Looks like Yuki and Gojo had another thing in common aside from being Special Grade Sorcerors
Told y'all to wait for the result, the real end result. Weeks of obnoxious Gojo glazing to look like a clown. Wasn't it obvious that Sukuna would eventually be the last one standing, it had to be like that for the plot and stakes.
The aiport reunion was great. don't think Gege assassinated Gojo's character.
Time for Kashimo to go crazy, he's been waiting for this. Either he does something which will contribute to the victory or he just gets slaughtered. In any case, I think the death poll will skyrocket again and that like half of those who've been watching won't make it to the final chapter.

Totally agree, if Sukuna runs or they fail to eliminate him this manga won't finish in 2023 unless Gege kills everyone except Sukuna & Kenjaku.

akiiira said: this manga won't finish in 2023 was it something gege said in an interview or something? i've seen this date floating around but somehow um having troubles believing it's possible. so much is still unsaid, and until the end of the year it's like, 12 chapters at most (less, if we consider gege's typical breaks) |

Guranto-kun said: But let's be real and honest here. Mahoraga carried Sukuna's ass. makes me wonder if sukuna would've won without megumis body. like, sukuna from a thousand years ago, would've he been able to do anything about the infinity? i dont think so! which makes this whole fight be about luck in getting the circumstances right, and not necessarily about POWER |

pole70 said: isn't gojo's head still intact?(which was the very reason why toji lost in the first place cuz he didnt go for the head) hopefully thats geges plan, otherwise the manga will never be finished, seeing as the gojo stans are currently looking for his address |

Bruh 💀💀💀
| @DrkSeid69 this real? |
| Guys relax Gojo just completed the Toji cosplay |
 |
| Perhaps people got a little too excited with Gojo wining. BUT THIS WAS LITERALLY BULL SHIT!Off screen death, out of nowhere and auddenly he is a fan of Sukuna? A sukuna who was beaten to a pulp time and again now has a new magic juju thanks to Mahoranga? I do not think Sukuna fans understand how this abysmall writing did both characters dirty! You write JJK0, Shibuya arc and the cull game arc and now you end the most expected arc WITH THIS BULL SHIT? How is Literally ANYONE GONNA WIN AGAINST SUKUNA WHO CAN PULL A BLACK HOLE OUT OF HIS BEHIND because he "adapts" now and "copies" now whatever he likes JUST BECAUSE a mangaka who is frustrated with his own talent felt like ruining 2 of the best characters in the series. If Sukuna doesn't literally kill everyone now and dies stupidly I can't wait for the spiteful half who are enjoying bad writing now to cry, because it is COMING. The mangaka cares no more about quality and sense. If Yuji must become a super mushroom to win, he will, out of nowhere, because this is the best this mediocre writer can do! |
| As I said in my previous comment, if Sukuna does not kill with put of nowhere slash everyone now, one shot them cuz he can adapt to anything, it won't make sense as it doesn't anymore anyway. Turn this into a manga wjere evil wins otherwise it will be even less credible than now. |
| As some previous commentators said, the way it was handled was stupid asf, not that he died. He could have died later in a very meaningful way. Instead gege went the extra mile to kill a character he hated. |
| Interesting. People must definitely let go of their prejudices and expectations to understand this chapter. |

| It was kinda obvious that Gojou was not the one who is gonna kill Sukuna. First of all he is not one of the main characters and I got a feeling with all the hype Sukuna was given I don t think even Gojou is not enough to kill him. Sukuna is gonna be defeat by a group of extremely strong JJK sorcerers not by a single individual.He won t be beaten singlehandely. Everyone seems to forget Sukuna is missing one finger and Gojou admits he is weaker than Sukuna with or without Megumi curse techique. And Sukuna didn t go all out. Sums it up Sukuna has always been stronger than Gojou Satorou. This also explains how Kenjaku carelessly let Gojou Satoru get release knowing that he would get kill by Sukuna. Otherwise he wouldn t have let Gojou Satoru that easily had he known Sukuna couldn t. Now with Sukuna and Kenjaku still alive and breathing. Unless someone do something extremely incredible to stop both of them. This might be truly the end of the world of JJK |

Okay, this one's going to be an extremely controversial take, but... here it goes anyways.
I think the most hated aspect of this chapter is not the FACT that Gojo died (Let's be honest, everyone knew an asspull was coming), but HOW he died. Like, the way Gege just killed him offscreen just like that, feels very disrespectful right? But in my opinion, it was very Gege-like.
What I mean by that is, I think, by now, it can be said that he likes to kill off the fans' most beloved characters, in the most brutal ways possible. It's like its a tradition at this point. He did the same with Junpei (Even MAPPA followed in Gege's footsteps, with the OP), Nanami, Nobara*, Amanai, and now Gojo.
I was also shocked at his death when I first read it, but now in retrospective, I think it was a clever choice, atleast to rile up the fanbase that is. Had there been a build up and then a double page spread of the "fatal attack", I don't think the fandom would have reacted as wildly as it did this time. Even though the way Sukuna won is being highly debated, I think this chapter will make sure that JJK remains a hot topic for a considerable amount of time.
I applaud him for having the guts to do his thing, without caring what the fans might think. That's one aspect an author SHOULD have. But yeah, RIP his twitter account and fan mail with dozens of death threats incoming. The same goes for me for stating my opinion I guess.
A spoiler regarding the classic Sherlock Holmes novels, below:
And like Conan Doyle, does Gege really hate Gojo? I wanna know the source on this. Did he say that somewhere in an interview, or is it implied?
P.S. Remember that scene where Yuji asks Sukuna for help to turn Junpei back to human, but he refuses, and then Mahito and Sukuna just laugh at him? Yeah, somebody put Gege in between the two.
The dude's most savage shonen author I have ever seen, and I respect him for it. Props to him, the plot now just got million times more interesting.
There are many questions arising from this chapter sure (like Gojo's dad, is Nobara alive, is Gojo really dead, what was Gojo seeing, etc...), but I'm hoping they'll either get answered when the full translations come out, or in the upcoming chapters.
*The way he offed Nobara was the most savage. He literally made the fandom laugh at her corpse. After she got knocked out, there was a small wholesome and funny sequence of the trio having fun and laughing together (Which to be honest, even I had giggle reading, and I hate myself for it), which was immediately followed by her lying on the floor dead. Yeah, you can NOW say that there is a high chance that she is not dead (Maybe more concretely so, after seeing the "afterlife"), but could you have said the same if you were reading the chapter at the same time it was released?
Anyways, RIP my inbox and the comment section under my profile I guess.

| Now that it is obvious everyone gonna focus on dealing with Sukuna. Who is gonna fight Kenjaku? The guy basically free and the chance of him dying anytime soon is close to zero unless Yuta fights him and kill him. |
kalim432 said: gege went the extra mile to kill a character he hated i always thought gege hating gojo was a fandom joke, but it doesnt look that way anymore lol if he really is dead, that could've only come from someone who really hated the character and wanted them no resolution or peace |
| Sukuna kept Gojo alive. It's either plot wise or plan wise. Since fodder Megumi doesn't have Mahoraga anymore, Sukuna has no use to be in his body. He's either planning to take over Gojo's body or Kenjaku take over. I know Gojo will somehow make a come back. But I think he'll eventually still lose. Since Megumi hasn't have a proper conclusion, Gojo may sacrifice himself to save Megumi whether letting Sukuna take over his body or off-guard gets taken over by Sukuna. But those are just my predictions. What's your prediction? (No copium)  |

JerryB3RRY said: Since fodder Megumi doesn't have Mahoraga anymore, Sukuna has no use to be in his body. He's either planning to take over Gojo's body or Kenjaku take over. I always thought it makes narrative sense for kenjaku to take over gojo, but omg your theory is super solid! provided he cannot use these "universe slashes" (whatever they will eventually be called in the official translations), gojos techniques are much more useful for him now JerryB3RRY said: But I think he'll eventually still lose. him losing was always a predicted end, just not... like this... poor guy has never won in his lifetime, not once did he win when it truly mattered to him JerryB3RRY said: Gojo may sacrifice himself to save Megumi if this happens (provided megumi is ever lucid enough to understand the gravity of the situation) hed go right back to the vegetative state hes in now. just imagine, you wake up and literally everyone youve ever been close to is not only dead, but dead thanks to your ct/ damn |
| death was extremely forced, could've done it many times better "I can cut through infinity... because I just can" |

Sums it up Sukuna has always been stronger than Gojou Satorou. i think it's very subjective opinion from gojo now that hes, um, dead? like, "gojo admits he's weaker than sukuna with or without megumis ct" ok, but how does he know that? or, "Sukuna didn t go all out" it looked very much all out if you ask me! he literally cannot even open a domain anymore, that doesn't look like he was holding back. the asspull technique he used at the end, "cutting universe" or whatever, was it not all out? I don't think we can trust gojo on this, or we cannot trust gege on anything to do with gojo, either/or SubaruHoshina said: This also explains how Kenjaku carelessly let Gojou Satoru get release knowing that he would get kill by Sukuna. Otherwise he wouldn t have let Gojou Satoru that easily had he known Sukuna couldn t. I thought kenjaku needed gojo sealed just to make sure culling game happens, which it did. gojo is not going to disrupt its flow, so him being unboxed changes nothing. am i wrong? |
ClaudioCastro03 said: Why would he say goodbye if he was about to join them? saw some people speculating he's going up north, to change (whatever that means in the context of the story) ClaudioCastro03 said: Who was that silhouette that we saw? Maybe Toji? Maybe a breef interaction between them before gojo gets revived? what are you referring to? if in the context of shoko, then gojo was speaking about toji, how he never got to reveal he was the one to kill his father ClaudioCastro03 said: Sukuna hasn't chopped his head off so is Shoko able to cure him with the reversed technique? with kashimo jumping in next week, idk if anyone will be able to get close enough to retrieve gojos body |
| No way bro!!!! I don't believe this. Gojo's dead? He lost? Just like the way he was suddenly killed, hoping the author does something and revives him(which most likely is not practical I guess). ****Sigh**** Rest in peace goat!!! Man carried the entire series. |
Joel77Sep 20, 2023 9:11 AM
| Gege just pissed on whole fandom, but anyway I would advise not to bully or threat gege as gojo's death was important for the progression of the plot. I just hope it happened a bit in 2-3 chapters not just after it is said he won. Like gege dude wtf. |
| 2023 might be the year where I will be happy. This year is not happy year. |
Bennet3214 said: HOW he died. Like, the way Gege just killed him offscreen just like that, feels very disrespectful right? But in my opinion, it was very Gege-like. completely agree on both points, a) THE DISRESPECT, but also b) very in line with the character gege has portrayed until now; i feel like most people were willingly turning a blind eye to most asspulls as long as they were small/ relevant only to characters they didn't care as much about. today's backlash has everything to do with gojo being the literal #1 character in the fandom, generally beloved by most, even those who do not count him as their favourite character. Bennet3214 said: by now, it can be said that he likes to kill off the fans' most beloved characters, in the most brutal ways possible. It's like its a tradition at this point. He did the same with Junpei (...), Nanami, Nobara*, Amanai, and now Gojo. continuing with my point from above: while what you said is very true, I cannot overstate just how loved gojo is, even compared to nanami who won the popularity poll some time ago. gege cannot get out of this one unscathed Bennet3214 said: I think it was a clever choice, at least to rile up the fanbase that is. but what is the point? the fanbase would rile up for gojo as is, but whatever this was just breeds resentment. true, (if this death thing sticks for any substantial amount of time, if not forever) the fandom will keep buzzing like a hornets nest for a long time, but this is not a clickbait article that needs to generate traffic for a day or two - it's a work 4+ years in the making, it's people investing a lot of time, money, and feelings into this thing, which once again, will turn love very sour very soon if the act isn't dropped Bennet3214 said: The dude's most savage shonen author I have ever seen, and I respect him for it do you think it's wrong to look for meaning? /gen |
| Came here after the leaks broke the internet. Probably the biggest manga happening since SnK 139. Curious to see where Gege goes from here. It should be gojover for the rest of the cast now that Sukuna has an instantaneous, undodgeable reality-wiping attack. Also:  |
 |
| Lol Megumi will traumatise for life that he end up indirectly kill both his sister and his mentor because of Sukuna. I can t see Megumi will ever recover from this |
Bennet3214 said: What do you mean tho? I mean, just asking. Because I didn't quite get the question in regards to what you quoted. Also, what does "/gen" mean? you mentioned the author was savage and ready to just off the characters a lot of people care about, and it garnered respect, but my question was, is this enough? for him to just have balls of steel. is this enough, when behind the savagery, there is no meaning? does it really warrant the respect, when it's (seemingly) meaningless? and is it wrong for us to try and make sense of this experience? because as it is now, it just feels like the end goal was to hurt the most number of people with one blow /gen is a tone indicator, means asking genuinely |
| I really liked a lot about this chapter, even loved some of it. However, what the fuck? It feels like we’re missing a page or two, not a whole chapter, literally just a move and some dialogue. The harsh cutting from gojo wins to him cut in half is so jarring I’m struggling to keep my thoughts together on how I feel about this. |
