Hahahaha I knew someone was going to comment this. I'm watching both the sub and the dub as I'm writing this fic, I think for this scene I just liked the sub version more. For Chazz, I liked the dub a lot more, so I based his lines and dialogue from his dub version
He won't stick with japanese folklore forever. I'm not sure about using references from other manga/anime, because it might break immersion a bit, but we'll have to see. Right now, I'm not saying no, but I'm not saying yes either.
Right now I'm focusing on folktales, I think it suits the Jujutsu Kaisen universe perfectly since the series actually has a few of them.
Nuribotoke, a yokai.
Dodomeki is also a yokai, a human woman who is cursed with having long arms covered with hundreds of bird eyes due to her habit of stealing money, or so the legend goes. Note that although I'll have their abilities will reference in some way their legends, I'll take some liberties, so for instance, I might (still haven't decided) use the concept of 'stealing' for her powers, and not necessarily stealing money.
Bakeneko. Note that this is just the specific version I chose to go with, there are many different interpretations of this particular yokai, but I just saw this picture and thought it was cute, so...
He's wearing his Saitama Urami East Junior middle school uniform, just in case. If someone isn't familiar with dates, Megumi begins his education in Jujutsu High in 2018, and we are in 2016 right now.
I still don't know much interest Kenjaku is going to have in him, he'll be interested, obviously, but I need to study him a little more as a character before I decide. Suguru on the other hand... Well, I have a lot of plans for him. I'm not even sure if he'll share the fate of his canon self.
Right now Jun won't be using a weapon, the one flaw of his current self is that he sucks at combat in close quarters and is heavily reliant on his cursed spirits. He can't fuse curses together, not right now at least, Jun's just learning after all, but in the far future he might be able to do something resembling a fusion.
If that wasn't the case, then it would straight up be a better version of Cursed Spirit Manipulation in every way, I don't want that. I want each of these two techniques to differentiate themselves from each other, so far I would differentiate them like this: Cursed Spirit Manipulation: Dependant on finding existing curses, requires subjugating them but guarantees control and lastly, the quality of the spirit's cursed technique ceases to grow after absorbing it. (As stated by Kenjaku before absorbing Mahito) Cursed Spirit Creation: Dependant on negative emotions to create curses, but there's no need to subjugate them, doesn't guarantee control, the quality of a spirit's cursed technique keeps evolving, allows some personalization of the cursed spirits.
His cursed spirits have free will, but as their creator, most cursed spirits tend to have a favorable opinion of him and a predisposition to listen to what he says. It is perfectly possible that at some point he'll create a cursed spirit that *won't* like him or won't feel like obeying him. It's not that uncommon, he has experienced this many times but he typically exorcises uncooperative curses, hence why the only cursed spirits around him all seem to like him, because he dealt with those that didn't. To sum it all up, as he says it himself this chapter, he doesn't really control them, all of them have their own free will.
