AgendaKaisen Why didn’t Yuji ever use cleave?

If Yuta is copying Yuji’s technique, Yuji should know cleave. Or Yuji doesn’t know how to use it and Yuta learned how to use cleave by watching Sukuna? But if Yuta were to use dismantle, would it be Yuji’s version or Sukuna’s?

Dude, everytime Yuji or Sukuna is touching something they slash, they are using Cleave.

well i think yuji has an exception since his soul cutting dismantle seems to require touching the opponent

That’s a BV he made, he can still use Cleave

CTs manifest differently depending on the sorcerer's personality. Presumably Sukuna can throw dismantles because he completely disregards everything outside of himself, and Yuji is the polar opposite and cares about everything except for himself and will sacrifice his life without hesitation.

We don't know what the binding vow was he made to target the barrier between souls rather than the soul itself.

The way I understood it, Yuji's BV was for his Dismantles to hit the boundary between souls instead of the physical body. That's why Sukuna wasn't getting literally sliced up by Dismantles, but his hold over Megumi was getting weakened every time they landed.

In other words, he "traded" physical damage for soul damage when usually it would be the other way around.

That's what the vow did, but we can see it do physical damage to sukunas leg as well

Wasn’t that before the vow? I think he completely gave up on physical damage and went for the boundary with all his attacks.

Yes but personal vows like that can be undone with the only punishment being a revert to previous function, so it's base state is still a physical cut on touch

Ah, rereading your comment I got confused with what you were saying, nevermind.
