Okay culling game Arc has been boring so far. Most of the things happening right now feels unnecessary to the story kinda like a filler. just wanted to know that it wasn't only me. |

I didn't find it boring Maybe because I am not here for just endless fights and some rule of cool But this arc if goes on like this will filter DBZ or Demon slayer type fans atleast Who just want fights and when the story gets good they cry, they want Every shonen to be generic to the core. Also starting of arc was pretty good on demonstrating the devlopment of Yujji and itadori while giving amazing characters like higurama and Reggie. Then yutas fight just sealed this arc to be better than Shibuya atleast to be at the same level, again hinting on the lore by uro's reaction and giving one of the best fight This tournament arc stands out from all other shonens arcs because of its rules (which are extremely well) and mysteries. Also never forget the main strength of gege, foreshadowing and small details. In this arc it's really cool to observe them. While I can see it's not for "fuck everything, give us fights and emotional scenes fast" fans but the arc till now is a treat for the people who really wanna enjoy jujutsu Kaisen. |

I've been loving this arc besides last chapter cause I didn't understand a single thing in that one lmao |

Eh if you find it filler then sure idc if you don't enjoy JJK as you used to because the Culling Arc is basically a build-up to me and regarding the techniques/abilities, I would rather get the main idea of the whole entire complexities behind one's technique instead of fully understanding it because, in the end, it may be something that contributes or not but at least Gege knows how to be strategic and demonstrative in fights unlike most battle shounen out there though my nitpick regarding Hakari's Domain in the latest chapter WHICH might've been better if the rules are gradually explained throughout the fight rather than dumping that whole explanation board right at the beginning |

i agree, i've been disliking it more and more :( i love jujutsu kaisen because of how much gege digs into his characters and develops them... but now it's just a bunch of random dudes fighting, and once they're done fighting we don't see them again 😐😐 maybe i'm a bit salty because i especially miss itadori and megumi buttttt i can only hold on for so long, and it sucks because jjk is my favorite manga </3 |

Here, I thought culling game is the peak of jjk so far.First few chapters were not that good ngl but I think now it getting interesting because they are showing culling game from the perspective of every characters Yuji,Megumi,Yuta and Hakari etc.I know chapter 183 is somewhat confusing that's why I read that chapter 3 times but I'm still confuse and hoping author to explain it clearly in the next chapter. |

It doesn't feel like they have any kind of impact to the story rn. |

Tbh, the power system in Jjk is a bit complicated. Everyone has different powers and it gets explained later or during fights. New moves are also revealed during fights and the viewers would just have to accept it. I am not saying that is a bad thing, Jjk does use it for its own benefit to some extent and its entertaining but it can be a drawback sometimes. |

I am not saying that is a bad thing, Jjk does use it for its own benefit to some extent and its entertaining but it can be a drawback sometimes. Everyone has different powers because either most of them have inherited or innate techniques Only there are few common techniques in jjk That's why the term "potential sorcerer" was used for junpei. New moves?? Techniques are revealed during fights because there is always the binding vow "more you reveal (better to say, more the opponent understand your technique and you are in disadvantage), more boost you get" i.e. law of equivalent exchange in a way Also lore and powers are whole different case Power and moves should be explained during fight. I ain't saying it doesn't complicate things but give some good examples because anime is nothing when compared to the manga in this case. |

The arc has been pretty good so far, but I would not say it has been great though. I think that it will improve as it continues towards the climax of the arc. |

Shouldn't this be asked until after it's finished? But anyways, Its pretty good so far |

It is undoubtedly a very controversial arc. The idea that comes out is that Gege has used everything that happened with the arc of SHibuya to make a clean sweep of the old Jujutsu Kaisen and create a new status quo as he likes. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I understand that it can leave those who may have approached the work thanks to the anime bewildered. |

Kuma said: i feel it's mostly down to author presentation of story is not enjoyable for me. it's just info dump. In my opinion it is reasonable, if we go and see in fact with the last arc it has practically destroyed the status quo of the manga and practically halved the cast So now he takes the time to rebuild his world from scratch and introduce new characters. |

No, culling game arc is not good and I am done pretending it's good. It's not interesting at all, I'm thinking of dropping jjk manga then just wait for the anime, I might like the culling game arc or jjk in general more in anime adaptation |

Somebody in this thread shat on dbz and ds while claiming jjk isn't generic, lol. ANd oh, complex=/=good writing. Personally, the arc dropped the ball once yuji and megumi arcs were finished. Nobody cares about yuta, or hakari, or whatever boring side character gaegae will put the focus on. And I feel like the main intrigue of this arc is lost and instead devolved into fighting alienation. |

Lol, what people on Twitter are into Yuta and Hakari so I don't it has lost its charm just because Megumi and Yuji's arc ended lol maybe you want more of them? I get that but this arc is currently on its build-up like Gege is adding more new characters and their relevancy is questionable but to say the least, ofc he would already plan their fight and its conclusion, plus be more open with what others are thinking outside of MAL because this series, in general, hasn't suffered from bad writing other than the overcomplicated stuff, it's been consistent from the looks of it and people seem to praise the new characters too. |

Yeah, it went from battle royale to battle royale because it makes perfect sense, might not to you. |

It has been good so far.The build up for the next major arc is moving smoothly.The power system is being greatly expanded and all are fire af(Kirara and hakari one required multi reads but they were also good and unique).We got some really good characters like hakari , higuruma,ryu ,uro , kashimo ,takaba and Kirara and battle happening in the latest chapter is hype af.Kenjaku is slowly but surely moving to one of the top new gen antagonists. |

Liking this arc is really subjetive, obviously who will like it more are the people who loves fights more. I'm enjoying it but i can admit that i see some flaws in this arc specially the random characters that pop in and some of their stories that are left untell (Uro's case) and i really miss to see more of the story and revealations, like im really curious about Kenjaku's plan.. but its only the beggining right? and we already know that this arc is going to be big so we have to be patient because i feel some of our answers will be filled after these battles end, so im still in high expectations.. after the strong ones remain.. there will be a "bomb" apparently, what is that bomb? yeah, im really looking for that after these battles. Supposedly the Hakari fight is going to be one of the last battles for now? because we already saw every cast pov doing their fights, who and what will be next? i hope to see Itadori and Megumi again with Angel (btw my favorite culling game fight until now its the Itadori one, it was great!! Higuruma i miss you) Well, its to early to judge it but for now this arc is 7-8 for me |

Believe me, it is definitely better on a re-read. I was a bit confused for a while, bit re-reading lets you just take in what everyone's abilities are a lot easier, especially if you aren't waiting a week or more between chapters |

This arc reminds me of jojo mostly because of the monster of the week kinda progression that it has been getting. The fights have been kinda long as well and basically a hit or miss for me. I just want the plot to progress at this point. I personally have had enough with the constant fighting. |
