Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 254 - Spoilers & Discussion

[Antonho]

Overall it was nice to see Kusa doin something but it's still follows the same formula



But aside from me enjoying Kusa showing something it may be one of the worst chapters in JJK overall? at least for me.

It's almost 50/50 mixed with fight and flashbacks for characters to mention on one page this guy can also do this.

Show don't tell Kusa was long enough in manga to collect those feats along the way.

Also, still no valid explanation why everyone treat it as Gauntlet instead of just jumping all in.

Too many people would just be on the way of each other without some type of plan like some of them had. Sukuna have more experience fighting multiple people together than all of them, so chipping away sukuna strenght is more effective than just jumping him trying to brute force his whole strenght away.

Wasn't expecting Miguel, but if he's here, it means that there's another element that we weren't expecting involved with the plan. Ui ui being ambushed was getting obvious since sukuna was already expecting him. Anyway, i think the point of this chapter was too further explain how simple domains works (maybe yuji will be able to activate it since he was being trained by kusakabe and they may have traded bodies for a moment) and to show more people will join the fight from this moment (probably some of the fallen sorcerers or nobara)

Kusakabe is not a player.

I said back up plan

 

[kingRoXaS]

Miguel only used the Rope right? Never used CT I think

At this point I'm just with the "WTF" Gege is doing group.
The same formula over and over again, doesn't matter if Sukuna is the strongest, doesn't matter with he has an "asspull - deu ex machina" for every situation because he is the god of jujutsu.
At this point we have to question why the allied forces are even bothering to try. It became ridiculous at this point, this shit is not even funny anymore.
Just give up and let Sukuna destroy the world.

Yep

He could do us all a favor and just kill everybody already. Same thing Miguel and Ui Ui.
in the end everybody will lose in 1 or 2 chapters.

And then how did you tell the story?

I get what Gege is doing, but a whole chapter just for kusakabe feels weird. That's why i believe the point of this chapter was more of a start of what gege will do to break the pattern and to better explain simple domains

And then how did you tell the story?

"Sukuna won and reigned of Japan till he died of natural causes" The End

Joking hehe

 

[Bandit99]

What the fuck is point of this manga at this point? It’s literally just a sukuna gauntlet. Every chapter ends with *NEW CHALLENGER*

 

[LYEL]

And then how did you tell the story?

Which story? Is there a story been told in the last 10 chapters?

--- Double Post Merged, Mar 21, 2024, Original Post Date: Mar 21, 2024 ---

"Sukuna won and reigned of Japan till he died of natural causes" The End

Joking hehe

That would be a better story than Twilight.

 

[SanaNeOlm]

I'm getting a bit bored honestly. All of this seems unnecessarily long and pointless. At this point I'm wating for the turning point or a plot twist.

 

[papypopo]

I think the point here is to establish Sukuna as the pinnacle of jujutsu even if he already was in his era. By confronting this new generation of sorcerers the point is to reaffirm his superiority in front of them, to later explain how someone will be able to grow so so much to be able to surpass him. Someone (yuji of course) will surpass him by the end and will be put as the strongest ever be.

I think Gege is going into that way. You all don’t forget that sukuna has dealt with an entire clan in his era (Angel’s clan) and killed them all. His battle experience, his powers and adaptability are far above anyone else, it was state since day one. We are just witnessing it.

I honestly think he's enjoying seeing all the theories about Gojo returning and then just stringing fans along week after week, giving them little teases of Gojo's influence.

 

[Battle Wolf]

In the end, Sukuna will die from a heart attack cause he's using Megumi body

 

[Migi_0]

This loop is starting to get tedious and annoying. Most of the fighters haven't done almost something meaningful against Sukuna. Maybe a POV shift or a flashback about Heian Era could change the state of the manga.

Honestly, seeing the way Gege is writing Sukuna lately, I doubt how Yuji will be able to become strong to kill him alone unless a cheat happens or something out of nowhere.

At this point is more possible having Gojo Return than Yuji winning

It's getting tiring, as most of people here is saying. But I still have hope.

 

[RatibTM]

The fact that Ui Ui is risking his life to obtain the bodies means that there is a way to heal/revive them. Unfortunately, he couldn't obtain Kusa's body, and will die a pointless death.

Mei Mei was just about to lose her Alabama's mate.
