Summary of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 256
In chapter 256 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Satoru Gojo begins with a short flashback in which he explains the reason why he is unable to use Black Flash. According to him, it is due to his unique fighting style, the Six Eyes, the short duration of his fights, and the influence of the surrounding environment. As the story returns to the present, Yuji, Miguel, Maki, and Choso all share concerns about Sukuna’s potential regained power. Despite this, they continue to engage in battle, with Yuji briefly managing to trap Sukuna against a wall before he ultimately breaks free.
Sukuna successfully lands another Black Flash on Maki, who has already been hit once before, and she notices that his Cursed Energy level is continuing to rise. Choso then launches an attack on Sukuna, but it is swiftly countered by Sukuna’s fourth Black Flash. Despite this, Choso employs blood armor to lessen the impact and give Yuji an opening to strike Sukuna. As this is happening, Miguel attempts to persuade Larue to leave, but Larue insists that there is still unfinished business to attend to.
Yuji executed Piercing Blood on Sukuna, successfully striking him before stepping back to create some space. He readied himself for a subsequent attack as the narrator noted that Sukuna was aware of Yuji’s incoming Black Flash. Larue then utilized his Cursed Technique to manipulate the bodies and minds of those he seized, revealing his additional abilities. As the chapter concluded, Yuji delivered a powerful Black Flash to Sukuna, and the narrator hinted that Yuji had unlocked his true potential after this final Black Flash.
Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 257: Predictions and Theories
As Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 257 approaches, fans are eagerly anticipating Yuji’s upcoming “awakening,”which has been teased in previous chapters. Many are anticipating the reveal of a new Cursed Technique or even a Domain Expansion. Additionally, there is much speculation that Yuji’s “awakening”will grant him the ability to execute Black Flashes at will, especially given Sukuna’s previous confirmation that he sensed Yuji was about to successfully land one.
Unfortunately, chapter 257 is when the series’ author and illustrator, Gege Akutami, will most likely switch to focusing on the Uraume versus Hakari fight. This is the ideal moment for the shift, as it aligns with Gege’s usual approach to storytelling and also serves as a cliffhanger for the anticipated awakening of Yuji.
