Yuji CANNOT damage souls

I AM SO TIRED OF THIS BEING THE COMMON BELIEF Okay so let's get started

Every time sukuka refers to his punches its never referred too as damage but Shaking or Capturing the soul He also says it's similar to how he was attacking Mahito

Yuji before the fight would punch and his punches would natural shake the soul of who ever he was punching

This doesn't affect regular people because it isn't damaging

We know he had no control over it cause it affected Mahito without yuji trying

So everyone he's fought would've been affected

Choso an incarnated sorcerer wasn't

Now after reading Yukis book it's clear he was ale to advance this ability to be able to actively target the barrier between souls which isn't damage

He's pulling sukunas soul and influence away from Megumi Not attacking sukunas soul directly

Sukuna can heal Soul damage via RCT It's explicitly stated that this is only because he shared a body with 2 souls exactly like yuji

So both can Affect the soul Heal their own soul

Yet we never see Sukuna attack souls Because he can't Neither can attack the soul

Mahito was stated to be a special case because his inate CT allowed him to shape and control his and others souls

SSK and Executioners blade are out right stated to be soul damage if Yuji DID do soul damage it would be outright stated

But gege goes out of his way to NEVER say that

When Yuji gains shrine and Sukuna mentions he's changes his CT to target selectively

Like in the image I shared from that post I saw

The interpretation is not soul damage Because as I have shown gege has gone OUT of his way to never refer to it like that

What Sukuna means is Yuji was ale to change his CT from targeting everything

To selectively only targeting the barrier between souls and nothing else

Which is comparable to Sukuna making his CT able to target only space VIA a binding vow

It's a high level binding vow and sukuna is shocked the person he hates was able to do it

Similar to hoe he was impressed with Yuta selectively only targeting Sukuna with his DE sure hit

Further more at the end of the manga Yuji is sent with angel Specifically because his ability to target the barrier between souls

If Yuji could target the soul He would've done it from the start

Maki was able to target only sukunas soul with SSK and avoid damage to megumi

Yuji would be able to do the same Sukuna went half thr fight healing the soul damage cause its WAY harder to heal that then to heal from any other attack

Attacking the barrier of the souls while lowering his output relied heavily on Megumi wanting to separate

Had megumi refused to fight back during Yujis domain They would've been dead no matter what because sukuna would've just rejoined with megumi this is why we see him trying to put megumi back under his control before his soul is launched out of his body

There was no definitive way to win via attacking the barrier

That's why the first 2 plans relied on attacking his soul directly

Mind you if Yuji could attack the soul directly He would've done it 1 or 2 times to force sukuna into a weaker spot

He cannot deal damage like SSK He cannot damage the soul His soul based attacks only work on mahito and incarnated sorcerers

Anyways I think everyone loses track of hoe the series ended

All the heavy hitters are on equal footing and all are equally strong The point of the ending is that no one is isolated at the top by power alone They are all equally powerful and specialist in their own ways of fighting

The curse of the strongest has been broken

The reason why the last chapter is them fighting some random dude is because it's a call back to hidden inventory to show that They are being young again They are having fun The curse has even broken!

Anyways please let's stop this Yuji soul damage narrative
