The realm of Jujutsu Kaisen has always been fraught with unexpected turns and heart-stopping revelations. As the dust settled from Satoru Gojo’s unforeseen departure, fans are yet again met with another unnerving twist. Sukuna, the malevolent Curse spirit, has made his alarming reappearance. And this time, it’s in his true form, signifying dire consequences for another fan-favorite, Megumi Fushiguro.
Sukuna’s Foreboding Transformation
The latest chapter, Jujutsu Kaisen #237, focuses intently on the electrifying duel between Sukuna and Hajime Kashimo. Yet, it’s the climactic conclusion that has left fans gasping.
Sukuna, once seen possessing a modified Megumi physique, is now seen in his truest, original form—a sight once only glimpsed in past flashbacks. This chilling transformation has sparked a wildfire of speculations, most of which suggest that Megumi’s existence might have come to a tragic end, with Sukuna permanently erasing his soul.
The Hunt for the Perfect Vessel
For the seasoned Jujutsu Kaisen aficionado, Sukuna’s sinister intentions have always been lurking in the backdrop. Fans believed that Yuji Itadori, with his unmatched mental fortitude, would be the primary target. However, Sukuna’s quest for dominance led him to a different host, one more attuned to his malefic needs – Megumi Fushiguro.
Megumi’s elevated sorcery prowess, notably his Ten Shadows Technique, made him an ideal candidate for Sukuna’s wicked plans. The synergy between Megumi’s innate abilities and Sukuna’s dark powers created a daunting union that few could challenge. Yet, fans clung to hope, believing that Megumi’s indomitable spirit could hold its own against Sukuna’s oppressive force.

The Fall of a Hero
Alas, hope can be a fickle ally. Megumi’s battle against Sukuna’s influence has been a tumultuous journey, marked by moments of courage and despair.
When Sukuna malevolently used Megumi’s Ten Shadow Technique against Yorozu, the emotional trauma was palpable. But the breaking point might have come with the loss of Satoru Gojo. Witnessing the misuse of his technique to harm someone he held dear was perhaps the final blow to Megumi’s spirit.
As Sukuna now flaunts his original form, the ominous implications cannot be ignored. Jujutsu Kaisen has never shied away from taking audacious narrative risks, even if it means the demise of beloved characters. With this latest development, the series hints at a tragic fate for Megumi Fushiguro.
A Gloom-Filled Future
As the narrative unfolds, Jujutsu Kaisen fans are left grappling with the potential loss of yet another cherished character. Sukuna’s resurgence marks a daunting phase for the Jujutsu sorcery community. As the story continues its unpredictable trajectory, one thing is certain: the world of Jujutsu Kaisen will never be the same again.
