Yuji’s Bold Move Against Sukuna in Latest Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter

The anticipated release of Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 263, scheduled for Monday, July 15, 2024, was met with early spoilers being leaked online. These spoilers revealed that the chapter will feature Yuji and Todo joining the fight, following the previous chapter which focused on Yuta Okkotsu’s battle against Ryomen Sukuna.

Despite Aoi Todo fulfilling his expected role of using his Vibraslap in Boogie Woogie, Yuji Itadori surpassed himself. Ryomen Sukuna likely had hopes of defeating Yuji, Yuta, and Todo single-handedly. However, it was at this moment that Yuji turned the tables on Sukuna, causing him to retreat and preserve his body.

Therefore, what steps did Yuji take to turn his situation around and defeat Sukuna?

Please be advised that this article contains spoilers for those who have not read the Jujutsu Kaisen manga.

From the beginning of the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, it was clear that Ryomen Sukuna viewed his previous host Yuji Itadori as dull and not even remotely capable of posing a threat to him.

Despite the story progressing, Yuji continued to impress with his newly acquired moves from the one-month training period. It was surprising to see just how much he had improved since his appearance at the Culling Game. However, even with his increased strength, Sukuna still remained a formidable threat.

During that moment, Yuji presented his latest technique, the Soul-Shattering Punches. These powerful attacks were able to strike the barrier dividing Sukuna and Megumi’s souls with precision. With this move, Yuji was able to weaken the connection between Sukuna and Megumi, and in a previous chapter, he was able to reach out to his friend. However, despite Yuji’s efforts, Megumi Fushiguro remained unable to stand up.

After that, the spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 263 revealed that Yuji was able to successfully land a perfect Dismantle on Sukuna at the barrier between their souls. However, this time, Sukuna’s condition was even more dire as he had to retreat from Yuji in order to maintain control over his body, unlike before.

To further illustrate his dire state, the Jujutsu Kaisen manga depicted Ryomen Sukuna regurgitating some of his fingers. However, he refused to give up and resolutely consumed them once more.

The fact that Sukuna initially did not view Yuji as a threat, but was now intimidated enough to retreat, clearly demonstrates that Yuji Itadori was able to turn the tables on Sukuna.

Despite being a powerful sorcerer, Satoru Gojo was unable to make Sukuna throw up, which left even Jujutsu Kaisen fans in awe. As a result, they saw him as a formidable beast.

“WHAT A CHAPTER!!! Yuji making Sukuna throw up his fingers, and being able to selectively choose the target of the technique?! He is a monster,”one fan said.

“I’ve actually never seen one person embarrass Sukuna so much. screaming crying throwing up’ – Sukuna. Yuji easily the GOAT of this manga,”another fan expressed.

Additionally, someone else noted that Yuji Itadori was the only individual capable of humiliating Sukuna to such a degree. It was quite an achievement to make the King of Curses scream, cry, and vomit, as no other Jujutsu Sorcerer had been able to do so. Therefore, considering the previous dynamic between Yuji and Sukuna, Yuji truly managed to completely reverse their roles.
