My one complaint is that I think the overall story composition lacks a little. It feels like there are a lot of abrupt jump cuts that leave a lot out sometimes. Especially with regards to flashbacks.

“Society should protect the weak and keep the strong in check. You see Satoru, Jujutsu exists to protect non-jujutsu users.”

Everything about this volume was so delightful I couldn't help but squeal a lot.

Seriously, I don't know what I was expecting when I started to read it, but it wasn't quite expecting the very different perspective that we got to explore more of the characters, the story, and the world in general.

It was clever and funny, filled with interesting ideas and the gut-wrenching knowledge that something terrible looms just around the corner like a nightmare it had me hooked and raving in instants.

“Those who are focused on a single way to win are easy to manipulate when presented with the opportunity.”

The characters, though familiar, were all really refreshing and interesting to get to know better... or, rather, to get to understand better.

I'll admit, that the change in perspective disoriented me a little at first but, well, I can hardly argue with the way it expands and details the events that are currently happening. After all, our present is hardly ever standing alone in an isolated, frozen moment.

Let's not forget that it was also rather amusing.

Seeing the personal beliefs of certain characters also shed some light on their actions, as it's often the case, and made it all the more fascinating.

“Anyway, it should be okay. We’re the strongest.”

This was a lot more fun than I was expecting... and also way much tenser than I had thought.

I need to grab the next volume ASAP.

RTC.

I am beyond excited to finally be reading this volume as, finally, here starts what I don't know about the story and I AM ALL HERE FOR IT.

I suspect, rather strongly, that things are going to go very wrong soon, way sooner than later, and I'm not sure I'm here for it. I need all the characters to be happy, and Yuuji to remain the sunshine child he is. Anything else is unacceptable.

things to live for: (1) nobara & megumi pulling ultra-deduction to get yuuji a girlfriend, (2) second-year satosugu constantly on the move maligning people, (3) toji fushiguro losing bets, eating takeout, stabbing high schoolers, & not remembering his son’s name : )

This new arc is fascinating, seeing a second year Gojo is the best thing I would ever seen. He's just so cool and sexy. And seeing him working together with Geto is a concept I thought I've never going to see.

The introduction for Toji Fushiguro is also pretty interesting. I still don't see the appeal that people have for him, but well, it's still too early to say something.

AND, seeing a first year Nanami, is something I didn't expected!!

What the hell was that ending?! I'm concerned but also not. If you've read this you probably know what I mean..
Also I live for young Gojo and the flashbacks 🥺

We finally meet the elusive Fushiguro Toji. I knew he was a deadbeat, but dang, he exceeded my expectations. This was equal parts hilarious and action packed. It’s always nice to see Gojo, Geto, and Nanami as students.

Given how nonchalant teenage Gojo is about the plight of others, and how it is actually Geto who's a sensible foil in this duo, you'd assume it'd be Gojo who'd become a bad guy in the future. How the turntables.

Meeting Toji with extended flashbacks to Gojo and Geto’s past at jujutsu high? Obviously this was my favourite volume. (Plus, Itadori reuniting with the girl from his grade school was so cute!)
