The recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen’s second season showed Sukuna’s much-anticipated battle with Jogo. The animation was utterly mind-blowing, and fans have been singing praises of studio MAPPA’s excellent work. One of the highlights of that episode was Sukuna’s Fire Arrow, which has made the fans go crazy over it.
Keeping in mind how cursed techniques work in Jujutsu Kaisen, several fans have been wondering about the nature of his fire arrow. It’s never been fully explained what Sukuna’s Cursed Techniques are or the full range of his abilities. We can only speculate that this move is an extension of his original cursed technique.
What is Sukuna’s Fire Arrow in Jujutsu Kaisen?
People with cursed energy and cursed spirits are born with an innate ability or cursed technique. These abilities can’t be learned with time, which explains why Itadori is such an enigmatic character in Jujutsu Kaisen. Since Yuji isn’t born with an innate technique, he only relies on cursed energy manipulation, such as Divergent Fist and Black Flash.
People with innate cursed techniques can use a plethora of abilities that can be considered an extension of their primary technique. Nanami’s innate Ratio Technique allows him to use an ability called Collapse.
Sukuna’s Fire Arrow can be explained similarly. The series has never explained what Sukuna’s true cursed technique is. So, we can simply assume that the Fire Arrow we saw him using was an extension of his actual cursed technique. All these deadly abilities, such as Cleave, Dismantle, Spiderweb, and Fire Arrow, will be nothing more than an extension of that.
Sukuna’s arsenal of abilities in Jujutsu Kaisen hasn’t been revealed yet
There hasn’t been much revelation regarding Sukuna’s full range of abilities in the manga. Even his Cursed Technique hasn’t been revealed yet. This has put fans in quite a curious state. It is quite necessary to know how far his abilities can go and how many abilities he has.
The Fire Arrow shown in the recent episode of Jujutsu Kaisen seems to be the direct result of Sukuna’s particular virtues or abilities. However, it has yet to be explained fully in the series. In the series, he has been told he has tremendous amounts of cured energy. With that being said, there’s little evidence of what his Cursed Technique is or why he can do the things he does.
Characters like Yuta Okkotsu and Satoru Gojo have already been shown to have been born with tremendous innate power. However, as for Ryomen Sukuna, little is known about his background. Therefore, the full extent of his abilities and his origins still need to be discovered. This could be a crucial factor in the series.
