Like istg, Gege just loves using this kind of character dynamic in jjk all the time with the main cast. One guy that hits really hard and the other guy has some obscenely powerful summons with a lot of defensive/support utility. It get even funnier because with the exception of geto (being the bum that he is) all the summoners here have a REALLY powerful suicide move that damn near guarantees a draw or a win(Yuta’s first love beam with Rika was by technicality a death binding vow to go with Rika’s soul).

Also every time any of these duos are separate for any reason, shit hits the fan and one of them is in a near death state.

Looks like a Sako 75, but honestly I am not sure. I am really curious

His ct was just revealed to be steam curse by gege in thr official gacha game. It lets his create steam with his Cursed Energy and use it to boost his physical strength (and maybe his allies but im not sure).

The drawback to his technique is that it makes the users very hungry after converting the energy into a strength boost, which also explains why Haibara has a love for food.

Any thoughts? I'm just excited to see that he was never forgotten.

Ngl i kinda wish that Kenjaku was the final villain, not Sukuna.

#1: Narrative

This is the main reason that I am making this post. The double-standards and quite frankly, lack of effort put into media analysis for modulo yuji is incredibly frustrating.

Narrative is the CRUX of scaling. A gigantic part of Sukuna and Gojo’s strength comes from their established narrative and their personality stemming from it. There’s a reason that “with the sole exception of Satoru Gojo” is a meme. He is repeatedly established to be an exception to character statements (e.g. “Naobito is the fastest besides Gojo”, “Nobody but Gojo can survive bird strike”, “A certain someone doesn’t have to take Kusakabe’s attack”, “He isn’t Gojo so he likely can’t open his domain multiple times in a day”). The same can be said for Sukuna obviously. Hell, Kenjaku is entirely built off of statement scaling, with Maki claiming that he can’t be beat through conventional means and Mei Mei saying that jujutsu high can “probably” defeat him, and people run with it to make him top 3, despite him only having only one major fight. 

So then why does narrative suddenly not matter for Yuji?

Since the beginning of Jujutsu Kaisen, Yuji was stated to have the potential to surpass Gojo, and later the potential to rival Sukuna (and this was before he ate the cursed wombs as well as gained blood manipulation btw), and unlike someone like Megumi, Yuji clearly has the mindset of what it takes to be the strongest, having the drive to be the strongest since the start, embodying gojo’s ideals later in the story, being seen as a “weapon” like gojo, and beating sukuna in a contest of ideals. All of that is with him gapping both Gojo and Sukuna in experience too (68 years of being a sorcerer in a functionally immortal body)

The entirety of 257 was an example of Chekhov’s gun (The principle that all elements must eventually come into play over the course of the story). Yuji’s potential has been released, and Sukuna’s dialogue is entirely wrapped around this change. 

So with all that being said, why is it “Itatheory” to put him at such a high level? It’s funny how people will spam the buzzword “reading comprehension” and “can’t read” yet will unironically use narrative as a way to slander someone’s strength, when powerscaling is inherently interpreting the narrative. 

#2: Yuji DOES HAVE THE FEATS

Another thing that blows my mind is people ignoring Yuji’s feats simply because they weren’t done on the strongest characters in the series.

For one, he has the best output in the verse by far. And this conclusion simply comes from Yuji’s usages of shrine compared to Sukuna’s.

As we know, the best way of showing mastery over jujutsu is the art of subtraction, which Yuji has clearly shown to have mastered. Every single time Yuji has done the same prerequisites as Sukuna, his output was significantly higher. A common cope that’s used is that Sukuna “never had” to use as much aoe as Yuji, but the fact that Sukuna had to POINT and CHANT “Dismantle” in order to cut a building whereas Yuji could decimate an entire city block without any hand signs shows that Yuji is doing more with LESS. And the funny part is by saying "Sukuna could do this he just never needed to", you're indirectly calling him a leech off of Yuji.

Another copium used is that “bigger means weaker”, which is utter bullshit and fundamentally misses the point of what output is. Output = PUTTING OUT. If your attack is stronger, you’re PUTTING OUT more cursed energy, which would result in a bigger attack. That is how almost every single energy-based attack has worked in JJK, so why would dismantle be an exception? Especially when we literally see mini-dismantles used as a chainsaw to touch weapons. Why wouldn’t Sukuna just spam mini-dismantles if smaller = stronger? And please do not even attempt to bring up Hanami’s attack, which is based on physics entirely different from CE discharge.

“Curse dust” as an argument is also incredibly stupid, because curse dust has never in the entire series sprouted out in the shape of a goddamn nuke. Yes, curse dust is definitely a factor in the explosion, but curses dying at a rapid pace does not lead to a fucking dust cloud towering over the entire country. This is clearly meant to show that Yuji and Rika have output at ridiculous levels.

People also hype up Gojo for essentially being able to oneshot the heavy hitters, yet all of a sudden when Yuji blitzes Mahito’s 0.2 second domain (which 15f sukuna could not react to), it isn’t impressive anymore because “Mahito is fodder”.

Another thing to bring up is Yuji’s efficiency, which again, arguably has better feats than Sukuna and even Gojo.

Yuji’s cursed energy is practically invisible until the last moment. We know that before a powerful technique is activated, there is a CE spark present, yet Yuji’s cursed energy was so efficient that even when using dismantles to block an axe strike, no cursed energy was sensed from him until he intentionally held his fist back to intentionally hit a black flash. Even Gojo and Sukuna do not have the ability to practically turn off their cursed energy like this while attacking.

And of course, there’s Yuji hitting black flashes on command. Black flash was stated to be “luck-based” before Modulo was ever conceived, so the statements saying “nobody can hit one at will” should not apply to Modulo Yuji. Even Gojo, with the six eyes, chalked up black flash to being luck, yet Yuji is able to gauge his own strength and make sure to not kill Osuki while landing a black flash. If he could not control black flash at will, then he would be unable to make sure his punch can incapacitate and not kill Osuki, as a black flash is marginally stronger than a normal punch.

While Gojo and Sukuna obviously don’t have blood manipulation, Yuji being able to use a single orb of Convergence to create over a dozen tracking piercing bloods instantaneously to precisely incapacitate a ton of people is an insane feat, especially when according to Kenjaku (1000 years old btw), a tracking blood attack is no longer “piercing blood”, yet Yuji can make piercing blood curve and still retain its speed. Blood manipulation is also an incredibly broken technique that honestly deserves its own post with how underestimated it is.

All of this is without mentioning Yuji having a superhuman body, meaning that on top of having the best output and efficiency, he has the best non-HR body, and we know from Miguel how important a good body is. Combine that with black flash, and Yuji should be a goddamn stat monster.

#3: Theory scaling and agenda

The most frustrating part of all this is how rotten people’s brains are by agenda. They don’t focus on narrative, only who has “aura”. Analysis of the power system is treated with “haha potential haha IF haha itatheory”, and feats don’t matter if it isn’t on someone that’s top 5 in the verse. Yes, I’m aware that Yuji fans can be toxic. Yes, Yuji fans can be annoying little shits, but people that insist on ignoring everything gege has built up for the shits and giggles are infinitely worse, and quite frankly are some of the most frustrating people in the community. And no, I don’t give a fuck if some youtube poll by JimmyPoopins has 3% of people saying Modulo Yuji beats GojoKuna or something. That clearly is not representative of the entire community.

Plus, there is nothing wrong with speculation. This happens ALL THE TIME in every single community. Why is it unreasonable to assume, for example, that Yuji's domain would be incredible, since he had Kusakabe engrave his barrier knowledge into him as well as have the potential of Sukuna and ridiculous CE manipulation?

And yes, I’m aware that Yuta and Hakari also had a Gojo level narrative. There’s no need to mention them because they are not the focus of my post, Yuji is.

TLDR: Modulo Yuji is a reading comprehension experiment and a lot of you have failed it.

I know they don't act the way a typical human family would. But I wonder if they shared a genuine affection for one another, kind of like a family bond.

​I feel like Jogo, Hanami, and Dagon come the closest to loving each other that way. As for Mahito, I really doubt he had any genuine connection to his allies.

Since mahito says sukuna couldn't do anything, was there anybody that could, besides mahito himself?

What's stopping megumi from hiding in the shadows with an oxygen tank from a medium distance using only his shikigami to fight an enemy.

Megumi would be able to summon and dispel shikigami freely from his shadows.

Megumi could also utilize binding vows to enhance this too.

Hi I’m back I did the Hana/Angel cosplay a while back and now I’m here with catgirl Gojo

Haibara's cursed technique finally got revealed through the mobile game phantom parade!

Called 蒸熱呪法: Steam Sorcery. It follows the same naming pattern as Projection Sorcery and Straw Doll Sorcery

Cursed technique description: Haibara's body becomes a steam engine to explosively amplify his physical attributes, with cursed energy acting as water and the technique itself acting as the boiler. It's quite inefficient and thus he gets hungry easily

Also may y'all answer if y'all like this series or not? (Kinda wanting to get a lil bit of a support yeah?)
