Another subtle change here where the anime continues to have Gojo feel completely unaffectable by the moves of the Curses..
I however really liked how the Manga depicted Gojo's concern through his shock/disgust here. I don't think it made him feel weaker at all. Rather it
I 100% believe the way that the students beat Sukuna eventually, will be inspired by/incorporate 1 or more things that Gojo has managed to show them during this fight.. The fight, in more ways than one, essentially doubling as his final lesson to them.. 👌🏽

Imagine how lonely it was for her at the top, taking on all the pressures & burdens for a while, till the other Special Grades came up..
No wonder she excitedly ran over to meet Gojo lol..

One thing I love about Jujutsu Kaisen is the lengths to which Gege goes to make things feel balanced. Even the top 2 known innate Techniques in series.
The Infinity requiring Six Eyes level proficiency to fully tap into & further effort & dedication beyond that..
10 Shadows
This is actually crazy. Bro was suffering like that on the inside repeatedly & still maintaining his smile & composure for his students. 🙌🏼

Gege so goated for these. Love seeing Gege just having fun with the pen sometimes too. Can't wait to find more references in the CG & beyond.. 👌🏽

Utahime is their best kept secret from Sukuna rn.. Bro likely still thinks Gojo launched that first attack alone with some vows.. Maybe as a consequence of projecting his own mindset into Gojo..
Officials going back in to make sure Utahime's CT was corrected feels more
Not surprised by the correction in Utahime's CT from 'one' to 'any'. It's what I assumed, that she also boosted Ijichi here.
What excites me is removing the word 'willing' as that now creates a possibility for her to randomly intervene anywhere & surprise boost an ally.

WHAT DID I JUST WATCH?!! Can't believe they went that hard for 1 page. Definitely some fellow Choso stans on that Anime team. Great move on their part considering his increased relevance beyond this arc. 🔥

You tend to see most shonen series only get progressively more serious as time goes on. To the point where enjoyment feels out of place near the end etc.
Something I really like about Jujutsu Kaisen & it's fights is how characters can still feel like they're selfishly enjoying
YUJI CAN SEE THEM?!! 🔥
So The reason that previous slash was drawn differently was to indicate Yuji's perception & active response confirmed. 👏🏽 It wasn't just eg the force/damage that dropped him to 1 knee..

Even though Haruta willingly took it, the anime still gave Nobara a k*ll. 👏🏽 I'll take it Lool. Gege giving her her props. This is def the kinda decision that would have to be run by him or come from him.

Can we stop saying "If he didn't have the Six Eyes.. " lol. That's literally a biological part of him. It's how he was born.
I've never heard someone say something like eg 'take Sasuke's Sharingan away'. Gojo's eyes are literally just much rarer.
It's still all him..
#ShadzJK
Look at that walk & those gestures lmao. They made her feel way more eccentric in the anime. Almost worse than Ui Ui & fitting of their combined performative weirdness.. His persona feels normal next to this Mei Mei.. 😅 💀

Shoto was so shaken that he went from stubbornly & professionally saying Endeavour, back to Dad.. The involuntary tears in his eyes too. 👌🏽 So many great little touches for me.

My favourite masterpiece of a detail this episode was the way the sound of the followers clapping blended in with both the sound of the shower water & rain water..
Conveying just how traumatic it was still. He hears it constantly, in mundane things..

They did a great job not only depicting the fear in Mahito but also the causes of that fear..
Like mother like son..
I wonder if there's a chance that Mahito actually felt the connection between them in the end & that's partly what the wolf imagery for both
Mahito prancing around Shibuya was already demonic/ominous enough but I feel like they captured his Curse side even better in the way he's moving here. Definitely understood the assignment. 👌🏽

Yh I'm good with Yuji delivering this line & understand they want to subtly add impact to his initial reaction after..
But still, I was getting pumped to hear them all say 'The Strongest' at the same time. Which is what I think the page was implying also.
#JJK
#ShadzJK
I think some may overlook it & Choso since we're left with a lot of top tiers taking center stage now. Yuji's unique tolerance & performance could also have been misleading..
But the vast majority of Sorcerers are not equipped to survive contact with Choso's blood for long..

This is pretty much exactly what I wanted for Projection Sorcery in a few weeks.. Literally feeling as if we skipped key frames periodically inbetween movement. Like stop motion animation, with minimal effects. 👌🏽

As many had suspected, they were intentionally holding back on fully doing the Six Eyes. Saving it for after this awakening.
I like that constant shimmering. Gives the impression that they're like their own living entity. Always on, always working. 👌🏽

This detail makes it sadder. Showing us that he did infact consider the darker sides of the job.. That his involvement was dutifully chosen & understood. The positive persona he adopted may even have partly been out of consideration of those around him..

The way they have been depicting Toji's speed in Shibuya. 🔥 It feels even scarier than Hidden Inventory. Slightly different, with minimal speed lines, sound & distortion of form. Almost as if he's teleporting..
A subtle change to convey how he's moving faster to those without
based on how their goals synergise, I feel Gege could go either way & it'll fit, with Kenjaku & Sukuna remaining allies or butting heads later on..
Sukuna wants to evolve himself.
Kenjaku wants to evolve Jujutsu.
Both goals go hand in hand to help further their individual
Seems Kashimo likes to just fight & let the enemy think his CE trait is actually his CT..
I wonder how long it'll take before Sukuna figures that out. Especially since we now know that Sukuna is a master of reading the point of 'Occurance'..

Geto not turning back, walking into the shadows alone.
It's one of those things where they never saw it coming because in their eyes, Geto was the best among them, the purest, the most put together. They probably saw some signs & just wrote them off.

I love this. With people like Gojo & Kashimo, it was more a challenge to Sukuna's mastery of Jujutsu. If he lost then that just meant he wasn't good enough & Sukuna is ready to accept that.
But with Maki it's different. Instead of someone running in the same direction as him,
Sukuna cracked the entire system..
Having the potential for full incantations, Cursed Techniques & gestures while keeping his hands & mouth free..
Evolving past the established standards & limitations set for Jujutsu by all others & walking his own path to enlightenment..
The selfish & self serving one getting to live the dream is in line with the reality & themes of Jujutsu Kaisen..
Something our current gen/heroes should be the first to successfully overturn..
