Since chapter 223 of Jujutsu Kaisen In the manga, Tsukuna and Kenzaku's final battle against the evil forces begins, and for nearly 50 chapters, Jujutsu High has relentlessly tried to take down the King of Curses. Tsukuna proved to be the most powerful mage of all time as she quickly defeated some of the most powerful characters in the entire series, only her first opponent, Gozo, proved to be a match for her.

However, despite this dominance, Sukuna took a lot of damage in his fight against Gozo, so he was very weak in his later bouts. After defeating almost all the other characters Jujutsu KaisenHis exhaustion caught up with him, leading to his eventual defeat in the battle against Yuji. However, in this article, let's see how Sukuna got to this position and how she survived!

Sukuna runs The Gauntlet

How did Sukuna lose?

The final battle between Sukuna and Gojo was foreshadowed early in the series as a clash between the strongest magician of all time and the strongest magician of the modern era. Their battle certainly lived up to all the hype as both magicians showed off their unparalleled mastery of cursed techniques and control over jujutsu magic and why they were on a level apart from everyone else.

Eventually, Tsukune was able to figure out the only way to counter Infinity, which was how he killed Gozo at the end of this long and surprising battle. However, he didn't get a chance to bask in his victory as the rest of the Jujutsu High wasted no time jumping into the fray to kill the King of Curses. Through the endless attacks of the heroes and the fact that Tsukuna never had a chance to recover properly from his battle against Gojo, he was eventually separated from Megumi and disintegrated into the air before finally being defeated by Yuuji.

I'm impressed that you've taken this farce so far, Yuji Itadori. Don't underestimate me… I'm… a curse!

How Sukuna can survive:

Sukuna's eventual defeat at the hands of Yuuji was an incredible moment to witness, especially since he seemed like the most indomitable force of nature that no one could take down unless they were as powerful as Gojo. However, Yuji, who proved to be the most talented magician the series has ever presented, was underestimated by the King of Curses, due to the fact that he had learned so many advanced techniques in such a short time.

Furthermore, Sukuna underestimated Yuji in other respects as well. While he saw him as just an entitled brat who insulted jujutsu wizards, Yuji was the only person who felt any sort of connection to Tsukune due to his time in Tsukune's body and the only one of them had a relationship as family members. the left Because of this, chapter 268 of the manga shows Yuji's kindness.

Sukuna… Let's try this one more time. Not by scolding someone, but by being with them.

Yuji picks up Sukuna as her cursed form crumbles into nothing, allowing her to continue living in her body as before. Through these means, Tsukuna will continue to live but will essentially be a prisoner inside Yuji's body, unable to fulfill his wishes in the outside world and hurt people as he did in the Heian Era.

Although this gives Tsukuna an out in terms of preventing death once again, it is highly unlikely that she will accept Yuji's offer. This is because Sukuna is a character whose whole purpose is to live according to her will, no matter what. His impassioned speech to Kashimo proves as much, in which he says that living life by his own metrics and rules is the only way to do that, and that he lives the way he does because that's what he really wanted.

If he still existed within Yuji, it would act as a counter to everything he stood for, as he would essentially be a prisoner unable to live the life he wanted. There is no indication that Sukuna is afraid of dying, so she would rather get out on her own terms than live in captivity.

Moreover, it can still happen. While he was disintegrating, he was never seen fully disintegrating, instead cutting to a last-minute shot of Yuji's face as he gave Tsukuna the option to live if he wanted to. Although highly unlikely, there is still doubt about Sukuna's ultimate fate as he could have taken Yuji up on his offer. Besides, Sukuna has no other way to survive.
