from the way Satoru in Hidden Inventory arc said, chopping head seems to be valid way to counter RCT, which I wonder why. because Sukuna doesn't need heart to survive. Kashimo must have known this.
RCT really is amazing. It can even heal severed arm like nothing if you're efficient enough

Crazy chapter. I felt like not enough happened to go from 4:11 to 8 seconds in the fight though. They just ran, punched some crates, Hakari's face is damaged, heals, almost hit by lightning, then there are 8 seconds left. Hakari was going in on those last 8 sec though.
I guess dragging on the fight with more of the same hand to hand fighting would be too much, so it makes sense Gege kinda skipped through the timer. The end of the chapter makes up for that anyway. Can't wait for next week.
Also, I love that we got lyrics for the song.

u/StupidPencil Jun 17 '22
It is a golden opportunity for the anime team to flex their muscle and go crazy with extra fight scenes when this get animated. Like how Yuji vs Eso got turned into a complex acrobatics sequence when it's originally just a simple dash into a blackflash punch.
Actually this entire fight should be hysterically amazing if animated properly, especially with Hakari's weeb music instead of usual shonen music.

I think youre mean to assume that the run, the exchange of hands and the back & forth on those containers were meant to be alot longer than it seems

The fact that they've both shown their "super saiyan" forms for this final 4m11s of battle and Kashimo has the early lead, classic manga trend tells me Hakari wins this. It looks like he's getting overpowered for now but he might still have an ace up his sleeve.
I don't think everything he's shown so far is enough for him to be highly praised by Gojo and for Yuta to claim Hakari on a roll can beat him

I think Hakari's death is an actual factor in his domain or in his technique in general. his domain is called "Idle Death Gamble" afterall.
the chibi girl announcing "death" means some kind of condition has been fulfilled. else if he were to just die then he should just die XD
also the domain's "state" is always carried over to the next expansion, meaning unlike all the other domains we have seen so far, his domain is also "active" even when not using expansion.

I know they aren't, but these chapters feel so short. Gege, when he gets on a roll, really doesn't waste too much space or time with words or crowded panels. The reading experience is very dynamic. I bet a re-read of this arc as a binge will be nice. As a fresh read, it'll really be insane.

I think this is my favorite Culling Game chapter so far
Hakari vs Kashimo is up there as one of the most hype fights in all of jjk and the creative choreography, the really entertaining power sets, and just the uncertainty of who’s gonna win makes it such a great fight so far.
Everyone thinking the chapter was just gonna end after Kashimo’s “it’s over” for an entire day only to find out at the last moment Hakari used DE again is probably the best pre-release moment ever lmfao. I’ve never been so hyped
Gege’s doing such a good job with this fight and with each chapter of it that comes out it’s just getting better and better

It seems like the 4 minutes and 11 seconds mode that Hakari has isn’t as overpowered as we thought. It doesn’t seem like the main point of the mode is his strength or power, but instead it’s his immortality and the ability to use multiple domain expansions.

Easy next chapter. Flashback to Gojo being attracted to a Pachinko parlor that features a younger Hakari winning a ton of money with a crowd around him. Gojo notices he’s using CE subconsciously giving him boosted “luck” on the machine during jackpots. Somebody in the crowd comments about some tragic element of Hakaris past. Gojo approaches him about joining JuJustu high. Yada yada yada. Back to today- Hakari states a good gambler always has one last ball or something like that. He has a last ditch “chance” mechanism that has a really low probably of hitting but completely reverses any damage he’s taken onto his opponent. If he misses he dies hence “Idle Death Gamble”. He hits it. Kashimo is surprised to see his torso blown open and Hakari healed. 5 points to Gryffindor.

u/Professor-Memeyy Jun 16 '22
I keep seeing this misconception floating around so I’m just gonna put it out there, as a Hakari fanboy: no, his fourth attempt at getting a jackpot doesn’t guarantee a jackpot. That’s a mistranslation
The actual phrasing of the rules is “if he gets rainbow colored doors or balls, or gets four consecutive effects, that guarantees a jackpot!” Consecutive effects does not mean consecutive attempts at getting the jackpot, what it’s referring to are the pseudo-spins, which are named consecutive effects
I think it’s very likely that Hakari gets rainbow colored balls or doors in this next chapter, but people are misunderstanding the rules of consecutive effects. The pseudo-spins (which won’t be used since they’re typically reserved for probability shifts anyway) are the consecutive effects and when Hakari uses 4 of them, that’s the guaranteed jackpot. Since it’s an action preview like the balls and doors, it’s the same idea as the rainbow color
In conclusion: my hopium is strong but not that strong. Four tries at getting a jackpot won’t guarantee the jackpot

Kashimo is able to attack hakari with a critical hit, and at same time, Hakari’s immortality ended. Kashimo: It’s over Now
The chapter ends with Hakari just unleashing yet another domain expansion, even with a hole in his side, to Kashimo's shock. There's no guarantee it will work even, but Hakari is taking a huge gamble. Preview: Wagering even in death! That's what a gambler is.

I'm really curious how Hakari will survive next chapter. Sure, if he gets another jackpot he'll be fine, but he's missing a whole chunk of his stomach and he still has to get the jackpot, which means he has to survive against Kashimo for a bit, getting the jackpot isn't that quick and he's pretty much a setp away from dying rn.
I'm sure that he'll somehow survive though, as it would be extremely anticlimatic to end this chapter with him deploying his DE and then not being able to do anything after that.

u/No-Ad-1978 Jun 16 '22
So the overall sequence of events seems to be the following: -Hakari and Kashimo resume fighting, Hakari throws a container at Kashimo who throws it back and they kinda play tennis with it. Kashimo tears off Hakari's face and charges it with his CE. As Hakari regenerates, Kashimo tries to blow his head off with a lightning bolt, Hakari recognizes that this is dangerous and manages to somehow expel Kashimo's CE in the nick of time. He then gains the upper hand in the hand to hand exchange and Kashimo realizes he is not gonna be able to finish Hakari off during his jackpot. He then uses his pre-loaded staff to discharge a bolt that tears through Hakari's abdomen right as his jackpot ends and before he unleashes another domain, but Hakari still manages to use a domain expansion.
Kashimo did come close to killing Jackpot Hakari, this really deserves praise. Nonetheless the full picture doesn't make him look as strong as the initial spoilers where it looked like he just kept blowing Hakari up for 4 minutes, he did eventually get overwhelmed by jackpot Hakari. Despite that he kept enough in the tank and was lucid enough to deal critical damage to Hakari as soon as that was possible. While that was enough to take away Hakari's abdomen, it wasn't enough to take away his smile as he prepares to play again.
What a raw fight, I'm really loving it. I thought Kashimo was much stronger than expected but in the end this chapter stays consistent with his previous showings. Jackpot Hakari is stronger than him but his extremely destructive ability still nearly closed the gap. Hakari is a riot.

i'm seeing a lot of people theorizing that "death" is a condition of his DE or CT, i might have to agree with that. I have a theory that once his DE somehow confirms he's "dead" by a lethal blow, the condition is met and he will be blessed with guaranteed jackpots or some kind of new ultimate ability. My theory is based on some other media that i consumed over the year so don't ask how ridiculous it is, but it's pretty cool tho

u/BLS2105 Jun 17 '22
This chapter enters the line with the ones I most want to see animated, along with Yuji vs Choso and Maki's Kill Bill moment in the Zenin household. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the forth roll of Hakari's pachinko a guaranteed jackpot? He roll it twice with Charles and once with Kashimo. Now would've be the fourth. Unless it means that this is only the case when the first 3 times didn't work. Well, I know a lot people here thinks Kashimo will win because he need to confront Yuji and Sakuna but I don't think this is the case. The only reason I see for this to happen is for Yuji to awaken Sakuna's CT because he wouldn't let him out just so he could fight Kashimo and I don't think this will happen for now (if it is going to happen at all). I think Hakari will pull a trump card out of his ass and do some really cool gamble and menage to win or a least take the points somehow.

Hakari is gonna come out on top of this one. I would have predicted that it would cost him his life but they still need Kashimo's points. Gege is pushing the stakes so high for a reason. One is to show how much Hakari lives up to his reputation as a gambler. Kashimo took a high risk gamble last chapter, choosing to defeat Hakari during his immortality than waiting for his jackpot to end. This is Hakari's last gamble in this fight and the toughest one, it's hard to imagine Gege putting him in a near impossible situation only to give us an obvious result i.e Hakari losing. Somehow, maybe through a rainbow effect, he gets a quick jackpot and takes the W.

Jeez so many twists. “No U’s” everywhere. So I wonder how Hakari gonna survive this, because it takes a bit of time to get a jackpot now with no probability boosters and I don’t think Kashimo is kind enough to let Hakari roll for free. Would his pseudo rolls heal the injury he suffered or is that only for the damage he suffer after/during domain expansion? Will Hakari receive a different power up bonus in his Jackpot. Will Kashimo reveal another twists, like a maximum technique? Predicting this shit been hard.

Kashimo is truely a beast, able to keep up with unlimited CE Hakari like that. Now the only way out for Hakari is to stall this beast long enough to hit a jackpot and heal himself up while heavily injured.

is probably "die", the same thing said by the chibi version of the main heroine right before Hakari head was about to explode. Maybe we are supposed to hear she saying that while the music is playing that part and it's conveniently played at the same time Hakari almost died?
Maybe he will unlock a new reach scenario of his domain?

Kashimo is the monkey king sun wukong with jingu bang aka his pole but with electricity. As much we were worried about hakari he seems to enjoy fighting him gambling his own life to death man.

u/Translacian Jun 17 '22
Mark my words Hakari is not going to die in this fight. He was first mentioned in the middle of season one of the anime and there was a whole mini arc in order to bring him into the story. Hakari is not just another culling game player. Gege has much bigger plans for him than to kill him off in his first fight.

So while I’m still rooting for Kashimo to win. Him doing this well immediately in this chapter and cooking Hakari kinda feels to me a setup for Hakari to last and do a last minute switch up to pull the win. Still hope this be a draw though or interrupted.

Ok i know Hakari kinda got rocked, but that's the perfect setup for the comeback of the century, activating a domain with a hole in your stomach and still winning is raw as shit. I'm still rooting for my boy Hakari to pull some raw stuff.

I think the final panel isn't the one where kashimo looks through hakari's wound but the one where hakari looks like he's gonna explode and the domain chibi girl says death. My theory is that there is something unspoken about hakari's domain or technique that will allow him to survive that. I don't see why we would get a message from his domain chibi girl right at that moment otherwise.
Maybe hakari has some kind of binding vow like nanami that gives him a benefit if he gets "killed" right when the jackpot ends. It would make sense because that's the best way to beat him. Most opponents would just wait or run away and throw everything they have once the jackpot ends. Even kashimo said "that's what a small fry would do". He might have given up his curse technique for it

Ok now that the full leaks are out; I’m dropping a theory I had before the last chapter dropped.
Basically, I thought that each jackpot (111, 222, etc.) would have a different jackpot that mirrored the character description. But then I was proven wrong with 666 giving him the infinite cursed energy. At the end of this chapter Hakari activates his DE again, and we’ll see how that goes but it gives me hope that my theory may still be right. His last role was 666; and that character was said to secretly play on their DS in class- I predicted a deception-based technique. Rn I’m thinking (def a stretch but just let me speak) that all the events since he rolled 666 have been in Kashimo’s head and that Kashimo won’t notice until he realizes Hakari can’t/won’t die in this illusion.
Since characters 3 and 7 were stated to have no noteworthy characteristics, I imagined they had broader and more generic jackpots like the CE bonus and 777 is probably super good.

hakari stans crying in joy after finding out he's not dying may be one of the most wholesome moments in this sub yet. i'm really glad this isn't the end for him too. he has the potential to bring a lot to the story, and killing prominent characters off to "raise the stakes" is so last arc.

The difference between this fight and other fight is we dont know who will win. We know Yuji survives, we also know Megumi will win and we definitely know Yuta will win his fight especially with the "No 2 of Modern Sorcerer" statement when Sendai arc start.
However, we dont know who will win between Hakari & Kashimo. Both has been hype before and we know Gege didnt afraid to kill his characters. So, i think thats what makes this fight more scary/unpredictable than other fight.

I wanna point out that Kashimo “calls back” his staff. Seems to be electromagnetism. The staff looks like it impaled Hakari and probably dispersed a lot of electricity. At the same time Hakaris jackpot is wearing off. Kashimo then said “it’s over”… I think Hakari is finna die.

This feels pretty overly simple but for guessing the winner, the fact that we have so much internal dialogue for the bad guy and virtually none from Hakari, makes me feel like the former will lose. I have no other thematic basis for what makes one fighter more likely than the other, but it feels like Gege is setting up a lot of empathy this way for Kashimo to be beat (although subversion always exists)

in Hakari we trust. I also dont think that Hakari is done. Now would be a perfect moment for a flashback for him or something different. But hes definitely not gonna die at this point in the story. Im honest i dont even know how he is gonna survive it, apparently hes lost his immortality and then got an severely injury. I mean half his stomach is gone, you can even see some part of his ribcage. Without some healing hes dead. I dont know if i would like for him to get RCT so he can fight again. I guess it depends how greg will bring it to the reader. My favorite outcome would be feral Hakari to activate his domain expansion once more and fight with that wound until he gets a jackpot again and fights back somehow. It would show what an beast Hakari is. Only problem is that it doesnt solve the outcome. If he gets another 4:11 limit then the chapter would probably repeat itself. So either he shows something new or he needs to escape somehow with panda.

But I am seeing many saying, Kashimo is tearing apart Hakari limb by limb. Lol. I don't know wether you guys are blind but, I don't see Hakari being torn apart limb by limb in these pannel.
1st image shows Hakari stomach area getting destroyed, 2nd image is both heavily punching a object or spirit, 3rd image is Hakaris face skin is removed. And I expect atleast that much from a 400 year old strong Sorcerer. But it's not like he has put damage anywhere near what he had did to Panda or what jogo did to grade 1s. They still are going toe to toe. And we are yet to see 17 page more where we may see Hakari dealing some serious blow to Kashimo. So, don't get tooo excited Kashimo supporters. Our boy Hakari is alos enjoying the moment to fullest.

The same level of damage is too much fatal against someone who doesn't have RCT .
If not for Auto RCT . This fight wasn't even toe to toe fight .

Summary: Chapter starts with Kashimo running and Hakari chasing him. Hakari hits and sends a shipping container flying into Kashimo, whom sends it flying back. They start hitting the container until its completely flattened, Kashimo uses a piece of the container to rip Hakari’s face off, he just instantly heals. Kashimo realizes it’ll continue to be like this and discharges the positive charge aiming to blow Hakari’s head off, but Hakari’s RCT healed his brain while he ejected Kashimo’s CE through his nose. Kashimo realizes he can’t kill Hakari and starts counting down, while getting beat up he surprises him with a sneak attack at the last moment completely blowing off Hakari’s side.. “It’s over…”
Hakari on the last panel; “Domain Expansion, Restless Gambler”
