Hey everyone!  I'm back with Jujutsu Kaisen season 2, episode 23!  WOW you guys.........this was a LOT to take in!!!  Not-Geto just made a ton of Yujis, one of which is Fushiguro's sister. ...the Jujutsu Headquarters came up with quite a story as to what really happened....and basically everyone's getting executed?!?!  I was SO happy to see our boy Yuta come back, but dang, I didn't think it would be like this!  Poor Inumaki, btw!!  I'm embarrassed that I got confused at the end, but I think I can put together the gist of what's happening here.  What a season!!!!!!!  Can't wait for how on earth they're gonna resolve this next time!!  Enjoy!  ~ MH

I'm really late to leaving my comment on the finale of this incredible season & I know people have clarified things you were confused about although I think you understood most of what happened in this episode so my comment might not add much but I still wanted to leave my own two cents. I'm glad that the comments are able to help you understand things more with this relatively complicated show. I think it’s so cool that they added in Yuta drawing his katana into the opening I immediately noticed & got so hype. I think it’s interesting to hear the differences in Noritoshi & Yuki’s mindsets & beliefs when it comes to how mankind should advance. She wants to get rid of cursed energy he wants to make cursed the best it can possibly be. Yuki thinks in her head that she needs to give Larue(who was one of Geto’s followers before the parasite took over his body & said he was going to remain neutral) time to prepare something it’s interesting that she is working with someone who would normally be a villain/antagonist. Basically before he died Yuki wanted to study him to try to figure out how to get other people to have no cursed energy like Toji & seemed to have given up when he died but for some reason she is going back to this plan assumedly because of something she figured out on her travels around the world and observations of things. It’s crazy to think about the possibility of humans being used as energy for Tengen because he would need to assimilate a new host more often because of the power it would take to continually allow everyone in Japan to be sorcerers which is what Yuki thinks is Noritoshi’s plan. It’s terrifying to think about nations going to war over this because of the interesting fact that there are more sorcerers born in Japan than other countries especially American because militarily America tends to overreact to things & does a lot of bad things because of its overreactions IMO. My personal theory as to why there are more sorcerers in Japan is because Japan is where sorcerers/cursed energy in this universe. It’s crazy that he has been trying to make cursed energy stronger in many different ways & has always failed despite how powerful he is it just shows how far-reaching & earth shattering his plan/desires are as well as how much power it will take to make his plan happen. The idea that he has decided to make things go out of everyone’s control including his own to make the future he wants possible that kind of chaos is terrifying. It sucks that because of how far Mahito was pushed it just made Noritoshi stronger. It shows how good he is at planning that even though he probably wasn’t counting on as much of a power up as Mahito got but still factored it in as a possibility if he was weaker when absorbed the Transfiguration on the entire country using Tengen’s as a conduit basically would have probably still worked but just been less effective but considering what Noritoshi is like he probably would have found a way to make it work/had backup plans. Who would have guessed that Megumi’s sister being cursed would be connected to/caused by what seems to be as of right now the main villain of this series it’s an amazing twist. Especially from a story standpoint because it means that his sister will be a possessed villain & the most interesting thing that could happen in my opinion is a brother having to fight his sister & would lead to great character stuff for Megumi even if it will be dark/sad because as an anime only I have no idea if there is any way to help her. The thought of how many dangerous sorcerers & cursed people like Yuji but without control is terrifying and a lot of these new sorcerers won’t mean to be dangerous but may end up that way because they have to defend themselves because of Noritoshi’s plans. I love the faith Yuki has in humanity unfortunately Noritoshi is the kind of villain who has so many plans he has plans for his plans. And I think my favorite kind of villain is one like him who is so cold, calculating with his plans & has contingencies it makes them much more menacing as villains. I love how useful Choso has immediately been since joining our side especially this episode revealing that his attack on Uraume was poisonous disabling their ice giving everyone the freedom to fight Noritoshi. Unfortunately this is when he shows us just how powerful Geto’s cursed spirit manipulation is by unleashing a unbelievable amount of curses. And curses in this show have always had disturbing but great designs but I think the curses we see here have the best designs we have seen so far. I love how everyone’s reactions & the music shows how grim this situation is as well as how momentous of a change this is to the JJK world. Also, Kusakaba just closing his eyes in the face of this terrible situation & all the stress is a mood for sure. It was such a cruel thing for Noritoshi to show off Gojo when he knew none of them would be able to get to him. You really feel the emotion of loss with Yuji’s voice acting. And now the world has been brought back to 1000 years ago in terms of the amount & power of sorcerers. Interesting fact the Heian period is the era in Japan from 794 to 1186 A.D. & ironically to me at least it means peace in Japanese which is the exact opposite of this situation. It’s intriguing at least for me that when Noritoshi basically says don’t disappoint me it’s hard to tell if he’s talking about Yuji or Sukuna it could be both honestly. Cutting away from this scene like a TV turning off was a dick move but I kind of love it for the shock value of not knowing what immediately happens next. It makes me wonder if we will get any flashbacks of the rest of this battle but it might not be necessary. I know some people who didn’t like how the show focused so much on the government & civilians I guess because we can figure out that these would be the type of reactions of the normal people after everything that just happened. I think the main thing is the crazy decision to reveal cursed spirits & all the destruction & death caused by the spirits Noritoshi unleashed thereby creating more curses because of negative emotions which is the unfortunate cycle of the JJK world. These are probably the most important thing here because of how momentous a change these things are causing for everyone especially the fact that an entire area of Japan most of the areas around Tokyo which is a crazy scale to think about. It’s interesting how they involve Tengen by extending his own barrier over this entire area which is the Tokyo Prefecture trying to contain as many curses as possible I assume. For me it’s super interesting to see the more mundane side of the supernatural world of JJK. Also there is a simple sort of horror to the reporter/cameraman dying, followed by relaxing classical music & the women watching not even realizing what they were seeing before being killed by a curse. The scene with the little girl & the curse is basically a horror movie and while I wouldn’t say I love it because I don’t like horror movies I think it’s a great scene because of the way it emphasizes the consistent theme for the curses of how unnatural/terrifying they are as a concept. This might be one of the scariest curses because of how it acts like an Anglerfish to lure in unsuspecting victims. And I feel bad for the girl that the only reason this thing almost got this girl is because she is a kind person who was worried about someone else. It was so hype to see Yuta come back here saving this girl. I love how we are immediately reminded about the great things about him seeing how kind & gentle he is with this scared & confused little girl. As well as his insane strength because of being related to a really strong ancient sorcerer & having Rika with him. I’m sure it will be explained eventually in the story but I’m confused about how Rika is still here because in the movie she passed on to the afterlife. The explanations I can come up with without the show giving us any information is that he’s talking to her even though she is not really there because it’s like a she’s still with me in spirit kind of thing or when she went to the other side she left all her power behind with Yuta but knowing this show it’s probably something I would never guess in a million years. I love the consideration for the girl by stopping her from having to see all blood once he realizes she can see curses. And then we get to the moment when you are excited about Yuta until the rug is pulled out from under us with the reveals that he is currently working for the Jujutsu society higher ups & wants to kill Yuji because of the awful thing that happened Toge. And there is a mistranslation here because Toge only lost one arm from being too close to Sukuna’s big attack. I really want to hope that Yuta is bluffing/doing a double agent thing but I don’t think so and that’s because based on his reaction to someone hurting his friends in the movie I think it makes sense for him to react this way to Yuji even if it is not completely logical because he is understandably emotional right now and to be honest I wouldn’t be surprised if the higher ups are not being completely truthful about everything with him. What I do actually think & hope is going to happen is that during the inevitable fight that he & Yuji get to talking and they come to understands each other & in the process Yuta is convinced to join the side of sorcerers who I think are against the higher ups only because they want to help people & the higher ups are preventing that with their BS. And as people have been saying in the comments the orders the higher ups have put into place are mostly not true and meant only to benefit as the best way to make sure Gojo is never released because of how much trouble he’s always caused them wanting to change sorcerer society from the ground up basically which they don’t want just because they want to keep all their power so have made up some convenient lies for that purpose. And even if they had the right information which they might not they don’t care. And what works out even better for them is that Gojo can’t defend himself from the flimsy “evidence” of “Geto” being alive to justify their insanity & they can easily discredit the people who know the truth because most of them are kids or people who sorcerer society doesn’t really trust like Yuki. Although it sounds like Yuki is planning on challenging this sort of stuff soon which makes me wonder who she was talking about when she asked what are you going to do I assumed Yuta but maybe she was wondering what the higher ups next move was going to be. Also interesting how she is a neutral party in all of this. One thing I wanted to say is the higher ups plan doesn’t even make since because of how dangerous the world has become because while they don’t care about civilians not really even if they would say otherwise they should care about themselves and even though Gojo hates then he would protect then in my opinion they are just being extremely shortsighted because of how power-hungry they are. I have to say I have seen some crazy paradigm shifts such complete changes to a world/story before but I have to say that what happened in this episode is up there as one of the craziest of those types of extreme changes & I love it but it scares me to think about what is to come in the story for the characters with we love. I think it’s both sad & cool that Yuji now has permanent scars after this arc. First time watching this episode I was confused about what the clap was about but it does make sense that he was calling all the curses to him after the way Yuji talked about his role being killing curses. I really appreciate how this show is willing to slow down & linger on scenes at times. Also the detail of the hole becoming bigger is a blackout getting worse it’s scary & another good example of showing us the destruction. It’s crazy to think about what has happened in such a short time. This was an awesome season & I really can’t wait for the show to come back. Awesome reaction & thoughts & keep up the great work. :-) <3

This is something I thought about after writing that first comment. We still don’t know the status/well-being of characters like Maki & Nobara. We know Yuji is okay physically, mentally who knows & I think we can assume Megumi is okay having last seen him with the principal & Shoko but possibly on the run and most other characters who are still alive are most likely in varying states of what could be called “okay”. I think the not knowing is what makes me more worried about the characters. Also I would love to know what you think of the theories/ideas of where the story might go & I know it’s been a while but I would be interested in hearing about any theories/ideas you have about where the story might go even if you think those ideas are crazy. The more I think about this season the more I realize how much I love this show. Your reactions to the season were really fun & enjoyable. I’m looking forward to where the story goes next although I am slightly worried about the adaption because of all the bad stuff going on with Mappa but hopefully it will be fine. And I can’t wait to see your journey with this story continue as well. Once again I love the content you create & keep up the great work. :-) <3

Hey! I know it's taken me forever! I just wanted to let you know that I read through your comments! I'm super behind so I'll probably be making my responses a bit shorter just so that I can finally sit down and read through them but I wanted to thank you for your insights and for clarifying some things for me! There was so much going on here and I'm grateful for the comments that can help me sort through what was happening! The Yuta hype was so real lol, also you made a good point that there are still characters we didn't really get any news about. What a season!!! Thank you again for all your kindness and patience! ^_^
