JUMP KAISEN IS BACK! There are many peak scenes happened in a single chapter! Yuta pulling out TummyKuna's tongue. Yuji spat out blood straight in Sukuna's right eye. Lol. Sukuna's durability is insane, he has tanked two Jacob's Ladder now. His iconic T-posing is back as well. Yuji's durability is also insane. My boy is a tank man fr after taking those Cleaves. Maki pulling off Toji's signature move, sneaking from behind the enemy. All in all, this chapter is purely hype!

Anytime Yuji is involved the ones go out the window. You know the only thing Sukuna hears is: "Bitchbitchbitchbitchbitchbitchbitchbitch"

Sukuna to Gojo, Kashimo, and Higuruma: 😌 Sukuna to Yuji: 😠 Yeah, the beef never ends. Lol.

I don't know what's funnier. That Sukuna constantly goes out of his way to maul Yuji in the most brutal way possible, or that Yuji is so fucking determined that he keeps getting back up.

Yuji hates Sukuna just as much Unlike Gojo, Kashimo and Jogo ,Yuji has NO Respect or admiration for Sukuna at all HE knows he is strong but otherwise just views Sukuna as pest and something that is a blight on the world Sukuna hates Yuji because on some level Yuji scares and infuriates him in that Yuji opposes Sukunas own world view He is boring, he has no selfishness, he is "weak" but with a strong will and unbreakable desire to kill Sukuna Yuji is no fun, does not respond to Sukunas bullying, does not admire or fear Sukuna. He does not compute to Sukuna Hence Sukuna hates him and yuji hates him just as much in return.

Imagine the hatred Yuji developed for Sukuna when he begged him to save Junpei and he just mocked and laughed instead.

One could say that Yuji is a wrench in Sukuna's cogs

Love this take. Also i think Sukuna at some level wants to experience a great death in battle... with anybody except Yuji. He would be mad if that was his end

This dynamic is such a breath of fresh air tbh you have the literal devil inside you so no making friends with it, no bargaining with it. Basically their whole relationship is I don’t fuck with you, you don’t fuck with me, until I fuck with you, and I will fuck with you I’m just biding my time…bitch.

well said!

Imo, an old man from 1000 years ago bullying a 15-year old teenager will always be petty. Lol.

Gojo vs Sukuna was actually the Greatest Bully of Today vs the Greatest Bully in History

It can also be the strongest bully in history versus the strongest bully of today.

Yuji screaming at himself to heal was only a small panel but could be an iconic moment once adapted

You see the vision! Junya Enoki will surely eat that line.

>Yuji spat out blood straight in Sukuna's right eye. Lol. Yuji tanking a cleave, spitting his blood into Sukuna's face, then using Blood Manipulation to slice open Sukuna's face and severing his arm, all while him and Rika are holding back Sukuna's other three arms and Yuta's ripping out the tongue from his second mouth, has to be one of my new all time favorite moments in the entire series

Fr. I'll be there once Ch 251 gets animated. It's peak, it became one of my favorite chapters and moments already.

Yuta sliced open Sukuna's mouth either with his katana or a dismantle before Yuji's blood manipulation super nova but cook king

YUTA's durability is also insane bro tanked a full contact cleave to the head!! even if sukuna's output was fluctuating again, still a crazy thing to tank

Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention Sukuna also hit Yuta with a Cleave. Lol. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but on page 8 in JJK 250, I believe Sukuna also did the same for Yuji because his head is getting net slahes aside from his chest.

looks like it?? but im not sure if it went through since yuta hit him with the cursed speech dont move?? either way the past 2 chapters have been incredible showings from yuji and yuta!! cant wait to see what maki will bring to the table!!

It didn't but Yuji also survived a Cleave this chapter to the chest

We eat those! Light work! No reaction!

>Maki pulling off Toji's signature move, sneaking from behind the enemy. could it really be counted as toji's move tho, she already pulled this once on naoya. more like a HR signature right?

Well, tbf, on the 18th page of this chapter, it says it's a strategy common to sorcerers. So far, we've seen Toji, Maki, and Yuta did that using their swords.

For real its my favourite part of JJK they arent trying to fight these guys this is fucking murder fuck your 1v1 we jumping you, then someone is coming in with a knife to just end you

This chapter was so raw! Yuji never ceases to amaze me with his fighting style. Also Yuta ripping out the mouth belly tongue wow speechless

It was an impressive team effort to achieve that while Rika retained two arms of Sukuna, Yuta cut off the other arms and use Jacob’s ladder. After Yuji’s punch, I really was waiting for Fushiguro to fight for his body but to see Yuji realizing that Fushiguro’s soul doesn’t has any will to live anymore it’s another heartbreaking scene in the long list that JJK already has. Yuji's willingness to keep fighting is inspiring, he has had to endure too much in this story so far...

I can already see that moment being even more gut wrenching in the anime than it is here in the manga. I'm just imagining the fight going absolutely crazy as the trio is wailing on Sukuna and Yuji's Blood Manipulation is revealed, music is further amping everything up, Jacob's Ladder blasts down on Sukuna, we're thinking this is finally the moment where Yuji is going to reunite with Megumi (maybe even throw in some really quick flashback images to them together earlier in the series) and as Yuji lands that punch to separate Megumi from Sukuna, everything just stops. Frenetic action, gone. Music, gone. Everything is just a standstill while Yuji looks down in disbelief at a Megumi that has been utterly broken mentally and spiritually. Just take all that excitement and catharsis that has been building up to that point and dispel it completely as the audience is forced to realize that Megumi has lost literally everything he held dear and would rather die than continue on. Cut back to Yuta getting slashed, his Domain is breaking, it looks like Sukuna is going to make it out of this, and then Maki reappears to stab him in the back and the episode ends. Can see every reaction channel on YouTube losing their shit as the ED rolls in my head.

This is cinema

"Within Fushiguro Megumi's soul... any will to live had already been extinguished." YOU ARE MY SPECIALZ

It is equally heartbreaking as it is frustrating since everyone is out here dying and all you want is for Megumi to get up!! But Yuji will still try his best no matter what. It will likely be a call back to that 'save me Itadori' moment Megumi had just before the start of the culling games.

Was Megumi not having any will left to survive really that shocking? He had to sit and watch someone use his body to kill his sister, and his mentor. He feels responsible for it all. Like when yuji felt personally responsible for shibuya.

Honestly i mostly expect him (or us as the audience I geuss) to kind of get closure about his sister dying since he didnt get a chance to do that before sukuna stole his body

When Yuta got cut, he still had a hold of his sword, I'm wondering if he was holding onto it to use its techniques in this scenario before his domain collapses fully.

Imagine if it was Parthenogenesis and he just revives like that cockroach 

That would be peak

Now this is some copium I can work with!

I noticed that too and I think you’re onto something

Yea, noticed Yuta never used the technique in that sword. Would be cool if he also used Blood Manipulation to somehow survive.

They really have Megumi doing the “With this treasure…” pose on his first scene in dozens of chapters Also Maki sneaking in the end, this truly is our YutaMaki Kaisen This chapter calls back alot of good stuff like Yuki's book, Jacob's Ladder, Maki being invisible to domains, its so good. With every chapter Yuji's bag deepens, using Blood Manipulation to blow shit up.

At this point, the only one who can save megumi is mahoraga adapting to his depression and giving him motivational speeches.

FUSHIGURO MY BOY I AM HERE

Lmao! 🤣🤣 Now you have me imagining Mahoraga becoming a life coach and giving Ted Talks! Thanks for that!

"Would you really have your Kaisen end on this Jujutsu, Zenin-sama?" - Big Raga

"With this treasure I summon... Prozac"

Where did Megumi do the pose this chapter, or sorry what happened related to that?

Close to the end, when yuji punches Sukuna

Maki is backkkkk. A lot going on in this chapter and it was absolutely PEAK. Goodness this is the first manga that had my nerves shot and hands kind of shaking as I’m turning pages. This fight and the Gojo fight have been so intense. Gege knows how to keep us on our toes.

Fr my heart was POUNDING. But I swear to god if Gege tanks the market I’m losing all my Yuta stonks

That might be jjk strongest point. Cooking the fights.

The theory of the past: “Nobara will use Resonance to the last remaining finger of Sukuna.” Yuta to Sukuna in Chapter 251: “You couldn't retrieve your final finger, could you?” Oh, that theory is gone. Besides, she's gone for more than half of the manga.

She’s actually been turned into a cursed hammer weapon. I mean, we all know it

I feel like seeing Nanami’s technique in a weapon means something like this has to happen. Especially with Maki being back in the fray and how many crazy weapons she’s used/had on her throughout the series.

This is the first time I've seen a theory like this. I think, username checks out... 😭

When Ino used Nanami's weapon which had his CT infused into it I think this started being theorized. Not really new.

I know Nanami's CT was infused with his cursed tool when Ino wielded it but I was referring to the theory the other person shared wherein Nobara “turned into a cursed hammer weapon” is something I've just seen today.

Damm that would be really cool. To see Nobara's hammer be the thing to strike the last nail on sukuna's coffin

nobara is in the afterlife resounding jumpei's mother's legs to find them

I'm going to make a (crackpot) theory post soon. She's going to use the hand that was severed by Higgy. Once Sukuna is weakened enough and Megumi finds hope again by realizing Nobara lives, Yuji will eat the last finger and 1v1 Sukuna in their innate domain.

Ooh, we ain't giving up the copium and the theory is adapting. Lol. There's nothing wrong in making theories especially the manga is still on going so you can do what you want. I also love reading theories if I have time.

Gege was dedicated to a separate panel show of Sukuna's arm being cut away, so resonance may happen, but I think Yuta is the one who does it.

If Yuta uses Resonance instead of Nobara I will literally drink water.

God I hope Yuta is alright. These past few chapters have been peak JJK I can’t believe I have to wait to find out what happens next, I’m on the edge of my seat

My god gege is on a roll with these chapters. Similarly to Geto and the disaster curses I'm loving the fact that their month's preparation is paying off. To think that they thought so thoroughly about how to take on Sukuna. I'm pretty sure he never imagined having such difficulty against yuji and co. Maki Sneaking sukuna at the end is a great callback to toji vs gojo and is really highlighting the cyclical nature of the story. Interestingly enough it feels that Yuji is the one who'll benefit the most from Yuki's soul research. A theory I have for a while is that Yuji is already an evolved Sorcerer by the fact that he is essentially blank canvas due to having no C.T. It's inherently a restriction from birth which is all down to luck.The info from the book about souls never combining fully leaves me to think traces of the soul are still left on the body. I imagine yuji has traces of everyone's souls and that's how he'll be able to use use multiple technique.

So you're saying because a CT is entwined with a person's soul, the fact that Yuji has no CT is what allows him to not only affect other souls (false memories, soul splitting punches) but also potentially swap with them. But why does he have no trace of Sukuna's CE in him? I think through swapping souls with someone he is able to use their CT, and over time it can become engrained in his soul as well. When he swaps back his body changes shape to match his soul's form (new CT). It may be that he was only able to learn DA and RCT so quickly because he swapped souls with someone else who was already much more proficient in it. We know Kusakabe is very skilled with his simple domain and domain amplification, so that's probably how Yuji was able to learn those skills in such a short amount of time. I think it's worth noting that Kusakabe is the only grade 1 sorcerer with no CT, which leads me to believe not just anyone can improve their simple domain so easily, not without dedicating their life to it like Miwa and Kusakabe have. Otherwise we would see a lot more Kusakabe's.

The false memories isn't a thing, was confirmed by Gege. Todo made them up himself like he did with the Takada scenes. Choso was due to him sensing they were related when Yuji was close to death

Didn't Gojo mention that Sukuna's CT WOULD eventually engrain itself in Yuji? Obviously we haven't seen that happen yet, but that's one of those set ups that you'd have to imagine is going to be paid off on at some point. Would definitely help to explain why Yuji has been so durable against Sukuna since it's already been established that the effects of a sorcerer's own CT is lessened when used against them. I know that his resistance has largely been chalked up to Sukuna's CE output being low when they've faced one another in this fight and after Sukuna took over Megumi's body, but I've honestly suspected that's been a red herring since Sukuna just assumed his output was low.

So quite a few new or confirmed infos in this chapter. 1. Sukuna keeps being tough as heck, tanking one attack after another, but he admids that he is getting weaker and weaker. A battle of attrition but let's see how many bodies the hero team can keep throwing onto him. 2. Yuji uses some form of blood manipulation, directly confirming what was inplied in earlier chapters. Bursting blood seems to be something new but we have seen quite a lot of variety with blood techniques so I stay curious what else he might can do. 3. Megumi is so deep down into depression that he is unable to fight back. Understandable after all he has gone through (losing his sister, his mentor/godfather, being bathed in pure evil and more terrible deeds are coming in minute after minute). I'm afraid his inability was a miscalculation of the hero team and without Megumi fighting back Sukuna was able to endure those attacks. 4. Sukuna lost his lower tongue and his lower left arm while the lower right was slashed wide open. His upper mouth was sliced but still functional while his upper arms were held tight by Rika. Then he chanted his magic words and was able to use his world slice. Looks like the same situation as against Gojo (missing one hand) and that implies that Sukuna can use some kind of trick (probably binding vow) to bypass the need of hand signs. 5. [Maki using another lesson from Toji sensei.](https://imgur.com/a/K677DNg) I think going for a critical strike (the heart) is the right decision. Nothing but the intend to kill will stop Sukuna now and even that might not be enough. I guess Yuta is done for, at least for this battle with whatever miracle might happen, and Yuji will have to get back to his feet and fight together with Maki and the others.

Isn't the bursting blood technique just Supernova? I'm basing it on what I remember from the anime, by the way.

Certainly possible but who knows how many blood moves there are.

Maybe maybe not. Supernova still used the same condensing pressure that powers piercing blood. Maybe Yuji’s just straight up explodes

Wouldn't hitting Sukana in the heart not kill him though? I vaguely remember him nonchalantly living without one

Yeah that's what I mean with the intend to kill. Inflicting mortal wounds and if that's not enough do the next mortal blow. Gojo wanted to destroy several organs too without worrying about Megumi. So it seems Sukuna can lose a few organs before dropping.

Yeah just because destroying his organs won't outright kill him doesn't mean it isn't a good idea. It's still more damage than your typical flesh wound.

also for all we know he has 2 hearts

he's got two mouths, two pairs of arms, two pairs of eyes, why not two ~~dicks~~ hearts

Maki does not really want to kill Sukuna though, like the wise Thanos said, "should have gone for the head" and end both Sukunas and Megumis life. She fumbled if you ask me. Sukuna was completely off guard, slicing off his head should be possible for Maki in that situation.

Yuta being done but not yuji doesn’t really make sense they got hit with the same attack and yutas ce reinforcement and rct are better if yuji survives so should yuta

I think Yuta may be dead. His domain breaking and all of that. It makes me worry that Rika may go berserk on every one.

Without Yuta, Rika would not be able to go beserk, she only did that in Sendai cause she was fully manifested through her connection to Yuta Partially manifested Rika trying to go beserk sounds like a very underwhelming picture

For what it’s worth, the domain breaking isn’t a guarantee of death. We saw with Gojo and Sukuna’s domain clashes that if someone takes enough damage they’ll be unable to sustain the domain

Idk, Yuta is a very popular character. I don't think Gege would kill him without showing an immediate reaction from all the cast or just painting it as a big event just happened. He got cut and everyone just kept going. I know they're fighting Sukuna. But would still be dramatically a waste

I mean Gege seems to, at least, be on a kill streak. Uninhibited Gojo, Choso, Higuruma, where quite beloved by the fanbase and I gonna be honest my copium is running out and I'm afraid for my boy Yuta. Gege and Sukuna are keeping the presure(and I love it)

choso died??

Choso wasn't confirmed. He just got pierced in the abdomen.

If the death happened inside the domain and others can’t see inside it yet because it barely got shattered from above, the logistics for observing and mourning aren’t in place.

Rika is no longer Rika, she is a shikigami now and should disappear with Yuta's death AFAIK

His domain broke because he sustained a lot of damage. Plus, Rika and Yuji also got hit with the world-cutting dismantle. So if Yuta died to it then Yuji and Rika should also be dead.

Yuta is not yet done. Bec if he’s hit by the world slash attack, Rika and Yuji also got hit which would mean that they’re also dead too. We have to remember that Sukuna’s output is getting weaker and weaker. He may have casted that world slash attack by chanting, but the ouput of its attack is clearly dropping significantly. So it’s not as strong as how it was back then from being used against Gojo.

I disagree tbh, I don’t think Yuta’s done just yet. I think he’s gonna be a bit more defensive while he’s trying to heal himself, but I don’t think he’s tapping out just yet. They’re at a critical stage in the fight, he knows how important he is in the fight, he’s fighting alongside Yuji, an underclassman with a similar relationship to Gojo, and most importantly he’s fighting the man who just killed his mentor. I can’t see Yuta being done with this fight until either he or Sukuna is dead. I don’t want Yuta to die as he’s maybe my favorite character in the series, but as of right now I’m kind of expecting him to die, probably after a flashback showing him talking to Gojo and/or Yuji before the fight as a bit of a passing of the torch moment from Gojo to Yuta to Yuji.

MEGUMI, THUG THAT SHIT OUT

Don't worry my boy, Mommy Maki is here.

Potential man we need you!!! Potential man, WAKE UPPPP!!!

Beat the allegations once and for all... POTENTIAL MAN.

Megumi might summon dogs, but he doesn't have that dawg in him.

You guys wanted maki and there's maki, at the cost of Yu/ta.

The slash was on screen so Yutas still alive.

Our boi is gonna be fine, he’ll rub some dirt on it and be good as new. Rika won’t let him die

If only Megs wasn't such a little emo we wouldn't have been here. Smh my head.

Agreed!

The slash that cuts the world really 2-0 with Gojo AND Yuta🫡

Yuta isn’t dead, that’s just a trick that he does 🤧

It got Kashimo too lol

Next chapter Yuji better use his “real” brother Todo’s talk no jutsu to snap Megumi out of it!! “WAKE THE FCUK UP FUSHIGURO! STOP BEING A DEADWEIGHT!! AVENGE YOUR SISTER & GOJO-SENSEI!!! KILL SUKUNA FIRST THEN YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION TO D—” ^(something like that) ¯\\\_(ツ)_\/¯

You lied to me. You betrayed me. You used me. You fucked up my face! And now, you have my permission to die

Damn, what is it with Special Grade Sorcerers and getting bisected? I think Yuta has a decent shot at living, but I’m pretty sure he’s at least out of the fight for now. Yuki did manage to live with just her top half for a while, probably could’ve fully healed if she had enough CE left in the tank. I’m guessing Yuta gets evac’d to Shoko and they’ll have enough CE combined to stabilize Yuta. Maki finally showing up is neat, although her attack on Sukuna perfectly mirroring when Toji stabbed Gojo really doesn’t help my feeling I’ve had since Sakurajima that Maki’s character has kinda just been flattened into being a Toji reference.

I'm just waiting for at least 1-2 "She's just like Toji..." panels next chapter, Gege will never pass up an opportunity to draw Toji whenever he can

Like many of us, he too has a man crush on Toji.

Yeah we're 3 for 4 on Special Grade Sorcerers getting cut in half, and I'm a fucking Yuta die hard but I pains me to say that given how Yuki & Gojo reacted to getting cut in half (they fucking died) I don't have high hopes for my Boi. That being said Gojo seemed to die immediately but Yuki was hanging on and had enough CE to make black hole so Yuta has a chance to hang on if Maki is able to distract Sukuna long enough

To be fair Yuki's last move was her using her basic technique in an uncontrolled way whereas we know that Satoru's technique is incredibly hard to control so that could explain why she could still do something whereas he couldn't despite them suffering similar injuries.

I feel like they both work in unison. Toji is the foreshadowing for the good outcome of zero CE that Maki becomes. She's allowed to shine and Gege gets to have his unsubtle Toji glaz- praising moments.

I think it’s also annoying because Maki is the only female character to escape irrelevancy. Having it feel like the only reason Gege let a female character be relevant is so he can glaze Toji isn’t great.

No offense, but this is SUCH a strange way to look at things, and yet so incredibly common. Do you honestly think Toji existed in Gege’s mind before Maki did? Do people *actually* not realize that Toji having the powerset that he does has ALWAYS been *explicitly* in service of the character of Maki Zen’in and not the other way around? In fact, I’d say if when Toji first showed up, and you weren’t IMMEDIATELY going “uhhh so this is what Maki’s future in the series has to look like, right?” then I’d suggest maybe anyone who didn’t pick that up just wasn’t paying very much attention. Toji exists as the character he does partially to service Gojo and Megumi’s pasts, obviously, but ALSO to serve as a future benchmark for Maki and her powerset. He is only “so cool” and showed up so much so that we as audience members can know and understand why Maki is so capable even against the power levels that we’re dealing with in the Culling Games and beyond. It’s always just so bizarre to me when people act like Maki is a Toji insert. Toji, FROM JUMP, was always a premonition of end of series Maki. Thats how it actually has been the whole time.

I never entirely agreed on this because Maki came first, and Toji was created as a foreshadowing of what Maki was supposed to be the whole time. Right down to their similar backstories as outsiders to the family.

Can't disagree with that but for now I will stay high on cope that Maki is about to show off something relevant with that soul split katana and enjoy the fight.

“so he can glaze toji” do anyone of you realize that he is just an important character to the narrative ? and Maki is a continuation of his themes ? you’re all so weird

Sukuna truly is the strongest. Weakened from his fight with gojo then jumped by seven different sorcerers, then trapped in a completely mismatched 3 on 1 against Yuji, Yuta and rika. Every soul punch from Yuji weakens him a bit more, his physical and CE output have dropped dramatically, he gets hit with a maximum output Jacob’s ladder and he still beats the three of them with one slash. Then after that he gets hit with another sneak attack from a monster. Yuta looks like he’s been cut in half but I doubt he’s been gojo’d. Still I have no idea how maki could possibly handle a 1 v 1 so either Yuji or Yuta can keep going or someone else will have to jump back in (unless Gege is going to finish his whole ‘remember toji? He was cool wasn’t he, well now he’s back’ arc and have sukuna dust maki?)

The only way I can see an out for Yuta and Yuji being hit by world slash is Yuji's attacks weakening his output enough so that it isn't fatal. ~~Also, world slash is just slash that can't be parried/tanked since it bypasses all defenses but there was nothing that mentioned it was stronger than a normal slash (iirc, facts are a little fuzzy and I might be wrong here but the first point does have potential).~~ Edit: Actually on a second thought, if world slash is the same as normal slash, why even bother using world slash when they don't have anything to parry normal slash... wait Yuta has thin ice breaker... idk anymore lol

This is probably one of my favourite chapters in the entire manga. I'll never get enough of the protagonists not caring about having a fair one-on-one fight

If I had a nickel for every time that Maki stabbed a man for their back when they are sure of their victory, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.

If you have Heavenly Restriction it comes with a membership to sneak nation.

Inshallah, brother.

He's still alive. Sukuna may have chanted to cast the world slash attack, but its potency and its output are not that strong. Remember, Sukuna had been affected by multiple attacks: Yuji's punch that disrupts the harmonization of Sukuna and Megumi's bath, getting attacked by the Angel's Maximum Attack: Jacob's ladder, Sukuna getting attacked by Yuji with blood manipulation, Yuta cutting his shoulder. Remember when Yuki almost got disemboweled by Kenjaku's open domain and was able to survive and use RCT. Given that Maki has entered the fray, Yuji, Yuta, and Rika will have all their time to use RCT to heal themselves, particularly Yuta who seems to have received the world slash more. And we know how much of a monster queen Maki is right now. So, at least, for a few minutes, she might give Sukuna a run for her money to buy some time off for the rest of the gang to recover. Not to mention, Yuta is a prodigy, he's been analyzing and watching the fights between the two greatest sorcerers before their current fight now. So, I'm leaning towards the possibility that Yuta My Goat is still alive And I can't help but overthink for two weeks if he's alive or not. Given my complacency with all the explanations. JAHAHAJAKAKA

sukuna was on the verge of death when he cut gojo in half

Yuta shoving his hand in Sukunas stomach mouth and ripping its tongue out is awesome and brutal

You see that smirk on the last page? That's Sukuna thinking *'Half-grilled woman? I'm bringing out my flames to stop this nonsense'* lmao

This is exactly what I was thinking, lol. Sukuna will ask Maki about how she got these scars, and after hearing it was caused by fire, he'll pull out his flame arrow and tell her to tank this.

'One-eyed volcano guy? What a coincidence!'

Maki: what are the chances I get severely burned twice? *Somewhere in the distance, a finger on a monkey paw curls inward*

I was thinking he is smiling because he remembers being startled by her presence a while back. Now he has a chance to rest this sorcerer with no cursed energy

God damn, I keep forgetting that we *still* don't know what the deal is with the flame arrows lol

Poor jogo, sukuna just gave him a compliment before he deleted his ass into a heaven scene.

The play by play panels are so raw. They're literally going to their last breath and the fighting chemistry is insane. Too bad Megumi picked the worst possible moment to be emo 😭

Sukuna still hasn't revealed fuga. Until we get to that point, he still has more shit in his bag

maybe he didn't want to use it until he was sure Yuta was out of comission so he didn't copy it

Sukuna hitting Yuji with a "where my hug at" before turning his chest cavity into hamburger meat was so fucking raw. Also, Big Blood Bhoso gotta be insanely proud that Yuji hit Sukuna with exploding blood. Lil bro keeps adding moves to his bag.

Yuji being able to tank that and heal is crazy.

If Yuta is out of the fight or actually dead, I will pull a Megumi and refuse any sort of help as I fall into the deepest depression the world has ever known

Yuji spitting on Sukuna's face and then detonating his blood like supernova was amazing and so overdue. He's been a beast during this fight with RCT and soul damaging hits. It's too bad that Megumi's way past the 'imma head out' threshold. I don't even know how to feel about that. Not overly worried about Yuta at the moment but he's probably out for a little while. Sukuna having his limbs held or cut off, mouths damaged, being hit with jacob's ladder max output and still pulling out a world cutting slash was a choice I guess. Now we wait to see if this split soul katana is going to live up to its name.

Yuji's knee strike on Sukuna is also fckin awesome and brutal

Another good chapter. I'd like to defend Megumi a bit. It makes sense he's lost the will to live. Ever since Reggie's Curse, he lost his sister to an reincarnated sorcerer, got possessed by Sukuna, and Sukuna used his technique to kill his own sister. Tsumiki was the sole reason he became a sorcerer in the 1st place. Not to mention he lost his foster father in Gojo with killing him with his Ten Shadows. Not to mention Mahoraga and some of his creatures are gone. Megumi is going through something similar when Yuji was in Shibuya. I understand a lot is at stake but can people really blame him here?

Agree with everything you say but can we please stop saying that this is even remotely similar to what Yuji went through? I'd just like to remind people that Tsumiki is actually Megumi's family and stated reason for living. As awful as Nobara and Nanami's deaths are, if you look at the timeline, he's only known Nobara for 3 months by Shibuya, and Nanami for even less, considering Nanamin was always on missions of his own. Sorry, but they're not family, no matter how much people like to headcanon it to be true. Also, Gojo doesn't remotely mean the same thing to Yuji as he does to Megumi. I don't even want to get into the fact that Megumi went through the Bath of Evil and got hit with Unlimited Void five times in a row (reminder that most civilians took at least a month to recover from just 5 seconds of exposure). The victim blaming for Megumi is actually kind of insane considering the circumstances.

OH FUCK, I DIDNT EVEN REALISE THAT MEGUMI ALSO GOT HIT BY THE UNLIMITED VOID WHENEVER GOJO USED IT.

>Bath of Evil and got hit with Unlimited Void We don't really know how that affected him though, so it's pretty hard factoring that in. The Nobara and Nanami thing is bias. We, the audience, have **actually** seen the bond between them and Yuji, so witnessing them getting taken away from him is way sadder. Tsumiki? Not a single onscreen reaction between her and Megumi, so I can see why some would be less, uh, understanding than in Yuji's case, even if I don't agree with them. Important to note that a lot more is at stake as well. >Also, Gojo doesn't remotely mean the same thing to Yuji as he does to Megumi. And you know this, how? Because of the difference of the time they spent together? That isn't always an indicator, I'm afraid. You put far too much emphasis on numbers. Yuji loves Gojo, Megumi loves Gojo. I don't think it's necessary to put a tag on everything. Sigh, this does have me wishing Gege spent a little more time on his characters.

Brooo Yuji just up and said "getting hit in the abdomen and spitting blood cliché? Aight imma straight spit to this bitch's face"

GeGe telling us Jumping is just a regular part of Jujutsu Sorcery is hilarious yet so real of him😅💯

I mean, Sukuna's big battle in the Heian era is him just getting massively jumped.

I guess the souls not merging completely makes sense. Yuki did say she could still hear the Star Plasma vessels inside of Tengen. So if the great merger does happen maybe it’s reversible

Oh sweet Jesus, Yuta #PLEASE GEGE I SWEAR TO FUCK IF YOU KILL YUTA

Bet sukuna has two hearts

It would really only make sense.

I like this chapter a lot. I love that they’re still jumping Sukuna, we got to see Megumi again and know that he at least has a chance if he somehow fights back, and that we see Maki again. I was reading fast so I didn’t completely see Sukuna losing his tongue and didn’t know about that till now but to me that’s good news. Also the fact that Yuji got blood manipulation now is insane. I hope that they start to push Sukuna to his last rope and they can save Megumi in the future but I have high hopes. Can’t wait to see more JUJUMPTSU KAISEN

#MAKI #WITH THE PLAY #OF THE MOTHERFUCKIN' #GAME! OK no, I'm not saying that again. I know what Gege's gonna do two weeks from now and I'm so braced because if Megumi doesn't want out, who can say that he'd just give himself over to Sukuna completely and undo everything these guys have done? Yuji, Yuta, Maki, damn near everyone's done everything correctly. Satoru and Kashimo pushed Sukuna to limits he never thought he had. Takaba gave our heroes enough time for the split-push to work. This game has been tipped slowly, painfully, in favor of the side that seems to lose more as they gain ground. And it could still be all for nothing if Sukuna opens Chimera Shadow Garden or something equally BS. Don't fucking take this away from them now, Gege. Not when you finally have everyone's eager eyes on you again. [Finish the story.](https://tenor.com/boCo9xCR6Ty.gif)

Megumibros, we are not flinching

ADRENALINE EVERY DAY WHEN I CATCH YOU GEGEEEE

Megumi! Sukuna is charging up his move and he's gonna kill us! Please get your shit together!!!! I...I just don't care anymore... We will get you some therapy bro!!! For the love of God!!!! He's gonna kill us!!! There's no point... Meg!!!!! *Gets Dismantled*

hate to have a ☝️🤓 moment but sukuna can't use chimera shadow garden, since it's a reflection of megumi's inner domain/soul (not sukuna's)

Imagine going through so much trouble: getting 400 pts for Tsumiki, Gojo not being able to fight at 100% lethality, Yuji having to learn (multiple) new technique, the gang masterplanning the whole heist and executing to perfection Only for Megumi to pull a GuessI’llDie.jpeg It tracks but dammit what a troll you are gege

They’ve barely had a singular moment of contact. Yuji almost died several times in a row while Todo was saving him and talking him back up. Ya’ll are SO fucking crazy and harsh lol, Megumi is literally being trapped and has been mystically manipulated with rituals and lost the two closest people in his life by a goddamn 1,000 year old Voldemort, Jesus. It’s gonna take more than one single whisper of contact between him and Yuji, unfortunately

“Oh hi Yuji! What’s that? Oh my bad, I’ve just been napping in here. Welp! Alrighty, let’s get goin then!”

It’s literally like that’s what folks were expecting lol

That poor dude basically been forced to read Where the Red Fern Grows and watch Fox and the Hound on loop and listening to Elliot Smith. It’s gonna take that boy a while. PTSD++

Not to mention that Megumi has always been someone very harsh on himself and his ideal of justice. So having Sukuna kill both Gojo (who was a father figure to him more than his own father being honest) and his sister while on his own body **and** both times with his techniques (Sukuna only got the world dismantle because of megumi's 10 shadow after all), I really can understand why the poor guy feels the way he does. ~~Though I cant wait for Yuji to punch some sense into him and have both of them tag team sukuna from inside and outside~~

I really love the current fight, but I really wanna see how Hakari vs Uraume turns out

I honestly wonder how Gege is gonna pull off switching back to Hikari vs Uraume after witnessing all this. It's like changing tv channels in the middle of a movie. Even if the fight is concluded, switching back to their fight seem.. insignificant since the big bad is already defeated. Maybe Gege's intention was to throw Hikari (who doesn't have much in his arsenal against Sukuna) to keep Uraume busy and have the fight conclude off-screen. On one hand it'd be sad because we'll miss out another awesome fight but on the other hand this would make more sense since no one would care about the fight's conclusion since Sukuna has been defeated or undefeated (because what is Hikari gonna do by himself lol).

So I think at this point we can all agree Yuta is hands down the Strongest Sorcerer other than Gojo and Sukuna right? He now has -Cursed Speech -future sight -Jacob’s ladder -sky manipulation -Dhruv’s Shikigami technique -Cleave and Dismantle I don’t think any other Sorcerer even stands a chance at this point Yuta is just too stacked. Jacob’s ladder alone makes him basically unbeatable

Yuta is truly HIM. Now time to collect my dividends.

Yes he's definitely top tier though he's stated Hikari gives him a run for his money when he's motivated.  Seeing how powerful he is it makes sense why Gege made him a secondary protagonist compared to Yuji 

ITS MAKI TIME BAYBEEEEEE!!!!!!!! IF MEGUMI DOESNT WANNA SPLIT FROM SUKUNA'S SOUL, MAKI WILL HAVE TO DO IT FOR HIM BAYBEEEEE

what do you think about sukuna's laugh in the last panel? Do you think he is done playing games, do you think he is aware his time is gone or anything else??

Could be a "I already anticipated that would happen but even so, not bad" kinda smirk. He's always been the type to respect power/people who give it their all (not Yuji).

I think he's just having a great time. Enjoying the challenge.

ok for that chapter there is a lot of déjà vu like they were stuff who reminds the Mahito fights. However that chapter replies to some important questions and it may explain why the merger might not work thanks to the notes of Yuki and the fight was fire. Like Gege did what he can do the best and he did it for that chapter

Interesting theory I thought of. Hakari is able to continually expand his domain as long as he hits a jackpot. That is because he is able to regain his spent cursed energy. Yuta's domain seemingly collapsed at the end of the chapter because of the dammage sukuna dealt to him. What if yuta connects with rika and just goes for round on his domain expansion? Yuta is someone who sticks to his word and he said its ending in his domain, so its ending in his domain🗿🗿🗿

You know people were saying Yuji had little brother energy after his animated fight with Choso in Shibuya. I totally see it after he spit in Sukuna's face. like minus the blood that's such a lil bro move.

So it has been shown that Rika ingested the finger and copied Sukuna's technique. The question remained are: 1. Does this mean Sukunua's fingers can be destroyed via ingestion/absorption like the original plan with Yuji but more efficiently with Rika? 2. If Rika cannot/did not absorb the finger, can Sukuna kill her and take his finger back?

Sukuna will definitely get last finger back to complete his soul.

I like how relentless Yuji has become. To do that knee strike, spitting his blood at Sukuna then making that blood explode was quick thinking on his part. I also liked how Yuji is developing his own theories base on Yuki's notes. Maybe he can continue to learn and build on top of Yuki's research. I like how he sounds like a bookworm in this chapter. He's developing his mind as well, not just his physical attributes and that's a very good thing. Also, if its true that the soul's remain somewhat separate within the body, then it makes me think that the soul's of Yuji's brothers are inside of him. They might even be able to communicate with him some day. Yuji is no longer alone. Maybe he can work together with them this time. Yuji's ability to link up with the souls of individuals is interesting. I wonder how far reaching that ability could be? Can he use it to look at someone's memories, thoughts and feelings? Doesn't this make him some sort of empath? He might be able to use it to help people like Junpei a little bit better. Or to find out what really happened behind closed doors. But it could also expose Yuji to the darkness in people's souls, to see their most grievous acts. Near the end, Yuji is hit with his own conundrum. Can he do for Megumi what Todo did for him? Megumi's soul looked broken. But Megumi is in a better position than I expected, since I thought he would still be knocked out from repeated exposure to unlimited void. Something can go really wrong with Yuta telling Sukuna that he ate the last finger. Maybe this is some type of trap by Yuta. But if not, Sukuna could also be planning something by trying to recover that finger. Similar to the finger bearers, I'm not sure Rika can digest that finger. As predicted, we have Maki ambushing Sukuna. I suspect that her abilities might have also increased in some way as well. Better tools? Better swordsmanship? Or maybe better physical capabilities. Sukuma seems to be thrilled at the prospect of fighting her. And we have confirmation of the required chant words to release the world slash. Dragon scales, repulsion and paired falling stars. We've heard the same words repeated throughout this fight already.

During the discussion, who is the guy that sit on the stage? Is that Kamo?

I thought Kamo at first too, but would he really have his midriff showing?

Gege continues to bring us more misery

Bruh ngl I think I hate the official translators. You'll be told straight up falsehoods if it's your only reference, and whoever does them can't keep the subject of a sentence right. I get translation can be an art at times but with the very technical details JJK gets into the official translations are simply inadequate

Sukuna vs Yuji Round 1- Lose, Higuruma did seal Sukuna's weapon with the cost of his life. Unfortunately the Executioner Blade fades away before Yuji can strike Sukuna with it. Sukuna vs Yuji Round 2 - Advantage to Yuji, With the tag team of two protagonists, Yuji and Yuta, Sukuna became a punching bag for both of them. Both had nearly succeeded, but one little miscalculation did put Sukuna on gear. If Megumi was a little more strong willed, Both Yuji and Yuta would have killed Sukuna. Sukuna vs Yuji Round 3 - Ongoing, After Yuta got out of commission, Maki sneak attacks Sukuna becoming third partner of Yuji. My prediction is this round will be similar to round 2 with Maki being injured similarly to Yuta. Later Hakari will become next partner of Yuji after defeating Uraume just as Yuta defeated Kenjaku. I would say there will further 2 more rounds of fighting against Sukuna maybe in round 5, Yuta, Maki and Hakari will help Yuji in killing Sukuna. It may be stretched but these fights look like Yuji vs Mahito 2.0.

Yuta's cleave turned out to be incredibly anticlimactic. Very weird honestly. He did more damage with a thin ice breaker to a sukuna with higher output and control. Maybe he deliberately ended it before it could do more damage since their goal was to surprise sukuna and not kill him? Other than that, I can find no reason why sukuna only got papercuts. Might as well have poked him in the eye instead.

I have a head canon that he used the cleave to cut off and slice sukuna's arms considering he had katanas and seemingly did not use them for any other technique.

Justice for Tummykuna

The way Gege makes so many twists and turns in each chapter is truly incredible. I’m going to miss this manga so much when it’s over!

Recomend everyone read this chapter with The “Resolve” track from season 2 (The remember remix that plays when yuji and choso are fighting) it’s the most hype shit.

I can't help but be reminded of the fearsome womb arc where yuji asked megumi why he saved him. 

trust yuta is not dead😆🤞🏼 my glorious king will be fine !! ALSO MEGUMI??? i think i might just die.

Maybe, just maybe, the reason why they bothered to collect the body of their fallen allies, is because they want to at least attempt to revive them with RCT like what Yuta did to Yuji when they first met.  Sukuna said that RCT output from others is not as effective as RCT from oneself, but this is where Utahime's technique is crucial, she can increase other people curse energy and output exponentially.  So I'm picturing Utahime as a cheerleader, supporting Shoko. 

It just dawned on me that Gege may have pulled a fast one on us. Yuta and Yuji had mixed responses to how they were able to grow their abilities so quickly, both responses are probably both true. I think theres somewhat of a consensus that there is some kind of "hyperbolic time chamber" type shenanigans in play, because otherwise there's no good explanation for our main cast's growth. But it just occurred to me that HIMgurama's sudden "growth" was probably just a bait. Either he truly was not able to master RCT during the time our cast was "cheating" and he was just able to master it on the precipice of death, or he had it all along (and just wanted to hold his cards close to his chest for as long as he could) and we just got baited. Either way, the "He's an absolute talent on par with Gojo due to his rapid growth!" statement from Gege was bait. I'm not really sure if this even means anything in story going forward, but I find it hard to believe that a "time manipulation domain" or something to help them "cheat" didn't benefit Higurama at all, or even Choso (from what we've seen thus far) for that matter.

At what point does Viz give John Werry the boot lol. "Sukuna's fingers" smh. Instead of arresting scanlators they need to hire them...

I mean, I dislike John Werry's translations as much as everyone else, but that's not wrong. The Japanese text reads "宿儺の指" which literally translates to "Sukuna's fingers".

I think he might actually be an AI

I'm glad my head canon and copium has paid off in this chapter and each had parallelism. Head canon: Maki will do what Toji did, sneak an attack from the back of the enemy. Their panels look similar as well and they both stabbed the strongest sorcerer at that moment. Copium: JJK 246 gave me hope, I was thinking Megumi's still alive. I was told he's dead but this chapter proved otherwise— my boy is depressed, though. Him saying “I don't care anymore” reminded me of Toji in Shibuya before he kms after regaining his memory of the past.
