About Chapter 216
Is anyone anticipating the release of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 216? And we’re right here to support you! After the amazing chapter in which we discovered that Maki is still alive and not only that, but she is also far more powerful than before, and now that she has been frozen by Uraume, fans of the narrative are naturally interested in what will happen next. I’d want to start off by congratulating Gege Akutami on the release of the fifth volume of Jujutsu Kaisen. As a symbol of their accomplishment, this chapter has a beautiful cover image of Yuuji and Uta dressed properly, with a justification for why Yuuji is clutching a bunch of wild roses.
Synopsis of Jujutsu Kaisen Chapter 215
The manga’s second chapter opens off right where the first one did, with Yuuji having just struck Sukuna cleanly after Megumi had successfully lessened the quantity of cursed energy he was producing. Now that Megumi was reducing his output, Sukuna is claiming that at worst he will only have 10% of his total power, which is absurd to consider. However, if Sukuna is giving a low bar of 10%, then it means Sukuna is currently in the vicinity of that low range, which is how Yuuji was able to withstand the majority of his attacks. But, that doesn’t negate the advantages Yuuji has benefited from. Remember, Sukuna has experienced Yuuji’s might from within Yuuji’s body, so he knows it personally. As Yuuji was defeated in combat by Choso and Shibuya, Sukuna observed, “How could he lose against such a weak opponent?”. Sukuna is confident that he can defeat Yuuji despite the latter’s diminished strength because he saw that fight and all of Yuuji’s other fights firsthand and because in the previous chapter, he questioned, “Where did this increase in strength come from?” despite being aware of Yuuji’s power’s potential.
Nevertheless, when Maki appears, Sukuna fails to recognise her, and he observes that the Nue hit had no adverse effects on Maki, he realises that this opponent is strong. It is now evident that Maki was not struck down by the descending lightning strikes of the Reign of Light, but it is still unknown if she just located the perfect hiding location, or whether she managed to avoid each and every one of them.
Although this is more headcanon, I believe Taka ba’s safety makes sense considering that the colour red and blood by extension are outlawed in his curse technique. For instance, the first page showed Takaba bleeding profusely when Hazenoki shot him in the head, but the following page showed Takaba had suffered “Zero Damage,” as he had declared, and the bleeding had ceased. Even though I am aware of how much Megumi’s internal conflict hurts Sukuna, I can’t help but be impressed that Maki had the confidence and fortitude to meet Sukuna in close quarters with Yuuji. She then executes a massive power move, slamming Sukuna into the railing forcefully enough for Yuuji to use a combination to entangle him in chains and position Maki for a crushing kick.
Now, Sukuna does describe Yuuji as boring and uninteresting when he gets him entangled in the railing, and his lack of passion is a recurring motif in this chapter. In response to Yuuji’s earlier claim that Sukuna would survive any attempt to kill him, Maki questions if her Sould Liberation Sword, which can kill an opponent in a single blow, would be successful against Sukuna or whether Sukuna could use his reverse curse technique to heal his wounds. Now that I think about it, I don’t believe it can kill Sukuna because we are aware of the blade that merely slices through the soul, meaning it can cleanly slash through the body. However, unlike Idle Transfiguration, which actually modifies one’s soul and body, this is something that the reverse cursed technique cannot heal, as demonstrated a few times in the story. When defending against the Finger Bearer’s onslaught, Yuuji’s head was unexpectedly healed, revealing Sukuna to possess a sophisticated form of reverse curse method. This is because the Soul Liberation Blade just amplifies the cut’s harm without changing the soul, unlike Sukuna. There ought to have been sufficient evidence that Sukuna is naturally skilled at using the reverse curse technique; if Maki is able to make a clean cut with the Soul Liberation Blade, Sukuna could be able to instantly heal the wound.
However, let’s be honest, it’s the kind of curse, even if they did try they probably couldn’t kill him anyhow, though Yuuji agrees to kill Sukuna if it comes down to it, so I take it that Yuuji and Maki weren’t trying as hard before because they know Megumi is inside him and don’t want to kill Megumi. Here he is able to quickly swallow that pain and anguish and confront the consequences in front of him, using his rage to feed his waking power, in contrast to Shibuya where he is broken and feels helpless about his behaviour. It is evident from this chapter and the previous one that Yuuji is undergoing a conventional power growth development. However, Maki declares that they will quicken the pace of this battle, and then we see an amazing 2V1 sequence of Yuuji and Maki fighting Sakuna. Technically, this is a 3V1 sequence because Megumi is also weakening Sukuna, but I still adore this panel of Maki and Sukuna charging at each other. Yeah, this could be animated so well, I believe it’s called Sakuga Animation, but remember when Yuuji and Todo fought Hanami in the anime, and both of them were climbing along the branches in mid-air, and just that animation, it was so fluid and quick? That sequence wasn’t really shown in the manga, so MAPPA kind of added to that sequence.
