| RIP Nobara bros. No more copium y'all. She is DEAD. Do find it funny that Itadori decided to have a nice little stroll with his uncle who killed half his friends and family lol. Wouldn't be a shounen without a talk-no-jutsu, or in this series' case, talk-no-domain. Itadori's grandpa making him shovel in the morning does kinda make the whole reason why dude is strong make more sense. Gramps had him doing manual labor first thing in the morning lol. Expected more from the chapter, but very well then. Was nice to get a chapter focused on our MC and explaining his character better. Because you know, HE'S THE MC... Took long enough. Shit's gonna hit the fan next chapter clearly. But a break... sigh. |

| I don't think anyone can be upset about a character-focused chapter. A once in a lifetime event of modern JJK I really loved seeing young Yuji and learning about his childhood. He's finally out of his cog mentality!! Not surprised that Nobara is dead. Gege should have confirmed it a long time ago for the copers |

| Domain Expansion: Backstory. A nice break from all the fighting to give us a little more backstory and development for Yuji. You could dismiss a lot of what Yuji was saying as pointless yapping, but I feel like underneath all the yapping, he was really trying to find any redeeming humanity left within Sukuna, but obviously we're beyond that. Sukuna's responses were hilarious though, bro did NOT give a shit and was clearly over all of this, he just wanted Yuji to fuck off 💀 Looks like Yuji is abandoning the mentality of being just a cog who plays his role, time to lock in and finish off Sukuna for good. And it looks like Gege has officially confirmed Nobara's death with this chapter, though it was genuinely so painfully obvious for the past 140 chapters. The biggest mistake was Gege having Nitta imply that maybe she wasn't really dead. Should have just confirmed it right after wrapping up Shibuya so that we wouldn't have to see so much desperately hopeful cringe copium from the fandom for the past like, 3 years. Also, we're way way way beyond the window of opportunity to bring her back, literally nothing of value would be added to the story if she were to be brought back now. |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| sukuna is raging against yuji in the end there |
| Really fucking incredible chapter with all the things Itadori was showing Sukuna. It didn't feel a lot happened but at the same time, it felt like a lot of development was made between these two. Yuji and Sukuna are about to go ham going forward and Yuji looks very determined and clear minded on what he's about to do to Sukuna. Can't wait for more. Such an amazing chapter. |
 |
| One of the best chapters in a while, and I’ve even liked most of showdown, but GODDAMN was this a huge step ahead of everything else for a loonngg while now. I really hope Gege keeps up the momentum until the end. Cause god DAMN |
 |
| Also what I’m scared people are gonna think this chapter is Yuji going: “We can end this now. It’s not too late, Sukuna.” Some sorta talk no jujutsu shit, but in actuality it’s more like Yuji going: “Wow, you are a sad little man. Wanna just like, give up? Or would you rather I put you down?” |
|
| Tf was this AOT ass childhood flashback bruh 💀💀🙏🙏 |
| Everytime the manga puts its focus on Yuji fucking Itadori we get pure cinema. Zoomers like the poster above me wouldn't understand. |
| This was a nice break from the constant fighting. I like how Sukuna understands, but is still evil incarnate and doesn't care to change how he acts. It makes sense too. No walk in the park could change him from his ways. He's too far gone. My only question is why did Sukuna "let" Yuji go through with this. Where was this patience coming from? It didn't look like he cared to fight back until he saw that Yuji was done. Genuine curiosity maybe? Edit: shoutout Yuji for the alpha move of trying to asborb Sukuna again. I didn't even consider that as an option, but Yuji offering that instead of offing him? Respect. |

| we gonna beat sukuna with the power of friendship when the ops are pitying you, you should assume you are cooked |
  |
| Great follow up chapter from the good setup of last week. Good to see Sukuna stayed true to how he was presented all throughout the series and didn't get talk no jutsu'd. Also good to see Yuji's development away from the cog mentality. Hope we can get at least a glimpse into Sukuna's backstory. Regardless I think from where things are, the wrapping up of this story looks very promising. |
| Sukuna getting pitied by Yuji, ouf. |
 |
| first decent chapter since gojo got unsealed. bro had a day out with his unc but the talk-no-jutsu didn't work, sukuna basically said fuck that lmao good. let's see if yuji can walk the walk, seems likely that he will now. also can't believe nobara copium was still a thing until this. |
 |
| I really liked this chapter, it was nice to hear about the world as Yuuji saw it. |
| I'll never understand why people like Nobara so much. |
| dammmmm lol gege ><><><><>< |
 |
| Itadori pitying Sukuna was a nice touch, after all the time Sukuna mock him!! |
 |
Yuji's trying to be like GOAT Netero. Let's see if this works out for him. |

| @AnchorShip Why do you hate Nobara bruh? She's a perfect character and a great waifu. She could've been an all time great too if Gege didn't hate women. |
phantom346 said: @AnchorShip Why do you hate Nobara bruh? She's a perfect character and a great waifu. She could've been an all time great too if Gege didn't hate women. I don’t hate Nobara. I just don’t really care about her character. I don’t think she warrants the amount of support she gets just because she was one of the main characters. I actually think her death was done well and that the last bit of flashback she got was a good send off for her. If she was alive for this Sukuna vs everyone else arc I doubt she would have lived very long at all. |
| I'm not sure what to think anymore. We went from over a year of constant fighting with every character and their mother showing up to get their asses kicked to Yuji and Sukuna going on a quiet little date for a whole chapter. It's surprisingly a nice change of pace but what really irks is what Yuji pulled at the end there. This god awful trope of "Listen here, bad guy, you might have murdered a billion people but I don't just wanna kill you so I'm giving you a chance to surrender and to repent". I had hoped Yuji was easy past after everything that happened with Mahito. Nevertheless, I'm hoping Gege has finally figured out how he wants to end the manga and we won't be getting another 100 chapters of ass pulling and more sorcerers showing up to get no diffed. |
| One of the best, maybe even the best chapter in the series. My hat's off for Akutami. |
| Great chapter and a much needed slower paced one. Yuji sure is mature. He's acting calm but raging inside. Excited for the next chapter. |
 |
| lol @ making Sukuna suffer a slice-of-life Nobara during the talk about raising a family... hmm. |
| uh oh! |
| This was an awesome chapter, Yuji's domain expansion is so cool!!! Yuji showed all of that to Sukuna and he felt NOTHING so Yuji threatened to kill Sukuna if he doesn't let Megumi go... Sukuna is angry now though, properly angry at Yuji, he's going to go CRAZY!!! |
| Artwork- This really was a fantastic chapter, Bravo Gege. Yuji’s character development of what it means to live/die, his pleas to try and change someone who can’t be changed, and his ultimate finality to stand up and fight for what HE believes is right. Hmmm... I like how Sukuna argues that his crawfish is better because it is simply bigger (stronger), while it is an unnatural thing that disrupts the native crawfish Yuji caught. Could this represent how an absolute focus on strength blots out the smaller beauty of a normal life [??] |
| Domain Expansion: Talk no Jutsu failed, but I thought it was the best chapter in a while nonetheless. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Yuji really gave Sukuna a tour of his old place of residence and after Sukuna wasn't buying it, he decided to scare Sukuna into giving Megumi back. SUKUNA YUJI BATTLE LETS GO AGAIN |
 |
| I'm glad Sukuna didn't fall for the age-old trick.. I mean talk no jutsu have worked wonders on the biggest of villains. Jokes aside, I'm glad it is confirmed now, and Nobara wouldn't have the displeasure of joining this bandwagon of characters returning out of nowhere only to get killed later on. |
