Megumi himself admits in chapter 170 that he has trouble visualizing an artificial barrier around his domain, a problem he bypasses by simply filling an entire space with a predefined concrete boundary with his shadows, similar to Dagon’s Horizon of the Captivating Skandha.angel@s1ckth0THIS PANEL AAA #JujutsuKaisen #jjk #jjkmanga8:42 PM · Jan 3, 20222THIS PANEL AAA #JujutsuKaisen #jjk #jjkmanga https://t.co/RCXDpmccMpJujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 is pretty heavy on information, delving deep into the intricacies and categories of domain expansion.Reggie’s countermeasureWhile chapter 170 gave the impression that Megumi casting his domain was a move that spelled checkmate for his fight against Reggie, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 revealed the sorcerer to be equally ingenious, even when in a tight spot. Though startled by Megumi’s potential for a brief moment, Reggie immediately recovers, casting a simple domain called “Secret Technique: Hollow Wicker Basket” to counter Megumi’s Chimera Shadow Garden.FingersCrossed@FingersCro55edJujutsu Kaisen 171...This chapter also pretty much confirms that Reggie is a past sorcerer since he's using a prototype of Simple Domain#JujutsuKaisen #JJK3:52 PM · Jan 14, 2022472Jujutsu Kaisen 171...This chapter also pretty much confirms that Reggie is a past sorcerer since he's using a prototype of Simple Domain#JujutsuKaisen #JJK https://t.co/yVpPW0bxYbThe English scans for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 also enlighten international manga readers on how Reggie’s counter technique works, categorizing it as a prototype of the New Shadow Style: Simple Domain. The Hollow Wicker Basket is an anti-domain barrier technique, which nullifies the sure-hit aspect of domains. Reggie’s self-assured demeanor soon cracks through, when Megumi’s Toad Shikigami binds his feet, making him wonder how Megumi can attack him despite his anti-domain technique being active.FingersCrossed@FingersCro55edJujutsu Kaisen 171...I love how this whole fight shows how centralizing Domain Expansions seem to have been in the past and how this over-focus on countering the sure-hit effects have their downsides as well#JujutsuKaisen #JJK3:51 PM · Jan 14, 2022431Jujutsu Kaisen 171...I love how this whole fight shows how centralizing Domain Expansions seem to have been in the past and how this over-focus on countering the sure-hit effects have their downsides as well#JujutsuKaisen #JJK https://t.co/uMLmRa9EMoJujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 clarifies that simple domain and domain amplification techniques cannot directly counter a sorcerer’s domain, only affecting the barrier technique of the domain expansion itself. Thus, Megumi’s domain, which does not have a barrier at all, lacks a guaranteed hit, and remains unaffected by Reggie’s technique.FingersCrossed@FingersCro55edJujutsu Kaisen 171...A pure fighting chapter and I have so much to talk about gosh I love this series 🥰#JujutsuKaisen #JJK3:58 PM · Jan 14, 20221134Jujutsu Kaisen 171...A pure fighting chapter and I have so much to talk about gosh I love this series 🥰#JujutsuKaisen #JJK https://t.co/pS6lBrlLVmReggie, who has to constantly reinforce his feet with cursed energy to not sink into the shadows of Megumi’s domain, finds himself at a clear disadvantage as an all-out brawl between the two skilled combatants begins. Megumi uses clones of himself made out of his shadows, along with his Toad Shikigami to parry Reggie’s attacks while locked in close combat. Reggie uses his receipts to attack the Toad Shikigami with knives, attempting to escape, but is quickly intercepted by a clone while Megumi begins attacking with his cursed weapon.Megumi vs. Reggie fight comes to a stalemateThe fight seesaws onwards throughout Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 with both Culling Game players refusing to budge even an inch. Reggie realizes that he would soon be overwhelmed by Megumi if the fight continues to drag on. Realizing something crucial about Megumi’s shadows, Reggie uses it to his advantage, releasing one of his receipts.FingersCrossed@FingersCro55edJujutsu Kaisen 171...It's impressive how fast Reggie figured out the weakness of Megumi's Domain and how smart he acted on it.

Reggie exposes his intention to keep adding weight until Megumi collapses from the weight.the biggest simp@moretosimpthe battle of endurance is at its finest. cant ignore the megumi's smirk 🤩 #JJKspoilers #JJK1715:35 PM · Jan 14, 20224the battle of endurance is at its finest. cant ignore the megumi's smirk 🤩 #JJKspoilers #JJK171 https://t.co/iVba1Kk7XwBut Megumi smirks and says, “Even if it’s incomplete, a domain is a domain.” He then proceeds to point out that they are surrounded by shadows not only below, but also above. Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 then ends with Megumi dropping Max Elephant directly on top of Reggie, laughing and asking who will collapse first.SpeculationsJujutsu Kaisen chapter 171 shows the fight between Megumi and Reggie finally coming to a close. That is, unless Reggie manages to either escape or reveal another trick to support the weight of Max Elephant before the shikigami crushes him. In case Reggie is defeated, Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 172 will also reveal if Megumi will kill Reggie.shash@cactuzzshashthis direction for megumi’s character is so brilliant. everything is pointing to his worldview being shattered in the same way yuji’s was during shibuya. the ties to higuruma and the potential in their encounter has me very excited. love this #jjkmanga11:28 PM · Oct 3, 202136769this direction for megumi’s character is so brilliant. everything is pointing to his worldview being shattered in the same way yuji’s was during shibuya. the ties to higuruma and the potential in their encounter has me very excited. love this #jjkmanga https://t.co/cT7emBPaEnConsidering his current obsession with saving Tsumiki, Megumi will probably go to any lengths to score points and use the rule added by Higuruma to give points to his sister and keep her alive.FingersCrossed@FingersCro55edJujutsu Kaisen 171...Ugh there's just nothing better than Jujutsu Kaisen fights 🏽 Over and over again I get floored by how much thought Gege puts into his fight and how intricate the whole power system is.
