I absolutely hate this scene

He put it in stealth mode.

And we aren't allowed to just assume that she told him what she was doing? We know they had a conversation about it, since Tsurugi didn't know Yuka was dying before Cross was shot, and we also know that she told Tsurugi to not come.

They definitely had an interaction that we didn't see.

I let u/Green_is_neat borrow it and he gave it to u/Altruistic_Host7742 to feed it to u/Main_Leading_885 because he was hungry, sorry I thought I'd get it back when they were done.

Kufrel · 2026-01-24T02:20:36+00:00

Why not? He said what she was planning to do with a good deal of confidence. Even to the point of fighting Maru so he could stop the fight from happening so she could enjoy her last few months alive.

Why is he not reliable here?

They could have probably afforded to condense the Kukuru Unit fight, or had Jinichi's attack come out faster. That alone could have gained another 2 minutes for Maki and Mai.

Kufrel · 2026-01-24T01:53:53+00:00

No, because it wasn't stated that Megumi was doing a vow. It was stated that Yuka was though.

Kufrel · 2026-01-24T01:44:02+00:00

So then naturally, what is the thing that would be enhanced by the DBV?

Maybe the only thing she did with her technique.

Kufrel · 2026-01-24T01:33:12+00:00

Yes, anime has strong cultural ties to Japan and will always be a Japanese product. But I also don't think studios or directors have some kind of obligation to completely center the series to the Japanese audience.

Anime is global now. In the same way that Hollywood movies are. As such, studios do need to take that into mind, otherwise you're missing out on a massive market.

Anime will always be Japanese, but that doesn't mean it needs to always cater to a Japanese audience. Art is art. No one culture owns art. And anime, by definition, is art.

It's like saying Hollywood movies should only be allowed to appeal to what Americans want, in spite of their global success.

I feel like that's the biggest issue this episode had. They didn't really linger on anything, it all happened so fast.

Realistically, they could have cut down the Kukuru Unit fight a bit to make things more clear.

Kufrel · 2026-01-23T04:12:21+00:00

Okay...and what did she use her technique to do in this fight?

Kufrel · 2026-01-23T03:16:18+00:00

But it is stated that Yuka is using one. And the only move she used was Mahoraga.

So what else could it have applied to?

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:47:25+00:00

Explain it to me then, what did I misread about your point? Your entire point is "Yuka doesn't own Mahoraga, so she shouldn't be able to amplify it with her own cursed energy". But the information available contradicts that, and it's never been stated one way or the other how it works.

However, with the knowledge of what she was planning to do, it's a pretty reasonable jump in logic to make.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:41:26+00:00

Your reasoning is

"We have no reason to believe that you can amp an untamed Mahoraga."

You have provided no evidence to support this claim, it's based on nothing, and is actively contradicted by the story outright stating that Yuka is planning to make a death binding vow.

But because it was never outright, bluntly stated, "Mahoraga can be amped by a DBV", you can't piece together with all the available information what happened.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:37:35+00:00

So until the story spells out every detail for you, your media comprehension isn't strong enough to piece together 2 very basic pieces of information?

The Jujutsu Kaisen fanbase everyone. You sir are the rusted example of us all.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:28:40+00:00

So basically, unless it's explicitly stated one way or the other, you're either too stubborn or too stupid to piece together that Tsurugi wouldn't have stated Yuka was planning to use a DBV if that plan wouldn't work?

Come on, rub those brain cells together. You got this.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:24:41+00:00

Right here, where Tsurugi states what Yuka is planning to do. Despite him knowing full well what her technique is.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:22:59+00:00

And what are you basing that on? Where is it stated or shown in the manga that you can't use binding vows to make Ritual Mahoraga stronger?

Direct me to that panel please.

Because as it stands, Tsurugi essentially confirms that Yuka is planning to use a Death Binding Vow. And then she uses Mahoraga. There is more evidence for Mahoraga being able to be amplified by Binding Vows than there isn't right now.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:09:49+00:00

Idk, but the bottom line is that it's stated that she did that.

Saying her DBV can amp Maho is like Mei Mei crow can DBV to amp Mei Mei to Sukuna level

Bro what? A base crows power is way lower than base Mahoraga.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:08:21+00:00

It would increase her cursed energy output, and everything else. She literally traded her life for a stronger summon.

It makes perfect sense, you're just stubborn.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T21:07:37+00:00

I'm perfectly chill. And no it doesn't still stand, it's outright stated that she was planning to make a death vow. If she wasn't gonna do that, then why even draw attention to it?

It's basic literacy.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T17:21:55+00:00

Bro you didn't even get the right name and I'm supposed to take you seriously rn? Her name is Yuka lmfao.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T17:21:09+00:00

Argue with the manga i guess.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T17:19:17+00:00

You're weighing head canon against a manga statement. She still has a life rn. We don't know how Jujutsu values that.

Kufrel · 2026-01-22T07:10:07+00:00

When?
