now that i think about it mahito making all his effort to weaken Yuji's SOUL is so telling and maybe a hugeeeeeee easter egg to show how strong his soul is. mahito may realize that Yuji's physical strength/durability and stamina can't be weakened even after hours and hours of being in fights in Shibuya. so excited to see Yuji in action again in 239 my boyyyy will prevailll
Trueee considering Sukuna had to "weaken" Megumi's soul to properly take over his body, maybe Yuji's soul is just so damn strong he is able to maintain control by just overpowering Sukuna.
@@seadee2834 waiiiiitttt imagine Yuji‘s soul being equal to Sukuna’s ??? Would explain why he could be his vessel and why suku can’t overpower his body.. we heard from Mahito that Sukunas soul is on a wholeee different level 🫣🫣
I think Yuji's physical strength and durability is so high and natural that he can use pure skill to make up the differencces in power with mahito and then that plus being able to dmg his soul just makes mahito his most afraid opp
Only reason why mahito can even keep up with yuji is because he plays little tricks with humans and so on. Mahito at full power vs yuji full power mahito getting his ass beat
When you say Yuji Is just not controlling his ce that well cause he’s still feeling depressed by the end of it I personally only think he truly lost control when nobara died, after that he’s hitting black flashes and he’s in the zone, full intent on redemption for his sins and weakness, he still blames himself and depressed, but what makes Yuji so strong is the capability to take that burden and continue moving forward (like guts), and Yuji doesn’t deny his emotions he doesn’t become a husk of a person, I personally think because he has such a big heart and cares so much this suffering he’s feeling his ce growing and growing compared to someone who just accepts that way of life and it just doesn’t effect them, that’s not Yuji, he can care for anybody without having to know them as said by namami. Someone like him was bound to suffer in the jjk verse ,, but if it’s pain, Yuji won’t stop. We’re soon to see the real strongest
@@Blitz_maniac no.... i don't think that correlates lol.... i'm just saying making up an emotional monologue ass backstory, as an observer, of a piece of entertainment, that someone else wrote, is fucking weird. It's not even a prediction, the guy is acting like a fucking shonen thar just screamed the exposition at the main antagonist. You're probably the type of dude who practices screaming your special move into you mirror while your mom isn't looking.
I think not many people understand this, but Higuruma would be an even worse opponent for him. The judgeman domain would literally oneshot Mahito with just confiscation, because his soul is so transfigured that it has to be kept in one piece by his technique constantly. This is why simple domains expanded within his body destroy his soul. Technique confiscation would have an even worse effect.
I think theyre more so relative if anything, there are a few things that you may have overlooked that make mahito a bit more impressive. For one the first fight mahito has is against nanami where they're pretty even base to base. Mahito then in the fight against yuji in season 1 he seperates yuji from nanami and beats nanami immediately almost killing him if yuji didnt show back up. Nanami is then compared to yuji directly atleast in striking strength in early shibuy long before he gets his mental state broken down. Mahito after getting his domain destroyed and almost being killed by sukuna makes it his life's mission to make yuji miserable because of how much he hates him, so while making him weaker is part of why mahito uses transfigured humans its more so his hate for yuji that makes him use it. While resolve is also very important yuji only really starts developing it after shibuya, so even with yuji before his breakdown wouldnt be on the level as he was after shibuya. Choso even substantiates this saying he became way stronger than he previously was.Mahito also takes 2 black flashes to the face both off guard since yuji teleports in front of him. Even with the barrage he gets from yuji in the early part of the shibuya fight thats accompanied by a direct soul hit from nobara and him almost dying to that is very comparable to the barrage yuji recieved after nobara's death so they can both kill eachother that way. Lastly yuji does get amps when he's enraged, something meguna learnt personally and unlike the meguna fight he is in a stable enough state to use black flash so itsnotall mental nerfs.
Start of shibuya yuji is def compared to nanami no question but he goes through 2 fights which we know yuji gets stronger insanely quickly from fighting (goodwill is kinda all about this) As for his hatred of yuji I think this works in tandem with his need to kill him rather than holding him back. Mahito definitely wants to see yuji suffer 100% but I think he wants to kill him more than anything else give he’s his “mortal enemy” Yuji’s black flashes also happen after he’s taken a massive beating and is (if taken as true) at 10% so I don’t see them as anywhere near as strong as a full power black flash. As for yuji being amped vs Meguna, I’m going to make a video on that because that situation is vastly different, that amp is about a conformation to Sukuna’s ideals and a pure single mindedness and desire rather than just “oh he mad fr” it’s symbolised by his eyes becoming like Sukuna’s and it’s a massive thing that only happens there and then (this is why Sukuna is so surprised since he’s never see this before)
@@CursedValor the only thing I'd say with the black flash is that they do restore you, so much so that mahito after he lands one on todo is immediately able to use his ct after it gets drained by domain expansion. Similar thing happens with gojo in the recent chapters. Agree with about everything else doh.
@@CursedValorYeah people overlook the importance of Yujis amp against Meguna, and also assume it was momentary, which doesn’t make sense. Anger did play a role in it, but he was only consumed with Rage for a short amount of time before becoming lucid enough to engage Sukuna in conversation. His raw power exploded after seeing Hanna be thrown off the building, you can see in Yujis face he’s in pure shock. You can also see the moment weight of his emotions hit him when he locks eyes with Sukuna. In that moment, and the moment he’s screaming Sukunas name, damn near foaming at the mouth, that was Yuji completely overcome with pain, rage, and most importantly, HATE. After Meguna tells Yuji that basically the weak deserve to suffer and that they exist to be chewed up, his response to of “try chewing up me and my suffering” before walking through Megunas Barrage of attacks sets in stone that even though he was nerfed, this wasn’t just Megumi saving Yuji by lowering his output on megunas technique. It was Yuji showing Meguna that he was willing to do anything to bring him down. Yuji didn’t know Sukuna couldn’t use his technique at full strength even after the first didn’t kill him. He was under the impression from the moment he attacked him that he’d likely die. He simply didn’t care, and that single minded drive and focus to achieve his goal of putting Meguna in a golden joint is what basically doubled his physical stats. We also see in a more recent chapter that Yuji is still on the same kinda time; saying “I’ll eat anything to kill that creep” If Yuji doesn’t kill Sukuna it better be bc he died trying, no one else deserves that body more than him idc who the strongest in the verse is
yeah i agree 100% black flash restores you in terms of like CE output but I personally would adamantly deny it healing you in anyway or giving you an influx of new cursed energy (it would however improve your manipulation to the point it may seem that way though but that stuff is kinda permanent so it would not change too much imo)
I think the power of faith is a thing in JJK by that I mean I think an important part of cursed energy control and becoming a strong sorcerer is to have faith in your self and your abilities to succeed think about it how could someone have the resolve to achieve something if they don't have the faith that they can achieve it.
In terms of who’s stronger/who wins, here’s my breakdown of stats/skill/exp based on time and context. Shibuya- Physical stats: Yuji H2H combat Skills: Yuji Hard Battle IQ: Yuji Situational Battle IQ: Mahito (*Hard Battle iq is directly combat related, situational includes outside of the specific fight like planning out maneuvers multiple steps ahead. The two go together but I split them up for the sake of clarity later*) Durability: Mahito via hax Individual AP: Mahito Combined AP: Yuji (Mahito can hit harder individually but Yuji is better at setting up combos giving their fighting style.) Hax: Mahito Hax defense: Yuji Versatility: Mahito Mental stability: Mahito. Experience: Mahito via how fast he learns. He was born not long after Yuji ate Sukunas finger, maybe even slightly before. Score- Yuji-5, Mahito-6. (This includes Mahitos true form, that power up only changes the difference between their stats not what stats he’s superior in). In my mind if Yuji had came into the fight at 100% mentally and didn’t have the mental baggage he did; he could have won but just as easily could have lost. Now if Mahito fought current Yuji, he’d either have to start off in his true form or instantly use domain expansion to not get blitzed and one tapped. Even without Sukuna Yuji can attack the soul, and it’s possible to protect your soul from Mahito by surrounding and reinforcing it with CE, which Yuji isn’t outright stated to be able to do but contextually absolutely can. Mahitos only win condition against current Yuji is his domain expansion, and even then Yuji was halfway to him when he used a .2 second DE in shibuya. He may still get blitzed, and his true form would at best allow him to box with Yuji for a while before getting folded. Yujis so much physically stronger than he was in shibuya that to me Mahito wouldn’t be much of an issue for him anymore he’s got way bigger ops now. As for Yujis mental state in their fault, todo didn’t cure his depression, but Yuji was absolutely trying after he arrived. Todos speech was meant to reassure Yuji that he WASNT alone. That THEY are an exception, telling Yuji that the search for meaning in death can defile the memories of those he’s lost, those who gave him their final words. that as long as he is alive they will never be defeated, and it would shame them if he died here with those words. Most importantly, he asks Yuji *what have you been entrusted with? You don’t need to answer me now, but until you can, you need to stand and fight* Yujis fire had been reduced to a tiny ember, about to be snuffed out by Mahito. That speech, and that question, blew gentle air into that ember and it relit a small flame. That small flame is what Yuji had for a good part of the fight after that. When Mahito cast his domain and todo lost his arm, he entrusts the rest of the fight to Yuji, who knows that, and will not let his brother down. It’s not stated, but to me that’s why he was able to land that final black flash. He knew what he had been entrusted with, his own life, his ally’s final moments, and life of both todo and the rest of those in Shibuya. If Mahito killed them, no one else we know of in shibuya had the ability to bypass Mahitos Hax. He’d kill everyone he found, then no one could unseal Gojo. He may not have been ok mentally, but neither am I and I can tell he was LOCKED IN Yuji knew he HAD to land that black flash, and that it had to be in that moment or it was over for everyone he cares about. Todo tricking Mahito to give Yuji an opening wasn’t necessary for him to have landed that black flash and I 100% believe it would have one shot Mahito regardless of the opening. Todo tricking Mahito at the last second was the reminder to Yuji that he’s not alone, even now that he can’t fight by his side. To me it was more thematic and a symbolic gesture than needed for Yuji to land the black flash.
good breakdown! My video was an old script as of current i wouldnt be so harsh on mahito (although i'd still conclude yuji was stronger without the mental drain) I just wanted to settle this idea that someone yuji was nothing compared to mahito and that mahito was like Yuta tier which blew my mind and made me question reality. Then again I'm a yuji stan so what do I know!
@@CursedValor I’m a Yuji Stan myself and unfortunately I 100% see where you’re coming from. Somehow, despite being one of the coldest JJK characters in every major fight, So many fans see him as fodder. Thankfully not as many people hype up Mahito anymore now that attacking the soul isn’t an exclusively Yuji thing. I see people who think that Current Yuji is fodder to Mahito, and not even top 15 in the verse. Like idk how, but mfs really sleep on Yuji bc he has hands in a verse full of hax. He’s one of the very few characters who’ve shown relativity to Maki in any physical way, and Yuji does in every capacity, he’s shown speed and AP that would let him 1 tap jogo, and he’s one of 3 people who have fought Sukuna past 15 fingers and survived. Yes he had his cursed energy output nerfed but that only applied specifically to his cursed technique when he would try to use it on Yuji or maki. Ppl think that somehow Megunas body had only 10% of its power and kept up with Maki, much less her and Yuji, but those people can’t read apparently so their opinions don’t count. Moral of the story Invest in Yuji stocks
I think Yuji was artificially given a heavenly restriction at birth with the inherent cursed technique of soul manipulation or some sort of evolution of kenjaku's CT. He was probably just going to be a worse Toji/Maki but was then marinated in the most potent cursed energy, sukuna, for a prolonged period of time. This allowed him to have the physical strength/durability of a HR'd person but now with cursed energy. But, Sukuna actively suppressed all CT from Yuji to include the Dismantle/Cleave he *should've* had plus the (likely but unconfirmed) soul CT, so Yuji was able to just solely develop and master cursed energy manipulation. At that point he's a mini-Toji but with insane Cursed Energy mastery. THEN Sukuna dips out of his body and we see the un-supressed Yuji emerge as (as you noted in the most recent video) a one man army with likely an expanded cursed energy pool now because his inherent CE system was likely rebooted from the constant flow of Sukuna's CE. Now he's almost certainly developed his usage of CT. So a worse Toji (Artifical HR) + a worse Six Eyes User (Insane CE Manipulation) + Sukuna CE + likely Soul Manip and Cleave/Dismantle. He's going to be a combination of slightly nerfed versions of all 3 of the peaks of jujutsu sorcery with a Soul based CT. Yuji has the potential of being the most insane sorcerer we've ever seen esp with his understanding of mentality and following his beliefs we've seen him develop. The only thing i lack evidence on is the Heavenly Restriction, but isn't it weird how freakishly strong Yuji was at the beginning of the series? Like something is clearly going on there
As Kenjaku said. Humanity's future lies in Optimizing Curse energy. Gojo said, a sorcerers strength is usually 80% Their tech...most sorcerer's are glass cannons in that regard or they simply specialize. Sukuna is the old version of an optimized body but he gave up humanity and transcended curses to do it. Yuji is simply fucking evolved. Yuji is the upgrade.
Bro forgot that regular therapists have an IQ between 120 to 180 and take years of school to help depression. While Todo has an IQ (self proclaimed) of 53000, hence he probably received a PhD in psychotherapy between panels LMAO
Dr valor?👋 I’m having a bit of trouble on this JJK homework. Mahito got down too 40%, then get nerfed too 8% cause of the 80-20 split and finally got black flashed after a domain while Yuji took little too no damage. Don’t u think at that point when Mahito realised the true nature of his soul he became stronger than Yuji since he should have a lower percentage while Yuji’s resolve only increased? Wouldn’t that invalidate your argument?
The 80-20 split reformed back to 40 afterward, they didn’t stay separated.(chapter 129 mahito says “you underestimated me!” And you can see him reforming both splits into one)
@@CursedValor Looked back and hey you’re right. I read that fight multiple times just assuming Yuji killed it. Hey then I agree with everything u said. Appreciate the help Dr Valor.🙂
Don't know how everyones glossing over the fact that Mahito couldn't use his idle transfiguration or domain against Yuji because he had Sukuna inside of him. All he would've had to do is just touch Yuji or put him in a domain.
Now that im finished this video you analyze this entire fight as some sort of Dragonball fight. Its jjk, Yuji is more durable and physically stronger. Cool, Cursed Technique and Domain is nearly everything. It doesn't matter how hard Yuji punches if he doesn't have sukuna and he gets touched once hes dead. If he gets put in Mahitos domain hes dead. Hes not far stronger, He just had Sukuna which forced him into a more favourable hand to hand fight.
Its like saying Tojo is Stronger than Gojo just because hes more physically stronger durable and faster, but who had the literal one shot technique that settled the fight. It was Gojo.
You may not have read JJK as well as you think. Nanami literally protected his soul using cursed energy subconsciously, Yuji doesn’t need Sukuna to do that. The only thing Mahito can’t use is his DE as it would entrench on Sukuna’s territory, which would result in him getting attacked again. The new chapters are also hinting at Yuji’s CT to be soul swapping so one thing is clear. Yuji claps Mahito with or without Sukuna LMAO
Mahito being able to scale to Yuta is crazy. Yuta should basically negative diff Mahito since he put the beats on Yuji so bad that Yuji thought Yuta would scale to 15 Finger Sukuna. This is ignoring how Mahito would probably get exploded by Reversed Cursed Technique and be rendered unable to heal. Okkotsu-dono could probably fight all Disaster Curses at the same time and win a Domain Clash, with all of them.
Mahito would scale to yuta, would obviously lose but it aint a neg diff Yuji's words are straight bullshit about yuta beating 15F 1v4 the disasters i doubt it First and foremost, 4 surehit vs 1 No way yuta's surehit even cancels any of them Besides, gege stated jogo and Mahito would be a difficult fight for kenjaku in a 1v1 The dude who doesn't even need to actually kill them cuz if they get weaker he can absorb them Has a hard battle 1v1? Yuta aint winning 1v4 and its gonna be a good fight even 1v1 with mahito's hax or jogo's speed and attack power
Yuji in the current chapters probably just one shot mahito without even looking at him. My boi fought 15f sukuna and was strong as him(ofc sukuna without ct but you get what i mean)
@@alperenoktay5157 not only ct, as maki is equal to toji who is comparable to 3F sukuna And maki manages to match this sukuna that is heavily nerfed by megumi in all aspects
i hate the mahito down play. without interference from Sukuna (no idle transfiguration), Todo's clutch clap-swapping, and Nobara's resonance, yuji would have died SEVERAL TIMES AGAINST MAHITO. and dont forget Mahito existed as a curse for just a few months. imagine a fully experienced mahito 😭😭
Curse spirits, even disaster curse spirits, aren't on the same level as top-tier human sorcerers. And yuji has the potential to be top tier. The only thing above a top tier human sorcerer is a human sorcerer who began to transcend their humanity and become something more than a human or a curse spirit; sukuna is an example of this. The four disaster curses deserved the death they received, to be overpowered and defeated by a being that began as a human and not a spirit.
Mahito isn't being downplayed, you're still downplaying yuji. He says a few times, if he messes up once, he's dead. Yuji is INSANE my man. With or without sukuna, yuji is weird and would definitely still feel his soul.
I think it was pretty obvious by the fact that Todo and Yuji were going 2v1 with Mahito that Yuji would not be able to win on his own. In fact that decisive blow was landed purely on a fakeout that Todo's technique might work when it wouldn't
Is it though, throughout the fight Mahito resorted to tricks and moral blows in order to weaken Yuuji and Mahito even states Yuuji could even kill him in one hit.
@@joecroft4274 was Gojo vs Sukuna a 1v1 even with Sukuna using Mahoraga and Agito? I would say no meaning that I also believe that Mahito using countless transfigured humans means its not a simple “2v1” but if you think that the Gojo vs Sukuna fight was a simple “1v1” then I think this discussion would go nowhere
@@YungFozz I'd say gojo v sukuna was a 1v1. 1 sorcerer using their sorcery vs another lone sorcerer. You wouldn't count gojo's hidden blue as making it a 2v2 would you? This was a 2v1 as it was 2 sorcerers using their sorcery against 1 cursed spirit who used their sorcery.
wait if srcery is controlled by emotions yuji is gonna see all the people he loves die by the hands sukuna and get so enraged that he unlocks Domain Expansion:Left Right Goodnight and then he hits sukuna 2 times and the third one is goodnight for sukuna
that is stated but its time specific, the statement is if yuji did not land THAT black flash he would have died which yeah obviously bro was tired and basically dead on his feet, had like 2% of his soul left. the point of the video is that yuji was stronger but circumstances made it an exceptionally difficult fight.
You're flat out wrong about a simple conversation being able to turn the tide of depression. You'd do well to not generalize experiences based on your own anecdotal examples.
now that i think about it mahito making all his effort to weaken Yuji's SOUL is so telling and maybe a hugeeeeeee easter egg to show how strong his soul is. mahito may realize that Yuji's physical strength/durability and stamina can't be weakened even after hours and hours of being in fights in Shibuya. so excited to see Yuji in action again in 239 my boyyyy will prevailll

Natural? His strength and durability is definitely not natural
Yuji’s hidden cursed technique after “Left Right Goodnight” is actually his “Super Sick Dropkick”
Left Right Goodnight is his domain expansion

Interesting! I can definitely see faith in oneself having an effect on their power, I can’t imagine self doubt being positive in any scenario.
I never thought about the importance of the control over CE before you pointed out Kashimo's fight he used nothing other then CE and almost won fight.
In terms of who’s stronger/who wins, here’s my breakdown of stats/skill/exp based on time and context.
Shibuya-
Physical stats: Yuji
H2H combat Skills: Yuji
Hard Battle IQ: Yuji
Situational Battle IQ: Mahito
(*Hard Battle iq is directly combat related, situational includes outside of the specific fight like planning out maneuvers multiple steps ahead. The two go together but I split them up for the sake of clarity later*)
Durability: Mahito via hax
Individual AP: Mahito
Combined AP: Yuji
(Mahito can hit harder individually but Yuji is better at setting up combos giving their fighting style.)
Hax: Mahito
Hax defense: Yuji
Versatility: Mahito
Mental stability: Mahito.
Experience: Mahito via how fast he learns. He was born not long after Yuji ate Sukunas finger, maybe even slightly before.
Score- Yuji-5, Mahito-6. (This includes Mahitos true form, that power up only changes the difference between their stats not what stats he’s superior in).
In my mind if Yuji had came into the fight at 100% mentally and didn’t have the mental baggage he did; he could have won but just as easily could have lost.
Now if Mahito fought current Yuji, he’d either have to start off in his true form or instantly use domain expansion to not get blitzed and one tapped. Even without Sukuna Yuji can attack the soul, and it’s possible to protect your soul from Mahito by surrounding and reinforcing it with CE, which Yuji isn’t outright stated to be able to do but contextually absolutely can.

Yujis so much physically stronger than he was in shibuya that to me Mahito wouldn’t be much of an issue for him anymore he’s got way bigger ops now.
As for Yujis mental state in their fault, todo didn’t cure his depression, but Yuji was absolutely trying after he arrived.
Todos speech was meant to reassure Yuji that he WASNT alone. That THEY are an exception, telling Yuji that the search for meaning in death can defile the memories of those he’s lost, those who gave him their final words. that as long as he is alive they will never be defeated, and it would shame them if he died here with those words.
Most importantly, he asks Yuji *what have you been entrusted with? You don’t need to answer me now, but until you can, you need to stand and fight*
Yujis fire had been reduced to a tiny ember, about to be snuffed out by Mahito. That speech, and that question, blew gentle air into that ember and it relit a small flame.
That small flame is what Yuji had for a good part of the fight after that. When Mahito cast his domain and todo lost his arm, he entrusts the rest of the fight to Yuji, who knows that, and will not let his brother down.
It’s not stated, but to me that’s why he was able to land that final black flash. He knew what he had been entrusted with, his own life, his ally’s final moments, and life of both todo and the rest of those in Shibuya. If Mahito killed them, no one else we know of in shibuya had the ability to bypass Mahitos Hax. He’d kill everyone he found, then no one could unseal Gojo. He may not have been ok mentally, but neither am I and I can tell he was LOCKED IN
Yuji knew he HAD to land that black flash, and that it had to be in that moment or it was over for everyone he cares about. Todo tricking Mahito to give Yuji an opening wasn’t necessary for him to have landed that black flash and I 100% believe it would have one shot Mahito regardless of the opening.
Todo tricking Mahito at the last second was the reminder to Yuji that he’s not alone, even now that he can’t fight by his side. To me it was more thematic and a symbolic gesture than needed for Yuji to land the black flash.
good breakdown! My video was an old script as of current i wouldnt be so harsh on mahito (although i'd still conclude yuji was stronger without the mental drain) I just wanted to settle this idea that someone yuji was nothing compared to mahito and that mahito was like Yuta tier which blew my mind and made me question reality.
Then again I'm a yuji stan so what do I know!
@@CursedValor I’m a Yuji Stan myself and unfortunately I 100% see where you’re coming from. Somehow, despite being one of the coldest JJK characters in every major fight, So many fans see him as fodder. Thankfully not as many people hype up Mahito anymore now that attacking the soul isn’t an exclusively Yuji thing.
I see people who think that Current Yuji is fodder to Mahito, and not even top 15 in the verse. Like idk how, but mfs really sleep on Yuji bc he has hands in a verse full of hax.
He’s one of the very few characters who’ve shown relativity to Maki in any physical way, and Yuji does in every capacity, he’s shown speed and AP that would let him 1 tap jogo, and he’s one of 3 people who have fought Sukuna past 15 fingers and survived. Yes he had his cursed energy output nerfed but that only applied specifically to his cursed technique when he would try to use it on Yuji or maki. Ppl think that somehow Megunas body had only 10% of its power and kept up with Maki, much less her and Yuji, but those people can’t read apparently so their opinions don’t count.
Moral of the story Invest in Yuji stocks
MY GOAT
Not reading allat 💀💀💀
@@googoonggaoh no another goofy admits they get scared of lots of words you’re so funny
I think Yuji was artificially given a heavenly restriction at birth with the inherent cursed technique of soul manipulation or some sort of evolution of kenjaku's CT. He was probably just going to be a worse Toji/Maki but was then marinated in the most potent cursed energy, sukuna, for a prolonged period of time. This allowed him to have the physical strength/durability of a HR'd person but now with cursed energy. But, Sukuna actively suppressed all CT from Yuji to include the Dismantle/Cleave he *should've* had plus the (likely but unconfirmed) soul CT, so Yuji was able to just solely develop and master cursed energy manipulation.
At that point he's a mini-Toji but with insane Cursed Energy mastery. THEN Sukuna dips out of his body and we see the un-supressed Yuji emerge as (as you noted in the most recent video) a one man army with likely an expanded cursed energy pool now because his inherent CE system was likely rebooted from the constant flow of Sukuna's CE. Now he's almost certainly developed his usage of CT.
So a worse Toji (Artifical HR) + a worse Six Eyes User (Insane CE Manipulation) + Sukuna CE + likely Soul Manip and Cleave/Dismantle. He's going to be a combination of slightly nerfed versions of all 3 of the peaks of jujutsu sorcery with a Soul based CT. Yuji has the potential of being the most insane sorcerer we've ever seen esp with his understanding of mentality and following his beliefs we've seen him develop.
The only thing i lack evidence on is the Heavenly Restriction, but isn't it weird how freakishly strong Yuji was at the beginning of the series? Like something is clearly going on there
This should have more likes
LET HIM COOK 👨🍳👨🍳👨🍳🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Yuji had freak strength before he had sukuna in him.
As Kenjaku said. Humanity's future lies in Optimizing Curse energy. Gojo said, a sorcerers strength is usually 80% Their tech...most sorcerer's are glass cannons in that regard or they simply specialize. Sukuna is the old version of an optimized body but he gave up humanity and transcended curses to do it. Yuji is simply fucking evolved. Yuji is the upgrade.

Your self-sponsorship made me laugh so hard! Sub earned :)
THIS CHAMBER COULDNT CONTAIN THE GAS
It doesn’t say he’ll instantly kill mahito.
I don’t think he would do that. The boy seemed like he wanted to make that cursed spirit *hurt*
Homie had to take that bite during the video lol
Bro forgot that regular therapists have an IQ between 120 to 180 and take years of school to help depression. While Todo has an IQ (self proclaimed) of 53000, hence he probably received a PhD in psychotherapy between panels LMAO
I cant wait for the yuji vs sukana fight! Im so hyped!

does anybody know the background song name?
Dr valor?👋
I’m having a bit of trouble on this JJK homework.
Mahito got down too 40%, then get nerfed too 8% cause of the 80-20 split and finally got black flashed after a domain while Yuji took little too no damage. Don’t u think at that point when Mahito realised the true nature of his soul he became stronger than Yuji since he should have a lower percentage while Yuji’s resolve only increased?
Wouldn’t that invalidate your argument?
The 80-20 split reformed back to 40 afterward, they didn’t stay separated.(chapter 129 mahito says “you underestimated me!” And you can see him reforming both splits into one)
@@CursedValor Looked back and hey you’re right. I read that fight multiple times just assuming Yuji killed it. Hey then I agree with everything u said.
Appreciate the help Dr Valor.🙂
Anytime!
Don't know how everyones glossing over the fact that Mahito couldn't use his idle transfiguration or domain against Yuji because he had Sukuna inside of him. All he would've had to do is just touch Yuji or put him in a domain.
Now that im finished this video you analyze this entire fight as some sort of Dragonball fight. Its jjk, Yuji is more durable and physically stronger. Cool, Cursed Technique and Domain is nearly everything. It doesn't matter how hard Yuji punches if he doesn't have sukuna and he gets touched once hes dead. If he gets put in Mahitos domain hes dead. Hes not far stronger, He just had Sukuna which forced him into a more favourable hand to hand fight.
Its like saying Tojo is Stronger than Gojo just because hes more physically stronger durable and faster, but who had the literal one shot technique that settled the fight. It was Gojo.
@@wokevaloyeah mahito is much stronger than yuji, but yuji was his perfect counter
@wokevalo it seems like yuji had every counter to mahito so yeah in the story he was way way stronger then mahito thank you reiterating that point
You may not have read JJK as well as you think. Nanami literally protected his soul using cursed energy subconsciously, Yuji doesn’t need Sukuna to do that. The only thing Mahito can’t use is his DE as it would entrench on Sukuna’s territory, which would result in him getting attacked again. The new chapters are also hinting at Yuji’s CT to be soul swapping so one thing is clear. Yuji claps Mahito with or without Sukuna LMAO
unrelated but are you scottish?
Mahito being able to scale to Yuta is crazy. Yuta should basically negative diff Mahito since he put the beats on Yuji so bad that Yuji thought Yuta would scale to 15 Finger Sukuna. This is ignoring how Mahito would probably get exploded by Reversed Cursed Technique and be rendered unable to heal. Okkotsu-dono could probably fight all Disaster Curses at the same time and win a Domain Clash, with all of them.
Mahito would scale to yuta, would obviously lose but it aint a neg diff
Yuji's words are straight bullshit about yuta beating 15F
1v4 the disasters i doubt it
First and foremost, 4 surehit vs 1
No way yuta's surehit even cancels any of them
Besides, gege stated jogo and Mahito would be a difficult fight for kenjaku in a 1v1
The dude who doesn't even need to actually kill them cuz if they get weaker he can absorb them
Has a hard battle 1v1?
Yuta aint winning 1v4 and its gonna be a good fight even 1v1 with mahito's hax or jogo's speed and attack power

@@CursedValor ‘this video is sponsored by…. ME!‘ that made me crack a laugh tbh
idc if mahito couldn't use one attack, idle transfiguration to turn him into a meat mush, he still had plenty of brute force ways to win and didn't.
Yuji in the current chapters probably just one shot mahito without even looking at him. My boi fought 15f sukuna and was strong as him(ofc sukuna without ct but you get what i mean)
Sukuna was nerfed at 10% of 15F
1.5F
@@blu3d3vil97 not ce, only ct. This means yuji was on par with sukuna 15f without ct. With %100 output ct, sukuna would have killed yuji in 10 seconds
@@alperenoktay5157 not only ct, as maki is equal to toji who is comparable to 3F sukuna

@@blu3d3vil97 brother, you will be so sad when yuji kill sukuna with that mindset
@@alperenoktay5157 um, i won't
I expect sukuna to get killed eventually
This is THE Shibuya fight
zawg if yuji has ltg mental state he would cook mahito
i hate the mahito down play. without interference from Sukuna (no idle transfiguration), Todo's clutch clap-swapping, and Nobara's resonance, yuji would have died SEVERAL TIMES AGAINST MAHITO. and dont forget Mahito existed as a curse for just a few months. imagine a fully experienced mahito 😭😭
Curse spirits, even disaster curse spirits, aren't on the same level as top-tier human sorcerers. And yuji has the potential to be top tier.
The only thing above a top tier human sorcerer is a human sorcerer who began to transcend their humanity and become something more than a human or a curse spirit; sukuna is an example of this.
The four disaster curses deserved the death they received, to be overpowered and defeated by a being that began as a human and not a spirit.
Mahito isn't being downplayed, you're still downplaying yuji. He says a few times, if he messes up once, he's dead. Yuji is INSANE my man. With or without sukuna, yuji is weird and would definitely still feel his soul.
I think it was pretty obvious by the fact that Todo and Yuji were going 2v1 with Mahito that Yuji would not be able to win on his own. In fact that decisive blow was landed purely on a fakeout that Todo's technique might work when it wouldn't
Is it though, throughout the fight Mahito resorted to tricks and moral blows in order to weaken Yuuji and Mahito even states Yuuji could even kill him in one hit.
Its not a 2v1 though
@@YungFozz it’s very much a 2v1
@@joecroft4274 was Gojo vs Sukuna a 1v1 even with Sukuna using Mahoraga and Agito? I would say no meaning that I also believe that Mahito using countless transfigured humans means its not a simple “2v1” but if you think that the Gojo vs Sukuna fight was a simple “1v1” then I think this discussion would go nowhere
@@YungFozz I'd say gojo v sukuna was a 1v1. 1 sorcerer using their sorcery vs another lone sorcerer. You wouldn't count gojo's hidden blue as making it a 2v2 would you?
This was a 2v1 as it was 2 sorcerers using their sorcery against 1 cursed spirit who used their sorcery.
Bro without Yuji sukuna would be dead.. that kills your whole argument on who is actually stronger lol
less goooo
I mean there were ample opportunitys for mahito to kill yuji. But he clearly wanted to break yuji first
It's hax bias
wait if srcery is controlled by emotions yuji is gonna see all the people he loves die by the hands sukuna and get so enraged that he unlocks Domain Expansion:Left Right Goodnight and then he hits sukuna 2 times and the third one is goodnight for sukuna
Mahito was stronger Gege said if yuji didn’t hit the black flash mahito would have won the fight
that is stated but its time specific, the statement is if yuji did not land THAT black flash he would have died which yeah obviously bro was tired and basically dead on his feet, had like 2% of his soul left. the point of the video is that yuji was stronger but circumstances made it an exceptionally difficult fight.
Ok, one thing I'm going to say about your videos is that you over explain things... Sorry, just an observation
I still think mahito is stronger
Choso wins against Yuji. Mahito wins against Choso. Mahito wins against Yuji.
You're flat out wrong about a simple conversation being able to turn the tide of depression. You'd do well to not generalize experiences based on your own anecdotal examples.
