Yuji looks down on Sukuna and gives him a chance to keep on living inside him. But Sukuna is the King of Curses, and he is enraged at the pity shown by Yuji as he evaporates into nothingness!#JJK268#JJKSpoilers#JujutsuKaisen#JujutsuKaisen268Spoilers#jujutsuKaisenSpoilerspic.twitter.com/G5phSrmkqw
Fans ofJujutsu Kaisenare left in awe as Yuji Itadori stands over the residual remnants of Sukuna, the ultimate villain in the series, as his screams of agony fill the air — Sukuna, the King of Curses, is peeled off Megumi Fushiguro’s body, and the young sorcerer is finally free from his grasp.
The imagery of Sukuna’s defeat instantly brought comparisons to the confrontation betweenYuji and Mahitoduring the Shibuya Incident Arc. It was the classic “rabbit and wolf” scene, where Yuji, who had been on the receiving end of Mahito’s torment, finally turns the tables, signifying a major shift in his resolve.

In this latest chapter, the same theme returns, but this time, it’s even more iconic. With Sukuna finally stripped from Megumi’s body, the significance of Yuji standing tall over his residual echoes those past moments, symbolizing the final breakdown of one of the most powerful antagonists in the series.
Revisiting the “Rabbit and Wolf” Scene ofJujutsu Kaisen‘s Shibuya Incident Arc
The fight between Yuji and Mahito is one of the scariest moments in Shibuya Incident Arc. The metaphor of the “rabbit and wolf,” whichGege Akutamicleverly used in that particular arc, illustrates the predator-prey dynamic between Mahito and Yuji. Since Mahito manipulated Yuji’s emotions and pushed him into progressively dire circumstances, Yuji finally fought back and turned the tables on Mahito, with the prey becoming the predator.
In the latest chapter, Akutami once again brings this concept back into play. However, this time, it’sSukuna who experiencesthe same fall from power as Mahito did. With Megumi finally freed from his torment, Sukuna’s terrifying aura is now broken, and for the first time, he is truly vulnerable and forced to experience the consequences of his actions.

This scene also highlights Yuji’s growth throughout the series, not just in terms of physical power but in his emotional and mental fortitude. And the fans are feeling goosebumps from this symbolic scene.
