Jujutsu Kaisen is currently in the Shinjuku Showdown arc, and fans know that the story is now nearing its end. Chapter 264 of the manga introduces Yuji’s domain expansion to fans for the first time, marking a crucial moment in the series that fans have been eagerly waiting for for over four years, indicating a near end to the story.
Yuji has achieved a level where he can use the pinnacle of Jujutsu sorcery, which shows his progress. Fans are amazed by his power, but there is more to come. The capabilities of Yuji’s domain are expected to be revealed in the next chapter of JJK, creating excitement among fans.
Sukuna’s role in helping Yuji expand his domain
Yuji’s domain expansion is mainly due to his connection to Sukuna, who Gojo believed would eventually absorb the cursed energy into his body. This theory was later supported by Shoko. Fans were eagerly awaiting Yuji’s ability to acquire Sukuna’s techniques, but it was only later in the story that Yuji revealed the Shrine Curse Technique.
Yuji’s body learned quickly due to being Sukuna’s host, and his experience with these techniques made him a skilled sorcerer. Fans initially believed that Gojo’s theory was wrong, but JJK’s Shinjuku Showdown arc finally revealed Yuji’s unique cursed technique, the Shrine Cursed Technique.
Yuji uses natural powers such as the Reverse Curse and Barrier Technique, which Sukuna used due to his body’s muscle memory. He learns the Shrine Curse Technique, which differs from Sukuna’s technique in that it uses indiscriminate blows to cut down everything in its path. However, the technique remains the same, using scissor-like marks for precise hits. This knowledge forms the basis for learning about Domain Expansion.
How Yuji revealed his domain extension
In JJK Chapter 264, Yuji demonstrates his domain expansion and continuous attacks on Sukuna, revealing his sharpness ability. He is hyper-focused, and targets the King of Curses to eliminate the space between him and Megumi’s soul. Yuji’s plan to save Megumi is difficult to execute, requiring more power.
However, it is easier for him to achieve a higher level of power due to his shared body with Sukuna and his technique. Yuji has already manifested the Shrine Curse Technique and now has a domain expansion. This shows Yuji’s ability to gain more power and overcome challenges in battle.
Yuji’s ability to manifest domain expansion is attributed to Kusakabe’s teachings during the time skip. With this knowledge, Yuji can incorporate his techniques into domains, creating domain expansions, which are considered the pinnacle of Jujutsu sorcery. After various attempts to defeat the King of Curses, Yuji decides to use his own domain to defeat him.
At the end of JJK Chapter 264, Yuji forms a unique hand seal and begins a domain battle. Fans see Yuji talking to Sukuna, who appears in his body. Yuji either defeats Sukuna or else he gets a Gojo-like flashback before his death. The King of Curses is not looking good, and Yuji’s ultimate technique could deal fatal damage to him, possibly allowing Megumi to escape. Whatever the outcome, fans believe that Yuji’s ultimate technique will ultimately save Megumi.
The powers of Yuji’s domain are unknown to fans, but they can expect an exciting battle with Sukuna in JJK Chapter 265. The story promises a true culmination of the real battle against the King of Curses, which is expected to be accomplished by Yuji’s domain in the upcoming chapters. The powers of the domain expansion are expected to live up to fans’ expectations and showcase Yuji’s ascent to the highest levels of Jujutsu magic by defeating the King of Curses.
