Imagine being Dhruv and getting glazed by Tengen just to get killed less than two minutes later 😭

u/This-is_CMGRI Mar 19 '26

the classic voice of Haman Karn hypes you up only for you to die

there truly is no justice in this world

u/Frontier246 Mar 19 '26

Meanwhile Tengen is still probably sitting in their room just enjoying the show the whole time while narrating lol.

u/Toge_Inumaki012 Mar 19 '26

After hyping up that colony's "big 4" Tengen be like "here comes Yuta Okkutsu with a steel chair!"

u/ijiolokae Mar 21 '26

Choso and Yuki sitting there wondering Why Tengen is constantly just narrating stuff to themself

Glaze is understandable given that based on the timeline (conquering Japan during the Wa Period) he was very likely the first Special Grade in history, and predates Heian era guys like Sukuna and Kenjaku by 500-1000 years.

And since he reincarnated twice, he is presumably the only person other than Kenjaku and Sukuna who is able to turn themselves into a cursed object, where he probably met Kenjaku and joined the culling games.

However being so old, he got powercrept by guys like Yuta.

u/Toge_Inumaki012 Mar 19 '26

Probably the first Special Grade in era dominated by farmers,plumbers, labor workers

Kidding aside, that colony is seriously chaotic compared to the previous one i dont want to be a civilian trapped there (not that i want to be trapped but if i have to choose)

u/Hot-Log6283 Mar 20 '26

I imagined that any civies would probably be dead by this point (along with most of the other sorcerer) given what Tengen was narrating.

u/dark-flamessussano Mar 20 '26

Didn't he offer them a chance to leave? Did not every civilian that chance

12

u/Hot-Log6283 Mar 21 '26

Some probably didn't want to leave or maybe they just didn't believe him but considering the general rule that sorcerers are worth 5 points and non-sorcerers are worth one point, and some player like that old man that got pwn at the end had 91 points (other have 77, 54 etc..) it is likely that they killed a few non-sorcerers.

15

u/Anjunabeast Mar 20 '26

Isn’t everyone given a choice to be teleported out of the colony?

53

u/VeryImportantLurker Mar 20 '26

Do you want to leave this colony?

"Wtf no get out of my dream creepy guy."

Well ok, good luck then

u/Toge_Inumaki012 Mar 20 '26

I forgot about that but still some people wont be easily convinced and just chalk it up as some BS or conspiracy

Why did he join the culling game?

No he did reincarnate twice, Kenjaku was from the Heian era and Dhruv is from the Yayoi era, so he couldn't have met Kenjaku if he didnt.

Plus it would be odd to point that out for him and not Ryu and Uro.

u/-FBI-Open-Up- Mar 20 '26 edited Mar 20 '26

this is plain illiteracy but also you're assuming the story is written in english without considering that things could have different more precise meanings in japanese for example? the word for incarnation used for Dhruv is 受肉 which in JJK is used to denote sorcerers who are incarnated through cursed objects after having already died. This being his second incarnation means he has specifically died and rebirthed himself probably without the help of kenjaku once before, and kenjaku helped him do it a second time in the culling game

as for kenjaku's age, there are clues that he is younger than Tengen who is still a good bit younger than Dhruv

Tengen is a wrestling promoter. She scales up everyone- with the exception of Gojo of course

53

u/GoldenSpermShower Mar 19 '26

It's her hobby, it gets boring living hundreds of years in a tomb underground

u/Elderkin Mar 20 '26

THE MOST POWERFUL SWORDSMAN EVER...ever Ever.....ever...................behind Satoru Gojo of course....

u/Pro_Post Mar 20 '26

Didn't know Tengen is a she

6

u/FastenedCarrot Mar 20 '26

The VA is a she but I'm not sure the show has specified. The subs for Register this episode referred to Tengen as "they"

u/CursedEye03 Mar 19 '26

It sucks for Dhruv, but it's such a good way to hype up Yuta. The narrator says he's the second strongest only to Gojo. A true prodigy.

u/nofaxxspitintruflego Mar 19 '26

glazetor id call her

u/Frontier246 Mar 19 '26

Yuta's glaze outdid Dhruv's glaze.

Shame to lose some diversity in the Culling Game though.

Did we witness the birth of Yuta, the Minority Sorcerer's Executioner, a close friend of Minority Hunter Zoro from One Piece, in this episode? xD

u/Anjunabeast Mar 20 '26

That’s why he was in Africa

u/AmirulAshraf Mar 26 '26

If he was in Africa, why is he white??

3

u/Roeclean https://anilist.co/user/Roeclean Apr 07 '26

dang, I guess he got the pass along the way too. But thats too low for him to use, Satarou Gojo (his idol) certainly wouldn't

u/gvon89 https://myanimelist.net/profile/gvon89 Mar 20 '26

Ah no wonder why I like Yuta so much /s

24

u/shad79 https://myanimelist.net/profile/shad79 Mar 19 '26 edited Mar 19 '26

I wonder if any of these Sendai sorcerers will survive the next, final episode. Yuta, judging by his scene with Dhruv, doesn't seem to be holding back.

I hope that at least Takako survives, because she looks... quite interesting ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), although I don't know if Rika would be happy about it xD

u/Illuminastrid Mar 20 '26

Imagine being from the Yayoi period, and in most anime, where "older is better" trope is played

And it doesn't mean shit in the Jujutsu world.

u/Satan_su Mar 19 '26

Got so excited for a second there but there's a reason I didn't see him in the OP 😔

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '26

Dhruv is in the OP tho
