You can see my Kenjaku coping in this thread lol. I loved his parts in the manga but wanted him to still be an active role rather than as a narrative device. I don’t think what I want is necessary though as he has fulfilled his purpose, it’s just a want to see him watch the merger happen. I’m just hoping the Yujo plot line isn’t brushed over, I got faith but that would be disappoint me if it did. Same with the Hakari fight. But I love the story and I’m not complaining that these two things ruin the story lol but depending on this ending, the story can be a personal 9 or 10. I think he’ll write a wonderful five chapter ending, but I could be wrong and may not like the ending. But I’m willing to wait.
my biggest gripes so far are:
Yuki and Tsumiki/Yoruzo shouldve had 1 more fight in the culling games. Explaining their powers and killing them same fight never reads well. Kenjaku needs another moment with Yuji (altho that might still happen. Uraume shouldve had a culling game fight. I dont really care about heian flashback or anything tbh. And Sukuna "ending" the culling games is still one of the best moments in the manga
Honestly the more I think about it my issue isnt this conclusion it is that as gege himself admitted he didnt dive deep enough into the CG to build up everything we have now. Ah it sucks thinking about what wouldve happened if CG was a normal tournament arc man. Soooo much missed potential. But I guess Gege took the shorter route. And I still think CG is quite good
Oh cry me a river
Maybe dont be a d*** to the 2 people in this entire thread that actually want to enjoy something for once.
ive had plenty of legit criticism about this current arc and you've either, branded me as a "jjk hater" despite me singing the series praises prior to this arc, focused in on one point of my argument but dismiss everything else or straight up misconstrue the entire point of whatever i argued about. im not like rano (and no offense to dude at all) where i just pop in itt and just type "lol gege is a fraud" i actually list out my problems
cant recall any other time where ive been a "dick" to you or the other dude in this thread aside from the very obvious facetious post i just made earlier. ironically enough (and specifically the other guy) yall are the ones doing the namecalling lmao

Nahh I see what you were doing you were replying to a post that was arguing with me and wanted to paint me as some gege d***sucker who will defend him to his grave or something. Im not gonna repeat your full post but its one page back.
But as I said in the other post this thread definitely not a circlejerk session (and jjk discourse on the internet neither) so you were onto nothing.
And also when you guys post s*** like that what else would be the motivation than to get a reaction from the people that still enjoy the manga. So dont turn around with that "wow you cannot critique this manga itt" dont make me laugh
Doesn't mean I have to be happy about it lol? Tf type of statement is this
Well what you gonna do about it? Type out why you're not happy about it?
Nobody gives a s*** brother
Nah fr. Sukuna is not final villain material. I always saw him as the wild card that's just looking for a good fight. Kenjaku was the one with big motivations
His powers are just boring compared to everyone elses. All he does is cut things, He was cooler with the 10 shadows tbh

I'm just giving my opinion because that's the point of a forum on the internet lol. Yall niggas are so lame
Does anyone know the status of the anime production I’m curious with the manga ending how much sesone cover will be adjusted.

you quite literally are lol. any critique towards the series and you get super emotional. you've done it multiple times itt and in the anime thread
"Im not gonna repeat your full post but its one page back."
idk why you're looking for a gotcha moment when i literally reference it in my post

if you think im tiptoeing from calling you a gege d***rider trust me i have no problem doing so
"But as I said in the other post this thread definitely not a circlejerk session (and jjk discourse on the internet neither) so you were onto nothing."
you're delusional if you think itt isnt a circlejerk at all lol. no other way to slice it. just because people are recently joking about the series ending soon doesn't mean it doesnt get glazed to death. AOT got gassed up to oblivion (and still does) even after the s***e ending it had

Not everyone can be Oda. Just is what it is. Might as well just enjoy the fights and ignore everything else

I dont think anyone wanted this to be anywear near the length of one piece nor even naruto or bleach but an extra like 20-40 chapters would've done wonders for this tho.

I'm not talking length. Just the story telling/universe building skills

JJK doesn't need op level world building imo. but it does need something because this s*** has honestly some of the worst worldbuilding i've ever seen in any shonen. There's clans that are thousands of years old but there's only two schools with like 13 students total combined and thousands of curses where is everyone else?

I mean jjk „worldbuilding“ is super barebone cause it wants to place real characters of the current world inside of its story
I do think think the implications on japanese history with Tengen and Kenjaku are quite interesting but I dont think gege will touch upon it in 5 chapters so its gonna stay implied.
But why so few student? I mean this has been answered plenty times. They are very understaffed. Even from the big families only a few solid sorcerers come out despite their incestious nature. So few so they were gonna buy Megumi just for his technique!! And in the second episode gojo pretty much told yuji there was noway he wasnt gonna fight.
Glad they pulling the plug, s*** became absolute ASS.
Hope Jump starts to reconsider their work ethics, can't have a decade more of mediocre garbage
Reminder that the chronological order is in the OP.
f*** the chronological order tbh, doesn’t make sense to watch it that way unless you’re already familiar with the series
best way imo is S1, then flashback to The Hidden Inventory & JJK0 as a back-to-back watch, then The Shibuya Incident
the release order gets it so close, but they literally reference The Hidden Inventory in JJK0 so it doesn’t make sense to watch the movie first
edit:
just noticed this is from May lol oh well

Dude lets be real it's barebones because Gege did not put much effort into it. Y'all lose me everytime with the realistic argument this s*** has a talking panda, there's a giant hole in shibuya and the police are no where to be seen and for some reason yuji seems to not care that his mom was a brain demon.
And it's way more then that, how does the jujutsu society even work? Are their really no other sorcerers in Japan that care about sukuna being free? What was the point of the cursed corpses plotline?
No it hasn't there's plenty of students or at least other fodder sorcerers in JJK0 that we just are never gonna see again. Like i understand gege never wanted to do a school setting but like its there at least make it functional. There's thousands of curses and only like 6 students in a high killing job. I needed to be shown what the other sorcerers do besides being Cartoon villians

Im becoming annoying again I feel like as Geges certified #1 warrior in the jjk thread but I still want to reply to this and I respect your opinion but
No man we dont need to know how the higher ups work. Its implied and the emotion is enough. How does SEELE in Eva work? Who runs the Devil hunter organisation in CSM. We dont need to know everything and it is the emotion associated that matters. Its a key difference to worldbuilding like in One Piece. OP usually introduces details and explains them years later. Any relevant island will be explored and every important character will be met. But not every story does that. You could even critique OP in the regard that it sometimes is unrealistic. Sure is a coincidence that Luffy picked up a kid that is a king from Wano. Oh wow suddenly there is Vegapunk. It both comes with pros and cons and sometimes like in One piece its super well made.
And regarding your other questions. Are there no other sorcerers that care about sukuna being free? Im sure plenty people care about maybe dying. But Gojo shifted the world with his birth man. What the heck is some random sorcerer like the ones in jjk0 gonna do? They were shown being killed by Mimiko!! The entire Zenin clan got wiped out by Maki. The Kamos are not said to be stronger lol. Kenjaku walked right in there
I am fully on board with you that its a damn shame we might not get anything on Kenjaku and Yuji and I would even more add Tengen to that. But sorry most of your points are literally answered in the manga.
