Recap of Previous Chapter: Jujutsu Kaisen
In the previous chapter, Takaba and Kenjaku had a show together on stage, but their banter turned somber when Takaba became saddened by the realization that the show was ending. Seizing this opportunity, Yuta managed to sneak up on Kenjaku and behead him. As Kenjaku lay dismembered, he made a promise that someone would carry on his will.
Spoilers and Raw Scans: Jujutsu Kaisen
Transitioning to the spoilers and raw scans for Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 244, titled “Inhuman Makyo Shinjuku Showdown, Part 16.” The chapter initiates with a shift in perspective from the Yuta vs. Kenjaku confrontation to the intense battle unfolding between Yuji and Sukuna. Despite the leaked spoilers being somewhat disordered, they will be presented here in a coherent and sequential manner.
Flashback and Battle Plans: Jujutsu Kaisen
In a flashback, it is disclosed that Kusakabe meticulously orchestrated their offensive strategy. He strategically assigned Yuta and Takaba to engage in combat against Kenjaku. Furthermore, Kusakabe foresaw the potential aftermath if Gojo and Kashimo succumbed to Sukuna’s might. In such a scenario, Miwa, who had sworn off using a katana after her previous encounter with Kenjaku in Shibuya, was deemed unsuitable for the mission. Noritoshi Kamo, recognizing his limited impact with his powers, opted to withdraw and relocate his family overseas. Yuji expressed appreciation for Kamo’s insights on Blood Manipulation, acknowledging their valuable assistance. Kusakabe provided reassurance, emphasizing that even in the worst-case scenario, sorcerers were likely to endure, and those disinclined to jeopardize their lives or lacking the Reversed Cursed Technique could choose to withdraw.
Higuruma’s Plan and Legal Challenges: Jujutsu Kaisen
Higuruma then proposed a strategy to harness Judgeman’s power for the execution of Sukuna, intending to seize his Cursed Technique using the Executioner’s Sword during their battle. However, Kusakabe pointed out the challenge of determining the specific crime for which Judgeman would try Sukuna. Higuruma enumerated various offenses committed by Sukuna, ranging from harming Yuji by taking control of his body to attempting the murder of Satoru Gojo, killing Yuji Itadori (with the caveat that this might be nullified since Yuji is alive), attempting to murder Megumi Fushiguro, killing two young sorcerers, attempting to murder numerous civilians, killing Haruta Shigemo, destroying numerous buildings, and taking over Megumi’s body. Despite the extensive list, prosecuting Sukuna for a crime technically committed by his finger proved to be legally intricate. According to the law, causing the death of one person results in 10-15 years in prison, while killing two leads to a life sentence, and killing three almost always results in the death penalty.
The Fate of Sukuna
In accordance with the Nagayama criteria, all of Sukuna’s offenses could theoretically be consolidated for a death penalty trial. However, Judgeman’s peculiarity lay in the fact that it would only select one crime at a time for the trial. Notably, as a contemporary Cursed technique, Judgeman possessed the ability to try Sukuna for crimes committed even during the Heian era, adding an intriguing temporal dimension to the legal proceedings.
The Battle Unfolds
Resuming the intense battle in Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 244, it is unveiled that Sukuna has obliterated Mei Mei’s crows. Higuruma successfully disrupts Sukuna’s stance and ensnares his weapon, Kamutoke. Capitalizing on this opening, Yuji hurls debris at Sukuna and delivers a forceful punch, sending the Curse staggering. Taking further advantage, Higuruma activates his Deadly Sentencing Domain, ensnaring Sukuna within its confines. Judgeman recommences the trial against Yuji, drawing from their prior encounter. However, Higuruma steps in to defend Yuji, contending that Sukuna is the true perpetrator of the crimes.
Sukuna’s Fate Hangs in the Balance
As per the spoilers, the unfolding events suggest that Sukuna’s destiny hinges on two pivotal details. Firstly, the question arises as to whether merely being Yuji’s accomplice in the Shibuya incident would be sufficient grounds for imposing the death penalty. Should this line of reasoning falter, the second crucial factor centers around whether Judgeman will opt to focus on one of Sukuna’s more egregious crimes during the trial. These uncertainties add an intriguing layer to the unfolding narrative, leaving Sukuna’s fate in suspense.
Upcoming Release
A notable point to mention is that there will be a hiatus next week, and the eagerly anticipated Jujutsu Kaisen chapter 245 is scheduled for release as planned in Weekly Shonen Jump issue 3.
Chapter 244 of Jujutsu Kaisen teases a high-stakes clash between Yuji and Higuruma against Sukuna. As the destiny of Sukuna remains uncertain, fans are eagerly anticipating the official release to witness the unfolding battle and the potential ramifications for the series. Stay tuned for further updates and developments in this captivating storyline.
