Its exactly my teory. That he learned the truth about jujutsu that its magic and you can turn your cursed energy in oter sh it beyond youre natural born technique.
the biggest piece of evidence you missed was mahoraga slashing gojos arm since as far as we know his adaptations besides gaining invulnerability to a technique is differently manipulating cursed energy to provide a different result !
I feel like the tattoos mean a lot actually. The tattoos are known to be markers of criminals in ancient japan. However, if they were ordinary tattoos, they wouldn’t appear 1000 years later when sukuna is in another body. This would imply the tattoos were imprinted onto his soul rather than just his own physical body
@@Allons-Y-04 it's actually connected to the Buddhist hell. Specifically the 2nd level of Hot Hell, or Tapta Naraka. It's called Kalasutra, or the Black Thread Naraka. The unfortunate karmic sinners who dwell here have black lines running along their body and face, similar to how Sukuna has. These lines allow for precise cleaving and slicing. Sounds familiar?
Guys have you ever noticed that sukuna's original fingers had different patterns? In chapter 111, Jogo shows ten Sukuna's fingers, and there you can notice that they have different shapes, for example, one resembles dirt, and other resembles wood, and other, ice.
I have seen and really like this theory. My only issue is that if that was the case Yuta probably wouldn’t have been able to use cleave by feeding a finger to Rika, since that finger wouldn’t have been the slicing finger.
I like this theory. I’m gonna add to it cuz I truly think this is up Gege’s ally to be witty enough to do this. Apparently shrine and kitchen can be easily mistaken in the Japanese language. Someone correct me if I’m wrong. But I think Sukuna is able to look at the ingredients of the soul/someones cursed energy he’s second only to Gojo and the only reason why Gojo is more capable in that regard is because of the 6 eyes. I think once Sukuna sees the ingredients once he’s able to use is knives to shape it into whatever he desires. It would explain why Yuta is able to gain cleave and copy it but Sukuna is probably looking at them like you don’t even know what you’re really holding. These knives essentially can cut and “refine” cursed energy however I like as long as I know the ingredients. I can see his technique being something super basic like that but also extremely over powered because he’s overpowered
I just thought it was the sheer speed caused a powerful friction that the finger bearer. That line of thought always got me in some sort of assumption bias. This clears up a lot of misunderstand. I'm suprised i forogt.
This is by far the best JJK theory I have ever heard. Not only is this entirely plausible but the rersearch that went into the video to reach this conclusion is insane. Very well done.
I think there's a problem, tho. If this is indeed Sukuna's technique, he should have been able to use Mahoraga's first adaptation to infinity instead of waiting for a second one
@@joshuaanoruo973probably not cuz he did say mahoraga changed the nature of its cursed energy instead of actually putting regular cursed energy into a cursed technique
I've always thought the "box" was just the real name of the technique being censored. The anime seems to confirm this, since we don't get to hear him say the part that corresponds, yet we see his mouth moving.
Very real possibility but I like the whole ‘black box system’ idea nonetheless. Also the ‘fuga’ translation and soul stuff holds even without the black box I think
Fuuga doesn't mean refinement (風雅) in this context. It's a reading given to character for open 開. He says [silence] for the black box and "fuuga" for the open 開. Japanese forum fans said they're pretty sure its Sanskrit since the series has a lot of buddhist references.
He’s called the King of Curses and we have reason to believe he’s done things only the curses could do with their curse techniques, idk where i was going with that
I think maki is getting fire arrowed because of her first death by Jogo it was a hint of things to come and arrow that always hits its target and doesn’t just pierce her but devour her as a whole no cursed energy needed
@@Allons-Y-04 I might I just don’t know how to start but I’ll join a podcast and throw my ideas out there and her katana has mei soul inside or her will but either way that’s weird to think of but I magazine using the sword and the transfiguration of its soul making a new weapon and it’s in the same powers of meis recreation technique but maybe she’ll be used as the spear or maybe his side kick has it but she has to die in order for him to get it like Kenny and tengan
This is genius. Your absolutely correct. Not the changing the way his cursed energy trait cause he couldn't do thay against gojo but expanding what he already knows with what he's seen is crazy
I also thought of this theory once, but I kinda of thought that it was too broken even for Sukuna. It is basically Sukuna being able to attribute a particular property to his cursed energy , similar to cursed energy traits. He can pass his cursed energy through the brain ( the part responsible for jujutsu in general) and also manipulate it to obtain the cursed energy that he desires because overusing it prob causes brain damage. I am imagining it is similar to how reverse cursed energy is processed in the head. It also explains why he understood what Gojo was doing by healing his CT using RCT. Edit: But now that I think about it, the reason Sukuna wasnt able to emulate Mahoraga's first adaptation of altering the essence of its cursed energy, because it was something he was not able to do . Depending on how you interpret it, it means that this is not his cursed technique . I find the concept really cool so hopefully that is the case.
@@joshuaanoruo973 Yeah then I thought that there are limitations to Sukuna's ability to transmute his cursed energy that is based on real properties. But then I realized that he wouldnt be able to do the space dismantle ability. Maybe it is an extremely advanced form of sorcery which involves manipulating the part of the brain responsible for the cursed technique to change the target of the cursed technique.
Maybe he can only assign one trait to his cursed energy at a time. For example, cleave and dismantle might normally have the CE trait of being "sharp", meaning he couldn't then apply Mahoraga's CE trait to bypass infinity without losing the ability to use his cursed energy for cleave and dismantle. If he did change his trait to bypass infinity then he would just be punching Gojo with cursed energy, which he could already do with Domain Amplification anyways.
Replicating kenjaku to learn how to turn into a cursed object , replicating jogo to use fire arrow, replicating mahoraga to use world slash. Yeah, it actually makes sense how "sukuna can learn any techniques just by seeing it once" if his technique truly is "refinement"
When he fights jogo he says something like "i Guess a curse wouldnt know This" wich is implied that anyone can do it and that requires RCT since curses cant use RCT
Nah probably just means a newer curse like Jogoat wouldn’t know, but an older one around his time like Urume, or a very knowledgeable sorcerer like Kenjaku would know
The basis for your theory is very well fleshed and thought out. I'm just offering some food for thought as additions to the ideas you presented. JJK over its course has heavily emphasized the importance of body, mind and spirit being directly interlinked, if not being one and the same thing (all the info revealed in arcs involving Yuji, Mahito, Tengen, Kenjaku, Sukuna, Toji etc.). The human body is a physical manifestation of the soul (and vice versa) as presented by Mahito and his ability to alter peoples souls directly. This also means by extension a persons techniques are a reflection of their body (mind) and soul. The "black box" system of the brain was a key piece of info, as the unique structure and makeup of the brain are different person to person, but also hereditary (hence the JJ sorceror clans). This means everyone will have different innate techniques, but people of similar genetics have higher chances to have the same black box and hence innate technique e.g. ten shadows, infinity etc These same rare techniques likely require a very specific black box system in the brain. Further to the black box, it also explains why Mahito can't alter his own soul directly, as he would change/lose his technique doing so, which forces an impossible paradox. Further to all of this. I believe the black box is a conduit or housing for the soul itself, or perhaps a part of it. The evidence is the same evidence you presented e.g. Sukuna visiting everyone he has killed in their "minds" or souls directly. Also everything I mentioned prior. I also believe domain expansions are a physical manifestation of the black box of the brain (which is a conduit/housing to the soul and it's innate techniques) You are expanding the domain of your soul into reality, by opening your black box conduit into the physical world by using a barrier. You literally bring out your innate techniques of the black box housing by opening and manifesting your black box conduit using cursed energy/sorcery, but the condition is to provide a housing (barrier) for said domain. The barrier acts as the box itself. This explains why domains gives sure hit, as you are literally within the inner workings of what creates your innate technique. This is why domains are the epitome of JJ. It is also why barrierless domains are akin to painting a masterpiece without a canvas, because your black box and soul don't need barriers setup as a condition to open up and extend out into reality. Your black box must be freely open by other means. Note how Sukuna has a barrierless domain here. Now onto several theories. Sukuna - his innate technique/s likely involves what you mentioned. Some form of dissimilation i.e. breaking down (dismantle and cleave for physical matter), but he is applying them insanely smartly, to more than just matter e.g. souls. He might do it indirectly by interacting with the black box or conduit/housing of the soul. This would explain many things (appearing to Jogo and other kills, directly in their black box i.e. conduit and housing to the soul). The reverse of this technique would be to assimilate i.e. building up or storing. Sukuna has learnt to break open his black box, as well as the boxes of others. He breaks open their black box, learns the working of the technique, and then builds and assimilates the techniques back into his own black box. He can learn how hereditary techniques work, but cannot store them as those require a specific black box make up i.e. brain. This explains his expert level use of ten shadows. "Fuga" might be Sukuna breaking down i.e. opening his black box, allowing him direct access to his domain holding his techniques and soul. This allows him to directly modify his cursed technique into the other forms he has assimilated or learnt. Sukunas black box or domain, malevolent shrine is also barrierless. Likely because he can freely open his black box conduit to his soul and extend it out into reality freely. He does not need a barrier to contain his domain, he just projects it directly from his open black box brain/conduit to his soul. Sukuna also broke apart his soul into the 20 fingers using his own technique. Just as an aside. Now for even more theories, and to the core of Kenjaku and Yukis commentary of purging jujutsu/cursed energy permanently. Toji and Maki - their Heavenly restrictions likely relate to some hereditary makeup of their black box in their brains. It is likely super inefficient in storing and consuming cursed energy into techniques, given Yukis commentary on Toji when talking to Kenjaku . Hence stored cursed energy is directed from the soul to the body, instead of to manifesting innate cursed techniques. This black box however is so extremely rare and also variable, Toji and Maki are the only known people like this, with "0" apparent CE. Meaning this "solution" of making everyone super inefficient at using CE is not viable at scale. Yuji - is part of Kenjakus puzzle/ alternate answer to Yukis proposal. I think Yuji was born without a soul, he is a "human" cursed object. This distinction is important to make, as he will abide by the mind, body and spirit relationship from earlier. This is why he cannot be targeted by Mahito.The soul is the housing of cursed energy for CT. It's also why he has no CT as he has no soul. I also think he is likely the opposite of a heavenly restriction. He is likely extremely efficient at storing and using CE because of all of this. He has a massive empty battery where his soul should be, and his black box os extremely efficient at using CE. However it's almost like an inverse heavenly restriction though (unholy restriction), so he was born with no technique and no abilities, but with infinite potential. Since he was exposed to housing Sukuna, who juiced him up and exposed him to CE and CT to his black box and empty soul. It is also why he was such a good cage for Sukuna and why he uses black flashes so readily and easily. Lastly, I also think Yuji is part of the solution to the merger. He will likely house all of the souls at the end of all of it. Sukuna will set off the merger using megumis body, break down and merge all the souls into Yuji, who will house them. We will likely get a super bitter ending as everyone essentially dies. Even Sukuna is overwhelmed and killed by Yuji. And Yuji is left essentially cursed to live eternally, holding all the cursed energy in the world.
Fire arrow is sukuna curse technique Reversal Let assume his ct is dismantle which allows him to separate matter at sub-atomic level His ultimate art is cleave an dismantle which can be customised for cutting opponent in one single slash That how he was able to customise his cuts with maharaga adaptibility His curse technique Reversal should be him able to collapse matter at sub atomic level ie an atomic bomb Which he shoots as an Arrow (Opposite of separating atoms ) If sukuna technique works at sub-atomic level that would explain why six eyes cant see the slashes since six eyes work atomic level Only reason maharaga saw the slash was because he adapted to it I know i plot armour but adaptability is a plot armour
@@Allons-Y-04 you said fuga means refinement but i searched the same It does mean refinement but it also means good taste Maybe sukuna like the taste of what he was gonna cook 😂 I don't know man its a theory i came up with while watching your video
@@ajeetchoudhary6645 Again if his technique worked at a subatomic level wouldn't it pass through infinity? because it kinda goes under he radar of six eyes because it perceives things at an atomic level Or Gojo is able to stop it by sensing the cursed energy of it perhaps.
Sukuna changing the nature of his cursed energy and doing other CT's like hitting Jogo with fire is what I had initially thought. But Kinda dumped it out cause Sukuna said that he can't change the essence of his CE. Hence why he couldn't copy what Mahoraga did in the first adaptation.
Low key separating cursed energy and cursed techniques and making it separate with out killing the person it’s a clean extraction and with ur technique gone doesn that mean u have no energy or u have what u can hold then that’s it or do u have no energy because ur technique was extracted now we have maki and toji walking all over
It might be soon that you'll shine on anime explanation contents, I already watch you as a quality content creator but found out you only have around 1.7k subs!
I think the very first finger bearer fight could also relate to Sukuna in some fashion. The finger bearer did not have a technique it was just firing out bursts of cursed energy. Sukuna could have a similat technique which on paper would be garbage tier for most people as it is very generic, but when pushed to its utter limits we have Sukuna
Awesome theory and very very close to what I thought may be the truth behind it all. I think you're spot on with the black box thing, but its not an ability he has but rather a super high level and difficult incantation that most sorcerers cannot pull off for various reasons. Something that other sorcerers knew about during the Heian era but have forgotten as time has passed and the difficulty in mastering and using it.
Fuga is an originally German word for English translation Fugue. Fugue is a type of music where there’s one theme repeated over and over but with different styles and techniques interwoven together and developed to be more complex than the theme by itself. Often using lots of counterpoint (a type of music in itself) to overlay the theme. This fits Sukuna very well as well. He has a main theme, but he can use it with many different variations and different techniques, and they’re always a wonderful counter(point) to his enemy. It’s also just a really cool word.
this could explain that time gojo said sukunas technique would be put into yujis body as well which is why yuji has so much knowledge of the soul since he got it from sukuna being in his body
btw sukuna's domain didnt produce flames on the finger bearer that just a special fx in the anime when it gets exorcised , when megumi fights the finger bearer and beats him it also does the purple flame fx so that point is wrong
Funny enough, "Malevolent Shrine", in Italian, has been translated to "Reliquiario Demoniaco", which can be translated to both "Malevolent Shrine" and also to "Weaponry of the demon(s)". If the translation directly comes from the Japanese directly to the Italian, then basically his different assimilated curse are "stored" as within the "black box" that materialize in Sukuna's Domain Expansion. This may also explain **spoiler from manga*** Why Sukuna cannot use other curse technique such as the fire arrow now: because the shrine has been crushed by Gojo during the battles of domains!
This was an amazing video! There haven’t been many theories that I actually believed could hold weight but dude I could see this being pretty damn close to what it actually is
2:33 Sukuna can't transmute or change his CE properties. In chapter 236, Sukuna said, that he waited for Mahoragas second adaptation, because: "In the first one, Mahoraga was changing essence of it's own curse energy, that was something I WASN'T able to do".
Don’t think people realize how good this theory is. Cause yes dismantle and cleave are his inate technique. But the idea of his changing his box system. Means he does not need o change his CE but just the box to get different input. This is further backed by how yuji has no CT. But as gojo said he would gain the ability’s of sukuna. Thus now Yuji has a soul ability that allows him to understand others CT like using blood manipulation. Which Yuji never has a Ct thus black box had an input which we know Yuji has Ce but never got an output. Now with sukuna “ability “ he can change the box system to get an output. If this is true what CTs have he learned.
Gege said that Yuji's memory stuff isn't a curse technique. Maybe it's not a curse technique. Something no one is talking about is how both binding vows and barriers are separate from curse techniques. It's entirely probably that a vow, heavenly or otherwise, can be at work here. This implies something people are overlooking. You can have an innate domain without a curse technique, just like how you can have a curse technique without a body that can use it. Junpei had a curse technique but did not have a body that could execute it. This distinction was integral to Kenjaku's marking plan for the culling games. Yuji might not have a curse technique, and what he is currently doing and has done may not be Curse Technique related, but just straight up hands and other mechanical aptitude like barrier and binding vows and innate domains. There is a very high possibility that Yuki's soul research is related to Innate Domains.
im guessing sukuna's cursed technique is something related to hell and worship. His domain handsign belongs to Enma-Tenin, who is the king of hell and death in Buddism. Thats probably why he can manipulate fire. His cleave and dismantle are definitely related to worship, possibly representing sacrifice, seeing as how theyre slashing attacks. His black box might also be a place where he keeps elements related to worship or hell as well, but one thing we know FOR SURE in the manga is that the "black box" is the area where cursed techniques are stored within the brain, so we dont know the full extent of sukuna's powers yet
I play this game called Nioh 2. Theres a Ryomen Sukuna boss there, two faces, four arms and legs. One side wields FIRE element, SWORD and AXE. The other side wields the ICE element and a BOW. There’s parallels there with the fire arrow, dismantle and cleave, and Uraume but it’s still a stretch since it came from a game, which takes characters from history and put their own twist to it.
Finally someone mentioned Nioh 2. There depiction of Sukuna is pretty close to the irl lore. Based comment! All the yokai in nioh 2 are close 1:1 of their IRL lore. Ryomen Sukuna is no exception. Team Ninja the game Dev's wouldn't make stuff up outta nowhere. It isn't really a stretch.
@@da_001 yeah. Their depictions are pretty great. I just didnt want to based it all from there since it’s a different depiction from what Gege has BUT there are some cool connection you could definitely make like the odachi and axe being the dismantle and cleave, for example. Kinda funny too because Sukuna in that game also took over a body
I always thought and still think the fire arrow use is similar to how he used world slash from mahoraga, he can use the core of Jujutsu, which is how he learned both fire arrow and world slash. As for his form, i think he can merge with people like tengen can, that's why he looks like tengen. Yuji thinks that megumi's soul can be saved if it sukuna doesn't have a soul merging ability. It would be super jjk if it turns out sukuna can merge with people like tengen can and ends up merging with megumi's soul, completely destroying megumi and maybe he got four arms and 2 mouths probably because he merged with his twin brother like tengen does to the Star plasma vessel. Plus sukuna ate tengen's embryo.
@@Allons-Y-04 i personally believe it's merging, like how tengen merges with a star plasma vessel, but not idle transfiguration because idle transfiguration can manipulate others souls but not one's own and definitely not "merging" with another soul. Sukuna eating the embryo could prove important later on. That's also why i brought up the twin brother point as this explains why he's one soul, as he merged with his twin
well now we know that his technique is actually called shrine, cleave is its main technique while dismantle is a somewhat advanced application, or specific to sukuna seeing as yuji only uses/has used cleave so far. his fire arrow is called furnace, and whether the shrine is the black box or a space in his brain where his former brothers technique resides is yet to be revealed
i thought that too but the way mahoraga adapts is by transmuting his CE and sukuna said he couldn't do that so he needed maho to adapt further so he could copy the adaptation
the soul thing might be his own tchnique, and black box it's just sukuna being a genius in jujutsu, as it is for his domain, a god-like feature due to he understanding jujutsu at its core
The thing about a bloc box system is that there can be external dependencies, so perhaps Sukuna can't replicate ten shadows because perhaps Megumi is a vessel chosen for the technique, so simply mimicking Megumi isn't enough. That could be why he needed to possess Megumi specifically
This is one of the most logically thought out JJK theories I've ever heard. The fact that his domain expansion technique is not in an enclosed space like everyone else, is a testament to how long he has been continuously adapting/evolving his power.
Looking at his nickname the King of Curses, it could be as simple as that. He has his inherent techniques but Fuga (elegance, grace) could be almost like a king's domain where being the king of curses hes allowed to open cursed energy to copy other curses techniques. Fuga can also mean "good taste" which is another play on words dealing with food which sukuna as we know is a chef.
Hear me out. Maybe’s Sukuna’s technique is called “Shrine” …. Definition : “a place regarded as holy because of its associations with a divinity or a sacred person or relic, marked by a building or other construction. A shrine can also be a place that is honored because of some connection with a famous person or event.” Sukuna is titled as the king of curses. Angel referred to him as the fallen one. What if his technique is that of a god and so he was supposed to perform certain duties within the realm of jujutsu; however he decided to do things his own way. His technique allows himself to act as a temple that people can worship, pray to, and offer gifts (techniques, weapons, cursed energy, soul/body and binding vows)… this is why sukuna is able to understand any and every phenomenon because he’s been offered so much and has seen a wide range of techniques during the times people offered him their gifts…. When sukuna summons his DE, you see a shrine with mouths and it’s surrounded by corpses which most likely symbolises all those who have offered to be sacrificed by sukuna thinking they’d be rewarded by a king/ godly being but have only died and became apart of sukuna.
This makes so much sense, especially when you think about the world cutting slash, a Slash that is created by refining dismantle to the point that it cuts through space. 10/10 theory my boy
One thing i am a lil confused about is if sukunas true curse technique is ct creation why are dismantle and cleave the malevolent shrine sure hit of his domain? ,we know domains are made from the innate technique of the soul unless sukuna can somehow change the abilities of his shrine to a new sure hit kinda like yutas domain being able to use one of his copied techniques as the sure hit but this would be pretty busted since he would probably be able to have a domain of fire arrows or whatever other abilities he has in the black box☠️☠️
@@Allons-Y-04 it is definitely possible that doing it is a risky thing, because it might actively involve manipulating the part of the brain used for sorcery so he maybe has to use it sparingly.
Yuta can use a Ct that he copied as a surehit , Kenjaku can use AG as the sure hit(its the Ct of a sorcerer he bodyhoped into) it would make sense that Shrines Sure hit is a Ct he created
To support your theory more, you have to remember what happened with Kenjaku. His ability to swap bodies was an innate/self-made technique, and yet Sukuna was the "only other person to do it on their own." This means that Sukuna made himself a cursed object separate from Kenjaku's work, which is probably how he ended splitting himself apart.
Hey I have some thoughts on this that I’d like to expound upon mainly that Cursed techniques are all derived from a base technique. Over the centuries Jujutsu sorcerers have “refined” these techniques via binding vows. Take blood manipulation for example. Keshizu had a limitation on his ability to freely manipulate blood but in return his blood became insanely corrosive. The more basic a technique is the more inefficient it is in terms of cursed energy but simultaneously more versatile and potentially powerful in the hands of a truly talented sorcerer.
For example creation is an incredibly basic technique. You can create anything but it is an incredibly inefficient technique. But if you made a binding vow to limit your cursed technique “creation” to a certain object. Say bullets, the efficiency in which you can create bullets becomes exceptionally greater. This ritual would bind the changes to the sorcerers basic technique to their innate domain which is passed on in the cycle of reincarnation.
this theory would also explain how yuji can interact with the soul, since it was stated a while back that the longer sukuna resides in yuji's body, the more likely sukuna's technique will naturally manifest. until now that has seemed like a large plot hole or forgotten plot, but if your theory is correct, that would mean that yuji did in fact obtain sukuna's technique, or at least some extension/variation of it.
My guess is assimilating cursed tools, and cursed techniques that can be held as weapons. Like a bow, or executioner's sword. He seems more interested in weapons than he does techniques. During higuruma trial, he says he coukdnt care less about what hes done, he just wants to see the sword. The girls with phone, he picks it up and realises its just part of her technique, gets disappointed, scoffs and crushes it. Would make sense if box is just a shrine that literally holds weapons.
This assumes dismantle and cleave were the literal knives in the drawing, and that he can hold so many weapons 'on hand' and others get stored. 4 weapons with 4 arms, 2 weapons with 2 arms
Melting the ice block Uraume brought is possibly the biggest thing I can think of to go against this, but maybe he was just holding fire effect with one of his hands, and only has to go through bow process to make it significantly stronger,
Very great idea , fits someone like sukuna who keeps talking about how jujutsu is something to understand how it functions , and not just spam attacks u were born with at ur opponent
@@jordanmorris5194from what we seen has has to chant open to use fire arrow so no way can that be his innate techinque especially when his domain is to do with slashes.
I like tjis theory it makes sense since before chanting "fuga" he tells jogo he will fight him with his own specialty probably doesn't mean anything but it does make sense imo
I love the theory, but im pretty sure it was debunked in his fight with gojo. In which if i recall correctly, they explain Maharoga's ability to adapt as well transmuting his cursed energy, which sukuna then says he can't do.
Gojo being born with the quality’s to be the strongest while sukuna (even tho we don’t know his history) has to refine and evolve his abilities to eventually become the strongest😮💨the duality’s in jjk always go crazy fr
I thought so too until I realised that didn't happen to the other one Megumi exorcised. Also Kenjaku said cursed spirits just turn to dust when they die, which is what we normally see happen.
Reincarnated sorcerers can change their morphology back to their original forms. I remember gege mentioning how yorozo already changed her face and body back to how it was 1000 years ago, it's something reincarnated sorcerers are capable in doing.
The best theory I have seen concerning Sukuna's 'black box' fire arrow is that it's Sukuna's Cursed Technique Reversal. This would explain why cursed spirits would not know about it because they can't do CTR. Sukuna's cleave and dismantle are slash attacks that divide things, right? Now this may be a bit of a stretch but Sukuna can literally slash empty space so, let's assume these slashes can force divide things even to the atomic level. A CTR of this would be to force combined things. Combining things at the atomic level creates nuclear fusion, a literal nuke. It makes sense to me because of its insane firepower. I'm inclined to belive this more because the 'black box' isn't a literal black box, it's just censorship to hide whatever it is Sukuna was saying. I mean the subtitle represented it as a white box lol. And Yuta already copied the technique, if there is anything amazing or OP about Sukuna's CT, Yuta would have hit him with it. He hit Sukuna with a cleave, the strongest application of Sukuna's CT that does not require an expanded target or CTR.
maybe the fire arrow wasn't even fire, maybe it was like yamamoto's flames which are just busted spiritual pressure that looks and works like a flame. maybe sukuna just made his cursed energy into something similar just to mock jogo. sukuna might be able to open the black box and just refine his cursed energy giving it different properties but not making new techniques or actually emulating those of others, cuz that would be too redundant with all the sorcerers that we've already got that have multiple techniques imo.
I love the theory, it’s very well put together. My theory is the black box is a compartment in his demonic feretory. And the feretory is built like a Buddhist stupa. The stupa representing the 5 elements and the mastery over them which leads to enlightenment. I also thought sukunas soul was stored away in a similar compartment in the feretory, making him essentially immortal. Kinda like Voldemort did in Harry Potter 🤷🏽♂️
here have a random crackhead theory, sukunas true cursed tech: creation he can ouput any technique using the chant to command a refined output allowing him to copy and create anything he wants. this could use massive amounts of CE so he doesnt like to spam it, with the reverse tech of course being destruction the ability to slice something into atoms effectively deleting it from existance.
My interpretation of the brain being a “black box” was that using reverse cursed techniques to heal it is dangerous because you’re mucking about with something you don’t understand and it could mess you up
nuh uh, there's a ton of things wrong here 1. the black box isn't literal, it's just a censor for something sukuna says before fuga 2. 開 (fuga) just means "open" 3. historical sukuna has two swords and a bow&arrow, implying that jjk sukuna only has dismantle, cleave, and the fire bow and extensions of those like world-cutting slash 4. finger bearer doesn't turn into fire in the manga and kinda just poofs away the sukuna weird soul communication is something i didn't properly notice though nice pointing that out also even though i completely disagree with your theory, with sukuna's technique being called 御厨子 (shrine/kitchen) by yorozu, and with the "shrine" definition specifically meaning a buddhist shrine where sacred items are stored, you could say that it's a reference to sukuna storing cursed techniques
the flames on the fingerer are just an effect of the fingers getting taken from them and them dying since the same happened when Megumi later killed a fingerer
That’s actually really cool theory. The only question I have revolves around Yuta’s curse technique, since I always thought he copies another person’s curse technique, rather than its applications and attacks, but when he copies Sukuna’s technique, he only copies cleave. Perhaps he doesn’t know any other way it can be used, so he used regular cleave, or Sukuna’s curse technique is really just cleave and dismantle, which would be kind of unsatisfying resolution to all the build up. Kinda want to be proven wrong about it
My bets on reverse curse technique. The hint was something that curse spirit wouldn't know, but something non-curse sprite would. RCT fits this description since it's something a natural curse would logically stay away from.
Another thing to Just refine your theory that would probably just down right make your theory really valid is that sukuna can literally look at mahoragas adaption to infinity and downright cut through the space between from sheer analyzation. It was never stated that sukuna could "adapt" his cleave and dismantle only adapt its output after a cleave or dismantle has hit but didnt do signifigant damage but if thats the case only the output should be adapted NOT gaining a trait of bypassing pockets of space unless the adaption of output has a passive trait of fuga "Refine". He had to of used the black box method and "Refine" His cleave to gojos infinity or the passive trait of the black boxc in his technique adapted. Either way, hes manipulating his soul "Well not to a degree of mahito" but manipulating his adaption to techiniques thats sukunas actual power. yes cleave and dismantle are his innate techniques but the reason why they have the properties of adaption and the fact he has a barrierless domain, it all makes sense that he has soul manipulation and also strengthens the fact he can put himself as a cursed object.
But in chapter 236 he literally stated that he could not apply mahoraga 's first adaptation of limitless to his dismantles because he can not change the essence of his own cursed energy and maho's first adaptation was doing that exactly. So how can you say he can transmute the cursed energy to give it different properties ?? Explain please ?
@@Allons-Y-04 different how transmutation is changing of essence and he literally said he cannot change essense of his cursed energy and if that so he already would have Bypassed infinity without the help of mahoraga. But i have a much better theory regarding his open ability if you want i can tell you here.
@@sawanpancholi7366 Mahoraga used adaptation to not register infinity for the first time which sukuna couldn't do. As it was mahoragas technique. Then mahoraga actually upgraded his slash to cut the infinity which sukuna was able to copy. It's literally stated dude.
I think his CT is based around cooking. even his DE was called Malevolent Kitchen and it would make sense as he is a cannibal. He cooks with fire and prepares with cleave and slash. He also carrys around Uraume as a freezer of sort.
Something i find interesting about Sukuna is that he looks a lot like an *Asura* from Buddhist beliefs, they are war themed demigods with enourmous power that inhabit one of the 6 realms of Samsara like Humans and Divas do in their respective realms, but they have 6 arms and eyes (3 heads/faces), while sukuna only has 4 arms and 4 eyes (2 faces), so this comparison makes Sukuna look like an "incomplete" Asura Funnily enough, with Mahito's final form having a resemblence to Sukuna, it kinda feels like he could be Sukuna's missing piece Or maybe it's the other way around and Sukuna has Mahito's "missing pieces" Perhaps Sukuna *_took_* a big piece of the previous incarnation Human curse spirit which once looked like an Asura in the past Maybe this could also be why Sukuna could damage Mahito's soul, bc he has a connection to it, kinda like how Nobara can damage people by damaging a piece of their bodies(?
i think the blck box is like a neural network, the neural network tries to adjust its weights, based on its inputs to generate specific output, a kind of refinement or fine tunning , and mahoraga powers also works in a similar way
So yall see Yujis arms in the fight with him, Yuta and Sukuna? I think he's changing the shape of his soul because he has Sukunas cursed technique! Sukunas slashes aren't knives specifically, but AIR! HES UNIRONICALLY THE AVATAR USING THE AIR TO CUT🤣 That's why Mahoraga was able to SEE👀 his cursed technique. So he has Fire, Air, what else?
Personally I think that Sukuna's true body is theoretically possible for everyone You made a comparison with Mahito and I think that his transformation is similar When Mahito transformed he stated that this is the true shape of his soul, Sukuna's true body is the same that is soul In his purest The difference is that Idle Transfiguration is a cheat in JJK, the story pushes the souls importantce and Mahito could grow as quickly because he interacted with his soul, he fails because he considered the soul no different then a common object, and maybe because he cheated his way to the form it limited his potential Sukuna I think on the other hand I think did it the proper way, he understood his soul, valued it and brought it to reality, and the reason why his form is unnatural and yet somehow still works with no issues is because it his soul shaped the body without care of physical limitations
