Kenjaku already used Idle Transfiguration to start the Culling Games. That’s how he turned the modern people into sorcerers. Also I think Yuji got Blood Manipulation from eating his brothers and not Kenjaku. Because if Yuji had it in him this whole time Gojo would’ve noticed with the Six Eyes. Yuji also said “I’ll eat anything” the same chapter he said sorry to Choso about the brothers and Choso says “It’s okay they’ll live on inside you”.
Yeah I think Yuji gaining abilities by eating people has a better parallel with both Sukuna and how the manga started. Another possibility is he did gain the body swapping from his mom but through eating. That could combine with the blood manipulation in an interesting way.
Wait when tf did he eat his brothers genuine question, i feel like i miss so many tiny details then get confused. Because i still don’t understand where yogi got the fish an arms from.
I think it’s extremely impressive that Gege does all of this exposition of how his power system works but then still manages to add twists to his fights. It’s like he’s saying “you can’t call this cool twist a plot hole, you just weren’t paying attention before”
@@Pokemaster-wg9gx It's literally just because of Tengen right? Her barriers optimize cursed energy and have some weird effect that pretty much makes Japan the center of cursed energy. There are sorcerers in other continents like Miguel, but we don't know specifics.
he was the original MC so maybe. but then again, GeGe might wanna kill off everyone stronger than Yuji so that hes the de facto strongest character. who knows.
I feel like yuji will probably be left, gege won’t let anyone have his way lol, gojo the strongest dies, kenjaku the mastermind loses, megumi the “im gonna die for everyone” kills everyone (well his body), yuji who wants to not be alone like his grandpa is gonna end just like that. Also at the very last chapter gojo will revive and get killed by truck kun XD
@@hoofhearted4i heard Gege hates Yuji . And he was supposed to kill off Yuji during Juvenile detention centre arc.but brought him back due to fan backlash. Yuta probably is the mc ,dude even had his own movie . And killed on of the main villain twice(geto and Kenjaku)
I thoroughly enjoy Gege Yap's chapters. Unlike many other writers, Gege has truly excelled at creating an organic exposition, especially due to the complexity of the power system within the universe. The conversation feels perfectly fitting for these characters in their current situation, adding a compelling dimension to the narrative. Every aspect feels relevant and significantly contributes to driving the story forward. While I understand that such chapters may not appeal to everyone, I find this style of writing to be quite intelligent. Gege has consistently demonstrated this skill since the beginning, so it should come as no surprise to anyone.
Honestly same, I've always liked when Mangaka's take the time to explain not only their power system in detail, but also the many applications and uses that appear later on in the story as the story unfolds.
It's good for showing that the characters aren't going into this half cocked, they are figuring out how each cursed technique can be used for maximum effect in this fight and going in with a plan. Using Deadly Sentencing to fuck with Sukuna via a retrial of Yuji's mass murder trial is a great move and watching them puzzle this out and multiple people giving ideas and inputs into the process to come up with this answer was fascinating.
@@VallornDeathblade Right. As if that's exactly how people in real life would confront a situation like this. Poor exposition occurs when the conveyed information feels contrived and/or is only helpful to the reader. In this scenario, nearly every character present both required the information and had an incentive to contribute to the conversation. This isn't unique either; Gege is a master at making the exposition feel natural and organic to the scene. I very rarely feel like the dialogue is being forced solely for the reader.
i think it would be better if yuji s technique is like inheriting cursed technique when they die or not able to use their technique anymore coz yuji says that he is a cog and cog need another gear to spin so i would make sense that way.
My opinion is that Gege has friends from different disciplines and he uses their expertise in his stories (a cardiologist friend who could inform blood manipulation, a lawyer friend to advise on Japanese law and law history, etc)
he just googles like anyone else would, or paid attention in school, likes to educate himself often. im still shocked people are finding any of the dialogue to be confusing at all, there are 10year olds who would have no problem. its easy shit, just brushes over topics, laws, blah blah, never actually goes into how the shit works in real life, because then youd just be reading legal/research papers and such. like what you think only a cardiologist would think about water making blood lose its consistency? are you actually that stupid you think that is a big brain idea? its a given
its weird I don't remember ever seeing Choso and Kamo have a talk about their bloodline at all. You would think they would at least talk with each other having the same cursed technique could possibly teach each other stuff the other didn't know.
Well with JJK it's hard to know. It's possible they have and it was just off screen. I think Choso understands his cursed technique instinctually since he's part curse, so it's hard to explain to someone else. Noritoshi was trained to understand his technique by the Kamo clan so it makes sense that he would be a better teacher. The only thing Noritoshi could teach Choso is how to store his blood for later, but Choso doesn't really need to know that since he can create blood with cursed energy.
I always thought that Yuji had Blood manipulation. But not because he is Kenjaku's son. I think that Yuji ate the other 6 curse womb paintings and gained their powers.
9:03 I thought Kenjaku used Idol Transfiguration to affect Tengen’s Barrier in order to alter the brains of people across Japan to awaken their potential as sorcerers. That way he could actually do the Culling Game.
I love it when Kenjaku used his Idol Transfiguration Technique to turn Tengan into a cute girl dancing and singing on the stage turning on every person to be sorcerers
@@KingKydraAgreed . Also with your older given what happened with yuta and tabaka opens a brand 🆕 can of 🪱🪱🪱🪱 worms not 2 mention the new revelations and 💣💥💥💣 bomb shells.
My theory is that Yuji is a repeat of Sukuna. That he was a once every 1000 years vessel, and he ate his brother taking his curse technique. Hence why he had cleave, dismantle, and the fire power. Yuji followed the same path eating his brothers, gaining their curse technique, in addition to the power to effect the soul.
When Sukuna was glazing jogoat he was surprised that he hadn’t learned ipo or whatever that fire technique was meaning it’s not a technique he would need to be born with to use seeing as he thought jogo might’ve known about it or been able to use it so maybe it’s just a lost technique
@jjup6164 I think it has to be Sukuna's original techniques due to Sukuna referencing that his use of fire was common knowledge in the past. Curse spirits lose their memories when they are reborn, so if Jogo was reborn after Sukuna was turned into fingers he would have no way of knowing about it.
My theory on Yuji is that he has one innate technique and a "vessel" technique based on what he's eaten. His true ability is that he can "possess" by soul swap or "haunt" someone hitting them with his own soul. I think the word haunt best describes what Yuji has shown from the very beginning all the way until now. If you think about it, haunting can mean a lot of things in the jjk universe. I don't know what a domain could look like but his soul swap is already confirmed, we could compare that to a ghost haunting/possessing someone. And we already know he can attack or "haunt"a person's soul directly with left right goodnight punches. Think about it. What exactly did Yuji do to Choso and Todo's minds? This somehow happened twice in front of our faces and we never saw these memories reflect in Yuji's point of view or mind for some odd reason... only his opponent. Todo had a full blown hallucination after finding out they have similar tastes in women and Choso seemed to be having a scary revelation after winning his fight. Choso's case was interesting because it was like these memories were haunting him, like they were suppressed or something. But that's when the narrator explicitly stated that non-existant memories were entering his mind... The reactions were so different but I'll just chuck that up to who each person actually is. Todo was easy to accept the hallucinations because he wouldn't be alone in his taste in women. Meanwhile, Choso was more of a hint in my opinion because he already knew who all of his brother/paintings were and all of a sudden he feels haunted and shocked by the (non-existent)memories of "brother Yuji", and decides to spare his "brother's" life. And again, we never got to see Yuji's memories of these things... I'm sure this is a part of his technique. It is just too strange for it to happen twice in important fights for Yuji. and his second technique is just him being a perfect vessel that Kenjaku created. My guess is If he can conquer the soul that he consumes, he can use their technique. This blood technique is likely from eating Choso's brothers/paintings. Choso would be the teacher because he knows his brother's best, but Kamo is just a better teacher.
This is actually a really good point. You are definitely on to something. I think a lot of people wouldn’t think of Toto simply because he is a silly character but you didn’t let that slip.
I can only think of a couple issues with what you bring up. I don’t think soul swapping/ manipulation is a technique, rather an ability like Reverse Cursed Technique. My main argument for this being two things. First in relation to Todo and Choso, next to Higuruma. Firstly, the scenes with Todo and Choso weren’t real memory manipulation nor did it have to do with souls. Choso’s scene was a visual representation of his realisation of Itadori being his brother. Which happened because as we see with Eso and Kechizu, Choso is able to sense his brothers death. He had the same feeling when Itadori was about to die, causing him great mental distress and coming to acknowledge Itadori is among his family. Whereas with Todo, his scene was quite literally just his imagination. At least that’s what makes sense to me. He created the false memories on his own after coming to see Itadori as his brother, he’s spent so long without someone he feels he can relate to. But in recognising Itadori as someone who is ‘just like him’ and can remove his boredom, he felt he’d known him for years and were metaphorical brothers already. It’s quite literally just a gag scene, it’s got all the components of one and is best taken as such. Next there’s the deal with Higuruma. If soul swapping were Itadori’s innate technique, he would have had that taken during his bout with Higuruma. Since being found guilty in the domain will remove that persons technique, but in usual circumstances they keep their cursed energy. But Itadori didn’t. He lost access to his Cursed Energy because he has no innate technique to take, just like Kusakabe. Immediately that should 100% show Itadori has never had a secret hidden technique. His ability now most likely came from eating the death paintings, which is the only way he could suddenly gain a technique other than Sukuna’s. This is also backed up by Gojo letting Itadori know he has no innate technique from the very beginning. Soul swapping is most likely a learnable ability, since the manipulation of souls was taught by Kenjaku to Sukuna in order to create the cursed objects. So it’s not improbable that part of Itadori’s creation involved messing with his innate awareness of the soul, which is why he could swap between himself and Sukuna, and why he could hit Mahito. Plus, you mention multiple techniques, but most people can’t handle that. Unless it’s part of their innate one, like Yuta and Kenjaku. Since your technique is engraved on your brain, you can’t have more than what’s naturally available. Yuta only has a large stock due to Rika being like excess storage, whereas we know Kenjaku can’t support more than 3-4 due to some kind of restriction. Otherwise he would’ve used blood manipulation too, but he only had Kaori’s, his own brain swapping technique and Geto’s Cursed Spirit manipulation. Which implies a hard limit. Overall, the best bet for Itadori’s ability seems to just be blood manipulation, possibly a unique variation, like rupturing the blood cells for a second impact (hence Sukuna shaking), or something like that. The arm could either be part of it, or a cursed tool like Yuta’s iron arm thing. But I think it’s highly unlikely he has more than that due to the nature of how techniques seem to function
@@alduin2437the point about most people not being able to handle it isnt really a thing, whether or not your ability lets you get more abilities you can handle having 4
There was also that panel that made it seem like Yuji and Kusakabe switched bodies for training. Kinda like an off shoot of Kenjakus brain swap. Think Yuji can house multiple powers just like Kenjaku
I love how unique the ending is becoming. I definitely can say I didn’t see any of this coming. It reminds me of Gon and Pitou. A seemingly unkillable creature getting its just desserts at the ultimate price. Definitely feels heavily HXH inspired. I love it.
The pitou flight didn't seem like they were getting what they deserved. Pitou was glad Gon was killing them instead of the king and Pitou died bliss fully believing that they served their purpose. It's good that Pitou died but it honestly felt like the balance of what Gon lost versus what he gained was way off especially when we consider Kite ends up being "fine". I honestly feel like that's what the author was going for there and it really works. Gon sacrificed everything for revenge that was anticlimactic and ultimately pointless.
Sukuna could argue that yuji intentionally eats his fingers and that's why all of this is happening. He could argue Yuji chose to make a binding vow which allowed him to take control of megumi's body. He could say he's a ghost from the past and isn't even relevant to court laws. Etc
Initially, your train of thought makes sense… but then after reading chapter 244 like 5 or 6 times i think you mightve missed a really crucially mechanic to this trial: 1- a crime has been committed, any crime requires a defendant otherwise its not a crime its only… well… a natural disaster… but that is obviously not the case since judgeman declared that court is in session in lights of “a crime of genocide committed during the shibuya incident” 2- since the topic in question is shibuya incident genocide… judgeman is only concerned about the time period the crime was committed… and it just happens to be that sukuna was contained by yuuji during that period 3- yes there is a binding vow that yuuji agreed to “technically”… but yuuji was out cold and forced fed 10 fingers at the time sukuna took control before the massacre… he didnt relinquish control according to the vow or even at his own will… this was all really forced onto him 3- sukuna did declare to jogo “how about i massacre everyone in a 400 meter radius except for one person” (the reason i am bringing this up is because yuuji remembers as seen in the flashbacks after he retook control and so he can technically use it as proof against sukuna… but that is largely speculative on my part) 4- sure sukuna was only active with yuujis body acting as proxy and sukuna was technically a wraith of sorts haunting yuuji during the shibuya massacre… he did reincarnate and is physically manifested in megumis body now and he is no longer a haunting wraith but physically here as a person if that makes sense (this might mean megumi is effectively dead btw since one of the conditions of manifestation is the original soul effectively dying out) In regards to point 4… i am curious how higuruma and yuuji will play it out to make it so that “manifested” sukuna is responsible for his crimes as “yuuji-haunted-wraith” sukuna
I am also interested how they can carry out this trial in a way to kill sukuna but save megumi (if there is anything left of him to save at this point)… it could be that this would be a trial against the construct of sukuna as an individual and not his physical corporeal form and so any means of killing him through killing megumis body would render the death penalty null as it wouldve sacraficed an innocent life Now someone might say that megumi isn’t actually innocent as far as summoning mahoraga but remember he was summoned only to kill that pony tail bitch… if it wasnt for sukuna saving them both and fighting out against mahoraga this whole situation couldve been avoided all together
Of course this brings about an interesting mechanic into higurumas domain… that being even if someone killed one life or more… killing them still counts as murder and is therefore a crime… this is a testament to sukuna being potentially trialed for killing getos daughters who actually killed people before This would mean that while megumi might be responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people… since he is not the subject defendant of this trial.. killing him in the process of killing sukuna renders that act null Assuming he is still alive of course
It didn’t go over my head that Yuji possibly inherited Blood Manipulation I thought that was obvious since Choso and Noritoshi are both from the Kamo clan and have blood manipulation CT. I also however thought Yuji got Sukuna’s CT from being bathed in his Cursed Energy on top of whatever else he got by eating the Death Paintings which I think is how he got Blood Manipulation.
He used Idle Transfiguration nationwide to awaken people marked to become cursed sorcerors and incarnate all the old school sorcerors. Kenjaku with repeated use of Idle Transfiguration would be horrifying since he can essentially use it via Bluetooth.
@@magikarp1666also speaks volumes about kenjakus jujutsu iq. Mahito was actually one of the most prodigious characters in the entire story so for Kenjaku to pretty much immediately master his technique like that shows his level of understanding and mastery in jujutsu, probably the best feat of jujutsu iq outside of sukuna just immediately learning complex applications of jujutsu after seeing them once.
10:41 it was hinted in the fight with yuki that a brain can’t hold more than like 2-3 techniques before it overworks itself, (why yuta uses external storage) so we don’t know how many techniques kenjaku can actually transfer from body to body since we know at a given time he has 3 techniques 1.body takeover 2.anti gravity system 3. Curse manipulation and we don’t know if he’s forced to keep the most recent techniques or if he chooses which techniques to keep and forget.
@@paroxysm6437 yeah it’s true kenjaku isn’t human I’m still sure his cursed technique has rules and limitations.if not why even mention in that chapter about the brain’s capacity for cursed techniques at all…kenjaku is the only “thing” other than yuta with multiple techniques so it makes sense that the explanation was about kenjakus technique
@@Snow-l2z brain capacity only applies to people with brains yuta has a cursed spirit that can contain multiple cursed techniques as you said so I don’t see why kenjaku can’t have multiple as well
Not only that but you can call it kenjaku being precautious if you want but he himself hasn’t shown that he can use anymore than his brain swapping technique, his current host techniques and techniques from the most recent host.
That bit at the end there is a great perspective to have towards making this kind of content. Your desire to research and formulate digestible content is much appreciated
I think what happened is that yuji got blood manipulation from eating the death paintings, as his technique I feel will go along with sukuna and kenjaku having multiple techniques as his body can intake and assimilate the cursed energy and techniques of curse objects he consumes, this is also likely given a comment from a data book for gege asking what would happen if yuji ate the 6 death womb paintings and he would either get their techniques or their energy, the second being the case if sukuna was still in his body
If Yuji ate the 6 remaining death womb paintings as many of us suspect, I think it is likely that he would get more than just blood manipulation. A clan like the Kamo clan likely has more than just one inheritable cursed technique, i think its more likely that its more like blood manipulation is just their best one that they are most known for. Like how the Zenin's treasured curse technique is Ten Shadows but they still have several other cursed techniques and even heavenly restrictions that can be passed down. Now if I'm right and Yuji did inherit more techniques from his death womb brothers, it still might not be super useful to him if there isnt someone to teach him how to use it given how short the time-skip was, but i think its definitely something that could come up.
I just assumed that Yuji's ability whne he hit Sukuna is just a better divergent fist. Like rather than just 1 delayed hit after a punch, its many, causing a vibration type of effect. Maybe even causing them to stack drastically increasing his AP.
I mean yuji has tons of paths to getting stronger, maybe through training with hakari or kashimo he learned cursed energy properties, yuji might be able to learn domain amp and just constantly nullify ct in all fights, new shadow style things too
Possibly he floods all the different cursed energies from the wombs into his hits seperately so he kinda gets multiple chances for a black falsh for every strike he lands
@@shadow-faye black flash is when the cursed energy wave and physical body of a sorcerer hit the opponent at the same time, if there are multiple seperate waves of cursed energy there are multiple waves of cursed energy to potentially hit the opponent at the same time as the physical attack
Me who usually comes for the man who can yap for 20 minutes straight and still yap on a podcast but seeing the dog in the background and just staring at it
Thing is, you mentioned that Higuruma’s Domain Expansion is similar to ones they had in the Heian Era - it’s presumptuous to think that Sukuna has not encountered a domain like this already, and dealt with one like this already - I think that is why Sukuna is smiling in the domain
So a supped up version of blood doping mixed with soul manipulation/body swapping/gravity and possibly Sukuna’s own techniques etched into Yuji he’d be an absolute menace. It’d be crazy if Yuji has blood manipulation with ever changing cursed technique properties of both Sukuna and Kenjaku.
This was a very interesting video and you made some good points. I lean more on the side of readers that love the explanations and make you wonder how the characters are gonna use their techniques. To the point where Higuruma's technique became one of my favs. It's one of the reasons I love Jojo so much, the idea of simple stands that can be overpowered based on how the user chooses to use it, is super interesting (see Okuyasu having a broken technique but not knowing how to use it to its fullest potential).
Wild theory, if it's true that season 2 is ending with Yuta's appearance in the declaration to kill yuji, imagine gege just kills him off in the manga, as yuta appears in the anime again, just like how gege treated nobara, gojo etc,, that's gonna be brutal asf😈
@@RandomPerson28337 Yes, that's the point. What this person is saying is, Yuta will die in the manga at the same time he's reintroduced in the anime (in the past).
Kanjaku already used idle transfiguration to start the culling games. Also gojo assured Yuji he had no cursed technique, none. But as a cursed like object he imprinted in the techniques of Sukuna and soon the techniques of his brothers.
dozens of people have speculated that Yuji had blood manipulation back when Choso said something like it's okay as long as they are being put to good use and Yuji said he would eat anything to kill Sukuna when they said Yuji is like a curse tool bathed in Sukuna's cursed energy.im pretty sure you're the only one who didn't think of this.
A small theory regarding yuji's curse technique. Do you know in buddhism there is actually 10 corpse paintings instead of 9? The 10th painting is called 妄相. The reason why there are only 9 paintings in japan is because 妄相 cannot be painted. You might already knew that the 9 corpse painting is for monks to look at decaying corpses of women to get rid of their desires towards women. 妄相 is the obsession towards someone that is only imagination, so ancient japanese cannot draw something that doesnt exist. It was a concept difficult to understand in ancient times, but it is much more common in modern times. For example, simping for anime characters is an obsession towards someone that doesnt exist. Yuji is exactly the tenth member of the corpse paintings, being born in a modern time. By the way yuji's dad is also obsessed to 妄相 since he knew his wife no longer exist but he still fucked kenjaku as if his wife is still alive. Yuji being 妄相 supports the theory that the "fake memory" shit is yuji's CT. He unknowingly induced people to imagine him in their wishes and turning them into fake memories. Todo imagined having a best friend while Choso imagined spending quality time with his bros. I believe there is a high chance choso would die and yuji would have to eat him too. After that he would have all the ten paintings inside him. As he gone through the 10 paintings and get rid of his obsessions. He would become enlightened like a buddha and might gain a new ability. If you ask me i wish his new ability is a domain expansion that gets rid of everyone's, including his, curse energy and technique, since reaching enlightenment is realizing everythig and nothing are the same. Not only it suits Yuji as a superhuman, it is also a good way to counter sukuna's OP abilities.
This seems way more legit tbh. But instead of desires, could it be that Yuji's forced hallucinations is actually caused by him directly affecting their soul, as stated by Mahito. This doesn't happen with Mahito or curses because of them not having these kinds of desires (being pure, as stated by volcanohead) . Mahito is the only one who could detect this and that is the reason Gojo couldn't read Yuji's CT: Gojo doesn't understand soul manipulation. I'm really subscribing to Yuji (as you explained) being the 10th painting and having soul manipulation as his CT, hence why his punches are lethal (they directly affect their soul). When Yuji masters this CT, I would imagine him doing way more than divergent fist, actually damaging someones soul no matter where he hits. Kinda mimiking Kugisaki's resonance and Nanami's "critical hit" CT's. Both which were effective against Mahito. His fists transforming is probably to show Yuji's current level of soulmastery, meaning he can also awaken the rest of his body, becoming better at soulaffecting attacks. I think ppl read way too much into the bloodmanipulation and being the perfect vessel. Eating the other paintings probably just boosts his innate CT (completing the DWP-collection increases his mastery and probably lets him use reverse technique) and the whole perfect vessel thing isn't like Ben 10, it just keeps Itadori from being taken over by the consumed curses.
I love this theory for all the theories people have come up with this makes most sense like I'm 89% sure this is what is actually going on. Could use a little tweaking but if this is True jjk community is gonna go wild
The fact he says "statue" instead of "statute" is driving me insane. There is no stone carving that decides the duration of culpability; it's an entirely different word! It's seeing someone write "should of" instead of "should have." It's maddening
There's also an interesting thing about the fact that Yuji might have like, Blood Manipulation x7. After all, Chouso said that his brothers "Live on inside him", meaning he might have eaten/absorbed his remaining 6 brothers and gotten their Cursed Techniqued on top of his
I think Yuji got blood manipulation from eating the rest of the Death Womb Paintings, not from Kenjaku being his parent. He said sorry to Choso about his brothers the same chapter he said he'd eat anything to win. I even believe he might have gotten one ability per Death Womb Painting, since the blood manipulation alone wouldn't explain the soul-swapping ability we see him use while training with Kusakabe. Also, Kenjaku has stated that he's only capable of keeping four abilities at a time, one being his body-hopping technique, another being the current host's cursed technique (curse manipulation, now that he's inside Geto). He kept Kaori's antigravity system and there's another technique we haven't see him use. We don't know yet wether he kept blood manipulation to even be able to pass it down to Yuji. Also, Kenjaku already used idle transfiguration to initiate the culling game. For example, that's how Higuruma became a sorcerer, through idle transfiguration.
Man, the comedy fight in the previous chapter to me was so good, it was just dialogue. And it made me so emotional at the end I didn’t understand why and I sat there with teary eyes lmao.
Yuji said he would eat anything and Choso said his brother would live inside of him in chapter 220 so most likely he actually ate all them all. Also in Chapter 144 Choso infront of the warehouse where his brother are he says he'll come back a little later for them so he probably took them after leaving Tengen to go back to the other and would've been able to feed them to his other brother Yuji to make him stronger

@@Marcelofilho24 Suspension of disbelief for one thing doesn't mean suspension of disbelief for everything. Besides, while inheriting techniques is possible for SOME of them, and I can even accept that it is possible for all of them in some way, it just doesn't make sense from a storytelling standpoint, and in fact Yuji getting Sukuna's cursed technique would make much more sense.
it just so happens the infodump regarding the law in japan was padding because it was ultimately narrowed down to the domain < unknown > rule, gege is a hack but sunken cost fallacy keeps me hooked lmao
Since the animated fight of yuji v Mahitos recently, it's my headcanon that Yujis cursed technique is soul manipulation exactly the same as Mahitos. Between Mahitos line of "we are the same" and the fact that Yuji is completely immune to idle transfiguration, it seems like the most likely answer.
@trashseatgaming3364 That is true. I do like the theory of soul manipulation but for the sake of argument, Mahito not being able to touch him is because of Sukuna, not because he is immune. I've had the theory that since Yuji had landed so many blackflashes throughout the series(which in the Manga are stated to bring you closer to cursed energy), maybe Yuji got closer to his soul using all the knowledge he had obtained. Soul Manipulation is nonetheless still a pretty solid theory. Just wanted to say that he ain't immune to Idle Transfiguration yknow?
True , I know that because his new hands show that he can change his body to whatever he wants to damage sukuna That power would make his absolutely broken , especially with yujis strength
So more then likely Yuji has found a way to manipulate his soul using the book that Yuki gave Choso and found a way to make his body stronger using the other death paintings.
@@SmokeD.hashira20makes sense, I wonder if that's his cursed technique or if it's just something you can do if you're a vessel that's aware of your soul. Like maybe it's not a cursed technique but just like how he could host sukuna he can host the death paintings but unlike sukuna he can manifest their abilities without losing control of his body. That'd be insane because he'd have potentially multiple cursed techniques and still might manifest his own/sukuna's.

i think it's flame he just don't know it yet it's why there was a cut why Sukuna never uses open it's yuji not his then he seems to have good understanding of other CT more than them like ten shadow it's why he knows how to use open btw anyone can learn blood sukuna ues it show this

Kenjaku already used Idle Transfiguration to start the Culling Games. That’s how he turned the modern people into sorcerers. Also I think Yuji got Blood Manipulation from eating his brothers and not Kenjaku. Because if Yuji had it in him this whole time Gojo would’ve noticed with the Six Eyes. Yuji also said “I’ll eat anything” the same chapter he said sorry to Choso about the brothers and Choso says “It’s okay they’ll live on inside you”.
Agree with you
Yeah I think Yuji gaining abilities by eating people has a better parallel with both Sukuna and how the manga started. Another possibility is he did gain the body swapping from his mom but through eating. That could combine with the blood manipulation in an interesting way.
Wait when tf did he eat his brothers genuine question, i feel like i miss so many tiny details then get confused. Because i still don’t understand where yogi got the fish an arms from.
@@christopherwizzart1966 It was implied when Yuji said "Sorry about your brothers" and "I'll eat anything"
Also you should take this person's job coz I can't handle his bs anymore 😂(meant the youtuber don't know his name to lazy to check it)
I think it’s extremely impressive that Gege does all of this exposition of how his power system works but then still manages to add twists to his fights. It’s like he’s saying “you can’t call this cool twist a plot hole, you just weren’t paying attention before”
how do you justify negativity only being a problem in Japan then?
@@Pokemaster-wg9gx It's literally just because of Tengen right? Her barriers optimize cursed energy and have some weird effect that pretty much makes Japan the center of cursed energy. There are sorcerers in other continents like Miguel, but we don't know specifics.
@@Pokemaster-wg9gx it was explained that Tengens barriers are making Japan kind of the only place where curses can exist

@@ArminFarzanehOK but like, why the fuck does Tengen have a barrier if that's the entire issue then
Gege was totally a powerscaler before becoming a mangaka. They’re too good at covering their ass with these power explanations.
Most definitely
Gege is a Redditor change my mind lol
Abso-fucking-lutely.
Nah power scalers are brain dead. Gege is big brained
@@Mavuika_Gyaruright
The only character I’m confident will survive JJK is, oddly enough, Yuta.
he was the original MC so maybe. but then again, GeGe might wanna kill off everyone stronger than Yuji so that hes the de facto strongest character. who knows.
I feel like yuji will probably be left, gege won’t let anyone have his way lol, gojo the strongest dies, kenjaku the mastermind loses, megumi the “im gonna die for everyone” kills everyone (well his body), yuji who wants to not be alone like his grandpa is gonna end just like that.
Also at the very last chapter gojo will revive and get killed by truck kun XD
If he doesn't have stitches on his forehead that is....
Nah bro, Yuji’s gotta make it!
@@hoofhearted4i heard Gege hates Yuji . And he was supposed to kill off Yuji during Juvenile detention centre arc.but brought him back due to fan backlash. Yuta probably is the mc ,dude even had his own movie . And killed on of the main villain twice(geto and Kenjaku)
I thoroughly enjoy Gege Yap's chapters. Unlike many other writers, Gege has truly excelled at creating an organic exposition, especially due to the complexity of the power system within the universe. The conversation feels perfectly fitting for these characters in their current situation, adding a compelling dimension to the narrative. Every aspect feels relevant and significantly contributes to driving the story forward. While I understand that such chapters may not appeal to everyone, I find this style of writing to be quite intelligent. Gege has consistently demonstrated this skill since the beginning, so it should come as no surprise to anyone.
Honestly same, I've always liked when Mangaka's take the time to explain not only their power system in detail, but also the many applications and uses that appear later on in the story as the story unfolds.
When it comes to stories I'm a fiend for exposition and lore dumps. Please, tell me more about everything
It's good for showing that the characters aren't going into this half cocked, they are figuring out how each cursed technique can be used for maximum effect in this fight and going in with a plan.
Using Deadly Sentencing to fuck with Sukuna via a retrial of Yuji's mass murder trial is a great move and watching them puzzle this out and multiple people giving ideas and inputs into the process to come up with this answer was fascinating.
@@VallornDeathblade Right. As if that's exactly how people in real life would confront a situation like this. Poor exposition occurs when the conveyed information feels contrived and/or is only helpful to the reader. In this scenario, nearly every character present both required the information and had an incentive to contribute to the conversation. This isn't unique either; Gege is a master at making the exposition feel natural and organic to the scene. I very rarely feel like the dialogue is being forced solely for the reader.
i think it would be better if yuji s technique is like inheriting cursed technique when they die or not able to use their technique anymore coz yuji says that he is a cog and cog need another gear to spin so i would make sense that way.
My opinion is that Gege has friends from different disciplines and he uses their expertise in his stories (a cardiologist friend who could inform blood manipulation, a lawyer friend to advise on Japanese law and law history, etc)
Exactly,i think he's smart to do all that for his manga.
Or alternatively, just access to google.
Beta readers, consultants
he just googles like anyone else would, or paid attention in school, likes to educate himself often.
im still shocked people are finding any of the dialogue to be confusing at all, there are 10year olds who would have no problem. its easy shit, just brushes over topics, laws, blah blah, never actually goes into how the shit works in real life, because then youd just be reading legal/research papers and such.
like what you think only a cardiologist would think about water making blood lose its consistency? are you actually that stupid you think that is a big brain idea? its a given
Or hired them.
its weird I don't remember ever seeing Choso and Kamo have a talk about their bloodline at all. You would think they would at least talk with each other having the same cursed technique could possibly teach each other stuff the other didn't know.
Well with JJK it's hard to know. It's possible they have and it was just off screen. I think Choso understands his cursed technique instinctually since he's part curse, so it's hard to explain to someone else. Noritoshi was trained to understand his technique by the Kamo clan so it makes sense that he would be a better teacher.
The only thing Noritoshi could teach Choso is how to store his blood for later, but Choso doesn't really need to know that since he can create blood with cursed energy.
@@felix7720Think 🤔💬💬🤔 aside from Yuji curse womb - death 🎨 paintings he Heian Era blood sorcery in him.
I always thought that Yuji had Blood manipulation. But not because he is Kenjaku's son. I think that Yuji ate the other 6 curse womb paintings and gained their powers.
Darn. Spawn killer
Yes. It hinted at this... it was like 10-15 chapters back
His technique will be "9 stages of a decaying corpse."
Look it up it's based off of a real life thing
it's implied that he did eat them
It could also be both
9:03 I thought Kenjaku used Idol Transfiguration to affect Tengen’s Barrier in order to alter the brains of people across Japan to awaken their potential as sorcerers. That way he could actually do the Culling Game.
He definitely did
I love it when Kenjaku used his Idol Transfiguration Technique to turn Tengan into a cute girl dancing and singing on the stage turning on every person to be sorcerers
Hahaha "Idol Transfiguration" is the most japanese technique in the world if you think about it
@@KingKydraAgreed . Also with your older given what happened with yuta and tabaka opens a brand 🆕 can of 🪱🪱🪱🪱 worms not 2 mention the new revelations and 💣💥💥💣 bomb shells.
Oh yeah, Idol transfiguration, technique that Todo used when fighting Mahito LMAO.
My theory is that Yuji is a repeat of Sukuna. That he was a once every 1000 years vessel, and he ate his brother taking his curse technique. Hence why he had cleave, dismantle, and the fire power. Yuji followed the same path eating his brothers, gaining their curse technique, in addition to the power to effect the soul.
Also it kind works with the theme of death being a mirror, and mahito stating that yuji and the people he fights against are the same.
I don't think the fire is a normal cursed technique, there's definitely something special about it
@@alt-q1y there is indeed something "SPECIALZ" about it...
When Sukuna was glazing jogoat he was surprised that he hadn’t learned ipo or whatever that fire technique was meaning it’s not a technique he would need to be born with to use seeing as he thought jogo might’ve known about it or been able to use it so maybe it’s just a lost technique
@jjup6164 I think it has to be Sukuna's original techniques due to Sukuna referencing that his use of fire was common knowledge in the past. Curse spirits lose their memories when they are reborn, so if Jogo was reborn after Sukuna was turned into fingers he would have no way of knowing about it.
My theory on Yuji is that he has one innate technique and a "vessel" technique based on what he's eaten. His true ability is that he can "possess" by soul swap or "haunt" someone hitting them with his own soul. I think the word haunt best describes what Yuji has shown from the very beginning all the way until now. If you think about it, haunting can mean a lot of things in the jjk universe. I don't know what a domain could look like but his soul swap is already confirmed, we could compare that to a ghost haunting/possessing someone. And we already know he can attack or "haunt"a person's soul directly with left right goodnight punches.
Think about it. What exactly did Yuji do to Choso and Todo's minds? This somehow happened twice in front of our faces and we never saw these memories reflect in Yuji's point of view or mind for some odd reason... only his opponent. Todo had a full blown hallucination after finding out they have similar tastes in women and Choso seemed to be having a scary revelation after winning his fight. Choso's case was interesting because it was like these memories were haunting him, like they were suppressed or something. But that's when the narrator explicitly stated that non-existant memories were entering his mind... The reactions were so different but I'll just chuck that up to who each person actually is. Todo was easy to accept the hallucinations because he wouldn't be alone in his taste in women. Meanwhile, Choso was more of a hint in my opinion because he already knew who all of his brother/paintings were and all of a sudden he feels haunted and shocked by the (non-existent)memories of "brother Yuji", and decides to spare his "brother's" life. And again, we never got to see Yuji's memories of these things... I'm sure this is a part of his technique. It is just too strange for it to happen twice in important fights for Yuji.
and his second technique is just him being a perfect vessel that Kenjaku created. My guess is If he can conquer the soul that he consumes, he can use their technique. This blood technique is likely from eating Choso's brothers/paintings. Choso would be the teacher because he knows his brother's best, but Kamo is just a better teacher.
This is actually a really good point. You are definitely on to something. I think a lot of people wouldn’t think of Toto simply because he is a silly character but you didn’t let that slip.
I can only think of a couple issues with what you bring up.
I don’t think soul swapping/ manipulation is a technique, rather an ability like Reverse Cursed Technique.
My main argument for this being two things. First in relation to Todo and Choso, next to Higuruma.
Firstly, the scenes with Todo and Choso weren’t real memory manipulation nor did it have to do with souls. Choso’s scene was a visual representation of his realisation of Itadori being his brother. Which happened because as we see with Eso and Kechizu, Choso is able to sense his brothers death. He had the same feeling when Itadori was about to die, causing him great mental distress and coming to acknowledge Itadori is among his family.
Whereas with Todo, his scene was quite literally just his imagination. At least that’s what makes sense to me. He created the false memories on his own after coming to see Itadori as his brother, he’s spent so long without someone he feels he can relate to. But in recognising Itadori as someone who is ‘just like him’ and can remove his boredom, he felt he’d known him for years and were metaphorical brothers already. It’s quite literally just a gag scene, it’s got all the components of one and is best taken as such.
Next there’s the deal with Higuruma. If soul swapping were Itadori’s innate technique, he would have had that taken during his bout with Higuruma. Since being found guilty in the domain will remove that persons technique, but in usual circumstances they keep their cursed energy.
But Itadori didn’t. He lost access to his Cursed Energy because he has no innate technique to take, just like Kusakabe. Immediately that should 100% show Itadori has never had a secret hidden technique.
His ability now most likely came from eating the death paintings, which is the only way he could suddenly gain a technique other than Sukuna’s.
This is also backed up by Gojo letting Itadori know he has no innate technique from the very beginning.
Soul swapping is most likely a learnable ability, since the manipulation of souls was taught by Kenjaku to Sukuna in order to create the cursed objects. So it’s not improbable that part of Itadori’s creation involved messing with his innate awareness of the soul, which is why he could swap between himself and Sukuna, and why he could hit Mahito.
Plus, you mention multiple techniques, but most people can’t handle that. Unless it’s part of their innate one, like Yuta and Kenjaku. Since your technique is engraved on your brain, you can’t have more than what’s naturally available.
Yuta only has a large stock due to Rika being like excess storage, whereas we know Kenjaku can’t support more than 3-4 due to some kind of restriction. Otherwise he would’ve used blood manipulation too, but he only had Kaori’s, his own brain swapping technique and Geto’s Cursed Spirit manipulation. Which implies a hard limit.
Overall, the best bet for Itadori’s ability seems to just be blood manipulation, possibly a unique variation, like rupturing the blood cells for a second impact (hence Sukuna shaking), or something like that. The arm could either be part of it, or a cursed tool like Yuta’s iron arm thing.
But I think it’s highly unlikely he has more than that due to the nature of how techniques seem to function
yap sesh
@@zzblank can’t read?
@@alduin2437the point about most people not being able to handle it isnt really a thing, whether or not your ability lets you get more abilities you can handle having 4
I'd still really like Yuji's Domain Expansion to be a boxing ring where they have to fight with no cursed energy
So you want Yuji's domain expansion to be a worse version of Higaruma's, interesting.
Lame
We rly gotta let this idea go
WOW!!!! such a unimaginative idea dude , go read a book or something man. Put down the Fifa and UFC dude.
@@brimward122fr
There was also that panel that made it seem like Yuji and Kusakabe switched bodies for training. Kinda like an off shoot of Kenjakus brain swap. Think Yuji can house multiple powers just like Kenjaku
I love how unique the ending is becoming. I definitely can say I didn’t see any of this coming. It reminds me of Gon and Pitou. A seemingly unkillable creature getting its just desserts at the ultimate price. Definitely feels heavily HXH inspired. I love it.
Gege said a few years ago jjk could just end with sukuna winning
Or itadori being the only one left
@@ethancolbourne5908 no he said it's either ending with yuji dead or yuji being the only one alive
The pitou flight didn't seem like they were getting what they deserved. Pitou was glad Gon was killing them instead of the king and Pitou died bliss fully believing that they served their purpose. It's good that Pitou died but it honestly felt like the balance of what Gon lost versus what he gained was way off especially when we consider Kite ends up being "fine".
I honestly feel like that's what the author was going for there and it really works. Gon sacrificed everything for revenge that was anticlimactic and ultimately pointless.
Its nothing like HxH
Sukuna could argue that yuji intentionally eats his fingers and that's why all of this is happening. He could argue Yuji chose to make a binding vow which allowed him to take control of megumi's body. He could say he's a ghost from the past and isn't even relevant to court laws. Etc
Initially, your train of thought makes sense… but then after reading chapter 244 like 5 or 6 times i think you mightve missed a really crucially mechanic to this trial:
1- a crime has been committed, any crime requires a defendant otherwise its not a crime its only… well… a natural disaster… but that is obviously not the case since judgeman declared that court is in session in lights of “a crime of genocide committed during the shibuya incident”
2- since the topic in question is shibuya incident genocide… judgeman is only concerned about the time period the crime was committed… and it just happens to be that sukuna was contained by yuuji during that period
3- yes there is a binding vow that yuuji agreed to “technically”… but yuuji was out cold and forced fed 10 fingers at the time sukuna took control before the massacre… he didnt relinquish control according to the vow or even at his own will… this was all really forced onto him
3- sukuna did declare to jogo “how about i massacre everyone in a 400 meter radius except for one person” (the reason i am bringing this up is because yuuji remembers as seen in the flashbacks after he retook control and so he can technically use it as proof against sukuna… but that is largely speculative on my part)
4- sure sukuna was only active with yuujis body acting as proxy and sukuna was technically a wraith of sorts haunting yuuji during the shibuya massacre… he did reincarnate and is physically manifested in megumis body now and he is no longer a haunting wraith but physically here as a person if that makes sense (this might mean megumi is effectively dead btw since one of the conditions of manifestation is the original soul effectively dying out)
In regards to point 4… i am curious how higuruma and yuuji will play it out to make it so that “manifested” sukuna is responsible for his crimes as “yuuji-haunted-wraith” sukuna
I am also interested how they can carry out this trial in a way to kill sukuna but save megumi (if there is anything left of him to save at this point)… it could be that this would be a trial against the construct of sukuna as an individual and not his physical corporeal form and so any means of killing him through killing megumis body would render the death penalty null as it wouldve sacraficed an innocent life
Now someone might say that megumi isn’t actually innocent as far as summoning mahoraga but remember he was summoned only to kill that pony tail bitch… if it wasnt for sukuna saving them both and fighting out against mahoraga this whole situation couldve been avoided all together
Of course this brings about an interesting mechanic into higurumas domain… that being even if someone killed one life or more… killing them still counts as murder and is therefore a crime… this is a testament to sukuna being potentially trialed for killing getos daughters who actually killed people before
This would mean that while megumi might be responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people… since he is not the subject defendant of this trial.. killing him in the process of killing sukuna renders that act null
Assuming he is still alive of course
Well.. This didnt age well lol
Expectations:
Reality: Sukuna: Stop all the yapping. Give me your best shot, b1tch.
Yuuji having Kenjaku’s abilities by the end of the series with an all out brawl against Sukuna would be such a dope ending fr, great vid
It didn’t go over my head that Yuji possibly inherited Blood Manipulation I thought that was obvious since Choso and Noritoshi are both from the Kamo clan and have blood manipulation CT. I also however thought Yuji got Sukuna’s CT from being bathed in his Cursed Energy on top of whatever else he got by eating the Death Paintings which I think is how he got Blood Manipulation.
It s obvious for everyone.it’s just clickbait
he probably has 2-3 cursed techniques we know its possible from kenjaku so why can't his son do it too
@@Nugget-1987he got at max about 6
How the hell is that dog sleeping in the back like that while he's yapping like that
He used Idle Transfiguration nationwide to awaken people marked to become cursed sorcerors and incarnate all the old school sorcerors. Kenjaku with repeated use of Idle Transfiguration would be horrifying since he can essentially use it via Bluetooth.
Forget Bluetooth it's that 5G 😆
Higuruma's domain is by far the most intresting and antertaining in the entire series and Gege proved it once again with this chapter.
He used idle transfiguration to awaken cursed techniques in the people in the culling game
Means that was mahitos potential. The ability to idle transfigure without touch. Insane
@@magikarp1666also speaks volumes about kenjakus jujutsu iq. Mahito was actually one of the most prodigious characters in the entire story so for Kenjaku to pretty much immediately master his technique like that shows his level of understanding and mastery in jujutsu, probably the best feat of jujutsu iq outside of sukuna just immediately learning complex applications of jujutsu after seeing them once.
i love how clear and concise your reviews/theories are 🥰 also the mahito/kenjaku technique video would go HARD
10:41 it was hinted in the fight with yuki that a brain can’t hold more than like 2-3 techniques before it overworks itself, (why yuta uses external storage) so we don’t know how many techniques kenjaku can actually transfer from body to body since we know at a given time he has 3 techniques 1.body takeover 2.anti gravity system 3. Curse manipulation and we don’t know if he’s forced to keep the most recent techniques or if he chooses which techniques to keep and forget.
youre forgetting that kenjaku isn't a human. while its a brain it's a cursed spirit, and cured spirits dont have the same rules applied to them
@@paroxysm6437 yeah it’s true kenjaku isn’t human I’m still sure his cursed technique has rules and limitations.if not why even mention in that chapter about the brain’s capacity for cursed techniques at all…kenjaku is the only “thing” other than yuta with multiple techniques so it makes sense that the explanation was about kenjakus technique
@@Snow-l2z brain capacity only applies to people with brains
yuta has a cursed spirit that can contain multiple cursed techniques as you said
so I don’t see why kenjaku can’t have multiple as well
@@paroxysm6437 because he’s a brain and a brain has a limit that’s what the entire chapter was about
Not only that but you can call it kenjaku being precautious if you want but he himself hasn’t shown that he can use anymore than his brain swapping technique, his current host techniques and techniques from the most recent host.
That bit at the end there is a great perspective to have towards making this kind of content. Your desire to research and formulate digestible content is much appreciated
I think what happened is that yuji got blood manipulation from eating the death paintings, as his technique I feel will go along with sukuna and kenjaku having multiple techniques as his body can intake and assimilate the cursed energy and techniques of curse objects he consumes, this is also likely given a comment from a data book for gege asking what would happen if yuji ate the 6 death womb paintings and he would either get their techniques or their energy, the second being the case if sukuna was still in his body
Soul manipulation makes more sense to me
That's just me though
If Yuji ate the 6 remaining death womb paintings as many of us suspect, I think it is likely that he would get more than just blood manipulation. A clan like the Kamo clan likely has more than just one inheritable cursed technique, i think its more likely that its more like blood manipulation is just their best one that they are most known for. Like how the Zenin's treasured curse technique is Ten Shadows but they still have several other cursed techniques and even heavenly restrictions that can be passed down. Now if I'm right and Yuji did inherit more techniques from his death womb brothers, it still might not be super useful to him if there isnt someone to teach him how to use it given how short the time-skip was, but i think its definitely something that could come up.
I just assumed that Yuji's ability whne he hit Sukuna is just a better divergent fist. Like rather than just 1 delayed hit after a punch, its many, causing a vibration type of effect. Maybe even causing them to stack drastically increasing his AP.
I mean yuji has tons of paths to getting stronger, maybe through training with hakari or kashimo he learned cursed energy properties, yuji might be able to learn domain amp and just constantly nullify ct in all fights, new shadow style things too
I thought that Yuji could hit the soul directly, that's why sukuna shakes
Possibly he floods all the different cursed energies from the wombs into his hits seperately so he kinda gets multiple chances for a black falsh for every strike he lands
@@MUIDYLANICEpretty sure its been confirmed that divergent fist cant get black flash since todo first introduced the concept
@@shadow-faye black flash is when the cursed energy wave and physical body of a sorcerer hit the opponent at the same time, if there are multiple seperate waves of cursed energy there are multiple waves of cursed energy to potentially hit the opponent at the same time as the physical attack
Me who usually comes for the man who can yap for 20 minutes straight and still yap on a podcast but seeing the dog in the background and just staring at it
Thing is, you mentioned that Higuruma’s Domain Expansion is similar to ones they had in the Heian Era - it’s presumptuous to think that Sukuna has not encountered a domain like this already, and dealt with one like this already - I think that is why Sukuna is smiling in the domain
Lol, I was watching the dog in parts of this video. Haha, he lays down like he's playing dead! :D
So a supped up version of blood doping mixed with soul manipulation/body swapping/gravity and possibly Sukuna’s own techniques etched into Yuji he’d be an absolute menace. It’d be crazy if Yuji has blood manipulation with ever changing cursed technique properties of both Sukuna and Kenjaku.
I’d like to advocate for triple the amount of jjk videos
Love your content Nick 😊
This was a very interesting video and you made some good points. I lean more on the side of readers that love the explanations and make you wonder how the characters are gonna use their techniques. To the point where Higuruma's technique became one of my favs. It's one of the reasons I love Jojo so much, the idea of simple stands that can be overpowered based on how the user chooses to use it, is super interesting (see Okuyasu having a broken technique but not knowing how to use it to its fullest potential).
Wild theory, if it's true that season 2 is ending with Yuta's appearance in the declaration to kill yuji, imagine gege just kills him off in the manga, as yuta appears in the anime again, just like how gege treated nobara, gojo etc,, that's gonna be brutal asf😈
Do you copy and paste your comments. I have seen you leave basically the same one a few times.
No hate, just curious. I could just be crazy
Don't say shit like that, you're going to manifest it. Gege will find out this was said and make it happen.
Knock on fucking wood
you know the manga is 100 ch ahead of the anime right?
@@RandomPerson28337 Yes, that's the point. What this person is saying is, Yuta will die in the manga at the same time he's reintroduced in the anime (in the past).
I love your puppy dog just chilling in the background 😂❤
Kanjaku already used idle transfiguration to start the culling games. Also gojo assured Yuji he had no cursed technique, none. But as a cursed like object he imprinted in the techniques of Sukuna and soon the techniques of his brothers.
Kenjaku immediately used uzamaki idle tranformation to start the culling games in Shabuya
LETSSSSSS GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! 👏👏 congrats Nick first time in hearing the news about your fam that’s awesome! Your for sure gonna be the best dad😎
dozens of people have speculated that Yuji had blood manipulation back when Choso said something like it's okay as long as they are being put to good use and Yuji said he would eat anything to kill Sukuna when they said Yuji is like a curse tool bathed in Sukuna's cursed energy.im pretty sure you're the only one who didn't think of this.
Nick, he ate the rest of his brothers and we’ve all known forever that he got a technique from it.
A small theory regarding yuji's curse technique.
Do you know in buddhism there is actually 10 corpse paintings instead of 9? The 10th painting is called 妄相. The reason why there are only 9 paintings in japan is because 妄相 cannot be painted. You might already knew that the 9 corpse painting is for monks to look at decaying corpses of women to get rid of their desires towards women. 妄相 is the obsession towards someone that is only imagination, so ancient japanese cannot draw something that doesnt exist. It was a concept difficult to understand in ancient times, but it is much more common in modern times. For example, simping for anime characters is an obsession towards someone that doesnt exist. Yuji is exactly the tenth member of the corpse paintings, being born in a modern time. By the way yuji's dad is also obsessed to 妄相 since he knew his wife no longer exist but he still fucked kenjaku as if his wife is still alive.
Yuji being 妄相 supports the theory that the "fake memory" shit is yuji's CT. He unknowingly induced people to imagine him in their wishes and turning them into fake memories. Todo imagined having a best friend while Choso imagined spending quality time with his bros.
I believe there is a high chance choso would die and yuji would have to eat him too. After that he would have all the ten paintings inside him. As he gone through the 10 paintings and get rid of his obsessions. He would become enlightened like a buddha and might gain a new ability. If you ask me i wish his new ability is a domain expansion that gets rid of everyone's, including his, curse energy and technique, since reaching enlightenment is realizing everythig and nothing are the same. Not only it suits Yuji as a superhuman, it is also a good way to counter sukuna's OP abilities.
This seems way more legit tbh.
But instead of desires, could it be that Yuji's forced hallucinations is actually caused by him directly affecting their soul, as stated by Mahito.
This doesn't happen with Mahito or curses because of them not having these kinds of desires (being pure, as stated by volcanohead) .
Mahito is the only one who could detect this and that is the reason Gojo couldn't read Yuji's CT: Gojo doesn't understand soul manipulation.
I'm really subscribing to Yuji (as you explained) being the 10th painting and having soul manipulation as his CT, hence why his punches are lethal (they directly affect their soul). When Yuji masters this CT, I would imagine him doing way more than divergent fist, actually damaging someones soul no matter where he hits.
Kinda mimiking Kugisaki's resonance and Nanami's "critical hit" CT's. Both which were effective against Mahito.
His fists transforming is probably to show Yuji's current level of soulmastery, meaning he can also awaken the rest of his body, becoming better at soulaffecting attacks.
I think ppl read way too much into the bloodmanipulation and being the perfect vessel.
Eating the other paintings probably just boosts his innate CT (completing the DWP-collection increases his mastery and probably lets him use reverse technique) and the whole perfect vessel thing isn't like Ben 10, it just keeps Itadori from being taken over by the consumed curses.

He might also just have regular blood manipulation but he can switch the effects his blood has on others

I think Yuji got blood manipulation from eating the rest of the Death Womb Paintings, not from Kenjaku being his parent. He said sorry to Choso about his brothers the same chapter he said he'd eat anything to win. I even believe he might have gotten one ability per Death Womb Painting, since the blood manipulation alone wouldn't explain the soul-swapping ability we see him use while training with Kusakabe. Also, Kenjaku has stated that he's only capable of keeping four abilities at a time, one being his body-hopping technique, another being the current host's cursed technique (curse manipulation, now that he's inside Geto). He kept Kaori's antigravity system and there's another technique we haven't see him use. We don't know yet wether he kept blood manipulation to even be able to pass it down to Yuji. Also, Kenjaku already used idle transfiguration to initiate the culling game. For example, that's how Higuruma became a sorcerer, through idle transfiguration.
His CT is soul manipulation bro
Soul swap
His hands changed
19:53 I just noticed your dog totally BASKING in the background
Thank you so so much everything you do and all the time you put into your videos!!
Man, the comedy fight in the previous chapter to me was so good, it was just dialogue. And it made me so emotional at the end I didn’t understand why and I sat there with teary eyes lmao.
"it's okay nick my wife is pregnant and it only took 3inchs and 4seconds"😭
cant believe noones laughing at the funny comment
Does anyone else think that when kenjaku said his will that he meant the governments he talked to before the culling games
Yuji said he would eat anything and Choso said his brother would live inside of him in chapter 220 so most likely he actually ate all them all. Also in Chapter 144 Choso infront of the warehouse where his brother are he says he'll come back a little later for them so he probably took them after leaving Tengen to go back to the other and would've been able to feed them to his other brother Yuji to make him stronger
The editor's comment at 6:35 has me rolling on the floor 😂😂😂.
Personally I like the theory that Yuji's cursed technique is inheriting ALL cursed techniques Kenjaku had when Yuji was created.
Thats dumb
@@itsmeazrael6133 In JJK there is a dude making animals and summons out of hand puppets, a guy whose power is literally whatever he finds funny and a dude whose power is a courtroom.
Of course I expect ridiculous and BS stuff from the author
A talking brain took backshots just so the MC could get the most op ability.?
Sounds pretty JJK
@@ColdNorth0628 yep, would not even be the biggest BS in that manga.
@@Marcelofilho24 Suspension of disbelief for one thing doesn't mean suspension of disbelief for everything. Besides, while inheriting techniques is possible for SOME of them, and I can even accept that it is possible for all of them in some way, it just doesn't make sense from a storytelling standpoint, and in fact Yuji getting Sukuna's cursed technique would make much more sense.
it just so happens the infodump regarding the law in japan was padding because it was ultimately narrowed down to the domain < unknown > rule, gege is a hack but sunken cost fallacy keeps me hooked lmao
Since the animated fight of yuji v Mahitos recently, it's my headcanon that Yujis cursed technique is soul manipulation exactly the same as Mahitos. Between Mahitos line of "we are the same" and the fact that Yuji is completely immune to idle transfiguration, it seems like the most likely answer.
He's only "immune" because Mahito doesn't want to touch Sukuna and get his ass kicked lol
@@regeneration6921 Mahito also stated that Yuji is aware of the shape of his own soul for that same reason though didn't he?
@trashseatgaming3364 That is true. I do like the theory of soul manipulation but for the sake of argument, Mahito not being able to touch him is because of Sukuna, not because he is immune. I've had the theory that since Yuji had landed so many blackflashes throughout the series(which in the Manga are stated to bring you closer to cursed energy), maybe Yuji got closer to his soul using all the knowledge he had obtained. Soul Manipulation is nonetheless still a pretty solid theory. Just wanted to say that he ain't immune to Idle Transfiguration yknow?
@@trashseatgaming3364mahito said that yuji is unconsciously aware of it because he has two within himaelf.
True , I know that because his new hands show that he can change his body to whatever he wants to damage sukuna
That power would make his absolutely broken , especially with yujis strength
I really love your content bro! Wish you had a straight jjk page 🙌🏾
So are y’all just forgetting the body swap that yuji did with Kusakabe? Why would Gege show that and not expand on it?
So more then likely Yuji has found a way to manipulate his soul using the book that Yuki gave Choso and found a way to make his body stronger using the other death paintings.
@@SmokeD.hashira20makes sense, I wonder if that's his cursed technique or if it's just something you can do if you're a vessel that's aware of your soul. Like maybe it's not a cursed technique but just like how he could host sukuna he can host the death paintings but unlike sukuna he can manifest their abilities without losing control of his body. That'd be insane because he'd have potentially multiple cursed techniques and still might manifest his own/sukuna's.
@@SmokeD.hashira20bet you're the most right out of anyone in this comment section
"GASPING WHEN IT CAME OUT AND PUTTING IT BACK IN" I had to pause the video man...
😂😂😂
6:35 Nick, whoever your editor is... Give him a raise😂
Salute to you sir! I like the technicalitiies of jjk and hxh as well, gives depth on the story and its world.
6:33 editor had me dying! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
THANK YOU NICK!!! I was wondering why no one else noticed this
the talks are so much fun, all the characters react in great ways
Congratulations Mr Editor
Also Ken-waifu's fight was a good pallet cleansing
If gege sees this then he would be probably surprised how much jjk fans just can link up everything be used for ideas to continue the manga.
As great as this video was, the highlight for me was the goodest bois taking a nap in the bottom left corner of the screen.
0:16 as a Baki fan I enjoy exposition so much I’d watch and entire anime about it
God I love this channel. Anytime something I don't get about jjk this dude puts it into simple terms ... Also doing dishes rn and nicks voice makes it less boring
Coolest imo would be if Yuji could change his gravity of his attacks so his attacks would be heavy n strong af
"kenjaku gasping when it came out and putting it back in" has me in tears.
I have a theory of Yuji having the Cursed technique of Gluttony
I think Yuji got blood manipulation by eating his 6 death womb brothers remaining.
Haha,the most congratulations goes forward to NC jr.😊😊
wait that literally makes so much sense how did we not think of this until now 😭
25:00 Gege must have some Oda in his blood with all this cooking he’s doing
19:35 gotta love the dog in the backround
Love thee JJk content pls don't stop 😅❤
So quick clarification on gravity on power, mass is constant with regard to gravity so adding or removing gravity shouldn't change the force of a blow unless it changes speed. Because of F=ma.
Nobody gonna talk about how well trained the dog is? Dude just chilling in the cut for almost the entire video 🫡
i think it's flame he just don't know it yet it's why there was a cut why Sukuna never uses open it's yuji not his then he seems to have good understanding of other CT more than them like ten shadow it's why he knows how to use open btw anyone can learn blood sukuna ues it show this
So this aged poorly, bro got dismantle and blood manipulation and mostly dismantle
Didn't Yuji eat his 6 fetus siblings? That's how he got the abilities.
Yuji's Cursed Technique is eating.
14:11 we also that yuji is capable of hitting the soul as well plus his knowledge from yuki journal
lol sounds like you're trying to smash the 2 J's into 1 "jejekay" hehe good video though bro I hope Mappa will be able to finish it
Nah I ain't skipping past that, CONGRATULATIONS NICK!!!! WELCOME TO THE DADS OF ANIME🙌🏾💜
Kenjaku did use idle transfiguration to begin the culling games i thought?
Thank you for explaining and making sense of it all😅 I love the idea of Yuji with blood manipulation and gravity
Makes sense because right after he seems to just stand there while the domain comes up.
❗️You should add DBS Manga content if a new dragon ball super arc comes out after they finish doing the DBS Super Hero’s Adaptation. Black Frieza, True Ultra Instinct Goku, Ultra Ego Vegeta,Beast Gohan, Broly, They have the most story potential with all of these different power houses coexisting ON TOP of still unexplored universes! I’m just saying I think the new arc will be one of the best we’ve ever seen and I’d love to watch it be talked about on your page!
Statute!! Drove me crazy saying statue of limitations so many times so fast
Keep up the awesome work and videos Nick love the video
God that makes so much sense even the flipping dream sequence thing choso had with his brothers and yuji my god it’s been slapping us in the face since Shibuya
Kenjaku gasping as it came out it came out and he put it back in???😂😂😂 bruh you wild AS FUCK 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
BRO DOES NOT READ THE SAME STORY AS WE DO!!!!!!!!!
Hey Nick, dont beat yourself up! This video is an amazing accomplishment. You not only sat through the most Law and Order part of the chapter, you understood it! And its about Japan, not here.
*dun dun*
I love your ideas bro keep it up
It upsets me a little that no one’s used the specific wordplay of “Jujump-you kaisen” unless they have and I haven’t seen it
