Megumi is regarded as the potential man by the jjk fandom bcuz of how almost everyone in the series including gojo, sukuna, the zenin clan regards him as a sorcerer with the potential of rivaling satoru gojo and the fandom like to slander megumi as the potential man. Plus the word potential gets brought out everytime megumi is on screen too

Don’t worry I’ll help explain the info dumps 😅 So Reggie used an old technique called Hollow Wicker Basket. It’s the precursor to Simple Domain. It’s designed to block the sure-hit, sure-kill of a Domain Expansion. However, it targets the barrier to neutralize the sure-hit. Megumi’s domain is incomplete, so he doesn’t have a sure-hit. He can’t figure out how to lay pseudo-space over real space, meaning he has no barrier. No barrier means no sure-hit. This means Hollow Wicker Basket is ineffective against Megumi’s attacks because HWB doesn’t affect the cursed technique itself. Unlike Domain Amplification that Jogo and Hanami used against Gojo, HWB and Simple Domain only affect the barrier. Domain Amplification essentially coats oneself in their domain but leaves out their technique. This allows the user to slip their opponent’s technique into the space of the barrier, neutralizing the technique. This is how Jogo and Hanami were able to shut off Gojo’s Limitless. Now there is another anti-domain technique called Falling Blossom Emotion. This is what Naobito (Naoya’s father) used against Dagon to counter Dagon’s domain. FBE erects an aura of cursed energy that blocks against cursed techniques by countering with equal force. However, it doesn’t defend against physical attacks. Simple Domains are known as “domains for the weak.” It creates a simple domain (hence the name) that provides protection against a domain’s sure-hit. However, it’s much weaker than Domain Expansion, so you’ll only have a few moments before your SD breaks. You can also use FBE and SD for offensive measures, but I don’t want to complicate the explanation even further 😅 All you need to know is that HWB, SD, and FBE are anti-domain techniques to give people a fighting chance against Domain Expansions. Of course the best way to defend against a DE is to erect your own domain, and win the Domain Clash if your domain is more refined than your opponent’s. This is what Gojo does to Jogo back in the beginning of the series. Not able to finish the reaction at the moment, so don’t know if you all figure this out. I’ll leave it up anyway just as a future reference if seeing it written out helps.

Hey guys, u did an awesome job with this one lol. Remember, for people who understand Japanese it really isn't all that difficult to follow both the fight and info dump, that is to say, the limitation here is more on the medium than the way JJK is doing things. I do think u guys can just pay attention to the fights when it gets hectic like that and then go back to it at the end, so u are at least enjoying the animation! Don't get too hung up on understanding things first watch cuz the truth is, most people don't lmao.

I know the info dumps could be a lot to deal with, but I really appreciated the long-term planning in the fight. Megumi and Reggie were both trying to set up their trump cards. Watching that back and forth was very exciting on a tactical level. Especially since Megumi won all the way back at the beginning of the fight by misdirecting with Divine Dog. Like Reggie said, sorcerers deal in lies and deception. Megumi perfectly setup his sucker punch way back when to the point where Reggie firmly believed Divine Dog was useless. Fun fight. Reggie ultimately lost because he forgot that there was something he needed to address: the elephant in the room 😏 Can’t wait for Yuta next week. Introducing a deadlock between four extremely powerful combatants and having Yuta immediately cut Dhruv down to size is such an effective way of selling his threat level. It properly sets up in your mind that Yuta is second only to Satoru Gojo. Also Takaba is a cartoon. He’s like the anime version of The Mask or Freakazoid 😂

Yeah, the "revealing your hand" thing would be interesting in regard to Takaba's curse technique. I think it's a perfect handicap for him to not know how his ability works or else he would be too broken if he revealed his hand.

It is truly hilarious agenda

Megumi is somehow avoiding the Fraud Allegations, but how long will it last XD

I like JJK, but it is unique in making me pause to read shit because I also want to see the animation. The narrator is saying important shit, and it's hard to see both at once. It's an issue they created. I think season 2 is one of the best seasons in anime, up there with Mob Psycho season 2 for me, but this season definitely has highs and lows.

Meh

The significance of the Fujiwara clan is not soley in JJK lore, but in Japanese history. I don't know specific details but they were a major political power through a long period of time in the Sengoku era. Often in anime a character named Fujiwara tends to be someone extremely rich or well connected. On another note while I wouldn't actually know, during the fight my mind was screaming "HOW TF DOES HE HAVE A RECIEPT FOR A WHOLE ASS HOUSE" XD. At least I've never met anyone who ever mentioned keeping a reciept for when they bought their home. Maybe Japan does.

Ren Davis

In real life Japanese history, as far as I know, the Fujiwara dominated the Heian period. Obviously, Heian is a big point of reference in JJK. It is when Sukuna lived and was seen as the golden era of jujutsu.

With Takaba not understanding his own ability I always imagined it to be like one day he realised he had super powers and never stopped to think how he got these powers or how they worked. The exact opposite of Higoruma who got his ability and and started working backwards to figure everything out about his power.

I'm so glad y'all stopped and ran that back like 20 times bc I definitely got folded right along with y'all by that explanation 😂 thank you

Many filmmaking choices of this season have been fantastic. But I think this show really lacks in the teaching, “show, don’t tell.” It works in manga to re-read a complex power system. When adapted for TV, this season has felt difficult to follow because of information dumps and dozens of characters. Even with an English dub, having a narrator explain details constantly is not the best tactic. Imagine your favorite action movie with a dense narrative over every cool moment. This isn’t a diss to JJK or its creator. As an anime, I just haven’t found this season very enjoyable at times. Higuruma’s story and Maki’s fight were the high points for me.
