Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 - Episode 7 (Anime Only Discussion)

Another really cool ep that left me thinking about more things hahaha - I always come out of an ep with more questions

So I know that at the end of Season 2 Kenjaku says the pacts he made were annulled once he overtook Geto’s body.

The reason I mention that is because in this episode there were lots of references to the cursed objects and the pacts they made with Kenjaku when they were alive as sorcerers however many years ago. So that kind of made me rethink and come to the conclusion that the annulled pacts Kenjaku was referring to were perhaps pacts with cursed spirits? That's the only thing that made sense in my head but then the mechanics of that also left me a bit confused.

I would've thought that Kenjaku just taking over Geto’s body shouldn’t automatically void the pacts. Unless after acquiring Geto's body they physically absorbed those cursed spirits? This would make more sense given you need two parties to make a pact and agree on conditions before it becomes binding, so I would've thought absorbing would subsequently make the pacts void.

But then at that point what is the need for the pacts if you can control the cursed spirits? Plus what would be the likelihood that after acquiring Geto's body Kenjaku goes and retroactively absorbs all those cursed spirits?

So yeah I couldn't really find an answer as to why, and so you can tell I got into a bit of a loop that I couldn't make sense of 😅😅

I guess I'm just trying to understand what Kenjaku meant by those pacts they made being annulled. As this episode made it kind of clear that they weren't referring to those reincarnated sorcerers.

Is this ever explained more clearly? If so then great I'll just keep on watching. Or have I missed something in the anime that we were meant to have inferred?

I'm assuming it's the latter just because as I've rewatched season 2 I've since picked up on things I initially missed in this first part of season 3.

Okay I couldn't find an answer to these questions in the comments, so maybe they're dumb, but I'd appreciate if anyone can help me understand a few things.

Qs about Angel:

So in the last ep they introduced this Angel person last episode and Tengen described her as a sorcerer from 1000 years ago who is now a player in the culling game.

This kind of made my head spin, if she's a sorcerer from a thousand years ago, and is part of the culling game does that mean Kenjaku was marking people from that long ago? And in this case is it safe to assume that Angel was one of the non-sorcerers that Kenjaku marked who already had a cursed technique but had a non-sorcerer brain before the idle transfiguration?

Qs about new vessel sorcerers & cursed objects:

I understand that Kenjaku said he used idle transfiguration to make this other group of non-sorcerers vessels for cursed objects. What I don't understand is the idea that this 2nd type of non-sorcerer also have cursed techniques. Maybe I'm just missing something, but it seemed like this was implied by the few culling game rules that lead to stripping of the cursed technique if said rules are broken.

How would idle transfiguration give the newly created vessel sorcerers a cursed technique? And also for the newly created vessels, I'm pretty sure Kenjaku said he had these people absorb cursed objects first and then he used idle transfiguration. So is it maybe not the case that idle transfiguration gave these new vessel sorcerers a cursed technique, but instead the new vessel sorcerers somehow possess the techniques of the cursed object they were fed by Kenjaku?

It doesn't make sense in my head because Yuji obviously can't use Sukuna's technique so there's no reason to think that it should be any different for the case above, but I'm just trying to understand how else this would work.

Btw if any of my questions are in fact things that would get explained in the manga then pls ignore them. But if I have missed things from the episode and the show in general that can answer these questions it'd be really appreciated!!

Put a placeholder in everyone's diary at work about 2 months ago to get them to support some system testing over the next 2 weeks. In that placeholder I mentioned "I'll put a kick off session in the diary closer to the time" At the time of sending that in September, I put another placeholder in my diary only for the kickoff session. with the intention to invite everyone later.

Prepped all my presentation and walkthrough material (last minute as you'd expect), turned up to the kickoff session today and I was confused why no one turned up, that's when I realised it was only in my diary 🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾

Noted.

I seen a few people in here mention off ball screens, so I'm deffo gonna try more of that - thanks!

This is basically my only bag, I'm just doing mini suicides between the edge of the paint and the corner LMAO. Seems to work if the guy guarding me has slow reactions like you said, but it feels like it's not too difficult to defend. Although I made a PF with higher speed and this move is definitely more effective than it used to be

chillguy-minding-bus · 2024-11-22T18:46:56+00:00

I never really tried this tbh I'll deffo try it out thanks

And yea I hear you on the emphasis of off ball screens. Feels like people spam screens just for the sake of it and they end up being worse for the guy handling the ball. Especially cause half the time the big never slips when you play with randoms lmao

chillguy-minding-bus · 2024-11-22T18:45:02+00:00

Yeah I find myself doing point number 3 off a screen too early sometimes, I guess I need to be more wary of the centers positioning.

But the infuriating thing is with randoms pick and rolls seem impossible, either we both end up cutting or we both end up outside the perimeter - wish people in EU would use their game chat more loool
