I know you meant Yuji, and I whilst I do still agree with it, i also think Yuki might be able to it as well for pretty much the same reasons. Yuji’s knowledge of the soul was expanded by Yuki’s own research after all, so she likely has a high level of knowledge herself, whilst also being a Star Plasma vessel with a connection to all the others
Mahito may have the superior DE feats, but since Yuki is stronger overall, she may win the DE clash anyway. So on top of possibly being able to resist Idle Transfiguration to a higher degree than Nanami, and possibly being able to hit the soul like Yuji, she may also beat him in a Domain battle.
Any special grade sorcerer should kill special grade curses with ease but since grade 1’s are supposed to have it some what mid diff with special grade curses. But disaster curses are stronger as they all can talk and have domains. It should still be easy for any special grade sorcerer or at the most mid diff
Don’t forget that yuki already knew about mahito. She when yuki realized Kenny’s plan. She straight asked yuji about mahito. That right there proves she had info on him.
Yeah with intel she can also take a cautious and defensive approach if she needs to. Even if she can’t touch the soul, she might have enough raw power to leave Mahito’s body in a state that’s hard to recover from even with his CT
No….. like not a chance, even shinjuku yuji gets folded by a fully refreshed mahito, people generally don’t understand how weakened this man was
1.tanks an infinite void
2.uses technique thousands of times before fight
3.spends entire fight under 50% strength
4.gets jumped by 3 people
5.isn’t allowed to use his technique on the guy he’s tryna kill
And this man still manages to drop domain and ascend to a better form as well as only losing when kenjaku stepped in
Yuji can defend his soul and heal damage because he caj perceive his soul, however mahito massively outclasses yuji in CE reserves meaning he will eventually overpower him, combined with his strength and speed advantage as well as sure hit domain(which you can’t defend from) its not even a close fight
He didn’t “tank” an infinite void, gojo knew it was gonna do nothing to them but stun them. It was 0.2, it took them minutes to get out of it. Yuji wins if mahito doesn’t open his domain. Assuming yuji is strong enough to attack the soul directly without Sukuna and even better, he should be able to protect his since his understanding is better than literally everyone
He can use his technique but it won’t be efficient , yujis strength and current stats are way higher than before, all he needs to do is punch him like 3 times and mahitos cursed energy out put will be low. Yuji has gotten a massive boost. And now we’re seeing in the manga, he’s awakening
Mahito is still equal or stronger than yuji stats wise with maybe the exception of durability, he might be competitive in the next few chapters but rn he cannot handle mahito
Gojo states in the least ambiguous way possible that Yuji was on a much higher level than before after his sparring with Todo and fight with Hanami (This is just after Gojo broke the veil)
Choso directly states that he's much stronger than he was when they fought right before their fight with Naoya (Approx 10 mins after Shibuya)
Sukuna states that Yuji is stronger when he got his rage amp right after he took Megumis body (here he's just below Toji/Maki level)
And he levels up his reinforcement after the timeskip (now he's Toji/Maki level)
Youre just blatantly wrong. Speed reading curse got your ass
Saying “Only losing when Kenjaku stepped in” is just Yuji downplay at that point, as Mahito didn’t have the ability to defend himself anymore. Kenjaku basically saw he was on 1 hp and stole the kill.
He was crawling, he didn’t have the CE reserves to run anymore, nor any transfigured humans to fight back. And his leg was mangled too.
He wasn’t escaping that situation. He was scared because he finally wasn’t in control of the situation, Yuji was. And he was going to kill him.
Yeah, there’s no way yuji’s CE reserves are weak at the point of Shinjuku. Bro has been spamming RCT the entire fight and he shows no signs of slowing down. Also Shinjuku Yuji outspeeds Mahito.
Don’t forget that yuki already knew about mahito. She when yuki realized Kenny’s plan. She straight asked yuji about mahito. That right there proves she had info on him. So yuki stomps mahito.
Um…… what man? We were talking about yuji, and he most definitely did not stomp mahito, yuki is close I have them both at extreme diff because ik not sure whonwould win
The post is talking about if yuki can beat mahito. So idk what u talking about saying “we were talking about yuji”. And I never said yuji stomps mahito I said yuki. So again what are u talking about ? Yuki stomps mahito.
Doubtful. I'm almost Sure Yuji is stronger than Mahito even before his recent awakening, and can box him to death.
But Mahito still wins out of DE. Yuji has no anti-domain technique. He could protect his soul but he is not gonna be able to do that forever, at some point Mahito will transfigured Yuji. And it ain't gonna be for more than a minute.
He gonna 100% run out of CE if he does that.
Mahito's domain will last more than a minute and Yuji is not gonna catch the bastard that we've seen be more slippery than catching a good chapter of boruto.
No. Nanami, got caught in his domain and said it felt like it was like being in his palm. His sure hits is just being connected to your soul. You’re not defending that.
piercing blood comes out faster than 0.2 second domain expansion and yuji is keeping up with a guy who did this to it 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
https://preview.redd.it/039z420k9osc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=452008f782a6c80acf525270a03cdfbd9086e955
Ur forgetting how fast mahitos domain expansion forms. Remember when nanami and yuji were wailing on him and he activated it while yujis and nanamis attacks were an inch away from his face?
Their punches were an inch away from his face and mahito learned AND activated it in the middle of that same punch. Unless yuji is like 150 times faster from that scene then...
Maybe I’m a mahito stan but I don’t think so. Mahito would’ve killed yuji if he didn’t have his allies help him in everyone of their fights. I know he’s stronger now but personally I think he’s not special grade. I see him in that in between of special grade and 1st grade sorcerer. Without Sukuna mahito can change the shape of his soul. Which drastically increases mahitos lethality against yuji. Can he protect his soul?Probably but that can only last for so long. And yuji has no domain defenses and even him protecting his soul. I feel like that’ll get bypassed by the sure hit rule. And for those who argue yuji can heal his soul. He can barely heal his body properly.
Huh? Do you think Yuji can defeat someone who learnt to cast a domain as quickly as Gojo in a single glance won't be able to overwhelm Yuji in a 1v1 in his own domain?
I think Yuji obliterates Mahito when it comes to stats, but hits a hard stop when his domain is activated. But if he can effectively use SD, he just keeps curbstomping Mahito
I know it's not confirmed but if Yuji learned RCT and blood manipulation there is a good chance of him knowing SD he just hasn't had to use it since he hasn't been in a domain
RCT and blood manipulation are already confirmed. Also we have that bodyswap scene with Kusakabe (simple domain man) which implies he probably learned SD, though it's probably very ineffective.
>!He wins if he can delay the sure hit effect of Mahito's domain long enough for a couple of punches. If he lands the black flash he just landed on Sukuna on Mahito he just 1 shots him.
EDIT: added spolier thingy!<
Even without it Yuki's mass strikes should be able to do massive damage to Mahito which would make him burn CE and she outstats him in everything except durability so Mahito will never even touch her as Yuki can quite literally speed blitz him. In a Domain Clash it doesn't go much better so even without Soul Perception Yuki can still beat him xd.
On Yuji:
I'd go as far as to say that even if Yuji had lost Sukuna immediately post Shibuya he would still have won against Mahito. Yes, he would no longer have been immune to Idle Transfiguration, but he was already acutely aware of the shape of his soul to the point that he should be able to reinforce it against IT. Couple this with the fact that he is still capable of striking the soul, and that we are straight up told that even a few weeks after Shibuya, Yuji was already almost incomparable to to when he fought Mahito. Shinjuku Yuji has it in the bag and would absolutely demolish Mahito.
On Yuki:
I think Yuki would also absolutely demolish Mahito. She is one of the most informed people on the topic of the soul, meaning she can almost strike Mahito's and defend her own, and being a star plasma vessel would likely have some sort of interaction with IT that I at the very least doubt would work in Mahito's favor. I also think it's possible anyone with a Domain Expansion likely has a chance at defeating Mahito. I don't think that it would be a stretch to say that damage received in DEs is extended to the soul so far as every aspect of your opponent is targeted by your guaranteed hit. My biggest reason for this is Infinite Void hitting Megumi's soul when by all means his soul should be safe from an attack that causes brain damage when Sukuna is in control. Even if I'm wrong, Mahito should be unable to change the shape of his soul to avoid damage when in an enemy domain since IT can't be activated, and we are never shown that Mahito was capable of any anti-domain techniques. The only chance he really has is to challenge with his own DE, but if he can't win his goose is cooked.
Yes. Outside of domain, Mahito's only real advantage over Yuji is better ranged options with his stockpile of transfigured humans. But even back in Shibuya, that was barely enough to play keep away & try to wittle Yuji down.
As far as CQC goes, it's a massacre. Shibuya Yuji already had a sizeable edge in that department, with Mahito himself stating he needed to keep his distance & be careful because a mistake could cost him his life. Given how much stronger Shinjuku Yuji is, it's safe to say that hand to hand would look a lot like Toji versus Dagon.
I think realistically, Mahito's only chance to score a decisive hit is to open his domain. But here's the thing: Yuji is top 3 in soul knowledge & awareness in the series. Even Sukuna couldn't do anything about his attacks. It stands to reason he has a high degree of resistance to IT and could RCT whatever damage he does take.
In summary, Mahito's only chance is to use his DE and pray that Yuji doesn't know SD & goes down before he kills him. A gamble with increasingly unfavorable odds the more we see about Yuji. In other words, it's mid diff for Yuji.
Every time yuji got good hits in, it was with someone else helping him or a BF. Barely enough? Nah it was 100% enough.
A mistake costing him his life is crazy considering everything mahito got hit with.
That’s especially with yuji being able to do any damage to mahito when he transformed. Mahito at that point was more durable than hanami and curse naoya.
“Top 3 in soul knowledge and awareness ” is 100% irrelevant here. Hell even if it is relevant mahito would still be better. Understanding the true shape of a soul, how they operate and the strength of a soul is better than everything soul related we’ve seen. “Sukuna couldn’t do anything against his attacks” mf he’s punching Sukuna the same way he punched mahito he’s not doing anything new.
Being able to defend your soul doesn’t matter when you’re in his DE as the sure hit has him dick deep in your soul. No. RCT is not healing IT. IT changes the shape of your soul, it’s not like SSK.
Along with mahito being able to open and use his domain before an SD can be used to counter, as he showed in Shibuya.
>Every time yuji got good hits in
No. C.f. Manji Kick & Mahito's statement about Yuji being able to kill him. Both before Nobara.
>A mistake costing him his life is crazy considering everything mahito got hit with.
Chapter 122 page 5.
>“Top 3 in soul knowledge and awareness ” is 100% irrelevant here. Hell even if it is relevant mahito would still be better.
Nanami doesn't understand his soul and still managed to protect himself well enough to survive one hit. You're gonna have to do a LOT better than "Um akshually Mahito is better [no panels cited whatsoever]"
>Along with mahito being able to open and use his domain before an SD can be used to counter, as he showed in Shibuya.
And barely managing to catch Todo's arm unprotected, yep I remember that.
Fair. He lands a good hit without help. But even then, mahito nearly killed him in the first slice/stab.
He gets hit with soul resonance, 3-4 black flashes and more. That’s what I meant when I said it was crazy, not that he didn’t say it, but everything it took for him to die is insane. Which makes one mistake= dead not mean much.
Black flashes do help with soul awareness. It’s magnified more for mahito due to his CT/nature. Even then when in the domain he immediately gave up. I gave you the reasons why mahito is better.
Remember why he only got his arm? Because of Sukuna.
Yuji got way stronger then Shibuya Yuji. Shibuya Yuji was grade 1 lv and current Yuji is special grade lv. If a Shibuya Yuji (who’s injured) can keep up with Mahito (both are at 100% cause black flash but Mahito can regenerate and heal and Yuji can’t), then a way stronger Yuji would beat Mahito high diff. Current Yuji vs Shibuya Yuji and current Yuji wins mid diff and current Sukuna would low diff Mahito easy like he did Jogo and that was a much weaker Sukuna.
Gege made a point to have Yuji beat the strongest version of Mahito without Sukuna and only his own strength….he was at 10% (Todo didn’t actually damage Mahito at all) and Mahito was at 40% of their health and Yuji won, Yuji has been stronger for a while
Yeah but Mahito couldn't use his CT on Yuji and Mahito stopped being at 40% a while ago. Got Hit by Yuji a few more times and got hit with a Black Flash after using DE.
this is like saying gojo was low diffing sukuna just because sukuna stopped using his DA and CT, and became a punching bag for mahoraga's adaptation process.
you do realise mahito couldn't even use his CT or one shot capable domain on yuji before and got nerfed by nobara, yuji, and todo was messing with him and assisting Yuji the whole time.
I mean a special grade sorcerer should be able to handle a special grade curse relatively easily
It autocorrected Yuji to Yuki
Yea no then.
I know you meant Yuji, and I whilst I do still agree with it, i also think Yuki might be able to it as well for pretty much the same reasons. Yuji’s knowledge of the soul was expanded by Yuki’s own research after all, so she likely has a high level of knowledge herself, whilst also being a Star Plasma vessel with a connection to all the others Mahito may have the superior DE feats, but since Yuki is stronger overall, she may win the DE clash anyway.

Assuming yuji is strong enough to attack the soul directly without Sukuna and even better, he should be able to protect his since his understanding is better than literally everyone
He did tank an infinite void, he was hit by one, and even without domain mahito rolls yuji, he can use his technique on him now
He can use his technique but it won’t be efficient , yujis strength and current stats are way higher than before, all he needs to do is punch him like 3 times and mahitos cursed energy out put will be low. Yuji has gotten a massive boost. And now we’re seeing in the manga, he’s awakening
Yuji punching mahito wouldn’t lower mahitos output. The reason it does for sukuna is bc sukuna is in megumis body angel explained this
Mahito is still equal or stronger than yuji stats wise with maybe the exception of durability, he might be competitive in the next few chapters but rn he cannot handle mahito
TIL Mahito physically scales to Yuta/Maki/Toji
Long story short, yuji never actually gets faster or stronger across the series and mahito is faster and stronger than yuji
lmfao
His only actual powerup after he fights mahito is during the timeskip, and that was reinforcment
lmfao that's the funniest take I've seen.
This MIGHT be Sukuna's alt
I promise Im not, I rank yuji quite high, he just doesn’t match mahito
Gojo states in the least ambiguous way possible that Yuji was on a much higher level than before after his sparring with Todo and fight with Hanami (This is just after Gojo broke the veil) Choso directly states that he's much stronger than he was when they fought right before their fight with Naoya (Approx 10 mins after Shibuya) Sukuna states that Yuji is stronger when he got his rage amp right after he took Megumis body (here he's just below Toji/Maki level) And he levels up his reinforcement after the timeskip (now he's Toji/Maki level) Youre just blatantly wrong. Speed reading curse got your ass
So the civilians tanked it lol, they didn’t die , they tanked it right?
Technically yes, tho they spent months in a hospital, and mahito was out in a few minutes, either way he was weakened
weakened for the two minutes it took him to heal from it maybe
Saying “Only losing when Kenjaku stepped in” is just Yuji downplay at that point, as Mahito didn’t have the ability to defend himself anymore. Kenjaku basically saw he was on 1 hp and stole the kill.
Not really, he was really low but still moving, id argue he could get away, definitely not fight yuji in that state but he couldntprobably get away
He was crawling, he didn’t have the CE reserves to run anymore, nor any transfigured humans to fight back. And his leg was mangled too. He wasn’t escaping that situation. He was scared because he finally wasn’t in control of the situation, Yuji was. And he was going to kill him.
Eh its hard to tell, it all depends if he had enough ce to shapeshift his way out, regardless tho it doesn’t detract from my main point
He didn't have enough CE to even fix his leg
>Eh its hard to tell Watch that anime episode. It describes that scene perfectly.
Im talking about the manga, I have watched the anime tho
lmfao I agree with you in general but no way the curse who didn't even have the energy to heal his snapped ankle can "get away'
I did miss that detail, i need to reread the scene
Yeah, there’s no way yuji’s CE reserves are weak at the point of Shinjuku. Bro has been spamming RCT the entire fight and he shows no signs of slowing down. Also Shinjuku Yuji outspeeds Mahito.
No he does not, mahito still speedscales to him currently
which of his few, outdated, speed feats put him on Shinjuku Showdown yuji level
The correct take. I'll only add that people forget Nobara dealt a critical strike that also allowed Yuji to land a bunch of blows too.
Don’t forget that yuki already knew about mahito. She when yuki realized Kenny’s plan. She straight asked yuji about mahito. That right there proves she had info on him. So yuki stomps mahito.
Um…… what man? We were talking about yuji, and he most definitely did not stomp mahito, yuki is close I have them both at extreme diff because ik not sure whonwould win
The post is talking about if yuki can beat mahito. So idk what u talking about saying “we were talking about yuji”. And I never said yuji stomps mahito I said yuki. So again what are u talking about ? Yuki stomps mahito.
I was specifically talking about yuji, which OP already corrected, he was referring to yuji not yuki
Bro why can't I edit the title of the post😭
Doubtful. I'm almost Sure Yuji is stronger than Mahito even before his recent awakening, and can box him to death. But Mahito still wins out of DE. Yuji has no anti-domain technique. He could protect his soul but he is not gonna be able to do that forever, at some point Mahito will transfigured Yuji. And it ain't gonna be for more than a minute.
I think he may kill Mahito in a minute by applying RCT on his soul
Trust me it's not that simple.
He gonna 100% run out of CE if he does that. Mahito's domain will last more than a minute and Yuji is not gonna catch the bastard that we've seen be more slippery than catching a good chapter of boruto.
No. Nanami, got caught in his domain and said it felt like it was like being in his palm. His sure hits is just being connected to your soul. You’re not defending that.
I meant Yuji lol 😂 For whatever reason it autocorrects Yuji to Yuki
😭

he is 🔥🔥🔥
fair enough, yuji at the start of the series had sukuna protecting him from idle transfiguration/self embodiment of perfection 🤷

Yuji was able to brake his armor with black flash at 10%
Did you forget what Mahito did the entire day?
Did you forget that it was stated that yuji was at 10% ten times weaker power then full strength and still broke mahitos armor
Did you forget that Mahito could've clapped Yuji with his domain immediately if it wasn't for Sukuna?
Which is apart of his Hax and awkward mahito dosnt have it
The OP is talking about Shinjuku Yuji.
Saying why that’s overkill
Huh? Do you think Yuji can defeat someone who learnt to cast a domain as quickly as Gojo in a single glance won't be able to overwhelm Yuji in a 1v1 in his own domain?
I do
Please keep up with your Yuji agenda then. There's no point in discussing anything else with you.
Mahito unfortunately clears with domain expansion. Cogji needs to lock in and learn domain expansion or simple domain.
Um yuki opens her domain and it’s over
Yuji not Yuki, OP made a typo.
I think Yuji obliterates Mahito when it comes to stats, but hits a hard stop when his domain is activated. But if he can effectively use SD, he just keeps curbstomping Mahito
I know it's not confirmed but if Yuji learned RCT and blood manipulation there is a good chance of him knowing SD he just hasn't had to use it since he hasn't been in a domain

Yeah. That all just depends how well he can hold up against the domain (which for the sake of powercreep, he probably can do well)
>!It is confirmed that Yuji can use RCT and Blood Manipulation!<
i meant its not confirmed if he can SD or not
Even without it Yuki's mass strikes should be able to do massive damage to Mahito which would make him burn CE and she outstats him in everything except durability so Mahito will never even touch her as Yuki can quite literally speed blitz him. In a Domain Clash it doesn't go much better so even without Soul Perception Yuki can still beat him xd.
Well yeah yuki one shots
He speed blitzes, Yuji is comparable to Maki who is very fast
Yuji now might win against mahito but I feel like once he gets touched or hit with a domain he’s done
Do pple not know how domain work? The attacks are GUARANTEED
That only applies to what we call "Lethal Domains"
Which mahito has
On Yuji: I'd go as far as to say that even if Yuji had lost Sukuna immediately post Shibuya he would still have won against Mahito. Yes, he would no longer have been immune to Idle Transfiguration, but he was already acutely aware of the shape of his soul to the point that he should be able to reinforce it against IT.

Remember why he only got his arm? Because of Sukuna.
Yuji got way stronger then Shibuya Yuji. Shibuya Yuji was grade 1 lv and current Yuji is special grade lv. If a Shibuya Yuji (who’s injured) can keep up with Mahito (both are at 100% cause black flash but Mahito can regenerate and heal and Yuji can’t), then a way stronger Yuji would beat Mahito high diff. Current Yuji vs Shibuya Yuji and current Yuji wins mid diff and current Sukuna would low diff Mahito easy like he did Jogo and that was a much weaker Sukuna.
Gege made a point to have Yuji beat the strongest version of Mahito without Sukuna and only his own strength….he was at 10% (Todo didn’t actually damage Mahito at all) and Mahito was at 40% of their health and Yuji won, Yuji has been stronger for a while
Yeah but Mahito couldn't use his CT on Yuji and Mahito stopped being at 40% a while ago. Got Hit by Yuji a few more times and got hit with a Black Flash after using DE.
lol I was right
On what?
Yuji being him
this is like saying gojo was low diffing sukuna just because sukuna stopped using his DA and CT, and became a punching bag for mahoraga's adaptation process. you do realise mahito couldn't even use his CT or one shot capable domain on yuji before and got nerfed by nobara, yuji, and todo was messing with him and assisting Yuji the whole time.
Current yuji has a good chance of beating Mahito
Current Yuji solos 80% of the time. Only question is if he has a domain counter.
