We finally catch a glimpse of Sukuna in the Jujutsu Kaisen finale, where he reunites with his most loyal ally, Uraume.
After much anticipation, the Jujutsu Kaisen ending is here. However, many fans are left unsatisfied, as several characters and plotlines remain unresolved in the concluding chapter.
Readers seem to agree that the standout moment of the finale is Sukuna’s appearance. In Chapter 271, the King of Curses finds himself in a void facing Mahito. The Disaster Curse explains that Mahito’s ability to affect souls plays a crucial role in their interaction.
During their discussion, Sukuna’s true motives emerge, raising more questions than answers. We witness Sukuna contemplating his life choices, indicated by an image of him with his back turned to two figures: an unidentified woman and a child with white hair. Ultimately, it is revealed that he chooses Uraume.

As he comforts a distressed Uraume, the King of Curses reflects on how he might choose a different path if given the chance. Yet, he seems entirely content walking away from Mahito with Uraume by his side.
This moment profoundly impacted readers, offering deeper insight into Sukuna’s character and revealing a softer side to the antagonist.
One reader posted on X: “Finding out that Sukuna and Uraume’s relationship resembles that of a father and child made my week.”
“Uraume crying and Sukuna comforting them while placing a hand on their shoulder as they walk together is truly moving,” wrote another reader.
“I’ve always viewed the relationship between Sukuna and Uraume as that of a master and apprentice, as Uraume’s loyalty conveys more than mere reverence,” shared a third reader. “Seeing them look childlike while Sukuna acts as a ‘guardian’ suggests he may have saved them during their most vulnerable moments.”
In addition to Sukuna’s return, the Jujutsu Kaisen finale also features Gojo for one last time.
