    Gojo said that his forthcoming students that will surpass the term "special grade".
    With Maki's level of power,
    Yuji's growth,
    Hakari's cursed energy anything should be possible.
    You said it yourself, who cares what authorities say?!
    After Sukuna and Kenjaku are dealt with the students will decide how the Jujutsu society is going to be from than on.

      I agree with Gojo's assessment of his students' potential. They are all incredibly talented individuals with the potential to surpass the current boundaries of jujutsu sorcery.
      Maki's physical prowess and mastery of cursed tools are already on par with special grade sorcerers. With her continued development, she has the potential to become one of the most powerful sorcerers in history.
      Yuji's growth has been remarkable, and his ability to absorb and control cursed energy makes him a formidable opponent. With more training and experience, he could easily reach special grade level or even surpass it.
      Hakari's cursed energy is unique and extremely powerful. His ability to reverse causality allows him to turn any situation to his advantage, making him a very dangerous opponent. With more control over his abilities, he could become one of the most powerful sorcerers in the world.
      Once Sukuna and Kenjaku are dealt with, the students will indeed have the opportunity to shape the future of jujutsu society. They have the potential to create a more equitable and just world for all sorcerers.

    I would say Maki is unquestionably special grade if she was to be ranked as a sorcerer. The feat of being able to wipe the Zenin clan alone is enough for her to qualify. That is immediately a massive threat to the higher ups and would have her registered as special grade.
    I also think there's still some grap between Yuta and Hakari. In that same chapter where they're put on the same level by Gojo, Maki also reminds Yuta that he specifically is their insurance policy. I think the fact that he's their last line of defense indicates hes still their strongest.
    Yuji doesn't have low cursed energy, but I think he simply isn't on their level (unless he got a lot stronger in the time skip).

    • @daymianhogue1634
      @daymianhogue1634 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +26

      On the Maki reminding Yuta thing? Based on the events that transpired afterwards? It's very possible Yuta/Hakari are on a similar level but they promised Kashimo he'd get first chance to fight Sukuna if everything else failed... and Hakari specifically promised him after their fight that he'd help make sure Kashimo could fight Sukuna at some point. Which may have later been confirmed with a binding vow or something. Which is why Hakari and Kashimo go out before Yuta rather than a power gap. Plus they probably want someone like Yuta to stay with the weaker characters because they know Kenjaku is lurking about. So it's probably best he stays around to defend everyone since they know Kenjaku ain't gonna go down to anything less than a bonafide top tier like Yuta. And they've already implied at some point Maki may try to assassinate Kenny, or Sukuna using her "invisibility" (cant be sensed)

    Id like to point out its highley likely that Yuji devoured the rest of the death womb paintings through his conversation with Choso in order to get stronger. Its a very real possibility that due to their unique blood relation, Yuji may have gained their Cursed Energy to his own, enhancing his base supply and even giving him their techniques. IF that is true, Yuji is defintently a special grade even without Sukunas technique.

      I’d also like to add that in the latest chapter Yuji said that he was teached by Noritoshi because Choso is a terrible teacher. Yuji was teached by the two sorcerers that can use blood manipulation so there is probably a high chance that he was also able to use blood manipulation after eating the other death womb paintings.

    Yuji has always had CE (after eating the first finger). People keep saying that he "reached Grade 1 without CE" but that's not correct. The statement they are referencing is when Mei Mei compares him to Kusakabe. The actually quote is "To be this good without a curse technique... I think you're the only one since Kusakebe.". Yuji has CE just not (as of that moment) a CT.

    • @xmere
      @xmere  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Yea I quickly changed my wording to little CE. When I said Yuji REACHED G1 level with little CE, I was talking about Goodwill, where even tho he could keep up with Todo in their fight, and Todo said Yuji was devouring him, Yuji still had little to no CE control, and Todo had to teach him how to flow cursed energy through his body later in those chapters. Yea now Yuji has normal CE. Also in the Higuruma figjt Yuji was able to fight him equally with no CE, I shouldve put that in the video.

    • @rbr1170
      @rbr1170 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      Yeah, people keep mistaking that as if Yuji has Heavenly restriction. Regular people who can see and interact with curse spirits obviously have CE. And even without CT, we can't really say he has "low or little" curse energy. It was actually never stated clearly how much CE Yuji has because he does not rely on it that much because he has no CT. He may have low "control" over his CE, but that does not mean he has low CE capacity and output. Blackflash has a very efficient usage of CE as well, so him doing 3 of those does not also tell us how much he has. His endurance and durability is also from his physical build.
      Another thing that people confuse is that Yuji got the power related to souls thru Sukuna. Nope. Kenjaku made him as a vessel, a cage. Of course he would have the capability to take on another soul. If he got it from Sukuna, well, how stupid of Sukuna to teach Yuji's body to become his own cage. Yuji can't be a vessel if he cannot already contain another soul.

    Personally when it comes to Maki, I think its interesting to take Gojo's statement over Kenjaku's who lived alot longer and has a more pragmatic outlook. Was Gojo doing what JJK higherups did and putting too much emphasis on Cursed Energy usage? I personally think she is above Hikari just because of her physical stats, counter against most domains, and the fact that she has a weapon that can cut souls, something we havent seen anyone to be able to heal from. All 3 should be, only Yuuji being debatable but id still place him there because of his growth

      Do remember that Gojo's statement was specifically in the context of fighting Sukuna. It's possible that he didn't mention her because she just has an abysmal matchup against him.
      Without cursed energy she can't use any of the usual anti-domain measures, and because Sukuna's cursed technique specifically has a variant that hits inanimate objects, her usual protection wouldn't apply. So at best she could force a single domain usage even though she's really good against pretty much everybody else.

      @xyzdestruction 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Yeah I think maki should be considered the strongest out of the 3, including even yuta my argument is her sword we know Rika goes back if she's damaged enough, domains don't work on her and she's more skilled than yuta in hand to hand combat because that's all she can do or it could be like rock, paper, scissors and hakari beats maki. sukuna also was more interested in her than yuji so I consider her special grade 100% but I think yuji is grade 1 or supreme grade 1 because he's not slumped with the 3 heavy hitters but with higaruma a grade 1. And I think due to the gojo's statement I think he wanted maki to deal with smth else herself why why send 3 people to deal with a two person threat, then maki might deal with kenny

      Having a weapon isnt what determines someones grade though, what they can do w/o said cursed tool does though. Toji with playful cloud was substantially way better than Maki vs Dagon when she herself had playful cloud, at that point Toji would of been special grade & Maki grade 1 or grade 2. But now its easy to argue Maki would be special grade if she scales anywhere around the level of Toji who was able to take out two special grades, teen Geto & teen Gojo. I also would argue that Yuji at this point is also low special grade level just from how he kept up with Maki & Sukuna in their fight, but he may scale way higher now post time skip.

      That is your head cannon. Hakari only said he will go fight the guy with the highest point. Yuta just went with the decision because he trust in Hakari's strength (even if he is actually stronger than him or not). And if you want to infer from that, it should be like this: The player with the highest point is the guy who is ready and has been killing other players. And this was proven immediatel with Panda who was attacked and "killed" almost immediately. And knowing that of all the crew, Hakari is the only one who can actually die and still not die, i.e. killed a couple of times and probably tire out the guy and make him give up his points (because that is actually their main objective). Another proof of that is Charles' life being spared by Hakari. So yeah, we don't know how Hakari will do against a group who will have slower domain activation time.
      But in terms of overthrowing a nation, he probably won't be able to do it especially if he just uses his hands. Principal Yaga with an army of curse dolls will do much much better.
      But Hakari on a killing spree can probably overthrow a small nation because with millions of people to activate his RCT on, he will be on a continuous roll. The nation need to be prepared enough for him so they can use traps. But on a straight up fight? Nah, he will dominate their armies. They would need to use long distance missiles to incapacitate him and limit his ability to activate his domain. But if he enters a nation with people, civilians and militant combined, that nation be better prepared to bomb their own people.

    I think the term of "special grade" is being used too loosely nowadays. I don't think Gojo's inference on other character's powers should be used to determine if these characters are worthy of holding the title of Special Grade. Special grade is part of an official classification system that precedes Gojo's birth, so why did Gojo's opinion matter so much in this video. If we went by the standards being presented in this video, we can also conclude that characters like characters like Takaba and Megumi are also potential Special grade (maybe not now but they will be eventually). If anything Kenjaku's knowledge and qualification requirements are a much more concise and objective indicator of who should be given the special grade title, though it may classify. If we went by Kenjaku's definition the only character between Hakari, Maki and Yuji, that will have the potential of being classify as a special grade is Maki (I agree with everything he said with Maki in the video). Hakari having to rely on hitting jackpot and is only OP for 4:11 minutes at a time is below special grade standard. As good as Hakari CT is, how can his ability be able to topple a whole nation? I also agree with everything he said about Yuji (it too early and Yuji will need a lot of upgrade to be considered a special grade).

      His ability can topple a whole nation if you couple it with his sheer speed and strength, he's also special grade because he can beat Kashimo (who is definitely classified as Special Grade even without the use of his CT)
      But if you don't wanna take that as well, Hakari can also beat
      Ryu Ishigori and Takako Uro who are both Unregistered Special Grades as they can keep up with Yuta (who is definitely a Special Grade) although granted, Yuta was definitely holding back a fair bit

      People meat ride the “topple a nation statement” while simultaneously misrepresenting it.
      In that’s same fight where he makes that statement he’s going against Yuki. An interesting thing that Kenjaku points out is that’s Yukis technique is not in the Jujutsu Tech Registry. Meaning that she was given the rank without having to disclose her technique.
      I see a lot of people say that it’s because she can make a black hole and that’s why she was given the rank but that doesn’t make sense given what Kenjaku revealed. How could they know she could do that while also not knowing her CT?
      This isn’t out of the realm of possibility considering Kusikabe, a grade 1 sorcerer was also ranked despite not having an innate technique.
      So the whole nation statement likely means that’s conventional military won’t be able to take them down.

      @@Misquif Hakari’s ability is basically just a physical power boost coupled with RCT. There is no evidence that Hakari can start on the one side of the a nation and go on to destroy every single thing in his path until he gets to the other side unless we assume that he’s going to do it like he’s the Hulk and punch everything in his path while he’s in jackpot. Ishigori at the very least had a blast cannon that can actually do damage on a consistent basis. Uro can literally control the sky. Kashimo was never stated to be on the level of a special grade (to my knowledge). Even Uruame has an better chance of being a special grade than Hakari since their CT is destructive enough. I’m not saying Hakari can’t beat special grade level opponents. I’m just saying that his CT isn’t special grade worthy.
      The fact of the matter is power alone isn’t the only requirement to be that needs to be considered when it comes to special grade status. When it comes to a special grade, you should be able to take over a whole country. Based on this, Hakari doesn’t fit the second requirement.

So yeah, Naoya is for sure special grade. And Maki's completed version makes her a special grade.
      Taking note that the grading is highly political and was even stated in the manga that the only reason Maki has not been promoted much ealier is because the Zenin clan is preventing it and only when Todo (who does not care about the higher ups) nominated that it was considered.

    I personally believe that it is possible to regrow your head with RCT via a binding vow. In exchange for something, you can use a binding vow to store positive CE in your neck/body, and if you lose your head the binding vow will activate to use that stored positive CE to regrow it. It would take a lot of planning, and probably would cost something heavy, but it’s possible.
    Edit: also, look at the color pages of the 2 latest chapters. Yuji’s arms are not Sukuna arms, they’ve transformed into something never before seen.

      Hakari may actually be an exemption from what we've seen so far. His RCT is automatic and does not rely on his "brain" for control because it was even stated that Hakari does not actually know how to perform RCT. That means the part of his brain that would contain the RCT control is not developed for that purpose. So technically Hakari in RCT is closer to curse spirits and that he can probably grow his body from just the head alone the same way that Jogo grew back his body just from the head. So yeah, Sukuna cutting his neck won't really 'cut it'. And even if Sukuna did try the Ryu version, as long as there is a major portion of his body, he probably will RCT because his entire body is practically just curse energy while in Jackpot Mode. So Sukuna has to time it with his Jackpot's last second.

Two!

So unless his soul is attacked and changed its shape, then his automatic RCT won't probably restore his original body's shape.

    Grade 1 to special grade is a bit arbitrary as the idea was created way before characters started getting exoteric or mega powerful powers. Just because you can beat a special grade doesn't mean you are a special grade. As special grade main requirement is if they can do mass destruction or destroys something of a large size (a country).
    If I have the ability to summon a giant meteor from space that can blow up all of Japan but takes me 10 years of channeling my strength to do so. I would still be "special grade" even if a grade 4 sorcerer can beat me.
    If I have the ability to create the zombie virus and spread it whenever I want. I can be special grade by the virtue of it easily taking down an nation that way even if other sorcerers can easily defeat the zombies.
    The reason why it's confusing in a battle Shonen like JJK is because characters of higher grades also tend to directly just have much higher stats in terms of physical/direct on fights with massive difference between characters.
    So it's an matter of opinion of special grade is who is the "strongest" sorcerers in terms of combat or special grade as in anomalies that can take down society.

    7:50 sukuna slicing hakari's neck off would kill him. ONLY IF the neck flew off.
    exactly as you had said, sukuna sliced off gojo's head in one swoop and gojo simply healed it with reversed cursed technique before it was too far from gojo's torso to heal.
    Hakari would need to be obliterated completely in one move to be killed, just like how mahoraga got demolished by the fire arrow from sukuna.

      ​@@bloodwolf6818 everything you said is true, blue can even destroy sukuna IF it hit, and sukuna could easily shred hakari's head.
      though my point is that we don't even know what sukuna is actually capable of despite all of his feats so far. for example, when gojo got his neck sliced off why didnt sukuna just shred gojo into little cubes? we've seen him done it multiple times and he chooses not to do it to gojo, which leads me to believe that sukuna is way stronger than we believe him to be. sukuna could've just been cocky or maybe he is unable to fully control cleave and dismantle in certain situations, OR it could just be a plot hole.
      One situation where sukuna was unable to control his dismantle properly was against the first finger bearer we see in the show, leading him to slice the curse into way more than 3 slices, mentioning that it was weaker than he thought. This could mean that sukuna's dismantle is based on how strong or how weak the enemy is and that not even sukuna has full proficiency with that technique.

    The thing about special grade ranking is that you need to be able to take down a country on your own, as stated by Kenjaku, and without a strong enough CT one can never achieve it regardless of how strong they physically are, which includes all 3 of them xd, as none of them have outstandingly strong CT, hell Maki and Yuji don't even have one to begin with. But as Gojo said when they reach their full potential the rank of special geade will become obsolete, as even if they cannot be classified as special grades due to not having CTs strong enough, they would be so physically gifted that they could just beat any special grade with just pure hands, so then what would special grade even mean anymore. They are going to surpass special grade, not achieve it!

    • @rbr1170

      The same reason that Principal Yaga must be a special grade. An unhinged Yaga creating an army of curse dolls? Yeah, he can take over a country.
      But I'll disagree on just plain lacking a strong enough CT if you mean lacking instantaneous destructive power.
      There are cases where Maki and Yuji can take on a small country. Not every country has the military power of US and other members of the Security Council. And really, a nuclear weapon only works if the enemy is outside the country or at least in an area where that country won't think twice bombing. Of course if you will not allow Maki, Yuji and Hakari to use weapons, sure. But with access to some weapons? They just need to infiltrate the country and go from there. Sure it will not do it in a day like Gojo or Yuki, but they will eventually be able to do it.
      And if you say the benchmark for a country is the US, and they know they will be attacked, then I think only Gojo has the chance because he is the only one who can teleport there or intercept a nuclear weapon and send it back. Yuki with her destructive powers will just get nuked before she leaves Japan.

    I'd believe maki is definitely special grade majorly because apart from the two outliers (gojo and sukuna). Anybody who fights Maki and isn't deathly serious or slips up even the slightest gets beaten by her. Sge physically outdoes basically everyone, and hard counters their domain. Like Hakari's domain doesn't work on her. About the Gojo statement i'm not sure it's too accurate to lower her level. Gojo long ago already said they could surpass him, because he understands their curse energy and technique. It's quite possible he doesn't even know how strong current Maki is. Since 6 eyes won't be able to judge her.
    I actually think she fits snugly into special grade below yuta above Hakari.
    Plus i think anyone who can take out the disaster curses with relative ease could almost be the opening to special grade. You see them destroying grade 1s but every special grade makes a meal out of them

    I’m pretty sure we were explained to fairly early on that Sorcerer grades are established based off of your cursed energy and your cursed techniques strength and versatility. Special grades are said to be able to destroy a country, and I think Hakari and Yuji both are semi-special to special grade level at this point. But Maki by definition, can’t be special grade. She doesn’t adhere to the grading system, as she isn’t technically a sorcerer or curse user. She doesn’t have cursed energy or a technique. She transcends the grading system in that aspect, as she has all the skill and power of a special grade, but without the CE and CT.
