Jujutsu Kaisen fans discuss Yuji’s new technique in Chapter 264

The spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264 reveal that Yuji is capable of using the pinnacle of Jujutsu sorcery. However, since the manga has not yet revealed this, fans have developed their own theories to explain this power.

The Jujutsu Kaisen manga is approaching its conclusion, with Sukuna’s defeat imminent. The ongoing fight against the powerful foe has been lengthy, but the sorcerers’ determination has finally led to success as the antagonist nears his breaking point. Disclaimer: This article includes spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 264.

According to leaked information, Yuji successfully executes a Domain Expansion for the first time. This technique is widely regarded as the strongest in the story, considered the ultimate form of Jujutsu sorcery, and can only be performed by a select few characters.

Despite this, the chapter does not disclose any information about his Domain Expansion aside from the hand sign. Once Yuji performs it, the scene abruptly shifts to a subway station where he greets Sukuna and invites him to join him.

A multitude of fans have developed their own interpretation of Yuji’s character and the technique of his new Domain Expansion, as it remains undisclosed in the manga.

One supporter posted, “The hand gesture used by Yuji is the same as that of Ksitigarbha, a boddhisatva who leads others to enlightenment before achieving it himself. This is a fitting mudra for Yuji, as Ksitigarbha chose not to become a Buddha until all hells were cleansed. He is the protector of spirits.”

Another person commented that it appeared as though Yuji was performing the Kṣitigarbha/Jizō Mudra, which is a Buddha known for guiding souls who were unable to attain redemption during their lifetime, according to a tweet.

Moreover, a third fan pointed out in their comment on the post that kshitigarbha can also be translated as “womb of the earth.”This further highlights how Yuji is still a vessel, but now instead of being possessed by a demon, he carries the will and aspirations of others. This signifies Yuji’s true role and his growth as a character.
