[@lordbiscuitthetossable5352]

If anything, taking to him cracked his outer shell and got under his skin more then anything else. Getting killed by Gojo is in line with his ideology of the strongest just being that. But here’s this kid, giving him *pity* in his 11th hour, having trapped him in his domain for hours, just to show him another point of view. It is both respectful and the ultimate sign of disrespect. Edit: it didn’t inspire a full 180, but the argument for Yuji’s case was the entire battle and arguably, he was the only character who could genuinely get under Sukuna’s skin and have him question himself for the first time in his life. Even Gojo didn’t have that effect on him.

[@vexorian]

To me this even redeems Gege's willingness to kill off characters abruptly. Yuji's belief that every life matters is constantly challenged by a universe that doesn't give a fuck. Sukuna's individuality and nihilism makes more sense in such a universe. But that makes Yuiji's worldview all the more brave.

He still have overcome his hatred and hoping his friends stopped him from killing Sukuna. When executioner sword failed to kill Sukuna, Higuruma was smiling. Killing Sukuna wasnt the best solution.

Sukuna is individualistic but I would not call him nihilistic, as that implies he has no values. He clearly shows respect to the strong and has stated that the weak deserve to suffer. Also stating that he simply does whatever he wants for pleasure. So he is much more of a might makes right hedonist than a nihilist.

@@philbuttler3427 Yuji's final mercy in combination to his peak understading, he gave a chance even to an exception to Kidness as Sukuna is. As he's not fighting out of that much hatred, it's pity, pity such weak creature to be stuck in a powerful body, for a creature to be stuck in eternal Tomb of bones, all by itself, to a creature left with nothing but himself to blame for his addiction to fighting and nothing else. It is pretty brave to do that, not ingorant as yuji knowns what he is risking in this chance but Life isn't about just what ifs, it's why he also mentions the excution. It's about what is and what you choose it to be, since Sukuna basically decided to thrown himself off cliff, Yuji has no more option than to make sure he stays there. Leaving him as a really powerful Bully, that showed him how to overcome such a monster.

[@kurm7161]

Y’know after reading the last part of the Yuji’s speech, it really did made me question my own dreams and goals in life. With the point being how you don’t fufill your life through purpose but rather your connections with others and yourself. Basically you’re the only person who can validate yourself. I have huge ambitions on working in the entertainment industry. This applies to music and animation. I’ve always thought that my life had a predetermined purpose to influence one other and leave a foot print in the world. Then I come to realise that I wasn’t really looking for people’s validation of my achievements but rather I was seeking that so that I can say to myself that I’m somehow worth it.

Notice how Yuji’s pupils change when he drops the threat on Sukuna. When he locks in with pending animosity, his pupils change into the same ones sukuna has at all times. Neat little detail that shows Yuji’s growth as an individual and his sheer capacity of destruction with intention. Not a wild destructive force like Sukuna, but more akin to a blade that’s ready to be used when it’s necessary.

In the Heian Era there is no way for a baby like that to survive, one the mother unable to take care of herself and two not enough technical advancement to put the baby in an incubation. Even so if both had survive thats not to say the smaller twin baby would have had health complications as well.

Yuji still offering mercy and redemption to someone he knows full well is without mercy and is irredeemable... its the exact thing I expected his domain to be.

[@jakobwagner8032]

I like to add to the crawfish scene. Yuji is having a brotherly moment with Sukuna and whether or not he'd like to admit it arguing with your brother over who has the better stuff is connection. It was very nice to see the King of Edge slip up and have a sweet moment despite the fact that he more than likely grew up with no family or friends to teach him love when he was a kid. If Sukuna dies this is lowkey the greatest gift that a shonen protag has given their big bad.

To me, this chapter and your analyses helped me understand something I was looking for. Meaning.

Their clash of ideals is not enough for Sukuna to despise Yuji the way he does now. Weirdly, it makes perfect sense for that same clash of ideals to cause Yuji to despise Sukuna.

[@rhenvao2844]

I think it's interesting that Sukuna only engages in competitive activities because they reinforce his mindset of might making right. He's completely dismissive of Yuji's efforts to talk to him, so Yuji tries meeting Sukuna halfway by engaging in something that might interest him. Of course, Sukuna is only barely mustering the effort to participate, but that small part of him always itches to prove its superiority, even at the simplest activities like catching crayfish or archery.

[@stoffelthedestroyer3741]

people don't understand Gege and the whole point of JJK. All they see is cool fights with pretty colors and that is enough to activate their monkey neurons. They go on consuming it like any other manga/anime and moving it, like hungry piranhas out for that next "entertainment" fix having already forgotten all about their previous meal. JJK is not made for them. One must understand the author, his frame of mind and intentions. After 271 chapters, there have been enough clues to let even the most braindead understand that. Gege grew up on Shounen like all of us guys, saw the pros and cons of the genre. The endless stereotypes and cliches. Gege basically said: "fk that, I will show how it's done!"

[@stoffelthedestroyer3741]

Just look at Gojo, what is he? A super Asian. His ability is basically Math. Gege turned this stereotype on its head and used as a weapon. Also, what do each culture feel insecure about? India wants fair skin, China wants tiny feet, Britain wants healthy teeth, Sand people want to own women as property, etc etc. Each one has a flawed desire, you all know about that. What do Supposedly "Asians" want? Not black hair and black eyes. So give them aryan blue eyes and unnatural alien white hair. And look how the female fandom jumped on that Gojo diac in response. Gojo's personality is a cocky punk, if he was ugly or evil nobody would pay attention to his powers or whatever else. Nobara getting shelved until literally final chapter was to break the "3 man team" and remove the clearly weaker female out of focus as she has served her purpose for the story. Why keep her on board like some useless Sakura from Naruto. You know what this entails? The moment a new enemy appears, EVERY character NEEDS a moment to shine, some unique individual opponent to handle. By being one of the big 3, Nobara/Sakura/weakest-of-the-3 they would get some filler opponent and we would get a filler fight. Characters need to grow during fights, prove to us readers that it is worth our attention. If they don't grow and the fight is boring, then the whole fight can just happen in the background, we just need to know who was the winner (protagonists as usual, duh) and be on with it. Wasting precious pages and chapters on a useless fight is absolute waste. Nobara had enough fights, she has served her purpose, Gege made sure her "death" further served the story. Recycling. No waste. If you analize like that every character, situation and author's intention, you will see that JJK does not follow the usual "merry little adventure" route of other shows. Sukuna had 30+ chapters for epic fights with everyone, yet is not defeated but exorcised like a common curse. JJ Sorcerers failed in their plan, fingers remain, Sukuna can return. Gojo couldn't possible win, that would be like Jiraya managing to defeat Pain on his own, then while on his way to the toilet managed to defeat Obito and Madara, story over, the end. When the author conceived the idea of Gojo, he knew how he would go out. It all lead to that. This is not playing apologist or theorizing, simply read the intentions of the author, we got enough proof and clues to make educated enough guess. It ain't hidden.

If Gege is taking inspiration from Naruto, both characters will die or be pushed to the brink of death. Megumi must win the games for it to come to an end.

[@yukotrey9422]

It's my prediction that we finna get a mirror of 251, with Yuji’s body on the and Megumi standing over it

Cheers man amazing analisis.

[@arctica936]

The panel of Yuji staring at Sukuna after he realizes Yuji pities him me of that one painting of Lucifer where he's crying into his arm... Don't think it really means anything but, its a cool detail nonetheless.

[@kylesagendorf]

This analysis was beautiful

[@juanpablorobayo9891]

I think that videos like this are so important. I wrote off JJK as this thing that would mock and belittle hopeful messages, but now that I can see a bit more, I realize the point of that suffering was for the narrative to have a much stronger 'savior' character in Yuuji.

[@dontkickmychick6076]

@@juanpablorobayo9891 I'd compare it to the Dark Souls series, they aren't dark just for the sake of being dark but use that in order to make the good moments feel more satisfying, I love it

[@sebisonic]

fantastic video dude

[@carn9792]

I think the correction of Yuji's Grandfather being the reincarnated soul of Sakuna's brother adds so much debt to this chapter. Yuji embodies the results of Sakuna's brothers teaching. Not only is it Yuji giving Sakuna another chance, but its Sakuna's brother also trying to give him another chance. In a way, its his brother showing him a "what if" if they managed to live together.

[@SCOOBYGD]

Hundred keeping it a 💯. You truly cook with this video.

[@ForeveraBoss117]

Something else that should be brought up about the movie theater is how movies relate to Yuji’s trainingto control his cursed energy. He watched lord of the rings, a story of an average person coming accross an item of unimaginable power that is a step in the rebirth of the greatest evil the world has ever known. Not to mention one of the covers was of the Yugioh movie bonds beyond time, and Yuji and Sukuna litterally have a blood tie that binds them accross time.

[@Middanoob]

1:15 Funny thing about Sukuna sending them off... Yama/Enmaten is the figure in Buddhism that is attributed to Malevolent shrine's hand signs. I wont't delve too deep into this, but the bare minimum of what you should know is that Yama also sends people off once they die, after disecting their character. Yama also has four arms so theres that also apparently Yama at one point bowed to Buddha and Ksitigarbha, showing respect. This is really the only hope Sukuna will show respect and/or retain some human value. He's shown his respect to Gojo (who represents Buddha with his honoured one line), but has yet to show his respect to Ksitigarbha (Yuji)

[@JannevElsbury]

As both a Kingdom Hearts and jjk fan... I only realised until this video, how well so many KH themes fit with JJK

[@Grayves_X]

This was a fantastic video, and anyone who just thinks it's another talk no jutsu aren't reading deep enough

[@Relekism]

I really apricate the KH music you put in this video man. that series has some of my favourite music of all time.

[@Nilotinibisexpensive]

Okay this is totally unrelated but hear me out, now that yuji got his domain sukuna would have initially be in cautious mode.But, Yuji’s talk no jutsu was a 2 bird with 1 stone scenario, now that yuji has no teammates for the time being, he has to be more careful now, by explaining his ideals he accomplished 3 things 1.explained how he feels 2.Wants megumi back even at this point 3.Enrages and Angers sukuna(IK THIS ISNT SOMETHING YUJI THOUGHT OF BUT IT WORKS IN HIS FAVOUR) Angered sukuna might fumble, imagine without the whole talk and just domain clashes,sukuna would opted simple domain or tanked the shots with RCT! WE ARE BACK TO SQUARE ONE! SUKUNA HAS RCT HE WILL REGAIN CT QUICKER AND GOOD CURSED ENERGY RESERVES. There’s no way to fry his brain again unless Yuta steps in. My expectations,DUE TO ANGER SUKUNA WILL BREAK A BINDING VOW

[@Sn_da_1st]

Then he’ll says ah yes the anti broken binding vow technique (allows him to use not break a binding vow even though he broke a rule) that I haven’t used since the Heian era

I may not be a fan of some bits of the ending, but I really do love this conversation between the two.

[@GegeLover-jjk]

what if Sukuna is telling us he DOESN'T FEEL ANYTHING? No pain😂

[@Cjaj2]

Say what you want, the fact that people mourn the characters in this series like they do speaks to something about gege's writing

[@alexandercrimson2830]

So it reaches their heart People who think the show sucks because it talks to much are more into things that are mainly fighting, fan service, food, and all that. This is where the ultimate authors are. Bleach, Naruto, Yuyu Hakasho while I love them they can't match the mind of this. The brilliance is that he was able to achieve everyone's character without completing them, because there was nothing to perfect. It left room for no absence yet answered it all. Yuji was not meant to be the strongest, but the most human and relatable. Gojo who got an ending befittimg even though his dreams of creating something new wasn't achieved when he was living, it unfolds with the generation he nutured and protected. He was never meant to be a great teacher, but was a greater guide in the meaning he have everyone. It allowed them to strengthen their own meanings and goals beyond their teachers while ultimately reaching his. So much goes into all of this and almost everything has meaning without having meaning. It relates person to person because that's how amazingly down to earth the characters are.

Not only a master class chapter but a master class video!

[@SomeOneios]

[@Bryan-uq4jg]

7:22 I think it may also be a subtle push about Sukuna’s existence harming many and Yuji continuing his attempt to reach out to Sukuna to make up for himself

[@BenLarson-qi3sp]

I like the idea that Yuuji is talking about these niche things and random memories as a sort of point to Sukuna, about what his philosophy and way of life misses. Why it matters when Sukuna destroys life, and why life is worth living for more reasons then combat and strength.

[@joshbell1335]

Amazing , gege is a world class chef

[@אורוידןפלד-י3ק]

Because of this chapter or because he keeps cooking his characters?

[@seriousgoat5785]

I would say that Yuji's point is that, "it doesn't matter how you died, as long as you are happy with how you lived" that's how i see it.

[@GoId3nWrId]

Why do i feel like Yuji is gonna somehow yank Sukuna's soul out of Megumi's body and back into himself before killing himself

[@SlackerXYZ]

[@blueline4857]

I’d also point out how the American crawfish is an invasive species compared to the Japanese one, a fitting metaphor for Sukuna being an invader in Yuji and Megumi’s bodies.

[@ForeveraBoss117]

Kingdom Hearts music fits this series so well. I played the Scaela ad Caelum track while reading the last 10 chapters and it was a religious experience

[@MrUniq]

Gege is really good….this is an excellent contrast and a very good explanation of past events of the manga. I really hope he continues the manga a little longer after this battle.

[@varsity.1]

I know a lot of people did not like the ending of the manga, but if you go into the series with information on Buddhist teachings, everything is recontextualized and is a lot more comforting. 15:25 I'm so glad you mentioned this as well because it calls back to characters like Junpei, or even Choso and all of his brothers who were halted from life because of Kenjaku terminating the pregnancies forcefully, only for Yuji and Choso to become brothers later.

[@DewMan31]

It's stuff like this that makes Yuji my favorite JJK character and one of my favorite MCs in Anime/Manga.
