Complete Summary of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 212
Chapter 212 of Jujutsu Kaisen, “Fester 2,” also known as “Rippen 2,” opens with a flashback of the Fushihgoro siblings before the culling game. There’s a remark at the beginning of the chapter that asks, “Who is she really?” and reads, “Tsumiki adds a Rule in the Culling Game.” And Why Does She Want to Do It? In the flashback, Tusmiki inquires Megumi about the length of time since her coma, adding that it does not seem like that much time has passed for her. Tsumiki’s inability to walk is explained by Megumi’s year-and-a-half-long coma. Tsumimki expresses concern that Gojo is confined, but Megumi reassures her that there is nothing to worry about and that she should get plenty of rest until the Culling Game is over.
Following this, Yuji has a monologue carrying on the theme of the previous chapter. Yuji expresses his joy in a monologue that explains how quickly they are approaching the day when they will be able to save Tsumiki and make Fushigoro proud. Yuji will let Angel murder him when Tsumiki is freed, and Gojo will be released from the prison world thanks to Sukuna, exactly as Angel had promised. Yuji questions whether this is how things should have always been and whether he should have disappeared the first time he saved Fushiguro. At the conclusion of his monologue, Yuji expresses gratitude to Megumi and Gojo for casting him in the part.
Who Really Is Tsumiki?
Chapter 212 of the Jujutsu Kaisen picks up where the last issue left off, with Tusmiki instituting a new rule into the game of culling. She claims to have enough points to add a new rule to Tsumiki and orders Kogane to implement a change that would make it so players may freely move between the colonies. What Tusmiki just said has everyone in shock, and Kogane has just added rule number 12 by saying that they shouldn’t get to choose where they plan to fight. Megumi, confused, asks Tsumiki, “Who are you?” Tsumiki, with a knowing grin, says, “They are his sister.”
Megumi then begins to recall his thoughts and realises that incarnated sorcerers like Sukuna and Choso are able to read the thoughts and memories of their vessel, allowing them to live comfortably in the modern period. Megumi feels confused because she believes Tsumiki to be an awakened player rather than a vessel. Tsumiki, although everyone else is still confused, finally discloses their actual identity, calling themselves “Yorozu” and claiming that the elderly person still remembers them (presumably Sukuna).
Yorozu tells Megumis and the company that they informed them of the culling and gave them 100 bonus points for nothing.
While Yorozu grows wings and flies away, Yorozu explains that they will soon be picking the location and adversary for the first war they have had in a thousand years. Shackles of Sukuna Yorozu takes off on his vow and promises Yuji, Sukuna, and Megumi that they would be waiting for them. Angel runs after Yorozu while Yuji, Angel, and Hana follow close behind; however, as they depart, Sukuna’s lips appear on Yuji’s cheek and say, “Enchain.”
The scene then flashes back to when Sukuna first explained to Yuji the Binding vow, which would allow Sukuna to temporarily possess Yuji’s body so long as Yuji didn’t retaliate by hurting or killing anybody.
Yuji would eventually forget his promise. Upon seizing control of Yuji, Sukuna promptly knocks the Angel unconscious and reveals the Binding pledge to Megumi. He goes on to add that whatever happens next is a gamble, at which point Megumi still can’t get her head around Tsumiki serving as a vessel and Sukuna suddenly materialising out of nowhere, and Sukuna focusing his cursed energies on his pinky finger and ripping it from the hand.
Sukuna, relieved that he is not losing control of his body, laughs like the devil that he is. He goes on to call Yuji an idiot since the binding promise never stipulated that Sukuna couldn’t harm either him or Yuji.
Now that Sukana has a plan for Megumi, she can begin implementing it.
Megumi instantly begins employing his ten summon skills that allow him to bring the giant Mahogora after witnessing Sukuna in control and knowing about the pledge. Megumi begins doing his signals, but Sukana quickly interrupts him. Sukuna then clamps his palm over Megumi’s lips, pressing down on the cursed energy-filled finger he tore from his hand.
The chapter ends with a note stating that Sukuna has incarnated in Fushiguro’s body, and Yuji awakens to find Megumi possessed by Sukuna and functioning as a new vessel, informing Yuji that he promised him that they will be able to see something fascinating to look at. Since the conclusion of Chapter 212 of Jujutsu Kaisen did not indicate that the series would be on a hiatus, readers should expect Chapter 213 to be published in the 11th issue of Weekly Shonen Jump. When Chapter 212 of Jujutsu Kaisen appears in the next edition of Weekly Shonen Jump on February 6, 2023 (at midnight, JST), will be a different story.
Predictions and Potential Spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 213
We shall find out what Gege sensei has in store for our main characters Yuji, Megumi, and Sukuna in Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 213. Many questions concerning this event have come up that I haven’t been able to answer. The reason Yuji was able to survive Sukuna’s curse and even control him was that his body was far stronger than Megumi’s, which begs the question of how her body is still intact and does not explode. Gege could probably get away with it if he claimed that Megumi’s physique had strengthened over time and could now tolerate the effects of Sukuna.
While this explains Sukuna’s interest in Megumi, it also explains why he is able to exert more influence over her than Yuji ever could due to his superior cursed manipulation skills. For my part, I can’t wait to see what Yuji does next. Could he take on Sukuna by himself, given that he is far more powerful than he was initially and has access to a variety of curse techniques? The next Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 213 promises to be a fascinating read. The next chapter of Jujutsu Kaisen, 213 (assuming no hiatus), is scheduled for publication on February 12, 2023. Based on this schedule, Chapter 213 spoilers for Jujutsu Kaisen will be available between next Wednesday (the 8th) and Friday (the 10th).
