Black Rope is known to have appeared in the prequel film Jujutsu Kaisen and is mentioned again at the beginning of the opening of the Culling Game. This weapon is also known to have been Miguel’s mainstay card against Gojo.
What are some interesting facts about Black Rope? Here’s the explanation!
1. The only cursed weapon that is not from Japan
Various sourcesAs we know, most of the known cursed weapons such as the Split Soul Katana and the Inverted Spear of Heaven are modeled after weapons from Japan and produced domestically.
Well, a different case happened to Black Rope.
The Black Rope itself is known to have been produced by the clan to which Miguel comes from in Africa, making the rope the only weapon known not to have come from Japan.
2. Has the ability to disrupt the effects of enemy techniques
Miguel attacks Gojo with Black Rope (Doc. Mappa / Jujutsu Kaisen 0)Black Rope’s abilities are almost the same as Inverted Spear of Heaven.
It can be used to disrupt the effects of enemy curse techniques, including Gojo’s Limitless.
Because of this, Miguel managed to penetrate Gojo’s defense and succeeded in attacking him with physical attacks.
However, he was unlucky because the strongest wizard also turned out to be skilled in close combat.
3. Used by Miguel as an offensive weapon
Miguel with his Black Rope (Doc. Mappa / Jujutsu Kaisen 0)Because he knows that Gojo is famous for his Limitless defense, Miguel chooses Black Rope as his main card.
He can use the rope like a whip to attack, reach distant objects, and also use it to swing from one high place to another.
Thanks to that, Miguel managed to escape alive from Gojo after their fight ended hanging.
4. Will burn if used frequently
Black Rope burns (Doc. Mappa / Jujutsu Kaisen 0)Even though the effect is the same as Toji’s spear, this Black Rope has one drawback.
If used too long, the Black Rope will slowly burn until there is nothing left.
Because of this, Miguel set a time limit to hold Gojo while making a deal with Geto because he knew he would be done for as soon as the rope ran out.
The rope itself is also difficult to reproduce considering that Miguel once said it took a long time to make the item in his hometown.
5. Known to be able to damage Prison Realms
Kenjaku goes with Prison Realms (Doc. Mappa / Jujutsu Kaisen 2)Black Rope itself apparently has the potential to break the strongest seal in the world Jujutsu Kaisen, Prison Realms.
This was first revealed when Tengen revealed some important information about the method of freeing Gojo from his imprisonment.
However, the wizards failed to use it because both Black Rope and Inverted Spear of Heaven had disappeared somewhere.
In fact, according to Yuta, when he and Miguel visited the African wizard’s hometown, they found that the wizards there no longer produced Black Rope.
Those are interesting facts about Black Rope, Miguel’s mainstay weapon.
