The revelation of Sukuna’s final finger causes chaos in Jujutsu Kaisen fandom

After a week-long hiatus, the much-awaited reveal of Sukuna’s final finger mystery finally arrived. On August 16, 2024, spoilers for chapter 266 of Jujutsu Kaisen were released and they did not disappoint. The long-awaited moment of Yuji Itadori unleashing his “Domain Expansion”and his failed attempt to appeal to Ryomen Sukuna’s humanity led to a thrilling exchange of punches between the two.

Additionally, Megumi Fushiguro regained his determination to battle and started to fight back against the Demon King. The spoilers concluded with a surprised Sukuna, as the next panel showed Sukuna’s final finger bound in a mysterious location, possibly hinting at its ultimate fate.

As expected, the fandom was thrown into disarray upon receiving this information. While the enigma surrounding Sukuna’s final finger appears to have been resolved, it also raises new questions about its current location and condition.

After the recent reveal, it was previously thought that the Queen of Curses, Rika, had consumed Sukuna’s final finger. This was the explanation for Yuta Okkotsu’s ability to use Sukuna’s slash, Cleave. However, according to the latest spoilers for chapter 266, it seems that the King of Curses’ last finger may still exist in another location.

As the spoilers had predicted, Yuji was dominating Sukuna, while Megumi also fought back from within. With his back against the wall, the Demon King sought to regain the upper hand and searched desperately for a solution. Following in Gojo’s footsteps, Sukuna successfully reset his Cursed Technique (CT). He dismantled Yuji’s gauntlets and was poised to activate his Domain, but he was taken aback by what he saw.

At first glance, it appeared that Yuji was lacking two fingers. However, as the panels shifted, it became clear that Sukuna’s supposed last finger was shown to be hanging by threads in an undisclosed location.

Jujutsu Kaisen Fans React to Jaw-Dropping Revelation

The resurfacing of what was assumed to be taken care of has shocked fans in the most horrifying way – Sukuna’s last finger. It was previously believed to be devoured by Rika, which allowed Yuta to utilize Sukuna’s abilities. However, this revelation has caused chaos among Akutami fans, leaving them unsure of what to make of it.

“So he was at 19 finger power the entire time,”a fan commented.

The fandom has been inundated with theories and possibilities. Previously, it was believed that Sukuna was fighting at full power until it was revealed that Rika had consumed one of his fingers. However, this new information may discredit that belief and suggest that Sukuna is actually 19 years old and fighting at his true strength.

“Bro nobara gonna use straw doll technique,”a netizen exclaimed.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding Nobara Kugisaki’s whereabouts, devoted fans of Jujutsu Kaisen are eagerly anticipating her return. The recent reveal of her severed finger being bound by mysterious threads has sparked speculation that Nobara’s moment to showcase her powerful Cursed Technique has finally arrived. As her ability allows her to harm the owner of a severed body part, fans are hopeful for her triumphant comeback.

“I think Yuji gonna seal sukuna inside the finger,”an X user wrote.

A fan expressed their belief that this could potentially be Team Jujutsu High’s ultimate secret weapon. Despite all that has been revealed, Sukuna has proven to be unmatched. Since it is nearly impossible for anyone to match his strength, the only viable option is to seal him away, as has been done before, by placing his final finger inside a seal.

“What does it mean that Yuji is missing 2 fingers?,”a Jujutsu Kaisen fan writes.

Despite the unclear nature of recent events, fans are noticeably perplexed by Yuji’s missing fingers. Sukuna used Dismantle to shatter his battle gauntlets, exposing his hand with only three fingers instead of five. This unanswered mystery may potentially be resolved in the next few chapters.

“Could it be? What yuta ate was not sukuna’s last finger but yuji’s. And sukuna’s last finger is hiding somewhere,”a netizen wondered.

Ultimately, there is growing speculation that the object Rika ingested to grant Yuta the ability to use Dismantle was not Sukuna’s final finger, but rather Yuji’s finger. This notion holds potential merit, as Yuji has demonstrated the ability to utilize the techniques of the Demon King.

Based on this reasoning, it can be concluded that Yuta imitated Yuji’s technique rather than Sukuna’s. However, it is important to note that this is only a speculation at this early point.
