I watched the 0 film last night and it was loving sick. Gorgeous and well done start to finish.

Although it made me wonder how Okkotsu still has Rika-Chan as his companion given the finale. Part of his training with Miguel I guess?

It gets brought up during his fight with Ryu, I think? Basically the Rika-Chan he has now is different from the one in the movie and is just a copy.

I was rereading the manga recently and it does get brought up specifically while explaining okkotsu's technique. can't remember what it was exactly tho

Nobara's technique seems like it'd be really useful for loving with Geto's big complicated web of interlocked techniques so that's my guess as to what they'll do with her whenever or however she returns.

Worst case scenario is that she's actually dead/going to be dead but they have some weird way of preserving her technique to use it

The big thing I’m expecting is Nobara’s technique to get Geto’s soul back into his body somehow, which would really gently caress Kenjaku up

Grind, you poor fool!
Grind straight for the stars!
All the techniques are real big and flashy now but nothing's been able to top whenever nobara perfectly countered someone's technique and made them look like an rear end in a top hat

The big climax of the series will be all the women that got unceremoniously killed off coming back for the final fight, like that one scene in the avengers and then nothing will come of it.

It's like the climax of Zeta Gundam, with the potential to be equally depressing

I think it was something like, the technique was all Yuta to begin with and he'd just trapped the poor girl in it. she's free, but he has all that power still

Rika (the ghost) passed on but the mass of cursed energy and techniques that Rika was made of was left behind, so Yuta just took that cursed energy and made Rika (the copy).

I think.

They made a big point of showing that Nobara's technique can ping between basically anything with a connection via cursed energy and the entire point of Kenjaku's plan is essentially to connect the world with cursed energy through this big amalgamation of techniques he's developed or produced by burning up cursed spirits- so Nobara could presumably at some point in his big plan do something that resonates across every single sorcerer and person in the culling game since the domain created by it connects everyone.

Maybe it's the speed scans, maybe it's this arc, but I've no clue how the culling game works anymore, nor do I care.

Hope Fake Tsukimi is a fun fight though

Something's up. She's not a reincarnated sorcerer because Kogane's player card shows her real name. Plus, in chapter 136, Kenjaku's idle transformation mark appears on her forehead and she wakes up BEFORE he breaks the seal on the cursed objects of past sorcerers, sparking what I imagine to be the take-over process.

However, in 143, she has bandages on her forehead which suggests it left a lingering mark. This in itself wouldn't be strange, since it may be a side-effect of the technique, but it's interesting that none of the other non-reincarnated sorcerors are shown with that mark. Or maybe they also have that mark but it's not located on their forehead. Either way, Gege purposefully didn't show us anyone else with Kenjaku's idle transformation mark except for Tsumiki.

I don't get it, didn't they want that rule implemented, what's wrong then? Something about Tsumiki is off I guess? But that's supposed to be still her right?

I think it's mostly a shock because Tsumiki was assumed to be an unwilling participant in the culling game and hasn't been present for any of their strategy discussions and so wouldn't know that they had considered OR ruled out the entry/exit rule as an option.

Definitely seems like either she's been compromised by team Kenjaku relatively recently or she's been working to some goal independently.

They decide not to use it because they don't require it anymore and it'll let really bad people out.

There should only be one Sukuna. Yuji does not appear to be possessed by him anymore, the markings around his eyes are gone now.

In tragic news Megumi and his sister are basically dead now.
