 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| "Geto" really thought this through! I guess no wonder he said he had many names, but a thousand curses!? Welcome to the age of curses, what will Sukuna do...Damn, now the next chapter seems too far. |
| I really wonder what Gege sensei has planned for the next chapter since it's supposed to be the last chapter of the Shibuya incident arc. The build-up was magnificent, I can't wait to see what the new world will be like.. Also what's up with all the people rating it one star lmao |
| Megumi's sister is now awakened. Can't wait for the next chapter! |
  |
| Ngl man I’m kinda confused on what’s going on. Lots of terminology being dropped here. So just to recap, Geto marked some people with curses and now that’s manifesting? |
 |
| I fully understand everything now. Somebody free Gojou, these guys are helpless without him around. |
 |
| This arc has been amazing from the begining to the end, gojo is probably out for a while I guess Yuta and Hakari are going to return soon to make up a little for Gojo's absence |

| Geto did basically the same thing Mahito did to Junpei, altering the brain of people to use socery through idle transfiguration. Though the result must be worse now since Mahite became stronger during his last fight. In addition he also created many vessels similar to Yuji by making their bodies stronger, not to mention that there are no restricting vows anymore. He prepared things beforehand and broke the seal. This is indeed chaos beyond control, very exciting development. |

| I have been screaming about this chapter the moment it dropped without being able to actually tell what is going on the first time i read. There is just so much info being dropped in this chapter suddenly. It's challenging and not necessarily a bad thing for me, i like this feeling. Even though i get it might bother some people rn. The need to reread older chapters and this one for the sake of understanding the whole thing is cool and wew i have been digging. A lot to unpack. Gege just made Jujutsu Kaisen go to another level. I wish maybe this could have been split within another chap or that the next ones makes things easier to understand. I'm begging to understand bit by bit and i am a little slow usually too. But damn a lot of stuff will happen from now on... From the impact of this arc/disaster in Shibuya will have on society/Japan and within the shamans community, to all the humans Getwo/Brain manipulated that have been in slumber and will now awaken with shaman techniques/abilities. Basically everything from chapter one was part of his plan... the yuji/sukuna situation is just 1 of the 1000 situations he created. I really can see it now, the reason he didn't want Gojo around for sure. It is a bit ironic that Gojo is getting sealed while everything else is getting unsealed by Getwo/Brain. One of the things that have been on my mind is what drives him, even with his speech it's still not that clear to me and to everyone. Ik the story is supposed to be this way but let's think about it.. - Getou wanted a world with only Shamans and no "normal humans", humans are weak and release cursed energy without being able to control it. - Yuki wants a world rid of cursed spirits, where they aren't even born, wiping them out all together from the world. So to treat a problem from its roots and not its symptoms. - But what about Getwo/Brain?? He did say he didn't wish a world without cursed spirits since these, shamans and non-shamans, all are possibilities of cursed energy in form of humans. Like okay this man just simply wants chaos lmfaoooo. I need to know more about what motivates him. I mean this is someone who has been around for a least 1000 years. Also i must add there is still a lot of stuff about Tengen that is unknown and confusing af. |
Viz said: qpq said: I need to know more about what motivates him. I mean this is someone who has been around for a least 1000 years. The brain just want unbridled chaos to facilitate his experiments with human and cursed spirits. He's kinda like pre-hogyoku Aizen Well true if i look at things that way it is easier to understand, by having Brain side by side with Aizen, it becomes easier to get him but..hmm idk i hope there is more to it within the JJK world-story |
Marinate1016 said: Tengen's Barrier aka the thing that was used to hide the rooms in Jujutsu Tech during the Goodwill Arc is spread throughout Japan. So cursed energy itself is primarily monopolized in Japan. Getwo or Brain marked 1000 people and used Idle Transfiguration to remotely activate everyone in Tengen's Barrier and he's going to have those people fight/kill each other in order to optimize cursed energy. Create Choas as an experiment of sorts.Ngl man I’m kinda confused on what’s going on. Lots of terminology being dropped here. So just to recap, Geto marked some people with curses and now that’s manifesting? fire_walk said: Restricting vows placed between two people or more have very strict conditions for both parties. From my understanding, Getwo had these with other Cursed users/spirits over the 1000 years but he's no longer bound by them at this point in time.FMmatron said: In addition he also created many vessels similar to Yuji by making their bodies stronger, not to mention that there are no restricting vows anymore. So Getou/brain altered Yuji and that's why he was always so ridiculously strong? :O And he made more of Yujis but only he ate Sukuna fingers I guess? Or maybe there are other super strong spirits like sukuna that they house? Also what are restricting vows, I didn't get that part |

Or maybe there are other super strong spirits like sukuna that they house? Also what are restricting vows, I didn't get that part That would've been cool, but I guess it's something different. The theory that Yuji is Sukuna's descendant and therefore naturally strong seems likely. Geto just manipulated other brains to make the bodies as strong as Yuji's. As for the vows. You know about the binding vows. They're pacts made with oneself or a curse and if you follow rules or deal with imposed restrictions you get greater power in return. An easy example was Nanami's Overtime. During his shift he wasn't quite as strong as he usually would've been, but as soon he's working overtime he became a lot stronger. If you don't follow the rules you will face consequences. Now the brain in Geto's body entered binding vows with sorcerers over the last 1000 years and the cursed objects left behind by them where planted in the strenghted bodies and they were let lose at the end of the chapter. And since the brain guy entered a new body the restrictions of the vows he made before are apparently not active anymore, at least that's how I understood it. |

| Well, the arc listing lists this as the last chapter of the Shibuya arc. That did not read like a last chapter but I've been binging all night into the morning and I want to go to bed. The Shibuya arc is the main reason I decided to read the manga instead of just waiting for season 2, as I've heard many people call it one of the best arcs in shonen history, and a few people even compared it to Chimera Ant. I don't even think this is my favourite arc in Jujutsu Kaisen to be honest, especially with that non-ending if this is indeed how it ends. I'm still partial to the Kyoto arc, I think Todo & Itadori vs. Hanami is still probably the best fight in the whole series, and it ended with baseball. But to be fair, that arc has been animated, and I've definitely enjoyed JJK more in the anime, so maybe in the manga this is my favourite but I lean to the ones animated, since I can't follow the action 100%, the OST slaps, and there's consistent sakuga throughout the series. The Chimera Ant comparisons sort of makes sense to me though. Specifically, it carried the chaos element of the Palace Invasion portion of Chimera Ant. Where there are two sides at conflict in one isolated area, occasionally different fights and characters will intersect at surprising moments. I think the Palace Invasion is a lot better for a variety of reasons, but one that I'll specify now is that it was more fair with who got involved. When the arc started, we got shots of every team involved in the circumstance but characters outside of them would show up with no foreshadowing. Inumaki shows up out of the blue, and more egregiously, Tsumuko shows up at the end to act as hero. All the parts were the established players intersect are exciting, but those instances were pretty poor. But the main difference is that Chimera Ant was heavily driven by it's thematic thesis on humanity and crafting strong character arcs for every principle player involved, everyone grew and evolved in that arc. Shibuya Incident is driven by battles. There's not much in the way of thematic focus, and only a few moments of character growth or insight, Itadori naturally gets the most, surprisingly I think the villains were granted more moments of insight than the heroes, with Jogo, Choso, "Geto", and Toji, though I do feel in several cases it was underwhelming. Regardless of those moments, the Shibuya Incident arc was focused on what JJK was always focused on, creating cool, hype, memorable sequences. You might think with my rant there that I don't like this arc but I say read my other posts in this thread. One of JJK's strengths is that it knows what it is, and it knows how to execute it well. It's not my favourite type of storytelling, and the Shibuya Incident arc likely wouldn't even crack my top five shonen arcs one per series, but there were certainly highlights and I didn't hate reading it. Nobara vs. Mahito was great, though she better be alive, lol. I actually went into this arc expecting her to die. I've read people say one of the best things about JJK is that it's not afraid to kill it's characters, and in the anime discussion thread, someone who thought they were being coy stated that when we finally get Nobara's backstory it doesn't matter considering what happens to her. I read that as a "Okay, guess she's dying" but at this point, I'm fairly certain that they just assumed she died here and the series hasn't really addressed it one way or another yet. I've been holding off on sharing that since I didn't want to potentially spoil anyone else catching up. At the point, I'm pretty sure the manga hasn't stated whether or not she's alive, which is weird if true. But I guess we'll/I'll find out. And also, SUKUNA! His stretch of chapters was easily the best run of chapters in the arc, maybe the whole series. Loved seeing him in action. |
| Give. Gojo. BACK!!!!!! |
 |
| Oh man... curses are getting free and Fushiguro's sister is also awake because of that. This is not looking too good. |
 |
| Damn these chapters are getting more complex. I need to re-read JJK from the beginning because I’m losing my brain cells for a slight moment. So um Yuki appeared out of the blue and inquires that both her and Geto desired to establish a world in which cursed spirits were no longer a possibility. Whatever approach is used, Yuki is confident that humanity will go to the next step. She feels that the key to getting to the next level is to break free from cursed energy. It can only come by optimizing cursed energy, according to Geto. Itadori who is, somewhat frozen and completely perplexed, says he doesn't comprehend either approach and wonders who Yuki is. When Toji Zenin died, Geto assumed Yuki had abandoned her way. Yuki claims that Pseudo-approach Geto's is flawed since only Japanese beings can benefit from Tengen and maximizing cursed energy. A monopoly on cursed energy in Japan might provoke retaliation from other world superpowers. The pandemonium that will ensue is nothing like the world Yuki and Geto described. I think that this chapter also develops Geto’s observation about the image of human beings and now that Get absorbed Mahito and eventually uses his Idle Transfiguration on two different types of people who already been marked with the same seal he just cast: One is how Itadori incarnated to Sukuna after ingesting the cursed finger and second is Junpei’s case about getting brainwashed supposedly. Lol Yuki’s hilarious when understanding Geto’s intent to let Itadori fight against Junpei. Holy shit that panel where several cursed spirits appeared from the curse manipulator was impeccable and oh boy Gojo is going to get sealed for the rest of his life huh? The Golden Age of Jujutsu appeared, how will Itadori and the other sorcerers going to finish this off? |
| AFTER THIS CHAPTER WTF IS GOING ON |
| a new awake? a new era? Seems the kaos!!! kekeke |
| Its getting serious now i want to see sorcerers from other parts of the world that would be pretty cool. Golden age of cursed techniques |
