Jujutsu Kaisen now consists of over 200 chapters, and it’s not long since the series creator said that Yuji isn’t far from his final act. The boy has been through a lot since Gege Akutami started the manga, and all his comrades can say the same. Guys like Megumi have been put through the wringer and now a huge cliffhanger has just put a groundbreaking spin on the wizard.
So you have been warned! If you haven’t read Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 212, there are major spoilers below. Read on carefully.
For those who noticed the new update, Jujutsu Kaisen surprised everyone with a huge reveal this week. Chapter 212 has now changed the series as we know it, and we owe it to Sukuna. After all, he managed to force his spirt into Megumi, so the latter is now possessed by Sukuna in the same way Yuji was.
Of course, this move is a mess from top to bottom. Megumi doesn’t have the natural resistance to Sukuna that Yuji has, and it shows. Sukuna has taken control of the wizard’s body and fans don’t feel like Megumi will be able to regain control easily. Yuji has also lost his built-in lifeline now that Sukuna has left his body, so there’s no telling how our hero will make it from now on.
Now that Sukuna has switched bodies, the curse has a stronger body than ever, so the list of people who could defeat the demon lord got smaller. Despite his past with Megumi, Gojo is best suited for the job, but others like Yuta and Toji could win under the right circumstances. But for now, fans don’t see a way for Megumi to escape death unless Gojo has something up his sleeve.
