The latest chapter of the popular manga series Jujutsu Kaisen has revealed intriguing new details about the protagonist Yuta and his powerful cursed technique. In the climactic battle against the series’ main antagonist Sukuna, Yuta displays the ability to copy and use Sukuna’s own attacks against him.
Specifically, chapter 250 shows Yuta utilizing “Cleave,” one of Sukuna’s signature moves, after replicating Sukuna’s cursed technique. Yuta’s own cursed technique “Copy” allows him to duplicate any cursed technique he encounters and store it within his domain for later use.
This includes the unnamed cursed technique that Sukuna relies on.
The revelation that Yuta can replicate even Sukuna’s techniques raises fascinating questions. The exact conditions and limits of Yuta’s copying ability remain unclear.
However, his demonstration of copying Sukuna’s prized technique suggests Yuta may be able to counter all of Sukuna’s abilities.
With this latest development, Yuta seems poised to gain the upper hand against the formidable Sukuna.
The copying of Sukuna’s cherished cursed technique hints that Yuta could ultimately prevail in this climactic manga battle between the two powerful jujutsu sorcerers.
More revelations about the intricacies of Yuta’s technique may prove pivotal in determining the victor.
Secrets of Yuta’s Copying Ability in Jujutsu Kaisen
While the current battle in Jujutsu Kaisen is reaching its climax, the manga still holds many secrets about the intricacies of Yuta’s mysterious cursed technique.
Specifically, the conditions and limitations required for Yuta to copy other techniques remain unclear.
The series has not outright stated any firm rules governing Yuta’s copying ability.
However, chapter 179 offers clues when Yuta gains access to Uro’s technique only after his ally Rika consumes part of Uro’s body.
This implies Yuta may need Rika to ingest biological material from the target in order to replicate their technique.
If that is the case, Yuta likely had Rika consume one of Sukuna’s preserved fingers in order to copy Sukuna’s signature cursed technique.
As remnants of Sukuna’s original physical form, the fingers may provide the biological key needed for Yuta’s copying power to work on Sukuna.
The specifics of how Yuta replicates techniques could have major significance for the outcome of his confrontation with Sukuna.
More revelations about the functioning of his cursed technique may be pivotal as the suspenseful battle reaches its finale in the popular manga.
Furthermore, chapter 222 contains a clue about the missing Sukuna finger that supports the theory behind Yuta’s copying ability.
In that chapter, Sukuna suspects the unaccounted-for finger may be in Gojo’s possession.
This raises the possibility that Gojo provided the missing finger to Rika during Yuta’s special month of training leading up to the Sukuna battle.
Consuming the finger would allow Rika to enable Yuta’s copying of Sukuna’s technique, consistent with the proposed biological mechanism.
This theory also neatly explains Yuta’s cryptic claim in chapter 250 that he “cheated” in preparation for facing Sukuna.
Obtaining the secret finger from Gojo gave Yuta an advantage against Sukuna that he considers unfair.
Yuta’s Potential Game-Changer
If Rika consuming biological material is the requirement for Yuta’s copying ability, it could spell major trouble for Sukuna in their climactic battle.
With Higuruma depriving Sukuna of his martial arts technique and Yuta’s domain negating Sukuna’s extended Cleave, Sukuna’s only remaining ace seems to be his unnamed fire technique kept secret since the Shibuya incident.
However, based on the proposed mechanics of Yuta’s power, he may now also be able to replicate and use that devastating fire move along with Sukuna’s fire arrow.
This suggests Yuta could potentially counter all of Sukuna’s abilities, removing his last major advantage. While Sukuna has dominated much of the fight so far, the sorcerers have gradually worn down his cursed energy reserves.
This has set the stage for Yuta and Yuji to finally take center stage with their full capabilities on display.
