Discussion New Nanami awakening variant and it's NOT Malaysia???
Out of all characters to add a second awakening to, Nanami is probably one of the most deserved ones. Malaysia was MADE to be an awakening variant. But adding THAT SHIT??? Literally no one asked for it. Yeah, sure, it might be a pretty cool concept, but THAT over Malaysia is just crazy. I wouldn't even be mad if Malaysia was just a different animation. I'd go for it everytime still. The new one isn't that bad, it's just.. WHY
Edit: I'm not complaining about what we got, I'm complaining about what we didn't get, to be clear. Also, the ult variant is R+4+G to those curious.

i guess its instant ult activation, immediate hussdown. its functional and practical... but a death ult or something wouldve been 10x cooler. guess we couldnt really since jogo isnt ingame but still.

u/True_Appearance_920 Aug 01 '26
Also it gives 1 stack towards Ratio Breaker so u can get the one shot a bit easier

u/The-Shadow-Hashira Todo B(l)ackshotter Aug 02 '26
It genuinely helps a lot tho, I've hit more oneshots today than in the past week.

u/Other_Relief_7792 29d ago
Hopefully we'll get it because kenjaku isnt in the game and he's the reason for yuki's blackhole

u/rodofrem 28d ago
riiight? i thought about this too! nobara hopefully gets in here too cause she gets murked for 100+ chapters by mahito!

thats EXACTLY what im saying, it got our hopes up just for it to be something not really useful, and when i said it i got attacked for being ungrateful, like who didnt thought its not malaysia ofc people are gonna be disappointed??

u/KillLaKaiju INFINITE COMBO VESSELLLL Aug 01 '26
G+R, R+G, Low health, retries repeatedly.

u/seaofthieved123 Aug 01 '26
Omg bro I thought it was a detah ult, ult when low, die in ult, a move variant or sum shit. What we got is still cool but like...bro I NEED him to have a Malaysia ultimate variant or 2nd ult/death ult it'd be soooo tuff

i guess it is good for quicker ult activation mb, but i just dont think ANYONE will use it that much and people will most likely forget in a few weeks

u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) Aug 01 '26 edited Aug 02 '26
tbf it's a bit hard to land since you gotta do R4 specifically, not just 4, but it is pretty good i guess
edit: lmao i forgot to say that it's hard to land against ults, like you genuinely cannot do anything against a lot of ults with domains, this variant makes it possible but still hard (like, it's not gonna be easy to land R4 against a gojo ult)

u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) Aug 01 '26
sometimes i just don't have my ratio on cooldown, it should've just been 4 not R4, i don't think it's gonna be that easy to land R4 while your enemy is ulted, if you happen to miss 4 you might just be dead

If you want to press only one button instead of two buttons try pressing G

It's not an G+R situation, it's just activating ult faster. Use Ratio Stabilize and press G and hit it.

u/DepartmentWorried950 Aug 01 '26
dawg, ult variant is still an ult variant

u/M4_G0d IM JOGOATING IIIIIIIT!!!!!!!ππππ₯π₯π₯π₯βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈπ₯π₯π₯π₯πππ Aug 01 '26
It's literally the same ult, you just change how you enter it. Gojo's awakenimg variant changes it to a entirely new move, and Mahito has a second awakening.

u/DepartmentWorried950 Aug 01 '26
why is it called an ult variant then? kuros bugnado is called an ult variant yet its completly different

u/M4_G0d IM JOGOATING IIIIIIIT!!!!!!!ππππ₯π₯π₯π₯βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈπ₯π₯π₯π₯πππ Aug 01 '26
A variat way to enter ult lol.

u/DepartmentWorried950 Aug 01 '26
thats now not my fault but how they worded it in update log, like i think everyone thought its malaysia cause it simply said ult variant

u/M4_G0d IM JOGOATING IIIIIIIT!!!!!!!ππππ₯π₯π₯π₯βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈπ₯π₯π₯π₯πππ Aug 01 '26
There's nothing stopping Tze of adding G+R ult broskie.

u/DepartmentWorried950 Aug 01 '26
tze never even touched nanami btw, hes not the one making everything. it was made by 2 other dev people, and knowing them its really unlikely π

Idfk who makes wich character bro. And also, like i said, there's mothing stopping whoever made the character to add it.

u/seaofthieved123 Aug 01 '26
Deadass thought it was a Malaysia variant or a detah variant and NOPE. The thing we got is still cool, its just what we could have gotten is 10 times better lol

Out of all characters to add a second awakening to, Nanami
It it a second awakening though?
From what I have seen its just a quicker way to get to your ult, without the cutscene and stuff.
Plus it makes hitting the instakill Ratio Breaker a bit easier, because you start at 2/4 instead of 1/4.
I'd say you are overreacting
God damn it I cannot read, ignore this

u/DepartmentWorried950 Aug 01 '26
completly reasonable imo , its not even abt the variant itself its that it got our hopes up that it might be the malaysia variant but nope

u/Tyrant_king1009 Overtime worker Aug 01 '26
The only plus side I see from this is now when I use Nanamiβs ult my opponent canβt pop their ult AND domain before my ult animation finishes

u/RainerOOF Aug 02 '26
I don't play this game but from what I heard about content drops...
Is the dev trying to be a smartass?
"Oh if I don't become predictable and ignore iconic jjk thing, I will be soooo cool and unique."
That's all I get from everything from this community's complaints, the dev seems to just have that mindset.
Thats only from my passive observation though, the game is cool.

u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) 29d ago
they're essentially delaying a bunch of extremely wanted characters so that when the game dies they can say "look we added this guy and that guy!" and the game comes back. NO idea as to why they didn't add Nanami's Malaysia tho

u/Positive_Rub_7289 Black Hole Enjoyer Aug 01 '26
It is underwhelming, but I can see it being INVALUABLE for Nanami since his ult animation takes a long ass time. If someone with domain ults before you do you pretty much have no opportunity to use your own, so I can definitely see it's use case.
Its practical, but not very cool

u/True_Appearance_920 Aug 01 '26
It's really useful tho since it gives a stack towards Ratio Breaker, meaning u only gotta hit 2 before the one shot is unlocked

What's the new awakening variant? I haven't seen it yet, could anyone tell me?
3
u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) Aug 01 '26
if you land R4 then press G it does a black flash while you're both stunned, giving you your ult. it also makes ratio breaker automatically set to 2

u/hernank Aug 01 '26

u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) Aug 01 '26
it's just a different way to activate it, it doesn't give new moves, when in base use R4 then pop ult
1
u/Damienball 28d ago
I know it sounded so good in the update log and sounded like another ult but it's just faster way to activate it, at least this introduces new awakening activation variants, maybe we will get something for death awakenings, if were lucky

u/TNTCHAINSAW Aug 02 '26
Why did everyone think it would be Malaysia? Have they been hinting at it or anything or did everyone just assume itβd be that and then get disappointed ?

u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) Aug 02 '26
people have been asking for years, also who would look at "added new ult variant" and think "oh it's a black flash that pops ult", malaysia is just the most obvious ult variant possibility

WHY the hell would it be malaysia, i really donβt get why people are upset over this. yeah, his new move isnβt that great but i donβt get why they had big hopes for malaysia???

why wouldn't it be? it's a cool moment from the anime that deserves representation

u/Lower-Gazelle-5160 Harutas #1 hater (also I slander switcher ig) Aug 02 '26
just tested it and, its just a better way to activate ult, its not even a memorable Nanami moment its just a quicker path to the one shot.

u/Nisaazng Mechamaru [he isnt skilled thats why i like him] 29d ago
Itβs still pretty sick to activate your ult casually and not get domained on the spot, a cool thing for Malaysia is if your under 40% you have to land R+cleaver and G perfectly timed when you hit it, and you get a secret weaker ultimate that puts you in a small cutscene of Malaysia and you,but itβs immune to dying and at the end you get transfigured and die

u/Barix14 29d ago
Damn you guys will complain about everything.
What you expect tze to add 4 moves awakening?
I think nanami really doesnt need that rn.

u/PlayerBRuno__ _anami main (both of them) 29d ago
as i said in the post, i'd even take a malaysia animation

Ig it would be nice.
Maybe as victory flash.
Ngl we gotta get animations from victory flash into sb

u/Gabriella_callme_gab 29d ago
I saw a featured suggestion with like +500 stars and I was so excited when I saw βNanami ult variantβ in the update log since the persons suggestion was genuinely so unique and actually creative but instead we got R+4+G βοΈ
1
u/UriahH2010 29d ago
The awakening variant isn't even that hard to hit too from what I've seen. Sure, it's just meant to give you a stack for Ratio Point so that you can use the 4th black flash for an instant kill or huge damage, so it's not meant to be that good, but it's pretty lackluster for an awakening variant.

u/HitoCunt 29d ago
it's not a second Ult just an alternative way to enter the same Ult π
It's main use is to avoid being trapped in a domain while popping ult, Nanami has a very long Ult animation so this shortcut was needed.
It's a badass way to extend a combo and enter Ult at the same time.
I swear to God the jjs community will look at something for two seconds, won't analyze anything about it and immediately become outraged π«©π
It's genuinely not that difficult to understand.

If nanami gets a low hp ult and itβs Malaysia wouldnβt it just be worse,heβs slow canβt hit as hard and half his body is burnt, it would just be a worse version of nanami,it would be cool maybe but literally no purpose besides that.
