Jujutsu Kaisen 2x5 Premature Death - GROUP REACTION!!!

[@rezymid]

i think the reason why geto calling non sorcerers monkeys is because when toji beat him up toji said: "you guys still lost to a monkey like me who couldn't even use jujutsu"

[@ReactCity]

i forgot he said that about himself, nice catch!

[@averagekobenienjoyer7639]

Yes. Geto calls non sorcerers, monkeys

[@alexinator-hh5fe]

It's sad, really. A lot of people were watching these five episodes, waiting for the eventual turn and snapping of Geto through some event. But it wasn't just one event. It was a combination of different things. What happened to Riko, the trauma Toji inflicted on him, his conversation with Yuki about non-sorcerers and what their existence means to the world, the premature death of Haibara due to the inaccuracies of their mission(and how teens are losing their lives without even knowing why thanks to the higher ups), Gojo being able to take care of all of the problems and what he offered to Geto about getting rid of all of the people even if they were innocent, and the straw that broke the camels back was seeing how two innocent girls were being treated all because of who they were. We saw the story of how Geto went from a sweet boy to the Geto we saw in JJK 0. Hater of all monkeys. It truly is a tragedy. So many bad things continued to stack up and no one saw how far Geto had sunk until it was too late.

About the lady Yuki Tsukumo, she's the only special grade sorcerer for some time and when she arrived in this episode, Gojo and Geto have only been recently registered as special grade so she wants to come by to say hello. And I think you missed the dialogue but Yuki does not accept any mission from the Higher Ups so your theory that she is used to do dirty job for the school isn't feasible. She is always overseas. She is the only woman in the four registered special grade sorcerers along with Gojo, Geto, and Yuta. You can safely assume that she is the strongest female in the series.

W Yuki

[@ReactCity]

thank you for the info!

[@VaquOfficial]

When Geto was worried about Haibara he was talking about the mental side of things, asking if the job is affecting his mental health negatively (like it is with Geto). Haibara is actually pretty strong and talented, since he was a Grade 2 despite only being a first-year

[@ReactCity]

gotcha! thanks you!

[@cxncien]

Based on season 1 after Yuuji "died" Gojo told us his goal "where his mind is". Yuki doesn't do anything for the higher ups, let alone bring them a star plasma vessel, she specifically said "either there was another star plasma vessel ready after Riko or another one was born" based on this... Yuki just heard about it. And "Geto" in the present wants to seal Gojo since it's not possible for "Geto" to beat Gojo. Personally as a jjk fan... i don't favor the Gojo side nor the Geto side nor the Sukuna side, i just enjoy the story. Geto's reason for killing all non-sorcerers is understandable, he doesn't want his friends(like Haibara) to die protecting non-sorcerers whom are very ungrateful and evil sometimes, he also knows that curses are what killed Haibara as well and they are "created" essentially by non-sorcerers so it all lines up well.

[@VaquOfficial]

Megumi's idelogy is choosing who he saves, he wants as many good people as possible to enjoy fairness and hates bad people, so he decided to only save those that he judges as good

[@gerald9992]

22:22 we pretty much saw gojo's angle in season 1. Geto decided to take the more radical route but in season 1 gojo mentioned his dissatisfaction with the higher ups after yuji was killed and said he could just kill all the higher ups but nobody would follow him, instead gojo chose the path of education and raising jujutsu sorcerers who he taught his ideals as a way of restructuring the entire jujutsu world.....

[@olympiahorton2999]

This is like a beginning of a new era especially for Geto, like this episode right here was definitely emotional!

[@ednamodee]

yall not ready for that Shibuya arc its a fucking war zone out there

[@crimsonpotemkin]

I think what contributed the most to him snapping is his jujutsu ability. Devouring curses that taste like rags with shit and vomit. Just imagine how horrific that must be to do on a daily basis. I doubt anyone could ever get used to that. It wore him down, chipped away at his sanity. So he was already not in a great place mentally by default and then all the shitty events happened on top of that. Maybe his best option was to stop being a sorcerer, but he never considered that option unfortunately.

[@willhowling955]

It’s not that they taste like that 😅 it’s nasty but not enough to shift someone’s ideology in Nat meaningful way. It’s the fact that he was also feeling the negative emotions of humanity alongside those

[@crimsonpotemkin]

@@willhowling955 he describes them tasting like that. In those exact words. Twice.

[@farsous10]

Yuki is significantly older than gojo and geto so she’s the first special grade of the modern age. That’s why she came by to Tokyo cuz she wants to talk to gojo and geto cuz she wants to welcome them and feel welcome as the only 3 special grade sorcerers at the time. Yuta is the only special grade sorcerer added to the list in the current timeline

[@onemuststand7353]

There's no evidence that Yuki's "significantly" older. She's a known slacker among Jujutsu high so that at least shows she's older than Suguru and Satoru. It does not, however, indicate by how much. For all we know she's only as old as Mei Mei and Utahime.

[@gerald9992]

20:29 geto mentioned in the cafe that gojo cannot be killed, instead they'll focus on sealing him with the prison realm. In jjk we've seen just 3 cursed items that can counter gojo's technique 1. The inverted spear of heaven 2. Miguel's cursed rope from jjk 0 3. The prison realm (allegedly) Gojo already got rid of the first two and geto currently possesses the prison realm

[@fumikado2527]

Thanks for the good reaction. I really wanted to encourage you to read the lyrics to the OP and ED music. The songs are up on the respective singers' channels. They had English subtitles. The opening also has a first take version. OP Where Our Blue Is Sung by Tatsuya Kitani ED Akari sung by Soushi Sakiyama Personally, I thought it was cruel, the line that Tsukumo said to Geto when she was leaving the school on his motorcycle, telling him not to worry because another child was assimilated with Tengen-sama, all that escorting felt pointless. In other words, Riko died, but I don't know if it was a mental or conceptual thing called Tengen-sama, but it was hard to realize that Riko's death was meaningless.

[@MAGAdoriya]

Best jjk reaction on KZbin 😎. Also amazing discussion.

[@farsous10]

23:14, both gojo and sukuna know the potential megumi has. We’ve seen him do domain expansion when on the verge of death, just like how gojo learned reverse cursed technique on the verge of death, granted megumi’s domain wasn’t complete yet cuz he didn’t master it. It’s still an incredibly powerful feat because domain expansions are the pinnacle of jujutsu powers, even someone like nanami who’s a grade 1, strong and experienced, have mentioned that domains is the pinnacle of jujutsu that he could never obtain, but yet megumi, a first year, was able to pull it off, that means A LOT

[@irkenga]

What do y’all think about the comment Geto’s said : Are you the strongest because you're Satoru Gojo? Or are you Satoru Gojo because you're the strongest?"

[@irkenga]

I understand it like , Did you become the strongest because of the person that you are? Or did you become the person that you are because you are the strongest?"

[@ReactCity]

i thought it was geto saying there isn't much to gojo other than his strength. That could also be why Gojo then resolved to make a difference in the lives of others.

[@jamaalw8973]

Love y'all reactions, recaps and overall content. Idk why but youtube unsubscribed but subscribed again. I've been noticing from other channels. Anywho, stay blessed!!!

[@ReactCity]

thanks alot!

[@Gabriel-hg6vg]

oh no. the last part is like the calm before the storm

[@thanvish7181]

Lets set some facts clear. -> Maki doesn't have zero cursed energy. She has the same amount of cursed energy as a normal human person. That's why geto wanted to kill her also along with the rest of non-sorcerers in Jujutsu Kaisen 0.

[@sgcastle8389]

Now you guys have the difference between Maki and Toji, she has an heavenly pact that reduce her curse energy to that of a normal person that's why she can't see curse but have superstrength but Toji has 0 curse energy so he is maxed out

[@joshuaanoruo973]

That's not completely accurate, but for now that works

[@bolt2134]

Gojo at the present said that he wants to change jujutsu society and he chose education to raise strong sorcerers to help him do so, i think he said it after Yuji died

[@sirperybLakeney]

I think you had some translation ussues with Yuki. In the manga it says that she refuses to take on missions.

[@joshuaanoruo973]

You're reading too deep into Yuki, she's not a bad person. Also, based on her identity (you'll find out what that is later), the reason she was there could probably be boiled down to fate somehow
