Recap of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 257

The 257th chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen opened with a short flashback to Uraume and Sukuna conversing about Yuji. Uraume mentioned that they had both sensed a similar presence in Yuji as they do in Sukuna. This led Sukuna to theorize that Jin Itadori was the reincarnation of his twin’s soul and that he had later merged with Kenjaku. Sukuna also speculated that one of his fingers was sealed within Yuji, despite him being a participant in the Culling Game.

Sukuna theorized that the purpose of this training was to enhance Yuji’s strength as a vessel, while Uraume questioned whether Yuji had the same potential as Sukuna. As the chapter shifted back to the present, Yuji successfully landed four consecutive Black Flashes on Sukuna. It was later revealed that Yuji possessed the ability to use both Blood Manipulation and Sukuna’s Cursed Technique, Malevolent Shrine, which included techniques such as Cleave and Dismantle as seen in the previous issue.

As Sukuna watched Yuji’s weaker abilities, a memory of Ino seeking permission from Gojo and his team to use Nanami’s sword replayed in his mind. In the current situation, Ino utilized his Cursed Technique and Nanami’s sword to divert Sukuna’s attention. This gave Yuji the opportunity to successfully land four more Black Flashes on Sukuna, causing him to become enraged at how effortlessly Yuji was able to execute them. The scene concluded with Sukuna becoming increasingly agitated as Yuji’s 8th Black Flash connected with him.

Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 258: Anticipated Events and Predictions

In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 258, Sukuna’s agitation and concern towards Yuji’s awakening will likely be explained. This chapter will also likely shed light on Sukuna’s current state. Additionally, fans can anticipate some discussion about Megumi Fushiguro, possibly inspired by Yuji’s exceptional determination to save him from Sukuna.

Another flashback could potentially kick off Chapter 258, possibly delving into the past of Kenjaku and Jin Itadori. While this flashback could uncover a myriad of information, it would be reasonable to assume, based on the revelations in chapter 258, that Jin was aware of Kenjaku’s identity and still chose to cooperate with their plan.
