Highlights

Yuji Itadori received powerful upgrades in Shinjuku Showdown, showing remarkable growth and potential.
Power-ups were expected given Yuji’s talent and progression, with fans not surprised by his abilities.
From Reverse Cursed Technique to Shrine Cursed Technique, Yuji showcased impressive new abilities.

As a seasoned Jujutsu Kaisen fan with countless hours spent poring over every detail of this captivating series, I must say that Yuji Itadori has truly come into his own in the latest arcs. His transformation from an unsuspecting host to a formidable force wielding the Shrine Cursed Technique is nothing short of extraordinary.

In the closing arc of the series, titled Shinjuku Showdown, Yuji Itadori experiences an enhancement of his powers. Given that this is the concluding part of the story, it’s not surprising for the main characters to receive a significant boost in abilities and experience as sorcerers. This development is in line with fan expectations.

From the very start of this captivating tale, I was destined to acquire these extraordinary power-ups, a fact that was subtly hinted at from the get-go. What truly set me apart, however, was my uncanny ability to grasp techniques at an almost supernatural speed, earning me the title of a swift learner or, in some circles, a prodigy. But it wasn’t until the climactic showdown against the malevolent King of Curses, Sukuna, that my true potential was unveiled. In that final battle, I displayed one power after another, leaving spectators in awe.

In the fierce encounter with Sukuna, not every skill that Yuji displayed was activated spontaneously. Instead, some abilities he had acquired over time during the timeskip, and these skills were deployed against Sukuna for the first time in this battle.

6 Reverse Cursed Technique

Yuji Tapped Into The Power To Heal In Shinjuku

Reverse Cursed Technique is an incredible ability in the world of JJK that allows one to heal from injuries. In the case of Yuji Itadori, he learned this technique at some point during the timeskip before the Shinjuku Showdown Arc. This ability was down to him consuming the Death Paintings number 4 to 9.

Following Yuji’s consumption, he acquired the ability to manipulate blood, which allowed him for a more efficient application of the Reverse Cursed Technique with reduced cursed energy expenditure. Remarkably skilled in wielding RCT, Yuji can endure direct attacks from Sukuna and swiftly heal any resulting damage.

5 Simple Domain

Yuji Gained The Power Of Barrier Techniques

During the gap in time, Yuji picked up another skill called Simple Domain, which he used for the first time in combat against Sukuna. It so happened that during this period, Yuji traded places with Kusakabe and honed his skills in creating barriers. In his battle with Sukuna, when Sukuna regained control of his domain, Yuji demonstrated a new shadow technique for the very first time.

In this battle scenario, Sukuna summoned a powerful domain that persisted for exactly 99 seconds, maintaining its intensity throughout. This temporary domain indiscriminately assaulted the battlefield, and remarkably, Yuji managed to endure the majority of these attacks using his own Simple Domain. Although Yuji’s domain eventually began to fracture towards the final moments, he effectively absorbed most of the impact.

4 Blood Manipulation

Yuji Can Manipulate His Blood In Battle

During the break in time, Yuji acquired the ability of Blood Manipulation by consuming Death Paintings 4 through 9. This consumption granted him access to the Blood Manipulation cursed skill, however, his command over it remains quite primitive.

Primarily, Yuji employs the tool for the reverse cursed skill, yet he’s also proficient in other talents, like Convergence, which allows him to harness Piercing Blood. However, even though he requires assistance with complex techniques including this one, his mastery over this ability will undoubtedly increase with time.

3 Shrine Cursed Technique

Yuji Can Use Cleave And Dismantle

In the Shinjuku Showdown Arc, Yuji experienced a significant enhancement – the Shrine cursed technique. This ability was foreshadowed throughout the story, with Yuji becoming Sukuna’s vessel setting the stage for his body to absorb Sukuna’s cursed energy over time. As a result, Yuji would essentially become a cursed object, allowing him to tap into Sukuna’s techniques. The fact that they are related further increased the likelihood of Yuji developing a similar technique.

During the Shinjuku Showdown, Yuji successfully executed a potent Black Flash on the King of Curses, an act that triggered his hidden powers. This power he wielded is known as the Shrine Cursed Technique, which is associated with Sukuna, the King of Curses. Yet, unlike Sukuna’s version, Yuji’s ability isn’t arbitrary; it selectively chops objects by marking them with scissor-like symbols.

2 Soul Dismantle

A Power That Targets the Soul

One potent feature of Yuji’s Shrine’s cursed skill lies in its Soul Disintegration. Just as the name implies, this involves a Disintegration aimed straight at the soul of the enemy. It’s a formidable move that even the King of Curses holds in reverence, given its destructive potential. However, successfully executing it isn’t simple; Yuji must establish physical contact with his target before he can deliver this lethal blow.

After landing, this attack has the potential to inflict lethal harm on Sukuna. Remarkably, Yuji possesses such mastery over this technique that he can direct it precisely at the boundary separating Sukuna and Megumi’s souls.

1 Domain Expansion

Yuji Can Use The Pinnacle Of Sorcery

In the clash against the King of Curses, Yuji pushed his Shrine cursed technique to its ultimate level, reaching the pinnacle of Jujutsu Sorcery. By blending his innate Shrine ability into his domain, he successfully extended his domain’s boundaries.

Regarding the specifics of how this domain expansion functions, fans are currently unaware. But, they’ll soon get a chance to witness this domain being utilized, and observe its potential effects against the King of Curses.
