    At 11:06 , Hakari's binding vow actually took the CE reinforcement of his left arm to spread it out throughout his whole body

    The power system would be complete, if only Gege told us what the consequences of breaking a binding vow are. It’s something that all sorcessors even top tiers like Sukuna and Kenjaku are weary of but it’s never expanded upon.
    And Sukuna belting them out like nothing cheapens it

      If it’s a vow with yourself, you just lose the buff you otherwise gained if you break it. Take Nanami for example, if he were to break his “Overtime” vow, he’d lose the buff he got from it.
      What’s not explained is what happens when you make a vow with someone else. That’s what everyone is scared of, not breaking one with yourself

      It may be that Gege didn't show us consequences of breaking the binding vow because he is saving it for the future. Maybe he wants to show us consequences of breaking Bidning Vows through Sukuna? That's why he showed us how many of them were used by him? That would make a lot of sense to me
      Ofc, that is just a speculation, so we need to wait to see how it will play out. Gege still has time to redeem himself in this aspect

      You just don't pay attention, Sukuna is making "Pacts with oneself" not pacts with others, so he would only lose what he gained, a pact with others is when you get into risk, Sukuna has only made 2 of these that we know of, Kenjaku has made at least 1000, so attack him, not Sukuna

    2:23 hakari did the opposite of this, he didnt reinforce his arm in exchange of higher level of reinforcement in the rest of his body, this was done to survive one if kashimo's attack

  • @senjusan6359
    @senjusan6359 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +23

    I think it would be cool if Gege explained positive curse energy and why it doesn't manifest something opposite to curse spirit as:
    Benevolent beings do not wish to harm anyone, nor to interfere with free will of people, that is why positive energy do not create entities with their own agendas. Eventually something similar to that
    When it comes to conpet of covering yourself with CE to protect yourself from Cursed Speech, I think that you are overanalyzing. People in JJK are contently using CE reinforcement for everything, including things like being thrown into a building and still surviving thanks to that reinforcement.
    You bring Inumaki's CT in that equation but ignore the fact that Inumaki's CT is one of the only CT's that directly are related to your senses. If there was any other CT that works on your sense of for example smell, then reinforcement of your nose with CE would make sense to bring up, but since vast majority of CT's are much more complex than that, or are simply used to damage your body directly, there is no reason to show us examples of that.
    Also, your issue with how quickly Yuji learned Jujutsu. That was answered in recent manga chapter. Yuji was so quick to learn for two reasons:
    1. He is the son of Sukuna's twin reincarnation
    2. His ability to learn Jujutsu so quicky stems from the fact that Sukuna used Yuji's body to perform high level Jujutsu
    Someone like Yuta for example, learn so fast because of his genetic blessing. Yuta is a child of Suguwara and Fujiwara bloodline, two of the most powerful clans in existence. That is why he was able to grasp Jujutsu so fast, it was written in his genes from the very beggining.
    It feels like this video was made to nit pick everything about JJK. I can make thousands of nitpicks about every single power system that exists in anime/manga, with actual good examples.
    Also, when it comes to culling games players who learned Jujutsu very fast... in reality the only one player who can claim that title is Higurama, as he is the only one who truly impressed Sukuna. Every single other one players who was given CT by Kenjaku, who isn't a reincarnation, was killed in CG or was simply forgotten by the story. True pure talents do happen, they are very rare, hence why we can only see Higurama who excels in that matter, while everyone else is just a fodder with no real impact to the story.
    When it comes to "Talent going beyond your effort". That is the ultimate truth of our reality and also something very often displayed in anime and manga. For example Naruto, who was initially presented to us as an underdog, was actually a child of prophecy who was a reincarnation of a god and son of the most powerful Ninja in history.
    There is nothing wrong with saying that your genetics are the most important part of your potential, because that is literally the truth that stems directly from our world. Your genetics are very important, for example, if you dream about becoming a model, but you weren't born tall and thin (and of course handsome) then you won't achieve anything in said dream. The same principle applies to Jujutsu

      How ? It’s already CE as a concept is formed from strong negative energy. So positive cursed spirits can’t be a thing and that’s why positive energy extinguishes them and can only be used by humans.

    • @senjusan6359
      @senjusan6359 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +44

      No it doesn't.
      If you think about it, positive energy is something that needs to be created by the will of people, and if people's will align with good, they create good, positive energy. There are no beings created from that positive energy, because good willed beings do not wish to interfere with world of the living, because they are good in nature.
      RCT being something that only humans can produce is also logical, because only humans are capable of doing good things, while cursed spirits are incapable of that, hence why they only can use negative energy

    6:20 I think you dropped the ball here cause the genetics are a frequent theme in jjk since most people are selectively breed to be sorcessors and carry certain techniques best for jujutsu and trained to maximize it, as seen with the great 3 families.
    But even those born with a random or weak can become monsters but it depends on how far and how creativity you be. Sukuna is the best example of this cause ‘shrine’ is as simple as it gets, but through engaging in several taboos and training him to the limit to master all the skills of jujutsu he became the king.
    Just like in hunter x hunter those with innate talent have a head start but the power is board enough for others to compete even with weak CTs.

Higaruma is an exceptional prodigy not the norm, Takaba isn't necessary good at all in Jujutsu as his technique can make him as strong as the joke needs him to be. So cursed energy and the control of it can be handle by his technique.

  • @pezpro4946

    Something that's always bugged me about power systems like cursed energy and others like it is how they fundamentally are ingrained into their world. Jujutsu Kaisen is set on an earth supposedly near-identical to that of our own but when we see characters capable of truly monstrous things like teleportation, exploding entire buildings and city-scale regions, producing electricity, etc, it makes me wonder why there wasn't a fundamentally different route that industrial and military-based advancements were made.
    Also, I think some cursed techniques simply break the immersion and suspension of belief all-too well. If sorcery is magic, then of what possible reason would characters be given abilities like the power to produce/control sugar, control crows, have seemingly religious ties like Angel's (does this imply that magic is connected to religion?), or in my opinion the most confusing, Nanako's picture technique.
    These techniques are supposedly "innate" and ingrained in the brain itself, which makes me wonder, when Nanako was born, what connection did her brain have to smartphones, and why? Things like crow manipulation and sugar manipulation break my immersion that this is "magic" because it seems to follow no clear will of it's own and abilities are chosen for their usefullness/interestingness by the author rather than some overarching magical premise

    Lastly the only thing I want to talk about is binding vows because I've come to understand a lot about how this series works and it's made me appreciate it more but I do get everyone's criticism for binding vows.
    Simply because there's a greater mystery on how jujutsu works. From what I can tell binding vows don't care about the context of the situation that you're in all they care about is the raw Jujutsu you're using.
    In Shibuya Sukuna was able To make his domain expansion larger in exchange for their being an escape route. This seems like a pretty fair trade if the domain in question wasn't Sukuna. Where you would have to heal off getting constantly slashed and also getting jumped by Sukuna himself to escape.
    Another TH-camr posed a question saying the curse technique that brought Toji back to life was able to summon his soul's information. Summon the information from where? We know curse techniques are stored in the brain and engraved in the body so where was Toji's soul information? The answer is we simply don't know and much about Jujutsu hasn't been revealed.
    JJK takes A LOT of influence from Bleach much more than people realize and the path to strength is more so based on personal enlightenment rather than physically training to get stronger although characters in both series do train.

    I feel like I have a lot to say about this video from the beggining alone so I will write out some notes as replies as the video goes on
    1:13 A reccuring theme in the series is that "love" is a curse as well. Postive emotions are fuel for negativity. For example Yuta and Rika being close is what caused her to become a vengeful spirit in death. This concept of curses also exists in the more metaphorical form, like Yuji and Junpei, or Toji's arc. etc. Adding a positive energy varaint would not only be redudant (because positive enegy in verse is just a high level application or regular cursed energy), but would also undermine the overarching theme.

    • @bruhfunny8123
      @bruhfunny8123 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      2:20 Reinforcement doesn't enhance senses, it can only improve physicals. Even gojo can't see Sukuna's slashes. Maki and Toji, however, can which I think it is a lot cooler than just making it so that everyone who has CE reinforcment can just counter ablitiy specfic properties.

    • @bruhfunny8123
      @bruhfunny8123 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      2:28 This is how sorcerers naturally fight, hence why there is usually a glowing effect in their hands and only occasionally a glowing effect around their body. As it is explained when fighting Yuta, generally sorcerers try to control the cursed energy to only form at the point of the strike. We also see sorcerers gather all their cursed energy into specific vulnerable areas like Todo with Mahito's black flash.

    • @bruhfunny8123
      @bruhfunny8123 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      3:22 The series already establishes that sorcerers grow exponentially and that 80% of a sorcerers worth lies in talent. I dont personally think a training arc would improve the series and it's fun to see characters get over roadblocks mid fight, like Megumi learning domain expansion, or Gojo learning RCT or Mahito understanding the essence of his soul. Growth comes from self understanding and confidence which I think is a very interesting way forward.

    • @bruhfunny8123
      @bruhfunny8123 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      4:14 As I said, the strength of a sorcerer is 80% talent. Both Takaba and Higuruma are prodigies. Higurma has always been referred to as a genius even in flashbacks before he acquired his CT, and his growth stems from his rapid understanding of high level concepts like barrier techniques. He is just really smart and gifted with a good CT. Takaba was gifted with a broken technique and very high output.

    6:12 Your STEM aptitude definitely has a lot of genetic influence. Of course, the point here is that you attend university and then gain knowledge to become, say, an engineer. But what gets you to that point has a lot of genetic influence. This can come in the form of fluid intelligence, grit and contentiousness. Even subject specific skills have genetic components, like math. So you are not going to be the next Euler or Gauss no matter how hard you work, unless you won the genetic lottery. Interestingly, even musical and art talent have heavy genetic influences. Again, not to say you can't learn an instrument without those genes, but your aptitude and learning speed are innate.

    for Cursed energy reinforcement this was also used by todo when he got black flashed by mahito in Shibuya, and you could maybe say hakari with his fight with kashimo
    for binding vows First I think you misspoke for the personal ones as they can be broken at any time with no consequences. personally think most of them are fine like the world cutting slash as binding vows are not weighed on specific situations you are in and that sukuna already had world cutting slash when using the vow. Though the one with the domain is so bull at least for me unless if i missed something. Honestly I think it would of been better if he just got his complete domain back as it was something that was foreshadowed. Also binding vows are used by the hero's a bit during the calling games and by gojo in his domain clashes, yuji and todo also use biding vows for their abilities.
    the power system can get a bit frustrating in a few parts as it feels like a math problem where you have to use a specific formulas you've acquired to be like this is possible using the power system though it feels a bit unsatisfying
    I think most of the other problems is due to jujutsu Kaisens largest problems which is just the pacing and I feel that Gege wanted to put more ideas into the series, but realized that the way he was going the manga would be way to long and probably didnt want to end up like the big 3 authors which slaved away for over a decade.
    Though I really like how you mix some of the positives with the negatives and just don't nitpick hate read. I also like that you seem to understand the series a lot more then most youtubers (cough cough the weeb commander)

    Binding vows should just work 1 for 1 like vows and limitations in hunter x hunter
    And for cursed techniques I think all characters without a heavenly restriction should have a cursed technique that they can theoretically unlock, and that they should not so heavily limit a character's potential. They should be able to do SOMETHING to redeem an otherwise weak CT, like an extension technique, a rules-based domain, or a new facet of their ability if they are creative enough. And for reverse cursed technique, I feel like it should be much more widespread, but with most characters not being able to use it nearly as efficiently as to heal major wounds and keep fighting or one-shot cursed spirits. Those who are already gifted with RCT would look about the same.

    I disagree with your opinion on CT. Using American Football as an example, only 1.6% of college players will become professionals in the NFL. Yes, hard work will take someone incredibly far in Football despite having average genetics. However, as the competition level intensifies, you will come across players who aren’t only hard workers, but innately gifted as well. And those players will outperform them. A good example in JJK is Mei Mei. She’s a grade 1 sorcerer who has worked hard to compensate her CT being a weak point while also strengthening her CT skill. She can hang with a lot of sorcerers, but at the top 1%, her CT holds her back. There being a cap is realistic. Otherwise, if everyone could be strong as Gojo, then there’d be no excuses from our cast struggling to reach the heights of Gojo, Sukuna, Kenjaku, etc.
    You have to view sorcery from the perspective as a sport. It makes sense everyone is going to be capped due to a multitude of reasons like drive, recovery, etc. and that includes innate talent. A great example of a sport in the real world is bodybuilding. While you have to train hard in order to compete at the top level, if you do not have the genetics then you’re not going to be a Mr. Olympia competitor. Doesn’t mean you can’t be a great body builder. It just means you’re most likely not going to hang with the top 1%.

    5:13 I get your point, but I actually like it for that very reason.
    The story continuously addresses this, and it leads to a lot of the conflict regarding Satoru and Suguru (mostly Satoru). "Are you the strongest because you're Satoru Gojo? Or are you Satoru Gojo because you're the strongest?" Basically asking if Satoru is strong because he earned it or if he is being carried by his gifts.
    I also can't say I agree with the comment of "it just doesn't exist in the real world". There are 100% things that other people can perform that neither I nor you will ever be able to perform. Either because they've been physically or mentally gifted. You admit this in the video. Which is why it confuses me you then immediately turn on that point and argue against it? I can understand why you might not like that, but I think the story does a good job at addressing this within the text. It's very self-aware of the power imbalance between certain characters, and it does what it can to write for that as it can (Satoru Gojo being born the strongest, Kasumi Miwa being really weak).

Gojos domain infinite void comes from the occipital lobe because of the 6 eyes and his sure hit is ingrained in his occipital lobe. Sukana noticed this during there fight and replicated it with this binding vow changing the conditions of his domain and using gojos hand sign to form a makeshift 99 second domain from his occipital lobe .

  • @Roman.Noodlw
    @Roman.Noodlw 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I'll try to explain a lot of the issues that you stated. Let me know if it helps:
    1. Cursed Energy is negative energy pooled together, like you said. In the same fashion, positive energy is pooled negative energy. When Gojo discovers his reverse cursed technique, he explains that he was able to create positive energy by multiplying negative energy against itself (Mathematical Example: -2 x -2 = +4) . This also explains why negative energy is contained within the brain, but positive energy is dependent on the the core (stomach area) of the body. The core can "pressure" negative energy into positive energy
    2. Cursed Energy Reinforcement is the simple application of pooling cursed energy onto a specific body part, nothing more. In HunterXHunter, pooling meant additional abilities, but in JJK, there is a slight difference. You can do cursed energy reinforcement anywhere on your body (EX: Todo tanking mahito black flash), but if the cursed energy reinforcement isn't connected to a technique, then there won't be any additional "perks", so to speak. REMEMBER: CURSED TECHNIQUES CAN BE/ARE TYED TO A BODY PART. Todo's ability is an example, even though his verbal misdirection seems to hint at a different case. In the case of sukuna's slashes, if you look closely, the slashing technique is very closely tyed to the limb movement sukuna does.
    Note: The reason why this aspect could seem random is that "most" cursed users tend to develop the reinforcement and cursed technique around the body as a whole, and then whatever major technique they have for specific body parts.
    3. Itadori learning the cursed energy process is honestly no surprise when you look at what we know in the anime. He's a genetically different kid(exponentially stronger than his peers physically) and he's holding sukuna within his body, so there is already some talent with containing a cursed object, let alone controlling the strongest one. In the case for modern culling games players, they are literal prodigies, like actual prodigies. No joke. That's why they're introduced in the first place. Nobody ever complains or compliments miwa and the rest of her class/generation for having solid explanation into their abilities, but they're good scales on how exactly cursed energy is difficult to maintain. Junpei was also supposed to be the unfortunate reenactment of yuta. Even down to how similar they look, junpei had solid beginning abilities that could've possibly been expanded on, especially his cursed energy, but because he was cut off extremely short, this was never realized. Such the tragedy of Junpei.
    4. The whole irl to JJK argument for the cursed technique section is...interesting. Yeah humans aren't completely determined by their genetics, but you have to remember, first of all, this an action anime. Todo is a great example of how a simple technique and physical power and cursed energy control can overpower this "genetics" argument. But if that doesn't convince you, there are specific bloodlines of jujutsu sorcerers for a reason. Megumi? Zenin Clan? Nobara? Hanahaki Clan. Gojo? Literally Gojo Clan. It seems genetically unfair because thats exactly what it is: everybody that is a jujutsu sorcerer is genetically gifted at birth. The characters aren't confused on what technique they might end up with, because they're usually determined at birth.
    5. Binding Vows are stupid, but I'll just say this: it's important to think of binding vows as a promise to redistribution, not a restriction. Like with Nanami, he's not giving up cursed energy, he is simply redistributing it within himself within this sort of "container" vow that he can use for later. Same with Hakari. In the case of Sukuna, apparently he can just break this container when he wants to. At the very least, we'd have to assume that because he broke the binding vow, whatever positive plus that came from is no longer available, even if sukuna had already used it once.

    For the genetic point in the show where geto in hidden inventory fights that dude in the hallway to say he didn't train as hard as everyone is just dishonest he absolutely slammed that cursed user in hand to hand combat and for gojo there's always going to be genetically gifted freaks who are good at what they without needing to train as hard as everyone else like Shaq most dominant basketball player at the time but he didn't need to work as hard as someone like Kobe and had a higher peak than him without it but you wouldn't say Shaq didn't train at all he was still training just not as much as some others and genetics play a HUGE role in real day-to-day life whether it be for dating or getting a job if 2 applicants have identical resumes but one is handsome and 6'0 you're gonna want them more than someone who is 5'5 with a receding hairline. And while yes in real life it's possible to over come some genetic disadvantages that's also because there's so many jobs how many deaf people in the world become musicians while some are able to become well gifted in it it's gonna be immensely harder to be gifted at music than some with even regular hearing and there are examples of this in JJK like Kusakabe who is widely considered the strongest 1st Grade Sorcerer with no cursed technique on purely studying and hard work. And it even makes sense why people like him and miwa don't have a ct story wise you have to be sort of insane to be a sorcerer and out of all the character in the show those 2 are the most mentally stable and regular so thematically it makes sense gojo ct while making him the strongest is also symbolism as his infinity shows the infinite gap between him and the rest of jujutsu society with only a select few not seeing him as a weapon and as a human. For Nanami his 7:3 ratio makes sense as you have to be precise just like you would have to be as a stockbroker always being dilligent and decisive, and even with someone like Kenjaku his personality of being a master at manipulating people makes sense as his ct literally takes over old bodies. There abilites most of the time match there personality.

    So lots of thoughts.
    JJK has a lot of choices that go against common tropes in Shonen.
    There is no concept of the power of friendship in JJK. Being more selfish and being your true self is what makes you stronger and that's why Sukuna is so absurd power wise.
    Also unlike other Shonen where characters work their way to the top via training arcs in JJK your aptitude for Jujutsu is 80% innate talent. This is not referring to just your curse technique this is referring to your entire potential to use Jujutsu. Kusakabe is more talented than Nanami despite the former not having a curse technique. This fully means that only around 20% of your Jujutsu ability comes from hard work. You're either born with the talent and can foster it or you aren't.
    The varying types of cursed energy reinforcement are used often even. Nanami uses cursed energy to protect your soul so Mahito couldn't kill him in their first fight. Yuji describes Yuta's curse energy reinforcement like smacking a water tank because he has so much it makes every attack decisive and it makes hitting him more damaging for yourself and there's more examples of it.
    Positive energy isn't really native to the world and the only way to make it is to Convert cursed energy into positive energy. This says something about the world of JJK that and it's a very intentional choice.
    Lastly from where the narrative has gone cursed spirits aren't really relevant anymore. They are all such small fry compared to how powerful the important characters are now.

    aight, I agree with you on the overall concept, Gege has admitted he makes things along as he goes, he said that he added black flash because he wanted yuji to have a cool finishing move but didn't want it to be unique to him. But your individual arguments are things I disagree on
    2:12 Cursed energy reinforcement is constantly being used in general its just half the time we dont see it, but it is mentioned a lot of times, for example when yuji and nanami were looking at the traces of mahito, or when Todo was fighting Hanami and he came to the split second decision not to use cursed energy reinforcement, divergent fist as a concept, when todo was fighting mahito and channelled all the cursed energy to his stomach to block the punch, and in the same fight Yuji said he'd channel all his cursed energy into his fist and even did a jajanken stance, which is a clear reference, it's used frequently just not stated every time.
    I disagree with you on development, yuji gets basic cursed energy manipulation, but his manipulation is bad so it causes divergent fist, Nanami even took a jab at yuji's proficiency with cursed energy in the looking at traces of mahito scene I mentioned before, Yuji trained with todo and learnt how to land a black flash and got good manipulation and stopped using divergent fist, then after landing a black flash understanding cursed energy more because thats just what black flash does, then learns how to use divergent fist manually in the fight with mahito. His progression is streamlined and makes sense, Higurama's technique gave him a free domain expansion, which is the pinnacle of jujutsu, he then used reverse engineering to figure out everything else which logistically makes sense, takaba isn't a jujutsu genius though he just has a technique.
    5:40 normally I would agree with you because usually its just an excuse for the mc and main villain to be stronger than the rest of the cast, but in jjk the unfairness in the power system is the basis of the story and it's intrinsic to many characters such as Gojo, Geto, Toji, Maki, Mai Kyoto Noritoshi Kamo etc. The entire plot of jjk and many of the characters literally wouldn't work if the power system was fair, and there are other comments explaining why there is imbalance in the first place.
    Cursed tools point I somewhat agree with.
    Binding vows are iffy, but Hakari has been explained in other comments, Sukuna we have to wait for.
    I completely agree with your final point, I think its stupid how the protaganists barely use binding vows in comparison to Sukuna and villains.

    Binding vows are the dumbest thing in jjk, in my opinion. Nanami's overtime makes him use less cursed energy when he's working and allows him to use more when he's working overtime. It's not a binding vow. It's just saving cursed energy for when he enters overtime. Hakari is giving up an arm to protect the rest of his body, isn't a binding vow either, he just has less area to protect with the same amount of cursed energy. The only true examples of binding vows are the ones that kenjaku and sukuna make because it is changing conditions. Sukuna had to change how he used the world cutting slash because he had to use both his hands. Now, he has to use a chant while pointing, which makes it more obvious but allows him to keep using it. My opinion is that binding vows shouldn't be giving something up. It should be permanently changing how something has to be used.(I've never read the jjk manga. Sorry if I got the last part wrong, but I'm going off examples I've seen or heard)
    TL;DR, binding vows is just common sense, and the only real binding vows are from sukuna and kenjaku

Gege doesn't show you stuff right away you need to think. I know it's Hard to base your videos other than redditors and reddit but reading manga and thinking about it can be fun : )

    Hey im a big fan, remember when you made a video of saying "demonslayer is mid"? it was nice.
    how about you make a video about demonslayer reaching 9.9 rating in imbd,and other anime sites,also mention the awards of having the best animation, character popularity,story production,most paid manga and film in Japan approximately 38 bilion yen.
    because your kinda biased no wonder your channel will forever stay in 69 subs,i'll forever stay as a mid channel.

    I agree, but you do a poor explaninsion of why this power system is half baked. If you want a well developed, consistent and explored power systems watch HXH and World Trigger.
    even Fullmetal is more consistent.

    Thanks for the upload. I’m really enjoying JJK content right now. I'm very excited to see how the ending of JJK plays out. Thanks, again for the upload. Keep up the good work.
    Will you go to Heaven when you die? Here’s a quick test: Have you ever lied, stolen, or used God’s name in vain? Jesus said, whoever looks with lust has already committed adultery in their heart. If you have done these things, God sees you as a lying, thieving, blasphemous, adulterer at heart, and the Bible warns that one day God will punish you in a terrible place called Hell. But God is not willing that any should perish. Sinners broke God’s Law and Jesus paid their fine. This means that God can legally dismiss their case: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Then Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death. Today, repent and trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life as a free gift. Then read the Bible daily and obey it. God will never fail you.
