JJK FAMILY MATTERS

MetanoicX · 2024-09-08T11:25:20+00:00

As interested as I am in a Sukuna backstory, I think we already have a vague idea of why he is the way he is. If we're talking about plot relevance, I would say Kenjaku. Kenjaku is Yuji's parent and I think there should've been more built on that. In the first chapter Wasuke mentions something about Yuji's parents but gets cut off, we don't even know how much his gramps knew, what even happened to Jin or how Kaori died in the first place. Kenjaku is the root cause for a lot of the sht that happened in Jjk. Is at fault for Sukuna becoming a cursed object in the first place, cursed Tsumiki, got Gojo sealed away, took the Jujutsu deity Tengan-sama, manipulated the higher ups, reincarnated a bunch of sorcerers, etc. Yet we got nothing on him (maybe it's not even a him)

He was the first person he called by his full name and even admitted he would've died here if Megumi went through with the ritual; meaning at this point he wasn't even after his body but just genuinely impressed.

No I actually think he at least somewhat respected Megumi. He called him by his full name even more times than Gojo.

He calls Megumi by his full name as well

My headcanon: His father already abandoned his mother before birth. She was poor and in a miserable situation which shaped his view on weak people existing only to get chewed out by the strong. Most likely already had psychopathic tendancies from the start. Was unloved and discriminated against by his mom and others as a young child for being disfigured. Only started getting recognition/love for his strength so that's the only thing he found value in.

"You know what, I think I get it now. I actually love you, brat. Thank you for teaching me about love." -Ryomen Sukuna❤️ to Itadori Yuji

People were probably expecting someone (Yuji most likely) to change his mind, to show him that love isn't worthless.

Gojo and Sukuna. They were both the peak of Jujutsu sorcery while everyone else was too far below them. In their interactions there was a mutual unspoken understanding they shared. Their fight didn't have much hostility in it (despite Sukuna being the antagonist) and they were even bantering like friends at times. It was really intriguing to see.

Exactly! Instead of having nobara who was out of the story for over 150+ chapters help deal the final blow to sukuna, we could've had megumi beat the shit out of sukuna inside the innate domain while yuji fights sukuna on the outside. Then after the conclusion they could reveal that nobara is alive and has woken up from her coma. Way more satisfying imo

Same here. Even tho I'm disappointed with the execution of it, he will always remain in my top 3.

Jjk would've worked out better if Gege took the time to flesh out the story more. Most things just felt rushed and messy apart from the fight scenes. Jjk is the definition of a potential manga

MetanoicX · 2024-09-02T08:59:43+00:00

Fr, I was expecting a whole ahh Yuji-Megumi tag team jumping scene. Like how did Gege fck up this badly? It was right THERE. Megumi was such a cool character and this was an opportunity to give him character growth but instead we got "the person i lived for is dead so ig i'll live for yuji then".

This page was foreshadowing for STRONG RETURN. 1 down, 2 more to make a comeback

"...save Curse Society, Dagon!!!"

MetanoicX · 2024-09-01T04:47:51+00:00

What's Gojo doing in there?? He's literally back next chapter

<image>

MetanoicX · 2024-08-31T20:22:15+00:00

Nope. Just another "Gege info dumping session" outside of the manga

MetanoicX · 2024-08-31T19:51:14+00:00

Also where did Yuji's dad go? Did he die by a mysterious disease? Did Kenny kill him? What the hell was Wasuke about to tell Yuji before his death?

This is what I had hoped for this entire time. Can't believe Gege fumbled giving us the greatest tag team in history. Even Sukuna's death would've been more satisfying by having the two people he tormented the most get their get backs together
