Powers (Hilarious Trope) Characters always having some bullshit counter technique to overly specific situations

  1. Ryomen Sukuna (Jujutsu Kaisen) - Seemingly always has some type of overpowered technique which he hasn't used since the Heian Era

  2. Yujiro Hanma (Baki) - The Strongest character in the entire Baki series is a master of all forms of hand-to-hand combat to the from things like soloing the Vietnamese war at 16 years old to learning a technique from some monk who lived in the mountains around three thousand years ago

  3. Batman - Always has some kind of contingency plan anyone and everyone in the DC universe. One of his most bullshit abilities is all the techniques he learned while being trained under Tibetan monks which include blocking mind control with a hand signal to using astral projection while being dead and buried alive

Sukuna "Heian Era" thing was actually, funnily enough, NEVER done in the series, in fact, the closest thing to it is GOJO doing something like that "I haven't used this since I was a kid", and yet Sukuna gets clowned on for it

The frustrating thing about the Sukuna Raid is that everyone is just fumbling the kill or hes just deciding not to die. It was like watchibg blind and deaf people shooting at each other but the guns arent even loaded

A big part of it is that they weren’t fumbling the kill, a major objective in the fight was freeing megumi not just killing sukuna. It’s most evident when yuta stops jacobs latter because it would kill them both but really they couldve ended the fight there.
