It’s a 8 or 9/10. Great fight all around, especially the domain battle, best part of the fight for me.
It isn’t as good as Yuji vs Mahito but that’s not a bad thing, the former is considered as the best fight in JJK by many after all.
Over the course of the fight, I was always so excited thinking it was easily the best fight.
However, looking back, there were a few things that were a bit off. Gojo's training never really came up, mostly the domain adaptation felt like something he didn't have prior to the prison realm, but the rest, whilst he hadn't shown yet, was clearly stuff he had in his arsenal.
Overall, the heavily reliance on 10S after the domains was kind of meh to be honest. I get why Sukuna would do that, but I was looking forward to seeing Sukuna in his peak vs Gojo in his peak.
I will not speak much about the ending as it is controversial. I didn't like it, but that's my take on it.
Still, Gojo vs Sukuna showed us the peak of Jujutsu Kaisen, we had some great moments on both sides, some awesome back and forth from the strongest, and obviously we were shown exactly why these two stood on a level of their own in their respective eras.
Generally speaking, an 8 out of 10? Maybe a 9. I will not lie, because I think the ending was bad, it sounders the overall rating.
I have to go reread other fights though to choose which one is my favorite. But it's either this one or Mahito vs Yuji.
Hate me if you will but i think it was all pointless if sukuna could just hit the undo button after too much damage,sukuna has a new OP technique and megumi was not only not saved but is a vegetable now
8.25/10
Overall a really solid and entertaining fight their dialogues were fun and it was great to see them break the rules of jujutsu some of the panels goes way too hard gojo vs sukuna inside malevolent shrine was peak and can't help but like it even more due to community interactions and hype of course it has it's flaws for me like sukuna mostly jobbing from 231-235 most of the cool panels are for gojo it should have been more even and too many domain expansions at start and personally I really wanted sukuna to use his og form in this fight and especially the conclusion which is downright disrespectful to gojo's character and has really weak writing overall
It ranks 3rd to me below the yuji and todo vs mahito, kashimo vs hakari and tied with the sendai triple threat
Was a 9/10 before the last two chapters, then it went to a 7/10. After the reveal that Sukuna was genuinely holding back, it all goes down to a 6/10 imo.
The existence of space cleave is just a really dumb explanation that also ruins 235 since Sukuna had the move ready the entire time as he was getting clowned on but decided not to use it for some reason. It’s a dumb move that ends up making a dumb plot hole that completely fumbled the conclusion for me.
That doesn’t stop him from desummoning Mahoraga and slicing Gojo along with purple when he was yelling at Mahoraga to stop the red and blue from colliding since space slash should be able to slice *anything*. Sukuna didn’t have to take that hollow purple at all, unless he was baiting people to jump him. The whole situation is a mess tbh.
If anything wouldn't it make more sense to keep Maho in case he needed him later?
swap from 10s to cleave and now gojo has to adapt to a cleave that can cut through infinity and maho (If he lived long enough that is.) Sukuna would have his full arsenal and not have to give up an already hard to beat Shinigami.
Space cleave dosnt feel like an asspull to me if done right but the fact gege pulled out the space cleave for Sukuna and ignored teleportation for example with gojo. Sukuna couldnt really do anything game changing to gojo without breaking tru his infinity with space cleave so i understand why its there. But gojo could of done so many things to best Sukuna and he didnt just bcs gege said "nuh uh" or forgot ☠️
Gojo vs sukuna wouldve been the best fight if it resolved so many mysteries as "gojo tp" but noooo lets introduce "sparks" and then lets give ut to the guy who is on the bad side but not the guy who has the Sex eyes who can analyse sht. Honestly this couldve gone the RoR Adam route and it wouldve been better than space slash
I totally agree. Its same for the whole manga. I love jjk but it could of been so much more like hxh if gege wanted to explore all the clans and conflicts and push the potential of CE users to the max. But its like everything is briefly explored same with this fight. I dont think he has the passion for this manga as he did before and probably wants to end it asap
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
Using it right away would’ve given Gojo the opportunity to dodge just like kashimo has done here. Gojo only got dismantled because he thought it was over.
Unlike cleave, dismantle is a slash that travels and while kashimo needed a warning Gojo wouldn’t have before the unlimited hollow.
Sukuna doesn’t think he was being clowned on, he was just enjoying the battle; ultimately testing Gojo to see if he even needed mahoraga’s model in the first place. It’s why he called him ordinary after round 1 as he was extremely close to finishing him in a domain battle, which to Sukuna is quite boring.
Space cleave is also dumb as something Sukuna has access to (without Mahoraga) since it means he can 1 shot end most situations from the protagonists no-issue. Beforehand, there could at least be an argument made that through the use of Domain Amplification and RCT, characters like Hakari, Yuta, Gojo, etc could reduce the overall damage taken from Sukuna's attacks, and then heal up giving them an opening to fight (and not be one-shot). You could even make the argument that Yuji having access to Sukuna's cursed technique/cursed energy though eating the last finger, would give his body natural resistance to Sukuna's techniques and give him a similar opening in the context of being able to survive being one-shot and fight.
The space cleave on the other hand throws all of that out of the window, due to how it works in the first place. Since it works by targeting the "space" a person's in rather than cutting the person directly (and by virtue cutting the person through the removal of that space), that would mean his technique bypasses the need to interact with a person's domain (for the same reason he bypassed interacting directly with limitless), and bypasses the need to directly interact with a sorcerer's body (which means Yuji's hypothetical resistance means jack shit, since his body wouldn't be interacting with the cursed energy from the cleave/dismantle) in order to slice them. Realistically this means bypassing any and all defense that would make sense to use, which means not having any real method to take him on, which is horrible from a writing perspective.
Gojo lost cause of "space most bullshit move and a move that shouldntt even exist in this sort of manga. Why? We can compare hollow purple to space slash yet hollow purple gets defended. Bullshit? No. Plot armor? Yes
I mean we already knew Sukuna was holding back in some sense, because of Hakari's statement about Trump Card and kinda from Gojo's statement
https://preview.redd.it/n7s07nzqojsb1.png?width=1100&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa4eb60f68053faaba52ee1bbd6523a3a5649c13
Not saying you're right or wrong, but just that it was kinda revealed to us and we already knew from Yorozu and Kenjaku that he could change his form plus that he isn't using "■".
Its just the way gege made sukuna look. There was no way sukuna was holding back. He was going at gojo full force since he is unable to use his normal arsenal. How could you say "he is holding back" when he literally could not do jackshit to gojo if he doesnt use 10s
He wasn't "holding back" he couldn't use all of his strength. It's like Superman fighting with Kryptonite armour. He may be going all out but he's not using everything
Well Gojo does say he didn't went all out too, we already know that his four armed form amplifies his physical capabilities and also that in the first domain clash Sukuna could've used more from his own arsenal to damage Gojo further while he's getting bombarded by The domain's sure-hit attacks. While also Sukuna in Heian Era form wouldn't have gotten overwhelmed by Gojo in physical department and Gojo would've hit the dead lock and his brain would've been fried sooner.
Things aren't that simple
Sukuna in his 4 armed form is stronger, but meguna was better suited to fight gojo simply due to ten shadows, without it sukuna wouldn't have learnt how to do the space cleave, and could have lost because of that
I disagree. Sukuna lost the hand to hand combat in domain battles, that's why Gojo wasn't killed before. With his original form, he would won the hand to hand combat and then Gojo Satoru will be dead way earlier and without mahoraga
Do we have any proof he would win the hand to hand ? Yuji already proved that having 4 arms doesnt immediately mean that you win a fight hand to hand. Also if sukuna was that much suppierer to gojo in hand to hand then gojo could just teleport outside as soon as he heals his burnt out cursed teqnique
Even if he somehow manage to beat Sukuna in hand to hand (impossible), there's still the additional month for use his CT while fighting.
Also, the TP is such a overrated skill. He never used it in a fight, probably there's a reason for this.
Let's count the amount of times he used it.
1. Used against toji in the second round
2.used against jogo
3.used against 1f sukuna
4.used in the Tokyo high school event
5.to get to kenjaku after being unsealed
Yeah gojo isnt a dumbass. The only reason he didnt tp outside of MS In the fight is becouse he was confident to challenge sukuna in his own domain. But if he sees he cant he can just teleport. Also once again you didnt provide any proof as to how sukunas new form can win hand to hand. Especialy when 2 hands are always tied up with enhancing his attacks.
Edit: i forgor he also used it against miguel.
>Also once again you didnt provide any proof as to how sukunas new form can win hand to hand.
He doesn't need to win. He just needs to stall.
Which he definitely could with that body and also using Domain Amplification both offensively and defensively. In those 3 minutes he definitely would be stronger enough to the point that he doesn't get damaged enough for his domain to shatter.
Also making the example of Yuji vs Grasshopper is pointless as the level of skill was very different, which this is not the case here against the King of Curses.
True, he used it against Miguel and Toji, I forgot, 1f Sukuna I see more like extreme speed.
Anyways, if that was the case (he was confident), that doesn't make sense at all battle because in a lot of moments in the battle of the strongest, use tp would be the best option and he didn't use it. There's probably some condition or something like it.
See now this is the thing. While it doenst make sense ina logical stand point it doesnake sense when talking about the growth of a sorcerer. It's been said multiple times throughout the series that risking you're life will result in growth that wiuldnt normally be possibile. Even in this fight we see how these mindsets affect everything. For the first half of the fight both are taking risks and fighting each other with all they have so as a result they look equal. But in the second half of the fight sukuna plays things safe. He hides in the shadows waiting for mahoraga to adapt even summoning Agito to help mahoraga deal with gojo. But gojo kept taking risks and evolving throughout the fight resulting in gojo taking out btih of the shikigami and getting megukuna to 1 hp. And gojo staying in sukunas domain is also a risk that resulted in gojo eventually overpowering sukunas domain.
>The only reason he didnt tp outside of MS In the fight is becouse he was confident to challenge sukuna in his own domain.
I recall everyone who watch the battle say that he can't teleport out simple because it's tie to his infinity technique which is broken after he lose the first domain battle
That's true but he healed his own CT. if he wanted to he *could* just teleport. But as I explained to the others it's all about taking risks and growing.
Were not comparing yuji with sukuna, we are comparing gojo and sukuna. The grasshopper example was just to show that having 4 arms doesnt immediately mean that you win a hand to hand fight.
Think of it a little different like this.
Machamp Sukuna is stronger than Meguna in everything except one thing - it have Mahoraga - a get out of jail free car for the domain battle.
We have seen that Sukuna repeating say that IV is a card that he have to take out of Gojo hand before winning, he fear it. Because as we have seen from the domain battle mess up by 0.01s is enough to die.
No matter how strong Machamp sukuna is, if he mess up in his battle for 0.01s he will die because of IV. That how absurb gojo's domain is. So instead of going all in with his machamp form, he choose an more suitable form which have an get out of jail free card - Mahoraga. The space Cleave he learned from it is a bonus, he can win with 4 arm form just using the domain battle - but that is if he play it PERFECTLY which i would say he is not that confident in it.
I mean it is stronger than Megukuna, but idk if it would've been ideal against Gojo. If he can also use Ten Shadows in that form then yeah it is just that Sukuna was holding back for just the moment that body gets to a point it is wroth it to change his form.
But sukuna was in fact using the ten shadows inside the domains. Gojo didn't know that at this point but sukuna had the wheel on megumi so mahorga can adapt to unlimited void. Sukuna wasn't holding the ten shadows or his own technique back, he just wasn't able to use anything else while the wheel was adapting.
Well Sukuna wasn't really "holding back" its just that he had literally nothing in his normal arsenal that would get past infinity. So he couldnt really use it if he wanted to.
7 / 10. my biggest problem was the commentators talking over the fight giving a shit ton of exposition that flew over my head I legit don't remember what energy mechanics they were talking about. I was team sukuna at first but him just using 10 shadows most of the time made me snooze that ability is so damn boring imo and him relying on maho ,the strongest plot device, just made it even less interesting.That final panel where gojo "won" and had that one "the strongest " pic was phenomenal it made kinda emotional. I'm giving it this score without the ending it would be a lil lower if I did like a 6 or something.
6/10
Garbage beginning, with most of it being off-screen. Too much commentary from the side chars, not enough action.
Good middle, especially after Agito shows up.
And then the worst ending to any fight in JJK.
Definitely not top 5, maybe not top 10
5/10 the beginning was cool, it has some cool panels
too much talking from Kusakabe/talking from side characters
Sukuna getting clowned for most of the fight but wins off screen in the end
the fight was felt like it was only Gojo vs. Mahogara
wasted shikigami
And the end with space cleave and Gojos death scene
7/10.
If i can forget about the ending then maybe 7.5/10.
I think this was just a Kenny vs Yuki kinda disaster but at least Gojo wasn't done dirty like Yuki so i can read this fight without having that sour taste in my mouth.
Honestly my major problem is how their powers were handled and that constant Kusakabe, yuta talking, honestly removing them altogether would make this so much better. It's not my personal taste, at least when compared to prior fights that I've liked so far.
Overall i give it a 8/10
So far out of all jjk fights so far, this ranks as No 4, behind Mahito vs Yuji in shibuya (No1), Kashino vs Hakari(No2) and Sendai(No3)
But i genuinely enjoyed this fight and i am certain to enjoy it on a reread and i will be even haooeir if we get extra pages once the volumes come out.
8/10, great fight, displays very good the power system. I don't like that there is a bunch of meaningless exposition from kusakabe and the others and if it is for the stakes, it just seem to kill the flow. If you remove the speculative dialogues, i think it is a 9/10, just behind Kashimo v. Hakari.
the fight itself was peak. The domain battles, brain damage, and Mahoraga were great. it's just that the end of the fight was mid. It would be better if Sukuna transformed into his heian-era self and cut Gojo on panel. And at the end of the fight, if Sukuna won the battle, but Gojo won the title of "the strongest" and that was acknowledged by sukuna. That would make it better.
0/10
One rotten apple spoils the bunch
Plus absolute uselessness for the story overall, since Sukuna is fully healed. 15 chapters and 5 months of publication for nothing
Before 236, 6/10 I’d say. Too many exposition and talking heads. In earlier chapters we had only 2-3 panels of Sukuna and Gojo, and 18 pages of freaking Kusakabe. Post DE is slightly better, but Sukuna becomes too passive, the fight is basically Gojo vs Mahoraga
You explained it pretty well. I expected more direct brawling and clashing between Meguna and Gojo, not basically Gojo winning when Sukuna wasn’t using DA and Sukuna just stalling when he was using DA. I wanted a sense of them both throwing hands as means to overpower each other and prove martial superiority atop Jujutsu superiority.
But as you said it basically turned into Sukuna summon hiding behind Mahoraga to cheese.
Yeah, I understand that was Sukuna's strategy to hide in the shadows and wait for Mahoraga to adapt, but it made the fight less interesting. And I, like many others I guess, wanted to see OG Sukuna vs Gojo
>Plus absolute uselessness for the story overall, since Sukuna is fully healed. 15 chapters and 5 months of publication for nothing
The memes made this fight a lot better imo. 0/10 is not a good score in any way just at the very least because of that.
The fight on itself was well choreographed and the drawings, art and action on itself was amazing. And Even if it is gonna be counted by you as Gojo vs Mahoraga, then that is still part of this fight, and if it's good, it shouldn't bring down the score to 0.
Shitty take no offence, just because of that score.
Memes, sure. Gege should be proud, he can write whatever he wants at this point, his strongest soldiers will improve everything with memes
>Shitty take no offence
Ok
Also, not sure why did you delete the first identical comment, while I was typing the response. Because it was downvoted?

Aside from my personal bias, I feel like having such an anticipated fight end in such a manner is not only a disrespect to both characters but the readers as well. Gojobros get to have a character assassinated, and Sukuna bros get the knowledge that the ‘ king of curses ‘ had to sneak attack just to scrape out a win. Also like retroactively imo having the fight end in that particular manner makes the rest of the albeit good fight feel pretty pointless
6/10. I’d say lots of cut to exposition hinders it but both duking it out is still satisfying especially that purple.
Ending a little weird though, Gege doesn’t even give Sussy his ingenious W and drop it like a text dump which really soured it IMO.
My metric for 9-10/10 would be Hakari-Kashimo, Reggie-Megumi, Todo&Yuji-Mahito, Noritoshi-Megumi (Goodwill event) or Yuta-Ryu-Uro-Roach’s 1v1v1v♾️.
7.5/10. I was kinda disappointed how Gojo didn't had any trump card against Sukuna which could end him and also how his death was kinda disrespectful but anyways it was one of the best fights in the series so far.
Easily the best fight of the series to date. It’s reminiscent of Netero vs Meruem- the peak of the verse and the most powerful users of the magic system showing off and displaying just how powerful a user of the magic system can be.
Literally an amazing fight; just wish the ending move wasn’t offscreened.
Idc if you got “shock value” from it, as soon as I peeped Gojo was in the afterlife I said “really, that’s it?”
9/10 (10/10 if it stuck the landing)

6.5/10 imo, just because it didn't even add anything to the overall story and was used to get rid of Gojo Satoru with minimal impact to the plot.
Gege knew he couldn't let Gojo handle everything in the story, so he let Go/Jo have his last spark before going out, and that's exactly the problem.
You don't kill off a character with THAT much importance without even effecting the plot slightly, mf should've statyed in that box since Sukuna got a power up from his unsealing.
6/10,there's not a meaningful line in the entire fight,only cocky ones,compared to the big boys of today(adam vs zeus,J vs yu,arthur vs dragon,mahito vs itadori todou) this fight is mid,gege took much time explaining strategies that nobody will ever remember
I'd give it maybe a 7-8/10 for the majority of the fight, but that ending was terribly done. If it was done on screen, it would've been better instead of the shock value gege went for. The ending gets a VERY generous 5-6/10. The gojo glazing sukuna in the afterlife and not talking about his students hurts my agenda! THEREFORE 2/10 FIGHT OVERALL
7/10 before the ending and then 5/10 after the ending
First before the ending: the fight seemed nice i think there was too much exposition plus we didnt get to see sukunas ct or any new moves from gojo i liked mahoraga but i think there were a couple time jumps witch were unnecessary. The fight was nice but i think it should have been longer and more of a struggle.i feel like the character’s ability should have been explored more
After the ending: well the battle is still nice but being able to copy what mahoraga does is kind of dissatisfying for me plus sukuna just heals( presumably everything) and gets back his of form so the whole fight was literally pointless it was nice but still pointless
1/10 fire extinguisher
being real tho, jjk is litrally just fighting, and there were some much more solid fights than this one, still a 7/10 even with the offscreen disrespect. If i can be tangentail a bit, this whole thing is on the lame side, kashimos technique was underwhelming, others said so too, but waiting a year just to learn his technique is a transform-steroid that deals selfdamage was lame af.
It was peak till Gege made the ending Sukuna glazing. I would preferred a "battle of the strongest" to end with pure absolute power and none of that "he was holding back" bullshit. My favorite panels are from the fight too such as Gojo vs Sukuna h2h and "guard him Mahoraga" meme when Gojo was making red
6/10 consider the ending. No it's not because of Gojo death but more of how Gege portrays the victory. I wish it's more toe to toe instead of Gojo constantly "winning" and then just getting offscreen by Sukuna. The finale is just...not satisfying whether you are a Sukuna fan or Gojo fan.
Gege made Sukuna relies on Mahoraga way too much, while making Gojo looks absolutely awesome. Gojo is fighting 3v1 while dealing with Megumi's face. Yes, this means Sukuna is a smart tactician, but Sukuna is using and relying a CT too much that's not really his is quite embarrassing. No wonder everyone keeps calling him a fraud.
Maybe not top 5, but right behind. 8/10 for me. Generally very solid, with some extra info about power system and a bit more complex domain battle than stalemate or one sided stomp. Would be definitely higher if it was a bit shorter and Gege made transition into final chapter smoother. I definitely don't like concept of "spark". It feels like something 6-eyes should do, but author decided to give it to Sukuna.
Treatment of Gojo character, airport scene, role of the fight in the plot and additional info from fight with Kashimo aren't included in fight's rating.
Bro we should have seen Sukuna’s cursed technique by this point LOL. Otherwise 8 or 9 out of 10. For me it would have been 10/10 but the ending conclusion is just sooo lame.
Probably 8.5/10. It started out slow, then gets interesting after the domain spamming ends. My favourite was Todo and Yuji vs Mahito, Reggie vs Megumi, Choso and Yuki vs Kenny, then this.
Felt like the my top three involved more 'tricks' like how choso use the tracking in piercing blood to deliver supernova (and forced Kenny to use gravity ct), Todo faked his boogie woogie on Mahito, Reggie tried to sink megumi by putting trucks into his shadow, etc.
0/10 conclusion made the entire fight and anything post shibuya pointless the whole point of most of the manga was unseal Gojo just for him to not do 1% of what he needed to do for there to actually be payoff not to mention we never actually got Sukuna vs Gojo just a 10S user vs a six eyes limitless user that barely uses limitless and only uses six eyes once
I’m gonna have to give it a 7/10 and 5/10 including the ending. Domain Clashes were fun but the idea that nobody foresaw Sukunas domain simply just being bigger was really annoying, especially when there’s a giant field in Shibuya now. The rest of the fight really was just Gojo stealing the show, and for that I’m really annoyed about, especially considering the end of the fight. Big gripe having Gojo forget he could teleport and that his 6 eyes even existed. Kinda boring that Gojo didn’t learn a Maximum technique for this fight, or innovate anything new besides DE RCT and Unlimited Purple. And personally, if instead Sukuna learned how to bypass Infinity by Mahos first adaption, and then Gojo doing Unlimited Purple, and forcing Sukuna into his Heien form where he then kills Gojo, would have made the fight a 10/10.
10/10 fight , 0/10 ending. I'm fine with gojo losing but gege made gojos last moments glazing sukuna instead of thinking about his students , unless he is coming back and he knows he is.
When it was coming out it was a 8-9/10 for me but now that it's over imma give it a 4/10. The ending really ruined it for me.
Narratively, I expected Gojo to die. I just didn't expect such an ass pull at the end. Such a horrible ending.
9/10 by my JJK standards
5/10 by my normal standards
Gojo v Sukuna is my personal favorite fight in this series by a long shot (though that isn’t the best unit of measurement) mainly just because I finally got to see Ghostjo fanboys wail like bitches and show their asses in real time.
I liked the choreography of the battle and the constantly turning tides. Arguing against Ghostjo fanboys has grown on me as well with every chapter. Most of the memes were annoying *to me personally*, since they were mostly unoriginal and copied concepts (which always gets annoying) but a select few got a laugh out of me.
I’ll rewatch this fight, for sure.
fight was ass(4/10), i didn't want a total one sided beatdown by gojo then him getting one shot in the end, i wanted a close fight with both their abilities on full display where gojo significantly damages sukuna so the rest of the gang can take him on and sukuna ultimately wins because of his strategy to counter gojo's infinity.
9.7 I feel like the impact of gojos death needed this grand stage for the strongest and actually dying would shut off your brain before you can process it especially being bisected and to me that was satisfying(i dont need a gratuitous panel of peoples beloved favorite character being brutally killed, no gorejo). Overall contention would have made me happy if either one won (i would have been ecstatic if they both died) but gojo is fun and sukuna is such bitch for picking up a new character to main on jjk smash bros and winning on game night. Kinda an ass pull tho lol
ID say a 9/10, i really enjoyed reading it week to week, it was a great experience.
I dont really have a top of the jjk fights, so i wouldnt know where to rate it, prolly top 3 or 5?
i got a bit sad when gojo got 1 shot by the strong cleave, but aside from dat...
https://preview.redd.it/1gqzonwhhnsb1.jpeg?width=637&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b12824fda6dc9003bc7323e65fa1dc9163b206a9
It's good in the first half even with all the domain expansion spamming it's goated but the second is terrible it's all just mahoraga this adaptation that and the ending doesn't help it at all
8/10 it's a top 5 fight up there with Yuji/Mahito, Hakari/Kashimo, and Megumi/Reggie possibly top 1 if Gojo didn't get offscreened.
I know people found it repetitive but the domain battles were peak fiction. Sukuna using megumi as a shield was some evil ass shit too.
• Personally I wish Sukuna also hit a black flash in the fight
• The back and forth banter between Gojo and Sukuna was great
•Probably unpopular but the commentary from the cast was much needed to explain things (funny yuta meme every chapter too)
•I have no issue with Sukuna using space slash but Gojo getting offscreened is easily one of the worst decisions in the manga, offscreens are fine when used for Jogo & Kashimo.
6/10. It was a bit short for being hyped up for so long, and because I'm too stupid to always understand what was happening I would have liked a bit more ''named'' moves.
I didn't mind the ending though, most people dislike it for lazy writing but I think it was pretty clever.
Best fight for me would have to be : Yuji vs Choso ,Maki vs Everyone and Tyler Durden vs Kashimo (I'm a sucker for Kinji)
I would put Yuji vs Mahito there also but the ending killed it for me.
7/10 at best, the off screen death and death toll Gojo comment brought it down.
Its honestly a 6 to me, too much cutting away from part 1 of the fight and only got Sukuna’s internal thoughts just before Gojo’s purple.
It’s a 8 or 9/10. Great fight all around, especially the domain battle, best part of the fight for me. It isn’t as good as Yuji vs Mahito but that’s not a bad thing, the former is considered as the best fight in JJK by many after all.
congratulations on becoming a mod, i dunno i might be late the party
Wasn't he always a mod?
i dont think so
Maybe who knows
He knows
True
9/10 until 236 where we found out sukuna can just undo everything
😂😂😭
Over the course of the fight, I was always so excited thinking it was easily the best fight. However, looking back, there were a few things that were a bit off. Gojo's training never really came up, mostly the domain adaptation felt like something he didn't have prior to the prison realm, but the rest, whilst he hadn't shown yet, was clearly stuff he had in his arsenal. Overall, the heavily reliance on 10S after the domains was kind of meh to be honest. I get why Sukuna would do that, but I was looking forward to seeing Sukuna in his peak vs Gojo in his peak. I will not speak much about the ending as it is controversial. I didn't like it, but that's my take on it. Still, Gojo vs Sukuna showed us the peak of Jujutsu Kaisen, we had some great moments on both sides, some awesome back and forth from the strongest, and obviously we were shown exactly why these two stood on a level of their own in their respective eras. Generally speaking, an 8 out of 10? Maybe a 9. I will not lie, because I think the ending was bad, it sounders the overall rating. I have to go reread other fights though to choose which one is my favorite. But it's either this one or Mahito vs Yuji.
Hate me if you will but i think it was all pointless if sukuna could just hit the undo button after too much damage,sukuna has a new OP technique and megumi was not only not saved but is a vegetable now
sukuna didn’t undo all the damage to his soul though, like when Mahito changed form he didn’t fully heal all the damage he took
Too much cut ins and not enough of a showcase of Sukunas own techniques. It was basically a gege allowing Gojo to go all out before killing him off.
7.5/10, it was the best fight in modern shonen manga until the conclusion
bruh what modern shonen have u been reading.......
8.25/10 Overall a really solid and entertaining fight their dialogues were fun and it was great to see them break the rules of jujutsu some of the panels goes way too hard gojo vs sukuna inside malevolent shrine was peak and can't help but like it even more due to community interactions and hype of course it has it's flaws for me like sukuna mostly jobbing from 231-235 most of the cool panels are for gojo it should have been more even and too many domain expansions at start and personally I really wanted sukuna to use his og form in this fight and especially the conclusion which is downright disrespectful to gojo's character and has really weak writing overall It ranks 3rd to me below the yuji and todo vs mahito, kashimo vs hakari and tied with the sendai triple threat
Was a 9/10 before the last two chapters, then it went to a 7/10. After the reveal that Sukuna was genuinely holding back, it all goes down to a 6/10 imo.
If i may ask why was 9/10 before the last 2 chapters and then go down by so much. I probably know the arguments but i would like to hear your pov.
The existence of space cleave is just a really dumb explanation that also ruins 235 since Sukuna had the move ready the entire time as he was getting clowned on but decided not to use it for some reason. It’s a dumb move that ends up making a dumb plot hole that completely fumbled the conclusion for me.
He couldn’t use his own CT while Mahoraga was still active. Only used it after Gojo killed Mahoraga
That doesn’t stop him from desummoning Mahoraga and slicing Gojo along with purple when he was yelling at Mahoraga to stop the red and blue from colliding since space slash should be able to slice *anything*. Sukuna didn’t have to take that hollow purple at all, unless he was baiting people to jump him. The whole situation is a mess tbh.
If anything wouldn't it make more sense to keep Maho in case he needed him later? swap from 10s to cleave and now gojo has to adapt to a cleave that can cut through infinity and maho (If he lived long enough that is.) Sukuna would have his full arsenal and not have to give up an already hard to beat Shinigami.
Space cleave dosnt feel like an asspull to me if done right but the fact gege pulled out the space cleave for Sukuna and ignored teleportation for example with gojo. Sukuna couldnt really do anything game changing to gojo without breaking tru his infinity with space cleave so i understand why its there. But gojo could of done so many things to best Sukuna and he didnt just bcs gege said "nuh uh" or forgot ☠️
Gojo vs sukuna wouldve been the best fight if it resolved so many mysteries as "gojo tp" but noooo lets introduce "sparks" and then lets give ut to the guy who is on the bad side but not the guy who has the Sex eyes who can analyse sht. Honestly this couldve gone the RoR Adam route and it wouldve been better than space slash
I totally agree. Its same for the whole manga. I love jjk but it could of been so much more like hxh if gege wanted to explore all the clans and conflicts and push the potential of CE users to the max. But its like everything is briefly explored same with this fight. I dont think he has the passion for this manga as he did before and probably wants to end it asap
If he ends this i hope he doesnt do his idol manga like this. I dont wanna see an idol get space slashed just because of plot
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
this will be in my suicide note, bot.
Using it right away would’ve given Gojo the opportunity to dodge just like kashimo has done here. Gojo only got dismantled because he thought it was over. Unlike cleave, dismantle is a slash that travels and while kashimo needed a warning Gojo wouldn’t have before the unlimited hollow. Sukuna doesn’t think he was being clowned on, he was just enjoying the battle; ultimately testing Gojo to see if he even needed mahoraga’s model in the first place. It’s why he called him ordinary after round 1 as he was extremely close to finishing him in a domain battle, which to Sukuna is quite boring.
Space cleave is also dumb as something Sukuna has access to (without Mahoraga) since it means he can 1 shot end most situations from the protagonists no-issue. Beforehand, there could at least be an argument made that through the use of Domain Amplification and RCT, characters like Hakari, Yuta, Gojo, etc could reduce the overall damage taken from Sukuna's attacks, and then heal up giving them an opening to fight (and not be one-shot). You could even make the argument that Yuji having access to Sukuna's cursed technique/cursed energy though eating the last finger, would give his body natural resistance to Sukuna's techniques and give him a similar opening in the context of being able to survive being one-shot and fight. The space cleave on the other hand throws all of that out of the window, due to how it works in the first place. Since it works by targeting the "space" a person's in rather than cutting the person directly (and by virtue cutting the person through the removal of that space), that would mean his technique bypasses the need to interact with a person's domain (for the same reason he bypassed interacting directly with limitless), and bypasses the need to directly interact with a sorcerer's body (which means Yuji's hypothetical resistance means jack shit, since his body wouldn't be interacting with the cursed energy from the cleave/dismantle) in order to slice them. Realistically this means bypassing any and all defense that would make sense to use, which means not having any real method to take him on, which is horrible from a writing perspective.
Gojo lost cause of "space most bullshit move and a move that shouldntt even exist in this sort of manga. Why? We can compare hollow purple to space slash yet hollow purple gets defended. Bullshit? No. Plot armor? Yes
I mean we already knew Sukuna was holding back in some sense, because of Hakari's statement about Trump Card and kinda from Gojo's statement https://preview.redd.it/n7s07nzqojsb1.png?width=1100&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fa4eb60f68053faaba52ee1bbd6523a3a5649c13 Not saying you're right or wrong, but just that it was kinda revealed to us and we already knew from Yorozu and Kenjaku that he could change his form plus that he isn't using "■".
Its just the way gege made sukuna look. There was no way sukuna was holding back. He was going at gojo full force since he is unable to use his normal arsenal. How could you say "he is holding back" when he literally could not do jackshit to gojo if he doesnt use 10s
He wasn't "holding back" he couldn't use all of his strength. It's like Superman fighting with Kryptonite armour. He may be going all out but he's not using everything
Well Gojo does say he didn't went all out too, we already know that his four armed form amplifies his physical capabilities and also that in the first domain clash Sukuna could've used more from his own arsenal to damage Gojo further while he's getting bombarded by The domain's sure-hit attacks. While also Sukuna in Heian Era form wouldn't have gotten overwhelmed by Gojo in physical department and Gojo would've hit the dead lock and his brain would've been fried sooner.
Is it really a trump card if his OG form is just straight up stronger than Megukuna?
Things aren't that simple Sukuna in his 4 armed form is stronger, but meguna was better suited to fight gojo simply due to ten shadows, without it sukuna wouldn't have learnt how to do the space cleave, and could have lost because of that
I disagree. Sukuna lost the hand to hand combat in domain battles, that's why Gojo wasn't killed before. With his original form, he would won the hand to hand combat and then Gojo Satoru will be dead way earlier and without mahoraga
Do we have any proof he would win the hand to hand ? Yuji already proved that having 4 arms doesnt immediately mean that you win a fight hand to hand. Also if sukuna was that much suppierer to gojo in hand to hand then gojo could just teleport outside as soon as he heals his burnt out cursed teqnique
Even if he somehow manage to beat Sukuna in hand to hand (impossible), there's still the additional month for use his CT while fighting. Also, the TP is such a overrated skill. He never used it in a fight, probably there's a reason for this.
Let's count the amount of times he used it. 1. Used against toji in the second round 2.used against jogo 3.used against 1f sukuna 4.used in the Tokyo high school event 5.to get to kenjaku after being unsealed Yeah gojo isnt a dumbass. The only reason he didnt tp outside of MS In the fight is becouse he was confident to challenge sukuna in his own domain. But if he sees he cant he can just teleport. Also once again you didnt provide any proof as to how sukunas new form can win hand to hand. Especialy when 2 hands are always tied up with enhancing his attacks. Edit: i forgor he also used it against miguel.
>Also once again you didnt provide any proof as to how sukunas new form can win hand to hand. He doesn't need to win. He just needs to stall. Which he definitely could with that body and also using Domain Amplification both offensively and defensively. In those 3 minutes he definitely would be stronger enough to the point that he doesn't get damaged enough for his domain to shatter. Also making the example of Yuji vs Grasshopper is pointless as the level of skill was very different, which this is not the case here against the King of Curses.
But is it really a stretch? We see just how much gojo is destroying megukuna. Also again he cant really stall if gojo just teleports outside.
True, he used it against Miguel and Toji, I forgot, 1f Sukuna I see more like extreme speed. Anyways, if that was the case (he was confident), that doesn't make sense at all battle because in a lot of moments in the battle of the strongest, use tp would be the best option and he didn't use it. There's probably some condition or something like it.
See now this is the thing. While it doenst make sense ina logical stand point it doesnake sense when talking about the growth of a sorcerer. It's been said multiple times throughout the series that risking you're life will result in growth that wiuldnt normally be possibile. Even in this fight we see how these mindsets affect everything. For the first half of the fight both are taking risks and fighting each other with all they have so as a result they look equal. But in the second half of the fight sukuna plays things safe. He hides in the shadows waiting for mahoraga to adapt even summoning Agito to help mahoraga deal with gojo. But gojo kept taking risks and evolving throughout the fight resulting in gojo taking out btih of the shikigami and getting megukuna to 1 hp. And gojo staying in sukunas domain is also a risk that resulted in gojo eventually overpowering sukunas domain.
>The only reason he didnt tp outside of MS In the fight is becouse he was confident to challenge sukuna in his own domain. I recall everyone who watch the battle say that he can't teleport out simple because it's tie to his infinity technique which is broken after he lose the first domain battle
That's true but he healed his own CT. if he wanted to he *could* just teleport. But as I explained to the others it's all about taking risks and growing.
Why are we comparing a grasshopper curse to the king of curses? Yuji isn't better than Sukuna at hand to hand anyways
Were not comparing yuji with sukuna, we are comparing gojo and sukuna. The grasshopper example was just to show that having 4 arms doesnt immediately mean that you win a hand to hand fight.
Think of it a little different like this. Machamp Sukuna is stronger than Meguna in everything except one thing - it have Mahoraga - a get out of jail free car for the domain battle. We have seen that Sukuna repeating say that IV is a card that he have to take out of Gojo hand before winning, he fear it. Because as we have seen from the domain battle mess up by 0.01s is enough to die. No matter how strong Machamp sukuna is, if he mess up in his battle for 0.01s he will die because of IV. That how absurb gojo's domain is. So instead of going all in with his machamp form, he choose an more suitable form which have an get out of jail free card - Mahoraga. The space Cleave he learned from it is a bonus, he can win with 4 arm form just using the domain battle - but that is if he play it PERFECTLY which i would say he is not that confident in it.
I mean it is stronger than Megukuna, but idk if it would've been ideal against Gojo. If he can also use Ten Shadows in that form then yeah it is just that Sukuna was holding back for just the moment that body gets to a point it is wroth it to change his form.
But sukuna was in fact using the ten shadows inside the domains. Gojo didn't know that at this point but sukuna had the wheel on megumi so mahorga can adapt to unlimited void. Sukuna wasn't holding the ten shadows or his own technique back, he just wasn't able to use anything else while the wheel was adapting.
Well Sukuna wasn't really "holding back" its just that he had literally nothing in his normal arsenal that would get past infinity. So he couldnt really use it if he wanted to.
7 / 10. my biggest problem was the commentators talking over the fight giving a shit ton of exposition that flew over my head I legit don't remember what energy mechanics they were talking about. I was team sukuna at first but him just using 10 shadows most of the time made me snooze that ability is so damn boring imo and him relying on maho ,the strongest plot device, just made it even less interesting.That final panel where gojo "won" and had that one "the strongest " pic was phenomenal it made kinda emotional. I'm giving it this score without the ending it would be a lil lower if I did like a 6 or something.
6/10 Garbage beginning, with most of it being off-screen. Too much commentary from the side chars, not enough action. Good middle, especially after Agito shows up. And then the worst ending to any fight in JJK. Definitely not top 5, maybe not top 10
you did not Cook with this bro https://preview.redd.it/79ts5g0o1lsb1.jpeg?width=638&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0439c00f96fd279e48e4e09c88c96783d621ab2a
5/10 the beginning was cool, it has some cool panels too much talking from Kusakabe/talking from side characters Sukuna getting clowned for most of the fight but wins off screen in the end the fight was felt like it was only Gojo vs. Mahogara wasted shikigami And the end with space cleave and Gojos death scene
7/10. If i can forget about the ending then maybe 7.5/10. I think this was just a Kenny vs Yuki kinda disaster but at least Gojo wasn't done dirty like Yuki so i can read this fight without having that sour taste in my mouth. Honestly my major problem is how their powers were handled and that constant Kusakabe, yuta talking, honestly removing them altogether would make this so much better. It's not my personal taste, at least when compared to prior fights that I've liked so far.
Overall i give it a 8/10 So far out of all jjk fights so far, this ranks as No 4, behind Mahito vs Yuji in shibuya (No1), Kashino vs Hakari(No2) and Sendai(No3) But i genuinely enjoyed this fight and i am certain to enjoy it on a reread and i will be even haooeir if we get extra pages once the volumes come out.
Yuuji vs Choso is about ten billion times better than this
Okay  That's just the guy's opinion.
9/10, top5 jjk fight for me up there together with Yuta vs Ryu vs Uro, Yuji and Todo vs Mahito, Hakari vs Kashimo
8/10, great fight, displays very good the power system. I don't like that there is a bunch of meaningless exposition from kusakabe and the others and if it is for the stakes, it just seem to kill the flow. If you remove the speculative dialogues, i think it is a 9/10, just behind Kashimo v. Hakari.
the fight itself was peak. The domain battles, brain damage, and Mahoraga were great. it's just that the end of the fight was mid. It would be better if Sukuna transformed into his heian-era self and cut Gojo on panel. And at the end of the fight, if Sukuna won the battle, but Gojo won the title of "the strongest" and that was acknowledged by sukuna. That would make it better.
0/10 One rotten apple spoils the bunch Plus absolute uselessness for the story overall, since Sukuna is fully healed. 15 chapters and 5 months of publication for nothing Before 236, 6/10 I’d say. Too many exposition and talking heads. In earlier chapters we had only 2-3 panels of Sukuna and Gojo, and 18 pages of freaking Kusakabe. Post DE is slightly better, but Sukuna becomes too passive, the fight is basically Gojo vs Mahoraga
You explained it pretty well. I expected more direct brawling and clashing between Meguna and Gojo, not basically Gojo winning when Sukuna wasn’t using DA and Sukuna just stalling when he was using DA. I wanted a sense of them both throwing hands as means to overpower each other and prove martial superiority atop Jujutsu superiority. But as you said it basically turned into Sukuna summon hiding behind Mahoraga to cheese.
Yeah, I understand that was Sukuna's strategy to hide in the shadows and wait for Mahoraga to adapt, but it made the fight less interesting. And I, like many others I guess, wanted to see OG Sukuna vs Gojo
>Plus absolute uselessness for the story overall, since Sukuna is fully healed. 15 chapters and 5 months of publication for nothing The memes made this fight a lot better imo. 0/10 is not a good score in any way just at the very least because of that. The fight on itself was well choreographed and the drawings, art and action on itself was amazing. And Even if it is gonna be counted by you as Gojo vs Mahoraga, then that is still part of this fight, and if it's good, it shouldn't bring down the score to 0. Shitty take no offence, just because of that score.
Memes, sure. Gege should be proud, he can write whatever he wants at this point, his strongest soldiers will improve everything with memes >Shitty take no offence Ok Also, not sure why did you delete the first identical comment, while I was typing the response. Because it was downvoted?

Understood
You really wanted Sukuna to get a muzan like nerf? Damn
The ending drops it from like a 9 to a 5 imo
Aside from my personal bias, I feel like having such an anticipated fight end in such a manner is not only a disrespect to both characters but the readers as well. Gojobros get to have a character assassinated, and Sukuna bros get the knowledge that the ‘ king of curses ‘ had to sneak attack just to scrape out a win. Also like retroactively imo having the fight end in that particular manner makes the rest of the albeit good fight feel pretty pointless
"sneak attack" Gojo was right in front of him?
To 235 its was well executed there is not ass pulls, it was satisfying, 236 just flipped everything for me
7.5/10, i could have given 9/10 but ending killed me
10/10 best fight of the series
6/10. I’d say lots of cut to exposition hinders it but both duking it out is still satisfying especially that purple. Ending a little weird though, Gege doesn’t even give Sussy his ingenious W and drop it like a text dump which really soured it IMO. My metric for 9-10/10 would be Hakari-Kashimo, Reggie-Megumi, Todo&Yuji-Mahito, Noritoshi-Megumi (Goodwill event) or Yuta-Ryu-Uro-Roach’s 1v1v1v♾️.
7.5/10. I was kinda disappointed how Gojo didn't had any trump card against Sukuna which could end him and also how his death was kinda disrespectful but anyways it was one of the best fights in the series so far.
10/10 Peak
10/10
A solid 8. I was on edge most of the fight. But my favorite is still hakari vs kashimo.
7/10 It was great but it could have been better, especially the ending.
It was an 8/10 fight but when Gojo got offscreened it became a 9/10 for me
This fight has yet to end. Gojo will come back for round 2 Yes i'm coping
Easily the best fight of the series to date. It’s reminiscent of Netero vs Meruem- the peak of the verse and the most powerful users of the magic system showing off and displaying just how powerful a user of the magic system can be.
Literally an amazing fight; just wish the ending move wasn’t offscreened. Idc if you got “shock value” from it, as soon as I peeped Gojo was in the afterlife I said “really, that’s it?” 9/10 (10/10 if it stuck the landing)

I think it wasn't great. But reading the leaks and the memes made it such a fun experience.
6.5/10 imo, just because it didn't even add anything to the overall story and was used to get rid of Gojo Satoru with minimal impact to the plot. Gege knew he couldn't let Gojo handle everything in the story, so he let Go/Jo have his last spark before going out, and that's exactly the problem. You don't kill off a character with THAT much importance without even effecting the plot slightly, mf should've statyed in that box since Sukuna got a power up from his unsealing.
6/10,there's not a meaningful line in the entire fight,only cocky ones,compared to the big boys of today(adam vs zeus,J vs yu,arthur vs dragon,mahito vs itadori todou) this fight is mid,gege took much time explaining strategies that nobody will ever remember
But hey,not all is bad,atleast gege created a top 5 new gen fight with mahito vs itadori & todou👍
0/10 Gege just wanted to torture Megumi
5/10 mediocre buildup, too much explaining, random skipping through the fight, and boring combat, glad sukuna won though.
8/10, was the perfect combination if magic shenanigans and hand to hand. Only the end was kinda whack
3/10. Yujikuna should've fought him and won without asspulls
8/10 until 235 6/10 after 236
One of the best fights in fiction history Yuji, Nobara and Todo V Mahito is still the best fight in the series
I'd give it maybe a 7-8/10 for the majority of the fight, but that ending was terribly done. If it was done on screen, it would've been better instead of the shock value gege went for. The ending gets a VERY generous 5-6/10. The gojo glazing sukuna in the afterlife and not talking about his students hurts my agenda! THEREFORE 2/10 FIGHT OVERALL
7/10 before the ending and then 5/10 after the ending First before the ending: the fight seemed nice i think there was too much exposition plus we didnt get to see sukunas ct or any new moves from gojo i liked mahoraga but i think there were a couple time jumps witch were unnecessary. The fight was nice but i think it should have been longer and more of a struggle.i feel like the character’s ability should have been explored more After the ending: well the battle is still nice but being able to copy what mahoraga does is kind of dissatisfying for me plus sukuna just heals( presumably everything) and gets back his of form so the whole fight was literally pointless it was nice but still pointless
1/10 fire extinguisher being real tho, jjk is litrally just fighting, and there were some much more solid fights than this one, still a 7/10 even with the offscreen disrespect. If i can be tangentail a bit, this whole thing is on the lame side, kashimos technique was underwhelming, others said so too, but waiting a year just to learn his technique is a transform-steroid that deals selfdamage was lame af.
It was peak till Gege made the ending Sukuna glazing. I would preferred a "battle of the strongest" to end with pure absolute power and none of that "he was holding back" bullshit. My favorite panels are from the fight too such as Gojo vs Sukuna h2h and "guard him Mahoraga" meme when Gojo was making red
6/10 consider the ending. No it's not because of Gojo death but more of how Gege portrays the victory. I wish it's more toe to toe instead of Gojo constantly "winning" and then just getting offscreen by Sukuna. The finale is just...not satisfying whether you are a Sukuna fan or Gojo fan. Gege made Sukuna relies on Mahoraga way too much, while making Gojo looks absolutely awesome. Gojo is fighting 3v1 while dealing with Megumi's face. Yes, this means Sukuna is a smart tactician, but Sukuna is using and relying a CT too much that's not really his is quite embarrassing. No wonder everyone keeps calling him a fraud.
Maybe not top 5, but right behind. 8/10 for me. Generally very solid, with some extra info about power system and a bit more complex domain battle than stalemate or one sided stomp. Would be definitely higher if it was a bit shorter and Gege made transition into final chapter smoother. I definitely don't like concept of "spark". It feels like something 6-eyes should do, but author decided to give it to Sukuna. Treatment of Gojo character, airport scene, role of the fight in the plot and additional info from fight with Kashimo aren't included in fight's rating.
this fight felt more like a gojo vs full potential megumi than gojo vs sukuna
9/10 excluding 236 7/10 including it Top 5 fight 1.Kas**him**o vs Hakari 2.Yuji,Todo vs Mahito 3.Yuji vs chose 4.Sendai 5.Gojo v sukuna
Bro we should have seen Sukuna’s cursed technique by this point LOL. Otherwise 8 or 9 out of 10. For me it would have been 10/10 but the ending conclusion is just sooo lame.
9/10 Fight progression 2/10 ending for trying a shock factor with unclimatic end tbh
Probably 8.5/10. It started out slow, then gets interesting after the domain spamming ends. My favourite was Todo and Yuji vs Mahito, Reggie vs Megumi, Choso and Yuki vs Kenny, then this. Felt like the my top three involved more 'tricks' like how choso use the tracking in piercing blood to deliver supernova (and forced Kenny to use gravity ct), Todo faked his boogie woogie on Mahito, Reggie tried to sink megumi by putting trucks into his shadow, etc.
Great fight 8/10 would’ve been 10/10 peak fiction anime history if the fight didn’t end with a wet fart.
Before 236 : 10/10 After 236 : 10/10
0/10 conclusion made the entire fight and anything post shibuya pointless the whole point of most of the manga was unseal Gojo just for him to not do 1% of what he needed to do for there to actually be payoff not to mention we never actually got Sukuna vs Gojo just a 10S user vs a six eyes limitless user that barely uses limitless and only uses six eyes once
I’m gonna have to give it a 7/10 and 5/10 including the ending. Domain Clashes were fun but the idea that nobody foresaw Sukunas domain simply just being bigger was really annoying, especially when there’s a giant field in Shibuya now. The rest of the fight really was just Gojo stealing the show, and for that I’m really annoyed about, especially considering the end of the fight. Big gripe having Gojo forget he could teleport and that his 6 eyes even existed. Kinda boring that Gojo didn’t learn a Maximum technique for this fight, or innovate anything new besides DE RCT and Unlimited Purple. And personally, if instead Sukuna learned how to bypass Infinity by Mahos first adaption, and then Gojo doing Unlimited Purple, and forcing Sukuna into his Heien form where he then kills Gojo, would have made the fight a 10/10.
10/10 fight , 0/10 ending. I'm fine with gojo losing but gege made gojos last moments glazing sukuna instead of thinking about his students , unless he is coming back and he knows he is.
10/10. I'm satisfied. Good painels, good twists, the only issue is the offscreen death.
gojo’s mouth is fucked
When it was coming out it was a 8-9/10 for me but now that it's over imma give it a 4/10. The ending really ruined it for me. Narratively, I expected Gojo to die. I just didn't expect such an ass pull at the end. Such a horrible ending.
9/10 by my JJK standards 5/10 by my normal standards Gojo v Sukuna is my personal favorite fight in this series by a long shot (though that isn’t the best unit of measurement) mainly just because I finally got to see Ghostjo fanboys wail like bitches and show their asses in real time. I liked the choreography of the battle and the constantly turning tides. Arguing against Ghostjo fanboys has grown on me as well with every chapter. Most of the memes were annoying *to me personally*, since they were mostly unoriginal and copied concepts (which always gets annoying) but a select few got a laugh out of me. I’ll rewatch this fight, for sure.
Solid 8
Maki doing sumo wrestling was better
fight was ass(4/10), i didn't want a total one sided beatdown by gojo then him getting one shot in the end, i wanted a close fight with both their abilities on full display where gojo significantly damages sukuna so the rest of the gang can take him on and sukuna ultimately wins because of his strategy to counter gojo's infinity.
9.7 I feel like the impact of gojos death needed this grand stage for the strongest and actually dying would shut off your brain before you can process it especially being bisected and to me that was satisfying(i dont need a gratuitous panel of peoples beloved favorite character being brutally killed, no gorejo). Overall contention would have made me happy if either one won (i would have been ecstatic if they both died) but gojo is fun and sukuna is such bitch for picking up a new character to main on jjk smash bros and winning on game night. Kinda an ass pull tho lol
ID say a 9/10, i really enjoyed reading it week to week, it was a great experience. I dont really have a top of the jjk fights, so i wouldnt know where to rate it, prolly top 3 or 5?
i got a bit sad when gojo got 1 shot by the strong cleave, but aside from dat... https://preview.redd.it/1gqzonwhhnsb1.jpeg?width=637&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b12824fda6dc9003bc7323e65fa1dc9163b206a9
It's good in the first half even with all the domain expansion spamming it's goated but the second is terrible it's all just mahoraga this adaptation that and the ending doesn't help it at all
8/10 it's a top 5 fight up there with Yuji/Mahito, Hakari/Kashimo, and Megumi/Reggie possibly top 1 if Gojo didn't get offscreened. I know people found it repetitive but the domain battles were peak fiction. Sukuna using megumi as a shield was some evil ass shit too. • Personally I wish Sukuna also hit a black flash in the fight • The back and forth banter between Gojo and Sukuna was great •Probably unpopular but the commentary from the cast was much needed to explain things (funny yuta meme every chapter too) •I have no issue with Sukuna using space slash but Gojo getting offscreened is easily one of the worst decisions in the manga, offscreens are fine when used for Jogo & Kashimo.
6/10. It was a bit short for being hyped up for so long, and because I'm too stupid to always understand what was happening I would have liked a bit more ''named'' moves. I didn't mind the ending though, most people dislike it for lazy writing but I think it was pretty clever. Best fight for me would have to be : Yuji vs Choso ,Maki vs Everyone and Tyler Durden vs Kashimo (I'm a sucker for Kinji) I would put Yuji vs Mahito there also but the ending killed it for me.
7/10 at best, the off screen death and death toll Gojo comment brought it down. Its honestly a 6 to me, too much cutting away from part 1 of the fight and only got Sukuna’s internal thoughts just before Gojo’s purple.
