Title says it all. Most Yuta fans will place him second behind Gojo because of this
And many argue that the narrator saying it makes it true. But what does it mean to be second in unusual abilities?
Here is a thread by a well-known translator in the fandom, who often provides insight and analysis of JJK and its translations.
OP’s conclusion: “ … Truth is, I think that would be a fairly safe bet. It’s imbued into the implications of the comparison. However, Gege also has a tendency to be clear on certain notions & if he wanted to declare that then he would have just straight up said it, e.g. 現代の強者, 次ぐ現代の最強”
“ Therefore, I believe Gege deliberately used 異能 to provide an amount of leeway & flexibility into the discussion. We have ppl like Hakari who Yuta claims is > than him on a roll; anomalies like Maki; unknown SGs like Yuki; or even debatable categories like Kenjaku in Geto’s body”
“ So while Yuta’s position next to Gojo is a highly probable assessment, there is SOME room for debate as other characters as they all grow, including Yuta himself. Unlike Gojo, whom Gege constantly makes clear as the modern era’s strongest w/ no room for doubt”
Personally I agree with this assessment that there is room for debate to his ranking as Yuta’s performance in Sendai made it hard to believe for me that he is on the level of a country overtaker.
