[@thomasthecoolkid7228]

If there's a character who doesn't have a cursed technique (though still has access to cursed energy) and isn't Yuji, I could totally see them focusing their whole fighting style around using self-imposed binding vows to buff themselves.

[@markvlogs1758]

Ngl this might actually to be cool to see. Basically a stronger and better kusakabe.

[@vastoking3419]

true imagine Geto sacrificing some of his cursed spirit for a permanent boost in overall stats, even if its 0.01% increase, at some point the addition would be worth it, since MeiMei was able to one shot a special grade by sacrificing a crow, sacrificing a grade 4 curse should make it wayy more than 0.01% increase in overall stats.

[@kokilabenchauhan8504]

I remember making an OC who's entire *technique* was he was able to make a binding vow with his own cursed energy and simple domains so he had the ability to get superspeed for a few seconds if he moves in a perfect motion already mapped in his brain or be able to make 20 slashes with a sword in one second if he is able to keep both his feet at the same lace while fighting someone for 8 seconds

[@wilcals5294]

Gege really took a lot of influence from Togashi's work. Binding Vows are basically based from Hunter x Hunter Nen. See the chain animation they did when Geto explained binding vow. That chain is based on Kurapika's ability which is a good example of how binding vows work.

[@wondays654]

This might not be true but my theory is that sukuna’s domain also works like a binding vow. It doesn’t trap the opponent, but in exchange it has a wider range.

[@rikley8153]

Just thought about gow binding vows don't have to be respected, as seen with mahito and mechamaru. However in the case of yuji and sukuna, that vow happened without an action of yuji. He didn't forget his vow contract with sukuna willingly. So when sukuna will say that one wort, will yuji have the chance to react, or will he just change with sukuna?

[@NemeticSage]

The vow between Mahito and Mechamaru was respected, though. The only reason Mahito was able to kill Mechamaru without consequences was because he had healed him beforehand.

[@rikley8153]

@@NemeticSage yes I know, but Mahito wanted to kill him beforehand, so there isn't a "force" thats hindering you to break the vow, you'll most likely just get the consequences.

[@NemeticSage]

@@rikley8153 Oh ok, I misunderstood. Regarding your question about Sukuna's contract, I don't think Yuji will have a chance to react. This is because of the fact that Yuji still hasn't shown signs of remembering his vow with Sukuna, meaning that some part of him is actively holding up his end of the deal. If some unconscious part of him is actively doing this, it's unlikely he'll be able to resist.

[@rikley8153]

@@NemeticSage yeah that's what I thought. And the contract on tsumiki wasn't probably willingly as well (culling games player in general). So there are probably another subtier of contracts, where some will happen and the others should happen.

[@Thetravelingmonke]

Basically, think gon’s nen contract, he gets to obtain something but also has an equal repercussion or kurapika’s vow for the chains that he would die if he doesnt follow the rules

[@nqobanidlamini212]

I wonder if one could use a binding vow that removes all their cursed energy in order to essentially be powerful like Maki and Toji....bit maybe it is something unique to them

[@coolstarb.]

One thing l don't quite understand is was Sukuna able to take control over Yuji's body in the Shibuya accident arc. He didn't say the word.

[@thetrulyuniqueotsutsukigod9582]

The binding vow was whenever he says “Unchain” Yuji will give up his body for a minute. However eating a majority of the fingers will also cause him to switch, just like it did in the first chapter.

[@OkRoomer123-]

[@elwinkayihura5155]

is it possible to have a binding vow that brings your cursed levels to 0 in exchange for a physical buff

[@Tim0chiii]

Can Binding Vows be orally activated by saying words or can be activated based on specific conditions?(similar to Kurapika's chain ability) If it's the latter then that would make certain cursed techniques very unique. Like having conditions for the size and shape of a technique, the duration of a technique or even the potency/effectiveness of technique. (Example could be: Gojo's Six Eyes. One their own they are powerful but to boost and to initiate Gojo's Domain, he need to reveal the Six Eyes. AKA a "specific condition") I just want to understand that tbh in the volumes, Gege explains techniques in detail and after understanding Reverse Curse Technique.. I can definitely see why JuJutsu is mostly unique to an individual than a majority.

[@yazir736]

Sounds like the darker than black thing where when you use ya power you gotta do something to regulate the power for example it was a kid that uses fire power but his bind was that he had to drink scalding hot liquids

[@Matt_C716]

One thing I’d like more clarification on by the author is Sukuna's domain expansion binding vow, I understand its cause and effect, but how in the first place did he manage to form a “barrier technique” without frickin barrier, don’t get me wrong I love the mechanic and I imagine the author will explain how he managed it, but I just want to hear any thoughts or ideas anyone has now

[@m8cermit799]

I think it had a barrier at first but once Sukuna got stronger he made a binding vow to have it removed resulting in the domain expansion we see now.

[@thetrulyuniqueotsutsukigod9582]

It does HAVE a barrier, however the barrier is invisible; “painted onto air”. If it didn’t have a barrier it 1. Wouldn’t work 2. Would not have a limit The 250 reach of Malevolent Shrine is essentially the “barrier” it’s just hidden in between rather than brought forward.

So is there a permanent binding vow on everyone where if they reveal their technique their technique is stronger? I remember it being mentioned in the Keicho and Echisu battle but there wasn’t a clear explanation if it was a binding vow or not.

[@BrokenRonin]

[@Nov0320]

While I have no doubt he’d eventually make a heavenly restriction video, maybe I can help out a little . So heavenly restriction is a sort of tit for tat exchange at birth that’s imposed on one at birth without their consent. Take a mechamaru for example, his heavenly restriction was an almost non functioning body where he’s always living in constant pain and suffering but in exchange for that he was gifted the ability to use cursed technique manipulation over wide range and even has much more cursed energy . Then take maki, her’s is somewhat of a reverse situation. While usually sorcerers on average should be able to see curses as the bare minimum to even become a sorcerer, maki does not have that ability .Her cursed energy is so low that she is considered a non sorcerer by jujutsu standards because she can’t even see curses without the help of her glasses . But in exchange for that little curse energy she has ,she was granted super human strength and speed and durability. Her combat skills are only second to yuji amongst the students in those aspects . Now idk if you’re up to date on the MANGA but if you are NOT you can stop reading here , if not I’d continue explaining some stuff………… Okay so in the fully realized maki bit . Because it’s not like she never had cursed energy like a Toji situation at all it’s just that she had very little it was considered almost non existent . Why this was the case was because Maki is a twin . Because according to jujutsu laws twins are seen as ONE entity . Because Mai already had an average or above average curse energy and also had a technique, Maki’s heavenly restriction could not fully be realized , so no matter how much she trained to get stronger she wouldn’t have because Mai who is considered her other half in jujutsu sorcery didn’t want to get stronger so Maki would have always stayed the same . Now Mai knowing this knew that in order for the other to become stronger than what they are one of them would have to sacrifice themselves in order for them to reach their fullest potential , hence why Mai sacrificed herself taking what little cursed energy Maki had with her , thereby strengthening the heavenly restriction back to what it would have been If Maki was not born a twin , hence a fully realized Toji .

[@infamouse9263]

My question is does the character constantly get stronger when they say their power and if so why don’t some characters just constantly talk about it or is more so like a time power up where once you use the extra CE it’s gone. Also if yuki forget the binding vow deal then Sukuna says the word how would yuji know to switch so wasn’t sukuna just setting up yuji.

[@zorro4095]

About the revealing power, i think we have to go back from the basics of Curse energy (CE). they came from one's negative thoughts right? Then if the Curse technique is revealed it enhace the curse energy due to the fact that the enemy already know how the powers machanics and its weakness. So technically it is just "you make my CE powerful, I increase the possibility of being defeated"

[@zorro4095]

And about yuji and sukuna "extension" vow i think it is just how experienced sukuna is when it comes to jujutsu so i guess it just one of those "asspulls"
