The latest Jujutsu Shenanigans update dropped unexpectedly, and it brings some long-awaited features and reworks for fan-favorite characters. From Gojo’s devastating 0.2 Second Domain Expansion, to Yuki’s complete kit shake-up, to Yuta’s new Jacob’s Ladder, there’s plenty to dive into. Here’s the full breakdown of everything new and changed in this update.
Yuki Rework – New Abilities and Death Awakening
Yuki received one of the most substantial changes in this update, essentially giving her a brand-new playstyle.
Mass Buildup (New R Ability)
Activating this ability consumes your mode bar.
Once triggered, it modifies several of Yuki’s abilities, essentially transforming her into a new character.
Updated Move Set
Guard Stab → Enhanced into a much more powerful strike when Mass Buildup is active.
Mass Breaker → Gains additional effects during R mode.
Rising Rage → Visually reworked, feels more impactful and flashy.
Guarded Rebound → Now features a unique kick animation, adding variety to her combo playstyle.
Death Awakening
Yuki now has a different Death Awakening animation, though its purpose is still unclear as it doesn’t seem to deal direct damage.
Overall, Yuki’s rework makes her much more versatile and fun to use, giving players a reason to revisit her in PvP and beyond.
Gojo – 0.2 Second Domain & Ability Buffs
Gojo already stood as one of the most dominant characters, and this update pushes him even higher.
0.2 Second Domain Expansion
Activated by pressing G + R.
Works as a powerful ultimate-like ability rather than granting a mode.
On activation, Gojo surges across the map, wiping out enemies in his path.
Capable of one-shotting multiple opponents if caught within the domain’s reach.
Ability Buffs
Unlimited Purple → Now deals increased damage.
Reversal Red → Gains a new stun mechanic if used against an enemy casting a skill.
With these buffs, Gojo is set to dominate the battlefield even more frequently.
Yuta – Jacob’s Ladder and Move Variants
Yuta didn’t receive as many sweeping changes as Yuki or Gojo, but his kit got some exciting additions.
New Variants
True Love Beam (Use Again) → A shorter, faster variant of his standard beam, useful for tighter situations without knocking opponents too far away.
Resolute Slashes – Black Flash → Updated with improved visual effects, making it more impactful in combat.
Jacob’s Ladder (Domain Use Again)
Accessible during his Authentic Mutual Love Domain.
Requires a target and unleashes a devastating strike that destroys the domain and one-shots the enemy caught in it.
The animation is brief, but the effect is dramatic – Jacob’s Ladder is one of the strongest finishers in the game right now.
Other Character & Balance Changes
Itadori (Vessel)
- Fainting now consumes awakening instead of being free to spam.
- Counter hits removed from melee attacks.
- Perfect blocking removed entirely.
- Visual rework for Black Flash.
These adjustments make Itadori less oppressive in PvP, but still strong in capable hands.
Aspiring Mangaka
- Damage values increased, making him more threatening in combat.
Defense Attorney
- Received several balance changes focused on damage tweaks.
Quality of Life & System Updates
- Crow spectator system added for roulettes.
- A brand-new tutorial system introduced for newcomers.
- Emotes ranking system included.
- PS+ changes:
- Burst NPC option removed.
- “Burst” renamed to Evasive.
- Awakening disable option added.
This Jujutsu Shenanigans update is one of the most impactful yet.
- Yuki feels like a whole new character thanks to her Mass Buildup transformation.
- Gojo’s 0.2 Second Domain might be the flashiest (and deadliest) addition in the game so far.
- Yuta gains Jacob’s Ladder, cementing him as a high-stakes finisher in late battles.
- Balance tweaks to Itadori and others should help smoothen the meta moving forward.
If you main any of these characters, now’s the perfect time to test out their new abilities. The update not only shakes up PvP, but also makes gameplay far more exciting with flashy mechanics and satisfying power-ups.
