A single touch settles it, and the two are far enough apart that the result needs no defence. What makes the record worth keeping is what she had managed first: hurting him through a piece he had separated from himself. The order holds because hers needs a nail, a doll and a fragment, and his needs only contact. A narrow condition honestly kept, beaten by a broad one.

Took Junpei Yoshino apart in front of Yuji and left him in a shape nobody undid. Killed Nanami Kento in a corridor of Shibuya Station with Yuji a few metres away and nothing left to do about it. Ten chapters on he put the domain up around Yuji and Aoi Todo — not the first time he had opened it — and the technique took hold of Todo without a hand ever landing on him.

Nobara Kugisaki on the Jujutsu Kaisen ladder

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.
