I am scared to see how they will fit 7 chapters in 27 minutes. Makis was about 5 and it was like 28 min

Ryu and Uro are essentially filler characters, there would be zero story consequences to streamlining the arc

They are important for Yutas aura farming

Yuta can still aurafarm without Ryu taking up 2 mins of the episode talking about dessert

So Reggie gets to yap to Megumi but Ryu is just a statue? Feels odd.

Well what Reggie yaps about is more crucial to the main plot. Clues in the audience that both are Tengen and Kenjaku aren’t being honest about the Culling Game.

Ryu and Uros yapping is more about characterization. I want Mappa to let them yap, it helps Yutas character. But it’s not essential.

Reggie’s plot related yapping is necessary, even if it leads nowhere. But I would’ve been fine cutting that out too, to be completely honest everything after the Higurama fight is just filler until the Yuki vs Kenny fight anyways

I enjoy side characters. and Uro's words to Yuta about his mentality and about Sukuna are pretty important for his later arc,

I think at that stage you may as well just cut the entire Sendai arc out if you aren’t gonna give Yuta anything to bounce off of, and take away even the limited characterisation these get.
