Hello, I’m KENTA, a Japanese who loves manga! This time, I would like to share with you a discussion on the latest episode of “Jujutsu Kaisen”. The title is, “Why can’t Shukuuso touch Torana?” This is “Why can’t Shutsusune touch Torazume? This discussion may reveal the surprising truth of episode 246. Please read with excitement!
The curious description of episode 246
Did you see episode 246 of “Jujutsu Kaisen” where Higuruma was being dragged around by Sukuna? It was natural that Sukuna would try to take down Higuruma first, since the kosen group had also planned their strategy around Higuruma. However, there was a description in episode 246 that bothered me. It is the scene where Sukuna seems to be avoiding Itadori. Some of you may wonder if such a scene was depicted. So, in this article, we will discuss the reason why Sukuna cannot touch Itadori.
Itadori’s New Power
The Power of the Arm to Interfere with the Soul First, let us discuss Itadori’s new power. In episode 244 of Jujutsu Kaisen, Itadori is attacked by Sukuna. At that time, Sukuna was guarding Itadori’s fist perfectly with his arm, but Sukuna was described as feeling his body wobble and as if he was taking damage. This description was not seen in the battle immediately after Sukuna took Fushiguro Megumi’s body in the 24th volume of the book, so it is believed to be Itadori’s newly acquired power.
What is this new power? It is the power of Itadori’s arm. This arm, which first appeared in episode 238 of “Jujutsu Kaisen,” is said by some to resemble the hand of an ogre from “Jigoku Sensei Nube-” (Jigoku Sensei Nube-). The Oni no Te has the ability to interfere with souls, in addition to dispelling demons. In other words, Itadori’s new arm is thought to have the power to attack the soul.
Reasons why Sukuna avoids
Fear of the power to attack the soul The reason why Sukuna avoids Itadori is because of this power to attack the soul; Sukuna is afraid that his soul will be attacked. Sukuna knew that the kosen side was trying to forfeit the jutsu formula and activate the executioner’s sword by hitting him with the “Judgment of Higuruma. Therefore, Sukuna avoided direct attacks against Itadori and resorted to slashing with the jutsu.
However, Itadori has the power to attack only Sukuna’s soul, so Sukuna avoids approaching Itadori; Sukuna must believe that Itadori’s new power is something that can reach his own life.
The Kosen group’s strategy and Sukuna’s reaction
Higuruma’s Role and Sukuna’s Response The strategy of the kosen-gumi was to apply the “Judgment of Higuruma” against Sukuna in order to confiscate the jutsu and activate the executioner’s sword. However, Sukuna was aware of this strategy and countered by leaving Higuruma alone; Sukuna saw Higuruma’s high talent and thought that his first priority was to defeat him.
Sukuna threw Higuruma far away to avoid Itadori’s approach. In this way, he tried to escape Itadori. However, Itadori followed Sukuna and made sure that Higuruma was not left alone.
Finally
The Future of Sukuna and Itadori We have discussed why Sukuna cannot touch Itadori; Sukuna fears Itadori’s new power and avoids approaching him; Sukuna is wary of Itadori’s power because the power of Itadori’s arm is an attack on his soul; Sukuna is also wary of Itadori’s power because Itadori’s arm is an attack on his soul, which is why Sukuna is not able to touch Itadori.
It will be very interesting to see how the battle between Itadori and Sukuna will progress. And it will be interesting to see if the Kosen group’s strategy will be successful.
