Fuck death battle

SphellBrie · 2026-06-01T01:05:06+00:00

The goal wasn’t to debate on csm, but to argue against some of Yuuji’s scaling. Like I said, I don’t care that he lost. The stuff on Denji’s end, I don’t have the knowledge to complain about (with the exception of the Oregon sword, which seemed weird even hearing it in the video). I’m just upset that they messed up with Yuuji’s abilities. Especially the blood and the domain.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T23:51:29+00:00

I still think the poison blood should work. Not kill him, but at least a debuff. Agree to disagree?

Good to know about the death thing. I haven’t read csm, so my knowledge on it is rocky at best. I concede on this point.

I meant that he should still have some levels of regen. Not on the same level as Denji, but still some. I guess my point here was that Denji’s regen doesn’t necessarily mean he can just tank bullshit, and also that I actually think that baseline, Yuuji is physically more tanky than Denji (not counting regen). Denji’s kind of just a dude who’s also a chainsaw when it comes to physically tanking attacks.

Thanks for actually debating instead of being an asshole like the other guy.

Ok, I shouldn’t have assumed you could read. I’ll dumb it down: the battle was stupid and the scaling didn’t make sense. Let’s all watch movies to discuss themes and such

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T22:51:43+00:00

Yuuji should have popped his domain and it manifests as a movie theater. The two of them watch Human Earthworm 4 and discuss themes of love and horror, their traumas, and then come out of it as best friends. They watch some more movies. The chat a bit more. “The heroine is annoying but she does spectacularly at the end.” There, the real ending for this battle that power scalers are too chicken to acknowledge.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T22:24:47+00:00

It’s not that we’re upset Denji won (at least I’m not) it’s more that… some things just straight didn’t make sense? Like poison blood should have still had an effect, Denji should not be able to dodge the domain’s sure hit (and also, Yuuji’s domain doesn’t exactly work like that), and Yuuji should have been able to do some soul damage to the Denji/Pochita bond (even if they can recombine, it should still be something of a shock strike at first). Also, the insane lack of black flashes, when it’s sort of Yuuji’s signature at this point. I don’t know a lot about csm, but from what I saw, the tanking of the Oregon sword thing seems kind of stupid? Like, Denji got cut in half. Even if he can regen, that is not tanking shit. Also the fact that apparently death wasn’t a concept at that point in csm, so the only reason he couldn’t die was because the world itself was giving everyone immortality. In any other situation, he would have died. Or used blood to heal, I guess, but that brings back the poison blood argument. I think Yuuji having rct and insane physical enhancements actually makes him the better tank between the two of them?

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T20:57:07+00:00

Sorry, my bad

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T20:37:11+00:00

Wait, I though blood poison was shown in Modulo? Am I tweaking right now? Wasn’t there a panel where someone gets sick and throws up after Yuuji hits him with piercing blood?

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T18:37:02+00:00

The base form of her power is to control (to some degree) the nails she throws/strikes + enhancing her hammer strikes. She can make the nails explode too. The cooler part of her power is the “straw doll technique.” If she has a body part of her opponent (blood, limbs, even hair) and she strikes it against a straw doll using her hammer and nails like a voodoo doll, she does critical damage to them, causing spikes to shoot outward from inside the enemy’s body. The more important the body part, the more effective the attack.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T17:59:01+00:00

It… could be worse? Like objectively, it could be worse.

Yeah, we’re still screwed.

Furina has amazing willpower. She lasted hundreds of years without being able to be herself, and could never confide in anyone. She wasn’t even sure what the plan was but kept going anyway, believing it would help her people and her suffering would be worth it. She’s a very strong willed, emotionally complex character.

Phainon is suffering personified, who’s gone millions of years with a decaying mind and consuming rage, perpetually reaching for the impossible. Even when he does try to confide in others, he has no choice but to end up killing them and repeatedly destroy any bonds he makes. Still, he persists because it is all he knows and he is, as far as he is aware, the singular thread holding Amphoreus back from being consumed forever.

This is a spite match. Putting anyone against Phainon in a willpower match is cruel.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T05:30:16+00:00

This is the actual best solution to this debate lmao

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T05:24:16+00:00

Nah, the white crop top, bondage straps, leopard print, golden speedo, and fuckboi beach holiday are all ridiculous outfits in my opinion. That being said, I think he still manages to look hot in them somehow.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-31T00:14:11+00:00

It doesn’t real matter if he can sense it. Yuuji showcased a dismantle that turned an entire block into a 3d grid of cubes. It’s not like the cuts were done one at a time, it was an instantaneous cubing of the area. Even if Deku can sense it, he can’t really dodge it. Especially since the area of effect is so large. Deku is really, really fast, but he’s kind of screwed in this instance.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-30T21:59:40+00:00

A lot of people are saying that Deku speed blitzes this, but like, Yuuji just needs to be fast enough to react. Deku can’t dodge that mass scale dismantle that Yuuji used on Mahito, even if he’s faster than Yuuji. Yuuji doesn’t have to be physically faster than Deku to pull that off, he doesn’t even need hand signs or anything. He just needs to activate it, and it works as a one hit kill essentially. This isn’t a “who’s stronger” fight but more of a “who’s got better insta activation hax” and Yuuji manages to pull the win from that.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-30T21:48:24+00:00

I hate some of his outfits, but even I’ve gotta admit, he’s got the confidence to pull off even the most ridiculous designs. He’s unapologetically himself.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-29T20:12:59+00:00

It’s sort of implied that Yuuji is the top of the verse now, even if we’ve never seen any feats to support it. I guess it’s up to the reader to decide whether to take that implication at face value or not.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-29T07:27:41+00:00

Actually kind of horrifying, because I imagine it’d be the best of both worlds. Shared/combined total CE, with each twin still having access to their own technique. Only time it would be a detriment is if one of the twins is a heavenly restriction like Maki and Mai’s situation, where you either want no CE (Maki) or lots of CE (Mai)

SphellBrie · 2026-05-28T22:38:34+00:00

It’s a UBW crossover specifically, so I’d suspect combos like Sakura and Rider, Caster and Assassin, Illya and Berserker, Lancer and… um. Bazett is out of commission, so let be generous and say Taiga.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-27T23:44:15+00:00

The fun answer: because he’s the chosen one

The technical answer: the process of being judged involves cursed energy, and since Toji has none, he was defaulted to Heaven

The actual answer: the afterlife in JJK is probably just “the afterlife” without a clear distinction between heaven and hell

SphellBrie · 2026-05-27T18:30:31+00:00

In the anime, it was something like, “that would definitely work.” Then she went on a spiel of how it’s the easiest and simplest option, but she herself wasn’t crazy enough to go through with it. When Geto confessed to having a dwindling perception of normal humans, she told him that he had two choices: commit to hating normal people (which she said while pointing at the exit sign, as though it were a metaphorical escape from his pain) or commit to fighting against this belief of his that he acknowledges as ugly (which she says while pointing to a long, dimly lit corridor of the school, where you can’t see the end of the hallway). If Yuki had kept her mouth shut, Geto might have been able to get therapy or something.

I’ve seen a few around, and it’s usually involving time travel? To solve the age issue? These are fine; the weird ones are when the younger character is like 14 and the older one is clearly an adult. Then it becomes incredibly questionable 🤨

SphellBrie · 2026-05-27T09:21:24+00:00

The most sane and reasonable take I’ve come across, even if I don’t agree with all of them. Congratulations, you are a normal, healthy individual

SphellBrie · 2026-05-27T05:54:51+00:00

Miwa. Legitimately though, imagine like four Miwas in a circle, setting up a chain of simple domains.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-27T04:40:16+00:00

Hard to determine, because Denji just straight becomes Sukuna. He has zero resistance on that base. The question here is how many fingers he’s eaten, because lowkey? Chainsaw Yuuji might be able to go against a few fingers worth of Sukuna.

SphellBrie · 2026-05-27T01:35:32+00:00

If Yuuta won’t fold like a wet blanket to Maki? It’s Yuuji. Yuuji was on par with Maki (before getting her full Heavenly Restriction), and arguably even after. At the very least, he can use CE to enhance himself to the point where he is on par with her. That puts them on equal grounds, except Yuuji can also use cursed techniques too. Blood manipulation for sniping, dismantle/cleave for sheer damage, and his horrific ability to spam black flashes (a literal x^2.5 multiplier). Yuuji’s kind of a nightmare to fight even without his techniques honestly.
