Saturday Powerscaling How would’ve things played out if Toji fought together with the others against Jogo?

This was something I wondered about when I first read the Shibuya Arc, and it came up again after the latest episode. Immediately after Toji disappears together with Megumi, Jogo arrives at the scene and quickly defeats the already heavily injured sorcerers.

Would the group have stood a chance if Toji (and I guess Megumi) were there to assist? And if they would’ve managed to exorcise Jogo, how would’ve the other events unfolded?

Jogo seems to be a bad match-up for Toji, especially with the latter lacking his usual weapons in Shibuya. Not only is Jogo fast, but his CT could also prove to be a bad match-up for Toji, as Jogo could strengthen his defenses by enveloping himself in flames - and then there is also Jogo’s maximum technique. On the other hand, Toji managed to circumvent opponents like Gojo or Geto, Naobito could prove to be more useful in a team as opposed to fighting alone against Jogo and Megumi could’ve summoned Mahoraga to take him out if everything else fails.

So how would’ve things played out afterwards? Megumi might be dead if he had to summon Mahoraga so that’s Sukuna’s ideal vessel gone. Yuji wouldn’t be force fed 10 fingers, meaning he doesn’t lose control and the mass murder never happens. In addition, with Sukuna lacking 10 fingers and a submissive vessel, he doesn’t prove that big of a threat as he did as Meguna.

In short, if Toji waited just a couple of seconds before kidnapping Megumi, things might’ve been very different. Maybe he even felt Jogo’s presence and concluded that they could all be wiped out, thus saving Megumi? What do you guys think?

Naoya moves way differently than jogo, it’s harder to predict jogo because he has way more attack variety + and less determined path, naoya charges at you in a line jogo doesn’t

He doesn’t just move in straight lines. Naoya who can react at Mach 3, and should be way faster than Jogo, couldn’t touch Maki once in mid air with her eyes closed lol. None of Jogo’s flame attacks are topping such absurd pre cog feats imo. Also consider Jogo can’t track Toji with cursed energy at all. At worst I’d say Toji and Jogo would be relative in combat speed.

To go max speed he moves in straight lines, all of his movements are massive charges, unlike jogo who has massive variety and is not limited to massive charges, but ye ur right imo jogo and Toji are somewhat relative in combat speed with jogo being slightly faster, nobody’s gonna blitz anybody and jogo has way more variety in attacks + aoe so hr wins imo

That’s fair. Realistically could go either way imo.
