Can you do a break down of the meaning of Gojo's chants?

The left image is the chant for Red, while the right is for Blue/Azure.

位相 (isou) means "phase" just like in the official translation. This indicates the start of his chant, 'opening' certain technique.

波羅蜜 (haramitsu), meaning "paramita". From the Buddhist root, it refers to the culmination of certain virtues. It also refers to the practice of one bodhisattva to reach enlightenment.

光の柱 (hikari no hashira), "pillar of light". Probably refers to the sun pillar phenomenon, which appears because sunrays is reflected by miniscule ice crystal in the atmosphere. The light is reflected back to earth by the crystal, causing the phenomenon.

黄昏 (tasogare) means "dusk" or "twilight".

智慧の瞳 (chie no hitomi), "eyes of prajna". Prajna or wisdom in Buddhism is the ability to discern things and there are several types of it. There is also 智慧光 (chiekou), which is one of twelve lights of Amitabha Buddha that destroy the darkness of ignorance of living things. It is interesting to pair tasogare with chie no hitomi since the root for tasogare means a time when others can't discern the face of other people. So, from unclear to become clear.

I have done a breakdown for the chant of Purple/Murasaki, which you can read here

I'm hoping marriage isn't actually our idea of it. She seemed fine enough with Sukuna being a corpse. Hope it's something messed up like a fusion or ability swap/ combination. Think Uraume's bath not just being a bath. It's possible CTs can be constructed via mixing of bloodlines. Until Gege actually tells us how CTs form and why bloodlines are important we'll just have to keep on guessing.

JJK 218: I have mixed feelings

My impression from the last chapter stands: I like Yorozu a hell of a lot. She's strong and she's batshit crazy, and the backstory from this chapter establishes her as one of the strongest incarnated sorcerers. Among all the new characters introduced in the Culling Games, I'd say she and Higuruma are my favorites.

Plus, her technique, especially her armor, is pretty cool. The bug aspect is interesting, and the design of the armor is also damn nice. I like how bulky and sturdy it is, and seeing her physically throw Sukuna around was fucking amazing.

It's her, uh, motivation I have trouble getting into. On the one hand, her complete yandereness is fun. I know marriage became the focus later, but she started with the claim that she wanted to be the one to kill Sukuna and wanted him to be the one to kill her, and I like that sort of dynamic. And in this chapter as well, how much of her "love" is tied up in violence appeals to me.

B u t the target of said affection being Sukuna kind of ruins it. Not because I don't understand her rationale (I do appreciate that this chapter showed she fixated on him because they're both peerless in strength and she, at least, is lonely because of it) but because Sukuna doesn't really have the kind of reactions that make this one-sided attraction entertaining. Look at this:

I was cringing all through those last few panels. Just...no. Nope. No thank you.

It's similar to why Hana's thing for Megumi held no appeal for me, even if Gege did make a cursory attempt at showing it's a childhood fixation that escalated further. Women being this gone over men who don't give a fuck or are mocking them is a dynamic that actively puts me off. It wasn't fun when it was Sakura x Sasuke, and it ain't fun now.

Yorozu, seriously, you can do better.

he thinks he's gonna eat him

Very versatile word 👍
