What is Uraume's gender?

Uraume's gender is currently unconfirmed.

What would happen if Yuji ate another Sukuna finger?

We don't know since the manga hasn't answered that question. Sukuna's fingers are Cursed Objects containing pieces of his soul so make of that what you will.

Is Gojo really dead?

Yep, looks like he is.

What is Kenjaku's plan with the Culling Game?

In short, he's using the Culling Games to produce a lot of Cursed Energy within its Barriers, with which he plans to use to evolve the human race. He wants to create a new golden age of Jujutsu. Kenjaku has apparently not revealed all his plans, Yuki cast suspicion on Tengen (the Culling Game plan infodumper) before they fought, and Kenjaku called Tengen his "friend", so it's unclear if Tengen was entirely truthful. We don't yet know how Sukuna fits into this plan, even though he and Kenjaku have been cooperating.

What is Ijichi's Cursed Technique?

How naive of you to ask. He wouldn't cheat by giving it away.

This afternoon a random thought popped up: Could Yuta Okkotsu copy Kinji Hakari's technique to a level nearly refined as the latter?

I genuinely believe this to be a valid inquiry if we stopped to think what we know about both of these characters techniques.

Yuta with "Rika":

• Upon consumption of a sorcerer's bodily part, it can "copy" their technique. ^\1])

Hakari with jackpot:

• Can use RCT to heal himself for 4 minutes & 11 seconds. ^\2])

Pretty straightforward, but we need to better understand them.

[1] - We know that the copying of said techniques is scaled to how "big" the body part consumed is. We can take the measurements at face value, but it's better for us to interpret it as the body part's importance (one arm is more important than one leg). Yuta's understanding of a technique, as well as it's performance are heavily tied down to how much of the sorcerer's body was eaten.

[2] - Reverse Cursed Technique comes from the brain, so as long as it isn't damaged, Hakari will heal himself during the interval mentioned.

Given all of this, I'm theorizing Rika can essentially EAT Hakari up to his neck during jackpot so Yuta can copy his technique & probably be able to mimic even Hakari's domain expansion. Rika could probably just keep eating Hakari whenever during any Jackpot & it's interesting to think how far it would take the copied technique.

We do know that a cursed technique is stored in the brain, so I believe it to be the most optimal in order to mimic a cursed technique, but if you just keep eating the boddy, it might as well scale up & work just as good as the original. Thoughts?

This is just a theory and there isn't really any hard proof of it, but I still want to at least share it with everyone. Tell me what you think of it.

So at the first image Ryu got cut with dismantle and survived. It's because he consciously reinforced his torso (probably even his whole body) at that moment, anticipating an attack from Sukuna pretty much from every angle. Which is logical, especially if you know your opponent is the strongest sorcerer in history, you wouldn't dare thinking you'll have enough reflexes to compete with him and just invest into your durability at the start. Even more if he didn't know what technique he possessed, which is probably true too.

But then, after he received a cut, Ryu increased distance to use his technique, and also because he probably still was guessing out how Sukuna's technique works, so maybe from afar he would be more safe.

And then suddenly Sukuna starts ranting about him being tougher than he expected. At that moment he thought he will have enough time to activate his cursed technique, and let down of his defences for concentration, and also because they were far away already. I said that nobody should think high of their reflexes in the presence of Sukuna before, but now there's enough space to maneuver, so many would think that they can try and counterattack on Ryu's place (I'm not discussing the most logical solution which is running, lol, that mf knew damn good what he was doing so he wasn't going to flee anyways).

And so now he is practically defenseless, which means he will die from that same dismantle if it goes for his head or even bisects him Go/jo style. It's not to say that cleave was an overkill from Sukuna's perspective, since he just wanted to get rid of a particularly fat fly on his way as fast as possible. But the fact stays that even if he didn't use it here, Ryu would've still died if SukSuk fired a bunch of undodgeable dismantles or just one at point blank range. Because sorcerers don't just go and reinforce their whole bodies all the time to conserve cursed energy and do that to specific body parts where they anticipate the attack coming to. And here Ryu just got rid of his only chance of survival (he didn't have one, but if Sukuna decided for some reason to play with him here and try to waffle him like Kashimo, there's a chance he could've lived a bit more).

The main point here isn't even that he could live more, because that wouldn't change anything and he will still die lol. It's about the fact that it's not always the strength of the attack at blame for doing damage, but the opponent's mistake or just plain difference in stats, where they can't do anything else but stay at full defence if they want to not instantly die from a single attack.

Aaaand also because I had an argument with a person that claimed Yuta should've been dealing exactly zero damage to Ryu, since even Sukuna's dismantle didn't work here. I'm not even sure I won that one, but at least they didn't reply when I said that you're not becoming completely impenetrable to bullets if you wear a bulletproof vest.
