Jujutsu Kaisen is at the peak of its story, with the Shibuya Incident arc taking its grasp on the plot. The Jujutsu world will be shaken with the ongoing arc. The greatest powers will all enter the battlefield and try to force their ideals on others. Jujutsu Kaisen’s popularity was already at its peak, with the manga causing some serious twists, and with season 2, it’s going to break its limit.
One of the main highlights and an epitome of raw strength is Ryomen Sukuna, who is currently being subdued by Yuji Itadori. Yuji was a normal human but developed Cursed Energy after consuming Sukuna’s fingers. The manga showcased Ryomen Sukunu regaining his power and defeating Satoru Gojo. The fans have started to point their fingers at Yuji Itadori for Sukuna running a rampage.
How Did Ryomen Sukuna Get Back His Powers?
After Sukuna broke free of Yuji Itadori and took over Megumi Fushiguro’s body, all hell broke loose. While this was a major development in Gege Akutami’s magnum opus, the fans have started to blame Yuji for Ryomen Sukuna regaining his powers. It was the conditions for the Binding Vow set by Yuji, which helped Sukuna take advantage and take over Megumi’s body.
Sukuna’s incarnation wasn’t just a fault of Yuji but also Megumi. Neither of them cared about being killed or hurt.

Just as how Yuji’s selflessness was the key for Sukuna to exploit, so was Megumi’s selflessness pic.twitter.com/j0kuavQXN3
The conditions for the Binding Vow were that if Yuji required healing, Sukuna would heal him in exchange for taking over his body for one minute whenever he said the keyword, ‘Enchain’. Yuji also added that while Sukuna would be in control, he would not hurt or kill any of his friends. Yuji tried to fight it off with Sukuna but was instantly defeated and forced to agree to the vow. But Sukuna being the King of Curses, waited for the right moment to use loophole in this Bindind Vow and use it in his favor.
When Yuji and Megumi met Yorozu, Sukuna immediately chanted ‘Enchain’ and took control of Yuji’s body. He rips one of Yuji’s fingers and converts it into a Cursed object and force feeds it to Megumi Fushiguro and transfers his consciousness into Megumi. He immediately took over him. Ryomen Sukuna always had a liking for Megumi, and now, with his body, he could inherit the Ten Shadows technique.
Jujutsu Kaisen Fans Think Yuji Should Be Thank For Sukuna’s Return
Fans were shocked to see Ryomen Sukuna come back, and that too by taking over a fan-favorite character. What the fans feared the most, Jujutsu Kaisen turned it into a reality. But the fans think that it was all Yuji’s fault. Yuji Itadori has always been the most selfless guy in Jujutsu Kaisen. Due to this nature, in the Binding Vow, he prohibited Sukuna from hurting his friends but forgot to add himself.

Even though I personally believe Sukuna was a lot stronger then pre-time skip Yuta
I’m fairly confident Yuta could stall a Sukuna who can’t even attack for one minute easily, if not just kill him which he wouldn’t even need to do pic.twitter.com/nO6EvzCCOr
Sukuna ripping off his finger was legit in terms of the Binding Vow since he could hurt Yuji. As a result, Sukuna gets back his body, Megumi is on the verge of death, Gojo is dead, Kashimo Hajime is dead, and the rampage continues. Yuji also understood what a mishap he made, and so he along with Higuruma, is currently fighting Sukuna.
Jujutsu Kaisen manga is available on Viz Media and Manga Plus, and it can be streamed on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
