Jujutsu Kaisen is actually Kingdom Hearts?

Gojo is Riku. Sukuna is Ansem.
Jujutsu Kaisen and Kingdom Hearts powers and scenario comparisons.
Didn't include this in the video but the Heartless are Mahito's transfigured humans. I haven't finished season 2 so I might make a second video.
KH1 has "Domain expansion" as well, I didn't include it because the RECOM version is more clear. Same with GBA COM.

And one thing to note. Sukuna and the Master of Masters have the same English VA.

Riku: "Are you Sora because you wield the Keyblade? Or do you wield the Keyblade because your Sora?

[@ericdickert9795]

I love the comparison. That's a reach tho.

[@manorstation]

I am well aware some of these are reaches. I just thought it would be a fun comparison. The clearest one is Gojo and Riku. Gojo takes off his blindfold to conceal his Six Eyes (The camera angles are the exact same, of course it is different in the manga). Riku does it to hold back his dark power. I referenced "Domain Expansions" as a change in scenery and the user gains access to powerful techniques. The only difference is that in Kingdom Hearts it doesn't have the surehit effect. Riku dodges Ansem's attacks. Xemnas' Domain Expansion targets Sora and Riku but the lasers can be reflected. Hollow purple looks a bit like Ansem's projecticles but they dont act the same. The rest are just scenario similarities that can happen in any shonen anime. It's nearly impossible to create anything that's completely unique. So a lot of these are coincidences and not direct references to Kingdom Hearts. Might be hard to say that about Gojo and Riku tho (that one scene).

[@MiracleTimes07]

Ventus to Vanitas: “I am you…”

[@acedazespace]

Hollow technique: purple ❌ Special attack: mega destruction dark ball of darkness and destruction and knuckles ✅

[@Yasuda9000]

Interesting. And Master Xehanort and Xigbar are like Kenjaku and Sukana as they both planned for years for their plans to succeed and possess other people's bodies. Kenjaku possessed different bodies and ended creating certain individuals like Yuji and his "brothers". Master Xehanort possessed Terra's body and then later had his Heartless and Nobody created. Then later implanted pieces of his heart into others to create the 13 darknesses to combat against the Seven lights which is Sora and his friends which adds up to 20 for that strange black box that is supposed to be important in a later Kingdom Hearts game. Like the 20 fingers of Sukana that Kenjaku was after to awaken Sukana's full power. The Heartless, Nobodies, and the Unversed are like cursed spirits. The difference with Master Xehanort and Kenjaku is that Master Xehanort is actually not as bad as Kenjaku and his goal was a misguided one. And in my personal opinion, I like him better than Kenjaku. Of course, the Master of Masters is the true evil mastermind behind what Master Xehanort was doing. So he would Kenjaku.

[@Yasuda9000]

This is something that I just found out recently. The Master of Masters is voiced by Ray Chase, who also voice Noctis from Final Fantasy 15, Choso and Sukana from Jujutsu Kaisen. It was bugging when I heard Sukana dubbed voice because I was wondering where I heard it before, then I looked it up. Ray Chase has done a lot of voice acting in anime and video games. Now, because of this, I wonder what the Master of Masters Domain Expansion would be if he had one? Another thing I wonder is when Sora fights him, is it going to take forever to beat him like Sukana? Since Yuji and whoever else are still able to fight him are still fighting him?
