Riko’s death is probably a big catalyst in changing Geto. In the first episode of this ark he talked about how Jujutsu was meant to protect the weak, but this might signify to him that the weak will all ultimately die and only the strong can maintain anything
more like the fact that the weak people (non-sorcerers) they're meant to protect will be the same ones cheering on her death and persecuting other sorcerers out of ignorance. That, along with curse consumption, isolation and the ass-whooping he gets from Toji are the things that break him
Not really about the part of the weak dying anyway... It's more like how the weak are not people worth protecting. They will cheer on other weak and sorcerers dying for their own sake. Both Geto and Gojo start hating the jujutsu society system, in different ways for different reasons. Gojo hates the false moralism and the old conservatives and some other things. Geto hates how the system works as whole, as how dozens of sorcerers constantly die to protect people without any kind of praise or remorse. They are recognized when they are useful, but when they die, they are just another statistic. Geto becomes a villain after a *succession* of breakdowns, that made him thinking that just killing every human (the ones who creates curses) is just worthy to stop endless death and objectification of sorceres and people
No your wrong. SPOILERS: Remember during his shower scene, that's when he realized his belief of saving the weak is flawed. He realized that the weak are not harmless. He was contemplating with himself as to why he would continue the cycle of "Exorcise, consume" for those "monkeys"
The reason why people who originally liked Toji like him is not because he is a good person. Originally, he was an assassin, and his personality was that of a bastard. But I like his coolness as a villain, his meticulous planning, his relentless execution, his fighting style and his good looks.
@@Zain94336basically same logic why some girls fanboy Ted bundy. If toji was like the bag guy he’d just be hated. But because he’s good looking with a hint of charisma he’s beloved even tho he kicks into action the downfall of society.

Heavenly Restriction or “Heavenly Pact” gives a newborn sorcerer a power but it takes something from the baby as well in exchange. It's like a binding vow but the baby does not consent with the Heavenly restriction that will be made upon their body. We have three sorcerers with this in the entire series, even in the manga, Maki Zen’in & Mechamaru & Toji Zen’in. Toji's Heavenly restriction removed his body's cursed energy in exchange for superhuman strength, speed, and heightened senses. His Heavenly restriction is similar to Maki's but Maki still has cursed energy. Maki just has less Cursed Energy than even the average non-sorcerer, Unlike Toji who has 0% Cursed Energy. Mechamaru's Heavenly restriction is the opposite, he has abnormal amounts of Cursed Energy in exchange for a frail, weak, sickly body.
Thanks. for this comment. Heavenlly restriction and binding vow is clearly misunderstood by most of the community. It is very upsetting when poorly explain. Happy to have them having the right info
Shoko is super valuable to the jujutsu high because reversed curse technique is 2nd nature to her, so she’s hardly ever cleared for missions like this since they don’t want to lose her
At this point shes the only one capable of healing other than we know of, and will be for 10 more years until yuta shows up, so yeah they have to keep her safe
@@Ggez253I think you misread that chapter the “he only needs to see it once” was in reference to sukuna using rct to replenish his burnt out technique after seeing gojo do it
It wasn't shown properly because of the angle, but Toji stabbed Gojo in the head at the end. However, he didn't use the Spear of Heaven for that one hit.
@@zerosama5743i think it wasn't so much as to censor it but rather not make ir so clear that he should be dead. It gives more credibility to what happens next, so I kinda liked that choice of not showing it clearly.
Put your hatred for Toji aside for a minute and think about this. Throughout the last 2-3 episodes Gojo has been very cocky and looked down on ordinary humans. At one point he even mocks Q (correction: Star religious group), and says they're just a bunch of losers with no curse energy so they should be completely ignored. So it is perfect poetic justice for Toji, a man with no curse energy to come and absolutely humble him and teach him a lesson he will never forget.
Toji still more of an asshole than gojo ever will. He's out here killing kids for money and even sold his son to the same abusive clan he grew up in. He deserves more hate than gojo lmao. The real poetic justice will be what happens next episode.
I do absolutely love seeing Gojo take the L, and it's super impressive, well planned, and feels deserved... but also people simp over this arrogant Toji way too much for beating up/killing a bunch of kids Obviously Gojo (and Geto) still has the strength of an adult, but Toji just shot a middle schooler and maimed 1 (boutta be 2) high schooler as a grown ass man and acted cocky about it T-T
Geto's character arc is super underrated imo, he's literally one of the nicest person in the whole Jujutsu Tech before he turned insane. It really shows what happens when someone with a strong ideology gets their world turned upside down. Toji, and the death of Riko are the start there will be many more for Geto.
I don’t read the manga but I love Toji so far as a character. And one the most important reason is he’s voiced by the one and only Takehito Koyasu (Dio Va)
Same he's just awful when you think about it but as a character is hard to hate just like that, and yeah Takehito Koyasu make it even better although I saw that a lot of people didn't like it because it sounds too much like a villain or wathever but I think Takehito's voice suit him really well
The most insane part I think is that Mappa decided to play the ending theme song to fool us into thinking that would be the end of the episode. Then bam afterwards plays it a second time after our trauma like nothing happened.
@@tiktaco4391 I was asking why he took joy in seeing most people’s favorite character getting destroyed, that’s all. Of course he would like the actual episode. JJK is incredible
He’s my favourite character but He IS OP he’s literally one of the strongest characters in the whole manga…he doesn’t beat everyone because of pure skill his heavenly pact gives him beyond abnormal physical powers and all his senses are heightened 10 fold and he’s practically undetectable because he’s got 0 cursed energy he’s whole character design is that he’s the ultimate killing machine….he was born to kill sorcerers
If you listen carefully and look at Gojo's eyes, right before he says he never wants to babysit again he turned his powers off most likely so he could rest thinking he was safe within the barrier of JJK High School
Gege is so sick for giving us a beach episode and then having Gojo get stabbed repeatedly, Riko get shot and Geto getting traumatized. Went from 0-100 in literal minutes. Toji is built different
"Have we met before?" Even though it was only for an instant when he was a child, Gojo still partially remembered Toji from that moment he noticed Toji watching him.
Toji is the reason Gojo and Geto became who they are Man literally transformed them and the JJK world, Pure GOAT energy For those who hate him is understandable, but Gojo respects one guy and that is TOJI spoiler He even wore Toji clothes when he went to fight Sukuna
Toji used Inverted Spear of Heaven, a curse tool that stops any curse technique that it touches. That is how he was able to bypass Gojo's infinity. Gojo made a huge mistake of being too reliant on his Infinity and Toji used that mindset to his advantage
Chronology : Hidden Inventory/Premature Death -> Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School(Jujutsu Kaisen 0) -> Jujutsu Kaisen Gege Akutami, pronounce Gay-gay Ah-koo-tah-me, wrote Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School(Jujutsu Kaisen 0) first, from April 2017 to July, then renamed it “Jujutsu Kaisen 0” after the release of Jujutsu Kaisen because Jujutsu Kaisen is Jujutsu Kaisen 1(Volume 1). Wrote Jujutsu Kaisen in Shonen Jump in March 2018 to present. Hidden Inventory/Premature Death were written from July 2019 to October.
I think this arc is doing a great job at preparing the audience for how brutal the Shibuya Incident arc will be, and the more important fights throughout the series.
I really like the subtle detail they put in on Gojo's eye, like it glows when he's using it and it doesn't when he's not using it. I dont know if they did on S1 but I just noticed it in this episode. It’s a real cool aesthetic
I don't think we've ever seen his eyes not glowing on S1 and I assume this is why and that the blindfold is so that people can't see when he's not using it (though that begs the question how is he able to see through the blindfold).
Present day Gojo is waay stronger than he was here. He doesn't have to put effort into keeping his infinity up anymore because he basically has unlimited cursed energy after he was 'awakened'. During this Arc it takes a lot of energy for him to use his techniques which is why he drops it when he thinks he's safe.
Toji is a genius, he knew everything he had to do to be able to defeat Gojo, stabbing him from the back with no cursed energy weapon right when Gojo let his guard down, making him believe that he only got stabbed because he let his guard down and didn't have the infinity barrier by saying "I knew you wouldn't release your technique until the very end", forcing Gojo to go full defensive mode with the infinity barrirer in the end because he knew that Gojo had insane intuition and the six eyes, so he would notice Toji's presence and would also notice that blade with cursed energy, but that's what Toji wanted, cause he had a way to deal with Gojo infinity barrier
"I don't want her to assimilate with Tengen" well, Toji Fushiguro heard you and came to deliver. And, yeah, seeing Gojo get absolutely BODIED like that is CRAZY. It's so unexpected, and Toji is such a beast. It's insane. Toji's just built different, y'know? About Geto, it really is very tragic that he became what we see later. I won't go into any details, of course, but it'll make sense. And this arc is what made Geto one of my absolute favourite characters in JJK, it's SO good (and devastating). And yes, you are correct, Sam, this arc is only 5 episodes. Then we'll have 3 weeks of break and then, on August 31st, the Shibuya Incident begins, which will last until the end of the season. About the 0 cursed energy thing: all humans, except for Maki and Toji, have cursed energy. What differs jujutsu sorcerers from regular humans is that sorcerers can control their CE and regular humans cannot. Maki and Toji, however, are heavenly restricted, which means that a binding vow was forced in them at birth, like Kokichi Muta (Mechamaru). In Maki and Toji's case, they have 0 cursed energy, which makes their bodies much more capable than regular humans' bodies. You might be thinking "well, Maki is clearly not the same as Toji", and you're right, and we'll get to it. Not now, though
Gojo fans ain't getting no reality check fam we are literally about to be fed a delicious meal next week with the greatest comeback of all time in anime. Toji blew up a 3-1 lead unfortunately
I love how you think immediately about Shoko when Gojo was injured, thank you to remember she can do that! I love when people appreciate and know about her technique! Amazing reaction girls as always ❤
@Souchi-ito gojo did fail to protect riko but in the grand scheme of things, it didn't matter since there was another star plasma vessel. Toji did still get bodied though
Toji was so important to JJK for 2 main reasons - He was the reason Gojo got humbled .... if he remained this cocky during the current events of JJK, he could have been a tyrant - He was the catalyst that made Geto change his philosophies and realize than only the strong can survive, and eventually becomes a villain
Toji has a heavenly pact just like Maki's, and both of them mention they need to get their edge so they can battle better, besides both of them being Zenin!
I think you guys missed it but Toji has a heavenly pact that in exchange of not having any cursed energy he gets superhuman phisical abilites, and if you remember Maki has the same thing but she's waaaaaaaayyy weaker than Toji, that's why she was called a failure because without cursed energy she's useless against curses therefore both Toji and Maki need to use cursed tools to fight curses.
@@user-gu3hu3ls6l I didn't know that but that actually makes sense, although i'm very surprised that Toji was considered a failure because man yeah he needs the curse tools but i'm pretty sure that he could take on very strong curses by himself no problem
@@bolt2134 Tbh after toji grew up he was actually respected by the head of the clan, the only reason toji wasn't chosen as the next head instead of naobito is because without a cursed tool he is useless against curses.
yeah 20:42 i agree & i feel like geto lost his mind or something must to happened that made him snap thinking both Gojo & riko died so maybe that's what pushed him over the edge even more bc with that extreme nice personality sometimes people can become extremely evil if not checking in on their mental health y'know. great reaction ladies!
I dont understand people who start to hate toji this episode, since ep 1 it was clear he was here to kill riko since its his job and when he does yall are surprised? What did you expect him to do? Have a change of heart like his some naruto villain?
There are plenty of villains/antagonists that fail in completing their job. In fact, most do. Hearing someone say they’ll do something is different to actually seeing it. Not to mention that in present day, we know gojo is alive and well, and that tengen’s barriers still exist. Based on the stakes established, it would be expected that fushiguro wouldn’t be able to successfully carry out his mission. You’re only saying this because you know what happens
This is Daddy Fushiguro, guys! He & Maki both are Zenin failures since Toji absolutely don't has any Cursed energy at all but Maki has it just a tiny amount, nether they have any kind of Cursed techniques. They're almost same as regular humans but with more physical strength. And still they are able to keep up with the strong sorcerers
Lets go toji fushigoro!!!! This is why this show is great.. We see the bad side and good side each gets Ws!!! JJK goated for this!!!!!!! This why HxH so good as well..
I’m glad now anime onlys can suffer with manga readers now so we’re not all alone 🥲 yeah Riko’s death breaks my heart every goddamn time. And Toji really all about that bag because he listened to that ENTIRE monologue and still decided to kill her. And what’s so crazy too is that the main timeline you don’t really get any idea of who Megumi’s father is other than that he’s a deadbeat dad until this arc where he literally reshapes the Jujutsu world (which you’ll find out more of how later but you could probably put the pieces together but one them is definitely Geto’s slowly turning into evil) like goddamn THAT’S Megumi’s daddy. Now next episode will be peak writing and more than likely animation and that coupled with this episode is twin peak basically (not a reference to the show just the implication of being together). Awesome stuff as always can’t wait for everyone’s hearts to be broken even more lol
Poor sweet Riko…the moment she realised that she wants to live and continue to be with everyone, she dies. Her death was one of the most heartbreaking experiences I had. Her death had major impact on Gojo and Geto going forward.
Love the directorial choices. The happy song when they were at the beach but abruptly cut when they showed the episode title, leaving us confused and kinda shock...which best describes the content of the episode itself. Happiness only to be brutally snatched away in an instant. Welp donwhill from here. Geto's turning point. Imagine seeing a girl you're supposed to protect die in front of you and hearing your best friend get killed by this guy all at the same time 🥲 poor Geto. Next ep is gonna be crazy.
¡¡Hey girls, as always nice reaction!! This mini arc is very important (especially Riko's fucked up death 😭+ Toji's existence) because is the turning point for GOJO, GETO and THE SORCERY WORLD. A lot of stuff will be explain nevertheless you'll have to put every single minor details together from S1 and JJK0 to make sense of it. JJK world is not beautiful and fair (Nanami said that Jujutsu Sorcerers are shit, and most of the characters are victims of that world). FROM HERE ON OUT THERE IS NO PLOT ARMOR FOR ANY CHARACTER...BE READY.
😂😂😂This is the best episode to watch people react to! Between Gojo getting bodied and Riko's sudden death lol Toji will forever remain the GOAT. The situation was tragic, but a necessary evil for Gojo to obtain enlightenment - both of his CT and his ideology of those weaker than him. Because of Toji and the cult, Geto was (unfortunately) pushed to the brink of his sanity. These events kickstarted Gojo's passion to reform Jujutsu society and changed his views towards those weaker than him. I love Toji's character for many reasons to be explained in the future, but he easily earned my respect with these feats, alone.
if it weren't for toji, gojo would've remained the same and wouldn't have jjk runnin (a spoiler i guess) gojo learned the reverse cursed technique and hollow purple because of toji. bro wouldn't have been the strongest if gojo wasn't humbled by him
I love Toji bcs he doesn’t need any Cursed energy. Just Physically gifted through the Heavenly restrictions and that alone is cool. We need a standalone story about him
i feel like gojo at this point has never killed anyone, when he said "i failed, i thought i could do it this time" i think he could do the cursed reversal Red i just dont think he ever use it cause it could kill someone. Cause in season one he was gonna kill coatrack dude straight up, a lesson toji probably taught him lol
I meaannnn, Toji stabbed Gojo in the head, so pretty sure Toji actually killed him and plot armor will save him later lol (idk how though and I don't want manga readers to tell me in the comments)
Rikos death was one of the biggest reason for geto becoming what he is in JJK Zero not the curses he ate, he was traumatised, he conviced himself that he was too weak to protect her even tho it wasn't really true, it was just that the opponent was too strong (Toji). =========== Spoilers ============== And after when gojo defeates toji he was regretful and felt pathetic. Her death was the turning point for getos ideology, he still was skeptical before but after her death he was sure, he was to weak, to soft, and began to belive "monkeys" shouldn't exist. But he never broke his principales, he always prioritised his friends and family before himself, he was undeed a better person that gojo ======= ok ==================
If there was a guy that can use Flying Raijin like Minato from Naruto to protect Rico Amanai Unfortunately it didn't happen because it is a plot. Rest in peace Rico, maybe you will get what you wanted in another life
Do you remember that Chainsaw Man episode where Makima was shot in the head and she just said sike and she was back? Well, Gojo's built like that. Just give him some Tylenol and he'll be back up and running.
You can see Toji's mimics on Maki's face or other way around. Especially when Maki was fighting that light blue haired girl, Miwa. Also they both don't like being called Zen'in.
well I recall that almost all of the Zen'in clan members makes those kind of crazed face when they are in battle, I recall that Naobito, Naoya and Megumi also goes frenzied smile when they're battling or excited.
Remember in the movie when Gojo beat the black guy with the whip that could got through his infinity to the point some people thought it was racially motivated? And now you see what happened the last time someone managed to go through his infinity? You know he wouldn't let anybody who did that get off easy.
Honestly I think toji is cooler. He can’t do cursed technique or domain expansion but found a way to beat the strongest most naturally talented sorcerer with strategy. You have to respect that
OK i have a question, do people with enough curse energy to see curses on a daily basis are considered curse users? Because Riko and the Maid can see Curses and Geto called Maki "a Monkey" like normal people because she couldn't.
basically everyone has cursed energy (except toji, maki has some but not enough to be a sorcerer). If you don't have enough cursed energy to see curses Adult Geto would consider you a monkey
It's not sure! He could've called Maki a Monke because she is like Toji and he hates him, if i remember well Toji refered to himself as a monke in front of Geto. He wants a world for Jujutsu sorcerer, and Gojo pointed out in the movie that he knew that Geto wouldn't kill the kids maybe he saw her as a sorcerer too but hate her regardless because of Toji
Two association in this event. Group Q - the group of sorcerers wants to take over jujutsu worlds by having tengen. Star religious group - non sorcerers that worship tengen that dont want to merge with star plasma vessel believing thats impurity. Thats why they hire people to kill SPV. I believe these things are not mention in this episodes.
It was mentioned by Yaga in episode 1, and Q were disbanded right after geto and gojo wiped the floor with their 2 top guys as it was said in episode 2, so idk why they thought Q kidnapped kuroi when she herself said it was by non-sorcerers of the star religious group which is why she was ashamed of being captured xD
Toji showed up and said "no" to the happy ending.
The sad part is that Riko wasn't going to merge with Lord Tengen

spoiler.
The non-JUJUTSU applauded as Gojo carried Riko's corpse. That's the boundary.
Riko's death doesn't affect him that much but the main reason was Haibara's death. He was like geto's disciple and he died protecting non-socceror.

"Have we met before?" Even though it was only for an instant when he was a child, Gojo still partially remembered Toji from that moment he noticed Toji watching him.
Bro, Toji walked in like he was taking over Geto shift LOL, “you’re free to go now”. That shit was funny
Toji is the reason Gojo and Geto became who they are
Man literally transformed them and the JJK world, Pure GOAT energy
For those who hate him is understandable, but Gojo respects one guy and that is TOJI
spoiler
He even wore Toji clothes when he went to fight Sukuna
Toji is the GOAT.
Spoiler
I´m glad Maki is basically a reincarnation of Toji now, i can´t wait to see her Itachi Uchiha the whole Zenin clan
Wasnt Toji
Spoiler
the one keeping the zenin clan in check even tho he has 0 curse energy?
I've catch up with the manga, but why u feel the need to tell he wears Toji fit in this comment section tho
THAT IS AN INSANE SPOILER
Cringe spoiler, lmao loser.
Toji used Inverted Spear of Heaven, a curse tool that stops any curse technique that it touches. That is how he was able to bypass Gojo's infinity.
Gojo made a huge mistake of being too reliant on his Infinity and Toji used that mindset to his advantage
Chronology :
Hidden Inventory/Premature Death -> Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School(Jujutsu Kaisen 0) -> Jujutsu Kaisen
Gege Akutami, pronounce Gay-gay Ah-koo-tah-me, wrote Tokyo Metropolitan Curse Technical School(Jujutsu Kaisen 0) first, from April 2017 to July, then renamed it “Jujutsu Kaisen 0” after the release of Jujutsu Kaisen because Jujutsu Kaisen is Jujutsu Kaisen 1(Volume 1). Wrote Jujutsu Kaisen in Shonen Jump in March 2018 to present. Hidden Inventory/Premature Death were written from July 2019 to October.
gay gay💀
Toji just came to the verse and told the strongest they ain't allat 😭💯
Laughed so hard at "they're having a handsome-off". Too accurate
I think this arc is doing a great job at preparing the audience for how brutal the Shibuya Incident arc will be, and the more important fights throughout the series.
Nanami is in the opening guys!.
They were overlooking the poor man🤣😂
I really like the subtle detail they put in on Gojo's eye, like it glows when he's using it and it doesn't when he's not using it. I dont know if they did on S1 but I just noticed it in this episode. It’s a real cool aesthetic
I don't think we've ever seen his eyes not glowing on S1 and I assume this is why and that the blindfold is so that people can't see when he's not using it (though that begs the question how is he able to see through the blindfold).
MANGA SPOILER
I think the reason that his eyes are always glowing as an adult is because he’s always got his infinity up unlike here.
@@Virgil_Hawkins Correct
@@Triatttin season 1 he had it active all the time, the reason he uses a blindfold is so he couldnt see with his six eyes
Present day Gojo is waay stronger than he was here. He doesn't have to put effort into keeping his infinity up anymore because he basically has unlimited cursed energy after he was 'awakened'.
During this Arc it takes a lot of energy for him to use his techniques which is why he drops it when he thinks he's safe.
Toji is a genius, he knew everything he had to do to be able to defeat Gojo, stabbing him from the back with no cursed energy weapon right when Gojo let his guard down, making him believe that he only got stabbed because he let his guard down and didn't have the infinity barrier by saying "I knew you wouldn't release your technique until the very end", forcing Gojo to go full defensive mode with the infinity barrirer in the end because he knew that Gojo had insane intuition and the six eyes, so he would notice Toji's presence and would also notice that blade with cursed energy, but that's what Toji wanted, cause he had a way to deal with Gojo infinity barrier
Toji was brutal bro
Moral Kombat shit
Man was cast out of his own clan cause he had 0 curse energy but is still stronger than all of them
@@ibrahimsurti4922
He actually left himself, he was respected by naobito and was his rival in becoming the head of the clan.
@@ibrahimsurti4922The higher ups of the Zen'in respected him and some even idolized him, but he was still mistreated due to his Cursed Energy.
"I don't want her to assimilate with Tengen" well, Toji Fushiguro heard you and came to deliver.
And, yeah, seeing Gojo get absolutely BODIED like that is CRAZY. It's so unexpected, and Toji is such a beast. It's insane. Toji's just built different, y'know?
About Geto, it really is very tragic that he became what we see later. I won't go into any details, of course, but it'll make sense. And this arc is what made Geto one of my absolute favourite characters in JJK, it's SO good (and devastating).
And yes, you are correct, Sam, this arc is only 5 episodes. Then we'll have 3 weeks of break and then, on August 31st, the Shibuya Incident begins, which will last until the end of the season.
About the 0 cursed energy thing: all humans, except for Maki and Toji, have cursed energy. What differs jujutsu sorcerers from regular humans is that sorcerers can control their CE and regular humans cannot. Maki and Toji, however, are heavenly restricted, which means that a binding vow was forced in them at birth, like Kokichi Muta (Mechamaru). In Maki and Toji's case, they have 0 cursed energy, which makes their bodies much more capable than regular humans' bodies. You might be thinking "well, Maki is clearly not the same as Toji", and you're right, and we'll get to it. Not now, though
18:19, amanai death scene always give me goosebumps.🗿
The PTSD to play the ending song for THAT scene. And then again at the ending. Like… “remember how she just got blasted in the middle of this song? “
Toji is just THAT guy and gave a reality check to the Gojo fans because Toji gets the job done!
Gojo fans ain't getting no reality check fam we are literally about to be fed a delicious meal next week with the greatest comeback of all time in anime. Toji blew up a 3-1 lead unfortunately
@@boboyo3140we will see Tojis Apple Logo
@@boboyo3140 This episode they did they saw Gojo like we never saw him.
nah, just letting toji fans have their moment because its gonna be ugly next ep 😂
No match for him who released his power
I love how you think immediately about Shoko when Gojo was injured, thank you to remember she can do that! I love when people appreciate and know about her technique! Amazing reaction girls as always ❤
Toji maybe a villain but yeah he is 6'2 muscular badass who bodied the strongest character in the story and got the job done. He is villain who won.
For 5 mins anyway and then gets easily bodied
@@whydoihavesubs6644no he still won. Gojo failed to protect Riko and Toji won by killing her. He finished his job whereas gojo failed.
@Souchi-ito gojo did fail to protect riko but in the grand scheme of things, it didn't matter since there was another star plasma vessel. Toji did still get bodied though
RIP Gojo, I wish to see more of him
Facts, he was taken way too soon.
RIP gone too soon 😢
Toji was so fvckin insane 🔥🔥🔥
I love how Toji the menace destroyed your little moment of happiness and gave you a good shock 😂
You take joy in other’s pain and sadness 😅
@@Okkotsu86275 only in anime reactions and nowhere else 😂
@@Joshua-oo1og Understandable🤣😅
Toji "piece em up" Fushiguro strikes again
Nobody Seems to Remember What happened to Geto at End of the Movie
Toji was so important to JJK for 2 main reasons
- He was the reason Gojo got humbled .... if he remained this cocky during the current events of JJK, he could have been a tyrant
- He was the catalyst that made Geto change his philosophies and realize than only the strong can survive, and eventually becomes a villain
@@johntaylor7354 i feel like He's more confident than straight up cocky, he alos changed his ideologies and became more helpful to non-sorcerers
@@johntaylor7354 Jogo is a curse
Toji has a heavenly pact just like Maki's, and both of them mention they need to get their edge so they can battle better, besides both of them being Zenin!
I love Toji just rewriting everything we know about who's the most powerful -sorcerer- combatant at this point. He straight up destroyed Gojo.
Shoko dont go on missions because her value is too important to be put at risk.
And because Shoko Ieiri literally can't fight.
@@WOCKHARDT-ry8zkwell to be honest, when you have Gojo and Geto on your team, there is no need for you to fight.
I think you guys missed it but Toji has a heavenly pact that in exchange of not having any cursed energy he gets superhuman phisical abilites, and if you remember Maki has the same thing but she's waaaaaaaayyy weaker than Toji, that's why she was called a failure because without cursed energy she's useless against curses therefore both Toji and Maki need to use cursed tools to fight curses.
Toji also called a failure in Zenin clan
@@user-gu3hu3ls6l I didn't know that but that actually makes sense, although i'm very surprised that Toji was considered a failure because man yeah he needs the curse tools but i'm pretty sure that he could take on very strong curses by himself no problem
@@bolt2134
Tbh after toji grew up he was actually respected by the head of the clan, the only reason toji wasn't chosen as the next head instead of naobito is because without a cursed tool he is useless against curses.
@@knightofthelake8112 Although it sucks for Toji i can't deny that it makes sense
Toji have 0 of cursed energy , maki have a little few but in theory toji is the only human of have 0 of cursed energy
Whats great about Toji is he’s legit just an evil bum💀. No attempt at drawing sympathy for him he’s just a bum that kicks ass
we have seen the curse Toji uses before...Geto uses it to pull out Playful Cloud against Yuta in JJK 0
yeah 20:42 i agree & i feel like geto lost his mind or something must to happened that made him snap thinking both Gojo & riko died so maybe that's what pushed him over the edge even more bc with that extreme nice personality sometimes people can become extremely evil if not checking in on their mental health y'know. great reaction ladies!
I’m not a manga reader but this has to be the catalyst of what sets Geto off to a dark path
I dont understand people who start to hate toji this episode, since ep 1 it was clear he was here to kill riko since its his job and when he does yall are surprised? What did you expect him to do? Have a change of heart like his some naruto villain?
😂😂😂
There are plenty of villains/antagonists that fail in completing their job. In fact, most do.
Hearing someone say they’ll do something is different to actually seeing it. Not to mention that in present day, we know gojo is alive and well, and that tengen’s barriers still exist.
Based on the stakes established, it would be expected that fushiguro wouldn’t be able to successfully carry out his mission. You’re only saying this because you know what happens
Nah he didn’t bring back Yuuji to Shoko to revive him just to check his body kinda like a post mortem
Toji is the literal definition of:
"Oh I'm sorry… I didn't care."
This is Daddy Fushiguro, guys! He & Maki both are Zenin failures since Toji absolutely don't has any Cursed energy at all but Maki has it just a tiny amount, nether they have any kind of Cursed techniques. They're almost same as regular humans but with more physical strength. And still they are able to keep up with the strong sorcerers
Lets go toji fushigoro!!!! This is why this show is great.. We see the bad side and good side each gets Ws!!! JJK goated for this!!!!!!! This why HxH so good as well..
LOL! Morgan looked like she wanted to punch something after the episode ended
I’m glad now anime onlys can suffer with manga readers now so we’re not all alone 🥲 yeah Riko’s death breaks my heart every goddamn time. And Toji really all about that bag because he listened to that ENTIRE monologue and still decided to kill her. And what’s so crazy too is that the main timeline you don’t really get any idea of who Megumi’s father is other than that he’s a deadbeat dad until this arc where he literally reshapes the Jujutsu world (which you’ll find out more of how later but you could probably put the pieces together but one them is definitely Geto’s slowly turning into evil) like goddamn THAT’S Megumi’s daddy. Now next episode will be peak writing and more than likely animation and that coupled with this episode is twin peak basically (not a reference to the show just the implication of being together). Awesome stuff as always can’t wait for everyone’s hearts to be broken even more lol
Geto and Riko-chan: *having a heartfelt moment*
Toji: ............. So anyway I started blasting :D
Oh, You think this is painful, just wait for Shibiya arc.
Poor sweet Riko…the moment she realised that she wants to live and continue to be with everyone, she dies. Her death was one of the most heartbreaking experiences I had. Her death had major impact on Gojo and Geto going forward.
Love the directorial choices. The happy song when they were at the beach but abruptly cut when they showed the episode title, leaving us confused and kinda shock...which best describes the content of the episode itself. Happiness only to be brutally snatched away in an instant.
Welp donwhill from here. Geto's turning point. Imagine seeing a girl you're supposed to protect die in front of you and hearing your best friend get killed by this guy all at the same time 🥲 poor Geto. Next ep is gonna be crazy.
toji is literally batman
¡¡Hey girls, as always nice reaction!!
This mini arc is very important (especially Riko's fucked up death 😭+ Toji's existence) because is the turning point for GOJO, GETO and THE SORCERY WORLD. A lot of stuff will be explain nevertheless you'll have to put every single minor details together from S1 and JJK0 to make sense of it. JJK world is not beautiful and fair (Nanami said that Jujutsu Sorcerers are shit, and most of the characters are victims of that world). FROM HERE ON OUT THERE IS NO PLOT ARMOR FOR ANY CHARACTER...BE READY.
😂😂😂This is the best episode to watch people react to! Between Gojo getting bodied and Riko's sudden death lol Toji will forever remain the GOAT. The situation was tragic, but a necessary evil for Gojo to obtain enlightenment - both of his CT and his ideology of those weaker than him. Because of Toji and the cult, Geto was (unfortunately) pushed to the brink of his sanity. These events kickstarted Gojo's passion to reform Jujutsu society and changed his views towards those weaker than him. I love Toji's character for many reasons to be explained in the future, but he easily earned my respect with these feats, alone.
Toji literally got put on my top 5 anime characters
G.O.A.T 🔥
if it weren't for toji, gojo would've remained the same and wouldn't have jjk runnin
(a spoiler i guess)
gojo learned the reverse cursed technique and hollow purple because of toji. bro wouldn't have been the strongest if gojo wasn't humbled by him
Choko isn't fighting because she is 1 of only 3 ppl who have the reverse technique, meaning she's too valuable to be put on dangerous missions.
8:43 well- she doesnt, be careful of what ya wish for sobs
12:09 so true lol
19:19 and thats when you knew the season would be heavy-
Season 1: I hate Getou
Season 2 Part 1: Getou is alright. I hate Toji more.
Season 2 Part 2: Getou and Toji are alright. I hate ____ more.
😭
Me seeing them write Haibara name to remember him: 👀👀
Toji so dope bro didn't give a f about plot armour straight up nailed two strongest characters but then author remembered who is needed for plot.
I can’t wait for people to see Gojo go through real stuff later.
Toji the sorcerer killer is living up to his name.
I love Toji bcs he doesn’t need any Cursed energy. Just Physically gifted through the Heavenly restrictions and that alone is cool. We need a standalone story about him
Toji was the only reason I decided to watch jujutsu kaisen
i feel like gojo at this point has never killed anyone, when he said "i failed, i thought i could do it this time" i think he could do the cursed reversal Red i just dont think he ever use it cause it could kill someone. Cause in season one he was gonna kill coatrack dude straight up, a lesson toji probably taught him lol
I meaannnn, Toji stabbed Gojo in the head, so pretty sure Toji actually killed him and plot armor will save him later lol (idk how though and I don't want manga readers to tell me in the comments)
Also they didn't show but gojou was stabbed in the head in the last attack toji did ... They censored it
I SWEAR 5 MINUTES AGO I WAS THINKING ABOUT YOU GUYSSS HAHA, I was like “when will their reaction come?”, I guess I summoned you😭❤
Rikos death was one of the biggest reason for geto becoming what he is in JJK Zero not the curses he ate, he was traumatised, he conviced himself that he was too weak to protect her even tho it wasn't really true, it was just that the opponent was too strong (Toji).
=========== Spoilers ==============
And after when gojo defeates toji he was regretful and felt pathetic.
Her death was the turning point for getos ideology, he still was skeptical before but after her death he was sure, he was to weak, to soft, and began to belive "monkeys" shouldn't exist.
But he never broke his principales, he always prioritised his friends and family before himself, he was undeed a better person that gojo
======= ok ==================
Toji said f*ck your sad backstory
If there was a guy that can use Flying Raijin like Minato from Naruto to protect Rico Amanai Unfortunately it didn't happen because it is a plot. Rest in peace Rico, maybe you will get what you wanted in another life
knife negates curse techniques.. so it negated infinity around gojo. 👍
The worm from hunter hunter inspired the worm on Toji. True story
I’m surprised ppl don’t bring up the physical differences geto has between now and season 1
Do you remember that Chainsaw Man episode where Makima was shot in the head and she just said sike and she was back? Well, Gojo's built like that. Just give him some Tylenol and he'll be back up and running.
Toji still my favorite character till this day... also Gege's fav character too 😂
I was thinking this is the most depression filled episode but I remembered like 4 more scenes and got depressed alot more
0:01 " okay I'm ready I think" lol nobody was ready for this episode
You can see Toji's mimics on Maki's face or other way around. Especially when Maki was fighting that light blue haired girl, Miwa.
Also they both don't like being called Zen'in.
well I recall that almost all of the Zen'in clan members makes those kind of crazed face when they are in battle, I recall that Naobito, Naoya and Megumi also goes frenzied smile when they're battling or excited.
Toji: Fuck happy endings.
😂
Remember in the movie when Gojo beat the black guy with the whip that could got through his infinity to the point some people thought it was racially motivated? And now you see what happened the last time someone managed to go through his infinity? You know he wouldn't let anybody who did that get off easy.
Honestly I think toji is cooler. He can’t do cursed technique or domain expansion but found a way to beat the strongest most naturally talented sorcerer with strategy. You have to respect that
Gojo did indeed died and a professional killer would make sure there target is dead 100% like Toji
OK i have a question, do people with enough curse energy to see curses on a daily basis are considered curse users? Because Riko and the Maid can see Curses and Geto called Maki "a Monkey" like normal people because she couldn't.
Yes Curse Users/Sorcerers depending on who they're allied with.
basically everyone has cursed energy (except toji, maki has some but not enough to be a sorcerer). If you don't have enough cursed energy to see curses Adult Geto would consider you a monkey
@@guardiandeity6519
If you can't CONTROL cursed energy he calls you a monkey, he wants people to master its use
It's not sure! He could've called Maki a Monke because she is like Toji and he hates him, if i remember well Toji refered to himself as a monke in front of Geto. He wants a world for Jujutsu sorcerer, and Gojo pointed out in the movie that he knew that Geto wouldn't kill the kids maybe he saw her as a sorcerer too but hate her regardless because of Toji
Gojo didn’t take yuji to shoko so she would bring him back to life lol she was basically was just gone dissect him being the vessel of sukuna and all
toji is badass character man
and to make this even more...weird? is Toji's only doing this for money (that he'll gamble and lost)
Yes he was addicted to gambling, whatever money he gets is gone in gambling in ni time, talk about waste 😅
love how they scream for dead lil girl Toji best character
Two association in this event.
Group Q - the group of sorcerers wants to take over jujutsu worlds by having tengen.
Star religious group - non sorcerers that worship tengen that dont want to merge with star plasma vessel believing thats impurity. Thats why they hire people to kill SPV.
I believe these things are not mention in this episodes.
It was mentioned by Yaga in episode 1, and Q were disbanded right after geto and gojo wiped the floor with their 2 top guys as it was said in episode 2, so idk why they thought Q kidnapped kuroi when she herself said it was by non-sorcerers of the star religious group which is why she was ashamed of being captured xD
Gojo is a mary sue and I love that Toji beat his ass.
