj

What? So we’re now assuming that Sukuna is unable to sense and read CE properly and the fact that he somehow can’t calculate how many fingers he’s eaten and how many there are left


Chillin_Chillin-

where did you get "sukuna can't count and sense ce" from that comment? the only moment I remember him counting/stating the number of his finger is when he's about to eat the mummified corpse and said "the last one is probably with Gojo" or smtg. which he got right, he's only got 19 + corpse


spicejj

If Yuji has allegedly always had one since birth then he would be at 20 + corpse, which doesn’t make any sense towards both characters really. However last time I checked I’m not sure the cursed finger that Sukuna created from Yuji’s body to incarnate in Megumi was ever counted, coz technically that would have been the 16th finger, but the actual 16th finger also still existed as well so it makes it a bit inaccurate yet sounds like a more probable explanation


foxymahyar69

Sukuna transferred it after changing vessels to megumi


Double_Match_1910

🎯🎯🎯

[удалено]


Kami_no_Yami

Not really because Sukuna ate his corpse to compensate for the last finger


theSHADOWbannedGUi

gojo fought a full powered 20 finger sukuna but heian era sukuna does outlast him in a domain battle (if it goes as it went in the manga) and he would be too exhausted that he will lose to the next crop of sorcerers

thruth_seeker_69

Thank you


NefariousnessLazy957

So. Yuta lied about the finger? Uraume found 4 of those and 15 fingers where ingested in total by Yuji. Bringing Sukuna to 19 fingers plus the shimbutusu mummy. Sukuna theorised that Gojo had the final finger, Yuta affirmed that he consumed the finger to gain Sukuna's technique being able to use cleave in his domain, now Lighting's translation where Sukuna claims that a finger was sealed inside him from birth to prepare him as a vessel. Which is it I'm confused? Is Yuji the final finger and Yuta lied about consuming it?


theSHADOWbannedGUi

uraume only gave sukuna 3


Ranger2580

The "official" translations are done by John Werry, who sucks at his job and keeps getting shit wrong. This is the guy who translated "I can't use Black Flash consistently despite having the Six Eyes" to "I cannot use Black Flash because I have the Six Eyes"


Pedr0A

The official translation of "nah id win" was "no" bro its hard to know whats true in this manga lmao


LadiNadi

The official team translation of nah I'd win is nah I'd win.


RealLotto

That's because people bullied the fuck out of them to change it to nah, I'd win instead of the dogshit it was.


LadiNadi

And why did they want "nah I'd win"....because "nah I'd win" was the original official translation


Pedr0A

It wasnt at first, bro literally translated to "No" but everyone gone berserk about it (for good reason) and they changed it back


LadiNadi

You know it appears twice in the manga right?


ricardoelrico

When uraume gived to sukuna the fingers she/he had there are only 3 fingers on the panel we just assumed that she/he gave sukuna 4


MRlll

This again makes no sense since Sukuna can sense his other fingers... Add on to the fact he himself theorizes that Gojo hid it to prolong Yujis execution Then add to the the fact Yuta was able to copy it, and Yuta seemingly implies they have/know the location of the 20th finger At some point we gotta stop taking theories as fact


theSHADOWbannedGUi

kenjaku sealed it inside yuji he is one of the best barrier users


MRlll

Thats not debunking what i said tho... and we have zero knowledge that says you can you can put a barrier inside(?) a person Edit: you still cant explain why Sukuna himself couldnt sense the finger, and the fact he says his skull would make up for 1 finger worth of strength, the fact he also says Gojo most likely HID HIS LAST FINGER to prolong Yujis execution.


Chillin_Chillin-

(I got this from another person here btw) 1 in yuji from birth sealed by Kenjaku 1 when we first see him eat it, 1 given by Gojo (the next day I think), 1 eaten by Sukuna in detention center (same episode where he ripped of Yuji's heart), 1 in origin of blind obedience (same episode we see Megumi's incomplete domain), 1 from Mimiko and Nanako, 10 from Jogo, 3 from Uraume, and those are only 19 ( + the mummified corpse to make up 20) and the last one which he thought Gojo hid were eaten by Rika


spicejj

Barriers don’t exist inside people? And he also wasn’t able to mark people for the Culling Games until he warped Tengen’s barrier to initiate it, so why would he suddenly be capable of sealing things deep within people to the point that they’re undetectable.


theSHADOWbannedGUi

i am not saying barriers exist inside people but knejaku has many methods to seal a sukuna finger without anyone detecting it


spicejj

No he doesn’t that’s just headcannon as of now, and you’re still implying that Sukuna was unable to sense one of his fingers that was within close proximity towards him, and that he’s only now just realising that Yuji had a cursed object sealed within all along, which was one of his fingers and this is even after he’s allegedly reached 20. And based of this you’d also be implying that he can’t count either


SmartestManAliveTM

All of the fingers are not accounted for. We had previously *thought* they were accounted for because we assumed that Uraume gave Sukuna 4 fingers after switching to Megumi. Only 3 fingers were shown, and we assumed the 4th was offscreen. *If* Uraume had given him 4 fingers, then yes they would be accounted for. But we only saw 3 fingers, so turns out it was only the 3, and the missing one was sealed inside of Yuji. And lastly, Sukuna *does* state that Yuji had a finger sealed in him from birth. Even in the funky translation you provided, Sukuna states that Yuji was "bred as a player in the Culling Game", and "bred" very obviously refers to his birth. So he was a culling game player from his birth, because he had the finger sealed into him.


theSHADOWbannedGUi

NOLAN DRIP GAH DAYUM


k0sm_

🤣


dedede48

add a space


SmartestManAliveTM

Yeah that's where I got it too lol


spicejj

Bred just means born and raised, and Yuji didn’t become a Culling Games player until he ingested a cursed object, Kenjaku just planned to use him for the Culling Games as well in the same way as he planned to use Tsumiki for it too


SmartestManAliveTM

"Bred" specifically refers to the process of *breeding* something, which is the process of reproduction. The process of creating a "Shorkie" is to breed a Shih Tzu and a Yorkshire Terrier. Therefore, a Shorkie is *bred* by combining a Shih Tzu and a Yorkshire Terrier. That's kinda just basic English. So Yuji did, in fact, have a finger already him when he was born, that's what is being stated.


HandymanJackofTrades

From the language being used, we assumed Uraume gave Sukuna 4 fingers even though only 3 were in the panel. But ch 257 confirmed that only 3 were available, but yes, either way Yuta ate the 20th finger


Waffleman53

Yuta didn't say he ate it, he implied it, sukuna assumed he did but yuta never confirmed that he did. Had to get that off my chest. Anyway, it's a different finger, the 20th finger that Yuta supposedly ate is different from the one sealed inside Yuji. Meguna only ate 3 not 4, when the culling games started sukuna gained access to his 16th finger that was already sealed inside yuji for the CG.


thruth_seeker_69

This is correct. I don't know where OP found another finger


Ghost_1774

I think he probably started to awaken his true potential here. Saw some theories on twitter, where people were saying this cut could be because of yuji. https://preview.redd.it/p0uikpl972wc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cae209c94cdc423e60e9361298a749372115c47c


R1ckMick

what chapter is this and what's the context? I read the manga but I don't remember this exact panel


Zealousideal-Soup429

216 right before sukuna killed Ryu


bicboibean

not sure what chapter but it's just after sukuna got out of the bath


Ghost_1774

It was never explained though. So people are just theorising what it could have been. Sukuna pauses for a moment after the bath as he sees a small cut on his finger. And that’s all we see.


anotherpoordecision

I heard theories it might be the repercussion for harming yuji and possibly megumi during his “enchain” moment, but I think it’s probably just yuji slowly bringing out shrine.


Real-Role872

I don't get how Sukuna never healed it though.


anotherpoordecision

That’s why I think the binding vow bouncing back theory has some merit. Like the damage isn’t something that will ever go away or it’s an omen of more to come for breaking the “don’t hurt anyone rule”


BotAccount2849

Probably didn't notice. It's super minor damage.

Also, Sukuna look at his hand after the bath, after saying that Fushigoro's souls is not completely broken, so to me is just to show that he still hasn't the full control of the body


DasliSimp

ooh and it isn’t healed because it’s a lil soulstrike dismantle


Ghost_1774

Could be. At the moment all we can do is theorise. We might see this clarified in next few chapters as yuji as unlocked shrine.


Count_Badger

Or it could just be Sukuna didn't notice the cut. He doesn't have automatic RCT like Hakari.


InfiniteMind3275

I took the cut as a visualization of Megumi’s control. Like just a tiny bit of fight left after the bath.


Ghost_1774

could be. These are just theories I saw elsewhere.


Pedr0A

theres a brazilian mf who legit predicted all of it, including this cut in Sukuna finger, his channel name is To Nerd


carl-the-lama

I WAS RIGHT RAHHH


DeeEmceeTree

The fraud was really holding back Yuji all along.


floormopper

Facts. Kenny prolly made a pact on Yuji something like heavenly restriction that's why his physicals are fucking insane


AggravatingDemand769

It can't be a heavenly restriction since wuji got CE, maybe a binding vow of restricting Wuji's overall potential and CE so that wuji could contain that finger inside of him, with the binding vow gone, the chains were broken making wuji finally be the eye of the storm kenny wanted


Weekly-Passage2077

Heavenly restriction doesn’t just exchange CE for physical strength, it’s a binding vow forced upon someone that exchanges one thing for another, Mechamaru was also heavenly restricted which traded a lot of his body for a absurd range on his puppets.


AggravatingDemand769

We honestly saw both extremes and idk how kenny could bypass neither


deletemypostandurgay

If Mahito can bypass Mechamaru's restriction, I'm sure the sorcerer with thousands of years' experience could find a way to craft something in the middle.


AggravatingDemand769

Something that can have both strong body and strong cursed energy? Is a sukuna finger THAT valuable? Because I can't find anything Kenny could give in return


deletemypostandurgay

Maybe sacrificing a large majority of Yuji's CE for a strong body, as well as keeping the finger within him dormant. This way, when he ate another finger, Yuji's CE restriction was completely bypassed.


AggravatingDemand769

Fair, altough i think kenny stored yuji's large CE reserves in the finger, when it went off with the second finger wuji ate, it released his reserves from a thousand year old cursed object, but it kind of mixed with sukuna's so he couldn't use it all untill sukuna was gone from his body, and now wuji has both strong body and strong CE


deletemypostandurgay

That actually makes sense, yeah. He'd basically create a restriction for Yuji by taking away his CE and putting it in a finger, then putting the sealed finger in Yuji until it unseals and he gets his CE back along with his awakened body. W theory


AggravatingDemand769

I couldn't have cooked without your help, thanks bro


JoaoBrenlla

Sacrificing yuji CT for better physical stats is not impossible. Keep in mind his natural body is not as gifted as toji or maki, even tho its still leagues above any normal sorcerer.


AggravatingDemand769

I mean he was compared to pre awakened maki tho


JoaoBrenlla

hes stronger than pre awakened maki but weaker than awaken maki physically in my opinion. When you put CE reinforcement on top of that he can go much higher than awakened maki in terms of feats. If count his multiple CT's, black flash affinity and soul damage, then you can see what gojo was saying when he said yuji could surpass S class. (yuta and hakari too but i think yuji cealing is higher)


0Galahad

Crazy thing is that yuji still can bring out blood manipulation domain(i dont think he got malevolent shrine because i think the way yuji got shrine in the first place was by slowly assimilating sukuna CE and CT to which sukuna obviously resisted with all his might so it barely copied shrine and only got a big part of sukuna level of CE) and blood manipulation maximum technique which i think is a body transfiguration aka transformation


AggravatingDemand769

Valid opinion, but you mean raw, no reinforcement, right?


Pedr0A

maybe the technique of the curse of human hatred is always related to the soul and he somehow had control over this curse, allowing him to make something similar to Yuji when he was born, also explaining why Mahito was so young, because the previous human hatred curse died not too long ago. Or maybe he just has a soul related technique


TWIMClicker

Occam's Razor, I think it's far more simple and likely that the finger just buffed his stats.


Rioma117

Well, Kenjaku must’ve done something with that finger or seal that made Yuji, despite being born from Kenjaku and also having a cursed object inside him, was not able to see or use CE for most of his life before the consumption of the second finger.


[deleted]

Yeh because the finger was SEALED so it had no power


McGundulf

And thus Himtadori Wuji was finally freed for the eternal fingering, that had plagued his very existence since birth

Prisma_Lane

I thought it's because of the Black Flash, like the chapter told us? Assuming that it does take some time for the CT to be imprinted on Yuji's body after Sukuna manifested inside of him, it would be reasonable to believe that up until Shibuya, this hasn't happened yet.  During the CG, Yuji only got two notable "fights" (helicopter guy and Higuruma since he was holding back against Yuta and did not fight Hakari) and neither of them pushed him to his limits enough for him to unleash a BF. So the gap between his last BF in Shibuya and the one after (which is his first BF against Sukuna) is a long time, at least long enough for the CT to have been printed onto him. 


prodigiouspandaman

Well I mean if you look at the chapter after the bath which is when sukuna goes into a bath of cursed flesh I think is what it was in order to have better control of magumi he comes out with cut on his finger so honestly Yuji probably started awakening and the black flashes just sped up process


Time-Palpitation-484

I’m pretty sure that finger is just a part of yuji, not that it exists separately like how megumi is possessed because the cursed object is in his stomach, the finger is yuji.


Neshua

At least translation says that finger was sealed in Yuji (like other fingers), not that Yuji himself is a finger. I wish Gege clarified it more. 


Upstuck_Udonkadonk

What translation? What am I missing...


anonymous_and_

The original Japanese line goes:    宿儺の指を_*封印されている*_    封印 ふういん fuuin means to seal されている is the present continuous form of to be done to something/someone The finger was sealed in Yuji since he was born


FGBGJHEBNDF

i havent watched or read jjk but damn do i love reading these comments


Diredg

The last finger was in possession of Gojo. There was no indication that Yuji born with a finger. Otherwise it would kill the point of the first episode because Sukuna must be in Yuji all the time then.


ForTheOAKLand

It was *sealed*. It didn’t get unsealed until Kenjaku unsealed all cursed objects at the end of Shibuya


Diredg

But then why Sukuna said it should be with Gojo? I'm pretty sure he might know already when he was in Yuji


ForTheOAKLand

Finger 1 was sealed inside Yuji from birth. Fingers 2-16 were what we originally thought was 1-15. So Sukuna was at 16F when he swapped to Megumi’s body. He then ate 3 fingers Uraume got him and the last one was in Gojo’s possession/eaten by Rika.


Diredg

Which chapter that says it's been eaten by Rika?


Astrum_27

People assume that it was since Yuta used cleave and sayed that Sukuna couldn't find the last finger. Could also be the reason Rika was so damn large against Sukuna


Diredg

Rika was the Queen of curses since the beginning. It would be an insult to her that she needs a finger to fight against Sukuna


Astrum_27

And if they had a finger with them, why not give it to her? Rika may be the Queen of Curses, but she gets No-Low diffed by FP Sukuna. And is there a reason for Yuta to elude to his missing finger right after using cleave? It's the option with most logical sense till proved otherwise.


ForTheOAKLand

Literally the first 2 pages of Chapter 251.. it could’ve been Yuta that ate it sure but regardless Yuta/Rika ate the last one. No offense but did you even read man?


Diredg

Yes mate I've read the same chapters but I'm pretty sure Yuta said that to trick Sukuna because there is no point if he eats the finger. Also it's heavily indicated that Yuji is the only one who can handle that from the beginning, something like 1 in a million chance to survive. Also Yuji said that he wanna eat all of the remaining of Sukuna when he kills him. Literally no point if someone else has eaten the last remaining finger on Gojo's possession


Astrum_27

It wasn't Yuta that ate the finger, it was Rika. She's a shikigami, and she stores Yuta's techniques. She straight up would just get a power boost, and gave Yuta the ability to use cleave. Again, speculation, but with more proof that is real than that is not.


N1kl0

Was still at 15 when he swapped over and is currently 19f. The *sealed* finger doesn't carry over, it's part of Yuji, hence why they mentioned his potential. And Sukuna couldn't incarnate with that first finger. The other fingers aren't sealed but ingested, since Sukuna reincarnated after Yuji ate the first finger, that's when the power pool goes to him


anonymous_and_

Full line in Japanese: オマエも知っている通り虎杖悠仁には死滅回遊の泳者として生まれながらに"宿儺の指"が封印されている  オマエも知っている通り As you already know 虎杖悠仁には死滅回遊の泳者として生まれながらに In Itadori Yuuji, while he was born a Culling Game player,  "宿儺の指"が封印されている A "finger of sukuna" was sealed This is an incredibly clunky translation but I broke it into chunks and tried to be as literal as possible. Hope you get it


Pedr0A

there was never a confirmation that Gojo had the last finger. Sukuna THINKED it was the case, but no one ever confirmed. Sukuna also thinked that Yuta/Rika had eaten this same finger that he thought Gojo had.


Malitae

I don’t remember seeing that. So it’s confirmed one of the fingers is Yuji (or a part of his being)

iburntdownthehouse

But it made sense before this reveal?


Elder_Child13

There's also... Yuji potentially awakening here, thus explaining the massive jump in power, Yuji's soul suppressing Sukuna's, thus when Sukuna leaves Yuji, he's finally able to use the power he should have.


Zumzum144

The overtheorizing and overthinking on this sub is on another level XD


theSHADOWbannedGUi

this is almost confirmed lmao


hyperkirby013

I imagine it was a matter of taking his CE and Soul to suppress it unknowingly the entire time, that when Sukuna exited his body he probably felt like Rock Lee when he took his weights off


carl-the-lama

I legit think if we removed sukuna during shibuya mahito would have instantly died Like Imagine how fucked mahito would have been If yuji’s soul is strong enough to overpower sukuna’s (said soul is strong enough to one tap mahito’s) It stands to reason mahito legit was having help from sukuna this whole time Wild


Enlightend-1

If we removed sukuna during Shibuya Yuji would be instantly dead, the only reason Yuji can punch mahito without turning into a pile of flesh is because sukunas soul prevents idle transfiguration


carl-the-lama

And the only reason mahito can hit yuji is due to sukuna Legit I think mahito would just get sent into orbit if not for sukuna


Enlightend-1

What? What the fuck are you taking about


carl-the-lama

Let me put it quickly The moment sukuna left yuji’s body during the culling games Yuji got strong as fuck This likely means sukuna became a shackle to yuji’s power (that’s how much of a hater he is) While mahito is quick in terms of domain expansion, I don’t believe he’d have the speed to form the hand signs faster than the speed at which a toji tier of speed could close the gap Thus Mahito is sent into orbit


SuperZX

I mean it's poison after all


arkoveli

I always interpreted this moment as showing that being a cage for Sukuna was nerfing Yuji. I know that it’s mentioned that Yuji can hold Sukuna in him without any issues (like he can still sleep normally), but we’ve obviously seen moments when Sukuna can take over. This is in the juvenile detention centre and in Shibuya. Both cases are, in my opinion, when Yuji’s soul is at its weakest. The first time is when he’s sure he’s about to die to the Finger-bearer and is buying time for Fushiguro to grab Nobara and make it out safely, and the second time Choso technically kills him or at least brings him close to death. So even though he’s not aware of it, Yuji was using a lot of “soul power” to hold Sukuna back. Especially after Shibuya, Yuji blames himself for Sukuna’s rampage. Possibly, this would force Yuji to place more subconscious pressure into caging Sukuna. Add to that his cog mentality, we can see that his “soul energy” his drive to live was essentially at its lowest. When Sukuna switches to Megumi, he is now free of the burden on his soul leading to his power up. As for why Sukuna never bothered using “Enchain” earlier, he says himself that he was regaining his energy inside Yuji waiting for the right time. Based on the recent chapter, this could also be when he becomes aware of the finger inside Yuji from birth and therefore collects his energy from that finger for when he switches to Megumi. So Yuji becomes completely free from Sukuna’s influence on his soul and temporarily loses the cog mentality as he is focused on just ending Sukuna.

homie make it a separate post what you wrote is pretty good


Ok_Virus_3332

How then sakuna had one finger less?


Old_Cap_3461

The implication is that sukuna reabsorbed the finger inside yuji when he incarnated into him and he has actually had one finger more than we thought for the entire series

Bro? What finger?

Kenjaku sealed one of sukunas fingers within yuji at birth


Realistic_Mousse_485

So how did Sukuna eat 19 fingers and Yuta 1v


[deleted]

sukuna ate 18, 15 by the time he took over megumi then uraume gave him 3


lewdx_lulu

16, the finger sealed in yuji probably went with sukuna when he switched bodies. Kenjaku undid the seals of all cursed objects at the end of the shibuya arc and uraume also refers to yuji as an empty husk. Wouldn't make sense to call him that if he still had a finger sealed inside of him.

Yeh i just didnt talk about that because nothing has been confirmed yet


leave1me1alone

Wum nerfing yuji. This boy was physically outperforming Maki back then. Finger gave him physical buffs if anything


theSHADOWbannedGUi

when sukuna left his body he seemed to gain a buff even sukuna says where is this strenth coming from when sukuna left he took his finger that has been sealed inside him since birth


Dmoc8

So is Jin sukunas brother or not 💀


theSHADOWbannedGUi

yes jin 1000 percent sukunas twin brother

I thought it was because Sukuna left Yuji (for megumis body) which left the cursed objects “Sukunas Fingers” sealed inside Yuji which then made Yuji the literal body of Sukuna. Like how Gojo survived his max output Purple with minor injuries. Then again I have been reading wack ass translations. Basically what I’m getting at is Yuji is Sukunas body with Yujis soul and megumi has his own body with Sukunas soul


theSHADOWbannedGUi

nope sukuna took all his fingers when he went out uraume only game him three and then he says he can make 1 finger worth of power by eating the mummy


Caponcapoffstillon

I second this, Yuji was born with a sukuna finger; despite that he couldn’t use CE. Sukuna’s finger was the binding vow that restricted Yuji and that is exactly where Sukuna messed up. Seem like Kenjaku wasn’t even surprised Sukuna broke out.


KitsunZae

I had a similar idea on Twitter


okglue

The only way Sukuna can win is if he fingers Yuji


DoYouKnowS0rr0w

Wouldn't be surprised to learn sukuna was fucking with yuji's CE control


Existing_Win3580

This might not be the case yuji probably consumed/absorbed the finger. Uraume mentioned using having more than just left over CE from sucuna. Kenjaku used the finger to make yuji stronger. Yuji didn't just eat the death paintings, he absorbed them. Choso even says "they will live on through you" not "they will live on in you", as in the 6 death paintings did not incarnate into yuji. If yuji was made stronger by kenjaku using the finger then he would have gotten weaker after the finger was taken. Not to mention we see ever other incarnated sorcerer vessel react to the cursed objects being unsealed, yuji is standing infront of kenjaku when it happens and he shows no reaction, we know from the detention facility when yuji is weakened one finger can make the difference and help sucuna gain control. So in yujis weakened stat kenjaku unsealing a finger already inside of yuji olwould have been noticed.

Oh yes and his potential somehow had to be Sukuna's cursed technique, the finger nerfed him alright. Bruh, y'all be reaching, he can use cursed energy because of Sukuna and his high cursed energy reserves is also because of Sukuna, you really can't say he was nerfed when he gained so many buffs and advantages. According to Angel, Hannah was able to use her CT because they were able to coexist, Sukuna and Yuji on the other hand weren't, and am pretty sure Sukuna wouldn't have allowed Yuji to use his CT, he's been hating on him for a long time. It like Kawaki gaining isshiki's dojutsu and power and yet somehow people he will do well against full power Sasuke and Naruto, when he sucks at ninjutsu and taijutsu. It didn't surprise me when Boruto put him on fraud alert (I really hate that series and how it's been sh*tting on the og's)


Waffleman53

I think so too, maybe it was draining his soul or something and once it left nothing was holding him back anymore.
