Jujutsu Kaisen has taken a surprise turn with the latest chapter. The situation was entirely under Ryomen Sukuna’s control, but with simultaneous character introduction, the Jujutsu society has got the upper hand over the King of Curses. Higuruma slowed down Sukuna, and after that, Yuji Itadori and Yuta Okkotsu teamed up. It went on with Miguel, Maki, Choso, etc.

Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 259 will have several important moments, but the most crucial is the return of a fan-favorite character, who was last seen almost a hundred chapters ago. His return helped Itador get back up and take on a weakened Sukuna. Itadori also had a power boost and hit him with eight consecutive Black Flash.

Jujutsu Kaisen 259 will feature Yuji Itadori forcing Sukuna to do a partial Domain Expansion in his weakened state. The former broke Satoru Gojo’s record and hit the antagonist with eight consecutive Black Flash. He partnered up with Choso and Noritoshi Kamo. Since both used Blood Manipulation techniques, Yuji asked Choso to teach him the Cursed Technique. But Choso refused, and Kamo taught him the technique.

Sukuna, trying to end everything in a single hit, tried to hit the inferno move, Kamino inside his Domain Expansion. Choso sacrificed himself and put up a blood wall before Yuji to protect him. While Choso died in Yuji’s arms, the former finally got to hear ‘brother’ from the latter. When the protagonist was about to suffer a crushing defeat at the King of Curses’ hands, Aoi Todo came to his aid.

With his Boogie Woogie and Mei Mei’s crow, they entered Sukuna Domain. Todo did not know whether they would be successful but encouraged Yuji to stand on his feet. It is a déjà vu from the Shibuya Incident arc when Todo comes and encourages Yuji by saying, “We are the exception.” Aoi Todo’s presence has always helped Yuji, and it was no different this time. With a hardened resolve he faced Sukuna in the hopes to see a bright dawn after a dark knight.

Jujutsu Kaisen Is Reaching Its Climax

As mentioned by Gege Akutami, Jujutsu Kaisen will end before 2025. The mangaka is proceeding towards the conclusion in the same. It has been several chapters since Ryomen Sukuna regained his original form and has been wreaking havoc throughout the Jujutsu society. Yuji Itadori, the protagonist, has a massive burden on his shoulders to end the misery once and for all. Even though he was a normal kid, his progress has been massive, especially in the last few chapters.

Jujutsu Kaisen will soon reach its climax, with both parties weakened. It might not be for long that the fans would get to enjoy the top-notch fight sequences and the fast-paced storyline. For the moment, the fans are excited about the return of Aoi Todo. They would once again get to experience the ‘best friend’ partnership since their fight against Mahito. With Sukuna weakened, the duo might be the trump card for Jujutsu society’s victory.

Jujutsu Kaisen is available on Viz Media.
