Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 249 spoilers have finally revealed Yuji Itadori’s “soul” technique – and it seems as complex as it is life-saving.
The system of Jujutsu Kaisen powers has always been complicated, and rightly so: each character has their own spells, and while some are passed down within clans, you generally have to adapt to each person’s personality – not to mention the oaths that can modify its use.
But among all these exorcists and masters of scourges, the hero is an exception: arriving in this world after being parasitized by Sukuna, Yuji finally had to prove that he was capable of using occult energy through him. -even. Difficult when you don’t have a specific technique! Though…
Even before the long-awaited fight between Gojo and Sukuna started in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 222, a scene between Yuji and Kusakabe had already caused confusion among readers. First taken for a translation error, the sequence was finally confirmed again: we see the two characters having exchanged their bodies.
This led fans to create theories in which Yuji possessed a technique allowing him to “switch” the souls of characters, in one way or another. And indeed, chapter 249 seems to support the theory, but the technique is actually more complex than that.

What is Yuji’s “soul” technique in Jujutsu Kaisen?
Although chapter 249 of Jujutsu Kaisen does not reveal the official name of Yuji’s technique, we know that the exorcists are now relying on him to defeat Sukuna. Yuta, after removing Kenjaku, arrives in no man’s land. Not to defeat the king of plagues, but to weaken him and offer an opportunity to the young hero.
This is also where Yuta reveals the entire extent of his territory: we see a multitude of sabers and swords, probably representations of all the techniques copied so far, and which he can use at any time. infinite in its territory. Unfortunately, the S-class exorcist is aware that he will not be able to maintain his barriers for too long against Sukuna. He must therefore act quickly to destabilize him and help Yuji – who can move freely in the territory – to strike at the right time.
According to their plan, Yuji must therefore force Sukuna’s soul to leave Megumi’s body, thus freeing their comrade. We know that in chapter 220, Yuji claimed to have some ideas to defeat Sukuna while saving Megumi. Hiromi’s tactic having failed, it is now time for the young man to use his fists.
