The newest arc of the Jujutsu Kaisen manga began with chapter 200, Direct Talks, Part 1, and it was jam-packed with surprising disclosures. There was already tension due to Angel’s requirements and Sukuna’s announcement, but the addition of more participants to the Culling Game may make the ritual into a real massacre. Fans will just have to wait & see how the plot develops, especially since mangaka Gege Akutami has a history of surprising his audience.

The Shonen Jump+ mobile app, which has the whole series and needs a membership to read, will also have Chapter 201.
Predictions for Chapter 201 of Jujutsu Kaisen
Chapter 201 of Jujutsu Kaisen will likely follow suit with the previous chapter, with Hakari, Yuta, and Maki learning about the inflow of new participants in the Culling Game. In the Tokyo No. 2 Colony, Reggie had a talk with Megumi that demonstrated the reincarnated sorcerers did not understand the game’s actual objective. As a result, the modern-day players should expect Hajime Kashimo, Daidou Hagane, and Miyo Rokujushi to form an alliance to counter the newcomers. Potentially returning characters include Hiromi Higuruma and Ryu Ishigori.
Chapter 201 of Jujutsu Kaisen might also detail the other countries with whom Kenjaku has been in negotiations and the new players joining Japan’s colonial holdings. These participants are being officially added to the Culling Game’s player roster, therefore the game’s regulations must be followed by them. This will complicate the retrieval of Tsumiki and have an effect on the regulations they had planned to impose.
An overview of Chapter 200
Jujutsu Kaisen’s 200th chapter opened with Yuji’s horror as Sukuna revealed that he is “the disgraced” player they must defeat to rescue Gojo from the Prison Realm. Megumi spotted Yuji acting suspiciously, and Yuji used the chance to try to tell Hana Kurusu about his discovery in a way that wouldn’t draw her attention. Megumi worried that Sukuna, and by extension Yuji, was the Angel’s intended victim. Yuji’s decision to commit suicide had the double effect of resurrecting Gojo and wiping off a big chunk of Sukuna, therefore he was bang on the money. Since Angel’s Cursed Technique in Chapter 200 had the potential to permanently exorcise Sukuna, the King of Curses intervened to prevent his vessel from revealing his true nature to Hana.
Chapter 200 of Jujutsu Kaisen then shifts to Kenjaku and Uraume teaching the White House staff the fundamentals of cursed energy and jujutsu and demonstrating the power of sorcerers. They were successful in persuading the government that the cursed energy was a viable clean energy source worthy of research and development. Afterwards, Kenjaku informed the President that nearly every great sorcerer in Japan will converge on Tokyo for the Culling Game ceremony, asking the President to utilise his position to capture sorcerers as research subjects to investigate cursed energy.
