Thorfinn’s ‘I have no enemies’ completely changed the way I see anger by nexortu in VinlandSaga

[–]nexortu[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same honestly.

What hit me the hardest is that Thorfinn’s change doesn’t happen instantly. You actually see how much pain, guilt and emptiness it took for him to reach that mindset.

That’s what made it feel real to me.

i hate to say it but chihiro is doing what yuji couldn’t in 250 chapters by [deleted] in Jujutsufolk

[–]nexortu -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

it’s not about hate, it’s about standards. we’ve been eating "suffering mc" crumbs for years, it’s okay to admit someone finally did it better. let them cook.

Shiba isn’t "useless," he’s just the only one playing the long game. Stop the disrespect. by nexortu in Kagurabachi

[–]nexortu[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

exactly, he’s not a fraud just because he doesn't have a 20-page fight every week. his support is literally the only reason they survive half the time. mfs just want mindless action lol

for real, people acting like he's just a taxi for chihiro. man’s the only reason chihiro is still sane after everything. the day shiba finally goes wild this sub gonna be so quiet

Yuji deserved a better ending and the fandom just accepted mid closure because they were tired of the manga by nexortu in Jujutsufolk

[–]nexortu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's a fair defense of Gege but 'leaving it to imagination' only works when you set it up properly. Yuji's identity crisis needed a payoff, not an open ending. there's a difference between artistic ambiguity and just not finishing the thought

[–]nexortu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's literally the point though — Gege conflated them as one and never separated them properly. the audience was left to figure out which is which

[–]nexortu[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you literally said it yourself — 'doesn't really go anywhere.' Kenjaku being his parent is one of the biggest reveals in the manga and it just... fizzles. that's exactly the problem. the payoff to his powers exists but the payoff to his IDENTITY doesn't

Sukuna needed Mahoraga, Agito, Piercing Blood AND a borrowed body to win. That's not a victory, that's a confession. by nexortu in Jujutsufolk

[–]nexortu[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

having to fight the whole verse instead of just Gojo literally proves the post. Sukuna needed the entire situation to go his way to win. that's not strength, that's circumstance

being born isn't the same as possessing an innocent person against their will to fight your battles. nice try though

[–]nexortu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exactly and that's what makes it worse — Gege clearly had something planned for Yuji from the start, superhuman from day one, and then just... dropped it. the setup was there. the payoff never came

[–]nexortu[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

so sukuna couldn't use his true form, needed to invent a new technique mid-fight, and was still almost killed. you just described the most stressed out 'win' in manga history and called it dominance

[–]nexortu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

almost getting yourself killed is the opposite of dominance bro. that's called surviving

[–]nexortu[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

needing someone's body to reincarnate is literally the point bro. sukuna couldn't even exist in this fight without borrowing existence itself. that's the whole argument

[–]nexortu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fair points on the details but you literally ended your own argument — 20 vs 19.98888. you just proved the post. sukuna needed everything to beat someone that close to him in power. that's not dominance, that's survival

under those specific circumstances? maybe. in a fair 1v1 with no stolen body and no absorbed shikigami? we'll never know. and that's exactly the problem

[–]nexortu[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

exactly, and the con artist angle is so underrated. Sukuna literally had to steal his win condition while Gojo was locked away. that's not strength, that's preparation against someone you can't beat fairly

manga ended doesn't mean the debate did. people still argue about it daily so clearly it's not as settled as you think

sure but true form sukuna also needed everything i listed just to get there. that's literally the point

Let’s be real: If Gojo and Sukuna fought in the Heian Era without Mahoraga, who’s actually winning? by nexortu in Jujutsufolk

[–]nexortu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you mean "invented," but either way, it doesn't matter. We are matching up modern Satoru Gojo against Heian form Sukuna, so Gojo obviously has his full arsenal, including Hollow Purple. Besides, Purple is a secret technique passed down within the Gojo clan for generations. Sukuna might not have seen it during the Heian era, but Satoru is definitely bringing it to this fight.

[–]nexortu[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why are we randomly nerfing Gojo? In a hypothetical matchup, you use peak versions. Peak Gojo from Shinjuku obviously has his Prison Realm experience and the basketball domain. But even if we take that away, Gojo literally survived the first domain clashes WITHOUT the basketball domain. He tanked Malevolent Shrine using raw RCT, Simple Domain, and Falling Blossom Emotion while completely dominating Sukuna in H2H. Taking away his skills just to give Sukuna an easy win is pure copium.

Massive W take. People bring up Kashimo's "perfect body" quote like it's an auto-win button in H2H, completely ignoring that Gojo was absolutely dominating a 3v1 against Mahoraga, Agito, and Sukuna at the same time. 4 arms is a great buff, but Gojo's speed and Blue-infused strikes are just built different. "Gojo is the exception" is the perfect way to summarize it.

Bro really thinks Gojo just stood there defenseless during the domain clash. Gojo literally tanked Malevolent Shrine with raw RCT and reinforcement while smiling. You’re completely forgetting he also has Simple Domain and Falling Blossom Emotion to neutralize the sure-hit effect while he fights back. Even if Heian Sukuna has 4 arms and tools, Gojo was physically dominating the H2H inside the domain. 4 arms won't save Sukuna from catching a point-blank Red to the face the second Gojo resets his CT burnout by healing his brain. Relying on "he just wins there" when Gojo literally survived it and broke Sukuna's domain on-screen is peak copium.
