Hello, everyone! I’m KENTA, a huge manga fan! Today, I went to the Pokémon Center in Kyoto for the first time in a while. After much deliberation, I ended up buying a giant Zamazenta plushie. I’m so happy!
Now, in this article, I’m going to dive into the latest chapter of “Jujutsu Kaisen” and explore the true roles of the Reverse Cursed Technique and Choso. We’ll especially focus on the roles of “Gojo Satoru,” “Ieiri Shoko,” and “Sukuna” from a fresh perspective. By reading this, you’re sure to get even more hooked on Jujutsu Kaisen!
What is the Reverse Cursed Technique?
First, let’s review the basics of the Reverse Cursed Technique. This technique involves using cursed energy, which is negative energy derived from negative emotions, to heal the body. While ordinary cursed energy can strengthen the body, it cannot be used for healing. However, by combining negative energies, positive energy is generated, resulting in the Reverse Cursed Technique.
The positive energy produced by the Reverse Cursed Technique is used not only for healing but also for techniques like Gojo Satoru’s “Red.” This technique, known as Cursed Technique Reversal, harnesses the reverse nature of positive energy. Although similar, Reverse Cursed Technique and Cursed Technique Reversal serve different purposes.
The Difficulty and Limitations of the Reverse Cursed Technique
The Reverse Cursed Technique is a highly advanced skill, making it extremely difficult to master. Currently, characters in the series who can use the Reverse Cursed Technique include Gojo Satoru, Ieiri Shoko, Yuji Itadori, Choso, Yuta Okkotsu, Kinji Hakari, Uraume, Yuki Tsukumo, Sukuna, and Maki Zen’in. Among them, only a few can perform the “Reverse Output,” which involves healing others.
According to Ieiri Shoko, there are two main reasons why Reverse Output is so challenging. First, the process of healing others differs significantly from healing oneself. Second, the recipient may exhibit rejection reactions. These factors make individuals capable of Reverse Output very rare.
Choso’s Unique Physiology and the Reverse Cursed Technique
Now, let’s take a closer look at Choso, the main focus of this analysis. Choso is one of the Cursed Womb: Death Paintings, a hybrid of a cursed spirit and a human. This unique physiology allows him to convert cursed energy into blood. We’ll explore how this ability relates to the Reverse Cursed Technique.
According to the information revealed in chapter 258, Choso and Yuji Itadori, both hybrids of cursed spirits and humans, have a unique ability to convert cursed energy into blood. This trait makes mastering the Reverse Cursed Technique easier and reduces the significant cursed energy consumption usually required.
Practical Examples of the Reverse Cursed Technique
Here, we’ll present a few practical examples of the Reverse Cursed Technique. First up is Ieiri Shoko. Ieiri has been adept at Reverse Output since her days at Jujutsu High, explaining the technique to Gojo Satoru in a very intuitive manner. She can perform medical treatments based on her extensive medical knowledge, making her highly skilled.
Next, we have Yuta Okkotsu. When he first used the Reverse Cursed Technique, he instantly healed severe injuries suffered by Maki Zen’in, Toge Inumaki, and Panda. However, during the Shibuya Incident, he couldn’t regenerate the lost arms of Inumaki or the arm Sukuna devoured from Angel. This indicates that while he can heal severe injuries, he cannot regenerate lost limbs yet.
Finally, there’s Sukuna. Sukuna is extremely proficient with the Reverse Cursed Technique. During the Shibuya Incident, he immediately healed himself after Gojo Satoru’s cursed energy destroyed his brain. His precision with the technique is among the best in the series.
Choso’s Role and Potential
Let’s analyze Choso’s role with the Reverse Cursed Technique. Choso can heal using his blood, making him an incredibly useful Reverse Output practitioner. He is expected to play a crucial role as a support healer on the battlefield, aiding other sorcerers.
Additionally, Choso’s technique, “Blood Manipulation,” excels in long-range attacks, providing valuable support as a long-range attacker. This dual capability enables Choso to excel both in combat and healing.
Choso and Yuji’s Collaboration
Lastly, let’s consider the collaboration between Choso and Yuji. As blood relatives and hybrids of cursed spirits and humans, Choso and Yuji can support each other, enhancing their survival rates on the battlefield. The prospect of Choso aiding Yuji in future battles is particularly exciting.
There is also the possibility of Choso allowing himself to be absorbed by Yuji, potentially leading to Yuji’s power-up and enhanced recovery abilities. This would make Yuji an even more formidable sorcerer, better prepared for the battle against Sukuna.
