The most recent installments of Jujutsu Kaisen have brought about a major plot development that centers around Yuji Itadori. In Chapter 265, it is hinted that Yuji possesses a soul-based power that surpasses that of Cursed Techniques. This is evident in his battle against Ryomen Sukuna, where he is able to connect and harmonize with the souls of others.
This newly discovered power also accounts for the enigmatic “non-existent memories”and proves that Yuji is capable of confronting even the most formidable of curses. Through his physical manifestation of this power known as the Domain Expansion, Yuji has transcended being merely a vessel for Sukuna and has become a sorcerer in his own right.
Jujutsu Kaisen: The Soul-Based Ability of Yuji Itadori
In the recent updates of Jujutsu Kaisen, viewers have been intrigued by the possibility that Yuji Itadori’s enigmatic “non-existent memories”may not be connected to his Cursed Technique but rather demonstrate a special, inherent power similar to Gojo’s Six Eyes.
This power, alluded to in the previous chapters, implies that Yuji has the potential to connect with the souls of others and induce fabricated memories through a profound resonance. This idea is further explored in chapter 264, where Yuji’s Domain Expansion seems to be the initial demonstration of this ability being consciously utilized.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Understanding the Soul Resonance Phenomenon
The occurrence of “non-existent memories”has been documented in two significant individuals: Choso and Aoi Todo. In Choso’s case, the constructed memories played into his strong affection for his siblings, while for Todo, they aligned with his individual principles, specifically his preferences in women.
This resonance with Yuji’s soul appears to have caused these illusions, indicating that Yuji’s soul possesses a special ability to engage and communicate with others on a deeper level. Choso’s familial connection to Yuji and Todo’s yearning for a kindred spirit allowed their souls to synchronize with Yuji’s, resulting in these vivid, yet artificial, recollections.
Nevertheless, it is possible that this resonance is just one facet of Yuji’s soul-based skill. It is conceivable that as Yuji delves deeper into the study of souls, guided by the likes of Tsukumo, he may be able to harness this power to inflict direct harm, much like Mahito’s encounter with the “soul punch”or the Dismantle technique that severed Sukuna and Fushiguro’s souls. The latter move, a precise attack on the edge of their souls, suggests that Yuji’s control over this ability is steadily increasing.
Possible connection between the ability in Jujutsu Kaisen and Ryomen Sukuna
In addition, the series has hinted at the hereditary nature of the soul-interaction ability, as Sukuna also possesses a tendency to interact with souls, particularly when his enemies are near death. This connection implies that Yuji and Sukuna, who are essentially soul-related, both possess this innate ability, further solidifying the belief that this power is an inherent trait within Yuji’s family line.
This power rooted in the soul could potentially hold the answer to Mahito’s puzzling declaration, “You are me,”which was directed towards Yuji. The name “Yuji,”derived from the word “humanity,”may represent a stronger bond with Mahito and his ability to manipulate souls.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Yuji Itadori’s Power Unleashed
Regarding Gojo’s well-known Unlimited Void, it is plausible that it is a manifestation of his Six Eyes power rather than the Limitless Technique. Similarly, Yuji’s Domain Expansion could potentially be attributed to his soul interaction ability rather than his acquired Cursed Technique.
The domain elicits the same soul resonance as the phenomenon known as “non-existent memories,”indicating that Yuji has started to gain control over this power and is utilizing it to craft a personalized Domain Expansion.
This theory also explains why Sukuna does not activate “non-existent memories”despite his close connection to Yuji. It appears that this ability only takes effect when there are distinct physical bodies, and by the time Sukuna met this requirement, Yuji had already gained mastery over it and was using it deliberately in his Domain Expansion.
Final Thoughts
Yuji Itadori’s recent demonstration of his Domain Expansion showcases his ever-evolving ability to interact with souls, marking a significant turning point in the story of Jujutsu Kaisen. In contrast to Gojo’s strength, Yuji’s power is a distinctive manifestation of the human essence, introducing a thought-provoking narrative shift that challenges the conventional ideas of strength and purpose within the series.
- Sukuna got caught by Yuji’s Domain for a good reason, and Jujutsu Kaisen has always showed why
- Yuji’s monologue in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 265 was for Megumi, not Sukuna, and it makes perfect sense
- Jujutsu Kaisen fans should be rooting against Hakari’s return, as it could ruin Yuji’s Domain Expansion plan
