Synopsis of Jujutsu Kaisen 256
The Jujutsu Kaisen series revolves around Yuji Itadoru, a kind-hearted and strong-willed high school boy. The story unfolds the secrets of a world where cursed spirits have taken birth from human negativity and become a threat to humanity. He joined the secret sorcerer’s Organization to kill a powerful curse Sukuna.
Chapter 256 of Jujutsu Kaisen highlights the Black Flash technique and why not all sorcerers can use this technique. The chapter starts with a flashback to Satoru Gojo where he got to know the reason for his inability to use Black Flash.
He can’t use the Black Flash technique due to the six eyes, his fighting style, and environmental conditions.
The chapter focuses on Yuji, Maki, Miguel, and Choso, who are concerned about Sukuna’s potential regain. Sukuan uses Black Flash on Miguel and Choso as they continue fighting Sukuna. Yuji got to hit Sukuna with the Piercing Blood and Cursed technique.
Larue hits Sukuna with some cursed technique and realizes that he can control the hearts and bodies of the people he grabs.
Later on, the chapter ends with Yuji using Black Flash on Sukuna, a cliffhanger that leaves the readers on edge as the black Flash power of Yuji is awakened, now the fight becomes more interesting and intense.
What to expect from Jujutsu Kaisen 257?
The last chapter reveals Yuji’s capability to use the Black Flash technique. The fans can expect to see the true potential of Yuji in the coming chapter where he uses the Black Flash on Sukuna.
If Yuji unlocks his true potential fans can see the expansion of the blood domain which marks an interesting moment in Shinjuku Showdown Arc.
There are not many spoilers or leaks about the upcoming chapter on social media, but fans can expect to see him master the Blood Manipulation technique and defeat Sukuna in an intense battle.
We can’t say in which direction the story will go from here on as Gege Akutami can bring the series to Uraume and Hakari’s fight or another revelation.
But one thing is sure Gege has followed its typical mode of operation and awakened Yuji’s power at the perfect time with a perfect cliffhanger.
