First, what are Yuji's soul attacks?
Yuji's has the ability to recognise the soul, due to inhabiting the same body as Sukuna. This means he can knows the contour of his and others souls. This allows him to "attack" the opponents soul
HOWEVER, In JJK, the soul and the body are intertwined most of the time, so this isn't particularly relevant. However, it is relevant when there are techniques or abilities.
Against Mahito: Mahito's technique treats the soul as predating the body, so when Mahito changes his or other's souls, it changes the body. Yuji negates this by attacking the soul too, meaning Mahito can't avoid damage.
Against Sukuna: Sukuna is a reincarnated sorcerer. You need a form of IT to mix souls, meaning that without it there is always some sort of barrier between two souls. Yuji is able to target this barrier and separate the two souls. This barrier can't be healed because it's not an actual physical thing, it's just the "distance" between souls, hence why Sukuna can't heal Yuji's soul hax
WHAT YUJI'S HAX ISN'T:
Yuji cannot negate durability or change the shape of the soul.
The ability to negate durability comes treating the soul separately to the body, similar to how IT functions.
Yuji does not have this.
If Yuji could negate durability, he would do that. Literally just cut off all of Sukuna's limbs, then spam soul seizing punches until Megumi is free. There is no reason not to use durability negation other than the fact he doesn't have it
Does that clear everything up? Good
Now;
So, now for Yuji vs Denji, soul attacks are...
Straight up a non-factor.
TL;DR: It is irrelevant
Also, he specifically forced all the trans people into slavery too because he, and I'm shaking as I repeat this, he said he "doesn't respect their identities." Granted he did force the trans-men into slavery too, which is technically gender affirming, so I suppose we can give him points for that
BUT I'm pretty sure I saw him kick a dog too.
So yeah all around real horrible bigot that guy.
Also the whole "stopping a world ending catastrophe" thing.
What other similarities are there, and what ending do you think worked better?
I also wonder if FP's ending was also controversial on release.
Also, I should really buy all the Fire Punch volumes.
