Jujutsu Kaisen, Vol. 19: Tokyo No.1 Colony: Angry Man

呪術廻戦 [Jujutsu Kaisen] #19

by Gege Akutami

In a world where cursed spirits feed on unsuspecting humans, fragments of the legendary and feared demon Ryomen Sukuna have been lost and scattered about. Should any demon consume Sukuna’s body parts, the power they gain could destroy the world as we know it. Fortunately, there exists a mysterious school of jujutsu sorcerers who exist to protect the precarious existence of the living from the supernatural!

In order to add a rule that will serve as a loophole in the Culling Game, Itadori and Fushiguro set their sights on a player named Hiromi Higuruma, who has 100 points. But when they enter Tokyo Colony No. 1, the two get separated. They both find others willing to help them, however…

me 🤝 akutami

not actually understanding how any cursed techniques work

[zaynah ☾]

megumi fushiguro you will always be famous

[Khadija]

Am I confused? Yes.

[Lauren Lanz]

Higuruma’s domain expansion is so cool! I never imagined that an ex criminal defense lawyer would become one of my favourite jjk characters. 😭
I was dying to meet the pathetic man with the droopy sunflower on this cover.... of course he turns out to be awesome (in a lowkey lame way. Did I mention I loveeeeee him).

In terms of the actual storyline, I'm thoroughly enjoying this little bit of peace (nothing is peaceful) before Sukuna and kenjaku decide to interfere in the culling game and ruin things even more!!

[gabriella s]

megumi is so cool and epic and i wish he was a chicken tender so i could consume him whole

[angela]

Higuruma is giving Nanami 2.0 and I love it

[voresta]

(side note: haven’t been as active on here recently so i’m very sorry about that!! 💕)

Megumi, you are unreal. a divine being in human form, crafted with such perfection that even the gods must look upon you with envy. every inch of you is a masterpiece, every detail sculpted with an artistry so flawless it’s almost unbearable. you don’t just walk—you glide, moving with a grace so effortless it leaves the world holding its breath. every glance you cast, every word you speak, every movement you make is sheer poetry in motion.
your existence alone rewrites the very concept of beauty. your eyes—endless, captivating, holding galaxies within them—pull me in like gravity itself. your voice is a lullaby, a melody that lingers in my mind long after the sound fades, like an echo of something too perfect to be real. and that smile—that smile—is enough to send the world into chaos, a force so powerful it could end wars or start them. you don’t just shine; you eclipse everything around you, making even the brightest stars seem dull in comparison.
It’s unfair how effortlessly mesmerizing you are. just the thought of you is enough to leave me breathless, my heart racing like it’s trying to keep up with the sheer magnificence that is you. how is it possible that someone like you exists? how is it possible that I am lucky enough to stand in your orbit, to witness your radiance up close?
you are a gift. a miracle. a celestial event that the universe was kind enough to bless this world with. and I? I am but a fool, hopelessly and irrevocably enchanted by the very essence of you. thank you for existing, for being you—for being the most breathtaking, awe-inspiring presence this world has ever known.
with all the love in my soul,
your utterly devoted wife

It's always the overworked ones, innit? Higuruma is Nanami 2.0... I swear, at this point, Higuruma, Choso and Yuta are the only ones keeping me sane while reading this.

[Sima Khairullah]

things got intense by the ending!!!

[myo ⋆｡˚ ❀ *]

megumi is my son now, watch out toji

[Rylan]

the series kinda peaked after the maki stuff i’m waiting for it to pick back up again

[Afifa Afreen]

Volume not only unlocked my favourite character, but also unlocked my fear of Megumi. Dude is becoming ferocious and scary and I'm loving it.

CULLING GAME IS SO FREAKING LIT AF AUGH AND TO HELL WITH YOU GUYS I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT HIGURUMA

[lou]

if megumi dies i'll stop reading forever, I'm tired of the characters I love either dying or getting sealed or just stop existing

[Alexandra Elend Wolf]

“If everyone told the truth, we wouldn’t need trials.”

This was such a fun volume!

We get a lot of fighting had between Itadori and Megumi but there are also some very interesting moral dilemmas that enriched the whole plot.

There's no doubt in my mind that this whole arc is gonna involve a lot of action and fights, however. It was nice to see how cool both boys have become and how they are that much more capable and ready to do some serious damage.

Higuruma, one of the new characters, was frankly fascinating and I want to have a lot more of him going forward. We don't have a shortage of characters that lean more to the gray areas of morality but having such a rigid morally gray character is quite different. Overall, I just think there is a lot more to explore about him and that makes him a lot of fun.

He was one of the highlights of this volume for me.

“All people! Are flawed and hideous!! No matter how noble a soul you wish to have!! You won’t find anything more than that! The darkness lying before your eyes is nothing more than darkness!! Even if you ignite a light!! A brilliant void will once again be sprawled out ahead of you!!”

Someone seriously needs to hug Itadori, however, because that look in his eyes is just terrifying.

Now that the rules are set we're getting to understand better what this whole thing is about and though it seemed really daunting at first, it's shaping to be nothing but deathly and intriguing with tons of new faces and stories to explore and much more soul searching to do.

“If you don’t fight with intent to kill, you’ll regret it once you’re dead.”

[Ricarda]

Megumi turned out to be the star of this volume, but I also loved Higuruma! I really hope there will be more of him in the future.

[library ghost (farheen)]

[Yeferzon Zapata]

- El chico que conoce a Itadori es de la misma ciudad que él, se llama Amai. Aunque Itadori no lo conoce, si reconoció el apodo con el que lo llamaban en dicha ciudad "El tigre de Sugisawa"

- Itadori encuentra a el abogado Higuruma para pedirle que le de los 100 puntos que posee para añadir una regla al viaje de la extinción y acabar con ese juego, pero Higuruma se niega, ya que ve potencial en ello para que las reglas se cumplan.
Utilizando su expansión territorial llamada Judgeman, juzga a Itadori como si fuera un juzgado en la vida real, bastante curioso.

- Después de ser juzgado por entrar al casino de Kenji, Itadori es juzgado por las muertes de Shibuya, mientras era controlado por Sakuna, por esa razón es declarado inocente y entabla una conversación con Higuruma donde le concede a Itadori los 100 puntos que tenía y añade una nueva regla, que cualquier jugador puede transferir puntos a otro sin importar la cantidad.

- Remi conduce a una trampa a Megumi, que se encuentra con un tipo llamado Regee, donde le dice que el Kenjaku va a matar a todos los fuertes al final del viaje de la extinción, y quiere que Megumi sea su compañero, pero Megumi quiere sus puntos, por lo cual no será algo amigable este encuentro.

- Durante la pelea Regee y su compañero atacaban a Megumi, pero aparece un hechicero desconocido llamado Takaba, que dice ser un artista y ayuda a Megumi.

- Megumi conduce a Regee a un gimnasio donde utiliza su expansión territorial y el tomo termina en suspenso, ya que no se sabe si el elefante de Megumi aplastará primero a Regee o a él mismo.

[Kayle MacDowell]

At this point I’m not even sure who is dead and who’s alive

[jay]

[bea ♡]

[Arturia Pendragon📚]

Pobre Fushiguro!!. Siempre que le toca agarrarse a golpes con alguien, lo dejan como Santo Cristo 😅😅

[MajesticalLion]

Fushiguro popped off in this volume. Very little else to say. The story's taking it's sweet time. 🤷😂

[Jenny]

Glad to see that Megumi woke up and chose absolute violence. Go offfffff king, like father like son. Am I right or am I right?

[Lucy (the invisible life of a reader)]
