Gege Akutami’s Jujutsu Kaisen has seen a lot of deaths since the fight against Sukuna started. Many sorcerers including some of the strongest ones like Gojo Satoru have been defeated and killed by the King of Curses. Now, the battle is on the verge of its conclusion as the sorcerers don’t have many options left.
The battle against the King of Curses has been stretched for too long and nothing positive has come out of it for the sorcerers. Characters like Yuta Okkotsu and Maki Zenin who were supposed to be the ones to make a major impact in the battle have been defeated too early. Now the next best option for the sorcerers is Kinji Hakari.
However, he is currently occupied as he is fighting Uraume and she too is a tough opponent. Nevertheless, some theories state that Hakari is going to fight next against Sukuna and this battle might be his last as Sukuna might kill Kinji Hakari, even though he is a strong opponent.
Kinji Hakari Might Fight Against Sukuna
Kinji Hakari runs the Gachinko Fight Club, which hosts hand-to-hand combat between sorcerers for money. Hakari is widely acknowledged as one of Tokyo Jujutsu High’s most powerful students. Gojo Satoru, the world’s most powerful sorcerer, thinks that Hakari and Yuta Okkotsu will eventually be able to match his strength, which in itself is a huge achievement.
Right now, he is fighting Uraume and he is the main focus of this battle. Although it is quite tough to pick a winner in this battle between Hakari and Uraume, it appears that Hakari has the upper hand based on a comparison of their respective skill sets. Therefore if he manages to beat Uraume, he might get involved in the battle against the King of Curses.
Kinji Hakari’s fight against Sukuna will surely be one of the best fights in Jujutsu Kaisen as it will show the battle between two of the strongest characters in the series. But looking at past results, Sukuna might have the upper hand in their battle which can lead to Kinji Hakari’s defeat and ultimately his death.
Predicting the Next Big Death in Jujutsu Kaisen
Shonen Jump recently shared a YouTube video celebrating Yuji’s birthday. However, a lot of focus in the video is put on Hakari. This has sparked conjecture that Kinji Hakari may be the next Jujutsu Kaisen character to die. Although Kinji Hakari’s presence in the video could mean something else, recent events and results point it toward his death.
Kinji Hakari has been out of the central plot for a long time. But as his battle with Uraume might end soon, he is likely to join the main battle. His presence in the YouTube video featuring Yuji serves as an indication of his death, and Hakari, being an important character, is bound to die at the hands of Sukuna.
Although this is the most logical conclusion for Kinji Hakari’s character, nothing can be said of Gege Akutami as they have a habit of bringing an unexpected twist in the most crucial moments of the story.
