Over the weekend, Shueisha dropped Chapter 252 of Jujutsu Kaisen, and fans were on the edge of their seats for this one. It’s all about the epic showdown with Ryomen Sukuna, and things are heating up big time.
After Sukuna’s unexpected return against Yuta Okkotsu and Yuji Itadori, readers were eager to see how it would all unfold.
Enter Maki Zen’in, swooping in to save the day and give our heroes a chance to catch their breath. But just when you think things might be looking up, there’s a twist.
The chapter takes a turn, hinting at Sukuna’s darker intentions and leaving us all hanging on for the next installment.
The Intense Battles and Strategic Maneuvers in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 252
Chapter 252 of Jujutsu Kaisen kicks off with a trip down memory lane, showing us what went down before Yuta’s barrier got busted. Atsuya Kusakabe and Takuma Ino are strategizing about how to handle the situation.
Kusakabe is all about covering every angle, making sure there are no surprises when Maki Zen’in swoops in after Yuta’s barrier falls.
Ino thinks they should send more folks into the Domain, but Kusakabe isn’t having it. He’s worried that if Maki’s ambush is sniffed out, it could spell disaster. Right on cue, Maki shows up, ready for action.
Then we’re back to the present, with Yuta breaking through his barrier. Kusakabe and crew were totally prepared for this, calling for Ui Ui.
Ui Ui pops up and whisks Yuta away to get patched up by Shoko Ieiri. Meanwhile, Maki stays behind to duke it out with Sukuna, who’s starting to catch on that Yuta busted the barrier on purpose.
In Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 252, we delve into the intricacies of the Split Soul Katana and its peculiar healing properties. Ordinarily, this weapon can’t be fixed up using Reverse Cursed Technique unless wielded by someone who can see souls.
Why? Well, you gotta know the shape of your own soul to mend it properly. Sukuna, having shared space with Yuji for so long, is just as familiar with his soul’s outline as Yuji himself.
But here’s the kicker: even with that knowledge, Sukuna’s still struggling to fully heal from his brawl with Satoru Gojo, thanks to some lingering effects.
Meanwhile, Yuji’s itching to jump back into the fray, but he’s hit with a sudden wave of sickness, coughing up blood left and right. Turns out, the beatings he’s taken have outpaced his healing abilities, leaving a nasty wound unattended.
Thankfully, Choso steps in, coaching Yuji to focus on his breath and envision his blood spreading through his body like roots, reaching every nook and cranny.
As for Maki and Sukuna, they’re still locked in combat, both wearing big grins as they go at it hammer and tongs, clearly relishing the thrill of the fight, despite being evenly matched.
