BeatenNaoya ZeninJujutsu Kaisen · rank 24

Two inherited techniques, and the one with longer practice behind it wins. Naoya came in reading a speed passed down to him, and lost to a move nobody had shown him before, which is the risk of being the quicker party against the side that prepared longer. The ranking already has them this way round, a short way apart. What the record adds to Naoya's row is a pattern: the next time he is drawn fighting, it goes the same way.

What this does not settle

One fight in one work. It is the only result the record gives between these two, and it is evidence about that meeting and nothing wider — not a general matchup, not a rematch, and not a ranking of its own.

The ladder above it is argued from everything either of them has been shown doing; this page is argued from one citation.

Where the two disagree, the disagreement is the point, and it stays visible rather than being resolved by whichever of them happens to be on this page.
