However , recent twists conduct toJujutsu Kaisen ’s imminent endalsomade me rethink its direction — in a good way .

Jujutsu Kaisen’s Stakes Only Get Higher
The Shibuya Incident Lit The Fuse For A Total Explosion
The large moments in the serial all commence after the Shibuya Incident arc . The world iseffectively in shambles following it , and curses roam freely . This setting supply the background against whichJujutsu Kaisen ’s human relationship will grow ever deeper , its difference more dire , andits adventure the high they ’ve ever been .
Yuji ’s capital punishment is now a priority , leading him to fake his last once more . subsequently , Megumi ’s sister is made the center of a battle royale hosted by Kenjaku called the Culling Game , which Megumi win over Yuji to link up for aid her rescue . The events which accompany leading to the Shinjuku Showdown arc , whereSukuna remove over Megumi ’s body and then battles one sorcerer after another . Kenjaku and Sukuna ’s goal isto unify all life in Japan with Master Tengen , who Sukuna intends to press after all is said and done , while Kenjaku apparently is only queer to see what will ensue from the fusion .
The Combat Just Keeps Getting Better
Few Series Use Battle To Greater Effect ThanJujutsu Kaisen
" Hype " alone does not a good battle shōnen make . Any tenured anime fan do it that a " hype " fight falls flat unless the fight and its context are interesting . A battle shōnen trying to be " ballyhoo " isonly deserving as much as the case and scenario it establishes . Jujutsu Kaisenhas always been a peculiarly hype franchise , but it outdoes itself in the arcs following the Shibuya Incident .
The manga - only portion ofJujutsu Kaisenhas some tremendous battle . Beyond just the elements of fervor and expectation , thesituations established can be very creative . My favorite deterrent example of this so far is between Kenjaku and Takaba . take property between a comedian - release - sorcerer and the maledict spirit user donning Suguru Geto ’s consistence , the battle is one ofJujutsu Kaisen ’s emotionally complex fighting , as Takaba ’s proficiency puts the two in a variety of grievous confrontation masquerading as comic place .
The explosive , long - anticipate battle between Satoru Gojo and Sukunaalso finally come to decease . What ’s incredible , though , is the stiff impulse of the bulk ofJujutsu Kaisen ’s manga - only fights . While not every fight captivates as much as Gojo vs. Sukuna , none underwhelm . They’redeftly worked into the extensive battle at hand , fleshing out characters emotionally and give great ( but realistic ) use of resources uncommitted to sorcerers - even , often , other necromancer .

But More Than That, He Shows Why He’sJujutsuKaisen’s Protagonist
This excellence at structuring the series ' battles extends to Yuji . In fact , they make him the glorious protagonist viewers and readers have always trust he would become . For a while , Yuji take jolly of a backseat in the manga , puff anger from fan who felt the serial was becoming unfocussed . However , a series of major power - ups recently haveshown Yuji to be an unstoppable force-out . He lands several Black Flashes on Sukuna in a row and even lucubrate his domain at long last in one of the series ' most satisfying moments yet .
He ’s also been givena far more important affixation to his ally , the Earth , and its stake . As regards Sukuna , the revelation that Yuji is the son of his reincarnated twin is lurid . With Megumi , Yuji ’s sufferance of the go to link up the Culling Game and save his baby would lead to the connection between the two becoming cryptical than ever . After Sukuna necessitate over Megumi ’s torso , the irreplaceable relationship between the two undoubtedly plays a part in Yuji ’s decision to make a stick vow so that his Dismantle stands a opportunity of separating them without damage to Megumi .
As affair progress , Yuji link hands with other thaumaturge , including some new and endearing look like Hiromi Higurama . In an extremely clench interference , his best admirer Todo even makes an coming into court to save the day , which is where the manga presently leaves us . Yuji ’s power and depth only continue to climb .

Jujutsu Kaisen’s Toughest Choices Require A Different Perspective
Tackling Tricky Themes PutsJujutsu KaisenIn A Troubling Spot
One ’s life and bequest are in the fragments one foliage of oneself — that ’s what gives significance to life and expiry likewise .
During Yuji ’s aforementioned domain expansion , some core themes are drive home , giving a important reason for all the decisionsJujutsu Kaisenhas made -even the most painful or refutable ace . In Yuji ’s field , he talks about how his outlook on spirit and death has change . He had essentially realized that the way or means of one ’s expiry does n’t matter , in compare to the fragments one leave to ripple through the cosmos .
Jujutsu Kaisenhas never been a franchise that ’s afraid of killing characters off . Many believe that the absolute number of dead sorcerers depart behind in the interminable destruction is unreasonable . In realness , I think this trail of too bad carnagereaffirms one ofJujutsu Kaisen ’s most unmanageable base : one ’s life and legacy are in the fragments one leaf of oneself — that ’s what gives meaning to lifespan and death alike .
Gojo ’s death and failure to shut down Sukuna was disappointing to his many sports fan , and the fact it cameso shortly after his outlet from the Prison Realmmade matter worse . However , something that happens afterward retroactively reminds of Yuji ’s domain expanding upon : Yuta , once Gojo ’s student and Yuji ’s rely executioner , takes over Gojo ’s body as part of the grand offence against Sukuna .
Far from being disrespectful to Gojo , it was actually handled cleverly and graciously . Yuta tries to take advantage of Gojo ’s mightiness via his written matter technique . However , because Yuta was n’t used to Gojo ’s Limitless , he conk out to perfectly mirror Gojo ’s technique . Far from defile Gojo ’s body and memory , it ’s - in a weird , circuitous manner -actually a celebration of Gojo .
Yuji , at this distributor point , isthe pile of fragment left behind by those beloved character who died .

In chapter # 265 , I saw the faces of the bright characters who I once indignantly believed were claim away from me by tough or sadistic writing . Nanami and Nobara , for instance , were all - fourth dimension favorites of mine . At that instant , I take in the committal to writing was only sadistic to the extent that I was unwilling to comprehend a different , more important subject matter : the dealership ’s cardinal speculation on heartbreak and significance . Yuji , at this point , isthe peck of fragments left behind by those beloved characters who die .
In sum , I felt that the journeying had been worth it - they had been recalled , the single reasons I became attached toJujutsu Kaisenin the first place . They were n’t the only one who give out in the series , but they were the single I sire to recognize , and whose memory I would become attached to . So , as Yuji recalls them , I feel a gleam of what he feels as he calls on his friends ' memory to boldly but indirectly narrate Sukuna he does n’t care how he diesbut for the fragments he ’ll leave behind .
When Yuji then matter - of - factly tells Sukuna he can kill him if he does n’t leave Megumi ’s body , state his ruth in turn , Sukuna ’s vicious reply signals the end of the journeying nearing . The worked up toll is totaled , Yuji is at his strongest ever , and the final showdown is on the horizon . With the exact date for the close of the serial already foretell , I will be on the bound of my seat , grateful I acquire the time to catch up withJujutsu Kaisen .
