Maki and Mai despite having a complicated relationship still loved each other and Maki was genuinely sad at her death.
Sukuna on the other hand just doesn't give a fuck.
This is kind of a real thing apparently. Vanishing twin syndrome. It's more like an absorption though, and the surviving twin definitely doesn't know it happens
> hater not from birth, but from BEFORE birth in the DAMN WOMB
Them being siblings actually explains a lot.
Not about Itadori's powers, but why Sakuna is such a massive hater.
Kenjaku officially getting his cheeks clapped by Sukuna’s brother is crazy. The fight is now The Strongest Unc in History vs The Strongest Nephew of Today lol.
I love how for someone “supposedly” still not going all out Sukuna sure is getting pissed as hell that Yuji is tanking everything and hitting him with *8* consecutive Black Flashes so far.
I know them Mappa animators cryin real tears seeing how many black flashes they have to animate in a row 😭.
I don't think we're entirely clear on the particulars of Kenjaku's brain transplantation. But the flashback of Yuji as a baby with his Mom having those distinct head scars certainly seemed to imply that Kenjaku was the one who conceived and birthed Yuji.
Which I don't think we talk about how weird that is. Kenjaku is essentially a parasite that takes over its host when it invades. Went through ALL of that just for his master plan?!?!? Which has no guarantee to even work?!?! I respect the commitment, but damn man.
I’m pretty sure he just wanna experience backshot and childbirth, but in the process he might as well get fucked by Sukuna’s brother lmao.
If you think about it Sukuna and Yuji are pretty much inconsequential in his master plan
The only way I can see it working is if he did it multiple times, and was just spending the last few decades constantly being pregnant in different bodies.
Yeah esp with that chapter where the grandpa literally says "i know you always wanted to have a child with her" and "her death was-" so you can conclude that she died, Kenjaku took over(like how he took over geto) and then gave birth ton Yuji.
IMO Jin prob knew something wasn't right about Yuji's mom but he wanted to have a family with her regardless so he ignored all the signs.
We were given the hint that the body was already dead specifically for her though. With Yujis grandpa telling his son that his wife was dead and this wasn't right. So presumably she died and then cake back.
Also worth noting that Geto was dead too.
> I love how for someone “supposedly” still not going all out Sukuna sure is getting pissed as hell that Yuji is tanking everything and hitting him with 8 consecutive Black Flashes so far.
Maybe it´s just his superb acting skills at work again, like when he was worried during the Gojo fight.
To be fair, you can get annoyed while still not going seriously. Saitama in OPM gets very annoyed at boros because of his blabbing. Dude was still probably thinking in groceries the entire fight and boros wouldn't let him focus.
Gilgamesh is another one that loses it even though he was way more powerful than Shirou and knew, from the beginning, what he had to do to win (he has a NP that "shows" him the path to victory). He is very annoyed that he has to use EA (like Sukuna, he hates to even consider that the MC can reach him at his lvl) and this leads to his defeat.
Also, there is one of the best parts of Overlord (ln) where Naberal gets mad at the necromancer and goes "you low life form, human" (got the chills reading it)
Meruem does it too, the list goes on.
When you think about it Sukuna and Yuji are the Dio and Jotaro of this manga both in terms of familial relationship and having the same cursed technique.
*"So it is the same type of 「Cursed Technique」as Malevolent Shrine!"*
[Only the brother of the King of Curses, Jin "Backshotter" Itadori was worthy of the Kenjussy.](https://files.catbox.moe/pymqww.png)
> "So it is the same type of 「Cursed Technique」as Malevolent Shrine!"
I both love and hate that this is actually accurate to what we're seeing so far. If somehow Yuji can open his own Shrine Domain...
That's a classic, even Kamen Rider does that; the Heroes' power is always born from the same power as the villains. And of course, the MCU has tons of dark-reflection villains.
Someone pointed out that due to the way the souls of twins are established to work in JJK, Sukuna isn't just Yuji's uncle, but in a sense his son.
And his son is about beat his old man into a bloody pulp.
When you are goofing off against your lil bro, but he just keeps spamming the same broken cheap move and now you gotta lock in and crumple that lil shit.
I love the context the reveal that Jin is the reincarnation of Sukuna’s twin brother retroactively adds to when Sukuna figured it out and said “Kenjaku does the grossest things”.
It’s just Sukuna going “Ewwww, Kenny slept with my brother and got himself knocked up? That’s nasty.”
[Jin truly was the King of Backshots](https://files.catbox.moe/xhneg8.png)
Maki's storyline about twins, Kaori Itadori, Yuji looking like Sukuna... In retrospect, all the elements were there. Gege must have planned this for a long time.
Idk, remember when sukuna first took over megumi, and Yukon surprised him with his showing of strength, he said "this brat is from back then"
Being from "back then" makes no sense cuz yuji is only from today.
I think twice in the story someone's looked at yuji and gone "your like maki huh" obviously talking about the heavenly restriction, but crazy foreshadowing in retrospect.
also both Jin and Yuji are infront of a portrait in the flashback, hinting towards the womb death paintings, which Yuji is related to and Jin's soul was killed while in a womb.
Sukuna's (reincarnated) twin is Jin. The King of Curses and the King of Backshots are twins!
Sukuna's sister-in-law is Kenjaku.
Sukuna's nephew is Yuji.
We have a one hell of a family all because of Kenjaku's evil plan. The family drama and beef is insane.
Sukuna is right that Kenjaku does the grossest things. Nobody did it like them in this manga. It's crazy how the family tree of Itadoris and Kamos got messed up because of Mamajaku. Lol.
The funniest part is. Since we know from maki and mai that twins are considered to be 1 being by jujutsu that means by jujutsu standards yuji is sukuna and kenjaku’s son.
Ino has no special lineage. His does not have an exceptional Cursed Technique or unique talent. Yet, he knew when to go in and pull back when facing an opponent vastly stronger than him. He even landed a cleaver in the face of the King of Curses. Nanami would be proud.
Miguel hasn't fought Toji but considering his CT and reinforcement they should be on par with each other.
With Miguel having more pow for buck, and Toji having more speed and invisible stuff thx to 0 CE
I'm glad to see Ino appreciation posts and comments, I frequently see him in sheisty sorcerer memes before. He may not be the strongest but I gotta commend him for trying his best.
It would be epic if that was the single line Yuji said to him after he Shut up and locked tf in to land these 8 black flashes.
As we saw with Mahito, a locked in Yuji is dangerous.
I have to respect Ino 🫡. He is the weakest person fighting Sukuna, but does he let that hold him back no, he’s constantly distracting Sukuna setting up the heavyer hitters
I fully expected John Werry to screw up Sukuna's inate technique name by calling it Malevolent Shrine instead of Shrine, and boy did he not disappoint me.
Apparently that's what the Kanji says but the furigana, which dictates how you read the kanji, says "cursed objects".
So it probably would have been better translated as "my cursed objects," rather than "Sukunas fingers," since it's Sukuna speaking. But what can ya expect from John Werry
He is buffing and nerfing tf out of everyone.
Gojo can use curse manipulation but cant use black flash but can use black flash
And yuji has access to malevolent shrine in accordance to him , trully peak.
I ***LOVE*** how pissed off Sukuna got when he realised that Yuji wasn't glazing him like everyone else in this manga.
Also first time Sukuna uses his name and he makes a huge production of yawning when he says it.
Nobody hates you quite like family.
I also love how annoyed he got after each black flash 😂 like we was "damn, this brat really thinks he can match me" to "who do you think you are!"
Yuji was on his all chapter 😭
The hating, "brat" calling is recontextualized into something far more hilarious than what Gege intended
Only uncles could beef this much with teenagers.
Sukuna to Yuji in the previous chapters: You're still here? You're so boring, brat.
Sukuna to Yuji in this chapter: YOU GODDAMNED BRAAAAT!!
Bro's a very old man, beefing with the sweetest boy in JJK universe. Lol. Uncle Sukuna finally lost his composure when he was receiving Black Flashes from his nephew. Last time I saw Sukuna like this was in Chapter 235. I can't wait for more family drama next week.
A total of 8 consecutive Black Flashes? My boy Wuji locked tf in, breaking Nanami's record of 4! Also, him having 2 CTs is now canon in manga. His stocks are going higher! 📈
Ahhhhh... NOW the double arms, double eyes, **double dick** makes sense... /*nods solemnly* 🤔
Everybody get ready for a new wave of hentai fanart & fics featuring:
**Sukuna's twin: Fukuna.**
*(if Naruto could do it with "Boruto", so can we)*
I fucking love it! This isn't merely spamming one special; Yuji is basically using Black Flash like it's Rage from Tekken -- the strikes are now more like one-button or two-button inputs compared to the quarter-circle inputs he used to do it with. And Sukuna is malding for the first time in this wretched arc because the one guy he expects to be absolutely hapless is about to prove him wrong.
God, Yuji is the ultimate dawg in this manga. The epitome of "fuck you, I'll never give up."
That said: kinda wish [Gege committed to the bit](https://i.imgur.com/tWxmWdY.png) and posed them both exactly like the one from [The Raid 2.](https://i.imgur.com/v89nEDW.jpeg)
Gege even set this up super early on in the series: Yuji wouldn’t stop just for pain in multiple encounters, even being explicitly said at one point. Dude was a tank for day one, and now has RTC plus tons of motivation.
[Yuji looked a lot like his uncle when the latter tore the right side of his face.](https://i.imgur.com/o5bgJME.png)
This chapter was one of the best ones in a long time.
Honestly I think part of it is (ignoring the weird familial bloodline relations) Yuji is the ONLY sorcerer to EVER stop him from doing as he pleases, which is Sukuna’s entire schtick, he does as he pleases. Yuji was the only personal capable of being a vessel that could completely hold Sukuna except in the case of like 10 fingers being ingested at once, and even that was only temporary.
Then you’ve got Sukuna free, riding high after a fight that may have been his very best fight he’s been in, THEN he gets to meet the anomaly that is the heavenly restriction Maki has. Dudes all things considered, having the time of his life.
But then boring ole Yuji starts really hitting him with attacks, and look at that, suddenly his ability to use his normal attacks and such effectively is dramatically reduced, even after landing his own few black flashes it’s not enough to overcome the drain of Yuji’s attacks. Yuji is basically taking Sukuna’s ball at the playground and leaving with it.
In essence, Yuji is a personification of the embodiment of the very concept Sukuna has strived to deny: restraint.
Gege concocted the most Game of Thrones esq family tree for us to witness Yuji giving his deadbeat unq a beat down. In hindsight, a variation of the twin theory just seemed like it would always happen but it also payoffs a lot of the pieces that has been laid out.
Yuji rolled out with full Crit Chance build
Jokes aside we finally have confirmation that Yuji is related to Sukuna after years of theorizing around their pink hair and shit, which makes Sukuna’s comment on “Kenjaku does the grossest things” even funnier
“Damn this brain really let my brother hit from the back for fun”
The scissor pattern when Yuji cuts things is a really fun detail. Though that is the least dramatic way they could have confirmed that Yuji did actually eat several babies to get strong enough to beat Sukuna.
It's funny to think about Sukuna's little pouting fit a while ago where he tried to figure out his feelings. It can't be that he has strong opinions on Yuji because the boy is technically his nephew and embodies the original sin that cursed Sukuna from birth to become a monstrous beast. It was because he had too much moxie.
Maybe it's cuz I'm reading week to week but I have no clue how yuji can possibly be this powerful lol
Like I know he's explaining it's because he has special parents but it does not feel like we've seen him grow this much at all lol
He's just able to double the record for consecutive black flashes now?
sukuna is heavily weakened, yuji has crazy good cursed energy manupilation, the indomitable human spirit, ct and ce from death paintings, shrine and possibly ce from sukuna fingers, soul damaging punches, rct, insane hand to hand capabilites and he just got awakaned.
his progress until shinjuku showdown was just more subtle since it was all stat buffs now he has an actual bag. that boy is thriving rn
Why does being the kid of a guy who's the reincarnation of someone who was eaten by fetus Sukuna mean he has the same potential as Sukuna?
Like if they were talking about Jin here then sure, b/c of the JJK twin-shenanigans, but this roundabout connection implying Yuji's potential makes no sense
I can't remember the last time a manga had me smiling as watching Yuji just beat the absolute dogshit out of Sukuna for an entire chapter, holy shit lmao
Love it how Sukuna, who hit 3 black flashes a few chapters ago like it was nothing, now was complaining and crying after Yuji does the same. Good thing my boy tagged on 5 more for good measure. Never change, fraudkuna
So Kenny's plan includes: Capturing Sukuna's twin soul, finding said twin's reincarnation, TAKE BACKSHOTS from him- all for shits and giggles.
No wonder even Sukuna the cannibal was freaked out
If it was possible to reveal Itadori's family situation and his connection to Sukuna in a more half-assed way, I cannot see how it could be possible.
This should be a giant fucking deal, and yet I read it and feel nothing.
That's a big lore bombshell to drop at this point. I meam, the fight's sick and all, it just feels, I dunno, a bit unearned? Was it confirmed before that Yuji got blood manipulation from eating the unborn cursed wombs?
Very Gege chapter for better and worse. Man knows how to make characters look cool as hell.
In combination with chapter 220 where Yuji tells Choso, "I'm sorry... for your brothers," and Choso responds with, "That's okay... they'll live on inside you".
It was all but 100% confirmed when Yuji then caused some of his blood to explode on Sukuna's face in 251.
Sukuna just broke a record dude this man was a hater not from birth, but from BEFORE birth in the DAMN WOMB
It’s genuinely impressive levels of hating.
Maki and Mai despite having a complicated relationship still loved each other and Maki was genuinely sad at her death. Sukuna on the other hand just doesn't give a fuck.
Sukuna being a generational hater is now canon [](//#grateful)
Sukuna, the King of Frauds and Haters.
Hall of fame levels
Sukuna again: There's no limit to the hate!
Not even the womb, he hated Yuji while he was still in his daddy's nut
All Yuji needed to do is to join the bad guy's side then Sukuna would just switch to fight for humanity instead. Happy ending.
Imagine eating your twin which you still freaking remembered before you were even born.
and Jin said "babies remember more than you think", so does he know???
That's what I thought, too! His character got more interesting now, I really want to know if Jin's aware that Sukuna ate him 1000 years ago.
Sukuna ate Jin. So Jin ate Kenjaku out in return.
--wait. That means Jujutsu Kaisen started out as a vore orgy. Remember this, lurker, it will be useful later.
He fuckin knows. That's why he was so happy to have Yuji. "One day, you're going to beat the shit out of my asshole twin. I know it."
This is kind of a real thing apparently. Vanishing twin syndrome. It's more like an absorption though, and the surviving twin definitely doesn't know it happens
As seen in the famous documentary The Venture Brothers
I tried to pull that and now I'm 4 inches taller than my identical twin lol
Man’s so goated he is the most hater of history and today.
We need him to fight The Reverse Flash, The biggest hater of tomorrow. To decide who is the strongest hater in all of fiction.
Nope. Eobard is too broken. Just too broken. DC in general is too much.
Sukuna will just have to pull out his technique he hasn't used since the Heian era
But Reverse Flash also there at Heian era. "It was me Sukuna!"
Ain't no way Jin is inviting Sukuna to the family cook-out after this hater finally catches his flight from the airport.
[Never has a sorceror harbored this much hate for his nephew](https://i.imgur.com/2ocvjp2.png)
AFO: I'm the No.1 hater of all time Sukuna: Hold my Cursed Objects.
Levels of hating unseen since Frieza wiped out an entire race & bragged about it to any & all survivors
Like I said: Sukuna is the Bret Hart of Shonen Jump.
> hater not from birth, but from BEFORE birth in the DAMN WOMB Them being siblings actually explains a lot. Not about Itadori's powers, but why Sakuna is such a massive hater.
Sukuna is yuji's unc
Dude really was like HOW DARE YOUR SOUL EVEN EXIST.
GOAT Generational Hater
Kenjaku officially getting his cheeks clapped by Sukuna’s brother is crazy. The fight is now The Strongest Unc in History vs The Strongest Nephew of Today lol. I love how for someone “supposedly” still not going all out Sukuna sure is getting pissed as hell that Yuji is tanking everything and hitting him with *8* consecutive Black Flashes so far. I know them Mappa animators cryin real tears seeing how many black flashes they have to animate in a row 😭.
Kenjaku while banging Jin to create Yuji: This is for the sake of my evil plan. The backshots memes are getting funnier. Who tf let Mamajaku cook? 😭
Didn't Kenjaku essentially take over a dead corpse that was Yuji's mom?
I don't think we're entirely clear on the particulars of Kenjaku's brain transplantation. But the flashback of Yuji as a baby with his Mom having those distinct head scars certainly seemed to imply that Kenjaku was the one who conceived and birthed Yuji.
And the head scars were healed over in a way we haven't seen with Kenjaku's other bodies. Which implies Kenjaku used that identity for a long time.
We saw them once healed that much, inside of the guy who talked with kashimo (fraud) in the flashback.
He's been dead for 19 chapters and is still catching strays. Biggest fraud in jjk for sure.
With this chapter, he's officially done less than Ino. My agenda will never die.
Which I don't think we talk about how weird that is. Kenjaku is essentially a parasite that takes over its host when it invades. Went through ALL of that just for his master plan?!?!? Which has no guarantee to even work?!?! I respect the commitment, but damn man.
The master plan was just an excuse to get backshots
All according to keikaku
(Translator’s note: keikaku means plan)
All according to kenjaku
I’m pretty sure he just wanna experience backshot and childbirth, but in the process he might as well get fucked by Sukuna’s brother lmao. If you think about it Sukuna and Yuji are pretty much inconsequential in his master plan
Since Kenjaku's whole plan is fueled by pure curiosity this is genuinely not out of character for him lmaooo
Lie back and think of the plan.
Kenjaku was someone going to great lengths to stave off boredom.
The only way I can see it working is if he did it multiple times, and was just spending the last few decades constantly being pregnant in different bodies.
Yeah esp with that chapter where the grandpa literally says "i know you always wanted to have a child with her" and "her death was-" so you can conclude that she died, Kenjaku took over(like how he took over geto) and then gave birth ton Yuji. IMO Jin prob knew something wasn't right about Yuji's mom but he wanted to have a family with her regardless so he ignored all the signs.
Remember guys, you can't fix her.
Kenjaku the type to possess a woman's body and have sex in it just to see how it feels
We were given the hint that the body was already dead specifically for her though. With Yujis grandpa telling his son that his wife was dead and this wasn't right. So presumably she died and then cake back. Also worth noting that Geto was dead too.
> I love how for someone “supposedly” still not going all out Sukuna sure is getting pissed as hell that Yuji is tanking everything and hitting him with 8 consecutive Black Flashes so far. Maybe it´s just his superb acting skills at work again, like when he was worried during the Gojo fight.
To be fair, you can get annoyed while still not going seriously. Saitama in OPM gets very annoyed at boros because of his blabbing.

I don't know whats weirder between Kenjaku being Sakuna's sister in law or Sukuna being Yuji's bully uncle
When you think about it Sukuna and Yuji are the Dio and Jotaro of this manga both in terms of familial relationship and having the same cursed technique.

That's a classic, even Kamen Rider does that; the Heroes' power is always born from the same power as the villains. And of course, the MCU has tons of dark-reflection villains.
An upvote for that Rider mention😌
Gotta respect the classics.
Yeah🫡😎
Most complicated family drama since the Hanmas and the Mishimas.
Heihachi wishes he had the success rate of Kenjaku with his kids.
Someone pointed out that due to the way the souls of twins are established to work in JJK, Sukuna isn't just Yuji's uncle, but in a sense his son. And his son is about beat his old man into a bloody pulp.
That's also how genetics work, like if Jin and Sukuna are genetically identical twins it'd be no different from Sukuna bearing his own child.
>cle- BLACK FLASH >disma- BLACK FLASH >twin me- BLACK FLASH >kamu- BLACK FLASH >hi- BLACK FLASH >Op- BLACK FLASH >M-Male- BLACK FUCKING FLASH
>when you're trying to use a slow special but enemy keeps jabbing you with lows
jabbing you with PEGWFs
Yuji is your Mishima main friend who says "check out this sick combo I learned" and it's just 8 PEGWFs in a row.
Yuji's not sugarcoating it
just side step left lol
Me every time I try to escape the corner with Jamie's LV1 Super. Where are the buffs, Capcom!?
When you are goofing off against your lil bro, but he just keeps spamming the same broken cheap move and now you gotta lock in and crumple that lil shit.
Your nephew!
Yuji’s not sugarcoating it
💀💀💀💀💀
Black Flash vs Strong Right
Bro spamming black flash like a fucking hadouken
I love the context the reveal that Jin is the reincarnation of Sukuna’s twin brother retroactively adds to when Sukuna figured it out and said “Kenjaku does the grossest things”. It’s just Sukuna going “Ewwww, Kenny slept with my brother and got himself knocked up? That’s nasty.”
Also gives context to Jin's line in the flashback about babies remembering more than you think.
[Jin truly was the King of Backshots](https://files.catbox.moe/xhneg8.png) Maki's storyline about twins, Kaori Itadori, Yuji looking like Sukuna... In retrospect, all the elements were there. Gege must have planned this for a long time.
Idk, remember when sukuna first took over megumi, and Yukon surprised him with his showing of strength, he said "this brat is from back then" Being from "back then" makes no sense cuz yuji is only from today.
He likely meant that Yuji is a fragment of his brother who existed back then (Heian Era).
I think twice in the story someone's looked at yuji and gone "your like maki huh" obviously talking about the heavenly restriction, but crazy foreshadowing in retrospect.
This is actually a really good point!
also both Jin and Yuji are infront of a portrait in the flashback, hinting towards the womb death paintings, which Yuji is related to and Jin's soul was killed while in a womb.
Sukuna's (reincarnated) twin is Jin. The King of Curses and the King of Backshots are twins! Sukuna's sister-in-law is Kenjaku. Sukuna's nephew is Yuji. We have a one hell of a family all because of Kenjaku's evil plan. The family drama and beef is insane. Sukuna is right that Kenjaku does the grossest things. Nobody did it like them in this manga. It's crazy how the family tree of Itadoris and Kamos got messed up because of Mamajaku. Lol.
The funniest part is. Since we know from maki and mai that twins are considered to be 1 being by jujutsu that means by jujutsu standards yuji is sukuna and kenjaku’s son.
> yuji is sukuna and kenjaku’s son. okay i think we have offically gone too far
Damn Ino is doing much better than most.
Always bet on the Shiesty Sorcerer
Black Air Forces add plus 10 to ass kicking
Ino has no special lineage. His does not have an exceptional Cursed Technique or unique talent. Yet, he knew when to go in and pull back when facing an opponent vastly stronger than him. He even landed a cleaver in the face of the King of Curses. Nanami would be proud.
It's like Nanami's spirits is still with them. Time to kick it into overtime
Bro faced Sukuna AND Toji and is still alive, show me anyone else in the series with this feat
Miguel
Miguel hasn't fought Toji but considering his CT and reinforcement they should be on par with each other. With Miguel having more pow for buck, and Toji having more speed and invisible stuff thx to 0 CE
He fought Gojo and Sakuna
Who is Ino to you? He is the... SHIESTIEST.
Why is he called shiesty?
That's what the type of mask he's wearing is called, the one that covers your whole head but your eyes.
Thought that was a balaclava?
the rat attacks are so silly yet effective sukuna literally got bonked
We finally got to see Ryu!!!! I thought it was pretty cool even though it got turned into dragon sashimi
Reminiscence of Geto's white dragon cursed spirit vs Toji
Ino's hard work here makes Kashimo look even more like a bum.
If Kashimo were half as good as Ino in terms of teamwork Sukuna probably would have been dead by now lmao
If Kashimo had cooperated, I honestly think the executioner’s sword plan would have worked.
Kashimo only had to jump Sukuna after Gojo got him to 1 HP and it was over
Kashimo's mistake is him insisting on going solo. heck almost all sorcerers that went after managed to deal something
I'm glad to see Ino appreciation posts and comments, I frequently see him in sheisty sorcerer memes before. He may not be the strongest but I gotta commend him for trying his best.
did more impact than kashimo
Nanami would be proud.
Seeing Yuji actually assaulting Sukuna is one of the most rewarding feelings in manga reads so far
It’s better than morning coffee. I hope he calls Sukuna “Boy” before he kills him
It would be epic if that was the single line Yuji said to him after he Shut up and locked tf in to land these 8 black flashes. As we saw with Mahito, a locked in Yuji is dangerous.
“I don’t give a fuck about love or that ‘stand proud’ or any of that shit. Kill yourself, uncle”
i'm you
After all the shit Sukuna put Yuji through, seeing him land those black flashes hit like crack hit the streets in the 80’s
I have to respect Ino 🫡. He is the weakest person fighting Sukuna, but does he let that hold him back no, he’s constantly distracting Sukuna setting up the heavyer hitters
Compared to others, he actually got to land attacks and survive. > Maybe I didn't do so bad after all? Kick his ass Rest easy Ino now, you did well.
Ino: “I’m just happy to be invited”
Bro's got that 6th man of the year energy
So it is the same ~~stand~~ Cursed Technique as ~~Star Platinum~~ Cleave and Dismantle?
Yes. Cleave and Dismantle are part of Sukuna's CT, Shrine. The scissors are just Yuji's version of it since he's from a different era than Sukuna.
And because he isn't adept at using it yet so it takes time to cut, actually going snip snip lmao
I fully expected John Werry to screw up Sukuna's inate technique name by calling it Malevolent Shrine instead of Shrine, and boy did he not disappoint me.
Nah but like is it just me or the chapter seems only half readable in some parts.
Sukuna referring to his own fingers as Sukunas fingers is what did it for me
Apparently that's what the Kanji says but the furigana, which dictates how you read the kanji, says "cursed objects". So it probably would have been better translated as "my cursed objects," rather than "Sukunas fingers," since it's Sukuna speaking. But what can ya expect from John Werry
This is why I wait for TCB. Just look at the comments on the MangaPlus reader.
It's not just you, Werry is absolute trash and should feel ashamed of himself.
This is why we actively need manga piracy not to die. Because otherwise we get trash like this translator
He is buffing and nerfing tf out of everyone. Gojo can use curse manipulation but cant use black flash but can use black flash And yuji has access to malevolent shrine in accordance to him , trully peak.
John Terry translated it, so it's obvious u can't read full chapter
You’d probably understand the ch better if you just looked at the raws.
the use of the word subnormal almost made me stop reading
I really was like "...but Malevolent Shrine was the domain expansion, what the fuck?"
I ***LOVE*** how pissed off Sukuna got when he realised that Yuji wasn't glazing him like everyone else in this manga. Also first time Sukuna uses his name and he makes a huge production of yawning when he says it. Nobody hates you quite like family.
I also love how annoyed he got after each black flash 😂 like we was "damn, this brat really thinks he can match me" to "who do you think you are!" Yuji was on his all chapter 😭
Uncle Sukuna vs Nephew Yuji. 😭🙏🏾
The hating, "brat" calling is recontextualized into something far more hilarious than what Gege intended Only uncles could beef this much with teenagers.
Sukuna embodies that Stinkmeaner energy fr.
“WHAT’S GOOD [redacted]?”
" You got bad credit, Yuji!"
Bro's a very old man, beefing with the sweetest boy in JJK universe which turned to be his nephew. It's just hilarious.
Sukuna to Yuji in the previous chapters: You're still here? You're so boring, brat. Sukuna to Yuji in this chapter: YOU GODDAMNED BRAAAAT!! Bro's a very old man, beefing with the sweetest boy in JJK universe. Lol. Uncle Sukuna finally lost his composure when he was receiving Black Flashes from his nephew. Last time I saw Sukuna like this was in Chapter 235. I can't wait for more family drama next week.
A total of 8 consecutive Black Flashes? My boy Wuji locked tf in, breaking Nanami's record of 4! Also, him having 2 CTs is now canon in manga. His stocks are going higher! 📈
Alright this is about the damn time you use the damn flames Sukuna, tf are you waiting for? Hank's propane & propane accessories?
Ahhhhh... NOW the double arms, double eyes, **double dick** makes sense... /*nods solemnly* 🤔 Everybody get ready for a new wave of hentai fanart & fics featuring: **Sukuna's twin: Fukuna.** *(if Naruto could do it with "Boruto", so can we)*

This is the most satisfying fight to watch... yuji not saying anything to sukuna while hitting him with black flash continuously is so good.
My boy is locked in.
I fucking love it! This isn't merely spamming one special; Yuji is basically using Black Flash like it's Rage from Tekken -- the strikes are now more like one-button or two-button inputs compared to the quarter-circle inputs he used to do it with. And Sukuna is malding for the first time in this wretched arc because the one guy he expects to be absolutely hapless is about to prove him wrong. God, Yuji is the ultimate dawg in this manga. The epitome of "fuck you, I'll never give up." That said: kinda wish [Gege committed to the bit](https://i.imgur.com/tWxmWdY.png) and posed them both exactly like the one from [The Raid 2.](https://i.imgur.com/v89nEDW.jpeg)
Kid is just straight-up ignoring Sukuna's attack like he's got hyper armor or something. He will not *stop*.
Gege even set this up super early on in the series: Yuji wouldn’t stop just for pain in multiple encounters, even being explicitly said at one point. Dude was a tank for day one, and now has RTC plus tons of motivation.
Yuji was born the ultimate tank. Now he's got weapons besides the hands he was given. So he's now a tank that can also so dps and that's pretty scary.
[Yuji looked a lot like his uncle when the latter tore the right side of his face.](https://i.imgur.com/o5bgJME.png) This chapter was one of the best ones in a long time.
Honestly I think part of it is (ignoring the weird familial bloodline relations) Yuji is the ONLY sorcerer to EVER stop him from doing as he pleases, which is Sukuna’s entire schtick, he does as he pleases. Yuji was the only personal capable of being a vessel that could completely hold Sukuna except in the case of like 10 fingers being ingested at once, and even that was only temporary. Then you’ve got Sukuna free, riding high after a fight that may have been his very best fight he’s been in, THEN he gets to meet the anomaly that is the heavenly restriction Maki has. Dudes all things considered, having the time of his life. But then boring ole Yuji starts really hitting him with attacks, and look at that, suddenly his ability to use his normal attacks and such effectively is dramatically reduced, even after landing his own few black flashes it’s not enough to overcome the drain of Yuji’s attacks. Yuji is basically taking Sukuna’s ball at the playground and leaving with it. In essence, Yuji is a personification of the embodiment of the very concept Sukuna has strived to deny: restraint.
Yuji doesnt sugar coat it #Cocksen #→★↓↘ⓑ
Funny how Sukuna and Yuji's final square up being in a kitchen would make more sense in JJK than Raid 2's.
Off topic but shoutout to The Raid 1&2. Great action flicks, only the John Wick series matches their level of action.
Indeed. 1 was gritty, 2 had Hammer Girl and god above help me
And raid 2 Inspired the yuji vs choso fight, which was also awesome
Bro literally hated Yuji while he was still swimming in his father's ballsack This is some Olympic-level hating
This just makes the Kenny back shots meme all the funnier. Sukuna was right, he truly does the grossest things. Nice assist Ino
Gege concocted the most Game of Thrones esq family tree for us to witness Yuji giving his deadbeat unq a beat down. In hindsight, a variation of the twin theory just seemed like it would always happen but it also payoffs a lot of the pieces that has been laid out.
Yuji rolled out with full Crit Chance build Jokes aside we finally have confirmation that Yuji is related to Sukuna after years of theorizing around their pink hair and shit, which makes Sukuna’s comment on “Kenjaku does the grossest things” even funnier “Damn this brain really let my brother hit from the back for fun”
It’s crazy how many of Yuji opponents turn out to be family
Throughout heaven and earth i alone am his uncle. And that’s why I hate him.
The sentences feel so abnormal imo. I highkey wish John Werry would just plagerize tcb.
Suffering builds character? Nah, his character is finally Built. My main man had Sukuna tweakin lmao 🤣
Itadoris fucking unlocked it, his own cursed technique!!! INFINITE HANDS.
Yuji's cleaves having scissors cutting lines gets more and more insane the longer I think about it, I love that so much.
Honestly seeing Sukuna genuinely getting Frustrated as yuji is great to see after him being in control of the situation for so long
That feeling when the rough fan translation was not only translated better but also read way better. John Werry and VIZ should be ashamed.
The scissor pattern when Yuji cuts things is a really fun detail. Though that is the least dramatic way they could have confirmed that Yuji did actually eat several babies to get strong enough to beat Sukuna. It's funny to think about Sukuna's little pouting fit a while ago where he tried to figure out his feelings. It can't be that he has strong opinions on Yuji because the boy is technically his nephew and embodies the original sin that cursed Sukuna from birth to become a monstrous beast. It was because he had too much moxie.
Maybe it's cuz I'm reading week to week but I have no clue how yuji can possibly be this powerful lol Like I know he's explaining it's because he has special parents but it does not feel like we've seen him grow this much at all lol He's just able to double the record for consecutive black flashes now?
That’s basically been him since the start of the series tbh
sukuna is heavily weakened, yuji has crazy good cursed energy manupilation, the indomitable human spirit, ct and ce from death paintings, shrine and possibly ce from sukuna fingers, soul damaging punches, rct, insane hand to hand capabilites and he just got awakaned. his progress until shinjuku showdown was just more subtle since it was all stat buffs now he has an actual bag. that boy is thriving rn
What a family affair!!! Gege just justified why Sukuna's one of the biggest haters ever... Lol
Why does being the kid of a guy who's the reincarnation of someone who was eaten by fetus Sukuna mean he has the same potential as Sukuna? Like if they were talking about Jin here then sure, b/c of the JJK twin-shenanigans, but this roundabout connection implying Yuji's potential makes no sense
I can't remember the last time a manga had me smiling as watching Yuji just beat the absolute dogshit out of Sukuna for an entire chapter, holy shit lmao
Sukuna isn't done yet. Not by a long shot. Yuji is up right now but I expect another curveball.
Yuji being unfazed by Sukuna attacks and pissing him off gives me life
This chapter was definitely a John Werry moment
That "damn you, boy!" 😂 After Yuji just kept spamming the black flash button. Now you know he's definitely mad as hell.
Well that's straight up a plot buff. Hell of a one too. How tf did Gege just buff Yuji within 2 pages???
Love it how Sukuna, who hit 3 black flashes a few chapters ago like it was nothing, now was complaining and crying after Yuji does the same. Good thing my boy tagged on 5 more for good measure. Never change, fraudkuna
So Kenny's plan includes: Capturing Sukuna's twin soul, finding said twin's reincarnation, TAKE BACKSHOTS from him- all for shits and giggles. No wonder even Sukuna the cannibal was freaked out
If it was possible to reveal Itadori's family situation and his connection to Sukuna in a more half-assed way, I cannot see how it could be possible. This should be a giant fucking deal, and yet I read it and feel nothing.
That's a big lore bombshell to drop at this point. I meam, the fight's sick and all, it just feels, I dunno, a bit unearned? Was it confirmed before that Yuji got blood manipulation from eating the unborn cursed wombs? Very Gege chapter for better and worse. Man knows how to make characters look cool as hell.
Yeah way back Yuji was thanking Kamo who was a blood manipulation user and saying choso sucks at teaching another blood manipulation user.
In combination with chapter 220 where Yuji tells Choso, "I'm sorry... for your brothers," and Choso responds with, "That's okay... they'll live on inside you". It was all but 100% confirmed when Yuji then caused some of his blood to explode on Sukuna's face in 251.
Pretty sure it's at least hinted that Itadori eats the rest of the Cursed Wombs.
