It appears that Jujutsu Kaisen has reached the highly anticipated peak that every fan has been waiting for. The battle against Ryomen Sukuna could be likened to a pendulum, shifting between the Demon King’s favor and that of the Jujutsu High sorcerers.
Despite the spoilers for chapter 256, it appears that the protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen has made a powerful appearance. Despite being defeated by Kusakabe, Miguel and Larue were unable to hold their own against Sukuna. However, their involvement bought enough time for Maki, Choso, and Yuji to return to the battle.
Yuji has not been the first two to enter “the zone,”but it still spells disaster for his opponent, the King of Curses.
Please note that this article is speculative in nature and contains spoilers for the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.
A New Chapter Begins: Jujutsu Kaisen’s MC Takes Center Stage
The recent spoilers for Chapter 256 suggest that there will be significant developments in the upcoming chapters. Initially hesitant, Miguel eventually chose to join the battle as a tribute to the late Suguru Geto. His and Larue’s participation proved to be pivotal as it allowed the other sorcerers from Jujutsu High to rest and rejoin the fight.
Consequently, Yuji utilizes Larue’s Cursed Technique, known as “Heart Catch,”to successfully unleash a powerful Black Flash attack on Sukuna. Not only does this technique physically subdue or combat the target, but it also has the ability to capture their soul, essentially their consciousness.
As he had previously linked with Sukuna, he could successfully subdue the Demon King’s consciousness, allowing Yuji to deliver a fatal blow. This has not only led to an awakening for Yuji but also put him on track to surpass Kento Nanami’s record of consecutive Black Flashes.
The significance of this cannot be overstated, as Yuji has been in dire need of a boost or power-up for quite some time. From the very start, he has faced numerous challenges and undergone significant growth. Through rigorous training and grueling battles, he has acquired valuable skills such as Blood Manipulation and Reverse Cursed Technique (RCT).
Now, appearing to be at the height of his abilities, he is poised to develop and actualize the potential that Gojo Satoru and others had recognized in him. As a result, the true protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen is prepared to finally step into the spotlight.
Selected by the Dispersed Black Embers
Yuji’s awakening was always expected to involve the Black Flash. This was evident in his swift entry into “the zone”during his battles against Hanami and Mahito. He displayed the ability to use the technique effortlessly.
“His possession of the Black Sparks can be attributed to his unwavering focus and determination in battle. It is important to note that the activation of the technique heavily relies on timing, making “the zone”a crucial factor.”
To successfully execute this technique, the sorcerer must infuse their attack with a minute amount of Cursed Energy (CE) in a split second upon impact. This can be likened to a critical hit in video games. Despite its apparent simplicity, it requires a high level of skill that not many possess. In order to utilize it, the user must be fully focused and in peak condition during battle.
Yuji’s frequent use of the technique can be attributed to his intense focus, determination, and heightened emotion during battles. These qualities allow him to enter “the zone”faster than others and greatly enhance his chances of manifesting the Black Sparks.
In the present, the battle has been raging for a considerable amount of time, causing Yuji to experience a surge of emotions. Furthermore, his determination to defeat Sukuna has reached an all-time high. As a result, he unleashed a powerful Black Flash at a critical moment, completely turning the tables in the battle.
Conclusion
Gege Akutami’s manga has reached its pinnacle with this chapter. Fans had been questioning why Yuji was not receiving power-ups while other characters had been for quite some time. However, the protagonist’s awakening was inevitable and came at the perfect moment.
After enduring 255 challenging chapters, the true protagonist of Jujutsu Kaisen is finally ready to take center stage and bring the conflict to an end. With most of the characters defeated and unable to fight, it is now the responsibility of the sorcerer with pink hair to showcase the results of his training and seek retribution for Sukuna’s offenses against the Jujutsu community.
