Jujutsu Kaisen 120: Much-Awaited Yuji vs Mahito Begins!

Jujutsu Kaisen is one among the best ongoing mangas. The story of Yuji Itadori and the Jujutsu world with which he has become involved in has become a fan-favorite.

Jujutsu Kaisen is currently going through the Shibuya Incident arc. In the Jujutsu Kaisen world, it is the darkest arc to date. Not only have countless characters been maimed and Gojo been sealed but Sukuna has also taken control over Yuji and brought upon total destruction.

In chapter 120 of Jujutsu Kaisen, significant developments have taken place as Nanami just got killed by Mahito. Nanami had already battled against some high-level curses, and he was already burnt out. At the very last moment, he faced Mahito. Mahito killed Nanami without batting an eyelid.

However, just before Nanami was killed, Yuji reached the scene and witnessed Nanami getting killed. He flew into a rage and attacked Mahito.

Mahito is a special grade cursed spirit born out of the humans’ fear of death. He is no doubt one of the strongest antagonists in Jujutsu Kaisen. However, it is also not a smart thing to underestimate Yuji’s strength.

Yuji and Mahito had previously fought when Yuji wanted to avenge Junpei’s death. At that time, Yuji’s physical prowess was a massive advantage. However, Mahito was trying to bring out Sukuna in the fight. Both of them were fighting neck to neck, but Nanami intervened in the battle at the end.

Since then, both Yuji and Mahito have grown stronger. If Yuji can get access to Sukuna’s powers without losing consciousness, then Mahito doesn’t have a chance in the battle.

However, Sukuna has just wreaked havoc on the city, shown it to Itadori, and then vanished. It is unlikely for him to appear again. Although, Sukuna’s actions coupled with Nanami’s demise and Gojo getting sealed are enough of the emotions that Itadori needs to channel his curse energy to its maximum potential.

From the looks of it, Yuji Itadori will be the victor of this battle, but, the tides can change any time if the other curses intervene in their battle. Now that Toji has died, we can also expect Megumi to come and help Yuji in defeating Mahito and end the cycle of hatred.

If that happens, Seto’s chances of fulfilling his ambitions will get close to 0. What do you guys think will happen? Will Yuji win or lose? Will Megumi intervene? Let me know in the comment box below.
