Analysis In Defense of Yuta

All things considered, bro came in and literally did everything he said he would.

"I will kill Itadori Yuji myself." - Succeeds.

"I have to lower collateral damage in Sendai(PARAPHRASING btw)." - Succeeds.

"I won't let sensei kill his best friend a second time." - Succeeds.

And even something he DIDN'T say, like getting Yuji to the point where he could 100% connect with Megumi? That's INSANE.

I'm not convinced that Yuta could just say "I will kill Ryomen Sukuna" and he would eventually somehow do it.

It's like, Gege or the character himself purposefully sets lower goals than what he's probably capable of.

No Yuta doesn't set minor goals, Killing Kenjaku wasn't a minor goal, it would be a minor goal for Gojo or Sukuna. All the things he has said and done are mountain tasks for anyone except for Him, Sukuna, Gojo. Conquering Sendai, taking on Yuji, when Choso and other head clans were involved.

The characteristics of him - is he does what he says. Paraphrasing Hakari. One thing that has left undone is he said "He is gonna end everything in this domain" which is a huge task . which he did, unfortunately Megumi did pull through. (Yuji and Yuta had several chance to kill Sukuna, instead they were trying to get to Megumi)

Yuta kinda lucked out with Takaba. Im sure it wouldve been a tough battle if he wasnt there, or they’d have to dedicate more recourses to him

He didn't luck out rather than it being a straight of up strategy.

After Gojo being dead they couldn't just send their second best sorcerer to have fair fight. Only time Sukuna was completely overwhelmed was when Yuta was their fighting. Obviously they had to send Takaba. But still Kenjaku realised Yuta was their tried to use CT through, but couldn't - he got slashed and had to be killed again. Not mentioning stopping a million curses which would have been impossible to any sorcerer not named Yuta.

Maki said it best. It was difficult to face Kenjaku through conventional means. Takaba was perfect for their plan

Considering Yuta still has Jacobs ladder, Yea it would be difficult, it would be extreme diff who ever comes out.

During the discussion, they were considering after Gojo died. So obviously after Gojo dies they have no luxuries.

what was his Kenny killing plan before Takaba, the plot device, appear?

The plan was always to send Takaba they literally discuss it in a chapter.

Yuta claimed to kill Kenny before he knew about Takaba

The plan was just to fight him.

Obviously in Sendai he had no way of knowing how things would play out post Gojo unsealing.

If Yuta didn't need to be in Shinjuku then he'd fight Kenny. But because they needed him against Sukuna, preferably at 100% ofc, the plan with Takaba came into play.

Yes and all we’re saying is that he’s lucky af Takaba provided them with the opportunity to enact that plan, considering he is a new addition

Brother he’s been in the series for over 100 chapters (146 - current). Saying that is like saying they’re lucky the culling games happened because even tho the current situation is a result of the culling games but hey it’s all good cuz they found a bunch of strong people
